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

"What, are there other strongest species?

"From here to west, you know there's a plain just like here?

"Yes, I've never been there, but I have a map"

"Well, do you have a map of this continent? I don't know who it is, but whoever made that map is excellent. Whoa, I'm sorry. I missed the point. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Mr. Sigre gives me a loving grin.

Similar to the Spirit Clan, I heard he was frightened of humans and disappeared...

It's kind of friendly with me and Chiffon for that, isn't it?

I miss Sakura, so I'm talking about trusting us, too.

I trust myself because my grandson trusts me.

Is that such a simple story?

I don't think you're lying about trusting me.

So I think there's something else hidden that I just believe in.

"What's wrong with you?

"Oh, no... nothing"

You shouldn't.

I'm curious, but right now, I need to hear about another of the most powerful species.

"Is it possible for you to tell me about the other most powerful species?

"Oh, good."

Mr. Sigre nods one and then speaks slowly.

"From here on the western plains, there is a vast entrance to the dungeon. No... it should be called an ex-dunction."

"Yuan...? What does that mean?

"The most powerful species of the case resides in that dungeon. So, ex-dunction, that's why."

"I see..."

It's one of the most powerful species in the world to live in a dungeon.

Normally, I don't think about that, and even if I do, I don't have enough power to do it.

That's right, should we call it the strongest species?

Apparently, this one also exists out of standard.

"They're not like us, childhood takes on a different look, nothing like that. The appearance is very similar to that of a human being. What's so special about manipulating flames?

"Give me the flame... Does that mean you don't have the ability to heal?

"No."

Mr. Sigre shakes his head to the side.

Then, I combine words and information while doing the thinking trick.

"When it comes to manipulating flames, it doesn't mean you're specialized in attack capability. They have the healing power Rayne seeks. He's a healing flame."

"Healing Flames......"

"The flame, flaming but not violent, is very gentle. Nothing like burning your skin, rather, enveloping it warmly. They say it's possible to bring the dead back to life."

"Is it true!?

"That's all I'm asking. We know all about the Undead... but we can't say for sure if we have that much power."

"Really..."

Everything doesn't work out the way I want it to, and I'm a little disappointed.

But I paved the way.

The most powerful species did exist: having the power of healing.

And then, if we can somehow mount cooperation......!

"How could the Undead be on the North Continent?

"Uh... that's it"

Mr. Sigre looked very bitter.

I have a bad feeling.

"Basically, it's similar to us and the Spirit Clan. I moved to the North without humans because of my love for humans. It's about the same time as us, so I guess it's not on the record."

"I see..."

"There's just one big problem"

"Is that a problem......?

"They're hostile to humans."

According to Mr. Sigre's story...

Back in the day, people and the Immortals used to walk the same path as good friends.

But knowing that the immortals would have the power to bring even the dead back to life, man sought them.

I want my family back.

I want my friend back.

Desire is not just that...

I want you to teach me how to come back to life even if I die.

I want you to tell me how to become immortal.

Like poking irrational demands.

And the immortals, who loved men, tried to distance themselves from men, just as the wolves did.

But people don't allow it.

Once, as I did to the heavenly tribe...

I stepped off a man's path. I tried to go out on the deed.

As a result... there was a dispute between people and the Immortal Birds.

And the relationship goes to the worst.

The Undead said they saw people as complete enemies while fleeing to the North.

"... Oh, my God"

I've been told terrible things, and I accidentally hold my head on the spot.

I don't know where anyone is, but people from the past do extra things for me.

"Hmmm... with that background, it might get harder and harder"

Chiffon says as he clouds his face.

Yes, she's right.

The immortals, reluctant to use their power, moved to the North Continent.

And we've come this far with the power of such immortal birds.

I can't even think of shards when things roll out smoothly.

I only have a feeling of trouble.

"We werewolves and spirits just hate humans. There's nothing like attacking you, even if you do something cold to push it away. Well, unless you call me from the other side. However, the Immortals are not the same... they will attack without question if they find a human. That doesn't change the way you treat demons."

"Uh-oh... we're not demons."

Canade pointed her lips in disgust.

I know how that feels.

I know, but... you can somehow understand how the immortals feel, too.

Listening to Mr. Sigre, it looks like he's been in pretty bad shape in the past.

That's what...... like Illis.

If you see it like that, you can't help but be hostile to people.

"Well... here's the thing about the Undead. I don't mind telling you the details, but you're under attack. The whole race, I think, will break out of my mind. I see a future where that happens...... what do we do?

"Sure, I'll go"

Immediately, Mr. Sigre turned his eyes round.

"... you weren't listening to me?

"I'm listening. Probably going to be attacked without question, right? It's hard to convince you that you don't even have a hippo to discuss it in the first place. It's more than likely that our purpose is healing."

"If you know so much... how come?

"... there's a child in pain."

I've seen terrible things in the past, and I've lived in the dark ever since...

I can't forget the empty grin that such an Illis occasionally shows.

It doesn't matter if you're alive... such an empty grin burns you in the back of your brain and won't leave you.

"I... want Iris to laugh. I want to see a laugh from the bottom of my heart again."

Before... when I talked to Iris when I didn't know anything, I felt like I was laughing fun.

I wish from the bottom of my heart to get a smile like that back then.

"So whatever it is, whatever it is I'm waiting for... I'm just pushing on"
