Chapter 82 - She Seems to be Absolutely Obedient
[Why do you want to serve Miyama-kun? It’s not like Miyama-kun is stronger than you, right?]
It seems that Rei-san has thought about the same thing, as she threw that question to Anima.
The questioned Anima sharply glared towards Rei-san, before speaking.
[You fool! Do you think that power is the only thing that decided who is in charge!? There are many knights in this world that are stronger than their King! In addition, if master had the same physical abilities as me, that battle would have ended in an overwhelming victory for master!]
[……Miyama-kun, Miyama-kun. This child somehow have a totally different attitude compared to when she’s talking with you though!?]
[E- Errr…… Anima, I’d like to know about that too, so can you tell me what made you decide to serve me?]
[Hahh!]
Compared to when she looks like she’s about to swoop down on Rei-san……. where Anima’s shouting at him like she’s threatening her, when I asked her, she immediately corrected her posture.
[These days, many people run away from me even though they have weapons, but master boldly challenged me with just his bare hands. Even though she’s clearly inferior to me in terms of fighting ability, he held no fear nor hesitation at all.]
[I- I see.]
No, that was just because of Auto-Counter, and I couldn’t even move my face. I was actually freaking out on the inside.
The circumstances just happened to be like that, and if I had encountered it alone, I would have run away immediately.
[Master’s brave and courageous eyes at that time…… It feels like my heart was burning before the fires of hell, as I became master’s prisoner! However, regretful it may be, but when I was a Black Bear, I couldn’t oppose the fate of being under the command of the Special Individual!]
[Is that because they have some kind of ability?]
[Yes! Special Individuals of the Black Bears have powers similar to Brainwashing Magic that allows them to make the other Black Bears follow them! But most of all, my current self may be a former Black Bear, I have been reborn with a different life, so there’s no way I’m going to turn my fangs on master! You don’t have to worry about that! This body and mind exist for master!]
In other words, if I were to summarize what Anima said…… Anima said that because I challenged her despite my obvious weakness, she was impressed by my courage and wanted to serve me.
I felt like most of it was because of a misunderstanding though…… It seems that in Anima’s mind, she has already determined that I’m her master.
[U- Unnn. I think I get the gist of what you’re saying. Thanks for explaining it to me.]
[I’m unworthy of those words. Then, please master, give me your orders!]
[……Errr.]
Anima is staring at me with eyes filled with tremendous anticipation, but even if she suddenly asks me to give her an order……
[No, ummm, I don’t really have any orders now……]
[N- No way! C- Could it be that I’m not of use for master……]
No, no, don’t just give me that look tinged with despair, as if the world is ending, okay!?
What do I do, do I just have to give her an order? However, I can’t just suddenly think of anything to order her……
[……Miyama-kun. I need to discuss something with you.]
[Eh?]
As I was wondering what to do, Rei-san whispered to me.
[Actually, I think Miyama-kun has heard of this before, but Rigforeshia’s Guard Force is rattled for the moment. We’re in a situation where we would even welcome the help of a cat. So, would you be willing to lend this child to me until we finish reorganizing to some extent? And since she said she used to be a Black Bear, I think she’s more than capable in terms of fighting.]
[That’s fine with me but……]
Rei-san is talking about asking Anima’s help to the Guard Force, whose minds were broken by Isis-san.
It’s true that I can’t think of any specific orders at this point in time, and even though it might be indirectly, I still have some fault as to why the guards’ minds were broken.
Hearing what I said, Rei-san nodded once before turning towards Anima.
[Anima-kun, you must be confident with your fighting ability, right?]
[Haahhh!? F*cking trash talking with me so casually, want me to tear you apart huh!?]
[……Errr, how strong are you, Anima?]
[Hahh! When I obtained this body, I was given the same level of combat abilities as a Viscount-level high-ranking demon by Shallow Vernal-sama!]
[……I guess this child really is a former Black Bear. Other than when talking with Miyama-kun, it seems like she’s practically a berserker……]
Anima changes her attitude towards me and Rei-san to the point where it’s easy to understand. How should I say this…… This girl has quite the personality.
Anyway, it seems that Anima’s strength is even greater than what she originally had, as Shiro-san has given her power comparable to that of a high-ranking demon.
Having the power of a high-ranking demon…… As usual, that airhead Goddess doesn’t seem to know the word “moderation”.
[Then, Anima. The elves’ guard force is pretty rattled right now. I need your help with that until they could somehow reorganize……]
[Hahh! Roger that! This Anima will fulfill master’s will with all of my might!]
When I tell her that I want her to cooperate with the security force, Anima salutes with tremendous vigor and with a gleeful expression on her face, she replies.
She seems to be really happy hearing my orders…… Yep. She’s a really unique child.
[Well, that’s quite reassuring. Well then, Anima-kun. I’m going to talk to the guards, so will you follow me?]
[Shut yer trap, trash! The only one who can give me orders in this world is master!]
Hearing Anima’s approval, Rei-san smiles and tries speaking to her…… but Anima’s nails stretched out and directly pointed them towards Rei-san’s neck.
A Black Bear’s weapon is its tremendous power and tough claws, but it seems like Anima’s weapon is also her nails.
[……Miyama-kun.]
[Anima. I want you to listen to what Rei-sa…… Rejnhardt-san says.]
[Hahh! Forgive me, Rejnhardt-dono! For your guidance and encouragement, I will be under your care!]
[……How amazing. This is the first time I’ve ever seen a child so extremely straightforward before.]
Apparently, Anima really has no intention of listening to orders from anyone other than me, but when I told her to follow Rei-san’s instructions, she retracts her outstretched nails and salutes.
After giving me a polite salute, I let out a big sigh as I watched their backs as Anima followed Rei-san to the guard force.
Dear Mom, Dad—— the Former Black Bear Anima had a stern, straightforward personality and was extremely aggressive towards everyone except me. But fortunately, when it comes to my orders—— She seems to be absolutely obedient.
