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

"Hey... keep your head up"

Suddenly I have trouble getting my head down.

Mirja looks like a child, but the contents are far more adult than I am...

And it's Tania's mother.

I don't know what to do, even if I can keep my head down like this.

"Thank you for helping Tania. Thanks to you, Rain, Tania's safe."

"I'm not the only one... and I'm one of them, so I just did what's natural."

"I don't think anyone who can take that for granted is very likely."

Mr. Mirua looks up and laughs.

I'm laughing like a child...

I feel strange watching.

Warm or calm...

Second, I remembered my mother in a distant memory.

"And one more thing, let me say thank you."

"Huh?"

One more thing, even if they say...

What else would have happened?

"Thank you for staying with Tania."

"Huh?"

I feel like they said something unexpected.

You can stay with me... even if they say so.

I wonder what that means?

Why were you worried about Tania's solo journey?

So you were relieved to have your people with you?

But then you're supposed to thank everyone else, not just me, right?

Um, I have no idea what that means.

"Oh, I'm sorry. You don't know what you're talking about."

"Uh... excuse me"

I honestly nodded, thinking there was nothing I could do to deceive you.

"I think I have somewhere to skip the conversation - Tania's been mad at me for a long time. I don't know what your mother said. I don't know what she said."

"I see."

Somehow, the sight came to mind.

Smiling.

"Did you hear that? You've been beside me ever since you got to know Tania, haven't you? Thank you... for that."

Even if they say so, I don't think they've done anything special.

He's one of us, so isn't it normal to be beside him?

They guessed my doubts like that.

Mr. Mirja speaks with a distant eye somewhere.

"We're the most powerful species, aren't we? Among other things, the Dragons have a high pride. The Dragon Clan, who looks down on humans, is actually there, like the killer in the incident earlier."

"Well, I guess that's what you have to do."

Compared to the Dragons, my master is no big deal.

Both physical abilities and magic are overwhelmingly inferior.

Seeing someone like that on an equal footing is quite difficult.

"That's why I think it's a big deal to be with Tania. Not as much as the killer in the incident earlier, but Tania's got a lot of pride."

I had an idea.

Since the first time I met her face, she was strong and winning.

I miss it now.

"But I don't think that's a good idea, then. I think we should all get along. So when I was in there, I told Tania a lot..."

"Didn't you listen to me?

"Yeah, you're right. So, as it were, Tania went on a journey according to the code... you were worried. He said," Why don't you do something like this one somewhere? "

"Well... you have anxiety"

"But that didn't happen. I knew you, Rayne, and spent time with you... and that kid could grow up big. My heart grew, not just my powers."

I understand what Mr Mirja is trying to say.

"Thanks to you, Rayne, for staying with me. Being next to someone is so important... because I miss being alone and I can't grow up... so thanks. Thanks for staying with Tania."

"You're welcome."

But... and pinch the words, and go on.

"If that's the case, I'd like to say thank you, too."

"Huh?

"I lost a lot of people once... that's when Tania joined me."

Talk about the time in retrospect.

It made me feel warm, full of nature and words.

"Because it's very important for someone to be with you, as Mirja says. If Tania grew up, I did the same thing... because Tania was there, so I could change a lot. Thanks to Tania, I'm here now. That's what I think."

"Oh well."

"So thank you too..."

"Pfft. I have to tell Tania, not me..."

"So is that."

"Tania, I'm sure you'll be happy."

"Would you be happy?

"I'll be delighted."

Um, and I get lost.

"Similar things, I've spoken to you several times... only then, Tania gets strangely aggressive or in a bad mood,"

"Ha-ha."

Mr. Mirja sniveled for some reason.

"Tania, you're lit. Well, you know what?"

"Mr. Mirua?

"Yeah, it's nothing. Anything."

You look like you know something, but you don't talk to me.

Notice for yourself, does that mean?

In these places, Mr. Mirja is childish.

... In front of him, I can't say that.

"Hey, Mr. Rain. You're still up, aren't you?

"Yes, I'm going to?

"Then a little more, won't we talk? I want to hear a lot about Tania."

"Fine."

"Yay - ♪ Thanks, Rayne, I'll tell you about Tania you don't know. Mostly, you know, talking about Tania when she was little. For example... how old was Tania? I don't know how you were deceiving me at that time."

"... can I tell you that?

If Tania were here, I'd feel like she'd turn her face bright red and angry...

"That's okay. Because I'm Tania's mother."

Eh, and Mirja with her chest stretched.

I don't know why, but it was unquestionably persuasive.

No.

But, after all, I don't think it's a good idea to ask Tania about her past on her own.

"Well, set aside Tania's past... shall we talk about things"

"Yeah, that's right."

Under the starry night sky...

Me and Mirja used to smile and talk about things.

――――――――――

"... uh, mother's fool"

Me, by chance, look where Rayne and her mother talk...

Keep eavesdropping...

I just felt like I couldn't help it, I thought it was worse than this, and I left the spot behind.

"Thank you for staying with me...? Heh. It sounds like Rayne."
