　He slams his fist into the last one, and reaps his consciousness.

　I have now defeated everyone who has ever swung a weapon at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Still, I look around cautiously.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There might be someone else, who might try to take advantage of my slackness.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I guess I didn't need to worry about that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Looking around, I don't even feel anything moving.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Until a few minutes ago, I somehow felt the presence of people moving or looking at me from all over the place.

　Perhaps they are residents of the poor neighborhoods around here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But those people might have seen the situation of fighting with weapons and decided to leave and hide their breath.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems to be all right now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I went to Mitya, since I did not have to worry about being attacked any more.

　I hide her behind the wall of the building and check her condition as she is still leaning against the wall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She seems to be only sleeping.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She is breathing softly and moving her mouth in a squishy motion, so she might be dreaming of eating something.

"Hey, wake up, Mee. Are you okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... hmmm. What's that?"

"It's me, Alphonse. You okay, me?　Can you stand?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ah, it's Master Al. Yeah, I'm okay. ...... Hey, where am I?　Why is Master Al wearing red?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The favelas of the Orient. They took Mee, so we're here to help."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Ah, yes. Me, a stranger told me to introduce you to a friend of mine. So, you know, there you are."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, you can't. It's not safe to follow strangers. Hannah will be worried.

"Sorry ....... But I made a new friend, you know?　He had ears and a tail, just like Me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Oh, yeah. Where is your friend?

　I shook Mitya awake from his sleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently, she really was just sleeping and seems to be okay.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She seems to be fine when we talk to her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mitya seems to have been brought here by some persuasion after he was approached.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She seems a little too cautious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　One wonders if she has really lived in this favela before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, maybe they have forgotten what it was like back then and have gotten used to a safe life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Or maybe they thought that the land within the walls was safe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe I should remind myself to be more careful later.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But that's not the point.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently Mitya has made a friend.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And not just a normal friend.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He has ears and a tail.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Everyone has ears, but that's not what this is about, is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe they are talking about those who have the same beast blood as the [beastified] Mitya.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I remember that the people we defeated said...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I believe they were talking about Mitya as something that could be sold.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, it is not surprising that there are other beings besides Mitya that can be sold.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe there are some such people in the building where they were based.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With this in mind, I decided to ask Mitya to show me the way to meet their friends.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I pick up Mitya in the Valkyrie and head for the building.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We soon arrive there and look inside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Norn, go ahead and check inside. If there is an attack, take care of it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe there is still someone inside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It could be armed men, so I'll have Norn go in first to ensure their safety.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A few moments after the red-armored fresh-blooded Norn enters the building, he hears some voices.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that the men were still together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, there were several times when the voices were silenced immediately after the sound of shouting and attacking the Norns.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a while, Norn came back to the entrance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Good work. Is it safe to come in now?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Maybe. I took out the ones that moved."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you. Did you notice anything else unusual?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There was. There's a cage in the far room. There's some kids in there. They were the offspring of a beast just like them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Great. Well, let's go check them out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This time, leaving Valkyrie and Norn at the entrance, I and Mitya proceed into the building.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Norn had told us, we go to a room at the back of the building.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And this is also the room where Mitya's friend used to be.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The room is a little dank, dirty and small.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There are several cages made of metal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was a figure in one of the cages, which were smaller than expected and stacked one on top of the other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When he saw me enter the room, he shook his body and braced himself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They were placed one by one in each of the cages, and they were indeed children just like Mitya, with ears and tails with the characteristics of beasts.
