ー A few days later.

 

Ren: (The cat's getting better day by day... That's a very good thing. That's good, but...)

Hey, don't hop around so much. Your injuries haven't fully healed yet.

Serval?: Meow~

Ren: It won't work, even if you act all mushy... I have to go patrol soon. I can't be with you any longer. Please understー

Marion: Ren, for how much longer are you shilly‐shallying? It's you and Gast on patrol today!

Ren: Marion... Sorry. I know, but the cat...

Marion: Are you using the cat as an excuse? I believe I told you not to let it interfere with your duties.

Ren: Yeah, I'll do something about it right away...
I have to go now. I'll come back as soon as I'm done.
Hey now, don't cling to my leg... Let go...!

Marion: ......

Ren: I'll play with you as much as you want when I get bak, so right nowー

Marion: That cat acts like a spoiled child, huh.

Ren: ...! It can't stand being alone. It's like a child at a playful age...

Marion: ......
Haah... it's truly a handful.
I'll make an exception today and look after it, so you go patrol!

Ren: Eh... Is that okay with you, Marion?

Marion: Jacqueline said she wanted to play with cats the other day, so this actually works out really well.

Ren: Thanks. Here, these are the notes I put together on it. Feed it the raw meat in the refrigerator. If it wants more, give it snacks.
Also, this is the toy it likes the most and when it's sleepyー

Marion: I get it, I get it... If anything happens I'll check the notes, so go patrol already.

Ren: Y- Yeah. Thanks...!

Marion: ... It looks like he's properly taking care of it, but isn't he a bit too overprotective...?



Marion: Haah... The cat's finally sleeping...

Jacqueline: Good job, Marion-chama!

Marion: Yeah, you too, Jacqueline.

Jaccqueline: Ufufu, Jacqueline had so much fun playing with the cat!
I was a little surprised when it suddenly disappeared, but it was just like a baby, so cute~

Marion: Like a baby? Don't you mean like a hellion? To be honest, when it suddenly jumped on my face I was about to take out the whip...

Jacqueline: But you endured it. Jacqueline saw it with her own eyes~♪

Marion: There's no way I'd really take it oー

Ren: Marion, the cat...

Marion: Don't walk around so loudly. It just fell asleep.

Jacqueline: Ren-chama, Jacqueline had so much fun playing with the cat. Can I play with it again?

Ren: I don't mind. I'm sure the cat will be happy, too.

Jacqueline: Yay~! Marion-chama, Jacqueline wants to draw the cat, so she's going back home~

Marion: Sure, got it. Thank you, Jacqueline.

Ren, it doesn't seem like there were any particular problems with the cat's physical condition. However, it stays invisible longer than before.

Ren: What...

Marion: You didn't notice?

Ren: N- No... because even if it disappears, it reappears soon after and it didn't look like it was particularly suffering from it...

Marion: Well, I guess noticing it is harder when you're together all day. You'd better keep an eye open from now on.

Ren: Got it.
Today, well... Watching the cat in my stead was a big help...

Marion: I didn't do much, If you want to thank someone, thank Jacqueline.

Ren: Yeah, I'll definitely do that.
