I Was Kidnapped By The Strongest Guild Chapter 292: Tiger Gyeoul

We returned ho.

Though it had only been a week, my tail wagged as if it had forgotten how to stop.

The other children seed to feel the sa way.

Saebyeok and Gaeul's tails wagged rapidly as they stood side by side.

Levinas hopped up and down to show how happy she was.

"Oh my."

Yeoreum, who had been running to catch us, stopped in her tracks.

It was because of all the things we had used scattered near the portal.

"What should we do with these?"

"Hmm... I'll have Yu-na organize them near the tent. Gyeoul, you go rest."

"Okay."

With Jung Yu-na's levitation magic, tidying up would be quick.

I decided to follow Yeoreum's instructions.

'So...'

What should I do to relax?

As I was thinking this, stroking my chin-

"Ho!"

Levinas, who was in the lead, ran towards the swimming pool playground.

Had she been holding back her desire to play in the playground?

I followed Levinas with the other children.

I decided to spend the whole day playing with the kids who had worked so hard.

When we arrived at the swimming pool playground.

Levinas didn't go to the center of the playground.

She just splashed in the shallow water that ca up to her ankles.

"Yap! Yap!"

Splash splash-!

Levinas alternated feet as she splashed the water.

After splashing about twenty tis, she suddenly ran towards the tent.

What is Levinas doing?

I tilted my head in confusion.

"Levinas, what are you doing?"

"I'm doing what I couldn't do for a week! Gotta do it fast fast!"

"Ah."

Is she trying to quickly do a week's worth of routines?

That looks kind of fun.

As I was chasing after Levinas, I heard splashing sounds behind .

It was the sa sound Levinas made when she was splashing water.

"Yap! Yap!"

When I turned around, Gaeul was splashing water just like Levinas.

She quickly alternated between her left and right foot.

It seed she was trying to copy what Levinas had done.

"Gaeul, are you going to stay and play there?"

"Yap...?"

Gaeul, who had been focused on her water-splashing ga, looked up.

She blinked her round eyes, seeing us leaving the playground.

"Master...!"

Startled, Gaeul ran towards us.

She seed flustered.

"If you want to play in the water, you can stay longer."

"No."

Gaeul shook her head quickly.

She grabbed my sleeve tightly.

It seed she preferred being together over playing in the water.

"Then shall we go together?"

"Heh...!"

We all chased after Levinas together.

Sophia followed us slowly, leaning on her cane.

"Carrots!"

Levinas, who had reached the tent, replenished the carrots.

Seol and Kkamang, who had been playing nearby, welcod us.

"Seol, Kkamang, did you do well?"

"ow! ow!"

"Squeak!"

Seol ran around , and Kkamang climbed up my body to sit on my head.

At first, I was very scared of Kkamang, but now it didn't bother at all.

"Hehe."

Maybe because it had been a week, I was so happy to see them.

As I was spinning in circles following Seol, I spotted Master approaching.

"Hmm..."

The Master looked us over one by one.

Then he ca to and pinched my cheek.

"You should let us know when you're back."

"Y-yes... I'm sorry..."

"...Fine."

Pop.

When the Master let go, my cheek returned to normal.

After confirming we were safe, the Master handed us a bag of chocolates and left without saying much else.

After that, many people ca to see us.

Choi Jinhyuk and Jung Yu-na, Yoo Sang-ah and Momoa too.

Encia worriedly massaged my head and limbs, while Argo repeatedly lifted up and down.

It feels good to have all the people I know co to visit.

It almost felt like this world was my real ho.

'...No, this world is my ho too.'

I had so many family mbers here.

The place where all these family mbers are could be called ho.

"Gyeoul, did you go see your hotown?"

Jung Yu-na picked up while I was lost in thought.

She was startled to see Kkamang on my head, but she swallowed hard and hugged tightly anyway.

She had overco her fear of Kkamang and chose to hug .

"Yes. I went to see my hotown."

"I see. Did you... not get to see your family or friends...?"

"No. There are no beast-kin in that world. So we hid in the mountains."

"O-oh... I see..."

Pat pat.

Jung Yu-na patted my back.

Unlike her sympathetic tone, I was feeling elated.

"I have a eting to go to, so I'll be off now. You've worked hard, so make sure to rest well, okay?"

"Okay."

I waved as I got down from Jung Yu-na's arms.

But Kkamang was stuck to Jung Yu-na's back.

When did Kkamang move over there?

Isn't Jung Yu-na scared of Kkamang?

Maybe it would be good to let them get closer.

I blankly watched Jung Yu-na's retreating figure.

"Kyaaah!"

Just as Jung Yu-na was about to disappear from sight, an ear-piercing scream rang out.

It was enough to startle and the beast-kin children.

"G-Gyeoul!"

Jung Yu-na, who had gone far away, ca running back to .

She was stomping her feet like Levinas had done earlier.

"Kkamang, co here."

I reached out towards Kkamang, who was crawling on Jung Yu-na's body.

Kkamang hopped onto my hand.

"Kkamang, you're quite sneaky."

"Squeak squeak!"

Kkamang proudly raised its front legs, while Jung Yu-na sighed in relief.

I hoped they would beco friends later.

Just like how I had beco friends with everyone.

In the afternoon, I went to the adventurer's departnt store alone.

I thought there might be useful equipnt for a world without mana.

Guns were too loud to use in urban areas.

Bows were too hard to pull without mana.

Wasn't there a weapon that could be shot silently and easily?

As I looked around the store, I found crossbows.

'Crossbows!'

They were hard to load, but once loaded, they could be fired at any ti.

They weren't as loud as guns, and I could have Saebyeok, who was strong, do the loading.

There were even so with automatic loading.

They were a bit expensive, but not unaffordable.

'I'll need to do a lot of dungeon runs.'

After looking at the crossbows, I went down to the first floor.

The first floor was set up like a plaza where many people could enjoy themselves.

Fish and whales were swimming on screens densely packed on the ceiling.

Of all the many animals, why did it have to be fish?

Even though I knew they were fake, my feline instincts reacted.

I reached out and jumped, trying to catch the delicious-looking fish.

But the ceiling of the main hall on the first floor was too high.

Even with my jumping ability, I couldn't reach it.

"Oh my, look over there."

"Isn't that Gyeoul?"

People around turned to look.

They seed amused by my attempt to catch the fake fish, the corners of their mouths turning up.

'Instincts sure are scary.'

I lowered my outstretched arm, feeling embarrassed.

But I kept my eyes on the fish on the ceiling.

I was too embarrassed to look anywhere else.

"That baby is so adorable."

"Look at those sparkling eyes."

The growing attention from people was becoming burdenso.

I quickly ran forward.

"Gyeoul's chasing the whale."

"She's so fast, but she's chasing that."

A whale?

What are they talking about?

I naturally looked up at the ceiling.

A whale on the screen was swimming at the sa speed as .

'Oh co on.'

It really looks like I'm chasing the whale.

Do I look like soone obsessed with fish?

But whales aren't fish.

To show that I wasn't chasing the whale, I turned right.

And there was another huge screen there.

Not on the ceiling, but a giant screen behind a glass wall.

Grrrr-!

A massive tiger on the screen roared threateningly.

It must have been muted as there was no sound, but my ears and tail fur stood on end at the sudden appearance of the tiger.

'G-goodness.'

Why is there suddenly a tiger?

I stood in place, observing the tiger on the screen.

It turned out to be a promotional video for a brand called "Tiger".

It was a company that made various products for adventurers.

'Tigers are pretty cool.'

Brave, fierce, and powerful.

Perfect for an adventurer brand.

I stood in front of the screen, watching the looping tiger video.

I was trying to learn the tiger's wildness.

'Is this how you do it?'

I raised my claws and bared my teeth.

I even stood on my tiptoes to look bigger.

"Grr."

I tried to make a deep sound like a tiger, but my voice was too delicate.

It ant I had failed.

'I still have a long way to go.'

Ah well.

As I was lowering my hands in disappointnt-

Click-

I heard the sound of a cara nearby.

Startled, I turned around.

A few people were taking pictures of .

"W-well, it's because of the tiger..."

I blurted out a strange excuse and ran out of the departnt store.

As I was running away, I could hear people giggling.

"Did you see that just now, the Tiger Gyeoul Edition."

"If that cos out, it'll sell out in a day."

"A day? More like 30 minutes."

An edition?

Do they think I suit the Tiger brand?

My wildness compared to a tiger is like a kitten.

"Haaa."

A sigh escaped .

Still, I didn't feel bad about being compared to a tiger.
