The Extra's Return

Beastmen, they are a race that has almost the same body as humans. The most noticeable difference is their physical characteristics, which usually still have some of the characteristics of an animal, for example, such as ears, or tail.

The Beastmen lived in the western region of the Averus Continent, bordering the Misonia Kingdom.

To be more precise, it was in the west of the Misonia Kingdom. The area there generally consists of steep mountains. That's where all the Beastman tribes were gathered and formed the Varmint Association.

The Varmint Association is an association that contains Beastmen from various tribes. All the Beastman tribes gathered to create the Varmint Association.

Long time ago, before the Beastmen gathered and created the Varmint Association, they lived a nomadic life, moving from place to place.

The Varmint Association was formed several decades ago. Where at that time, on the Averus Continent, there were still many wars going on.

The Varmint Association was formed during an era of war between races, where they were forced to unite in order to fight for the interests of their race.

The era of war between races was a war fought between the Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Beastman races. Where these four races currently dominate the Averus Continent.

After the war between the races ended, although there were still grudges in the depths, on the surface, somehow, the four races showed their trust by sending various envoys to each side's territory.

Of course, they had some limitations, but it was enough to keep the world from being in the chaos of war anymore.

And a peace is created.

And so, one of those emissaries was Ghost Face, who became the emissary of the Varmint Association for the Misonia Kingdom.

If she was indeed an emissary from the Varmint Association, then her rank and authority were quite high. So, that did explain the reason why she was able to recommend Willa to enter Milestone Academy.

"If you are an envoy, why would you obey Baron Warwick's orders to harm me?"

Ghost Face was surprised by my question, her ears also twitched a little funny. With a frown on her face, she stood back up full of vexation.

"Hey, who wants to obey the old man's orders! I certainly didn't harm you. It's just that, for some reason, your father actually considers me as one of his subordinates that he can order."

'Well, that's probably the effect of the mind control magic that possessed Baron Warwick.'

"Actually I could assume he was provoking an envoy, however, I don't want to play it rudely like that. So, as compensation for I disobeyed his orders, I made his daughter enter Milestone Academy. Wasn't it me who lost here while that old man took advantage of me?!"

She kept on grumbling. Her feet kicked the tiles on the roof of this building. I'm afraid that if the owner of this house finds out, they will curse her.

Regardless, she suddenly rubbed her nose and said something, "Actually, I'm curious about the stench coming from your family's mansion. Especially the stench from your father. So when I investigated it somehow ended up like that."

My eyes immediately widened when I heard what she said. I was amazed that she could smell something like that. Possibly, what she smelled was the demonic mana that came out of Baron Warwick's body.

"By the way, what's your real name?"

After hearing my question, her eyes wandered from left to right, then from bottom to top. Until she finally stopped and started chanting a spell. And in the blink of an eye, there was already a soundproof barrier magic all around us.

Stepping forward, right in front of me, she held out her hand for a handshake. I did what he wanted. Our hands are entwined together.

Standing on the roof, with the sunset in the background, this is the perfect moment for a romantic scene that doesn't really suit an extra character like me.

Fortunately, this is not a romantic scene. She was just playing with me. After our hands intertwined, she winked one eye left, then shook our shaking hands up and down.

"My name is Callie Claws. Nice to meet you."

"???"

'Callie Claws?'

My eyes narrowed as I remembered the name. My mind began to wander to find the identity of the owner of the name Callie Claws.

At first the memory I had of the name Callie Claws seemed very blurry.

I felt as if there was a cloud of fog covering my memory.

However, something suddenly came, breaking the fog and making everything very clear.

[The conditions for using the Memorize skill have been met. Do you want to activate the skill?]

I nodded in response to the system message.

[Memorize skill has activated.]

As a result of activating the Memorize skill, my memory became extremely bright. Especially my memory of Callie Claws.

Suddenly, all the memories I had of Callie Claws filled my mind. Even the little things that I have forgotten I can remember.

Where did I hear that name from, what I was doing when I heard that name, when, where, and how… all of that became very clear.

It's a very strange experience. I felt as if someone was whispering all that in my ear, reminding myself of all the memories I had forgotten. Of course, that's just about the name Callie Claws.

I'm having a bit of a hard time sorting out my memories of Callie Claws. But I managed to put the important things together and just get to the point.

Of course, it was clear that Callie Claws name was the name of one of the characters in the Demon Lord and the Hero of Light s.

'If I'm not mistaken, I read the Callie Claws scene while I was sheltering on the side of the road.'

But that's not the point.

The point is…

Wasn't she someone who would become an important figure in the future. Aspiring leader of the Varmint Association? Why is she here now? I didn't even know she had been to this remote town.

Callie Claws is the name of a neutral character in the Demon Lord and Hero of Light. She is indeed rare, or even only appears once in a .

However, she has a very crucial role for the future.

She will help the hero and his party a lot from behind the scenes. But somehow, she wouldn't be one of Jullian's women. In other words, Callie Claws doesn't belong in the hero harem.

Plus, she's from a black cat tribe with the surname Claws. In the memory that emerged from the Memorize skill, the black cat tribe was a beastman tribe that had specialists to become assassins. And the Claws are the most famous black cat family.

So, that was enough to give me an explanation of where she got the great ability she has now, and the stealth skill she has as well.

Suddenly, a light bulb shot out above my head and emitted a light. It was a sign of an idea emerging from my brain. With that, I had the idea of ​​taking advantage of my encounter with Callie Claws.

I asked her a question. "What will you do next?"

She let go of the hand that was holding mine. She looked up as if contemplating something.

"Hmmm. Of course I will report to my boss. I don't know if I will have another mission or what. Why are you asking?"

"In that case, I hope you can be Willa's bodyguard while she goes to Milestone Academy."

"Hey, are you kidding me right now? Your step-sister will be at Milestone Academy for three years. Sorry, I declined."

She sulked non-stop. Her cheeks puffed up as she sucked air into them. She looked annoyed with her hands resting on her waist.

The reason why I asked Callie Claws to be Willa's bodyguard was actually because I was leaving and wouldn't be able to protect Willa, so I wanted to have her become Willa's bodyguard.

"If you smelled the stench of Baron Warwick, you would know that person is under the influence of magic. Therefore, I don't want Willa to smell like that."

"Then why should I agree to your request?"

"That's because I will take care of your secret mission!"

When I said that, obviously, she was very surprised. Her eyeballs, which originally still resembled the eyes of a human being, which were perfectly round, suddenly turned vertical like the eyes of a wild animal ready to hunt.

Her attitude that initially seemed to be playing like a child immediately turned 360 degrees into very hostile.

Her nails suddenly lengthened. Its sharp and long claws looked very dangerous.

And then, she took a step forward, her claws darting towards my throat.

Without moving, I remained still.

As I expected, she immediately stopped her claw attack that was aimed at my neck.

So, the claws stopped just a few millimeters from my neck. If she's even a little late, she'll leave a deep cut on my neck, or even slit my throat. Of course, that's if I don't fight back.

Illuminated by the sun setting behind us, our eyes met each other. My eyes remained calm, while her eyes remained ferocious.
