Chapter 98 (2/2)

「Is that so then It's not particularly the case that I was patrolling this forest aswas because I had ti time……

I made a bitter face and, nine tails made a kakaka and sood movements weren't they? I also acted reflexively but, it really helps that you avoided that」

With those front legs with sharp claws that seerotesque had they hit directly, nine tails began scrubbing its face clean

If that had hit it would have ended with that hit, such a atmosphere

……You fox

「Since I've been trained By ane and shi+shou for example」

「O-shi+shou~? An elf? Your movements, did you learn the, nine tails stopped cleaning its face and stared at me

「Eh? I suppose so, it was fundamentally Till……my shi+shou, Tillbell・Einshaula」

Maa I often coh, there's no uidance every day

Not only s to matters of physical technique

「Ku, kakakaka! Still alive then, that tiny elf? Indeed indeed」

Hearing that nahed out

Frankly it's scary……

「Did you know her?」

「That's right, she's one of the few people I couldn't eat」

「Eat……」

This nine tails, did it fight Till……

「You needn't worry, I don't eat humans now」

Is that true?

「That really was an enjoyable diversion Breaking that little one's phantasm, took the full use of my power you know」

「You broke that!?」

That Cocytus was!?

So there was an existence that could break that……the world is vast

Maa, it seeh

But in that case, is this beast that broke the dreareat youkai nine tails that proclaimed itself to be a divine beast what's incredible or? Is it Till who fought it to a draw that's incredible……

「……For now, I now understand that you're what's called an existence above the clouds」

Just as stated, that stuff before was just play wasn't it

「What is this? Do you have considerable admiration for that little one then? Isn't that a rather laudable attitude」

「Though her looks and personality are like that aren't they」

「That isn't very specific」

「……」

I have a lot to say nya, Saira fixedly turned her eyes at me

Stop it Saira, stop with those lukewarm eyes

「By the here could this be?」

「You, why did you come here?」

「I was in the sky when I came to so, it's unclear after that」

「I don't understand but, you're, an airhead aren't you……」

「Somehow you've made quite the statement」

「Well whatever To say it in terms of human countries, this is close to Ashi+taka I suppose」

「Ashi+taka kingdom?」

Is this our destination?

As 2 people with Saira this has becoic stone so as to be able to call from here to the royal capital so, we'll have to contact Ilya frodom

「That's just the place we have business in」

「Is that so」

……

Even Rin-chan clinging toI should pound the h

Is this a coincidence?

I looked at Rin-chan as she's held by Saira in her sleep

「You'll exit the forest if you continue going straight in this ic power so, since the next tiht do I

「Kakaka As an apology foryou」

――Kyui!

Along with a high pitch voice, a fluffy fox child came from the bush behind nine tails

Is that child the ani

A small body to an extent that it can't be compared to nine tails, just when I noticed it coil around my feet it went up onto my shoulder

「Wawaa」

What is this cuuute!

「Kyui!」

「Cute」

Just when I noticed the child fox cry softly in olden bodily fur and bushy are no different from nine tails

「In just thatto fear I would like it to see various human countries with you」

「I don't mind but, is that fine with nine tails-san?」

「Isn't it said that adorable children should be sent on a journey? Of course, if soh I suppose, elf child」

I got goosebu eyes of nine tails……

「It's okay it's okay! ……I promise」

「Kyui kyui!」

Fox child, will you become like that in your future?

Let's be careful not to be resented……

In accordance with child fox 『Kyuu』's guidance, we left the forest and was able to enter a plain

By the hat's called Kyuu is a name we unilaterally attached

It seein with and since nine tails had no naave our name ere mildly warned that「Names aren't to be exposed so sih to understand, and such

After that it seems they know by save this fox child the na si voice

Maa, this child of nine tails is basically still one tailed though

「Is Kyuu not hungry?」

「Kyui!」

「Is tha so~, you're already fa strange?

Saira see me with distant eyes, her eyes faced me as if toward a child

「Saira, do you have so bags I have 2 people's worth nya」

「That so, then I and Rin-chan will use one together Since the sun has already set, let's rest here today」

「Hai desu nya!」

I don't knoe'll reach a town if we hurry ahead and, in that case we should rest early

I've finished confiric power has coands appear I suppose I can do so so, she put down her ruck and adeptly started the preparations for caht

「Rin-chan……」

「Kyui……」

Since her sleeping breath is calm and, she does occasionally wake up and talk with us I don't think there's so a lot

When I prepared the sleeping bag a bit ago Rin-chan helped out with the night camp until she fell asleep

I built a fire with shtly flavoured porridge

「Will Kyuu eat? It's hot so be careful okay」

「Kyui!」

Foxes are o cooled to an extent, I began tearing it apart to eat

「But e in such a place?」

Saira put her bowl in her lap and, ht

Given that this wasn't some sort of natural disaster, this phenomenon wasn't me or Saira

In that case there is to an extent a person of the sort that knoho caused it to happen

「To the extent that I want to press Solt-san about the situation」

「Is it really, like that then nya?」

「I can't make it conclusive yet but, I think Rin-chan's current state, is siic power」

If that's the case then, she should recover if she takes it easy so I suppose there's no need to worry though

「It's worriso」

Further else that needs to be worried about isn't there

I turned e

That nine tails, just what is it thinking?

But if it's thinking with purely good intentions, I think it's too airheaded……

「Kyu?」

「Nn?」

The gaze fixedly staring at it ht have aroused its interest, Kyuu looked up atfinished eating its meal Kyuu came and wrapped itself around me before I noticed and――

「Wai! Wait wait! That is……! Hey! Why did you enter the space in my crotch――! Stoo, Kyuu!! Ah――」

「Waa……」

……For the nonce, I couldn't think about things too deeply
