Fenrir, the giant wolf called Letio by Tamer’s assassin, Turk.

Unlike his sleek, smart appearance with his pale fur, he has a disastrous magical power, and blue flames leak from his mouth every time he breathes.

As I recall, it is one of the strongest and most ferocious of all magical beasts.

“I was surprised that you were able to tame several Big Bears at the same time, but I didn’t expect it to even be Fenrir… you are a bastard, but your ability as a tamer seems to be genuine. Do you also have the grace skill?”

“Well~, it’s the ‘False Love Breeding’ that I got from the boss! It’s a skill that allows you to freely manipulate any magical beast if you get it! I have to say, this Letio has the strongest attack power of the magical beasts I’ve raised. He’s my proud partner! he’s so fluffy every day and even takes a bath with me!”

“…… Oh, maybe I’m a little jealous.”

Behind me, the fur-loving Miriel is muttering.

Oh dear. I let out a sigh and look at the Turk.

“f you’re so fond of your pets, maybe you shouldn’t have them in front of me. I’m not into pet abuse either. Turk,right I hope you’re the only one who dies.”

“Shut up, Grim Reaper! say that kind of talk after defeating Letio! Slash and burn him as well as the villagers and the knights, Letio!”

“Gauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!”

Letio opened its large mouth to me and breathed out blue flames.

He also charged at me, trying to slash me with his sharp claws on his paws.

But I was already gone.

A moment later

“Kyaiinn!”

As soon as the attack struck out, Letio’s huge head flew through the air.

Behind it, a figure with its entire body glowing red and holding two daggers in its left and right arms, held backhandedly…

“Activate 《Biological Reinforcement》…… Even though you were raised with the skills of a scumbag, I should show no mercy to those who have slaughtered so many innocent people!”

I was in serious mode.

The body part that had had its head chopped off fell to the side with a loud thud.

“L-Letio! It’s a lieeee! That’s impossible!”

Turk is astonished and panicked when his prized partner dies.

Ignoring the slaughtered Fenrir, I approach the building where he is standing.

“The only one left is you, Turk. Or do you have another magical beast in your possession?”

“A-Ah…… Aaaah”

“You’re scared, you’re at your wits’ end. Then you’re going to have to fight.”

“D-Don’t come …… this way!”

“Can you do anything without beasts? Are you watching from a high place while your pet fights? Aren’t you in good standing? ”

“……, I-I’m sorry!”

“Oh?”

“I’m sorry! I was just getting carried away! I thought I was the strongest tamer who was a little bit carefree and unrestrained! I’m so sorry!”

“The most powerful ones are not you, but the demonic beasts that were unfortunately tamed by you. If you had only gone after me, there would have been room for compassion, but you have killed too many innocent people. ……”

“I’m sorry! I’m so sorry! I reflected! I’m quitting being an assassin! I will be reborn and live at the bottom! That’s why–Gugeeeee! ! !”

“—-It’s too late for everything.”

I moved at high speed behind the Turk.

I twisted his neck with my standard strong naked choke, destroying his cervical vertebrae and killing him instantly.

Without another word from Turk, he collapsed to his knees and slid off the roof.

“Now the quest is complete. I don’t feel good about it because it looks like a seed I planted, though ……”

I thought about that as I released my “bio-enhancement” and returned to my normal state.

I don’t know what the organization itself thinks, but some of the assassins aiming for my head are people like Turk who will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.

From now on, I will need to pay attention not only to myself but also to my surroundings.

I will also have to be careful not to cause anyone else to get hurt because of me. ……

“That was brilliant, Seti dono!”

“You are very strong, Seti san!”

“You did it, Seti!”

“Really, I’m falling in love!”

I get off the roof and four beautiful girls run to me.

They admire me not as a fake hero, but as Seti.

I really don’t want to show them that I fight as an assassin, but they accept me without fear.

In fact, that’s what makes me most grateful and saved. ……

After the quest was over, I went to the Adventurers’ Guild to report to them, accompanied by Karina and the others.

The guild master asked me, “Did you really accomplish the quest with just the four of you?” and after receiving confirmation, I received my reward.

The amount was “8 million G,” and the high price indicated that it was a very difficult quest.

Incidentally, the report was filed in the form of an “attack by a magical beast,” without mentioning the tamer assassin, Turk, or his organization.

After that, Turk’s body was disguised as a villager who had been attacked by a magical beast and buried in the ground.

If this incident were to become public, the people who knew about it would be involved and targeted.

This is what it means to make enemies with an assassination organization that controls the underworld throughout the continent.

“Please, Seti dono, take this.”

Karina handed me the full amount of “8 million G.”

“A-Are you sure about this?”

“Of course I’m sure. I want you to use it for the kitchen wagon business.”

“Please accept it, Seti san.”

Fiala also folded her hands in prayer and asked me to accept it.

Miriel and Manisa also nodded their heads with kind eyes.

“.. okay, thank you. I’ll use it to pay for the renovations so everyone can be comfortable.”

Then it was time to refurbish the kitchen wagon carriages with the reward money.

I immediately asked a store where a Dwarf tribe was operating as carpenters and left the wagon with them.

The interior of the wagon was to be made wider than before, so that everyone could ride without inconvenience and carry more luggage, and the cooking area was to be expanded.

The dwarves told me that it would be a lot of work and that it would take a week to complete.

During this time, we were forced to stay in the Kingdom of Izla.

We have enough money to stay there, so we get a place to stay and slowly go to the market to buy cooking utensils and other things.

We bought a new spacious tent and another donkey.

Time passed, and a week would pass tomorrow.

“Seti onii chan. The hot springs in Atsumi Village will be open from today.”

Hina told us.

“Hee~, so it’s restored already? Then, shall we go for a last dip?”

“Yes!”

Oh yeah, we have to invite everyone.

After calling out to Karina and the others, we all headed back to Atsumi Village.

Unlike just six days before, the village was beautifully maintained.

It is a famous resort in the Kingdom of Izla, and it seems that the entire country has been involved in its construction.

However, the rubble and damaged buildings have only been cleaned up.

However, the buildings are still under construction, and the emotional scars of the villagers have not healed.

Still, I was impressed by the people who were looking forward to the future and acting soundly.

“Welcome. You must be Karina, the woman who saved our village. You have the place to yourself, so please come in.”

As soon as they arrived at the hot spring, we were treated by the Lord.

“What do you mean?”

“No, Seti-dono. It seems that our saga has spread throughout the Kingdom of Izla. Especially since I am registered with the Adventurers’ Guild, my name and face have been discovered. …… I apologize.”

“There’s nothing to apologize for. When you say private, does that mean it’s just us?”

“Yes, we at Atsumi Village would like to thank you in some small way …… for your hospitality.”

I see. Then, I can thank you for your kindness.

I said goodbye to the ladies and headed to the men’s changing room.

I quickly undressed and headed to the bathhouse with my bath set under my arm.

“The rock bath. I love the elegance of a rock bath.”

I muttered to myself as soon as I opened the sliding door.

The bathtub was piled with large rocks, forming an oval shape. In addition, the largest rock was placed in the center of the bathtub.

I quickly rinsed off my body and soaked in the bathtub.

“Phew~”

I let out a carefree voice.

I felt the warmth of the water seeping into my body, and I felt the tiredness that had built up inside me begin to overflow out of me.

I was so glad I had come.

That’s when it happened.

Garagara!

“Wow~, it’s so spacious! Hurry up, onee chan!”

That was Hina’s voice.

She was so happy to be here.

What is that?

Don’t tell me the hot springs here…?

Mixed bathing?!!
