This is the middle of the village. There's no way the villagers won't notice this noise, but they're probably lurking in the house in fear of getting caught up in it. I don't think I can count on your help.

Taketo lowered his gun with his gaze on the bald man and threw it between himself and the bald man.

"That's right. That's good. Listen carefully to Kochira and I won't do anything wrong. Everything will be guided by the goddess."

So the bald man looked up at the sky and gestured to pray, then turned his gaze back to me and put a smile on his face.

"I know your situation. You want to get medicine for that kid, Kenneth, and give him medicine as soon as possible? Yeah, I know. When I saw the kid earlier, his face was bluish and his breath was constant. Maybe we won't have much more. You're still young, but you're pathetic."

The bald man gestures with exaggeration to ask for mercy.

"If you don't know that much, what are you doing? Guys, if you need to talk, hurry up."

Ripples and rushes become stronger inside the tacket. What a bald man is saying is not obvious. If we don't get the medicine in this bag right away, it's really dangerous.

I heard fragments and horseshoes and hissing. They're approaching us. Apparently, the folks who were tracking Forest Cat have also caught up.

I couldn't turn around because I had a blade on my neck, but I saw the men wearing robes in the sight of the tacket. He has a mace or a bow or sword in his hand. Looks like we're surrounded.

I suppose I was very concerned that my allies were back. With a spare smile, the bald man says.

"Well, here's the deal. I know you followed Forest Cat and came here. Give us Forest Cat. That way, you can let this girl go, and you can give the poor boy medicine. Let's see. Let the boy die, or help him now. It's up to you."

Kenneth's life and Chante were taken hostage, and Taketo bit his back teeth.

I wonder what to do. But now that Kenneth is suffering from disease and trying to extinguish the flame of life, there's no time to get lost.

"Okay. But the first thing you need to do is give Kenneth the medicine. Do you guys understand...? If it's too late and Kenneth dies, this deal doesn't make any sense."

Half of it is flat. Half true.

They're mistaken, but Forest Cat just helped Taketo, and Taketo didn't follow. They didn't seem to understand the relationship.

While hiding it, Taketo tries to negotiate to deliver the medicine to Kenneth as soon as possible.

However, the bald man shook his head sideways, "No, no, no."

"I don't want you to get away with that. Forest Cat first."

In the words of the bald man, the tacket whispered inside.

(Shit, can you get up?)

Nevertheless, Taketo does not have the skills to manipulate Forest Cat as he wishes. The opponent is a legendary beast in the woods. It is also a wildlife, and is highly intelligent in solving human language. There's no way you can manipulate such creatures as humans want.

However, because of their high intelligence, they can judge themselves and act on their own. It was nothing more than Forest Cat's will to bring me this bait.

Taketo gently looks around to avoid being noticed by bald men and men with leather armor.

Forest Cat disappeared at the entrance to the village. I don't know where I am right now. Maybe he's still in the village and he's listening to this story.

(Don't come out. Forest Cat. You have to live in your world. You don't have to stick your neck to human circumstances)

Even if it was to help my best friend... maybe Kenneth.

I want to save Kenneth's life. But it wasn't up to Taketo to sacrifice Forest Cat for that.

The tacket carefully looks around to see if there is anything that can be used. I want something that can help me get things started.

At that time, in the air of the village surrounded by the soft light of the morning. In the light of the sun, I felt like I saw something "red" for a moment. Sole that seemed to burst into the air.

Before Sole could figure something out with his head, the tacket was like an animal conjecture.

That's... blood. Bleeding from the wound caused by the arrow earlier.

"Chante, get down!

The tacket screams.

Suddenly Chante opened her eyes to surprise, but moved quickly. Avoid the blade pointing behind you as much as you can, and crouch down as you can.

Huh?

The bald head was surprised by the sudden behavior. But before the bald head moved on to the next action, his body suddenly blew up laterally. It was like a sudden collision with an invisible car. The bald head's body flew ten meters and fell into the grass.

"Priest!?

The skin-armored man behind the tacket raised his impatient voice. I don't know what happened and it must have upset me, and I can't help it. The same was true of the robes surrounding him. Nobody understands what happened. Except for the one guy who took the bait.

The tacket pressed his body against the priest's body, following the gap that the consciousness of the leather armor pointed at him. My skin armor is staggering. Taking advantage of that moment to escape the skin armor constraints, the tacket rushed out. Skin armor quickly got back on track, but sooner rather than that, the tacket picked up the Spirit Gun that had fallen on the ground and turned its muzzle towards the Skin Armor.

The gun was pointed and the leather armor stopped his feet.

On the other hand, Chante immediately stood up and ran toward the tacket.

I'd like to remove the shackles and monkeys from your back immediately, but I'm a little sorry because I can't put the gun down right now.

Skinny armor is pointing the tip of the sword at us to confront the Taketto's gun. Tension drifting. But...

Bash.

With a dry sound, one of the robes surrounding the taxis now blew up.

The other Goddess Church people started screaming and screaming.

Looks like you finally noticed. The fact that they're being attacked by something they can't see.

Bash.

This time, the robe that was on the other side of the victim blew up.

And then...

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

Everyone on the spot fought in a low voice that could be heard from nowhere.

A low, aggressive voice echoing from the bottom of the earth.

I can hardly hear footsteps. Occasionally, I just hear a slight noise kicking the ground.

"Don't you see? He's the one you tried to catch. You guys... did you really think you could follow me as you please?

The tacket says quietly.

"This is the Forest Cat you wanted. A giant, wild beast who barely knows humans. You made him angry. To him, we humans are like rats to cats."
