Didn't Plan to Become a Companion (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 103

Upon hearing the news that an oracle had been delivered, he immediately pushed his own wheelchair out the door.

It was a day earlier than he remembered, but perhaps his memory itself was flawed. Returning to the past was akin to navigating an unknown world guided only by one’s solitary recollections.
