The beast tamer exiled from the hero’s party and the cat eared girl from the strongest race meet

Chapter 271 See you someday

(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)

After that, I spent about an hour chatting with Lady Sarya about trivial matters...

And then, after a firm farewell, I left the royal castle.

Later, we were supposed to meet everyone at the square...

"Huh? Sora and Luna. And where are Nina and Tina?"

The four of them were nowhere to be found.

"It seems they mentioned touring the capital and trying delicious foods."

"We can't just leave Rain alone, so we decided to take separate actions. Oh, we've made a promise to meet up properly."

According to Kanade, they agreed to reunite in this square again two hours later.

Even though we're getting a late start...

Well, a little delay should be fine.

We don't know when we'll come to the royal capital next, so let them enjoy themselves.

"Is sightseeing okay for Kanade and Tania?"

"Nyaa. I, um, want to be with Rain♪"

"Well, leaving Rain alone would be pitiful, right? And who knows what weird things might happen if he's left alone with that somersaulting cat? I'll stay as a guardian and be with him."

"Somersaulting cat?! I have no idea what that means, but I feel like I'm being insulted!?"

"Where I'm going is not a boring place, you know? Is that okay with you?"

"Where are you going?"

"The Adventurer's Guild."

――――――――――

Certainly! Here's the modified passage with "Axe" instead of "Ax," "Cell" instead of "Celle," and "Nunnally" instead of "Nanari":

I visited the Adventurer's Guild with Kanade and Tania.

"Hello, Mr. Shroud. Welcome," greeted Nunnally with a smile.

"What brings you here? I believe you're leaving the capital today, right? It's not for a request, I presume..."

"Just came to say hello. Thanks for everything," I replied.

"Oh, no need to thank me... When you return to Horizon, please take care of my sister."

"I've got it."

One objective accomplished.

Next...

I looked around the guild and spotted the individuals I was looking for in the conversation space.

"Axe, Cell," I called out to them.

For some reason, Cell was giving Axe a cold look and stepping on him, making it quite challenging to approach them.

"Oh, it's not Rain. And Kanade and Tania too."

"Hello."

"What are you doing...?"

"Discipline."

"D-discipline...?"

"Half of the request fee disappeared due to Axe's mistake, so I'm disciplining him like this."

Losing half of the request fee was painful, but seeing Axe on the ground with his head being stepped on in a bowing position, I couldn't help but feel sympathy.

"Uggh... W-well, Rain, it's good to see you're doing well."

"Uh, yeah. Is Axe really doing well?"

"Yeah, this isn't too bad."

The ladies recoiled in surprise.

"Also, doing this... the view is fantastic."

"What!?"

Cell blushed and hastily held down her skirt.

"Hehehe... I'll enjoy the passionate red someday in my night room, huh!?"

Cell kicked Axe vigorously.

However, this seemed to be a commonplace occurrence, and the surrounding adventurers continued their conversation as if nothing happened.

"Nyaa... He can't see our underwear, right?"

"My underwear isn't visible, so it's fine."

"Tania's a traitor."

...The conversation had completely derailed.

"Ah... can I talk to you for a moment?"

"Yes, of course."

We sat down. Axe got up unsteadily and sat down too. Then, we gathered around the table.

"What's going on?"

"I'm leaving the capital today. So, I wanted to thank both of you and say goodbye. Thank you again. You helped us a lot back then."

"Well, it wasn't a big deal. But if you insist, how about treating us to a nice meal and drinks next time?"

"Thanks are unnecessary. We just did what was expected of us," Cell said with a smile while punching Axe. The gap between her actions and words was too extreme, a bit scary.

"Nyaa... Cell can be quite tough on Axe, huh?"

"Perhaps it's a reverse expression of affection?"

"Stop it. Don't say such boring things."

Cell denied Tania's words with a serious expression. Axe was crying quietly.

"Well, anyway. We were helped, that's for sure. If you want to treat us, I don't mind."

"Is it okay?"

"I'm leaving the capital today, but... sure. Let's take our time and enjoy a meal next time we meet."

"Ah, I understand now. That's Rain for you."

"Absolutely... Even though he had an awkward expression until recently, now he quickly changes his attitude. He's in good spirits."

"It's... it's okay. There's a certain way a man should be."

"Well then. I'm a woman, so it's fine if I can't understand Axe. Is that what you're saying?"

"I apologize."

Axe immediately bowed deeply. No, was it more like prostrating?

Anyway, he was apologizing to Cell with all his might.

Well, that's typical of Axe.

...Though I'm not sure if such deep bowing is appropriate.

"By the way, what are you two going to do now? Are you staying in the capital?"

"No. We'll be leaving the capital a little later."

"There are many adventurers in the capital, and the competition is tough."

"I thought Axe would insist on pushing through no matter who the opponent is. Isn't that right?"

"That's correct, Axe said that at first, but then..."

"I got scolded by Cell. She asked, 'What's the point of doing something so inefficient? If you can't take on requests, you won't be able to stay at the inn. Can you solve that with your determination?' and so on. It was quite harsh."

"Haha."

The scene easily came to mind, and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Anyway, we'll be traveling around the outskirts of the capital for a while... and then, if we feel like it, we'll move to Horizon."

"I see. Then, we'll postpone the drinking until then."

"I'm looking forward to being treated."

"Let's meet again."

Cell and Axe smiled at me...

In return, I smiled at them.

And... we shook hands, something that couldn't be done before, bidding farewell.

I hope we can meet again...

Walking down our respective paths.

TL Note-  Life is nothing but hellos and goodbyes...
