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

It was almost desert-like land.

No, it was originally a meadow near the dry zone, but it hasn't rained at all in the last few years and is being swallowed up completely by the desert.

As he ran over the ground with sparse grass and shrubs, Taketo spread the map.

"Maybe it should be okay around here....."

Find a destination with a quick map and local tips from Kelpy. Kelpy remembered something a few years ago, so it took me a while to find it. Still, I managed to find a place that looked like that.

There is a pond 'After' a short distance from where the settlement was located.

The settlement residents seem to have long abandoned it and gone somewhere, and now there are no brick houses and the wells have dried up.

I found it behind the pond because it was a little depressed and there was a reed "Ashi" growing around it. However, the reed was completely dead. In a few more months, it might have all been buried in the sand.

When Taketo stood on the edge of the pond, he grabbed the Spirit Gun with both hands. Then he quietly pointed his gun up. The Magic Stone Bullets in here belong to the Spirit of Water.

When I pulled the trigger, the water blew up high from the muzzle and fell to Basharn following the gravity. But the dry earth sucks water quickly. The tacket did the same thing many times, releasing water.

Eventually, when the pond began to store water, the surface of the water shook without the wind. Taketo puts down the Spirit Gun and watches.

The shake eventually began to sway like a wave and bubble. From the middle of the wave suddenly came up a slender, elongated one. It also looks like a foot. Thin, long feet like horses. When one or two of them came out of the water and grabbed the surface firmly, they pressed hard.

The next moment, Zabba's head and neck, like a horse, and his upper body came out. It is very similar to what we met on the Finn River. Kelpy.

However, compared to the yellow-green color of the Kelpy of the Finn River, which reflects the water of the river, this one has a red tea color that reflects the color of the earth here.

The red tea Kelpy stepped on the water with his back legs and stood up with four legs. And finally, you shake your body so loudly that you can cut off the water.

"Kelpy, right? Kelpy on the Finn River asked me to. I was told to help my sister."

"... to my brother...?

The red tea Kelpy walks with his hooves on the water and approaches the shore of the pond with the tacket.

My brother must be angry. A stupid sister who fell in love with a horse and ended up like this.... "

The red tea Kelpy lowers his head in an apologetic manner. Somehow the technique is softer than the Kelpy of the Finn River.

"No... yeah. I just... think I was worried."

(I mean, you must have been quite worried. He was so sorry he couldn't come here to help his sister himself. So, it seemed that I was gradually asking humans for allowances)

Remembering how his brother Kelpy looked, Tickle and Taketo laughed and confronted his sister Kelpy.

"Oniisan can't come, so we're here to pick him up. You're coming with me, right?

Chante brings the leather bag that was folded on Ulu's back. It's a big leather bag enough to hold a horse. I spread it out with the tacket.

"Yes, of course. Thank you very much."

When my sister Kelpy said that, she looked like she laughed pitifully. Then he jumped out of the pond with his back foot and jumped into the leather bag with the tacket and chante. In an instant, the leather bag is filled with water. He closed his mouth and put it on Ulu's back. Since the contents of the leather bag are the same as water, it fits the shape of the back of the wool and is stuck tightly. Say it to Ulu while holding it by hand so that it doesn't fall off with a tacket and chante.

"Come on, let's get back to the Finn."

The return was only straight back, so I arrived on the banks of the Finn River in a few days shorter than the trip. Lower the leather bag and open its mouth right next to the river. Then the red brown Kelpy jumped out of the water and jumped into the river.

She must have been so happy. After that, he ran around the river for a while, jumped out of the water like a dolphin.

"That's good. She's so happy."

And Chante nodded at the words.

"Ah, I guess I've always wanted to come back here...."

Speaking of which, Kelpy eats humans. How about you take the trouble to get it back to the river as the same person? I thought maybe, but it seems that they used to live here, so let's just say no. The beast has a much longer lifespan than humans. They probably lived here before the humans built the city on the banks of this river.

In the first place, I didn't get eaten if I didn't return it, so I had no choice but to do so.

"Well, I'm done with what you asked me to do, and we're going home."

And as the tacket was about to depart from the river, it swelled out of the river nearby, and the water boiled up about the height of the man, and it eventually became the shape of a yellow-green horse.

That's my brother, Kelpy.

Human. Thank you for bringing my sister back. "

"Now I've fulfilled my promise. Don't eat me. By the way, I hope you don't eat as many other people as you can, but that's fine if you can't help it."

"... it doesn't matter. Just because humans are delicious doesn't mean you can't live without eating them. We eat fish and crocodiles."

Oh yeah... what a surprise, my brother Kelpy walked up the riverbank to the side of the tokotoko and the tacket. After Kelpy walked, there was a small hoof-like puddle on the ground. My brother Kelpy threw his mouth into his semi-transparent body, turning his neck behind him, and dropped what he had sucked in front of the tacket.

Gold necklaces and rings with large jewelry. Such an expensive thing becomes like a mountain in front of a tacket.

Looking at it, the tacket smiled hard. This alone seems to be of considerable value.

"Hey, I need a favor this time. You said this treasure came from a sinking ship at the bottom of the ocean. This isn't all of it, is it? I want you to bring as many as you can."

What is it? Is this not enough? You're greedy. "

Taketo laughed at his brother Kelpy's stupid voice.

"Huh? Please. I want as much as I can."

I beg you.

Okay. Come back here in the evening. I'll have it ready by then. "

Yes, my brother Kelpy promised, kicking the shore and jumping into the river. After bathing in japonice and splashing water and sinking into the river, it jumps out into the water. Then he raised his neck up and shouted. Then his sister Kelpy, who had been running away, came back, and the two of them met again in the center of the river. After rubbing their necks together to embrace them with joy for a long time, they ran up the river.

In the evening, when Taketo returned to the bank of the river, various treasures of gold and silver were like mountains. With that, Taketo laughs with nihihi.

The next morning.

In the villages on the upper Finn River, there was a noise.

Wherever in the village, there is a shrine dedicated to the god of the river, "Hokora." In front of the shrine were expensive bracelets and crowns.

I don't know who put it there. However, it seemed certain that someone had visited and left it at night, but none of them could be considered. However, only a large beast's footprint was left in the village.

The village was sunk by the flooding of the Finn River, and the villagers, who had fallen on the poor barracks and even suffered from food insecurity today, said, "This is God's will. Now we can rebuild the village."

"Nothing. You didn't have to give it all away, did you?

Next to the tacket that was writing the report sitting on the sofa in the royal palace at the magical beast poaching office, Brigitta says that while drinking tea.

"I mean, I don't need anything golden. More importantly, the villagers will be able to rebuild their lives and live without having to engage in carbuncle poaching anymore... ah, that's right."

As Taketo circled around his trousers' pockets, he shook his hand at Chante, who was sitting on the couch opposite him and helping him write the report.

What?

Taketo gave it to Chante's palm. It was a ring. A cute ring with an ancient inscribed gold ring and emerald gemstones.

"Eh? Is this for me?

To the bewildered chante, Taketo laughs.

"I haven't been paying for food or living in a barn. I thought I'd pay you next time I get paid. Until then, sell it and add it up."

And with that in mind, Chante held the ring she received from the tacket to her chest and stiffened it. I also feel that my face is red somehow.

"What's wrong? Sha...."

Taketo, who wondered how Chante was doing, was beaten in the back of the head by Brigitta before he could finish his words.

"Nooo! Jesus Christ! Suddenly"

I feel like I've been beaten pretty seriously. I felt a jingle pain in the back of my head that I didn't think I'd been beaten with that little cobsie.

"What the hell, it's not! Think about what it means for a man to give a woman a ring!

Heh?

Without knowing what to do, Brigitta sighed heavily.

"Damn it... I wonder why this kid is like this."

and Brigitta is still gripping the traps and cobsies. On the other hand, Chante was laughing happily at whether the interaction between Brigitta and the tacket was interesting while holding the ring.

Later, I sneaked up on Karon and asked him, "What does it mean for a man to give a ring to a woman?" That means I want you to marry me, "she said, and it was a tote with a head. I didn't mean it at all.
