Rin and I still stayed at Seira’s house.

    Seira gave her permission because it was hard to find an inn. And she was also worried about leaving Rin in my care.

    Even Seira, who was initially uncomfortable with Rin, was clearly charmed by her cuteness.

    ‘Well… there are a few problems, though.’

    Another uninvited guest.

    The effects of Lin’s misfortune have entered the home.

    morning.

    Seira woke up and yawned slightly, covering her mouth with her hand. As she was coming down the stairs, she suddenly lost her balance and her body tilted forward.

    “Huh…?!”

    Fortunately, thanks to her excellent reflexes, Seira landed lightly on the ground. When she looked at the stairs, she saw that one side was broken.

    “Stairs…?”

    “What a coincidence. The stairs must be old.”

    Suddenly the stairs broke.

    Clang!

    “The plate…?”

    “What a coincidence. I wonder where the wind came from.”

    The wind blew and the neatly stacked plates slipped and broke.

    “This is….”

    “Why are you like that?”

    Seira, who was preparing breakfast, showed me the iron plate. There was only a pure white liquid there.

    “What is this?”

    “It’s an egg.”

    There is no yolk in the egg.

    It’s not a twin orchid, it’s a hen orchid.

    “Is this also a coincidence?”

    “… What a coincidence. I guess chickens only like egg whites.”

    Like this.

    Fortunately, Rin only has one tail, so the severity of her misfortune is nothing more than a joke for children.

    There will be more incidents as the tail grows longer, but we’ll have to wait and see.

    Breakfast time was completed after an eventful ‘coincidence’ since morning.

    A ravenous slurping sound broke the quiet of the morning. Food was flying everywhere beside me.

    “Rin, you have to be careful when you eat.”

    “?”

    “… Done.”

    Lin, who was not good at delicately using tools, threw away the cutlery a long time ago and ate food with both hands.

    I try my best not to be full of slurp, but it’s not easy.

    Well, I might have asked too much of a kid who can’t even speak and has to run around on all fours.

    Just eat well and grow up well.

    “This milk is very fresh and delicious.”

    This morning, Seira brought me some milk from somewhere. It’s a bit lukewarm, but it’s still the freshest milk I’ve ever had.

    Just like freshly squeezed.

    “Mr. Taura next door gave me some to eat.”

    I don’t know who Mr. Taura is, but I know that there are some small children living next door. One of them is a newborn.

    ‘I remember her as a very pretty person.’

    I drank three glasses of milk that day.

    As the food was being emptied one by one, today’s breakfast was about to end without a hitch. Seira, who had finished eating all of her food and drank some water, began to speak.

    “Be careful. There are many people who don’t like you these days.”

    Seira delivers a warning out of nowhere.

    I wiped the corner of Rin’s mouth as she ate, then looked at Seira. Seira continued speaking in a calm tone.

    “The people of Sui do not like the fact that you are a human, a slave trader, or that you bring Hongho with you.”

    “That’s nothing new.”

    It’s because Seira and Bolt are right next to me, but when I walk around outside, I can often see eyes watching me.

    Bestia’s gaze towards the human race is slightly worse than usual.

    Since they are neighboring countries, there are many things that can get tangled up. It is difficult for them to have good relations.

    Even in South Korea, all of its neighbors are like that.

    Moreover, I am a slave trader. There is a rumor going around in Vestia that the Human race treats slaves harshly, and I am in the business of facilitating this.

    “No, then wouldn’t I be a really good person who frees slaves?”

    “You still haven’t come to your senses. As expected, people aren’t meant to be used in a certain way.”

    So, that’s the number of people in this world.

    The mindset of a pet is equipped as the base. The problem is not the slave trader, but treating them harshly. If you treat them with love, there will be no problem.

    As evidence, Bolt is quite trusted in Bestia. This place is a paradise for furries.

    How many people in the world treat their slaves kindly?

    ‘Except me.’

    “Please think about it. I can’t be by your side all day.”

    Seira’s expression is unusually serious. When you warn me like that, I can’t help but think seriously about it.

    ‘Should I hire a mercenary?’

    Slaves may be trusted, but people are not.

    hmm….

    “Remember.”

    Lin trims her hair coolly. She blinks her odd eyes several times, surprised by the sound.

    The tension that Seira had finally been able to recall evaporates into nothingness.

    Pick, a laugh escapes.

    Yeah, what kind of mercenary is a mercenary? If you raise Lin well, he can easily play the role of a hundred mercenaries.

    ***

    For the time being, the work is the same as yesterday.

    Infinite hunting.

    Building up Lin’s magical powers.

    So the two of them went to the forest again today.

    Wedge!

    Lin’s claws flash sharply. This time, too, she tears the cobalt apart in one blow.

    Whether it was dirty with slime or blood, it seemed like it was the same, so Lin killed the monsters as soon as she saw them.

    Without a moment to rest, Lin kicks the ground and launches her small body forward. Her pink hair flutters wildly in the wind.

    Lin quickly approached the horned rabbit that was running away from him and grabbed it from left to right.

    WHACK!

    Internal organs spewing out in all directions along with blood spurts.

    A violent killing spree by a predator playing with its prey.

    Lin looked down at the raw meat, which was an unidentifiable horned rabbit, and bent down to pick something up.

    The feeling of hot blood on the skin.

    A throbbing red heart.

    Lin looked at it with great curiosity, as if it was still alive and breathing. She showed it off to Karami as if it were a fun toy.

    “Support. Throw it away.”

    “Kkiing… .”

    Lin, who had responded with a weak cry, threw away her heart without any care. Instead, she absorbed the energy of the horned rabbit she had always used.

    “When hunting your opponent, just cut off their breathing. If you do it like that, there’s nothing you can do. Also, if you do it like I just did, they won’t give you food.”

    “Caeng.”

    Karami sighed.

    The more he hunted, the more Rin’s cruelty increased. But he couldn’t stop hunting, so it was difficult.

    This part seemed like it would be a good idea to get advice from Seira. As a werewolf, Seira would be of great help.

    “Let’s stop here for today. Before we go, let’s stop by the valley and wash up.”

    Since I was walking around covered in blood yesterday and people were freaking out, I was planning to just wipe the blood off and change into the clothes I brought with me.

    The valley was not far away. Since she had to throw away her clothes anyway, Lin threw herself into the valley and washed the blood away.

    “Now, raise your arms up.”

    Lin often listened to Karami’s words.

    I recognized Karami not simply as a person who gave me food, but as a companion I could trust, even if only a little.

    As evidence, he didn’t growl at Karami, nor did he run away when the chains were released.

    Lin stretched out her arms. She took off her one-piece dress and put on a new one-piece dress. She looked much neater than before. It seemed like she could walk around in front of people without any problems.

    Lin also liked the fluffy clothes. She lay on the floor, stretched out her arms, pulled her waist back, and stretched. She swung her tail wildly.

    “Let’s buy some skewers on the way.”

    When I saw her yesterday, it seemed like Seira really liked skewers. Rin, who likes all meat, nodded vigorously.

    Holding hands, we leave the forest and head back to the city.

    Lin perked up her ears and stopped walking. Since Lin didn’t move, Karami stopped as well. It seemed like he heard something.

    But Karami, who was hard of hearing, couldn’t hear anything.

    “What do you have?”

    “Kang!”

    Lin, who had been hearing the sound, ran out and disappeared into the forest in an instant.

    It seems like I’ll have to start teaching her how to listen again. Karami sighed and ran in the direction where Lin had disappeared.

    “Kkaaah!”

    How much did you run?

    Karami also began to hear strange sounds in his ears.

    A dissonant sound that does not fit with the forest.

    When Karami arrived at the scene, what unfolded before his eyes was a tree-shaped monster called Tripidian confronting the water adventurers.

    The trunk was engraved with a fierce face, and the branches shook their leaves and swayed like snakes. A water man was already caught on those branches.

    Before Karami could even give a separate order, Lin was already flying.

    Lin runs towards Tripidian with both arms and legs fluttering. Tripidian’s branches, recognizing her as an enemy, rush in with a snarling sound like a snake.

    Lin moves her nimble body to avoid the branches.

    He kicked the branch and threw himself onto the branch where the water man was caught.

    grasp!

    Kuwaaa!

    Lin swings her claws to cut off a branch. Triphidian’s expression distorts and he screams.

    The tied up man falls to the floor.

    “Krrr.”

    Lin glared at Tripidian and growled fiercely. Tripidian, who was dripping sweat-like sap, moved its legs and roots and fled.

    Thanks to that, the party of adventurers who had been able to get their bodies cleaned up were relieved.

    “Thank you. I almost became a part of Triphidian. If it weren’t for you, I would have been in big trouble.”

    “Kang.”

    “Uh… Hmm. Is it a wild beast?”

    Rabbit Suin tilted his head as he looked at Lin who couldn’t speak. Karami came between them.

    “I can’t speak yet because I haven’t been educated yet. But I can listen and understand, so I’m sure you’ve heard my thanks.”

    “Human race?”

    “I am the owner of Lin.”

    The Suin party was bewildered by the combination of the mute fox girl and the human race that suddenly appeared. At that moment, the lizardman’s eyes, who was thinking to himself while looking at Rin, flashed.

    “This, this pink fox! This fox brings misfortune. That’s for sure!”

    That moment.

    The expressions on the faces of the Suin party members looking at Lin completely changed.
