Chapter 76

The victim was a robber.

Cheryl confirmed it, so it looks like there’s no doubt it was a claw of a beast.

I was relieved as a child.

He died because he was a bad person.

It was also a robber who was shaking the city.

It’s scary that the monsters are still wandering around, but this removes one of the horrors of the city.

When I told Cheryl about it, it was Boop that came back.

“It hurts! What are you doing, Cheryl?”

“fortunate or unfortunate, I’m your guardian. If your child has the wrong idea, I have to correct it. Do you know?”

“What’s wrong with me?”

I look at the jewelry store that became the site.

Guards gathered at the store, and rubberneckers gathered around it.

The broken glass case and the door that the robber broke remain vivid.

Cheryl raised her index finger to block my line of sight to the scene.

“One. You’re making a big mistake. He’s not the robber who was making noise in the city.”

“What do you mean?”

“The robber who was making noise in the city is that big wolf you know. He’s a copycat.”

“Why is that big wolf robbing jewels?”

Suddenly Cheryl grabbed my chest.

Cheryl, who is in a bad mood from beginning to end, glares at me.

I was prepared to be beaten for a moment, but in the end, the fist didn’t fly.

Instead the amulet was taken.

“This is his purpose?”

“… Jewel? Oh! Magic stone?”

There are several jewelry stores in the city that also have decorations, but most of them seem to be not having the magic stone.

Although magic stones are natural objects,magic Runes” or “Maneuver Skill It is an ore with either effect.

It has the power to increase the effect of magic Runes or Maneuver Skil.

The fact that there are two basic powers means that the magic stone itself has magical power, and some stones have the power of about 10 humans-it was written in the book.

“I see. That monster is hungry. So, the magical power of magic stones …”

That? But it’s strange.

Then why did monsters never attack humans?

Humans also have magical power. In a pinch, it should be more efficient than ingesting magic stones.

Is that a monster in the first place? I still don’t know what the name of that monster is.

And no matter what, that monster was very beautiful.

“Cheryl, is that big wolf really a monster?”

“…………. I can’t say anything right now. I can only say that something is happening.”

Cheryl muddyed her words.

This is just my intuition, but Cheryl is aware of something. Or I’m aware of it.

Something is, of course, that big wolf.

I’m sure there are some things she doesn’t want to tell me yet.

“Zelet, I have one more thing to say to you.”

“Huh—-?”

One grandmother jumps into the scene next to us arguing.

Then she cried out loud and shouted the name of the man who seemed to be a robber.

“Even if it’s a criminal, there are people who will be sad if they die. When a person dies, There is nothing. Just remember that. “

“……No”

Cheryl’s words were difficult for children to understand.

But somehow I understand.

That’s because I also had experience.

No matter how much I hate it, I feel sad when it disappears.

I had such an experience.

“Now—-“

Cheryl exhales.

She shook her long hair and looked back.

The owner of the monster Raquel was the one who turned her eyes hatefully.

“Now, you’re a criminal, because even a child knows that the owner is responsible for the dog, but more than that.”

Cheryl grabbed Raquel’s chest.

The sharpness of her eyes is incomparable to my time. It was like a ferocious wolf.

“Finally, he knew how delicious people were. He knew that I could get magical power from people. I don’t know what would happen if his heart was removed.”

“Cheryl, stop any more”

Gangel, who was accompanying him, intervened, but Cheryl did not let go of Raquel after all.

Raquel just trembled like a snow rabbit and didn’t say anything.

“I only want to know one thing. Isn’t that just a monster? No, it’s not a monster! Isn’t it?”

“Hey! Come on, Cheryl !!”

Raquel closed his mouth even when he was squeezed. I’m not surprised by Cheryl’s swordsman. It seemed to me that he had a clear will and wasn’t trying to say what the monster was.

“It’s a good courage to be so stuffed up with me, so I’ll teach you a spell that makes your mouth loose.”

“Ju, spell ??”

“Don’t you think it’s strange? You kept a Demon. Why does it seek magical power? Why did it hit a person? “

“――――!”

Raquel’s expression has changed.

”Ah” his facial expression hardens. Cheryl would have been waiting for Raquel’s reaction.

“I understand now. Apparently, my intuition was right. In the worst direction.”

Cheryl suddenly releases her hand from Raquel.

Raquel didn’t fix his messy collar and drooped like a scolded child.

It was Gangel who took a big breath when he saw it. He glares at Charil.

The guardian stretched his back and looked down at Mr. Raquel.

I’m the only one who doesn’t understand. In the first place, the nutrition of monsters is magical power. Even children know that the magical power of monsters is the same as the rice we usually eat.

What was wrong with such a natural thing, and what did Cheryl convince?

Cheryl scrapes her hair.

“I thought it was a monster I had never seen before. That’s right. It’s not a monster.”

“Isn’t it a monster? Is it such a big wolf?”

Well then …

“That’s not a monster. It’s a beast. It’s an iced wolf.”

While the grandmother was crying at the scene, her voice couldn’t be helped.
