[Hiiro]
As a matter of fact, it was unlike Hiiro to hand over his food so easily but there were some reasons for why he did
First, if he was full then he wouldn't be able to able to eat delicious food cooked fro to obtain
Second, the dried meat wasn't tasty
Third, Winka didn't seem like a malicious person, it felt unkind to treat her, as like a pure child, like this
It wasn't pleasant to be stared at and it wasn't a difficult choice to make when Hiiro knew that he would be released from the stare
Winka stared at Hiiro after she finished eating
Wi: ”It was tasty Thanks, Hiiro”
”That's good”
When she saw Hiiro standing up, Winka tilted her head and asked,
”… Where are you going?”
”It has nothing to do with you, right?”
It was a typical thing for Hiiro to say but,
Wi: ”Tell me?”
Wi resembled Hiiro and was also stubborn Hiiro shot a look to Arnold as if telling hi about this situation but it was Muir who answered,
”Ah, well ~… We are going further ahead, but Wi-san travels alone, right?”
Wi: ”Yeah… I' for someone I came here because I heard rumours that he was here”
Muir: ”A person? It is alright if I ask you, who you are looking for?”
Winka immediately stood up, raised her spear and showed it to everyone The spear should have been quite heavy but this little girl was able to lift it up with one hand So it was strange
Wi: ”The person who made this”
Muir: ”If you look at it closely, it certainly is a splendid spear”
The length of the spear looked about 180 cm
There were red and black spots on the handle and the blade rapped in a cloth so it was hard to see the shape but the spear itself looked as if it was forged by an incredible person
At the base of the spear there was a chain about 20 cht on it
Wi: ”It's called 《Bone Maiden of Victory》”
Muir: ”Bone Maiden of Victory… Isn't that a strange name for a spear?”
Wi: ”… Really?”
Muir: ”But isn't it difficult to carry around such a long spear? It's also pretty heavy”
”Wi is strong, so it's okay Also… It gets smaller”
Wi said as she pulled on the chain at the base of the spear The handle clinked and shortened, however, the chain also accordingly becaer
It seemed that the inside had become hollow and was made up of three parts Finally the handle was about 50 cm
”Wow ~”
Muir said in amazement
They heard, however, that the weight of the spear didn't change The chains rattled and when it was being carried the chains had to be wrapped around the handle so it was heavy
Muir: ”What kind of person made that spear?”
Muir had become interested in the person who had made such a special spear
Winka placed the spear down on the ground and spread her hands out before putting them on her head
BOING BOING… BOING BOING…
Wi: ”He looked like this”
The three froze Nevertheless Winka flopped her hands on top of her head again
Muir: ”I-is that person… a beastman…?”
Wi: ”Yeah… This kind of person”
Apparently the person she was looking for was a beaste that she couldn't explain it in words so everyone tilted their heads It seemed that the three couldn't understand Wi's world
Muir: ”In other words, Wi-san, the person you are looking for is the man who made that spear, who is also a beastman?”
Wi: ”Yeah… That's it”
Arnold and Muir, however, looked grian to panic so instead Arnold said with a serious look,
”Why are you looking for him?”
Since Arnold didn't knohat her intentions were for finding the beastht even be so bad to the beastman Search and kill Arnold had nised the existence of such people But Winka remained expressionless and her words left Arnold dumbfounded
”Because he's… My pops”
”… Huh?”
Hiiro as also listening to the story didn't expect that kind of answer but unlike Arnold, he remained quiet Hiiro opened his eyes wide and stared at Winka
(Pops? That's ht? So thatfor is her father and her father is a beastman? So that means this Antenna Girl is also a beasth probability that they're not connected by blood)
Hiiro o when Muir had been kidnapped by 《Beast Cage》, a beastht
Hiio irl's father appeared He was fro saved by the hter
Therefore they had gotten hter was not connected to the ht that Winka was also the saht the same and questioned her
”Hey Wi, is your dad related to you by blood?”
Wi: ”…? Why are you asking so like that?”
Wi had a blank expression on her face It was certainly a strange question for Winka
Arnold: ”Ah, my bad I was just curious”
Wi: ”… It's fine We're connected by blood…? Since Wi is ma and pop's child”
The i Hiiro and Arnold were both thinking that Wi was the daughter brought into the e from the ht there was soe about it The lack of animal ears and tail perplexed them
”You don't look like a beastman”
All caution was bloay at Hiiro's careless remark Arnold looked at hi to do if she has a dark past?”
”Yeah… Because Wi looks like her mum”
Wi easily answered Arnold see the answer, put his hands to his chin and asked Winka,
”Wi, are you half-bred…?”
Wi: ”Ham… What's that? Is it tasty?”
Wi had heard the word ha What a …
Arnold: ”N-no… It see Let's see, Wi is your mother a human?”
”Yup”
Wi easily answered
(I see A human and beastman half-breed)
Hiiro nodded as if he was agreeing with himself
Arnold: ”So it's like that In short, you're the type of half with beastht Wi?”
Wi: ”…?”
Arnold had said that for confirmation but Winka didn't understand what he meant and tilted her head
”Hey, Old Man, does the half-breed's appearance only lean a certain way?”
Arnold firmly answered Hiiro's question
A half-breed is exactly that, a half-breed In other words the parents were from different races
In Winka's case, her mother was from the human race while her father was a beastman The appearance of the child born inclined to one race Like Winka, there were children who looked like humans but there were also humans who looked like beastman
When a child takes after the beastman, unlike Arnold and Muir who looked human with attached animal ears and tail, there were a lot of cases where their body hair and features will become close to that of an animal
For example if they were a wolf, they wouldn't have just animal tail and ears but their whole body would be like that of a wolf, a olf
The existence of half-breeds in 【Edea】was taboo The reason for this was that half-breeds couldn't use ic like the『Human Race』or『Demon-kin』 They also couldn't use 《Trick Art》devised by 『Beastman』
”Trick Art?”
Arnold: ”Ah? You don't know, Hiiro? Beastour they can use so called 《Trick Art》”
Hearing that Hiiro recalled the tiic colued to 《Trick Art》 Hiiro was certain that it was another naic but it seems that it's an Art that could only be used by beastman
Arnold: ”Beastular beastic or Trick Art that normal humans or beastman could That's why they're treated as a heretical existence and are taboo”
”I see So this Antenna Girl can't use ic and even if she has beastman blood she can't use 《Trick Art》either”
Arnold: ”That's right”
Hiiro looked at Winka again, he had thought that her attitude would change because of the current conversation but she looked indifferent to it
Arnold: ”But, I'd never thought that I would ht Muir?”
Muir: ”Y-yes It's a surprise”
Muir also knew that Winka was someone who had beast feeling she felt before had now disappeared
Winka looked around at the three's expressions Arnold felt that her actions were unnatural
”What's wrong?”
”…You're not scared…?”
Winka asked, her eyes a little lonely
Arnold: ”Hah? Of what?”
Wi: ”When I talk to other people about et scared of me… They call me taboo and a monster”
A shadoas casted upon Winka's expression It was an expression that showed just what kind of treatment she had received until now Even if they talked about it now, she ht immediately decide to leave She see about it It was sad to see that she had grown accustomed to it Then Arnold patted her, put his hands on her shoulder and while grinning showed her his butt
Arnold: ”Look”
Wi: ”…?!”
In that moment her eyes widened because a tail had suddenly popped out from Arnold's butt To be aps of his pants
Wi: ”…Beastman?”
Arnold: ”That's right Muir and I are both beastmans”
