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

Mr. Alpha didn't look like a liar.

So you'll be able to have a normal time without anything happening for a while.

We decided not to rush, but we decided to talk first.

If we go back to the inn, we'll have the Canades, so we can't talk calmly.

So I moved to a park in the city.

"You haven't changed anything about the park or anything. It's still beautiful."

……

"What is it? That, unexpected, kind of face. I have a heart for nature, too. The only thing I don't like is humans."

"Uh... sorry. It could have been a little prejudicial."

"Well, you have no choice. In front of you, Rain, I've shown you a lot of things."

"... do you still hate people?

"I hate you."

Though I answered clearly, wonder, I could not feel the kind of hatred or intent to kill from Illis.

I used to give off sharp signs that if I touched them, they were going to cut me off...

That's not happening right now.

I was very calm and calm.

"Since then, what's happened?

"You seem surprised by my change... but it was Rain who made me do this, wasn't it?

"Me?

"Meet you, talk to you, fight you… they have changed the way my heart is. I don't feel bad about that."

"... Illis..."

"... ah"

Makes me look like Ilis is hacked.

What are you telling yourself?

I can turn my face red and illuminate like that.

"Wow, that was my story."

Then I heard about Illis.

Since then, what's happened?

What have you been up to?

Luckily, I have time.

I listened slowly to those stories.

"… and that's why"

"Oh well, that's what happened to Illis..."

The Demons helped me, solicited me, did some work...

Knowing the blank time in Illis I never knew before makes me feel indescribable.

I am glad that Illis was alive.

I just can't believe the Demons were helping me...

Besides, they're soliciting me.

Will Illis help the Demons?

If so, will they be hostile again?

"Illis..."

"I won't."

"Huh?"

"You want to know if you're going to cooperate with the Demons, right?

"... Could it have been me, on your face again?

"Yeah, very much. Phew."

Illis laughs with pleasure.

This tension also disappears because it's something that looks really fun on your face.

"I am grateful to the demons who helped me, but I will not cooperate."

"Why is that? From an Iris standpoint, working together doesn't seem to be a problem...... oh, no. Of course, I don't want you to cooperate."

"Right...... sure, Rayne, you're right. Even now, it doesn't change that humans hate. The purpose of the Demon Nation is to destroy man… In that respect, it can be said that the purpose is consistent. But......"

"But?"

"... If you do, will you be competing with Rain again? Because I don't like that."

He smiles like an Illis, like a needless child, and says so.

"Oh well... good. I don't want to fight Illis again."

"Is that because I'm strong?

"Say it yourself or it"

"Heh, it's true."

"Totally......"

Ilis laughs, so I laugh, too.

As I was doing this, accidentally, I was about to cry.

I can't believe I can talk to Iris again.

I can't believe we can laugh at each other.

It may be a little exaggerated, but it's like a dream, I think.

That much, my failure to help Iris had a huge impact on me.

"You're not going to follow the Demon Clan anymore when you tell me all sorts of things, are you?

"Yeah, I am. I owe her, but that's why I'm not going to sell you everything I have. What I do is up to me to decide."

"Oh well, good... but then, what are we going to do? I'm asking about what happened after I solved this case I'm involved in right now..."

"... what shall we do?

Trouble, like that, Iris tilted his neck with his hand on his cheek.

I don't think it's an act.

Seems like he can't really decide what he's going to do about it.

No.

Not that you're overdeciding, but you're not thinking about anything?

"The purpose of my life was all about vengeance. But now I'm not going to kill humans senselessly. And then there's nothing left, and it's empty."

"That's... but in other words, what can I do, anything?

"Right, you're right. It's just... it's also true that when you're given freedom like that, you don't know what to do. Sadly, I don't know what to do on my own."

Illis, saying so, was like a lost child.

I don't know what to do on my own, I just seem anxious.

Without the signposts, I can't move, and I come and go the same way.

You can't leave Illis alone right now.

Such a strong feeling springs up.

Someone has to stay with you.

Someone has to pull your hand.

Now it's time to make no mistake.

If that role is required...

"Why don't you come with me?

Nature and those words were out there.

Ilis shall be Kyoton.

"Huh?"

"Join us on our journey. Be an adventurer. What do you say? I'm sure it'll be fun."

"But that's..."

"You don't like it?

"No, no! No way, such a thing!

"Then when we solve this case, we'll go together. I want you to join my party."

I feel so strongly that I want to be with her.

"But... I'm killing a lot of people. This hand is stained with blood. I can't be with someone like you Rain..."

"Fine. I don't care."

"Uh... no, but... so light..."

"Indeed, Illis sinned. I guess it's not about making amends. But I'm still alive. I can walk forward. So... even if we went that way together, wouldn't it be okay? The sinner must be alone, for there is no such thing."

"But Rain and the others are annoying..."

"Right, there may be something. But even if something happens, I want to choose my path with Illis. I did that."

"... you're selfish, Rayne."

Illis laughs small.

That was the smile of an age-appropriate girl.

"... can I put my reply on hold? Let me think a little more."

"Okay. I won't force you, and I'm not going to rush you. Think slowly."

"Yes, thank you"
