“Bastard! What have you done to the Sacred Beast?!”

“Huh?”

Just as the ball of fur finally seemed satisfied, a voice rang out. Still sprawled on the ground, I looked up, wondering if one of those smugglers had managed to survive.

I was greeted by chocolate-colored skin, beast ears, and a tiger’s tail. Ghislaine…? No, it wasn’t. They looked similar, but it wasn’t her. The hairy, muscular part was the same, but there was something a bit different. Ghislaine’s biggest feature was absent. It was the chest—this person’s was flat. This person had pecs where Ghislaine had a full bosom. It was a man.

The man put his hand to his mouth, as if he were about to shout.

Ah, crap! He’s going to do something. I’ve got to run. But I can’t move!

“Doggy, move. I need to run from this guy!”

The dog moved.

I scrambled to my feet and activated my demon eye. I could see what would happen.

The man has his hand still pressed to his mouth.

I thought he wasn’t going to do anything, but then suddenly he roared. “Graaaaah!” The volume was overpowering. It was a voice many times more shrill than any Eris had ever produced. The sound felt like it had mass. My eardrums rang, and my brain trembled.

By the time I realized what was happening, I had collapsed. I couldn’t stand. This was bad. I had to heal myself, but I couldn’t move my hands. What the hell was this, some kind of magic?

Crap. Crap, crap, crap. I couldn’t use magic? I tried to channel my mana but…no good.

The man grabbed me by the collar and lifted me into the air. I was brought level with the frowning face of a man, his brows knitted together.

“Hm. Still just a kid. Can’t bring myself to kill you.”

Ah, it seemed I was safe. Thank goodness. I was glad I looked like a kid.

“Gyes, what is it?”

Another man appeared. He looked similar to Ghislaine. but had white hair. An older man.

“Father. I’ve subdued one of the smugglers.”

“A smuggler? Isn’t that a child?”

“But he was trying to attack the Sacred Beast.”

“Hm.”

“He had an obscene look on his face as he fondled it. Perhaps he isn’t the age that he appears.”

N-no, you’re wrong. I’m twelve. I’m definitely not a forty-five-year-old man on the inside, I protested in my head.

“Woof!” When the beast barked, Gyes and the other man both took a knee before it.

“I apologize. We should have moved with more haste, but instead we were late in our rescue.”

“Woof!”

“To think that this boy would lay his hands on your holiness… Gah…!”

“Woof!”

“What? It didn’t bother you? How benevolent…!”

They seemed to be having a conversation, although the dog was only saying “woof woof” the whole time.

“Gyes, I found Tona’s scent in a room in the basement. She was here. That is certain,” the old man said.

Who was Tona? From the context of their conversation, I guessed it was one of the beastfolk children.

“Let’s take this young boy back to the village and interrogate him. He might have taken them somewhere.
