“…”

…again silence falls in the place. But this time I felt that the chances of Horo accepting were much higher than before! Still, as she seriously considered my words… I couldn't help but feel a little nervous! After all, it depended on her answer that my wallet would no longer bleed!!

“Well… if what you say is true, then that place seems to be much more interesting.”

"It is! It really is!!

…w-well, that place also has its dangers, but you will not be alone. I and the people on my side will surely support you! You do not have to worry!!”

“ Umu… okay, I'll follow you to that place then. But if you lied to me… then I will devour you~”

“…”

I could finally breathe a sigh of relief, she had agreed to go with me! Without a doubt, she would be of great help with the things we have to do now! I could be even calmer to be able to complete that system mission!

...And of course, my pocket also appreciated it!

As for her threat that she says with a smile after she sees me relax, it didn't matter much…it's not like I was lying. Also… hearing those words from a beautiful naked girl isn't very threatening… in fact, I couldn't help my thoughts from drifting a bit!!

“…”

“ F-Fine… then, shall we go? ”

Feeling as if she could see into my mind, I try to divert her attention quickly! R-Right… I must not forget the possibility that her nose is really sensitive to these issues. Although she might not be able to read my thoughts, at least she shouldn't have a problem smelling the arousal on my body!

…Th-that was dangerous! I should try my best not to screw things up until everything is set in stone! 

"So... do we have to go now?"

“…do you have any earrings in your world? Do you still want to go to your hometown? ”

Suddenly, she averted her gaze staring into the emptiness of this space... she was probably remembering some things... and thinking back to her previous words, I could only imagine was about that.

Perhaps it was best not to bring up that subject... but, seeing the nostalgia in her eyes, those words inevitably come out of my mouth. If it were another time, I wouldn't mind going and helping her settle those things so she could come with me without any regrets, but now if I wanted to do that, then it would be a bit troublesome… no, quite troublesome! I didn't have the time to make a small detour in the things I had to do now!

“…No, I just wanted to go back there to see if I could find some acquaintances. Also… I thought it was a good place to end it all.”

“…”

…d-don't tell me she wanted to kill himself or something once she get to that place? That's... quite sad! I could notice that she was tired of living… perhaps there was nothing to motivate her in that world anymore. Living for a long time also has its problems it seems… but I think this is mainly because most of the time she was alone.

That's why one of the reasons why I want the girls next to me to get stronger too is to avoid something like that! I don't want to have a long life to be alone like Horo!! 

Well, given a little time, she'll surely perk up a bit. Although some girls might complain about me bringing another one to the mansion, I'm sure she'll be able to make friends with some of them easily.

"Come on... I'm sure you'll find a better place to which to belong and also other interesting things where we're going."

"…I understand."

Before we disappear from this blank world, I can see a sweet smile that matched the girl in front of me perfectly...

---------------

---------------

When I open my eyes again, Shigure and Saeko were by my side looking at the scroll that shone with more intensity than before... its light slowly takes the form of a person, and then Horo, whom I had met a few moments before, appears in front of us!

"...Wasn't a monster you would summon, Alex-san?"

“B-ut... she has ears and a tail…”

Seeing her, those are the words that come out of those two the moment they see Horo. As for Saeko's question... more than a complaint about the appearance of another girl, possibly she just wanted confirmation of her doubts since I had previously told them that I would try to summon a monster to help us do the mission we had.

Shigure, on the other hand, seemed curious about Horo… or more precisely, about her tail and ears which were undoubtedly what would first catch the attention of others. Although it's hard to tell from her almost lack of expression, I'm sure she was dying to try to pet these! 

...And I also!!

“Well… it seems that what you said was not a lie. It's the first time I feel such a big threat from a human…”

Before I can explain things to the two next to me, Horo's eyes are taken by the two who spoke…and quickly her attention is focused on Shigure! 

Well, I could understand what she was saying... among us, she was the one with the highest level! So, being a beast, it's normal that her instinct informs her of the dangerous people.

“…c-an I pet your ears and tail?”

"…no"

““…””

W-Well… maybe the danger that Horo felt was due to something else… Shigure's look was quite intense and, after they both look at each other for a few seconds, finally the latter can't bear to put her wishes into words!

“Alexander…”

“…”

Hell, don't ask me after she refused! Although technically she should count as my new monster… I don't think my words would do much to change her mind! Also, I had that same problem myself, you know?!

…now it looks like it won't be that easy to see how soft and fluffy those ears and tail were!

“But… what is this place? Why… is it so empty?”

“Well… I'll explain all things to you soon.

For now, we should introduce ourselves, right? Like I already said, I'm Alexander, this is Saeko, and… the slightly depressed girl is called Shigure”

" Umu, I'm Yuitsu 's wise wolf, Horo. "

…when our hands touch after I hold out my hand in greeting and she responds favorably to this, immediately afterward a connection is formed between us…this must be my tame ability activating!

"…what was that?"

"W-Well... It seems like some kind of contract was formed between us... B-But don't worry, it shouldn't be a bad thing."

“ Hooo ~…are you trying to trick me?”

Shit, this really felt like I had tricked her into bringing her here and then making her a slave! I don't blame her for smiling showing me her fangs as if she was trying to threaten me!!

“Cute…”

“…if you touch me, I will bite you…”

“Alexander…”

It seems that Shigure hadn't given up… she had been sneaking up on her as if looking for an opportunity to pet her ears! Unfortunately, since Horo is at a higher level than her, I think it would be difficult to achieve even if she tried to do it discreetly!

Besides, I agreed with Shigure's words… maybe Horo was trying to look threatening, but… honestly that only made her look even cuter! 

On the other hand, as I said, don't ask me! Shigure, can't you see that I already have problems of my own?!!

“I-I swear! I have no bad intentions towards you! It's a skill of mine that activates by itself!! ”

“…Well, I certainly don't feel any ill intent in this. You are forgiven~”

“…”

[ Beep ]

[Contract established successfully ]

[Magic: Earth Affinity up to [10% Comprehension]]

[Magic: [Hardening] Learned]

…oh~, this is a windfall!! 

I had forgotten what Aurora mentioned earlier! Thanks to the fact that I had formed a contract with Horo, I had finally learned some magic! I could feel some information being transmitted through our link!!

Although… to be honest, the magical abilities that Horo had were quite simple. In fact, they weren't offensive at all!

[Congratulations, Alexander. It seems that she has knowingly or unknowingly recognized you as her partner… or as a potential partner~]

Well, it's true, instead of concentrating on the not-so-good things, it's better that I think positively as Aurora says! At least I think now we can count on Horo's help for our goals.

"Well, then now I'll explain things to you..."

"…It's okay"

Thinking about that, I decided to start explaining our whole situation to her… the more I told her about this, her frown grew even more! Come to think of it... it doesn't seem like what I'm saying to Horo now is quite the same as my words in the blank world!!

"...Looks like you really lied to me, right?"

"N-No... I-I think it's more like I didn't have time to explain things properly at all... I-I'm sorry!!"

“…”

Yeah, well… I forgot to mention that we were stuck in this world for a few months now! Also, perhaps the most important of all… that this place was full of titans who liked to eat people!!

“Well… either way, it seems like things are more interesting now~

Umu …so you say that I can also get stronger until I become a god? It's funny... although before many people called me that way, I never consider myself one... or rather, I knew I was far from being something like that.

But it seems that now I have the possibility to reach that level… I wonder if I should try to achieve it? ”

“Well, you can take your time quietly to consider that… after all, we are still far from being able to reach such a level.”

"…you are right. 

For now, should we go see and kill some of those titans you said earlier? You say that these have crystals that can help me become stronger, right? ”

“…”

What can I say? Horo was a girl who quickly adapted to the situation she was in... I wonder if it's due to having lived so long... after all, she had more than 1000 years from what I could see in her status! 

Or maybe my thinking was wrong from the beginning… she wasn't a girl, she was a monster!! So maybe it's not entirely correct to think that her mentality would be the same as that of a human!

Either way, she also had some interesting abilities that could be seen in this one. The first thing that caught my attention was that she really had a great sense of smell! Well, she had already mentioned it herself, but… seeing it for myself gives a more real impression about it!

…L-Let's try not to think about that for now.

Another interesting thing about her status, was the [Wisdom] ability… although for a human having this would not be of much help, in the case of beasts or monsters it was a big difference! This was the reason why she could speak and behave very similarly to a person.

Another one of her abilities was obvious… no, wait. Although I had seen her human form all this time, Horo still didn't show her wolf form! Besides, this was something quite important! The strategy to follow will depend on this!

“ Horo-san… you're a wolf, right? ”

“ Hmn? Of course, I've already said it several times, right? ”

"So... can I see your wolf form?"

“…”

I thought this would be a simple request for her, but… I could see some reluctance to transform into a wolf. Her eyes bored into me and there was a little concern in these.

"…I do not want"

"Eh? Why?! ”

“…because I don't like how humans look at me when they see me in that form. It's always the same… their eyes are filled with terror and fear when they see me like this! ”

“E- Ermm… well, I can assure you that I've seen worse things… which is quite sad now that I think about it! 

W-Well, it doesn't matter… I'm sure that won't be a problem for us”

…I don't think seeing a girl transform into a wolf would traumatize me…or it would be much less of an impact than seeing men blown to bits, swallowed by zombies…half-naked muscular men…child prostitution, and now people being chewed up by giants!

…fuck the last three things are the worst!

[One of those reasons I think is more of a kind of personal phobia…]

...yeah, well...maybe.

"...fine, but you have to promise not to be scared"

"Oh, don't worry...it's sad, but I think my mind is more than damaged now...maybe I should find a therapist..."

"I-It's okay, Alex-san... I-I don't think you're that affected"

“… Yosh~ Yosh~”
