Happy Wednesday!

Here is the chapter, enjoy.

ED: Ignite

Enhanced Smell?

I looked at Yoru and tilted my head in confusion.

Putting it simply, she would have a good sense of smell. Each of the other five senses have their own enhancements, and beastmen have the highest probability of obtaining these enhancements specifically.

I see, I nodded at Yorus explanation.

For now, to check if what Ria said was the truth, I used the Eye of the World that I havent used in a while.

Ria Lagoon

Race / Beastman

Occupation / Hand of Protection Lv. 52

HP 2500 / 2500

Special Skills

Barrier of the Gods

Certainly,Enhanced Smellwas on her skills column, and moreover, her skill level was at seven, which was fairly high.

If thats the case, if we followed the scent, we could get to where Amelia was.

Even so, we probably need something that belonged to Amelia.

And, it seems that she truly has no combat capabilities.

Her attack power was around that of my classmates who had noncombatant occupations when they were at level one.

Even if beastmen didnt use skills, they were a race that originally had high physical capabilities, so why was she so weak?

Maa, apart from that, her defense was amazing, so it should be fine.

Besides, there was something else that bothered me.

Were you, by any chance, adopted into the royal family or something?

Perhaps she didnt think that it would be exposed, Ria was trembling.

Hhow do you know that?

As I looked into her terrified eyes, I felt like things were becoming increasingly troublesome, so I quickly jumped onto Yorus back.

well talk as we go. Hurry up and get on.

When I pointed to the spot behind me, Ria looked at me with a befuddled look on her face.

Yoru turned his head around and looked at me.

Is this ok? Master-dono. I understand that shes not lying, but we shouldnt trust someone we barely know.

Who said that I trusted her? Im going to ask about the situation and were going to continue on with this conversation as well, so I told her to get on. Time is precious. Were not going to stay here all day in this kind of place. Besides, even if she is the esteemed beastfolk princess, she came to this kind of place, so she should have the resolve, right?

When I said that without looking at her, Ria stood up, her feet unsteady, and climbed onto Yorus back.

Im coming. no matter what, I need to tell Amelia-sama.

Alright. lets get going, Yoru.

Yorus expression suggested that he had more to say, but I gave my order with no intention of hearing any rebuttals.

The fur hanging off his body shifted noisily, and radiated light.

It was YorusMetamorphosis.

The light subsided, and we werent able to see his entire body since we were riding on top of him, but he became a black-furred cheetah-like monster,

His legs were long and slender, and his body physique seemed like it was specialized in swift movement.

Hold on tight. Even if you fall off, I will not come back for anyone besides Master-dono.

After aiming those words towards Ria, he put more power into his muscles.

!?

With one step, the scenery changed.

With two steps, monsters appeared in front of us.

With three steps, those monsters were now far behind us as well.

Behind me, Ria was in a panic and clung onto my clothes.

To be honest, for any other girls besides Amelia to do something like this was nothing but an annoyance, but lets do our best to tolerate it.

They were bigger than Amelias, but Im not the type of guy who cared for that kind of thing, so theres no problem.

I wont say where though.

Now then, firstly, the conversation about you. Pay attention when you talk so that you dont bite your tongue.

As we were advancing at top speed, I turned around and faced Ria.

Having no other choice but to let go my clothes, Ria clung onto Yorus fur in a hurry.

A-as you say, I am n-not a part of the royal family.

The reason I realized this, was due to the order of the skills.

Normally, skills were arranged in the order in which they were obtained.

It went the same for Amelia and I, and the same for Yoru as well.

So that meant that, the beastmen were no exception.

Therein, the difference between Amelia and Ria was that, the skillRoyaltys Elegancewas either the first one or the second one.

I had heard it from Amelia, but royalty were fundamentally part of the royal family before they were even born, and it seems thatRoyaltys Elegancewould be the first under the skills column.

It seems that a long time ago, she saw the statuses of various people with the Eye of the World. Thats what she told me.

In other words, Ria, whose skill was in the second row, had acquired that skill.

There were other deciding factors as well, like the skill level, but those were my thoughts on it.

And, perhaps Ria had been invited into the royal family due to her occupation and special skills.

I was somewhat well-off. I was like any other girl.

Perhaps she got used to the high speeds, Ria was gradually speaking much more smoothly.

The story she told me was one that I didnt see coming at all.
