Meet Beast Tamer, the mightiest species of cat ear girl banished from the brave party

Human beings are involved in the extinction of the Heavenly Nation.

What does that mean?

Though I think about it a lot, I have absolutely no information enough to get to the answer.

I get lost asking myself this.

Even me, when I talk about my hometown, it's still hard.

Iris may have the same thoughts.

Still.

Now we should move on.

We should move on to find out about Illis.

Decide so and continue the conversation.

"That's... what's that all about? It may be hard, but can you tell me more?

"Yeah, yeah. I don't mind. Rayne, if you don't mind, let's talk about everything. Well, as I said earlier, it's not to know... it's impossible to know."

"... Still don't mind"

"Well, let's talk about it."

Looks like somewhere fun, Illis turns around on the spot.

"Well, how far did I tell you? I stumbled on, the story went off the sidelines, and I forgot."

"I think we're about to talk about the Heavenly Clan."

"Oh, I was. Yes, I was. About us heavenly people, right? I understand that you know very little about us heavenly people, Mr. Rain. So let's start with an explanation about the Heavenly Nation. Even so, you don't have to get up. Because I don't intend to give lectures for long. Let me be brief."

Illis sits on the ground.

I didn't mind my skirt getting dirty in the dirt and relaxed my body.

Then I pounded next door.

As I was invited to do so, I sat down next to Illis.

Small silence.

I remember such a strange illusion of being alone with Illis in this wider world.

"The Heavenly Nation is a species that has been blessed by the gods."

Eventually, Iris opened his mouth softly.

"In the sense that you've been given the benefit of the gods, you might be similar to the god clan. But there was something decidedly different about the Divine Clan."

"Is that...?

"We Heavens are spirits of the gods. Execute the will of heaven in place of the gods who cannot descend on earth. That is the role that was entrusted to us in heaven. That's what's so different about the gods."

"So... was it the right information that the heavenly people used God?"

"Yeah, yeah. That's right. By the way, you seem to have the correct information left. Exactly, you couldn't have painted everything with a lie."

When I hear that word...

Now, some of the inheritance we're hearing about the Heavenly Nation is a lie.

What the hell, which is a lie?

"I mean, you're talking absurdly about God... the first time I've heard of God not being able to get off the ground"

"Oh, really? As much as that, I think normal people know."

"I never went to church and learned God's teachings..."

If my hometown hadn't been raided by demons, I'd probably have gone to church anyway...

Such an opportunity is gone.

And...

I also stopped believing in God when my hometown was raided.

I don't believe you, it's not like...

I understood that it was myself who helped me in times of need, so I stopped praying more than I had to.

I missed the point.

Be quiet and listen to Illis.

"Our Heavenly Father's mission is to carry out the Heavenly Will on behalf of the Gods. Its heavenly will is… to protect man and annihilate his natural enemy, the Demon Nation. That's two things."

Its heavenly people are now called demons and enemies of men...

What irony.

"At the time, we were, well... the chill runs back, but I think we were able to have a good relationship with humans. Man was honored because he knew we were spirits of the gods."

"Hmm? Wait a minute."

Iris speaks as if he had seen the sight.

"You got a minute?

"What is it?

"I'm sorry I broke my hip about the story...... how old is Iris?

It was a long time ago that the Heavenly Nation was extinct.

Yet speaking as if you knew what you were doing at the time…

You look like this, and Iris is far older than me?

"Huh."

Iris sighed.

Then, Zito, I'm turning my eyes.

"Master Rain. It's not polite to ask a woman that, is it? Well, I can't believe I'm listening to such things by blocking important stories..."

"Wow, bad. Stick around..."

"Totally...... but maybe that's what Rain is all about." Freedom not to be imprisoned by anything… in a way, perhaps it is a virtue "

"Uh... thanks?

"Half of it is ironic, so don't take it honestly...... heh, you really can't help it anymore"

From jito eyes to smiles.

I think so.

If this is how you get to be able to laugh all the time...

I wish we could have a laughable relationship.

But according to Illis, that seems absolutely impossible.

What the hell has happened in the past?

Listen to Iris.

"Well, it's a little off the record… we and humans have been able to have quite a good relationship. I became a good neighbor, it was no exaggeration to say. The Heavenly Nation leaned closer to man and took the path of development together."

Life where the strongest species lean in with people......

Imagine the sight, it soothed a little.

Is it like my party right now?

I'm sure there were fun and serene days going on.

He wasn't wrong about my imagination like that, and Illis looked serene.

I guess the days I spent with my master were never bad for Iris, who hates people so much.

"It was about that one day. The Demon King is back."

"The Demon King...?

"You know this, don't you, Rayne? The Demon King regularly replaces, resurrects, and after a dormant period, enters the activity phase. Afterwards, he leads all demons in their activities to destroy humans… I don't know why they try to destroy humans… For a long time now, wars between humans and demons have been repeated"

"Right... I know that too"

"We, the Heavenly Nation, are the protectors of man. And he who destroys the demon tribe. We chose the path to cooperate with humans, and we fought demons together."

Do you remember the battle at the time, Illis looked rugged?

"A lot of my people are dead. A lot of people have died. Still, I couldn't get a demon king."

"Is the Demon King that strong...?

"Yeah, it was very strong. We couldn't defeat the Heavenly Clan in bundles... but we were hunted."

Iris bit his lip.

What thoughts do you have right now?

Your passion for the Demon King?

Or dissatisfaction with yourself for not being able to help?

It looked like both of them.

"It will be wiped out... the Demon King will triumph and everything will be wiped out... so we have decided to go to the last resort."

"Last resort......?

It's a suicide bomber.

"Eh."

I accidentally take a breath in those words that I was told to rush off.

"We, the Heavenly Nation, have the biggest specs of the most powerful species. Not only does he possess physical abilities, but he also possesses strong magic. Unleash all your powers, let them run wild, hit your enemies… such measures have been taken"

"That's what..."

"The enemy is not sweet enough to defeat the Demon King with a suicide bombing by one of the heavenly tribes. The natural heavenly tribe was gathered together, and all of it was attacked."

"Did you have to go that far...? Until I did that..."

"So much for the Demon King."

Do you remember the time, Illis looked bitter?

Still.

The story of Illis is not over yet.

I haven't touched that part of why I've come to hate humans.

"... will you tell us more?

"Yeah, I don't mind."

"... sorry"

"Pfft, don't be sympathetic. Sure, it's hard to remember the time... because in me, it's already over. I don't really care."

"Right... now, that's what I'm gonna do. Thanks."

There's no way that's not hard.

Still, Illis keeps me talking.

At least as a thought, I bowed my head.

"Well... let's keep talking, shall we? We, the Heavenly Nation, are going to blow ourselves up, but not all of us. If you do that, you'll be extinct. Young men like me will be left without a special attack."

"Were you..."

"And then there was a special attack… which succeeded in inflicting great wounds on the Demon King in exchange for the lives of many of us, the Heavenly Nation. Next, a human brave man attacked and took the wrong form to crusade the Demon King. There was, well, a lot more to it... let's skip that because that's not relevant to this story. Anyway, we succeeded in discussing the Demon King in such a way that we, the Heavenly Nation, were to drastically reduce its number."

It was a spectacular story.

I can't believe I have to risk my life to the point where the most powerful species are doomed...

Again, think of the threat of the Demon King.

It's just...

From what I've heard right now, I don't see any reason why Illis hates people.

Still talking, you mean...

What the hell is waiting for you?

What truth is hidden?

I'm afraid to ask that...

But you can't run away.

"So... and then what?

"We, the Heavenly Nation, have greatly reduced our numbers, making it difficult to achieve their existential significance."

"Existential significance...... proxy of God's will?

"Yeah, you're right. All I had left was women and children. I could not be the protector of man, nor fight the demons, and I did my best to survive the species. The gods admitted it."

"Well, you do. You can work there if you can't, and no matter what they say... don't be angry the other way if they say that. Neither did God say such impotence, do you mean"

"Yeah, you're right. The gods never said they were impotent."

I felt something catch on to that word.

God does not say such things.

I mean...

"But humans said unscrupulous. Protect ourselves, as we have always done..."
