137 – Please Find the Cat (6)
When I returned to the guild, the guild members had not yet slept and were gathered in the living room to play.
Leah was still sitting at the reception desk, busy working on something, and she was busy mopping the floor, so the only people she actually played with were Celestine and Lucene.
“Rain,,, turn it on,,, feet,,, get rid of it,,,”
As Ttukgi continued to push Lucene’s feet her her while mopping, Lucene lifted her leg and placed it on Ttoktwi’s head her her her her.
“Inooooo,,,, oooooh,,, ooooom,,,”
Celestine is sitting and reading a book while scratching her stomach.
Does he know how to read books?
Ornette held the paper bag dearly and ran across the living room and up to the second floor.
Lucene saw that and looked at me over the back of the sofa and asked.
“Did you have a good time?”
“Okay.”
“Did you do it?”
“Stop talking crazy.”
“What are you doing?”
Silly Celestine asked, widening her eyes without knowing anything.
“That and that.”
“What is that?”
“You know what. Like this and that, huh? Squeak, squeak, squeak.”
“Huh?!”
As she clicked her tongue and entered her guild leader’s room, Leana followed her in.
“How was it?”
“Well, it wasn’t that bad. I seemed to feel better when I bought him clothes and bracelets.”
“That’s good. So, are you going to go request a cat tomorrow as usual?”
“I have to go. I received the gold bars, but I have no idea how to return them.”
“That’s right. If we go together with Lucene, we’ll be able to fully respond to anything that happens.”
This is a request for a cat.
Honestly, I’m most curious.
What kind of client is this that even offers a gold bar to catch a cat?
It is very likely that it is a tiger or a similar level of monster raised illegally.
I once made such a request.
They said it was a puppy, so I went there and found a monster the size of a house drooling.
In the end, it’s a cat request, but in reality, it’s a monster hunt, so it’s better to assume it and go.
Whether it’s a cat or a monster, there’s no big problem.

Orne lay down on the bed and kept turning his bracelet around.
A blue jewel bracelet bought by Leonard.
It goes really well with Ornette’s silver hair.
Was it really a good thing to confess to Leonard today?
Wouldn’t Leonard have been offended when he heard that?
No, I won’t.
Leonard is not that kind of person.
On the contrary, he might have lied and said that he liked me out of sympathy.
That’s why I told you not to say anything because I was scared.
Even if I say I don’t like it or say it’s okay, it’s all hurtful to me.
I really hate this kind of personality.
At that time, someone knocked on the door from outside.
“Owner,,,,,,, it’s okay to come in,,,,,,,”
“Come in.”
The door opened and Ddukduk waddled in.
“Lord, did you have a good time?”
“Yes. Look at this.”
Ornet held out his bracelet.
“Leonard bought this for me.”
“Master,,, ke,,, very,,, well,, suitable,,, lipni,,, everything,,,”
“Is that so? I think so too.”
“What kind of spirit did the devil, the hunter, share with you?”
Ornette thought for a moment.
I don’t know if I can speak clearly.
But there is no one to talk to except Ttaktik.
And because Smart understands everything I say.
“I told Leonard that I liked him.”
Smart listened to Ornette’s story in silence.
“I said that I was so confused by the fact that I like him but I don’t like him. I didn’t know either. But he said that he was telling me because he felt like he would die if I didn’t tell him, and that I should carry on as usual regardless of my feelings.”
“The devil,,, hunter,,, is,,, what,,, did,,, eupni,,, how,,,”
“I told you not to tell me. I was scared to hear any answer.”
“Yes,,, eupni,,, ka,,,”
Smarty said after looking at Ornette for a moment.
“Master ,,,, I am a master ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ight ,,, it is,,,”
“I know. I will always be grateful.”
“I dare,,, say,,,,,,,,,,,,, master,,,,,,, master,,, mind,,,,,,,gossip,,, go,,,,”
“Is that okay…? Leonard will hate me. Even if he doesn’t hate me, just because I like him doesn’t mean he has to like me.”
“Yes, the town,,,,,,,,, but,,,,,,,,,,, the owner,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, for, for, for,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,… ,, First,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, , ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, , ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, , ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, , ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,…
“I see…”
“If the owner is happy, there will be no reward whatsoever.” ,, It is,,, so,,,”
Ttuktwi extended his arm and patted Ornett on the shoulder.
“Master, please make a decision in a direction that will make you happy”
“Okay, okay. I’ll do that. Thank you.”
“Well, now, go to sleep,,,”
The lid above Ddukduk’s head opened, and a starlight laser shot out onto the ceiling.
With the Milky Way decorating the ceiling in the background, a lullaby flowed from Tttokki.
A lullaby that Orléans had sung in advance, assuming the slight possibility of having a child in the very future.
Ornette slowly fell into sleep while listening to the lullaby sung by the high wizard who created her.

The next day, we prepared to catch the cat in question.
The place we went through the portal was a forest about a day’s distance west of Shlessi.
It was a very dense forest filled with upright trees that soared as high as the sky.
It’s a bit of an odd terrain in a principality that mostly consists of shallow hills.
I looked around, but I couldn’t see any cities or houses, but there was an open road into the forest.
That road is used by loggers, and as we went a little further in, we saw a logging site in full swing.
Loggers are working hard to cut into pieces a tree that is almost as thick as the waist of the Great Devil, holding long saws from both sides.
It must be very difficult to cut something that would be difficult to cut with a chainsaw with a saw like that.
Workers holding spears were seen around the logging site.
They are not cutting down trees, but are watching the inside of the forest with tense eyes.
It definitely looks like it’s not a cat.
“Hey, let me ask you something.”
As we approached, the workers shouted something harshly and held out their windows.
“I came from the Lucas Guild in Shlessi.”
“A guild? Lucas’s guild? That demon hunter?”
“Yes. That’s right. “I came to catch the cat that is said to haunt here.”
“Cat?”
The workers put down their windows and looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
“What are you talking about? A cat?”
“Yes, that’s the request, but I’m guessing it’s not a cat. I’d like to get some information about it.”
“It’s not a cat, it’s a demon, Mr. Demon Hunter.”
Is that really the case?
“I’m so tired from coming here every night and having a hard time sleeping. Yesterday, he came and tore off the door, so I barely got him out.”
At the place the worker pointed with the window, there were long huts on either side.
The door to the temporary lodgings where the loggers live has fallen off.
“We have to make a living right now, so we keep working, but I don’t know. We made a request to the garrison, but they said hunting is not their responsibility, so we were considering asking the guild as well.”
“Is that so? Then we will take care of it for you.”
“Then we are grateful.”
The workers’ faces turned bright red.
I went to the cabin and looked closely at the broken door.
Lucene bent down next to her and opened her mouth.
“It’s not a cat.”
There are no traces of claws on the door.
“It was torn off with great force. It is not an animal.”
“Then is it a monster?”
“Even among monsters, it’s humanoid. If it wasn’t humanoid, I’d rather break it in than rip off the hinges like this.”
“Hmm, then what is it? Oger?”
“The ogre is so big that when it goes in, even the door frame has to be broken. It’s smaller than that.”
“So it’s a troll?”
I looked back at the forest.
Trees that stretch straight.
“It’s not a place where entities large enough to fit through the gate can live. Maybe the southern jungle would be better.”
“I don’t know. Anyway, I’m sure it’s not a cat.”
“I don’t know. I don’t know if there is a separate cat or this.”
“That too.”
“Wait a minute. I’ll check in more detail.”
She got down on her knees and activated her blind gaze.
That’s strange.
I can’t feel anything.
There should be a common body odor, but for some reason I can’t detect it at all.
Tear off the door without even a single hair and go in and drag the victim out?
Judging by the fact that there are no visible traces, is it possible that they were not dragged but thrown on their backs?
“Lucene.”
“Is there something?”
“It’s a monster. But it’s going to be a pain in the ass.”
Lucene scratched his head after hearing my explanation.
“That guy is a really shit guy. Why is a guy like that here?”
“I don’t know. It definitely doesn’t look like a cat.”
“Seup, how do you catch it?”
“I have to go undercover.”
Then I looked at Celestine.
Celestine, who was standing still, made eye contact with her and grinned like an idiot.
* * * * *
That night.
Celestine was sitting on a chair in front of the workers’ hut.
A bait that is plump and soft and looks quite soft.
I go up to the roof right behind him and lurk with the ‘owl on my back’.
The owl on the back is a demon hunter’s skill, a stealth technique that hides without emitting any trace to the outside.
Now that Ornette’s invisibility magic has been applied, I am in a state where it is as if I do not exist in this world.
Only the goddess who rules this world will know that I am here.
Celestine looked for me, looking around with her anxious eyes.
Just wait a moment, Celestine.
It will be over soon.
After a while, something appeared on a tree in the forest over there.
