S-rated demons.
That's what the humans decide for the Rock Bird.

In this world, there are ranks from SS to F class, according to the danger level of the monster.
Aside from the danger level, there's the demon value, which also ranges from SS to F class.
Among them, the danger and value of the rock bird are both S-ranked.
This is a level that first-class adventurers can finally defeat by forming a coalition team, and even world-renowned heroes can't kill it.
This amazing bird chick is right now relaxing on my head. It's so heavy.

But if the monster is that great, wouldn't I be pretty famous if I could handle it?

"That's why it's so dangerous to be famous. Don't you remember what happened with Dora?　Rock bird meat is one of the world's seven great delicacies and even the chicks don't change that.

Seriously? I want one, but I can't eat it.
So you mean to say that if we find out that there are rock bird chicks here, we're going to get another rumbling adventurer?
Hmm, that's definitely a hassle.

And I also have another concern.

And now, in an unusually sane mood, Phytis opens his mouth.

"It's what we do with the food,

"Bait?

You know a little bit about the rock bird, don't you?　Right now, though, when it grows, it's going to be huge enough to grab an elephant. It's not very big, but when it's mature, the rock bird will exceed the limits of what you can feed it with your hands.

Ta, sure!　As expected, I can't even tolerate a pet that can eat a whole elephant!

I guess so: ....... So how about we take care of him here for now until he's an adult and then let him go when he can fly?

Well, I think that's appropriate.

Lily nods in agreement with me. The rock bird is sleeping on top of my head, unaware of such things.
I thought at the time that I should not get too emotionally involved because we were destined to break up at some point.





So it's been more than a month, but it's impossible not to get involved!
I was cracking up!
When I wake up in the morning, he's asleep on and in my futon with Dora and Jack, and because of that, when I wake up, I'm surrounded by white feathers.
Even when I'm working in the field, they follow me around like a chick.
Throw some of the demons you find and they'll snack on them.
Call their names and they'll answer.
You don't have to have feelings for them.
It's about to grow up to my chest size, and I'm ready to ride it.
Just as I was thinking that, I saw Rock chasing after Jack like a ball. They're so close.

Just as I was getting used to living as a demon, the change came suddenly.

--Boom-boom-boom.

A knock on the door.
That's strange. Lily doesn't bother knocking on the door, she just comes in and I just gave Mina some foodstuffs.
Ys, aka the Snow Witch, sometimes comes in to see Dori, the dryad growing in the yard, but she never knocks on the door to get inside.
That makes it a rare guest?
No way, no way, it's finally here!　A raggedy adventurer?
d*mn, they finally sniffed out that there are rock bird chicks!
It's true that I've been growing up too much lately, and I'm taller than I am now, so it was only a matter of time before they found out. It was only a matter of time before we were discovered.
I thought so, and I motioned to Phytis next to me with my eyes, asking her to fight back at any moment.
I ask her to be ready to fight back at any moment, and she nods her head and quietly walks behind me.
I open the door fearfully, but a completely unexpected person is at the door.

"Nice to meet you,

The white . It was a pure white person.
An angel. You might be forgiven for thinking he was a beautiful figure, all white, with white clothing, hair and skin.
It was probably a man, but even I, a man, stood there looking at her.

It's a pleasure to meet you. I've seen you before, but I've never had the chance to visit you like this.

The person looked at me as if I were an old friend and spoke to me kindly.
I watched in amazement as the person entered the room, drinking in his or her natural attitude.

When the person sees Locke asleep at the end of the room, he smiles kindly and turns to me and says something unexpected.

I've come for you. Please come with me to the goddess of this world. Himuro-Kyouji, visitor from another world.

It was my very own secret that no one else in this world could know but me.
