11-11. Cat Sea




 After a while, we found water deep inside.
 A fair amount of water was flowing noisily.

 I wonder if I can get out if I go into this water? Hmmm, I guess I'm drowning indeed.

 It's pretty clean water. I sip it with my hand. It is cold and delicious.

 I mean, there's nothing to put in it, like a water bottle, if you think about it.

 I didn't think about it.
 Making something out of what's around us is not so easy, is it?

 It's a good thing there's a water source, I guess.

 Oh, and that cat we picked up earlier.
 I was going to save it, but I don't know if I can.
 I've been groggy the whole time.

 If I've been attacked by that spider, I think I'll recover if I rest, but I don't.

 Let's just drink some water for now.

 I scoop up a handful of water and bring it to the cat's mouth.
 The cat is weak, but it starts licking the water, pero, pero.

 It's thirsty, but it keeps drinking quite a bit and drinks it all.
 When I brought him water again, he drank it down too.

 If we gave him water and food, he might come back.
 But I don't have any food.
 The mushrooms, those, you have to be poison resistant to eat them.

 Let's give it a rest and see how it goes.
 The ground is hard, and I put the cat in my lap to rest.

 I can feel the warmth of the cat in my lap.

 ........As a cat lover, I can't help but pet the cat as I do this.
 I gently stroke the head and body of the cat.

 And then it purred pleasantly, "Nya~".

 Huh? Is he looking better?
 Do my hands have the hand power to heal living things?
 ........well, it's probably because I made it drink water.

 I continue stroking it like that for a while.

 My knees suddenly feel heavy.
 Furthermore, the feeling of stroking changes.
 It's like touching a person's hair.

 I felt uncomfortable and looked down.

What?

 I sound like I'm in love with it.

 It wasn't a cat I was petting.

 It was a girl.

 I was petting a black-haired girl with cat ears when I realized I was petting her.
 The girl is making a pleasant sound, "Unya~" while being petted by me.
 Unlike the cat's voice from earlier, it's a voice that sounds completely like a human girl.

 
 As a cat lover, I often have this kind of delusion.

 The cat I rescued turned out to be a beautiful girl, and I was able to make out with her, or something stupid like that.

 I guess I'm hallucinating about it. I'm getting tired of it.

 Because it's impossible for a cat to become a human being all of a sudden....

 No, it can't be! This is a different world!

 I wouldn't be surprised if some of them went from cat to human!

 Come to think of it, I hadn't put an appraisal on it.
 No, it was just a normal cat by all accounts, so the idea of appraising it never occurred to me.

 Let's appraise it.

'Ketsey. Individual name: Raina, 15 years old, Lv.25/55.
 Ketsey the Cat Beast. 'When you're weak, you're just a cat'

 Ketsey.
 Is she a cat beastman?
 You mean she drank water, rested a bit, regained her strength, and returned to her human body?

 Is her name Lenya?

 I hug her on both shoulders and help her up.
 Her face is young but beautifully formed.
 Also, she seems to be wearing clothes.
 Normally she would be completely naked, but apparently not.

'Hey, you - hey!'


 He says that while squinting his eyes.
 Are you feeling a little sleepy? For now I'm going to rock it.



 I snapped my eyes open.
 They're big, beautiful, amber cat eyes.

'Huh? Yeah! I'm back to normal!

 A Ketsey girl named Lenya looks at her limbs and confirms that she's back to her original form.

'Yay I'm back! I owe my brother a debt of gratitude! Thank you, nyah!

 He grabbed both my hands and said.

'Oh, no, no, you're welcome, I mean, you're welcome, it's just what you deserve,'

 I'm a virgin. A girl holds my hand and I get really upset.
 She's 15 years old, 10 years younger than me, but she's got a beautiful face and a nice figure.
 I'm really nervous about her. I'm a bit miserable.

My name is Lenya! What's your brother's name?
Tetsuya.... Your name is Tetsuya and your last name is Takahashi.
It's called Tetsuya! That spider you just defeated was so fast! Tetsuya is a strong one!

 I don't feel bad about being praised, so I'm a little embarrassed.

''Unya~ I'd like to thank you, but I don't have anything to thank you for...''

 Shobone is depressed.

'No, no, I don't need to thank you,'

 I follow up.

'But nyah! Oh, yes! Follow me!

 Leisha walks off, wondering what she has in mind.

'Where are you going?'
At my house! I'm leaving the cave once!

 You have a home.

 Raina started walking out of the cave, and I followed her.
