Chapter 7: CH 6

I woke up with a strange feeling around my neck. Oh no! I completely fell asleep.

I opened my eyes to check if she is okay, and the person in question is holding one hand around my neck.

Well, I did not think about the possibility of this happening.

I try hard to speak in a calm voice. The hand on my neck is not strong. If she seriously puts her power on it, my second life would have been over in my first day here, she could have killed me when I was asleep.

“First of all, is your injury okay now?”

I call out to the girl who is staring at me with her tiger-like face. Perhaps my words were unexpected, her facial expression revealed puzzlement for a moment but immediately returned to normal as she answered me.

“It still hurts quite a bit, but it looks like it will be cured.”

“Really?, I’m glad to hear that.”

I’m really relieved, I speak while smiling. I am honestly happy because as I’m trying to help, she is saved. Then, the girl looks at me blankly.

“Oh, uh…”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

After saying that, she turns her face away. Now is the chance to grab this hand and take it off, but it’s not probably good to do it as I may hurt this child. Realizing something, she quickly turns around and speaks with an angry voice.

“Y-You!… have you seen it?!”

There is a little strength in her hand. I answer while trying to be much calmer than at the beginning.

“It was necessary for the treatment. I swear, other than those parts needing treatment, I haven’t touched anything.”

“Is that true?”

“U-uh”

She kept staring at my eyes for a while then she sighed lightly and pulls her hand off my neck.

“I’ll trust you for now.”

“Thank you for doing that.”

“I didn’t smell the scent of a human who lied.”

“That is…. Y-you… you can recognize that?!”

“I’m different from dog-like beastman, I knew it when your heart pounds a lot. Surprised?”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

“Ah? yeah….”

If I really did touch here and there while doing the treatment, then if I lied… it would be eventually found out too at this moment. On my second day, I feel like I’m walking on a tightrope…

I looked into my bedroom and hand over my clothes.

“Wear this for the time being.”

“What about my clothes?”

“It was sticky due the blood and I needed to take it off to treat you so I cut it.”

“……is that so?”

“I-I’m sorry if it is important…”

“No, there’s no such thing. It’s just a rag.”

Though it’s already late, I still face the other way while she’s changing.

“By the way, are you the owner of this house?”

The girl in her clothes asked a question, so I turn to look at her and answer.

“That’s right.”

“What are you doing here?”

“Blacksmithing…”

“You’re a blacksmith?”

“U-uh… but I’m just a newcomer who arrived here yesterday.”

I not sure yet when to decide to live here, but I’ll tell her honestly. She probably knows this area. At the same time, I think it’s a bad idea to say some lie here.

“I wonder if this house was in this forest …”

(Sweat) She knows where this is.

“Hnnn? Was it here when I came yesterday?”

This is almost true. Except for the fact that this house suddenly springs out.

“Well, I haven’t come to this side of the “Black Forest” much, so maybe I overlooked it.”

Black Forest huh.

There’s a hit on the “installed” knowledge in me. I’m cheering in my heart, but if I let my heart beat too much, she will feel it. If I compare the knowledge with the terrain, I can see the approximate location here.

“Because this is the eastern part.”

“Ah–, I hang around the north and west, so I don’t come here too much.”

I’m glad, it matched.

“I tried to come here this time but I came across a big black bear… The rest is exactly what you saw. The reason why it didn’t stab me was probably because it knew you were coming up.”

“I see.”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

Is there such a dangerous thing? Maybe she is not a weak one. Even though she is a tiger beastman, to say that a woman wanders through this forest alone means that she knows how to protect herself. However, her injuries aren’t healed now, and I’m kind of uncomfortable pushing her out here. So I cut it out.

“Um, there is one thing I want to speak with you.”

“What is it?”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

“Will it take a while for your injuries to heal?”

“Ah, maybe. We’re a lot stronger than humans, but with an injury like this, I can’t hunt or explore for about two weeks.”

“Then, why not live here?”

“Haaa?”

“I don’t mean anything else about it… I’ve just come over here and I also want an assistant for blacksmithing. You have to heal your injuries, and even if you heal, you’ll have to rehabilitate for a while…”

“Well…..”

“And maybe if you stay here, you’re life will be more stable. At the very least you don’t have to worry about  being exposed to wind and rain.”

“I got it……”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com).

She contemplates. I didn’t say that it’s also because she’s tiger-like so I just want to watch her all the time –she’ll likely to get angry at it.

“I understand. I’ll live here until my injury is healed and I can move normally. I’ll think about what to do after that, is it okay?”

“Ou, no problem.”

“Thank you for doing that!”

“Ou!”

Thus, my desire to “keep a cat” is probably fulfilled in the unexpected way by “living with a tiger beast girl.”
