Chapter 99 : Huh? Don't You Think This is Too much?

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

After lunch, we relaxed for a bit before we headed to the guild. Altair was perching on my shoulder as always while Spica was toddling beside us. The way he walked was so incredibly cute. He would sometimes rub or wrap his body around my leg. It was a little bit dangerous because I'd trip if I wasn't careful. Maybe I should've told him to stop doing that when we were walking....

"I've been waiting for you! Come on! Let's go!"

"Umm... But it's not 15:00 yet?"

When we arrived at the guild, we were ambushed by Jude-san, who had been standing in front of the guild waiting for us. Jude-san immediately walked briskly toward us as soon as he caught the sight of us. As always, his eyes weren't looking at us but at Altair who was on my shoulder. It was clear to see he had been waiting for Altair and Spica instead of us. We had left the house early though so it was still 14.30 when we arrived at the guild but Jude-san was already raring to go.

"Jude-san, I know you must be feeling very motivated right now but your reservation starts at 15:00. There are some people still using the training ground right now so please wait for your turn here!"

"Ugh... Then can I touch them before we start...?"

Jude-san was scolded by Tord-san who was tending the counter. He looked dejected for a second before his mood went back up as he crouched down on the ground. His hands were left hanging in the air, reaching toward Spica but not touching yet.

『Don't touch me!』

『Go away! Master, can I blow some wind to push this guy?!』

Aaah... Spica hates it so much that he's about to use his wind magic on Jude-san....

"They seemed to hate it so I'm afraid I will have to refuse. Spica, you mustn't do that, okay?"

I flatly refused Jude-san since I respected Altair and Spica's wishes.

"But why?! Why?? Why does the magical beast hate me?!"

『Like isn't it obvious.... You're a creep that's why. 』

"Err... What about your own magical beast?"

After being rejected by me and snarled at by Spica, Jude-san groaned out loud while hanging his head down. Still... Of course anyone would flinch back when you went onto them so strongly like this. But... Jude-san mentioned that he had several magical beasts with him so there must be at least one beast getting attached to him, right?

"Ren, drop it. You will have to do him later. It will be hard for you to do him if you get all friendly and chatty with him now."

"Ah, yes. I'm sorry, Jude-san. I'll see you later..."

When I was about to ask about Jude-san's magical beast, Sig-san, who had been quietly watching our interactions suddenly stepped in. He grabbed my hand to pull me away from Jude-san who was still looking depressed.

But... I think I heard Sig-san mention the word 'do' or maybe it was just my imagination...?

"Ren-san! Umm... I have a favor to ask... It seemed the people who came to watch Ren-san's summoning before, had been talking about it and... We've got a rush of people asking permission to watch Ren-san's match... I've narrowed the list down so there will be only adventurers coming to watch but still... Some of the adventurers are not that strong so I'm really sorry to trouble you but is it alright if you put a barrier?! I've talked about it with the Guild Master and he said this kind of thing will be easy peasy for Ren-san..."
