CHAPTER 26: PONDERING NELL’S EDUCATION POLICY
While I’m in town, I show up at the cat gathering .
Since it was already evening, many of the cats had gone home, but the elder-like cats were still there .
「Nyaa—（Nekomatsama! You’re here! ）」
「Nyan（I’m not nekomata . ）」
「Nyaa（Again, you’re too modest . ）」
Is there such a thing as modesty in cat society?
Oh well .
「Nya（Are you guys interested in basilisk meat? ）」
「Nyaa—（Basi…? What meat? ）」
「Nyaa—（It’s meat from a big snake . ）」
「Nyaa—（A snake? It’s been a long time since I had one . ）」
I decided to give all the leftover basilisk meat to the cats in the gathering spot .
I was getting tired of eating the same meal all the time .
It’s a waste to throw them away, so I’m going to try to give them as a gift .
「Nyaa—（Here . You’ll have to share the food with everyone . ）」

「Nya! （Oh my…! What a fine piece of meat! ）」
Some of the cats at the gathering spot seemed to have heard me and came up to me, meowing .
Well, now it’s time to go and see the girl at the inn, Nell .
I headed to the inn, leaving the stray cats competing for the meat .
When I knock on the inn, the girl appears .
「Neko-san, welcome back! 」
Then I walk into the inn .

「Sorry, Neko-san . Dinner’s already over . 」
「Nyaa—（Don’t mind me . ）」
In the hallway of the inn, I caught a rat and crunched it .
Not a drop of blood spilled, praise me .
The mouse meat tastes somewhat like raw garbage .
It is not very tasty .
「Neko-san is amazing . 」
「I’m hom—ara, Neko-san, you’re back! 」

Nancy, the innkeeper, seems to have returned .
She whispered that if her daughter kept this up, she might not be able to leave the cat .
Mmm, maybe my frequent visits aren’t good for Nell’s education .
Do you want me to come less often?
Sooner or later, she will be old enough to play with kids her own age .
If that happens, she won’t be lonely .
That was what I was thinking about as I kept up with Nell’s reading .
