My name is Wolf, it has been 2 and half months since I was transported to this world. Today I'm facing off against the bitch who imprisoned me upon arriving in this world.
That bitch is named Gwaythen. Gwaythen is a tiger beastkin, she has a big build for a woman, she is 190 cm tall and has a muscular body. She has tiger's ears and tail, her hair is yellow.
" That's the spirit. Entertain me, show me what you got!."
The moment she said that she released her whip from her belt and started swinging it around.
I drew my sword, at first I thought that I might not even be able to lift it because I never trained to swing a sword before, but apparently, I can lift it and swing it around just fine. I guess Juggernaut's 'affinity with all weapons' allows me to master any weapon I touch with ease, this is a very handy special skill.
Gwaythen screamed "Let's start!."
As soon as she said that, she started striking every place with her whip.
At this moment I realized something isn't right with this woman. Her face was dyed red with ecstasy and she had the eyes of a beast hunting its prey.
YUP, she is a sadistic who likes tormenting her toys and that means if I lose here I will really suffer a living hell as her toy.
I started dodging her whip and tried to close the distance between us but I couldn't. I guess an amateur with 0 fighting experience can't really keep up with a veteran like Gwaythen, but I kept pushing myself and kept dodging and trying to close the distance as close as I can.
Just before I could fully get used to fighting with my sword, a man roared and everyone stiffened, even Gwaythen.
" STOP YOUR CHILDISH BEHAVIOR!."
Everyone looked at the direction of the voice, the space was distorting in the direction we looked at and a man with a huge body and the same ears and tails as Gwaythen appeared and next to him was a small child with the same ears and tails.
" B-brother, what are you doing here?." Gwaythen asked.
" I should be the one asking you that. What are you doing here?."
"I…I."
" you are the headmistress of the jail, you aren't allowed to come all the way to another country's territory even if we are on bad terms with them."
After scolding his sister, Gwaythen's brother looked at me and said.
" You are not beaten yet, that's quite impressive for a human like you."
" Brother, I …"
" save your excuses for later, we are leaving."
"y-yes."
"Everyone return to the jail." After ordering the beastkin soldiers he looked at us and said.
" We will be returning now, I apologize for my sister's rude behavior."
He bowed and disappeared just like he appeared before.
"Tch, I couldn't punch her."
I clicked my tongue and sheathed my sword.
"well, good thing Mygeth appeared, he is far more reasonable than his sister."
Said the captain.
Everyone felt relieved after hearing the captain's words.
the captain looked at me and said.
" That was brave of you to fight Gwaythen alone."
"well, I had my reasons."
"I see. I will go back and report to the lord, would you like to come with me?."
"Why?."
" You protected the city, I'm sure the Lord will reward your bravery."
'reward my bravery' huh, well I need more coins so it is not a bad idea.
"Ok, I'll go with you."
"Good, follow me."
I followed behind the captain, we entered the city and walked to the huge mansion that was next to the library.
This mansion had a luxurious design and very beautiful carvings on the walls, just what you would expect from a house of a noble family.
We entered through the gates of the mansion and walked up to the huge doors, when the doors opened, maids and butlers greeted us at the door.
"Maids and butlers, huh, this is my first time seeing them."
"is that so?. Well, I understand what you mean, not many common people get the chance to see maids and butlers up close."
"why are they receiving us like this? I feel like I just saved the world."
"Well, you did save the city from being invaded."
The head butler greeted us when we entered the mansions.
" Welcome, captain and?."
" My name's Wolf, an adventurer."
" don't be modest, this is the savior of our town." Said the captain.
"Savior? That's hardly who I am."
"I see. This way."
The head butler guided us to the guests' room.
After a while, the butler called out to us and we followed him. We entered a huge room with very luxurious looking walls and roof.
I had my breath taken away by that scene.
I spaced out until the captain brought me back to my senses by coughing.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
" *cough* *cough*."
I hurriedly followed behind him.
We stood in the middle of the room, and a man with very dignified looks and a blonde hair sitting on a luxurious chair greeted us.
I thought to myself 'As expected of a man from nobility.'
" Sir, the captain and the savior of the town have arrived."
The head butler introduced us as such.
The nobleman looked at me and said.
" So you are the one who protected my town. My name is Richard westguard and I am the lord of this town, I sincerely thank you for your bravery."
"it's nothing, I had a score to settle with Gwaythen, that's all."
" so you are saying you just happened to save the town, huh."
"well…"
I couldn't answer him, if I mess up here I might get myself arrested for disrespecting him, and I can't afford that to happen to me.
"Even so, Gwaythen's soldiers didn't invade the city, so we were saved by you none the less."
As he said that, the door opened and 2 knights came in carrying a big box.
"Allow me to present you with this gift for your bravery, please accept it."
Richard pointed to the knights and they brought the box to me.
"Open it." Said Richard.
When the soldiers opened the box, what I saw inside was a very elegant looking sword that shines brightly and a very luxurious looking armor, I'm sure even B-rank adventurers won't be able to afford to buy gear like this.
"This is…"
" That's the least I can offer to someone who saved my town."
" I can't accept this gift."
" Don't be modest."
'modest' huh, people get jealous very easily and if they see me, an F-rank adventurer who just joined the guild wearing shiny gear like this I'll have many troubles and I don't want to be bothered by those types of people.
" I really can't accept it, this might cause lots of troubles."
" well, if you won't accept it, then I have no choice but to do this."
When he said knights surrounded me with their blades pointing at me.
"???"
" I am the lord of this city and the head of the westguard family, I can't have someone refuse the gift I offered. So, please accept it."
Using his authority to have me accept his gift, I guess he is a different kind of noble from the ones I read about in novels.
" if I accept your gift, it will cause me lots of___."
Richard interrupted me before I could finish and he said.
" lots of troubles, I know what you mean, but I'm sure you won't face any troubles, you fought bravely against Gwaythen after all, I don't think there is an adventurer who can cause you more troubles than her."
"_____"
I accepted his gift, if I kept on refusing it anymore I'm sure he would have caused me more troubles than any adventurer could ever cause.
After I accepted Richard westguard's gift, the captain was leading me to exit the mansion, when a very beautiful young lady with a shining blond hair and clear blue eyes greeted us.
" Captain, Mr. savior."
And she bowed elegantly.
The captain lowered his head and said.
" My lady."
So this is the lady that was kidnapped by the beastkin.
The lady looked at me and said in a charming voice.
" I sincerely thank you for protecting our city from that barbarian woman."
"N-no, it was nothing."
I stuttered in front of her.
She chuckled when she heard me stutter.
" Excuse me." I said in a hurry to hide my embarrassment.
"My name is Victoria. Pleased to meet you."
And she bowed elegantly once again.
" My name is Wolf. The pleasure is all mine."
There was nothing else I could say, after a moment of weird silence Victoria said.
"Now if you will excuse me."
And she left.
"now this way, Mr. savior."
Said the captain while holding his laughter.
" Why are you laughing?."
"No, it's nothing."
" It's not my fault if she had an overwhelming aura, and I don't have much experience talking to high-class nobility."
"I understand how you feel. Now this way."
And we exited the mansion. It was already night time.
"I'll be heading to the inn now."
" Take care."
After I said that, I headed back to the inn and had dinner and a nice warm bath.
I tried on the armor I received and it was really great.
I wanted to go out in the middle of the night to fight monsters using my new armor and sword.
