Misha, becoming a human
[I’m going to try that transformation magic now!]
[I see. Finally….]
I sucked in a deep breath.
It seems like I’m the one more nervous of us two.
Misha could finally take on the form of a human.
[I don’t know if I’ll succeed on the first attempt. Luckily, it won’t be fatal if I fail. Also, I know I can do this. Even though transformation magic is fairly advanced, it seems to be somewhat simple to learn for anyone above Lv 25 nya~.]
[It should be easy then since you’re already Lv 71.]
[However, it’s difficult to transform into a human and apparently a Lv 25 can only maintain it for a very short period of time. They’ll return back to normal after one minute… so it seems that this is only useful for tricking guards and such nya~.]
[Ah… I see. There’s a difference in terms of effectiveness even if the magic used is the same.]
Most magics in this world are ranked from (1) to (5).
The magics that are least effective are ranks (1) and (2).
The recovery magic my Misha used is of the highest level of rank (5).
[In terms of efficiency for transformation magic, it’s easier to transform into something with a smaller body than yourself. Apparently it has to do with the ability to visualize and imagine the whole body. As an example nya… it’s easier for a human to transform into a cat than a cat transforming into a human nya….]
[…I see. It makes sense that you’d likely not have problems visualizing a smaller body.]
[However, I have to pull it off nya~!]
Misha said with eyes full of her determination.
Then, Misha stood on her hind legs and looked like she was walking–.
She stretches both of her front legs forward.
Then, smoke started to appear around Misha.
Almost half of the room was filled with smoke.
However, I could not afford to open the window. The smoke thankfully dissipates after a short period of time.
Immediately after the smoke dissipate–.
The silhouette of a young girl appears.
She looks to be about 15 years old.
Nonetheless, her breasts were small enough that I would not be surprised if she says she was younger–. I-I don’t care about that though!
There are a pair of cat ears on her head. (T.L Nekomimi is the BEST. GREATEST!)
There is also a cute tail coming from her behind.
[M-….Misha?]
That child gazed intently at me to seek confirmation.
[I-I…I…. I su-succeeded…right…? D-did I really pull it off nya~?]
At least Misha’s voice did not change at all.
[E-erm… It seems that…. Yes, yes you did….]
[I I did it! Master! I finally became a human!]
Misha dashed forward to hug me.
Due to the impact, I was knocked onto the bed.
[Master, you understand right? I, became a human nya~! I can finally touch Master nya~! I can finally hug Master nya~.]

(I did it, Master! I finally became a human!)
[Well… I DO feel happy being hugged…. But ermm…that….]
Misha is totally naked now.
[…Ah? Why do I feel cooler than….]
It seems that Misha also noticed something strange.
[Nya!!!!!!]
Misha screamed even louder than when she was a cat.  It was so loud it made me take a few steps backwards.
[It is so embarrassing not wearing clothes after becoming a human!! It’s so breezy that I can’t calm down at all!!]
Misha used her arms to cover her body.
Well, it’s understandable she feels weird now. She was covered in fur when she was still a cat after all.
[I could’ve transformed with clothing, but, I failed because I wasn’t used to it…. It must be due because cats don’t really understand clothes much.]
[I-I see…]
[H-…h-hurry up! Get me some girl’s clothes already!]
[I-I understand!]

I went down to the first floor of the inn.
…It’s better to give up. The sun had already set and it is almost night time.
The markets over here have already closed.
[Umm…excuse me? Ma’am…? I uhh…I have a strange request….]
I tried borrowing clothes from the proprietress.
She initially looked at me with eyes full of suspicion, but after a while she started grinning.
[Ahahaha! No problem! No problem! You can have it if you want! My daughter’s clothes should fit! Leave it to me to find something suitable for that size!]
[N-no. Umm that…any size is fine….]
Also, what would happen if you lend Lunaria’s clothes to a pervert? Perhaps Okamisan is not really worried about it.
The proprietress started tapping my shoulder.
[You know…. The voice of that girl was too loud. I initially thought it was a cat but it turns out to be a human.]
[Ah, sorry for the disturbance….]
[It’s alright. We all know what happened. It’s typical for a lady with that kind of work, right? However…do be more…careful next time alright? We run an inn after all. Well, you ARE a young adventurer after all with those kinds of needs so it can’t be helped~.]
…Wait, what?
…
It seems like there is some sort of misunderstanding going on!?
[Oh my…. Drowning in lust, ripping apart that girl clothes…. Ooo that happens sometimes, right? This happened to a female adventurer I know near here so I know all about it~.]
[N-No! Okami-san, T-that….]
[Don’t worry about it! I don’t mind. You don’t need to pay for it since these clothes aren’t that good after all.]
[Wait, that’s not it….]
[However, please be more mindful next time. The other guests might catch on, you know?]
[A-ah?! …A-…a-anyways, I’ll be borrowing this!]
It’s more important to borrow these clothes than to solve this misunderstanding.

I passed the clothes to Misha who is still waiting in the room on the second floor.
[…There is no hole for a tail on human clothes….]
[There might be clothing made for beastkin specifically, but there’s no other choice since this is an emergency.]
Misha could only coil her tail around her waist.
I looked at Misha again after she wore her clothes.
I can finally look at Misha without guilt.
[How is it? It is not…weird…right…? Nya…?]
Misha is slightly nervous.
[You’re…extremely beautiful….]

There was no need to say anymore.
[Th-thank you, Master….]
Misha hugged me again.
I also hugged her in return.
I am extremely happy; so happy that I could even melt now.
However, both a worrying and unnecessary worry appeared in my mind.
About the matter regarding Misha, I have to let the proprietress know….
…For the sake of my own reputation….
