The Cait Sith Island

As waves rhythmically rocked our boat, I couldn’t take my eyes off the horizon shimmering with golden, sparkling sunshine. Not too long ago, sights and adventures like this had been nothing more than a daydream to me. If I had married Ignacia, my whole life would have been spent serving Farblume. It wasn’t that I had anything against my country, but now the thought of living life like that was unbearable. Even the thought of my ex-fiancé couldn’t sour my mood today, though.

I used to be the villainess in someone else’s story. Just as the prince was about to break off his engagement with me, I’d regained the memories of my past life—the life of a Japanese woman obsessed with Reas, an MMO that took place in the world I now lived in. Happily exiled from Farblume, I was now living my adventuring life to the fullest. There was no way to overstate just how much I enjoyed my newfound freedom.

After leaving Farblume, I’d switched jobs from Dark Mage to Healer in the neighboring Sacred Land of Erenzi. There, I’d met Frey, the Hero, and her party mates: Luna, Lina, and Torte. After I guided them through the Paradise of Erungoa, they’d invited me to tag along for one more adventure.

My heart seemed to beat faster and faster as the boat continued to glide toward that shimmering horizon. Why? someone might have asked, and I would have shouted my answer to the open sea: We were on our way to Cattora, the island of the Cait Sith!

I can’t wait to see the Cait Sith village! Our objective as a party was to cure Torte’s sister using the rare Paradise Dew we’d harvested from the Paradise of Erungoa.

I didn’t even want to think about how ridiculously wide my grin must have been, but there was nothing I could do but continue to count the minutes until we reached the island—that island right there!

Leaning over the bow of the ship, I pointed ahead. “Look! An island! Is that your home, Torte?!”

“Yep! The Cait Sith island is purright ahead!”

Overcome with excitement, I nearly toppled over the railing. I flailed to regain my balance, and if not for Frey’s quick rescue, I would have gone overboard. My Hero!

“Calm down, Sharon... I didn’t realize you were looking forward to this so much.”

“Looking forward to it is an understatement... Seeing the Cait Sith village is pretty much a lifelong dream of mine!” I exclaimed.

“A-All right,” Frey said. She sounded a little taken aback, but I couldn’t contain my longing for all the wonderful sights and adventures this world had to offer.

I sat back up and took in the island fast approaching—it wasn’t too big, and it had some distinctive curves. Is it shaped like a cat’s paw? If only I could see it from a bird’s-eye view. Alas, I had no means of flight yet. Once I raised my level, there should be a few options available to me... Maybe becoming the Holy Maiden would allow me to fly unassisted.

“We’re about to dock,” Lina said, watching the waves. “Let me give you the rundown, Sharon, since it’s your first time. The boat’s going to dock at a field a short distance from the actual village. There are some monsters there, but none of them are threatening.”

“Got it!” We’d have to traverse the field before entering the village. That much wasn’t surprising.

“We never struggle to go through it, and your backup will make it all the easier,” said Luna.

I tightened my fist in response. “I won’t let you down.”

“I’m counting on it.” Luna smiled with a sparkle in her eye. Apparently, she was a fan of my style of supporting—probably because my Strengthen Skill directly helped out the back line. As a Wizard, Luna didn’t have as much stamina as the rest of the party.

Pretty soon, our boat at last landed at the Cait Sith island. We’d sailed up to the dock—which was a generous description for the rickety string of logs tied together, many of which were clearly rotten. It’s not going to break on us, is it?

With a fresh gust of wind, the world turned golden, the color nearly swallowing me whole. “Wow!” I blurted, almost forgetting to breathe. The field we were about to cross was a field full of cattails! Endless rows of the fluffy grass carpeted the ground, their golden ears glimmering as the breeze shook them.

“My thoughts exactly!” Frey proudly said. “This beautiful field never loses its luster!”

“I bet...!” I said, my voice shaking from the grandeur of the view. I almost wanted to weave a lei of cattails and wear it around my neck to commemorate this moment.

“I’m glad you like what you see, Sharon,” Torte purred. “Now I’m going to tie up the boat—don’t move a whisker.”

“You got it!” I called back, eyes still glued to the field of gold.

As soon as Torte secured the ropes, I jumped off the boat and onto the ground. The soil was softer than I’d expected, but I liked to think no one else noticed that I nearly lost my balance and ate a face full of cattail. The grass grew so thickly that I couldn’t see much of the ground below. Now this was what I’d call “the great outdoors.”

“My heart won’t stop pounding...” I said, tempted to start counting prime numbers to calm myself down.

“It’s not that spectacular.” Torte trilled a chuckle from atop the boat.

This was serious business to me, though. I wasn’t going to leave a single rock on this whole island unturned. A Transportation Gate in the village would let me come back here anytime—I’d have to look for that. There was so much to do!

“Sharon, can you take another step already? You’re holding up the line,” Frey said, and the rest of the party pushed past me to disembark, cutting short my relishing of this momentous occasion.

Right. There are monsters here, I realized. Even though I was only level 17, I’d learned enough supporting Skills to serve as an effective Healer for their party. The only downside of me tagging along with them was that they were too many levels above me—I wouldn’t get EXP from any of their kills.

“Strengthen to start with... And Goddess’s Protection on you, Lina, since you’re scouting ahead. I’ll add on what we need as monsters show up,” I announced.

“Thank you.”

“Thank you so meowch.”

I returned the party’s thanks with a smile and held my staff tight. My knowledge of everything Cait Sith was limited to what I’d encountered during one special event when I’d played Reas. It was very much possible for me to encounter a monster I’d never seen before. The thought kind of terrified me, but Luna had said that the monsters here weren’t too much of a threat. All I’d have to do was stay calm and use the appropriate Skills. Odds were, I wouldn’t even need to improvise any clever use of my Skills.

Just as I took a deep breath, Lina called from the head of our formation. “We’re going into combat.”

Rustling came from the grass farther ahead, drawing my attention to it. Soon, a cat monster jumped out of the cattails.

O! M! G! So kawaii! This monster was stupid cute. I blew out a breath, lest I get swept up in the cuteness overload. Unlike the half-human-looking Cait Sith, this monster looked just like a house cat, except it walked...
