Such being the case, Ill have to hunt a lot of monsters!

As I explained to Divine Beast Fenrir-sama and tried to stand up, Little Fenrir jumped towards me.

He then let out Kyuun Kyuun and wagged his tail as if saying Take me with you, and stared at my face. (TLN: Ill be using he until its gender is mentioned)

As I looked towards Divine Beast Fenrir-sama, she stopped it, saying Give up, just take him along.

Umm, but Ill be fighting monsters, you know? Itll be dangerous, you know?

As I said that, Divine Beast Fenrir-sama showed an expression of anger in an instant, and said this.

That collar, if they werent restricted by the orders on it , they wont lose even to the likes of the monsters around this area

Now that she mentioned it, the little Fenrirs are all wearing black collars.

Name: Slave Collar

A collar with slave magic sealed into it.

This is a Slave Collar, huh.

Ive heard of it before.

By attaching it onto someones neck before carrying out specific arrangements and pouring magic power in, the person will then be unable to go against the orders of the owner of the collar.

Unlike other abilities, this ability can only be operated with the permission from the country.

Those guys probably obtained it illegally or are collaborating with someone who received permission from the country.

Either way, King-sama would be able to understand what is happening if I handed His Majesty this, right?

Even so, attaching such a thing on these kids my anger towards the adventurers from before welled up once more.

I wonder if I can somehow get this off of them.

Ive heard that someone tries to use brute force to take it off, itll detonate, so I cant approach this carelessly.

Un.

Isnt there some kind of good idea.

The only ability I have which stands a chance is probably Unique MagicSpace-time, huh.

For the time being, lets try experimenting.

I activated Unique MagicSpace-time towards a pebble I placed on my palm.

I did not imagine a dark vortex, but imagined sending the pebble itself flying into a separate space.

No good, nothings happened.

When I verified the Skill previously, using a black vortex, I was able to move to another place in an instant.

In that case, I imagine the pebble itself clad thinly in a black vortex.

I then piled the image of flicking off the pebble, which failed earlier, onto it.

As I did that, the pebble disappeared from my palm, and appeared in the air a little further away and fell to the ground.

I did it!

I reflexively shouted.

Myne, what did you just do?

Divine Beast Fenrir-sama who stared at me fixedly seems like she didnt understand what had happened.

I used Unique MagicSpace-time which I cut from an Orc King.

Listen up, you guys, dont move

Saying that, I used Unique MagicSpace-time on the collar attached to the neck of the little Fenrir who had been snuggling up to me since a while ago.

I feel like it would be bad if I am impatient and the black vortex touches the little Fenrir, so I carefully and slowly operated it.

Yosh! With this its a success!!!!

It went according to plan, like the previous experimental results, the collar vanished and like the pebble from before, it appeared in the air a little further away and dropped to the ground.

I then continued detaching the collars from the other children.

Uoooooooooooo

Seeing the collars gone from the little Fenrirs necks, Divine Beast Fenrir-sama raised her voice in delight.

In order to hand the Slave Collars I dismantled to King-sama, I did not leave them alone and tossed each of them into my storage bag without fail.

Itll be good if this can help settle the case.

After that, I was thanked by Divine Beast Fenrir-sama with all her heart (More specifically, I was jumped at and had my whole face licked), and all of the little Fenrirs got on me and nuzzled against my whole body.

If this was seen from outside, itd definitely look like I was attacked by several wolves, wouldnt it?

After receiving their intense gratitude, my whole body was splendidly worn-out (?).

Though my hunting was completely postponed by the collars, Ill be returning to it for now

While lightly dusting off the mud and the Divine Beasts fur over my whole body, I said that, and all of a sudden, I heard a voice that felt like it was resounding within my mind.

Thats right, well also assist you as thanks

Eh!? What was that voice?

Theres no need to be surprised, right now I am bestowing my divine protection on you

This voice, dont tell me, Divine Beast-sama!?

Name: Myne

Race: Hume

Age: 15years

Occupation: Hunter

Skill

Direct Hit new!

Pursuit Attack new!

Divine Beasts Divine Protection (TLN: Sounds awkward. Any suggestions?)

Telepathy Fenrir new!

Uwa, something was added!? Telepathy is it thanks to this divine protection that I am hearing this voice?

That is correct, even without using your mouth, you will be able to converse with our kind in this way.

If something is troubling you, you can discuss with us at any time

Somehow, this is becoming more and more amazing, you know?

Just now was friends, and now its divine protection!? Whats so good about me, I wonder.

Now then, why are you idling about? You have to hunt, dont you?

Well, I said this before, but our family will be helping you, so itll probably end quickly

Saying that, Divine Beast Fenrir-sama vanished into the forest.

And, the little Fenrirs are staring at me, saying Take us with you to hunt, take us with you, while frolicking by my feet.

Fuhaha, Myne. They seem to be greatly pleased with you.

Wont you take them with you? The children will be happy. They wont be a hindrance to you

Phew, Ive gotten the seal of approval from the parent Divine Beast Fenrir-sama.

They surely wont be a problem when it comes to battle power.

Furthermore, if theyre so attached to me, I cant possibly not bring them with me.

Well then, lets go together! But you absolutely musnt force yourselves

Yay, yay, yaaay

Thus, I set out to hunt with the little Fenrirs.

However, this will be against the rules, so Ill just accept their goodwill, and only put the ones I hunted into the storage bag for the game.

What? The other force we sent deep into the forest hasnt come back, you say?

A report came in stating that the adventurers I gave directions to capture rare monsters hasnt come back.

The Divine Spirit Forest is a place with a grandiose name.

I guessed that there would surely be rare monsters deep within the forest, so I dispatched twenty people, centred around B-rank adventurers, who arent participating in the game.

I sent them out, expecting them to capture lucrative prey like the dragon hatchling caught by coincidence the other day, but.

If they really dont come back, Id be wasting an unimaginable amount of money. Tch, useless bastards.

Claude, is it really okay?

The heir of the Birtild family, Herketh, my ally, called out to me worriedly.

This guy has a good face, but he isnt very dependable, or unsatisfactory.

Those who are nobles, have to act more imposingly.

Let alone heirs, theyll have to be all the more imposing.

Herketh, what are you referring to?

Everything, thats the way this game is.

No matter how many plans we put together, can we really win with just this?

Claude, you do remember that well be disinherited if we were to lose, right?

I was thinking what he was talking about, so he meant this.

Herketh, you have to firstly understand that you are a noble.

Moreover, even if that brat is stronger than we expected,

Our victory has been decided from the start, so dont worry

Yes, this is a match where our victory has been decided from the start.

Tomorrow, at about this time, well probably be drunk on high-grade sake, celebrating our victory.

I wish tomorrow would come faster.

AN:

Thank you very much for always reading.

Please take care of me from now on as well.
