A Misunderstood Mentor

Episode 185: Bolt Mountain and the Takumi Family

"Nh? Cha-chumi, where are you?" Are you going somewhere? "

Yeah, a bit. Find what you're looking for.

After finishing my training with Alice, I decided to spend a few hours until dinner looking for her pet.

What kind of pets are you talking about?

"No, I'm not sure about that."

”You don't know what to look for????”

Yeah, I don't know.

Alice and I stared at each other in a friendly way.

It was a request from "She" to find a pet.

But she couldn't remember exactly what kind of pet it was.

"When I was in the other world, you were always there for me. You were supposed to follow me when you came over here, but I got lost. And from the moment I left, I couldn't recognize it anymore."

Can't even the perfect 'girlfriend' recognize it?

No matter what I think, I'm not a normal pet.

Well, it was a pretty tricky mission, but you turned Karuna back into a magic sword, and I did what I had to do.

“Has Alice seen any other suspicious animals around here that you haven't seen before?”

"Hey, Mai, slow down!"

"Huh!?"

I heard about it at the source but I got an unexpected reply.

"Where did you see that?" What kind of guy is that? "

"Nhh, hey. Ah, there you go!"

"Ngh!!"

Looking at Alice's thumping fingers, there was certainly a suspicious animal there that I had never seen before.

Mm-hmm?

"Yeah, no, Babimo. It's not rice yet."

MKYUNG

No, I'm disappointed and I'm leaving with you, Babimo.

Are you going to be a baby?

It's our pet.

I see.

Instead of not being able to recognize the existence, I am insisting that sometimes it gets bigger, and that this is also the case.

That's right, I don't think she's anywhere nearby.

I mean, I can't go looking for it without thinking about it, so I have no choice but to find a way to take it first.

No, Tak-kun, I may be unexpectedly nearby.

Huh? Really?

Since returning to the Demon Sword, Karuna had been searching for signs of her surroundings.

Maybe you felt something, Karuna?

It's on the contrary, Taku-kun. I don't feel anything too much. It's like somebody's interfering with something you don't want to find. "

"Isn't that really just no one?"

Hmm, I think it's coming. I was told it was a good thing, but there's something uncomfortable about it. There's no sign of it, but it's like that. "

Karuna, who had become a demon sword, was more sensitive to the flow of power than anyone else because she could suck away the power of others.

If Karuna feels uncomfortable, maybe she's really close.

"Alright, let's ask Nuruhachi and Leia." Karuna, just keep looking for signs. "

When it comes to makashi, I will definitely find it by expanding the scope of exploration. Tak-kun is tired from his training, resting for a while. "

Indeed, with the addition of Nuruhachi's magic and Leia's miracle to Karuna's perception, I would have been the only one left.

"No, I'll look for it with you."

Still, I didn't feel like skipping the search for my pet.

"She" didn't ask anyone, she bothered to ask me.

Maybe I can do what she asked me to do. When I saw her non-organic smile, I wondered why.

"Arisushimo, Arisushimo, Shushi"

Thank you, Alice. All right, let's go a little further today.

Sniffing Alice's head, he grinned joyfully.

"Ta-kun, my head is twitching!" I'll do my best. "

I wonder where my head is.

When I asked, I was going to get angry, so I went around the tip of the mound I was holding.

Nahhh!

Oops, it looks like he stroked my head.

I asked Nuruhachi, Leia, and Babimo to start a massive search for pets.

Karuna and Alice climbed the mountain, and Nurhachi, Leia, and Babimo descended the mountain and explored all of Mount Bolt.

"Ah, Takumi-san, let's go to the village at the foot to buy exploration goods." Don't you think it's better to have a net or a cage or something? "

"Yeah, I don't need anything." Because you can use the series for the time being. Don't make it any more confusing. "

”Nhhhhhhh”

Leia was disappointed.

"Takumi has never climbed near the top." There are also big beasts, so shall we change the bees? "

"It's okay. You can also use magic and demons." I've gotten a lot of strength, too. "

When I came to this mountain more than 10 years ago, I had no choice but to run away if Bear attacked me. I think we can probably win the battle now. I'm a little scared, though.

"Well then, everyone, let's explore until the sun goes down." If you feel unsafe even if you discover it, please come back without capturing it. "

It's not just a pet, it's a 'girlfriend' pet.

I can't imagine what kind of power I have.

Don't worry, Tak-kun, we'll protect you.

Arishiko, I'm so sorry.

No one was alarmed.

However, despite the challenge in a complete system, no one returned as a person even when the sun went down.
