I Became a Regulatory Official for the Poaching of Monsters, but the Rescued Monsters are trying to Eat Me

Chapter 5 Suddenly Magic Beast Poaching Control Officer (Alternate Personnel)

I think he loves the beast!

Chante's words froze the air in the field. Only the commander snorted his nose and made it look interesting, but suddenly the Taketo said such a thing panicked.

"... eh!? hey... even if it's decided on its own..."

The word "beast" echoes like an animal, and if it's an animal, I probably don't hate it, but if it's like a monster, it's just a little impossible, so please don't say that on your own. And yet, suddenly, being affirmed by Chante, whom I had just met about an hour ago, Taketto wanders.

However, Chante looked up at the tacket with her sapphire-like, but hard-hearted eyes and shook her neck loosely. With that, her long silver thread-like hair shakes sharply.

"Earlier, when I heard that Hippoglyph was protected, you looked so sweet. You must be someone who cares about the Beast. That's the best way to work here."

Hippoglyph is like a horse with an eagle's head. I'm sure I was glad to hear he was safe. If I was confused, the commander told me that it was also a kind of beast.

"The beasts are special creatures that have been subjected to the power of spirits. Many have a much longer lifespan than humans. Some are magical, intelligent, and able to understand and speak human language. For a long time, we humans have interfered with each other at times and coexisted well with them on this earth while maintaining a moderate distance at times. But"

For the last few decades. Through various industrial revolutions and structural changes, humans are gaining strength with unprecedented momentum. Urban areas have seen an accelerating increase in population, widening economic disparities, and the emergence of wealthy people. It may seem brilliant at first glance, but on the other hand, the shadow that lurks behind the brilliant development is also growing day by day.

For a long time, there were hunters who hunted the magical powers of the beasts without me. Some beasts say eating their meat can help with all kinds of diseases. Sometimes parts of the body are traded as jewels as collectibles. In addition, some royal nobles hunted the beast just to show off their power.

However, now that a part of the people has gained power, the hunt has become more frequent to the point of 'overtaking'. Sometimes they were traded at a high price, whether living or dead, and people who were struggling with their lives created poachers for thousands of dollars, hunting beasts. Originally, Magic Beasts have a small population and will disappear from this earth in a future that is not so far away.

Yes, the commander spoke in a faint tone.

"In this way, fearing the status quo of the demon beasts who are disappearing from the world, my king created this" Office of the Demon Beast Poaching Control Officer. "And by the way, there's been a leaver in my office recently. I'm just looking for a replacement. On the other hand, Chantestin just recommended you. What should we do? Of course, you can refuse."

Yes, the commander told me, and I think the tacket is flattering. The content of the work itself seemed not to differ significantly from the work I had been involved in as a detective for many years.

I mean, even though this is a different world, I feel a strange intimacy to the fact that the same kind of work exists in that world. The tacket smiled unexpectedly small. Again, if my experience and knowledge can be brought to life, what are the reasons why I refuse?

And then, maybe. This may have been the real reason, but there are many more beasts in this world besides Hippoglyph. Then I'd love to see it with my own eyes.

"I'll do it. Let me do it."

The commander smiled at Taketo's words.

"It's settled. Welcome to my Office of the Magic Beast Poacher. To the Matrix."

That's how Taketo became a substitute for the Magic Beast Poaching Control Office sometime. I briefly introduced myself on the spot, but it was too late, so I decided to explain my work in detail again tomorrow.

When I look out the window, the forest outside, which I could see from there, is completely dark. There are campfires everywhere around this building that seem to be blurry and bright, but it seems as if it's dark when you step outside the grounds.

Speaking of which, where should I sleep tonight? If you don't like going back to that jail, Chante says, "You should come to us. That house now only lives with me and Ulu, so there is a lot of free space", so the tacket fills my heart.

(Eh... under the roof with such a cute girl!? Are you sure?!

By the way, it seems that Ulu is referring to that big black dog. It is also said to be a kind of beast called Fenrir.

After the dissolution, Chante's house followed with excitement with half expectations and half confusion. It was a two-story wooden house with a barn attached to it.

As soon as I got home, Chante let me wait outside the door for a while and walked into the room by myself. And as soon as he came out, he handed the blanket that he had brought in his hand to the tacket.

"Yes, a blanket. Get along with Ulu."

He said with such a radiant smile. In other words, she sleeps with Ulu in the barn.

"... yes. I'll do my best."

(I see. A man like me who doesn't know how to get lost from other worlds doesn't make it easy to get into the house.)

I feel a little sorry for myself, but I think it's natural.

When I pushed open the two open doors of the next barn and went inside, it was made of tall ceilings with a slash all the way up to the second floor. The bright windows on the ceiling are open, and the moon's light is pouring in from there.

Turning back to the back of the barn, Ulu lay beside the straw mountain in the deepest corner. Even if I lie down, it's still big. About half of the barn was filled with wool.

"... excuse me!"

The tacket enters the barn whispering such a thing. Reflecting the glorious light of the light plate in his hand, Ulu's two large eyes glowed with terra terra.

"Hih...."

I like dogs, but pure fear wins when they're this big. Worried that they wouldn't jump... the tacket gathered hay as far away from Ulu as possible and lay down on a blanket.

With such a crazy creature, you can't sleep calmly. It was only for a moment that my thoughts came to mind. When I closed my eyes, I quickly sank into the sea of sleep.

Thus, the first day of Taketo's other worlds ends.

He slept so tightly that when Ulu got up in the middle of the night and came to the side of the tacket, he didn't even realize he was lying down in a way that would hold him in his stomach.
