I introduced Liza
“The na’s Nick. My job is to carry my brother’s herbs to Ractos after he makes them!”
After Milina, it was Nick’s turn.
“Nick is currently working in a store managed by the duke, which handles sales of herbs in Ractos. As he said earlier, he will be visiting Range village regularly, so please rember his face.”
I added. Of course, most people would find it difficult to forget him after today.
“I am Delia. I ca from Bleiyu village, which is quite close to her. Uh… As you can see, I am a beastkin. Regardless, I look forward to working with all of you!”
Ms. Delia said with a bow.
Everyone here already knew that she was a beastkin. So while there were a few who looked at her with a little suspicion or interest, no one looked outright hostile.
“Ms. Delia will be working for as a private tutor.”
“Private tutor?”
“Ah…um… Liza. Co over here.”

I had expected so of the people to be surprised by her, but it seed they were more surprised by what she called .

Still, that seed to change the atmosphere in the room. And the people were smiling at her warmly no.
“Mr. Takumi.”
“Ah, yes. Liza… Sorry, could you go to Ms. Lyra?”
“Okay.”
“Well! Uh… While she is a beastkin, please just treat her like any other child. She is full of curiosity and can be mischievous…but she is very smart as well.”
“Pa-papa…”
“Oh, sorry.”
I suddenly understood how Mr. Ekenhart felt as a parent.
But Liza was clearly embarrassed, so I apologized.
Still, it really did break the ice in the room, and the following introductions should be more relaxed.
“Excuse for getting off topic. Mr. Alfred. Please continue.”
“Yes. Next is…”
This was not a place set up for to talk about Liza. And so I asked Alfred to keep things moving along.
