Chapter 48 – Unfriendly rival

After finding a Messenger and sending him to Ourelona to deliver his message, Nozomu walked along the main street side by side with Taisetsuna, with the two Unicorns peacefully following them, and as usual, gathering all the attention.

He opened the Guild’s door for her and made a slight bow while grinning. “Dame Taisetsuna, go ahead if you please.”

“Moron…”

As they were walking, Nozomu noticed a weird grin on the lips of a young boy, a Lion-kind, with dark yellow hair and short, round ears on his head. His tail was twitching behind him, and it pointed the tip at the newcomers as if to show that the owner was interested in them.
