Guise smiled at Sherry with eyes as if he was looking at his granddaughter. But then–
“Kyaaaah!”
“Sherlind-sama!”
Just as Sherry was heading for the door, the Chimera, as if under orders not to let anyone escape, attacked Sherry and slashed deeply into the back of Guise, who protected her.
“Guise-san!”
“This is…troubling.”
Guise, with sweat on her forehead, let out a wry smile.
There was no way to escape while protecting Sherry in this state. Guise let out a sigh, wondering if he still had this kind of human heart left in him.
But even in this situation, there was a way to defeat the Chimera.
Unlike Onza, who was so late to grow up, Guise had once evolved into a [Demon Beast] and had only regressed to a [Superior Demon] as a reaction to his rapid growth.
Although Guise could temporarily take on the form of a [Demon Beast] by receiving his Master’s magic power, he had been searching for a way to increase his power in his own way since he came to this world.
In Guise’s pocket, there was a magic jewel given to him by Rinne, which had once been emptied by turning Rinne into a human, but he had accumulated a certain amount of pure magic power from the battles he had fought so far.
It was pure magic power that he was going to offer his Master, but with it, Guise might be able to evolve into [Great Demon]. But at the same time, he might lose the Humanization Skill, which was now in a delicate balance.
And to use it here would mean that Sherry, who was human, would know that he was not human, and he would not be able to take care of his Master in public without being exposed as a Demon.
However–
What would it matter?
Yurushia would be sad if this Sherlind died.
For Yurushia, for Sherlind. For these sweet grandchildren… Guise gave up living in the human world for them.
[Gau].
Receiving pure magic power from the Magic Jewel, the dark brown fur changed into a pure white, fluffy, little bear-like teddy bear.

The next moment, the Chimera was slashed by the claws made of assimilated true iron and its neck was bitten off, easily destroying the Chimera.
“…”
[Gau]
Guise pointed toward the door as Sherry widened her eyes and stared at him, and just as he started to walk away to hide his appearance, Sherry lifted him up from behind and hugged him as hard as she could.
“Guise-san, you were Bear-san! You are indeed Yuru-sama’s follower!”
“…Guise-san, Bear-san!”
It seemed that Sherry was something more than Guise had thought.
