"Uh-oh...!

Canade was staring at the cells that trapped him.

If I had the strength to gaze, my cell would have snapped.

That's how I stared at it.

"Yikes!!!

Gah! And I kicked him in the cell.

"Holy crap!?

Billy and his leg were paralyzed.

The paralysis passed to his tail and his hair peaned.

"Ha... no"

Being put in jail, is it time for ten days?

I just got a light hearing in the beginning, and then I left it.

Three times a day, the meal just plugs in, and no one else is coming.

What the hell do you want?

Canade thought.

Though I thought about it...

"Ugh... let me out anyway!

Even though I thought about it, I didn't get an answer, so I decided to give it a bad lift.

Rock the jail in a shabby fashion.

It's really just bad luck.

It won't make any sense.

Still... I'm sure my fellow prisoners are up for it as well.

Just as a quiet mess, you're not supposed to be giving up.

So I have to hang in there myself.

Don't give up until the end, keep fighting.

And you're going to meet Rayne again.

When Canade is strongly determined...

The door leading to the cell opened.

Canade tilted his little neck.

Meal time is still early.

An accurate belly clock tells us it's not time to eat yet.

Then who the hell is it?

That's a hiccup.

"Wha!? You... brave man!!!

It was Arios who showed himself.

"How dare you show your face!!!

Canade's whole body hair stands upside down.

I try to jump on Arios... but I get stuck in jail.

Still, he slaps the jail with cancer and stares at it like it shoots.

"Huh. How you doin '? It's been a while since I was put in jail, but can I still move this much? Even though they're wearing magic locks... is that what you call the Cat Spiritual Clan? Only your health is top notch. Not like the rest of them."

"... what do you mean?

When I heard about the others, the tone of Canade's voice fell.

"You know what I mean? You're not the only one being captured. Dragons, spirits, gods... and that funny ghost. And... we're capturing Rain."

Arios hides that Rayne escaped and lies...

Now Canade could not spot that lie.

I couldn't help but worry about Arios' words.

"What do you mean, you're asking!? How's everyone doing?!?

"Huh, that's weird. Well, I'm sweet. I'll give you a special answer."

Arios laughs niggly and says in a sticky voice as he nags.

"The dragon woman is still feeling better. Just like the Cat Spirit Clan, I have strength. But... the others are subtle. The Spirit Clan has no strength, and the Divine Clan is still a kid. And that ghost, his physical abilities are just like human beings. At first, I was confused, but now I'm perfectly quiet. You could die of debilitation."

"Someone named you......!!!!!

Canade rolled out his fist.

That's jailbroken...

Gashan!!! and made a loud noise, rocking the whole cell even further.

It was as if it represented the wrath of Canade.

"If anything happens to everyone, I will never forgive you!!!

"Don't bark. You can't do anything."

"Ku......!

Canade bit her lips with regret.

Regrettably, Arios is right.

There's nothing more I can do than be put on a magic lock.

Still, I haven't given up hope.

"Rain..."

"Yeah?"

"Because Rayne can do something about it!

"Oh my God... haven't you listened to people? They've got Rayne too, haven't they?

"Still, he'll definitely do something about it! They help us! Rayne is... that's what he is!

"……………"

Arios was slightly deflected when Canade was shown his absolute trust in Rain.

Why are you so frivolous?

Arios can't realize why.

I can't get to the reason why they showed off ties that aren't at their party and thought they were slightly but flattered, etc.

"Fair enough. I thought I'd tell you a little something today."

"... what?

I've decided to execute you.

"What!?

"As enemies of the nation, you were endangered. And I'm going to lay my hands on it straight away."

"Why is that happening!? We didn't do anything! Even Rayne didn't do anything! Or even though I only do what's good for people...!

"... Rain is blind."

Arios has a terribly dark look and says it in a cold voice.

"But every Beast Tamer defied me, the brave one, and I humiliated him tremendously. That's not all. I can't believe he's more active than me and threatens his position as a brave man... this isn't acceptable. Killing him a hundred times isn't enough... it's not enough!!!

"Oh, you..."

"But come on... unfortunately, there would only be one life for Rayne, wouldn't there? Even if you wanted to kill him a hundred times, you'd end up alone, wouldn't you? Then, before I kill you, I have to make you regret it. That's why I decided to use you. That idiot's a buddy of mine, and he's calling me when he does. If I kill you guys in front of Rain like that... Ha, ha! Shit, I'm getting really excited. I can't stop laughing now!!!

"It's crazy..."

Seeing jealousy and hatred for Rain, which was hidden deep inside Arios, Canade even remembered his fear.

Nature and body tremble.

Sometimes, madness erodes people's emotions.

Canade, trapped in fear, drips his tail and ears down.

Gently close your eyes...

"... Rain..."

I prayed for the safety of those I loved.

――――――――――

Good afternoon.

Nina woke up in a cool voice.

It's a stiff bed, but he slept well because of his fatigue.

Nina tried to wake up her body...... she fluttered as she remembered her glare.

I fall straight out of bed.

"Nina!?

Tina woke up with that sound and raised her voice out loud.

I want to help, but on top of being caught in a birdcage, I'm sealed with magic.

I regret so much that I can't do anything.

"Oh, are you okay?

"Huh...?

The cell door opened and Nina was held up.

The person who held Nina... was Monica.

"Hmmm...... looks like you're not hurt. I don't even feel sick. Then you must be simply losing strength. Are you eating properly?

"You......! That's not true, and you normally know what happens if a child is locked up in a locker!?

Tina barks in anger, but Monica remains cool looking.

"Oh. So is that. Excuse me. Because I can't just let you two get away with it on your own. But... I'll give you about this. Phew."

"Ahhh...?

Monica touched the magic lock placed on Nina's neck.

At that moment, I heard a chilli and a key coming off.

"What...?

The magic lock is still around my neck.

But the key is off, so all you have to do is gently twist the connection.

"Yes. Now you can take magic tablets at any time. Oh, it's just, you should think about timing, right? You can get away with it right away, but it's also ant to keep it a secret until it's here. You can't tell if the key is off by the looks of it, and nobody thinks it's off, so you won't check it."

"How...?

Nina asks.

Monica, who got it, laughs softly.

"I was just going to watch it happen. But thank you, Arios, you are too selfish... if you hunt down someone with a way out, you will suffer a painful backlash, but you don't seem to know that... So I could have expected Arios to be at a disadvantage, so I decided to take Mr. Rain's side just a little bit."

"... I don't know. You're on the brave side, aren't you? If the brave are going to be at a disadvantage, what are we going to do with them? I'm gonna put you at an extra disadvantage, okay?

"In that case, we'll get what we want."

"Hmm?

"That's it for the story. Because I'm not going to have more conversations than I need to. Okay, here you go...... Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. Tomorrow you will be executed."

"What!?

"What to do. I'll leave that up to you... but with your daughter's help, maybe we can help others."

"My..."

"Just be careful with the timing though. Because of this, I've come this far, so please don't make reckless assaults that ruin it, okay? So... now it's time to say hello"

Close the cell and lock it...

Monica walked away gracefully.

The two left are lost in future judgment.

I don't know why, but he took the magic lock off me.

He also gave me information that Arios would be at a disadvantage.

It could be a trap if you think about it normally...

"Nina...... what do you think I should do?

"Hmm... I want to tear everyone apart!

I don't care what happens if it's a trap.

Kick everything, help everyone...

And you're going to meet Rayne again.

Nina and Tina decided to keep their strength warm in case of that, with a firm resolve in their eyes.
