The view from outside the door.

It was a forest that I had been walking before.

The maze created by Xeon had already disappeared, so the surroundings were clearly exposed.

“uh? It’s Kyler!”

“What? where?”

The group waiting for us in the clearing hurriedly approached us.

“Kyler, are you okay? Are you not hurt?”

Jetty, who approached me first, flapped her wings and examined every nook and cranny of my body.

The water in her big eyes seemed to be very worried.

“Nothing. Because I’m not the only one who’s going to suffer this much.”

“As expected of Kyler.”

Erina pouting at me like that.

“Wow, I’m really proud of myself, so my worries are completely gone.”

“You mean you were worried.”

“Yeah… We are friends.”

Seeing him say things like that without hesitation makes me think that he seems to have gotten quite close with Erina.

“Mr Kylers. I’m glad you’re okay.”

“Thanks to Toby-sama, I was able to escape without much difficulty.”

At my words, Harold’s gaze turned to Toby.

“Please say something to Toby and leave. I was really surprised when he suddenly disappeared.”

“Right. I am surprised that no one here has magical knowledge except Uncle Toby.”

“Haha, sorry about this. If I get stuck on one, I can’t pay attention to my surroundings.”

Erina sighed lightly as she saw Toby scratching his head.

“Well, if you’re like an old man, you’re acting like an old man. It was often like that in the castle of demons.”

The atmosphere of the party was very bright, perhaps because I had returned safely.

But there were still issues to be addressed.

It’s about Xeon.

“there… But who is this friend?”

Zeon, who is sticking out his head in my arms, and Jetty meet eyes.

There was an awkward air current for a while.

But that’s for a while.

“Hello, my name is Jetty.”

Jetty greeted me with his unique affinity.

Jeon seems a little taken aback by the sudden approach of Jetty.

“Zeon. When the other person greets you, you have to accept it.”

-uh? Oh, my name is Xeon.

“Nice to meet you. Let’s be friendly.”

Jetty smiles like an idiot.

That smile had the effect of putting the other person at ease.

The same goes for Xeon.

Xeon reached out and started touching Jetty’s body.

– He’s a soft friend.

“Hehe. You can touch me more.”

– You have wings like me. can you fly too

“Of course.

Just like Jetty, who never gets pushed around when it comes to cuteness, Zeon has a very cute appearance.

The combination of the two naturally made me laugh.

‘As expected, cute appearance is the biggest weapon to reduce vigilance.’

If Xeon was a monster with a savage and disgusting appearance, everyone would have been wary of it.

However, the innocent child’s appearance was planting a crush on everyone.

Of course, that was the story before hearing the true identity.

“But who is that child? Where did you meet?”

“That guy is a demon who settled in this forest.”

“yes?”

For a moment, Erina tilted her head, wondering if she had heard it wrong.

“that… Who?”

“They said it was a demon.”

At the same time as my words, the surroundings fell into silence.

It was Albion who broke the silence.

“That guy attacked and harmed our villagers?”

Looking at his face, he looks pretty upset.

In a way, it is natural

From Albion’s point of view, it was like a culprit who had caused damage in various ways without knowing why.

‘As expected, I had to hide Xeon.’

A brief discussion with Toby before leaving the barrier.

It was about whether to hide Zeon’s identity.

Demonic spirits are extremely rare.

In many ways, it was bound to attract attention, and problems could arise.

Above all, since Zeon had caused damage to the blue bear clan, it had to be seen that it was difficult to receive good attention.

The fact that Xeon, who hadn’t learned much, caused damage even if it was a joke didn’t disappear.

‘Toby said he wanted to hide Xeon.’

I also tried to do that at first.

But thinking about it, that wasn’t the answer.

I plan to show and teach Xeon various things, but it’s not right to hide it from the start.

It was better to apologize to everyone for their mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

He is a child, only about 3 years old.

Although she was born with strong power, she did not know how to use that power properly, causing harm to many people.

It is a story that can change enough if taught properly.

‘It was a decision I could choose because no one lost their lives or suffered major injuries.’

If the members of the blue bear clan had suffered unbearable damage, it might have been difficult to reveal.

In other words, it could be said that Xeon is not such a vicious guy.

Now it’s my turn to convince them.

“Calm down, Albion.”

“But if that guy is really that demon… It is not something to just pass on.”

“Of course it is. But this guy acted like that without knowing anything.”

“What do you mean?”

I started to confide in Xeon one by one.

life so far. And about why he attacked the blue brown bear clan.

After a while.

“Um… .”

After hearing the story, Albion slightly frowned.

“After hearing it, it’s not that I don’t understand it.”

“Honestly, with this guy’s ability, it wouldn’t be strange even if he took a lot of damage. But in the end, it ended up just fainting.”

“That’s right. It was just like the blue bear clan, it scared us and blocked our way.”

Erina also nodded at my words.

“I plan to make a direct apology to the blue bear clan and ask them to forgive me. So, why don’t you just move on?”

“i get it. If you say so, I will believe you.”

Albion readily accepted.

I’m glad it turned out to be easier than I thought.

He wasn’t a tight guy either.

“Now then, let’s go back to the village.”

“I get it.”

Read at readwn. com

Unlike the first time, we headed towards the village with very light steps and expressions.

* * *

Waiting for us when we arrived at the village was the chief of the blue brown bear clan.

“Wow… It is a very big bear.”

Jetty exclaims.

I couldn’t think of any other word to describe the presence before my eyes.

‘It’s really big.’

Albion also had a size that was above average, but the existence in front of him was a bear boasting a body so large that Albion seemed dwarfed.

The scars and muscles all over his body showed that he was a very good fighter.

I greeted them on behalf of the party.

“hello. This is Kyler Diablick.”

“Nice to meet you. My name is Oliver Blanc, the chief of the Blue Bear Clan.”

Considering his age and reputation, Harold should have stepped forward.

However, because I am a friend of Albion and I was the one who planned this visit, Harold recommended that I come forward.

“I have heard all the stories. You said that everything that happened in our village was because of the existence of a demon?”

“That’s right. Xeon, come here.”

-okay.

Zeon, who was playing with Jetty from behind, flew forward.

“This child here is that demon.”

Oliver’s eyes showed a little wariness and curiosity.

“I can’t believe this little spirit did that… .”

“I would appreciate it if you could think of it as an immature child playing a prank with a broad tolerance. It happened because there was no one to teach me because no one was around.”

-Sorry. It was because Xeon was lonely by himself.

Xeon bowed his head.

Seeing that, Oliver sighed lightly.

“So you’re saying there won’t be any problems in the future?”

“Now Xeon will leave with me, so there will be no problems with the blue brown bear clan.”

“All right. If so, I accept your apology on behalf of the clan. No one was seriously injured and the slight damage to the forest is laughable.”

Oliver accepts his apology more easily than expected.

Now that the chief of the clan had spoken, it seemed like I wouldn’t have to worry about any more problems with Xeon.

“Thank you again to all of you who stepped forward for our village.”

Oliver thanked the party one by one.

“It’s a friend’s job, so of course you have to step in.”

“I am proud that my son has such great friends.”

“Did you say son?”

“The Albion over there is my son.”

At the unexpected words, his head turned back on its own.

Then I saw Albion scratching his head with an awkward expression.

There was a difference in size for sure, but the faces were very similar.

‘I was wondering if I heard the surname Blanc after the name.’

He was not a member of an ordinary village, but the son of a chieftain.

The Albion guy could also be seen as having a higher status than expected.

“The troubles in the village have been resolved, and since precious guests have arrived, we must have a party today.”

“You don’t have to go that far.”

“no. It’s our clan’s rule to repay double, whether it’s grudge or favor. Please do not refuse.”

Having said that, it was hard to say no.

I had no intention of going back to the academy right away anyway, so I thought it would be okay to take a day off.

“Then I will take care of you for one day.”

“Come on, I’ll let you eat our clan’s specialties to your heart’s content, so look forward to it.”

Albion put a hand on my shoulder and pushed me into the village.

“great. Let’s look forward to it.”

An unexpected party was held.

* * *

A party opened suddenly.

Looking around, there was only one thing that caught my eye.

right bear.

Little bear, big bear.

Little bear, old bear.

male bear, female bear.

In short, it was a bear field.

‘It’s a village belonging to the blue brown bear clan, but of course.’

It’s rather strange if there are other people besides the bear.

And the bears were now scattered here and there hanging out with their companions.

‘It’s definitely bears, so the food is amazing.’

It was a party that happened suddenly, but it was by no means shabby in scale.

The food is so full that it is not awkward to say that the upper leg is broken.

The variety of food was perfect for a group of mixed races.

meat, fruit and vegetables.

The food made using all kinds of ingredients was delicious and the quantity was sufficient.

“Milk is delicious.”

-Is this milk?

“yes. This is honey.”

– This is delicious too!

Jetty took Zeon around and tasted various foods.

The two of them became friends faster than I thought, probably because they were of the same age.

‘I was worried that he would adapt well, but there shouldn’t be any problems.’

And the baby bears were hanging out together beside Jetty and Zeon.

It’s a sight that people who like cute things won’t come down.

I looked around to find another group.

‘Let’s see.’

Erina was frantically eating food in the distance.

Albion was grilling meat hard and carrying it.

Harold was sharing a drink with the stalwart bears.

‘Where’s Toby?’

The figure of an owl that stands out everywhere.

No matter how large the town is and how many people there are, if you try to find it, you can find it quickly.

‘There you are. Well?’

Toby was sipping something from a tall tree.

I threw myself at Toby.

“What are you doing here alone?”

“Well? Oh, I have something to think about for a moment.”

“They don’t hang out together.”

“You can do that later. There are more important matters than that.”

“What are you doing?”

Instead of answering, Toby looked at me strangely.

Intense eyes as if searching for something.

It was sharp enough to make me flinch in an instant.

After a while, Toby’s mouth slowly opened.

“Kyler Diablick. Don’t you know I’m hiding my powers?”

did you get caught?
