Filo’s name is Filo! While pulling a carriage, Filo travels to various places with Master and Raphtalia-onee-chan!
Today… Umm, Master is making medicine at an inn in a lively town. Why does he have a troubled face?
“Hmm…” Master is groaning with his arms crossed.
“What happened~?”
“Hmm? Ah, Filo. No, you don’t have to worry about it.”
“Eeeh! What is it! Tell me~!”
“Filo, don’t trouble Naofumi-sama,” Raphtalia-oneechan says and warns Filo.
“She must be at the age where her curiosity is acting up. It can’t be helped, I’ll tell you. I’ve run out of ingredients for medicine.”
Master was making medicine while reading a book, but it seems there weren’t enough materials for him to use.
“Tomorrow we have to go to a village where a plague is spreading, right?”
“In that case, there wouldn’t even be enough time for us to gather more of them nearby. What should we do?”
“It is in moments like this where we can choose to buy from the apothecary, even in small amounts. There are several stores around the area anyway, we can just buy them there.”
Hearing that story, Filo thought it was an opportunity. If Filo buys what Master wants, Filo will get compliments!
When Raphtalia-onee-chan was asked to buy something the other day, she was praised!
“Filo will go shopping, so please wait for me~”
“Huh? What are you talking about?”
“That’s right, Filo. Making you go on an errand is…”
“Boo! Raphtalia-onee-chan, you think Filo can’t do anything!”
Even though she’s just slightly older than Filo, Onee-chan always tells Filo that she can’t do this or that. Even Filo can bring something that Master wants.
“It’s not like that, but people have things they can and can’t do…”
“Filo can do it, Filo can do it, Filo can do it!” When Filo said that, Master made an annoyed expression.
“Arggh! Enough! You’re noisy! I get it already. Here, you can go on an errand.”
“Eh? Naofumi-sama, are you going to let Filo go?”
“It’s troublesome if she continues to make a fuss like this. I’ll keep it to the point where it doesn’t matter if she fails.”
“Yay~!”
Master gave Filo some brown money.
“Take this, go to the nearby apothecary, and buy a medicinal herb called Lutena.”
“Okay! Off Filo goes~!”
Filo opens the door of the inn and jumps out.
—
“Lu Lu Lu~tena~”
Filo’s skipping to the apothecary to buy the medicinal herbs that Master asked for!
Filo reached the apothecary in no time. Filo can tell because it smells like the grass that Master always plays with.
“Lutena please~!”
“Lutena? Unfortunately, it’s out of stock today.”
“Eeh…”
“I’m sorry, miss. I usually have them, but they’ve been selling a lot lately.”
“Is that so…”
Come to think of it, Master said that there are many illnesses in the area. But I was told that there are several apothecaries around here, so it’s okay!
“Maybe other apothecaries still have it?”
“Yes! Thank you very much!” Filo lowered her head and started running.
—
After that, Filo was looking for an apothecary, and found something that smelled delicious. Heading in that direction, Filo finds someone making skewered meat.
“Tenalu, Tenalu, Tenalu~”
“Skewered meat is cheap today!”
Uh… Filo is hungry.
Filo was captivated by the food on the stall.
“Welcome! Welcome!” The shopkeeper is calling.
Hmm… The meat smells good… But FIlo’s on an errand now!.
It’s dripping, making a sizzling sound, smells good, and it’s dripping fat on the charcoal…
Filo stares at the meat while salivating.
“Lunu… Naru… Luna… sluuurp…”
“Uh-uhm…”
Passers-by looked at Filo and the food stalls alternately.
“W-would you like one?”
“Really!?”
“Y-yeah, this is a special occasion because this one is overcooked.”
“Thank you~!”
Filo got meat from the stall and stuffed her cheeks. It has a sweet and salty taste and is very delicious. But Master’s food is way better!
“You eat well, miss. But why did you come to town? Buying something?”
“Yeah! Slurp slurp please!”
“Huh?”
… What kind of shop was it? Uh… I forgot. That’s why I asked.
“Grass please!”
“Sorry, we don’t sell grass.”
“Is that so? It’s a strange grass. Filo wants it cheap!”
“If that’s the case, why don’t you go to the mountain village and find out?”
“Okay. Thank you very much!”
Filo left the shop and started running towards the mountain. Having transformed into Filo’s true form, Filo thinks she’d be able to get there soon..
“S-someone please save me!” As Filo climbed the mountain, a scream came from somewhere.
“Okay!”
It looks like the girl was about to be attacked by a semi-transparent, jiggly creature.
“Take this!” When Filo kicked it with all her strength, the semi-transparent creature splattered.
“Are you okay?”
“Eh, ah, yes! That figure is… are you perhaps the Heavenly Fowl?”
“Yeah! It’s Filo!”
“Th-thank you very much!”
“By the way, what’s wrong? Is it not dangerous being on a mountain like this?”
Filo is pretty sure there was a village nearby, but what’s going on?
“Th-that is, slimes suddenly appeared in the village, and the people of the village are desperately fighting back… they’re quite tough… so we’re going to a nearby town to request for support, but we were chased by a monster.”
“Is that so~ Then Filo will do her best~!”
Filo knows. If you help someone in need, you can get a reward. Master always gets rewards after all.
“So give Filo a reward for it!”
“O-okay!”
“Then get on Filo!”
“Eh, ah, wait a minute. WAAAAAAHHHH!” Filo put the girl on Filo’s back and started running.
—
“Take this!” When we arrived in the village, the villagers were desperately fighting a large, semi-transparent monster.
That’s why Filo gave the monster a flying kick. At first, it bounced off, but when Filo kicked the sphere inside with full strength, it splattered.
“Filo wins!”
“N-not yet!”
“Eeh…”
Semi-transparent monsters are gathering together. But somehow, Filo knows. Filo thinks it’s only clones here, and the real one is lurking in the nearby bushes.
“Here!” Filo rushed into the bush and ate a small moving slime. It’s squishy and delicious.
Then the semi-transparent monster popped and stopped moving.
“Th-thank you very much, oh Great Heavenly Fowl… Um, what about sir Saint?”
“Master’s waiting at the inn. More than that, please give me a reward! Grass is good.”
“Grass…? If it’s that, then it is in the warehouse, so please check it out.”
The villagers brought a lot of grass from the warehouse.
“Thank you very much, oh Great Heavenly Fowl.”
“Yeah. See you later.”
Filo received a lot of grass and went back to Master.
—
“Filo’s home~”
“You’re late! How long have you been walking around?” Master, scolded Filo when she returned.
“Eeh~ But…”
“I already let Raphtalia run the errand, so it’s all taken care of now.”
“Eeh…”
“Well, it seems like you were trying to do your best for me, so it’s fine. I’ve made some food for you. Only for this one time, alright?”
“Yay~!”
Filo reaches out and begins to eat the feast prepared by Master. Yup, Master’s food is definitely the most delicious!
“So it was a failure after all.”
“Well, I’ll acknowledge her wish to help me at the very least.”
“Yes. Such feelings are indeed important.”
“That Filo… what did she bring anyway? Hey… aren’t these medicinal herbs of pretty decent quality?”
“Ah, Master, here’s the money back!”
“Why do you still have the money… Didn’t you buy these herbs? But then, how else did you get them?”
“You see, Filo whooshed, and then baaamed!”
“Yeah, I don’t understand. It’s Filo, so I doubt it’s stolen… Anyway, well done,” Master rubs Filo’s hair.
Thus, Filo’s errand has ended!
