They were then taken to a building in the park.
　Ignoring the sign that said "No entry except by authorized personnel," the keeper walked deeper and deeper into the building. I followed his back to ...... and eventually arrived at a large room.

"We have a wizard guest!
"Oh, that's great!

　The keeper shouted, and there were cheers from everywhere.
　It seemed to be a laboratory of sorts. It seemed to be a laboratory of sorts, lined with tools for preparing medicines and hay, and full of keepers dressed like the woman who had brought Allen and his friends here.
　In the midst of all this, an elderly man in a white lab coat approaches Allen cautiously.

But you're still young, by the looks of you. Are you sure you want to go to ......?

　Then he raises his eyebrows and stares at Allen's face.

"Are you by any chance a son of the ...... Crawford family?
...... Well, yes, I am. Have I met you before?
"I've seen you once at an open lecture at Athena Academy of Magic. I see. It's reassuring to know that the Crawfords are here!

　The man smiled his bearish face and asked for a handshake.

I'm the director of this magical zoo. I'm the director of this zoo, and I'm asking for your help.
I don't mind, but ...... what the hell is going on?
"You'll have to take a look at .......

　The director, with a hard face, invited Allen and the others to go deeper into the laboratory.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

It's ......!

　And Allen was speechless.
　Inside the cage was a large wolf. Its silvery-white fur was glossy, and its crimson eyes gave the impression of strength of will.
　It is a very rare species of demon, ...... Fenrir.
　The adult Fenrir is as big as a house, but this one is no bigger than a human. In addition, its fur was covered in reddish-black dirt, and its low growl had no power.
　Charlotte gasped and asked in a shaky voice, "Are you hurt?

"Are you hurt, ......?
Yes,......, I lost my parents and was attacked by poachers.

　The director shook his head with a somber expression.
　The fenrir is an endangered species, and unless there is a serious problem, it cannot be killed. However, their pelts and bones can be used to make high-quality magical tools, so there is no end to the poaching.
　Many zoos are working to protect such rare monsters, try to breed them, and return them to the wild.

This is the first time we've protected a Fenrir, and none of the staff can communicate with each other, and thanks to ...... we can't even treat the injuries.
That's definitely a problem .......

　Allen raised his eyebrows and slowly approached the cage.
　He tried to use the demon language as he had spoken to the vorpal bunnies earlier.

"Hey, listen to me. We're not the enemy--
"Aah!

　Fenrir didn't listen to him. Fenrir's eyes were filled with hostility, and he was barking at Allen.
　Basically, high-ranking demons rarely listen to the words of humans.
　From their point of view, humans are like slime. If you want to talk to them properly, you have to bring a high level demon wizard or take your time to build a trusting relationship with them.
　As it is, it will be difficult to get close enough to use recovery magic. In addition, if you irritate her too much, there is a possibility that she will open a wound.

"d*mn, ......, that's still impossible.

　Allen had no choice but to slowly back away, chuckling at his helplessness.
　The director sighs as he sees this.

He won't even eat his food. Even if we wait for him to get used to us, I'm not sure if he's strong enough. ......
"Hmm, is there a demon hunter?
As you can see, our staff is not up to par when it comes to Fenrir. ...... We tried contacting other parks, but--

　While the director and Allen were discussing this and that.
　Charlotte crossed her fingers in front of her chest and stared at the cage from afar.

You can find a lot more information on this at .......

　Seeing her like that made me want to help her even more. It's just a coincidence. Allen turned to the director and opened his mouth: .......

"Well, I'll do what I can to help...
Oh my God!

　Then the sound of footsteps rang out.
　An out-of-breath zookeeper jumped in and shouted.

"A Fenrir, who I think is the mother, is heading towards ...... this park!
"What the ......?
