“Alright…”
After defeating Henwen, we decided to build a grave for Caspary’s mother as a memorial.
However, it seemed her body had already been eaten by Henwen, and burying this sow Demon Beast in the ground didn’t feel right, so it ended up being just a formality.
So, as a small act of revenge, we used the ‘Butchering Blade Henwen’ that appeared when we defeated her as a tombstone.
Even if I took it back, it would be a waste for me since I can’t use it.
“Mother… I did it,”
Caspary reported in front of the grave with a somewhat lonely expression.
There wasn’t even a trace of her initial character setting of adding ‘Nya’ to the end of her sentences. What was that all about?
“Well… sorry to interrupt your sentimentality, but you remember our promise, right?”
That’s right… we didn’t come all the way here from the Royal Capital just for fun.
Moreover, defeating a raid boss like Henwen was completely unexpected.
It was all to obtain the ‘Jet-Black Shield Caspary’.
And yet.
“P-Promise? What was that Nya?”
“Are you playing dumb now? And isn’t that character act unnecessary at this point?”
I calmly retorted to Caspary’s feigned ignorance.
We went through so much trouble. There’s no way I’m letting it go now.
“Besides, you can’t maintain that form without my Mana, right? If another Demon Beast like Henwen appears, you won’t be able to fight it.”
“Muuu…”
Caspary pouted her mouth skillfully and groaned.
Actually, after defeating Henwen, she got cocky for a weak little kitten Demon Beast.
‘I am the Calamity Beast Caspary! No one can defeat me anymore! Nya ha ha ha ha ha ha!’
Well, because she absorbed my SP, she was able to become the Caspary that appears in ‘EnHaza’, but sadly, she couldn’t maintain it unless she kept absorbing it continuously.
In other words, if she wasn’t in contact with me, the source of the supply, even for a moment, the SP supply would be cut off, and she would return to her original kitten or miniature Shield size.
Her disappointment at that time made her look like a slightly pitiful clown.
“So, what are you going to do? Of course, if you really don’t want to leave this island, I won’t force you any further. Even if you break our promise and end up being trampled by other Demon Beasts.”
“Muuu…”
Heh heh… I stirred up her anxiety as much as possible.
What do you think? Do you think you can manage without us? You don’t, right? Also, Monica, please don’t look at me like that.
By the way, honestly, I’d be in big trouble if she didn’t come with us.
Otherwise, the possibility of me facing a bad end, just like in ‘EnHaza’, would increase.
However, by fighting with her, I’ve gained a little understanding of how to handle her.
Probably, with one more push, she’ll definitely come along.
That is.
“Haa… I thought I’d finally found the best partner.”
“Eh!?”
The moment I sighed and said that, Caspary’s golden eyes widened.
Ku ha ha! If you’ve lost your mother and become all alone, and then someone asks you to join them as if they’re really looking forward to it, it wouldn’t feel bad, right?
But why are Alexandra and Monica also widening their eyes?
“D-Do you really think of me that way…?”
“Yeah, I do?”
“B-But! I’m useless without Mana…”
“What are you even saying? I have plenty of Mana.”
That’s right… I have the highest maximum SP value among the characters in ‘EnHaza’.
Even though I can’t use any Skill Attacks because of the different attribute, I wondered what the developers were thinking, but it was undoubtedly a joke. Thanks to that, it’s been a great help. Long live jokes.
“Besides, I can’t handle any weapons other than you properly. So, doesn’t that mean we can become stronger by being together?”
“!”
Alright, she took the bait.
Now, she’ll surely say herself that she’ll come with us.
“I-It can’t be helped… Harold can’t do anything without me. I’ll help you out just a little, that… partner.”
Aha ha, she’s so embarrassed.
I mean, she’s easy to handle and cute. If other ‘EnHaza’ players knew this was Caspary, wouldn’t they be surprised?
“Alright! Then let’s work together from now on! Partner!”
“Yeah! Let’s do our best! Partner!”
Caspary and I each thrust out our fists and foreleg, and tapped them together.
Everything was fine up to this point…
“…Harold-sama’s fiancée is me, though.”
Alexandra sulked terribly, and it took a long time to get her to cheer up until we arrived at the Royal Capital.
But her being jealous of a cat Demon Beast was so cute that I wanted to have many refills of freshly cooked white rice. That’s my little secret.
Although rice doesn’t exist in this world.
