After finishing the goblins, the other opponents we came across were a different kind of creature than the brainwashed goblins.

Not only were these furballs mostly only (Red) rank creatures, they weren't brainwashed and were perfectly fine.

They were also just jumping and playing around in the big garden-like place covered with glowing flowers that made their beautiful furry skin look even more glamorous.

There was low light in this underground area but the countless glowing flower produced by the power of the strongest one among them. Their mother and the boss that was responsible for these tens of fluffy furballs that can use low-level elemental magic, just like spirits.

But they were different from spirits as they used Mana. But they sure were intelligent beings, enough to have a special language to communicate.

Unlike the goblins with low intelligence, just the fact that they can use magic from birth spoke the volume of their great intelligence and...

'I don't know why these cute furballs are here but, I definitely want to take them home instead of killing them.'

They were... adorable~.

Just the fact that they were very rare creatures hardly ever found in deep forests, as well as the fact that they were a protected species by the magic tower, spoke for their value.

They were cute and strong, but when they got angry and revealed their nine-centimeter-long steel teeth that could easily chew the hard rock and ores, even experienced adventurers might get frightened.

Their appearance after showing their teeth was a scary thing but, well, I had seen creatures covered with mouths full of sharp teeth in the dark forest, so these fluffy furballs were cute in all aspects.

I knew their value, and they looked just adorable~ so I knew Anna will love them.

They will make good playmates for Anna and... they liked greenery, flowers, and big places.

Just the fact that they were here, in this underground place, which was small and lacked any great greenery, was absolutely wrong.

They weren't in their natural habitat right now... it was easy to guess the reason for this one, too.

The strongest one in this scary place, the evil spirit and our ultimate enemy that must have just gone back to sleep after throwing me here, thinking that we would just die from the obstacle in our paths, was the only probable cause.

It was so overconfident in the traps and the monsters in our path that it wasn't even trying to look and hinder our constant march.

It could have just appeared in our path after separating us and the difficulty would have increased by many times.

But the evil spirit might just be sleeping in its chamber after doing the most ideal thing from its point of view.

So... we were fine and Celes and Lucy were also excited to see the fluffy furball monsters.

[[ Master~!!! What are those cuuuuute things!? ]]

[[ *Oh? To think the nature-loving Povpoi would live in this underground place.

If not for those glamorous flowers, their leader, and their simple nature, they would have just preferred death instead of living in this small place.

But they definitely are adorable creatures.* ]]

Their outer fur bodies were of different colors and the color signified the magic they could use and the special 'attribute' of their spell powers.

They were round balls of fur, had big clear eyes and two long canine teeth showing out of their cute small mouth, and they just jumped around the glimmering flower garden, slept in groups, or played with a particular golden furball that was a bit bigger than them.

There were exactly thirty-three of them and I could tell from the facial expression of the big golden one, she had sensed my weird natural presence.

I was hiding it pretty well and just the fact that this golden one sensed it from this distance was a surprise to even me.

It was peculiar...

"They are called Povpoi, Celes. They can use the magic of up to (tier-3) and have good intelligence so they can actually learn new magic.

They are amazing creatures that mages of magic tower love.. for many reasons, of course.

They are cute, right?"

[[ Yesss~! They are adorable~! ]]

Even she liked them. They might also become a good playmate for Celes.

A butterfly, a small tiger, a spirit cat, a big eagle, and now we had a chance to add some fluffy furballs to this family.

All of them would look amazing when they play together in the front garden...

'Hmmm~. Yes!'

I dreamed of getting these good-looking furballs. I knew they will also be happy to hear they can finally go to a good new place.

But before that...

'Three eyes.'

============

'Yes, yes, little angry birds. I know you also like them but lower those cursings. Little children should learn to handle their words carefully.'

Well, I can understand this sudden excitement from my dear little eyes.

This was a monster with a specialty, something as rare as the [Wise one] or even maybe pinnacle skills holders.

This one was rare, so now I wanted them even more so... I put my bow back inside my storage device.

[Mana shield], (: Anti-magic barrier).

"Let's go meet them, Celes."

[[ Yei~! ]]

We walked forward toward a garden full of glowing flowers and, as I knew, as soon as they sensed a different presence, they became alert and looked in our direction.

[< Intruders! Intruders! >]

[< Intruders~! Who dares to approach my brothers~? >]

[< Intruder! Intruder! Intruder! >]

[< Let's go play everyone~~! >]

All of them had big transparent, innocent blue eyes, just like little children.

And as they were just some fluffy furballs, all of them started jumping in our direction.

Just looking at these colorful balls jumping with pure excited smiles was amazing but, well, when some of the asleep ones woke up and revealed their teeth during a cute yawn... well, I knew the young knights as well as the old knights would be terrified.

'But, they are nothing compared to those nightmares and dead ones.'

But they also weren't just some cute fluffy furballs. They were magical creatures, and they knew magic that was deadly to any normal human.

-Ooooooooooooooong!

Magic circles appeared before their cute mouths as we reached the border of their small home, and spells ranging from wind magic, water, fire, earth magic, and even their higher forms, thunder, ice, and metal thorns shot toward me.

-Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!

They were mostly (tier-1) or (tier-2) common spells, but my Mana shield and Solnova anti-magic barrier were enough to block their 'dangerous' bombardment of tens of different attribute spells.

-Boooooooooom!

Even an expert (tier-4) mage would get seriously wounded by these many diverse spells, but... none of their spells even touch me, their dear guest intruder, which created a great upheaval among them.

[< Intruder strong! He isn't hurt at all! >]

[< Strong intruder! Strong intruder! >]

[< Everyone~! Let's do that again~. >]

[< Lala's magic didn't work? Nuuuuu... how can that be~? >]

[< Everyone? Do you smell something good? >]

[< Even Lala's magic was useless?! >]

[< Everyone! You terrible children! How many times have I told you to not use magic without my permission? How can you go and attack someone like that?! >]

The confused furballs were in a chaotic situation when they all fell silent and looked back because of the voice from behind.

They were the closest ones playing around the edge, so they had moved without any instruction from their elder, after all.

The golden furball, the special one, and their caretaker, hurriedly ran here and started shouting at her naughty children.

But, even before she could properly say anything…

[< Ohhh! It's from the intruder! He smells niceeeee~! >]

And this particular green one that was just sniffing something for a while finally found the source of the fresh unfamiliar smell.

[< Intruder smells nice? Hmmm... Ohh! Yes! >]

And after his loud cry, all the other furballs looked at me with wide eyes, surprised by the amazing scent.

Well, they were creatures of nature, so they must have sensed the high natural affinity and a harmonic mix of six main elements.

I can guess just how this special scent must be, but their excited reaction after that was even greater than what I had thought.

They started jumping in excitement and some of them even used [Bash] on me and I fell down because of their unexpected behavior.

And as I fell to the ground, they just climbed on my fallen body, started sniffing my body from head to toe, and their furry bodies started tickling me.

They were fluffy, but their actual weight was no joke.

They could easily crush a normal person if just these ten furballs climb their bodies like this.

Fortunately, I was fine, and… it was actually fun~.

[[ Oy! What do you think you are doing!? ]]

[[ "It's alright Celes. They are just playing." ]]

Celes was somewhat angry at these furballs that made me fall and were all over me without my permission.

But as soon as they saw her, they were even more amazed.

[< Butterfly! Butterfly~! >]

[< Waaaaaaoooooow! Shiny butterfly! >]

[< Hmm? The butterfly... doesn't she smell somewhat like mama? >]

[< Nooo... it's different from mama. It's more like grandma from mama's stories. >]

[< Grandma...! >]

[< How many times do I have to say?! Come down, you little rascals! This instance! >]

The older one shouted again. And this time, her voice contained a strange power that made even me shiver.

It was a powerful and angry voice.

And as soon as these children heard this, their eyes widened.

They knew this was the last warning from her, and also that they had pushed her to her limits.

Their eyes were shaky and they just silently climbed down from my body as I stopped laughing. They were actually fluffy and tickling, lol...

All of them gathered around her, and she started scolding the ten of them, her eyes filled with clear anger and helplessness.

It was just like a mom lecturing her kids for their very, very, very wrong behavior. Her eyes were filled with a question 'this is what I taught you, you little fluffy furballs?!'.

It looked quite cute actually, so I just stood back up with a smile and shook my head at them and patted the furious Celes who had become grumpy from these cute povpoi's behavior.

Celes could feel me, so she knew I wasn't hurt and instead was happy and was enjoying things, so she calmed down and sighed at me for this behavior.

I could also feel her, so I knew she was fine now without needing any words, so I just looked at the angry mom and her cute little children with warm smiles on their faces.

[< "It is alright. They didn't harm me and they are cute so it was fine~." >]

They turned their heads towards me in unison with sudden surprise and excitement.

All of them were astonished by how I suddenly spoke something in their language, and it was even more surprising to the golden mother furball.

Her transparent blue eyes became as big as a love-requesting cat and I... couldn't help those cute, big blinking eyes of confusion from the children.

[< Intruder... spoke? >]

[< Intruder spoke to us! Everyone! The intruder is like us! >]

[< The big intruder doesn't look like us but he is one of us~! That's why our magic didn't work on him! >]

[< Intruder is our brother~. So he isn't an intruder~! >]

[< Yes~. And he stopped mama too~. He is a good intruder brother~! >]

They started shouting with excitement once again. Some of them even came close to me and started asking countless questions.

And as I was being bombarded by their questions, their mama shouted once again... and this time, it was too serious that they just froze in their places, almost as if under the effect of dragon fear.

[< Now, until I say, none of you will utter a single word. If... anyone of you dares to disobey this 'request'... I don't think I need to repeat myself, right? >]

They just nodded without a single sound... and this was astonishing.

She was amazing and I could tell from this just how much these fluffy furballs respected, feared, and loved their mother.

She walked forward, and they made a pathway for her as naturally as an ant colony giving a queen some place to step on.

She reached me, I bent down and looked closely into her clear blue eyes with a smile but... she first bowed her head and spoke in a respectful voice filled with sincerity.

[< I apologize in the stand of my innocent children from the bottom of my heart, oh divine being. They are worthy of grave punishment, but I beg thee to spare them. I will accept any kind of punishment in their stand. Even... if it is eternal death. >]
