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

Chapter 286 Secretly...

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

Sunlit Spring.

In a resting place known as such, Rain and Yuki were present.

The two engaged in various conversations...

Yuki left first, and a little later, Rain also departed.

There were two shadows secretly watching their backs.

"...My sister. Do you think they've figured us out?"

"I think we're fine. Perhaps because this is the Spirit Clan's village, they weren't paying much attention to their surroundings."

Sora and Luna, claiming to have some business, followed Rain as he left the banquet hall.

The reason was simple and straightforward.

They were curious.

The fact that they didn't consider Rain's privacy at all was typical of these twins.

In truth, Sora opposed the idea, but Luna forced her way into it.

Don't you want to know Rain's secrets?

Unable to resist the temptation of finding out, they ended up peeking together.

"But still... I never expected Yuki to tell Rain such things. It's a bit surprising, isn't it?"

"Yes. She talked a lot, but in reality, she was worried about us. She's a typical tsundere girl."

"Don't say teasing things like that. Yuki, in her own way, was concerned about us."

"But isn't it a bit of unnecessary concern? Asking us to return to the village because it's dangerous, it's a bit presumptuous. We should decide our own fate. We're not children anymore."

"That's true."

After expressing their thoughts and feelings about Yuki for a while, the twins fell silent.

They were both thinking about Rain.

"But Rain, that guy... to give an answer like that, I'm surprised."

"Yes. To protect both Sora and Luna... saying such idealistic things, it's a bit too much."

"But that's what's good about Rain. Instead of giving up and only looking at reality, it's cooler to dream and keep striving."

"Yes, it's cool."

Thinking about something, their expressions changed, and then the twins' cheeks turned crimson.

"Luna, your face is red."

"Sora, yours is red too."

"There's no helping it. If someone says something so cool, like protecting Sora absolutely... it makes my heart race."

"Yes, my instincts as a woman are throbbing too."

Sora and Luna... they completely had the faces of love-struck girls.

They glanced at each other's faces.

Since they were twins, their faces were almost identical.

It felt like looking in a mirror, and it made them strangely embarrassed.

Almost instinctively, Sora and Luna turned their faces in different directions.

They continued their conversation.

"Hey, my sister."

"What is it?"

"Can I guess what Sora is thinking right now?"

"Oh? Has Luna become able to read Sora's mind?"

"If we're talking about Sora right now, it's easy. Right now, you're thinking about Rain, aren't you?"

"Yes, that's correct."

"Haha, it was easy to admit..."

"Even Luna is thinking about Rain, right?"

"W-Well, you know, that's, um..."

Luna became flustered.

Her usual arrogant attitude was nowhere to be found; she looked like a shy girl.

Despite her usual bold behavior...

Luna was fundamentally a girl.

Although she covered it up with disrespectful behavior and made it hard to notice...

Her older sister, Sora, seemed to see through it.

"What... my sister mentioned thinking about Rain, but what kind of feelings are those? How are you thinking about him?"

"Of course, I like him. I think of Rain as more than just a friend. I love him."

"Wow... Sora, you're bold..."

"And what about Luna? How about you, Luna?"

"W-Well, I, um..."

Luna fidgeted and hesitated.

If there were other members here, they might have been surprised and wondered what was going on.

Talking about teasing is one thing, but when it comes to serious romantic talk, Luna becomes embarrassed.

She gets shy.

After all, she's still a girl.

"...I, well... like him..."

In a timid voice, Luna confessed, her face turning bright red. Seeing her sister like that, Sora smiled gently.

"Hehe, Luna, you have the same feelings as Sora, huh?"

"Well, you see... when someone says something so cool, you can't help but fall for them. It's unavoidable... just like Sora, I was already interested, and with what happened just now, it feels like the final blow."

"That's true. Talking to Yuki earlier was really unfair."

"That's right. It would be strange not to fall for him after hearing that!"

"So, now the sisters, Sora and Luna, are both in love with Rain."

"Oh..."

"So, are Sora and Luna going to be rivals from today?"

"Mmm..."

Luna seemed to be getting back to her usual self, wearing a complicated expression.

"Do I have to compete with Sora...?"

"It's not just Sora, I think. Kanade and probably Tania also seem to have feelings for Rain."

"Hmm... now that you mention it, that does seem to be the atmosphere. Three rivals... what about Nina and Tina?"

"Tina is... a bit complicated. I'm sure she has feelings, but whether they're romantic or not... and Nina, I don't know either. It's a mystery, whether it's affection shown to family or specific affection for someone... it's unclear."

"I have a feeling that eventually, Tina and Nina will genuinely fall for Rain... If that happens, we'll have five rivals... Mmm! We need to settle this before it gets too crowded, don't we?"

"Hmm... Luna, do you intend to compete with Sora?"

Sora had a relaxed smile on her face, as if saying she wouldn't be much of a competition. Inspired by her sister's attitude, Luna puffed out her cheeks and got determined.

"Even if it's my sister, I won't lose. I'll capture Rain's heart myself."

"Sora won't lose either. Not to Luna, not to Kanade, not to Tania. I'll become Rain's, um, girlfriend."

"...Are you blushing now?"

"It's your imagination."

"Hehe. My sister, you're blushing. You've been cool all this time, and I was worried that you might be better in a serious romance, but... I see, I see. It seems like that's not the case. In that case, my victory is possible."

"Mmm..."

Roles reversed, Luna laughed delightfully. Her smile even had a slightly villainous quality. Though weak against serious romantic talks, she was fundamentally a trickster who stirred up the surroundings and a mischievous girl.

"Sora."

Luna extended her hand.

"Let's do our best together."

"Yeah!"

Having learned each other's feelings, it seemed the bond between the sisters had strengthened, and Sora and Luna shone with smiles like stars.

TL Note- 2 down (4 if you count Tania and Kanade) many more to go.
