Oh, Arel...?
Arrell?

　I look up at me standing above Befi's head and my mom and dad are rolling their eyes.
　Laina is with them.
　I'm sure you're not the only one who has returned from training.

This demon is.....
I made him a follower.
''Juu........you made him a follower!''

　Hmm?　Is it really such a surprise?

That's because he's a demon trainer. You have a demon or two as your followers.

　Or maybe he thought it was impossible for me to be a demon trainer.

''Well, that's not what I'm talking about!　I'm telling you that one is too big!

　Laina exclaimed.

'If your mother's eyes are correct, she looks like a mythical behemoth...?
True, that behemoth.
"N

　Befi nodded and a strong wind blew in her nose as she nodded.

'But Befi's the only one this big, you know?　Since we're here, let me introduce you.

　In his humanized state, people might not think he's a demon, so I'll have him return to his original form.

　Libby becomes huge.

''Hey, Mom?　Is it a mistake?　He looks like a mythical Leviathan...
No, Dad. I don't think you're mistaken. I can see it, but it could also be just a big snake.
'I don't think there are any snakes this big besides Leviathan...'

　I said, "That's the real Leviathan.

"The real Leviathan. Caught him at sea.
"What a small town this is!

　Libby bobbed her head and a light tornado broke out.

　Fenny then returned to her original form.

''....................or mother!　Am I looking at the wrong person?　Now it looks like a mythical phoenix!
No, Dad!　I don't think you're mistaken!　I can see it too!　...but it could just be a big bird...!
'I don't think there are any other birds this big besides the Phoenix!　And first, it's burning!

　The three of them repeated the same line as before in a yakuza-like manner.

'It's definitely Phoenix,'
....
"'Hot....'

　As Fenny flapped her wings, a fierce hot wind burned the ground.

''........Arel.......how far are you going to go.......''
It's already so far beyond your mother's imagination that I don't know.

　For some reason, he looks tired.
　Hmm?　Maybe I should introduce you to Pullle and Matty later.






　So that's how I got back to my parents' house.
　You're still settling in as usual.

''Well my dad is not settled at all.

　As he says this, Dad looks over at them as they set up all over the living room.

　Befi is sleeping like a cat on the couch with her long body folded up, and Libby is eating a delicious snack that Mom made.
　Fenny looks like she's drinking her tea gracefully, but if you look closely, she's nervous and her face is even more strained than her dad's.

'But I think it's good that your mother is lively. It's true that it would be troublesome if she were to rampage in her original form, but she just looks a bit odd when she's doing this.

　Mom, on the other hand, seemed to accept it easily.

It's a strange thing to be humanized.... It's a kind of magic, I suppose. I think it's a type of magic, but hmmm, it seems to be outside the basic six types, so my father doesn't understand it either.

　Apparently, even my dad didn't understand it.
　I asked Befi and the others, but they seemed to be using it sensibly and didn't even understand the magic formula.

　I thought if I could analyze it, I could try to reverse it and turn into a giant or transform into a demon.

'Speaking of which, where did Mira go?'
I'm sure Mila would be in her room.

　Since I'm making so much noise, you know I'm back.
　But he didn't even show up.

　He must have hated me after all.
　And then, there it is.

''Brother, you're back.''
...Mira?

　I turned around and was amazed.
　It's only been six months, but she's become even more mature again.

　He's long past his sister in height, but he's going to overtake his dad sooner or later.
　He was wearing stylish clothes, as if he was planning to go out somewhere, and if you looked closely, he was also wearing makeup.

　For some reason, Laina raised her voice.

'Oi, why are you wearing makeup!
'Of course you're a girl. I don't want you to be lumped in with some male domineering sow who can't even put on proper make-up at the age of twenty.
You're a f*cking sow!　Wow, I've worn makeup before!　.........yea, once or twice.......
Is that what they call makeup for pigs?
'There is no such saying!　You wouldn't wear makeup when you're at home in the first place!
Mira does.
You were normally naked in there.

　They're fighting again.........

'More importantly, Mira, weren't you angry?
What are you talking about?
Hmm?　I thought for sure Mira hated me.
'It can't be. It's impossible for Mira to dislike her brother.
Okay. All right then.

　As I'm patting my chest in relief, Mila approaches me.
　I can smell the good perfume in the air.

'Brother, you must be sweating from your long journey. You should take a bath.
Hm?　Yeah. I'd certainly like to get in.
That's why I'm boiling water for you.
You're so smart.

　That's why he didn't show his face very often.
　She's a cute little sister who loves her brother, after all.

''Can Mira come in with me too?''
Yeah, sure.
Wait, wait, wait, wait!

　Laina interrupted loudly.

'You're almost ten!　Next month we're going to have a blessing ceremony!　For goodness sake, why don't you and your brother and sister stop taking baths together!
I hope the extra pig doesn't interfere.
So stop treating me like a pig!

　Mu, come to think of it, it was already that time of year.

'Mira will receive the blessing?'
'That's right. Mira is going to be a grown-up now.
A grown man would be much more likely to take a bath by himself!
Well that's not the same thing as this.
I'm with you!
It's different.

　We started arguing again.

　But that little Mira is already ten years old.....
　Time flies.

　I wonder what kind of job she'll be given?
