Chapter 10 (1/2)

Beast’s threat

Leaving to the town, we start pursuing kurosuke’s smell.

My nose won’t lost the sight of my prey once I grasped it…. Lost its smell? Impossible.

“It’s this way. Follow me.”

“…what’s up that nose of yours, Yuri-san?”

When I sniff it my nose, Firia looks at me with a somewhat astonished gaze.

“If you train it then you should be able to do this much.”

“Or rather, I think the idea of training nose is strange in the place, though.”

Normally my nose would be just like any ordinary nose, but when I focused it, it would be comparable with dog’s nose.

For such me, this request isn’t something that hard.

We favorably pursuing kurosuke’s smell.

The town gradually thickened, we step into an alley where sunlight couldn’t enter it.

After pursuing it for a while more, we finally find a moving silhouette. When I look at it closely, it has the same trait as kurosuke.

“Seems like we find it.”

“Seems like so.”

When I approach it to catch it, kurosuke is growling *gurururu* and tries intimidating me.

As I thought, even if it’s a pet, a beast would still a beast.

That’s quite a good growl.

But if I take any step closer kurosuke might rampaging…. Should I intimidate it too here?

“Uoooo!”

“Kyan!!”

When I do so kurosuke whirl its tail and then rolls its body into a ball. When I catch kurosuke, it’s shaking and s.h.i.+vering.

Okay, with this the request has been accomplished, right?

After that we immediately take kurosuke to the client’s house.

Seeing kurosuke that is curling at my arm, Sharon suddenly makes a broad smile.

“Yay! Thank you Firia-san! And….”

“Yuri-san.”

To the stagnated Sharon, Firia quietly whispers my name to her.

“Thank you Yuri-san.”

“Ou.”

Sharon and her mother are greatly delighted.

I have a bit dissatisfaction that I couldn’t fight against any strong opponent, but if it makes them delighted then just so be it.

Perhaps doing such kind of requests sometimes aren’t that bad.

“I, did I even necessary at this request?”

Firia murmurs so when we walk toward the guild to report our request accomplishment.

“No?”

“Then why did you take me along? Even though I wanted to lazing around at that house~”

Firia pouts and kicks a pebble at the roadside.

“You were the one that talking about group work, didn’t you?”

“I’ve forgotten about such a thing!”

Firia says so with a clear and strong tone.

She’s too unreasonable.

“But you solved this whole request by yourself, right, Yuri-san? So there should be no problem even if I stayed at that house, right? Why did you even take me along? …. Could it be ‘because I want to be together with you’ or something? Kya, that’s embarra.s.sing.”
