Item Synthesis 1-27

 

Chapter 1-27 (bonus chapter) : The Divine Cat’s Mumbling

 

My name is Nyat-nya.

In this world, I’m a proud warrior of the catto tribe, but my true identity is a divine beast who serves a clumsy goddess in the Realm of Gods-nya.

I had been living in the Realm of Gods for a veeeewwy long time-nya. A thousand years? No, I’m sure it’s much longer than that-nya.

I lived freely there but one day, I could no longer withstand the boredom of living such a long life in the Realm of God, so I sneaked out and went to the world called ‘Earth’-nya.

I love Earth because there are so many delicious foods-nya!

There were so many humans who gave me various foods from ready-to-eat products to homemade food. They were nice people, especially the ones living in the shopping district-nya.

Since then, I started to sneak out and go to Earth about once a month to stroll around the neighborhood and eat delicious food-nya.

One day, I stopped by a house where the owner often gave me food. I ate too much canned mackerel at that house, and it made me a bit sleepy-nya.

As a result, I didn’t realize there was a truck traveling at high speed toward me while I was crossing a street-nya.

Honestly, I didn’t care if I died. I’m a divine being, so even if my vessel were destroyed, my soul would only return to the Realm of God and I would wake up in that clumsy goddess’ house as usual-nya.

In fact, I had died hundreds of times while I was on Earth, so this kind of mistake was normal for me-nya.

However, that day was different. An ignorant little girl who didn’t know my true identity jumped into the street and pushed me away, saving me from the truck-nya. As a result, the truck hit her instead of me-nya.

I never thought there would be someone willing to sacrifice their life for a mere cat-nya.

I was moved by that little girl’s courage, and at the same time, I also greatly regretted my carelessness that day-nya.

I wanted to save her but resurrecting dead people is strictly prohibited. Besides, I didn’t have the power to do that-nya.

Therefore, I returned to the Realm of God and asked my master, the clumsy goddess, to reincarnate the girl’s soul-nya.

My master loves me, so she accepted my request-nya.

However… I was shocked when I asked her where she reincarnated that girl’s soul-nya…

I thought she would reincarnate the girl’s soul back on Earth where she lived, but nope. She sent the girl to the world she manages… The cruel world where there was nothing but danger-nya…

I was so mad and asked her why. She told me that she was currently on bad terms with the god managing Earth, so she didn’t reincarnate that poor girl’s soul there because she didn’t want to get scolded by that god… That’s ridiculous-nya!

Moreover, that stupid goddess only provided the girl with the bare minimum of language and knowledge of that world-nya. Furthermore, she made a mistake and gave the girl the wrong blessing! That’s not it. She even mistakenly spawned the poor girl in the middle of the forest far away from human habitat-nya!

I know my master is clumsy and stupid, but this is just outrageous-nya!

Still, she is my master no matter how stupid she is. I had to bear the consequences of her mistake-nya.

Thinking that the poor girl wouldn’t be able to survive another day in that world, I decided to go there to teach her the common sense in that world and to protect her-nya.

Finding that girl in such a huge forest was very difficult-nya, but fortunately, I found her just in time-nya. I saved her right before a monster ate her as dinner-nya.

I had witnessed my master reincarnate people into her world many times, but all of them chose the blessings that allowed them to survive the cruel world such as fighting and magic skills-nya.

However, this girl was different. She chose an unusual skillー No. She actually chose Alchemy Skill, but that stupid goddess mistakenly gave her the wrong one, Synthesis Skill-nya.

Since she couldn’t protect herself from the danger in this world, I decided to stay by her side for a while-nya.

However, I can’t reveal my true identity because that’s the rule for us divine beings while we are staying in the human world, so I kept disguising myself as a catto, a tribe of half-human half-cat warriors that inhabit this world-nya.

We are allowed to reveal our identity only in certain conditions. For example, if we are in a grave situation that concerns our life and death-nya.

My decision to stay by the girl’s side was not a bad decision at all-nya. After all, the grilled meat she prepared for me was very delicious-nya!

Well, it wasn’t as good as the croquettes and sandwiches the people in the shopping district gave me, but it wasn’t bad at all-nya.

I offered the girl to be her bodyguard, but she might think I was suspicious if I did it for free, so I decided to make a contract with her. I would protect her, and she would cook me delicious food. Such a win-win contract-nya.

That was my encounter with the girl named Kako Manyama, an honest and good girl who sacrificed her life to save me-nya.

I thought I wouldn’t find any difficulties protecting her, but I was wrong-nya.

A while after we stayed in the town called Tranto, I found out that her Synthesis Skill was actually an incredible Skill-nya.

She could create a much better item by combining a few other items-nya.

For now, she’s still not able to perfectly use the full potential of that Skill-nya, but if she did before she learned the true value of her Skill, she might disturb the balance of trading prices and cause great turmoil in the market-nya.

Before that happens, I have to teach her the common sense of this world quickly-nya.

However, just when I told her to be careful and not to use her Skill carelessly, some bad guys kidnapped her-nya…

Yare yare-nya…
