Meet Beast Tamer, the mightiest species of cat ear girl banished from the brave party
Nineteen stories, new request.
Tania joins her people...
The next day.
The three of us who received a new request moved to the plain.
This request is a crusade for slime.
The reward is proportional and varies depending on the number of slimes defeated.
Slime is an F-rank demon, not an adult, but a mutton fish that even kids can defeat.
Consequently, it is not considered a threat and is often left unattended…
He's been left alone too much, and he's had mass reproduction.
That number, more than a hundred.
Strike the animals with the momentum to collapse the plains ecosystem, strike livestock and raze the fields.
Sometimes, they attack even humans.
I just couldn't ignore it, and my request came around to the guild, so...
"Nyah, slime."
Canade spilled an uninspiring voice.
"What, if you canade, are you afraid of every slime?
"Nyah, no."
When Tania told him to brown, Canade swelled his cheeks.
"There's no way the Cat Spirit Clan is going to be late for slime or anything! If it's in my hands, it's too much! But... I don't like slime because I'm shabby, and I hate it because I'm naughty... and I'm naughty."
"Oh, you know what?"
"Sure. Those guys, they're like chunks of mucus. I don't like it when I try to be a physics specialist canade."
"Nyah..."
"Ma'am, don't worry. I'll put them together with fire balls and braces."
"Ooh... Tania, I can count on you!
"Huh, can I give you more praise?
"Tania, wow! Tania is great!"
I was worried the two of you could do well because we met...
Apparently, he was worried.
Tania has some things she's not honest about, but the roots are sweet.
He thinks about Canade properly, and, like now, he tries to shoulder replace what he can't.
These two could be a good combination.
"Slymoo, Slymoo, Slymoo somewhere"
"All over with my flames ~"
Canade and Tania looking for slime while singing weird songs.
But I don't see Slime.
It's a herd of over a hundred, so there's got to be no place to hide.
Nevertheless, the plains outside the city are also vast.
I can't see. I guess he's lurking somewhere.
"Oh, I don't see it."
"It's so annoying, do you want to wrap it up with my braces around here?
"Don't tell me that in a joke"
"Oh, I'm serious?
... I'll have to teach Tania some common sense later.
"You don't have to be so unscrupulous, there's an easy way to find them."
"You have a lot of confidence in yaki. What the hell are you gonna do?
"You can search from the sky."
I called in regular wild birds, not fiercely poisoned birds like this one before, and made a tentative contract.
"Hey, what are you gonna do? Is that what you're gonna search for?
"But what orders do you give? Find the slime. - Take him there. - Is that what it feels like?
"That's okay, but that's a little rough. It's hard to use animals for directions. Sometimes an animal is taken in a completely different direction by mistake of what the order means."
"Then what are you going to do?
"assimilate"
"What?"
Tania looked surprised when she didn't know what to say.
It's actually quicker to get a look at it than to explain it in words.
I concentrate my consciousness on wild birds with temporary contracts… 'assimilation'.
The perspective switches from 'human' to 'wild bird'.
What I see in my sight are Canade and Tania... and myself.
"Oh, that? Rayne's signs suddenly disappeared... is that it? But Rayne is here..."
"I mean, isn't Rain responding strangely? Something like a doll..."
"That's because my soul is in this wild bird right now."
"" Hih!?
The two of them as Kyoro Kyoro......
Slightly, I... my gaze is fixed on the wild bird.
"Also, could..."
"Rain has become a bird...?
'Too bad. You don't like the confusing explanation of transferring part of my soul into this bird and immobilizing my consciousness... Simply put, you transferred my consciousness into a bird. Now my body is called this bird.'
"" What???
Together, there was a question mark over my head.
"This is one of those BeastTamer moves called assimilation"
"I never heard of that!!!?
"I've never heard of that!!!?
They say it out loud all the time, and I look at it unexpectedly.
I'm a wild bird right now, so you two are big and powerful.
"I can't believe we're not just using animals, we're transferring consciousness... Huh? Yeah, yeah? Rayne is impotent... I can't believe he did such a hell of a handkerchief... hey, duh, what's going on?
"Rayne, that's a hell of a lot... I admitted it to some extent, but I can't believe this much... it's not a big deal to have all the most powerful species and use techniques you don't know, is it? There's just something Canade would admit... really, wow"
"It's no big deal to assimilate, is it? It's not that praiseworthy... '
"" Because it's outrageous!!!
Again, they said it all together.
Hmm.
This is the most obvious technology for me.
Of course, it's not like ordinary people who know nothing can do it right away...
I thought being a beast taster was something anyone could do.
Hey, is there something wrong with the perception around there?
"By the way, how are we talking?
"I'm delivering a wave of thought. When you're assimilating with animals, you can't speak, so you're delivering waves of thought by making up for it with magic. I'm a beast taster, so I don't have much magic, but I have enough magic to deliver a wave of thought to people nearby."
"I see."
"Really, it's clever."
'Well, I'm going to search around a bit. Meanwhile, you asked for my body. "
"Ra!
"Come on in."
The two of us dropped me off, and I feathered high in the sky.
