Chapter 6

I do not know how many minutes Sushi has been running. But I could feel that he was anxious and he sped up his pace as if he was chasing someone and avoiding them.

I wanted to ask him if he was worried about something but I didn't. I remained silent and felt. In the minutes that passed, my feeling gradually eased and my fear decreased.

Maybe, if Sushi wasn't by my side, the creatures here would have attacked me earlier. Somehow, the forest beast recognizes him as one of them that's why no one is attacking us.
