It seems that the name of the before-mentioned Magic Sword wielding girl hasn’t spread.
「Well, if it’s familiar then it’s fine, but… Can you distinguish it somehow?」
「Understood. Next time, wrap with a scarf before passing through. Have to issue a Familiar license later?」
「Got it. How about I just ask you a couple of questions for now, and I’ll write down your answers on the official documentation?」
「Thoughtful.」
「Then first, you’re positive this is a Darkness Wolf, correct?」
「Nn.」
After taking out a small piece of parchment, Urs starts writing. It seems that an official certificate is absolutely necessary to have a familiar.
「Aーnd… What’s its name?」
「Urushi.」
「Urushi. And you? What’s your name?」
「Fran.」
「Next, what’s it’s gender?」
「…? One moment.」
Hm? That reminds me, I didn’t check that either. It didn’t think about that at all.
「Hyuuin!」
Kyaー, Fran, how bold! She just walked behind Urushi, lifted up its tail, and confirmed whether or not anything was there! P-Perhaps it’s simply because she’s a child…? To Urushi, this whole ordeal must be a disaster.
「Male.」
「Kuuuuun……」
「O-Oh. Is that so.」
◇◆◇
After tying a red scarf around Urushi’s neck, we were granted entry into Aressa. In accordance to the Familiar contract, we also received a crest to show that he was tame. It seems it’s meant to be put on a collar or a similar item.
When we arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild, there was a small uproar.
「…… Seriously, this time it’s a C ranked familiar? It’s not like you were a popular topic already or anything.」
Right after opening his mouth, the Guild master threw that sarcasm at us. Still, it can’t really be helped. When any meddlesome Adventurers got in our way to the Guild Master’s office, Urushi returned to its true size and bit their heads. Of course, he didn’t kill them or anything; it was just simple play-biting. They were left half-dead and covered in blood because of it, though.
「And on top of being a Darkness Wolf, it’s a Unique individual? Even though it’s already a rare race…」
What? Unique individual? There’s no way I overlooked something like that. Isn’t Urushi just a regular Darkness Wolf?
「Unique individual? Urushi is?」
「Oh, you didn’t notice? Normal Darkness Wolves have completely jet-black fur, but this fellow has red mixed in at the edges. Because it’s tucked into the scarf, it’s a bit hard to see. In addition to that, it has a Unique Skill. A regular Darkness Wolf wouldn’t have something like that. Even if it was only Level 1, having one means it’s a Unique individual.」
