-One week later-
"*heavy breathing*" (Tio)
The clash of metal could be heard throughout the forest. Two figures were jumping from tree to tree while the taller was attacking the smaller.
"..." (Luna)
"*cough* ah..." (Tio)
Tio started to mess up her footing and fell from the tree she jumped to. Seeing this, Luna jumped down and caught her.
"..." (Luna)
'Her eyes are gorgeous'
"...Ummm" (Tio)
"...Ah (Luna)
"..." (Tio)
"..." (Luna)
"S-Sorry" (Luna)
"N-No, thank you for catching me Mistress" (Luna)
"U-Umu" (Luna)
I set Tio on the ground and began talking.
"*ahem* Todays solo training has been a success. You only slipped up in the end, but that was because I was pushing you to your limits." (Luna)
"Your abilities have improved a lot since a week ago" (Luna)

As I saw her status a small smile appeared on my face.
"I'm proud of you Tio" (Luna)
"!" (Tio)
"T-T-T-T-Thank you Mistress!" (Tio)
"? Are you okay?" (Luna)
"A-Ah sorry... it's just, I've never seen you smile before..." (Tio)
"...I...smiled? " (Luna)
I touched my face but it had long disappeared.
Seeing my reaction caused Tio to start laughing.
"Hahahaha M-Mistress I-I-hahahahaha" (Tio)
'Was it really that funny?'
I then spent the rest of the day with Tio and used the next day to train our army.
And just like that...

-Three weeks later-
I was currently standing in front of all my citizens. This month was spent training the troops and finishing the city houses. We have yet to start on the castle, everyone wanted to finish it first but I told them they need homes first. But they will be building it while I am away...
"Alright then everyone! As you all know I will be heading to the human town! I need all troops to be on standby! I am only going to see where the captured beastmen are so I need you to be ready for when we are ready to get them out!" (Luna)
"Yes Your Majesty!" (Luna)
...
I arrived outside the city with Tio following behind.
"Tio I need you to go scout the beastman kingdom, that Milo told us about" (Luna)
"Yes Mistress!" (Tio)
"...Tio" (Luna)
"Yes?" (Tio)
She tilted her head in the most adorable way.
"...Be careful" (Luna)
As I finished my words, a huge smile appeared on her face.
"Un!" (Tio)

-2 days later-
'Hmmm that's pretty small'
'Or is mine just bigger?'
After running for 2 days straight in my true form, I arrived at The Jade Kingdom. I turned back into my humanoid form and made my way to the gate. But before arriving I used the illusion magic that Tio taught me to hide my ears and tail.
'I feel dirty'
I needed to appear as a human and that disgusted me. I certainly had the strength to go through the city with brute force, but that would put the beastmen in danger.
"Why hello there miss" (Guard)
The guard at the gate looked at me with lecherous eyes and I swore to myself I would rip his eyes out later.
"..." (Luna)
"F-For entry you need to present your Adventurers ID or pay 10 silver..." (Guard)
I handed the 'soon to be dead' Guard 10 silver that we took from the Knights I killed a month ago. He looked at the silver I handed him.
'He probably scammed me'
'Well it's not my money, and this kingdom is about to be destroyed'
"Move" (Luna)
Without giving him a chance to respond I walked by him.
"W-Wait!"
The future corpse reached out to grab my wrist. But of course I'm not going to let a dirty human touch me, so I used my "Intimidation".
"E-EEEEK" (Guard)
The guard ran away as soon as he saw my eyes.
'What a wimp'
["Intimidation Lvl 2 -> 3"]
...
Well I hope I don't lose my shit by being surrounded by humans.
'*sigh* Lets just get this over with...'
