"My reason for leaving home?"
To the Hero's inquiry, the Little Girl pondered for a moment, candidly providing an answer.
"Celebrate your father's birthday?" Hearing the Little Girl's response, the Hero was slightly taken aback.
"Yeah, you don't know—after I start talking," the Little Girl's words suddenly flowed incessantly.

The Hero listened attentively.
According to the Little Girl, she was born in the largest city on the Border and is the daughter of the Border City Lord.
But when she reached the age to attend school, her father sent her to the inland Capital.
And those few young Guards who followed her were actually Nobles or military descendants from the Border.
While serving as her Guards, they also undertook foundational studies at the Officer Academy in the Capital, preparing to become members of the Border Sergeant in the future.
"...I see, your father is the Border Count, an impressive figure indeed." The Hero nodded in understanding.
Upon hearing this, the Little Girl, feeling a bit shy but also proud, puffed up her chest.
[Direction of the Border (Northeast Southwest)]
D36=d36(11)=11
The Border is located to the southeast of the Kingdom, beyond the village she was heading for, after an even longer journey.
As the youngest daughter of the Wu family, the Hero understood, even without serious study, how dangerous the Border could be.
The closer to the center, the more prosperous the area; the further to the edge, the more desolate. This rule of civilization's development also applied to the Kingdom the Hero came from.
Most humans living beyond the Border were uncivilized Subhumans.
Moreover, it is said that Intermediate and even High-tier Magic Creatures roam everywhere, and there are even legends of Dragons and Phoenixes.
It is a forbidden area for civilization, filled with frenzied Magic Element, with countless Magic Creatures competing for their territory on that land.
Historically, there have been several Arcane Surges beyond the Border, sweeping towards the country with waves of destruction.
And it was the solid defensive line built at a high cost by the Border territory that stopped them time and time again.
There, the Kingdom's Warriors were always ready, prepared to defend the Kingdom's peace with their lives.
For the Hero who is only thinking about Hunting Goblins, it is unimaginable because Goblins are probably less significant than weeds at the Border.
"But are you really going to such a distant place with just a few Guards? Is that alright?"
The Hero was a bit concerned.
[Days left to reach the Border]
D10+2=d10(10)+2=12
From here, even if everything goes smoothly, it would take a full twelve days for the Chocobo to reach the Border.
And since plans often change faster than one can enact them when traveling, the Little Girl likely still faces over half a month's journey,
which is without doubt an extremely arduous and even dangerous trial for such a young girl.
To the Hero's concern, the Little Girl nodded firmly and then shook her head.
"It's okay, it's tough, but it's a decision I made myself.
"I've already sent a letter before departure; the letter travels faster than we do, so as long as I reach the Border, my father will send someone to pick me up.
"I may not have seen him for a long time, but he hasn't seen me for a long time either.
"So no matter what, I want to wish him a 'Happy Birthday' in person! Even if I have to return right after saying it, it's okay!"
Hearing the Little Girl's bold words, the few Guards who were busy paused for a moment and then smiled.
For them, the Little Girl is not only the Noble daughter that they serve but probably also like a younger sister.
Otherwise, they would not have risked severe punishment to take her on the return journey.
Perhaps the Little Girl's thoughts are naïve, but her firm belief in the bond between her and her father makes her shine bright in the eyes of the Hero.
"Is that so? You're a good child." The Hero reached out and unconsciously stroked the Little Girl's hair.
The feel of her black hair was as smooth as satin, and not even the hardship of the journey could diminish the girl's innate nobility.
"Hehe."
Feeling the long-missed gentle touch on her head, the Little Girl smiled shyly.
The two, who had now grown closer, huddled together and chatted about all sorts of things, and time quietly slipped by...
[Hero's Luck (Nothing happens for the day if above 1)]

[Status of the Chocobo (Feathers falling off -30, Still alive +30, 50+ can run a bit)]
D40+30=d40(28)+30=58
[Will we make it to the station?]
1. Yes
2. No ♛
D2=d2(2)=2
→☆→☆→☆→✧←★←★←★←
"Alright, alright, I'll give you the best feed at the station, enough to fill you up! So let's run just for this half of the day, half a day!"
After resting at the temporary camp until the afternoon, the two disheartened Chocobos finally caught their breath.
The coachman reassured them zealously while re-harnessing the thinly feathered Chocobo.
Although the White Snake had been gone for a while, the temperature nearby was still lower than normal, as if winter had come early.
Naturally, it would be better to make it to the station than to bivouac here in the open. Even if the station can't be reached, it's best to move on a bit further before setting up camp.
