Becoming a Witch in Another World
Chapter 17: Friends and Witches
The previously clear sky had now been covered in black clouds, before long the grains of water were falling down on the dry dust below.
When everyone was in their house, a black-haired girl hugged her knees in a cardboard box she covered with plastic.
Next to her left eye was covered by the bangs of her hair even so, everyone knew she was a beautiful little girl.
This girl has no home or parents, she is just a normal girl who finds herself in a world without luck, a world that is cruel to her.
A cold and hunger filled his entire body.
As the rain stopped he started scavenging for trash then returned to the precious box that could be considered a house by him.
Although it was only a piece of bread, it was enough to fill his stomach that had not eaten since yesterday, when he was contemplating his fate someone suddenly called out to him from the outside.
"You come out, until when are you in this sad place?"
The man had blond hair cut off by the shoulder, his body smaller than a black haired girl, but he was definitely braver than anyone.
"What do you want from me?"
"I've seen you all this time just curled up in a place like this. Be my friend and be with the foxes of this cruel world."
"Why are you taking me?"
"You don't see, we're the only ones still alive in this place."
"Eh?"
The blonde girl sighed softly.
"Dragon of destruction has ravaged this city, in other words there is nothing more that these inhabitants can do to rebuild the city, so they cut off?"
"Heliet Ladeoffa."
"What name is that? My name is Vivia Legal, you can call me Vivia."
Vivia has blonde hair and has a tomboyish personality, while Heliet who has black hair has a soft personality, both have many differences even so the two decide to be friends.
Just touching the cover, dust immediately splashed into the air.
"Look at this. Cool isn't it, in here all that you need in this world we can learn here, magic techniques, Alchemists, as well as various general knowledge, you must love it."
Heliet tilted her face.
"I can't read."
"Look down, I'll teach you to read until you'll be good at everything."
They spent time in the library. To eat they will look for fish in the river or fruits in the forest.
Vivia was standing on a rock near the river.
"Listen Heliet, someday I will become a great knight and then become the greatest dragon slayer in the world, even the dragon of destruction I will finish with my own hands" vivia said as she held the wooden sword in her hand.
While Heliet just sat leaning against a tree peeked at him from the book he read.
"If you want to be a knight, you better be an adventurer first."
"Why should I do it?" ask Vivia.
"Experience is the best teacher, so you can get stronger quickly."
"Right, then I'll be an adventurer first, until then we can definitely get out of here."
"That's for sure."
A few days later, unexpectedly, a witch visited the city, wearing a pointy hat and a magician's robe that matched her, in her hand she carried a wand with an arch at the end.
He walks among the destroyed houses and finds Heliet and Vivia practicing magic on the edge of town.
"Who's there?" heliet asked, looking back.
"Known yah, my name is Meliana, are you guys practicing magic?"
