Meet Beast Tamer, the mightiest species of cat ear girl banished from the brave party
224 stories, swelling malice.
After accomplishing their task of crusading the chimeras that make nests around the Wang capital, Arios and the others returned.
People see Arios and the others, and they cheer.
In the Horizon, the name of the brave falls to the earth...
That is not the case in Wang Du.
Humanity's hope.
The Savior defeating the Demon King.
It was treated that way and had the support of a lot of people.
Some, although information on the city of Horizon comes in...
It's about a distant city, so I guess the facts have been distorted, and no one really cares.
"Ha, I'm tired. It's been a long time since I've had a troublesome mission to exorcise Chimera. Hey, you don't have to do this anymore, do you? It won't happen again tomorrow, will it?
Leanne spilled a sigh looking tired.
I hate hard work because I seriously think that I want money, honor and status for fun.
"Tomorrow... what do you think? I don't know, you might have a mandate... but you shouldn't prefer it. Now we have to restore our reputation, and we have to be strong."
Mina is a cleric raised in the church, so she serves both Arios and the country.
So I never find the mandate given trivial.
However, in the fundamental part, we only considered our own interests, which in a way were similar to Lene's.
Agus asks Monica.
"What about around there? Do we still have a mission tomorrow?
"Right...... go back to the royal castle and I can't tell you how clear I am if you don't check it out, but I guess not. I've only been on assignment lately. Exactly, I need to take a break once in a while."
"Well, that helps"
"Yay, long time no see! Hey, hey, this is all we're doing, so naturally, we're gonna get paid, right?
"Yes, I was wondering if there was a problem. From what I can tell, you're doing your job right, and you're not going to stop paying."
"Phew, what should I buy? Shall we take a look around for an acce or something? Mina, do you want to see it with me?
"I'm not interested in that..."
"Ha... you. It's a girl, so remember to wear it. I'll teach you."
"Well...... I'll take care of it"
"What about Monica? Together?"
"Excuse me. It's an invitation, but I have a few errands..."
"If that's the case, you have no choice. Oh, okay. I'm going to have fun until Monica's minute."
"Feed your English with plenty"
"Oh, I'm gonna let you do that"
In the past few days, Leanne, Mina and Agus have become completely friends with Monica.
Arios on the other hand...
"Shit."
I keep my distance from my people and often spend time alone.
I can't believe the knights sent from the country are at the heart of the party, not myself...
It's not a very pleasant story.
It's a party formed for me.
Therefore, you have to be at the center.
With such childishness in mind, Monica's personality is overwhelmingly above Arios, and her people get close to her.
When it comes to what Arios can do, he just distances himself in a grumpy manner.
It's like a childhood rebellion.
It's a laughingstock, but I couldn't afford to just be aware of it.
――――――――――
The next day.
As Monica said, no new assignment would come down, and Arios and the others were given their first vacation in a long time.
Mina, Leanne took me shopping.
Agus seems to enjoy the meal and rolled out to Castle Town as well.
Arios was not in the mood to go outside and was taking his time in the inn room.
Sit on the couch and read a book.
"Excuse me."
"... Monica"
As we had a calm time, the intruder appeared.
Monica.
I thought you said you had business, so why are you here?
When Arios looks surprised, Monica smiles flutteringly, as she answers that question.
"My business... is to talk to Arios."
"Talk to me?
"Maybe it's my fault, Arios, but I feel like I'm being avoided..."
"You're right. I'm avoiding you."
"Why is that?
"There's no way you can get along with a watchman."
"I'm not going to be watching you, Arios... but I can't help it if they think so. In fact, Arios is told to report your actions to the King."
"You've seen it. You think you can get along with him like that? I can't answer that."
Arios waves as if to leave...
Monica ignores it and sits down next to Arios.
And I leaned that fascinating body over to Arios.
"I don't know anymore. Looks like you've made a mistake."
"Mistake?"
"Sure, I may be watching you, Arios. But because it's only a mission… I don't want to do that myself"
"I wonder"
"I respect you, Arios. As a brave man, I think you're wonderful. Besides... it's attractive as a heterosexual."
Monica whispered her sweet words as she tried to push her body.
Arios is frowning...
There was a slight fading of a grumpy look.
A surveillance officer seconded by the state, which I thought was negligible...
Without it, Monica is an endless beauty.
I have the personality to stand a man up, and the style is impeccable.
I didn't feel bad about being told.
Nevertheless, Arios is not stupid enough to devour bait.
Once, take a distance.
"If you want to talk to me, I don't mind. But if we're gonna talk boring, we're not gonna hang out, are we?
"Arios, this is a difficult issue to attract your interest."
"If you don't have a story, leave the room immediately. Or do you think there's something I'm gonna eat? If that's the case, I don't mind talking to you."
"Yes, I do."
Monica responded instantly.
Laughing, he opens his mouth.
"Rain Shroud"
"Huh!?
"You used to belong to Arios's party, didn't you?
"Where, about Rain..."
"Me, because I'm an elite even when I look like this. We have a lot of good people, so we're good at gathering information."
"Tell me about him, what are you going to do?
"Aren't you interested?
……
Arios does not deny it.
I mean, that's the thing.
"According to my investigation..."
Monica smiled and talked about Laine.
That they are called 'Heroes of Horizons'.
That he companioned the five most powerful species, plus added ghosts to the party.
That he was promoted to B-rank for crusading the devil.
To help the princess, to have a connection.
I will keep you informed of what happened.
However……
Rain is pulling God's blood...... just like Arios, I never spoke of being qualified for bravery.
If I tell you about it, Arios will surely run wild.
That's going to be interesting...
But now is not the time.
With that in mind, Monica, except for one point, gave an explanation.
"Stupid...... that useless, but I can't believe it's getting that far...... impossible. That can't be happening... or something that just happens!
Arios shuddered as a messenger when he heard about Rain's activity.
It's useless.
For a falling out.
And yet I can't believe I'm more active than myself...... I can't forgive you!
It's a selfish thought, but nothing points to that.
Dark emotions swell in Arios.
"Me too, Arios, I think you're right. Rain Shroud, indeed, launched numerous achievements. But it lacks something called character. Arios, who draws God's blood, wonders if the word 'hero' is more appropriate."
"What, you know what I mean. Yes... I'm better than that scum. He's just a beast taster and I'm a brave man... and I'm better at it."
"Yeah, sure. Exactly, I thought you were right."
Monica even lifted Arios, smiling gently.
If you're Arios when you're calm, you might have noticed the distorted emotions beyond Monica's grin...
Arios was now losing his chill when he was brought up with the story of Rayne.
Stay lifted by Monica, stay guided......
I am dyed by the thought that I am the superior.
"Nevertheless... the guy from Rain, is he coming to King's Capital? Now what are you up to?
"Hi, I hear you're going to take an A-rank promotion exam."
"I see, you mean..."
"If Rain Shroud passes the exam... it's not going to be funny. The current record shows that the youngest A-rank in history is 21. But once Rain Shroud passes, that record will be heavily repainted. People may glorify him. It's the second brave man, you might think."
"Stupid!? The brave man is just me! He's a brave man!
"Yes, you're right. The brave man is Arios, he's just one. It's just an analogy now, so I don't really care. But there were concerns that if it stayed this way, it might become something real..."
"What are you trying to say?
"Would you like to eliminate it?
Arios was surprised because it was something to say too lightly.
Monica goes on with the words, as she tells the obvious.
"Arios, let's get rid of those who stand in your way."
"Can I say something like that? Aren't you spying on me to keep you from doing that?
"It is also a task… but I consider you, Arios, a priority. That's why I can't forgive Laine Shroud for bothering Arios."
"Huh... Ha ha, what! You know what I mean."
Arios, concerned with Monica's words, laughed.
I thought it was an enemy... no.
This woman is on my side.
I follow myself.
Like Agus, Mina and Leanne, he's a good pawn to treat as he pleases.
That's how Arios recognises it, with a distorted grin.
"It's an interesting story. You want to hear more about this? Naturally, you have a plan ahead of you, don't you?
"Details need to be packed, but the basics are already there"
"Fine. I'll do what you say. Sure, Rayne's guy's in the way. I've always wanted to do something about it. If that's gonna happen, it's worth the ride."
"Call me Monica, not you...... heh"
