Number one.

- Mr. Kite. No matter how much you love animals, I think animals hate you.

When I was in elementary school, I was entrusted with animal husbandry.

It has been a woman of the same age who can't even remember her name, but the words are still deeply engraved in my heart.

I, the Arihara Haitiger, am not liked by animals.

I've never touched an animal in my life from childhood until I was seventeen, and I've never been approached.

I don't like that on a level that I'm already cursed by something.

I can bark when I get close to the dog.

If we get close to the cat, we can get away.

Crows often ring.

At the zoo, Capybara, who saw my face, furrowed his hair and disappeared from my sight with a full dash.

I don't know why.

At least it wasn't bodily odor or anything like that, and I just had something vaguely alert to the beast.

But not being liked by animals means not being so bitter in life.

At least, in seventeen years of my life, I have had no trouble with that for a reason, and today, today, and without anything in particular, school is over, and I walk with an umbrella on my way home where the rain pours.

Think positively about this.

Animals hate me - WOW!! I've never touched a cat or a dog - WOW!! I can use it for masochistic stuff, and most importantly, if I think I don't have to worry about being attacked by a bear or a boar in the future, I think it's in pretty good shape.

"It's terrible rain."

Seventeen years, even though such animals didn't like me, I was still in high school today, finishing school classes, walking with an umbrella on my way home where it rained.

"... hmm?"

Looking up at the rain-patterned sky and feeling depressed, I find a cat at the root of a street tree at the end of his gaze.

Brown and white cats.

At first glance, I shrugged not thinking, "Ah, cute," but when my cat noticed me stopping, she furried her hair as soon as she could.

"Ha-ha!?"

Seeing a cat blasting through the rain frightened as it is, I am beaten down as usual.

No, it's not. You're used to cats hating you?

Instead, a zoo lion can avoid you?

"Ha..."

Walk straight home with a heavy sigh.

Then, now I notice a female student walking a little further, not a cat.

A woman reading a book, trying to lean down with an umbrella.

I recognize that she is my classmate when I see her reading a book in slow footsteps with slightly brown hair that has been extended as far as her shoulders.

"... Mr. Lion Hara"

Thousand miles of the same class of Lion Hara (Shirahara and Rasa).

Especially a classmate who doesn't get along and isn't a friend, who often looks at each other.

I feel like I've been in the same class more than once, shallow enough to greet you lightly if you look at each other.

So I said, "Uh, classmate? Hmm" or so, I keep walking down a wet road in the rain without thinking about it in particular.

Her footsteps, doing the clever thing of reading while giving her an umbrella, are slow and she's about to overtake them soon.

Without any particular thought, trying to get past her, she stops on her feet without a foretaste.

"... what, now"

?

I hear such a grunt.

Was it the book you were reading that bothered you?

It had nothing to do with me, so when I tried to keep going ahead, --an intense light came out of my feet.

"Hey, what!?"

If you look at your feet, something like a tattoo with weird letters on it was arranged to shape a circle, and that was what appeared around Mr. Lion Hara.

Oh, what is this? Something special? Television?

No, more than that, Mr. Lion Hara...

"There is no such development. I don't know what's going on here, sunshine or anything. We're going to beat him up here."

You haven't even noticed the magic formation at your feet in the first place!?

Oh, speaking of which, he was also a my-paced person in his class!?

"Mr. Lion Hara!"

"Hmm? Oh, Arihara, it's you. Do it."

"Oh, yeah.... not! Get an idea of what's going on!"

"... hmm? What's this? Magic Formation?"

Magic Formation?... Magic Formation!?

The magic formation floating at my feet gradually begins to spin while I am also amazed at the whining of Mr. Lion Hara, who is too mypaced.

Anyway, if it's not from here soon...!

……

"Mr. Lion Hara! Run!"

"... a different world. Yeah, I wonder what a different world is. Arihara-kun"

"Reality escape!? Not fast to give up!?"

I look at my feet, and then I get a true look at her unexpectedly with a vain eye.

Our bodies similarly glowed as the magic formations shed more light.

"Ma, glare..."

Such light that I can't even keep my eyes open.

When everything in my sight was stained white -- my body was blown away to be bounced off by something.

"Hey!?"

"Arihara-san!?"

fading consciousness.

And Mr. Lion Hara, who finally had a panicked voice.

With such a voice, my vision changed from white to black, and my consciousness fell into darkness.
