Diary of Guarding Monster Girls

The long-awaited Ice and Snow Goddess leaped down from the treetops onto Herbert’s shoulder, complaining discontentedly.

"I’ve gone to great lengths to send you into the Forest of Enlightenment to let you feel Nature, not to go for a walk!"

Upon hearing this, Herbert realized that his teleportation mishap was not an accident but a deliberate act by the Ice and Snow Goddess.

Although he didn’t know what special purpose the Forest of Enlightenment served, he could somewhat guess that this opportunity was not ordinary.

His ability to sense the initial "Heart of Nature," the top Druid skill, was probably thanks to the little kitty’s blessing.

"Well, thank you for your care, madam," Herbert gratefully stroked the Ice and Snow kitten’s tail.

Good kitty, good kitty!

"Hmph~"

The Ice and Snow Goddess wasn’t truly angry, and after being stroked twice, she became happy and asked, "So, what did you experience?"

"Speaking of which, rather than experiencing anything myself, I helped someone else understand, a great awakening kind of understanding."

Herbert thought of the Heroic Spirit hound he had provoked and sighed, "It should be able to comprehend something later."

?

What are you talking about?

The Ice and Snow Goddess blinked blankly, feeling like she didn’t understand but didn’t want to reveal this, so she coughed twice and changed the topic:

"...Ahem! Alright, enough chatter, let’s go quickly, we can’t keep the lady waiting."

She grumbled while adjusting her posture, comfortably lying down as her fluffy tail brushed back and forth across Herbert’s chin.

Herbert suspected she was flirting, deliberately teasing him.

But lacking sufficient evidence, he could only let the little kitty ride on his neck, enduring the humiliation, and following her guidance forward.

In a moment, Herbert didn’t walk out of the forest but arrived at an open meadow in the woods.

And at the center of the flowers and grass... Herbert saw a Divine being.

The elegantly poised Goddess stood quietly among the woods, eyes closed, not knowing how long she had been waiting there.

As if noticing their arrival, she slowly lifted her gaze, looking at the intruders.

And the moment the Forest Goddess looked over, the little kitty, who had been acting high and mighty on Herbert’s neck a second ago, immediately leaped down, transforming into a maiden shape, and bowed respectfully.

"Lady, I have brought him."

After speaking, she suddenly noticed Herbert standing stupidly in place, her pupils suddenly contracted, and she hurriedly reminded him.

"Herbert, what are you waiting for? Quickly pay your respects!"

You usually seem smart; why are you acting dumb now?

This is disrespectful to the Lady of the Forest!

"Pay respects?"

Herbert tilted his head, blinked at the Ice and Snow kitten, and suddenly asked curiously, "Hecayas, have you got something wrong?"

"Meow?"

Seeing that she really didn’t understand, Herbert softly explained:

"I respect the great Master of the Forest and the beloved gentle one, but I am neither her believer nor a follower of Nature; she has no authority to command me."

"And the reason I’m here today is merely to respond to the Forest Goddess’s friendly invitation to meet her."

"So, it’s she who needs my help, not I who needs hers."

Herbert’s smile was gentle, but the words he spoke could be considered quite disrespectful.

He said:

"If anyone should pay respects first, I don’t think it should be me."

!!?

The Ice and Snow Goddess became serious, her hair suddenly fluffed up as if bristling.

"Herbert, you..."

But just as the Ice and Snow kitten anxiously wanted Herbert to stop talking nonsense, Fulingya, who had been smiling softly, called out to her.

"Hecayas."

Fulingya shook her head towards her, then looked at the boy whose smile didn’t change, and softly said:

"Young Godslayer, the Natural Sanctuary welcomes your arrival."

Then, under the shocked gaze of the flustered kitten, the Forest Goddess took the initiative to nod slightly at Herbert.

She said:

"Forest Goddess Fulingya greets you."
