The Beast Tamer Exiled From the Hero’s Party and the Cat Eared Girl From the Strongest Race Meet - CH 23
Chapter 23-: Failure
Let’s work as adventurers in good spirits today.
So, I’ve accepted a request.
It was to kill Orcs.
Orcs are E rank demons.
Their actual physical abilities are not much different from F-rank goblins.
However, the Orcs were more intelligent and had the characteristic of fighting with weapons.
The weapons were crude, such as swords carved from stone or spears made from wood. ……
Even so, an adventurer with a low rank would be threatened by an opponent with a weapon.
If the opponent is armed with a weapon rather than bare hands, the risk of injury increases dramatically.
This is an opponent that should not be underestimated. ……
“Tania, Tania. Let’s see who can kill more of them.
“Hmmm, you’d be a fool to challenge me to a match. Okay, I’ll take it.”
The two of them were talking in a relaxed manner.
Orcs are no match for the strongest species.
I know that, but ……
“It’s a good idea to keep your guard up, both of you.
“Nyan?”
“We’re just beginning adventurers. If we are overconfident in our abilities, we might make an unexpected mistake. There’s no need to be overly cautious when dealing with Orcs, but that doesn’t mean you should forget to keep a sense of urgency.
“Nyan, be careful!”
“But Orcs? It’s only an E rank demon, you know? Do you really think I’m going to lose to that?
“No, I don’t think so. But you might get hurt, right? I’m just saying you have to be careful.
“You’re such a worrier.
“Are you sure you’re gonna be careful?
“Yes, sir.”
She replied appropriately.
It seems that my words did not reach Tania.
If nothing happens, that’s fine. ……
“They are there.
“I’m on it, Unyan!
I rushed into the orc dwelling and crossed blades with them.
There were about 20 enemies?
There were more than I had expected.
However, right after the battle started, Tania released her magic power to intimidate them, and the will to fight of the orcs dropped at once.
Knowing that the strongest species had arrived, the Orcs fell into a state of panic.
They panicked and exposed their gaping bodies.
We defeated them one by one.
“Hmmm, easy win! Yeah!”
Tania swung her tail like a whip and flicked one of the orcs away.
The orc, blown away by the ferocious force, rolled over and over on the ground and then collapsed.
Soon after, its body turns into a magical stone.
“This is the first time I’ve ever seen such a thing.
The Orcs that were trying to escape all fell before Kanade’s fist.
That’s as good as it gets.
The two of them were destroying the Orc pack at breakneck speed.
I can’t afford to lose too!
“Huh! Huh!
I guess they thought that I, a human, would be able to handle it.
The Orcs rushed towards me, but I didn’t panic and shot them down one by one with my fists.
When multiple Orcs came at me at once…
“Fireball!”
I blew them all away with magic that I had adjusted the output of.
Thanks to Tania’s training, I’ve gotten pretty good at handling magic.
“Rainer, I’m done here.
“I’m done with mine.
“I’m done too.
The orc swarm was completely gone.
The orc pack had disappeared without a trace.
“That was easy.
“Yankee.
“Thank you, both of you. I’m sure you’ll be able to understand.
“You can thank me if you want. You can thank me if you want. You can worship me if you want.
“Don’t get carried away.
“It’s true.
“For now, let’s get the demon stone.
I’m not sure what to do, but I’m sure I’ll be able to do it.
It’s a good idea to have a good idea of what you’re doing.
It’s a good idea to think of a way to make it easier to collect them.
“I’m not sure. It looks like there are still survivors.
I couldn’t see them because they were hidden in the grass, but I could see one orc lying on the ground.
It’s a good sign that they’re still alive, because when they die, their bodies disappear and become magic stones.
“I’ll give it a quick kick in the nuts.
“Tania, be careful. Tania, be careful. You never know what a cornered demon might do.
“Don’t worry, it’s only an orc. They’re not my enemy. I’m sure you’ll find a way to get rid of it in no time. ……
Suddenly, an orc rose and clung to the approaching Tania.
“What’s this guy !? This …!”
Tania tries to pull the orc off, but it doesn’t work.
It’s probably because Tania is in a hurry and can’t move well because of a sudden thing, and the opponent is dying and demonstrating the stupid power of the fire place.
Tania didn’t see it
The orc clung to Tania’s body and swung a dagger made of stone at her, ……
“‘Tania!!!
The orc swung the dagger down and ……
I interjected my arm into its path.
The dagger pierced my arm, and I felt intense pain. But …….Tania is safe
“rain!?”
“Nyaa, this one !!!”
Kanade, who rushed in a hurry, pulled the orc from Tania and kicked it into the sky.
This time the orc dies and turns into a magic stone.
“Rain, are you okay !?”
“I am okay… somehow”
“But there’s so much blood ……
Tania turned her face blue and was in a hurry.
“I’m fine.
“But!
“Did you forget? I can also use healing magic. It’s beginner level, but if I have Tania’s magic, I can use ……
“Oh. ……
“Heal.
I held my palm up to my injured arm and concentrated my magic power.
I chanted a spell.
It’s a beginner’s level of recovery magic, but thanks to Tania’s magic power, the wound was quickly healed.
This is amazing.
It’s as effective as an advanced ex-heal, isn’t it?
“There, it’s back.
“Rain, does it hurt? Are you in pain?
“Thank you for your concern, Kanade. But I’m fine.
“Meow. …… Thank God.
“……”
While Kanade was relieved, Tania had a gloomy look on her face.
“What’s wrong with you?
“…… that …….”
She stammered slightly.
“……I’m sorry. ……”
“What?
What? – “Rain, I told you, didn’t I? You can find a lot of people who are looking for the best way to get the most out of their lives. It’s only an orc …….
“Well,……, I guess it can’t be helped.
Tania is the strongest species.
If the oak is wary of the other party, there is no end to it.
Despite saying such words, Tania still looks like she’s crying.
“Because of me … I injured Rain … I managed to do it with healing magic, but maybe it was irreparable … It’s my fault … My failure I’m really sorry … ”
Tania bowed deeply.
On the other hand, I …
Huh……?”
I gently stroked Tania’s head.
“Thank you, for worrying about me.”
“What? No, I mean, …… what? Aren’t you going to get angry ……?
“Just be careful next time. Besides, …… Tania is already sorry, isn’t she? There’s no point in getting angry at her.
“But it’s …… my fault that Rain is ……
“It’s okay. It’s better than Tania getting hurt.
“Aah!
She turned her shimmering eyes toward …… us.
Then she looks like she’s about to cry again.
“Silly …… . …… so Silly of you to care more about me than yourself. ……
“You’re right. Maybe I’m an idiot. Maybe I’m stupid, but that’s just the way I am.
“Why are you so ……
“Tania is one of us. We’ve only known each other for a short time. …… But strangely enough, I feel like she’s an important friend. How can I put it? I’m not sure how to describe it, but just by being with you, I can feel Tania’s kindness, and I know that she approves of us. …… So I just wanted to respond to that. …… I can’t keep my story straight. I’m not sure what to say. Anyway, it’s natural to help your friends, right? Don’t worry about it.
“…… Rain ……”
“If something like that happened again, I wouldn’t hesitate to help Tania.
“…… Stupid …… But thank you ……
Tania had a complicated look on her face, like she was crying or laughing, and once again in a small voice, she mumbled, ‘idiot.
