I heard an electric sound just like when Feat and Bolt came, a big animal appeared in my field of vision and then it approached me .

「Haa!?」

…… Surely…… not?

A big lion with red fur has appeared in front of me .

Elephant size? Ah but, I have never seen an elephant up close so I can’t say for sure . But, it would be at least such size .

Uwaa~…… an outrageous animal has turned up .

When I immediately check using appraisal, it’s without a doubt the contracted beast that the Flame God-sama has sent for me .

Scarlet King Leo is an S-Rank monster . Moreover, it’s ferocious monster often called with names such as『Man-Eating Lion』,『Bloodthirsty Lion』or『Red Devil』 .

I have nothing to criticize about its fighting power, but…… this, I can’t possibly take it along?

No matter how you look, isn’t it a target of fear?

「You have been sent by the Fire God-sama, right?」

『Garuru』

Un, just a little purr is so powerful because of its size .

「Ah~ Best regards . Umm, right…… Vector . You are Vector」

『Garu』

Is he happy? It looks fierce, but isn’t it unexpectedly affable?

「Ah~ Vector . Could you become smaller? I can’t see your face like this」

『Garu』

When I said so, Vector shone slightly and turned into a large-breed dog size lion .

A~…… Vector’s appearances are very characteristic so even though he became the size of a large dog, he’s still a red lion .

…… This, won’t it be revealed right away that he’s Scarlet King Leo even though he became small?

「「Vector~?」」

『Garu』

Before I noticed, Allen and Elena approached Vector . Not only the children, even the senior contracted beast came near .

「Allen, Elena . Vector is also one of our children starting today . Get along well~」

「「Un」」

「Joule, Feat, and Bolt too . It’s our new companion . Be good to each other~」

『Wafu』『Gau』『Pii』

Putting aside the appearances, I prepare a collar for Vector at once . Would a matching one with Joule and others alright?

◇ ◇ ◇

When I got out of the sea, I fixed our soaking wet appearances with life magic’s《Washing》and《Dry》 .

After that I prepared the magic tools for Vector――A similar collar and bracelet Joule and Feat have .

「Here comes~ There~」

『Wafu』

「Here as well~ There~」

『Gau』

Vector became completely familiar with everyone and begun to play on the sandy beach .

Right now, Allen and Elena are throwing balls made of wood, and the contracted beasts are fetching them .

「Vector too~」

「Here comes~」

『Garu』

After Joule’s and Feat’s turn, it was Vector’s turn next . But――

「「Are~?」」

「O, oi? Vector, where are you going~?」

Vector went past the thrown ball and started vigorously running . And then, he suddenly disappeared from my sight .

Should I chase after him? While thinking so, Vector immediately returned .

「………?」

N? Vector is holding something in his mouth…… Wwha!!?

「Uwa! Vector . What’s that in your mouth!?」

Vector came with a person in his mouth .

It’s a woman . Vector holds a woman by the nape of her neck and running while dragging her body along .

When seeing from afar, I though it was blood because I saw red . However, it wasn’t blood, but her long red hair .

Don’t startle me like that…… I thought for a moment that Vector had bitten a person to death .

When Vector returned to my side, goron, he dropped the person in his mouth on the ground .

「He, hey! Are you all right!?」

I confirm the woman’s safety in a panic .

There was no response when I shook with her . It’s no doubt that she’s alive, but…… has she blacked out?

「……… Zzz」

No, wrong…… she’s sleeping… huh…… .

「「Sleeping~?」」

「…… Seems like it」

Munyamunya, I can hear a faint sleeper’s breath . How can she sleep so soundly in such situation?

This, is she really just sleeping? But, I don’t see any external wounds~

「Uu…… hungry……」

…… Moreover, it appears that she’s hungry . How carefree~

First of all, let’s confirm her status――

Truly startling contents .

Rather, she’s a demon! Moreover, a vampire!

Demons on Aetherdia have the same treatment as the coexisting Elves and Dwarves . Hostile against humans or worshipping Maou that wants to destroy the world…… they are not such beings . There are just fewer in numbers than other races while living longer lives .

At a glance, this person is no different from a human . Moreover, she seems to be of the same generation as me, yet she’s 147 years old . How long was the life span of vampire again? Were they able to easily live past a millennium?

Her skill composition is incredible!

It may be just my imagination, but her skills are as if an assassination was her family business . She’s actually an operative .

「Vector, was this person collapsed over there?」

『Garu』

「I see」

Vector purred proudly for some reason . He probably tried to give a helping hand .

「But, Vector . Dragging along is no good . This is a sandy beach, you could have injured her」

『Garu~n…』

Vector is obviously disheartened .

「N, no, I’m not angry . Be more careful next time, okay?」

『Garu!』

I’m not angry, but I must discipline him, so he doesn’t go around picking up strange things . I thought such .

Nevertheless, what to do about this person……

――Guu~~~

……………

It’s almost noon, shall I prepare the lunch~

The meal would get covered with sand here so let’s move somewhere else first……
