'Unnyyyyyy!
Don't move!

　Kanade and Tania's rapid progress continues.
　One after another, the guards appear, but no one can stop them.
　Tearing and tearing, tearing and tossing....
　Just like that, they were destroyed in the blink of an eye.

''Soooo amazing........''

　Tina, who was watching the scene behind me, gave me such a complicated look of dismay and admiration.
　This is the first time I've seen their strength properly.
　They must be surprised in many ways by their substandard strength.

I'm sure you'll be able to see that this is the power of the strongest species. This is the power of the strongest species, right? We couldn't do such a thing at my place.
Well, it's partly because of the two of us, but also because I'm more enthusiastic than usual now.
Really?　Why?
It's for Tina.
Home?
They're both angry at what Tina told them. They can't forgive the guy who hurt Tina so badly.......they're as angry as they are. I guess that's why they're able to do so much.

　Not for yourself, but for someone else.
　I can be angry for my people.
　Kanade and Tania can do that.
　I'm as proud of them as I am of myself.

'I don't know... for my family...'

　Tina gave me a happy, yet confused look.

　She'd been alone for thirty years.
　Maybe I don't quite know what to do with Kanade or Tania's mind.

　There's nothing I can do about this.
　It's his own problem.
　But I'm sure Tina can take everyone's feelings into account.
　So let's do what we can do for now.

Rayne, this room is very suspicious!

　Kanade, who is leading the way, stops in front of a room.
　It's a locked, sturdy-looking door.

　Kanade's cat ears twitch.

'Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Someone's hiding in there.''
Isn't that that Jipek guy or something?　I couldn't find another room that looks like it and I think this is the one with the best odds.
'Tania's right. This place must be a refuge in case of emergency.

　The door is made of steel and has multiple locks on it.
　If I tried to break through head-on, I'd break my bones.

"...Rain.
Yeah?
My... transition, I'm going in...?
'What?　Is Nina's transition able to slip through walls and doors?
I'll be fine for a little while.
Nina is an amazing little girl, you know, a good little girl.
Huh.

　The cat was soothing the fox.

'Well, now that you mention it, I'll have to ask for Nina's help some other time.
Am I... useless...?
'No, that's not true. It's just that I don't need Nina's help to do this...

　Breaking through the door by force would do more mental damage to the jipec inside.
　That's what I was thinking about.
　I decided not to explain that much, since the area around Kanade and Tania were going to say 'belly-button tamer' or something like that.

'I'll kick it through?　Or would you rather use Rain's dagger?
No, I've heard that Kamui's powers don't come in rapid succession.

　Instead of being able to draw a powerful power, it cannot be used randomly.
　It seems that if you abuse it, it will not be able to withstand the power drawn from the strongest species and the blade will break.
　I had heard such an explanation from Ganz beforehand.

''So it's my turn after all?
No. I'll take care of this.
Meow?

　I wanted to try a certain thing.

　The moment I signed a contract with Nina, a certain knowledge flowed into my body.
　It was about the power I had gained by signing a contract with Nina.
　It was as if I had been using that power for many years, and I had learned a certain ability.
　I was going to try it out sooner or later...
　Now would be a good time to do it.

Create.

　I imagine a certain object in my mind and chant magic.
　Then, instead of consuming magic power, a certain substance was created.

　Matter creation.

　This was my newly acquired power the power of my bond with Nina.

'Buh, material creation...?　That's a very rare skill among the God Clan........
Rain is another step closer to becoming an outsider.
'Hey there. Don't be silly.

　I'm just a regular beast tamer everywhere.

　

　Regardless of that.
　I set the generated gunpowder on the door.
　Tell everyone to move away from the door...

"Fireball.

　With a magic of minimal power, it ignites.

　Boom!　With a bursting sound, the iron door blew open.
　Sheesh.
　I was thinking that I should just use gunpowder to blow it up, and forgot to adjust the amount of explosives.
　There was quite an explosion.
　Is Zipek inside safe?
　........well, if it's not good enough, it's fine.

'Hi, hi, what's going on?　What the hell happened?!

　I heard a voice from inside the room.
　Maybe it was Zipek.
　He seemed to be lucky, and he was safe.

　I signaled everyone with my eyes and rushed inside.

　A steel door blew open, crushing the desk in the room.
　Right next to it, one of the older men is sitting on the floor, hunched over.
　When he finds us, he makes a look of relief.

'Wha, what are you guys...?　Well, whoever you are. Me, protect me!　There is a bandit in the house.
I mean, we're the bandits.
Wha... what the hell?　d*mn ... oh, hey, hey, somebody!　Somebody come, there's a bandit here!
Nobody's coming. They're all sleeping over there.
And by the way, you can't escape, can you?　We've got the back in place as well.
Hmmm.
It's not possible, it's impossible!　That's impossible, I'll never admit it!

　I tell him that it's over, but Zipek can't seem to face reality.
　His face turns red and he screams.

'You people ... who do you think you are, this me?　You are the best merchant in this city, Master Tran!　Don't think you can get away with this kind of imitation for free.
That's our line.
Huh.

　Jipek's body shook as he threw the words at her in anger.
　All the guards are down and there's no way out.
　He finally realized that we have the right to live and die, and he finally realized that we have the right to live and die.

'We are the adventurers of this city. Tran Zipek. We're taking you in for illegal trafficking in protected animals.
Wha... wait, wait. You said you were an adventurer?　Then let's pay double. No, no I'll triple it!　So don't do anything nonsensical. It is the loss of this town and of the entire merchant community to capture me.
After threats, then bribes..........................typical bad guys.
'Nyah I'm getting annoyed. Can I hit you?
No.
Yeah.
That's ... Tina's right.

　I took a step to the side and...
　He paved the way for Tina.

　Tina flew fluffily through the air and moved in front of Zipek.

''What is this........this thing......could it be a ghost.......?
Good to see you again, Master. You remember me?
What?　I don't know any ghosts........no......wait.
I'm glad to see that you remember the maid you killed 30 years ago.
What?　I don't know how it's possible that you're dead!　I killed him.　There's no way I'm here, there's no way I'm here!
No, I mean you're a ghost.
"Hee...!　Ku, don't come, don't come, don't come, don't come!

　Confronted with the sins of the past, Zipek goes into a semi-crazed frenzy.
　He backs away from the horror in front of him, but his back soon hits the wall.

　There is no escape here.
　We won't allow him to escape.
　It's time for me to be punished.

'You have a lot to say to your master, don't you?　Will you listen to me?
"Hee...!　How can this be.......I am not to blame, I have done nothing wrong!
It takes a lot of guts to say such a thing at this point in time. But do you think that will convince us?
"Oh, I'm sorry!　I'm the one who screwed up.　You're right, I apologize. So please forgive me!　Help!
Didn't we make a plea like that at home?　I begged you to help me but you just laughed at me and wouldn't stop. You killed my family, like it was nothing. Well what do you think?　Would you be able to forgive me?
Ahhhhhh...!
Prepare yourself. You've got a lot to live up to, haven't you?　You're satisfied with that, aren't you?
'I don't want to!
d*mn it...!

　Tina waved her hand up in the air and....
　As if in response to the movement, the vases on the shelves floated softly.
　As if it had caused a poltergeist phenomenon, Tina must be manipulating it with her magical power.
　The jar flew through the air like a living creature as it was and crashed into the side of Zipek's head.

''Gah!''

　
　He seemed to have cut his head on impact and was bleeding.
　However, he seemed to be reluctantly alive, and his limbs were twitching and twitching.

''Whew!''

　Tina made a gesture of wiping her forehead and let out a satisfied breath.
　It's like I've finished a job.

　In other words.........
　I guess that means Tina's vengeance is now over.

Are you sure?
Hmm?　What?
'I could put you through the same thing, you know?　We're not ... we're not going to stop.
Well that's what I was going to do at first.

　He pretended to be lost and then....
　Tina chuckled.
　It was a pleasant smile, with no dark emotions in sight.

When I was with you guys, I didn't really care. It's not that I don't care if I'm with you or not, but when I see you all working so hard for us, I feel a warmth in my heart and that's all right. Besides, I felt refreshed after the punch, so I'll just say this much.
Okay.
Are we nice?
You don't want to be the one to tell me that.
Haha, yeah.

　I laughed with Tina, who looked refreshed and clear.
