Abduction 29. Beasts (1)
#A29
“self. “I can’t do this anymore.”
“hmm? Is there a problem?”
Varen, who was lying on the sofa reading a book, tilted his head.
He was taking a sweet break at home on summer vacation.
As I slowly lowered the book, I saw my wife glaring at me with her hands on her waist.
Nemea.
The elite Were Lion, who served as a member of the Imperial Knights and was once Jaipa’s direct lieutenant, was now a housewife and taking care of the household.
“Did something happen at the parents’ meeting? Keueuungcha…”
Varen struggled to raise his upper body.
Even that was not an easy task as his body had become so enlarged.
He reached out out of habit and picked up a cookie placed on the nightstand.
Each cookie, made by Varen himself and filled with chocolate and honey, was almost as big as a human tray.
I was just about to bring the cookie to my mouth.
“stop. “What day is it today?”
“yes?”
“Those cookies. “How many have you been eating?”
“Let’s see… I don’t know because I’ve never counted. “Did you eat about five?”
“Wrong. Thirty-seventh to be exact. “It’s not even noon yet.”
The voice was scary.
Nemea approached quickly and snatched the cookie from Varen’s hand.
“W-what are you doing?! Please give it back!”
“no. “You are not allowed to eat snacks for the time being.”
“Why say such cruel words…!”
“It was cute at first, but this is a bit harsh. Lately, I’ve been wondering if you’re my kin. Look at this belly fat. “How can this be a Were Pig and a Wear Lion?”
“Kuhung!”
Nemea pulled Varen’s stomach.
It was so thick that it had a texture that could only be felt from beef cattle.
It was hard to believe that it was the body of a man who had once been renowned as the most fashionable person in the empire.
Varen complained, his chin trembling.
“Oh, it hurts! And madam. “This isn’t belly fat…”
“Forget the virtue joke. These days, I’m seriously contemplating whether to use a separate room. Do you know how much space your bed takes up? “Do you know how I feel curled up and sleeping in a cold remote area even though it’s not even cold weather training?”
“Well, I can’t believe there were such difficulties. “I didn’t even know in my dreams.”
“Haha, to be honest, I can tolerate that. Because I love myself. But these days, I can’t get my work done because I’m so worried about my health. What are you going to do if your kids collapse from high blood pressure or diabetes when they are growing up? Once you start a family, you should know that your life is no longer yours alone. “Even if you are one of the richest men in the empire, if you lose your health, it’s all over.”
Perhaps because he was a former adjutant, his eloquence was excellent.
I couldn’t even refute it because it was all true.
Varen listened to her speech without saying a word.
“Oh, okay ma’am. I was wrong. “Let’s lose weight.”
“Do not be ridiculous. “Do you know that this is already the 14th time this year that you have made such an announcement?”
“I’m really going to take it out this time! I, Varen Panasir, may look like this, but I was an adventurer who traveled the continent when I was young. “I will return to the way I was when I first met my wife, so there is only one last thing…”
Varen’s hand slowly moved towards the cookie.
At this point, even the word “addiction” was no longer enough.
slam!
Nemea’s tail flew like a whip and hit the back of his hand.
“Kuhung!”
“Can’t you come to your senses even in this situation?! It won’t work either. “We have no choice but to take special measures.”
“T-special measures?”
I didn’t have a very good feeling.
Varen was nervous as he swallowed his saliva.
Suddenly, the door to the study opened and an old man with a long beard walked out.
He greeted Varen.
“Nice to meet you. Mr. Varen.”
“Kyo, principal?!”
Varen’s eyes widened.
It was Krava Kratir, a master of space magic and the principal of the Imperial Phileon Academy.
Marfez, the dream bird, his soul mate, was dozing off in his arms.
– P.i.i.i.u..
“Oh my god, how long have you been there?”
Varen jumped up.
The sofa, which had been on the verge of being crushed, creaked as if it was trying to catch its breath.
Kratir said.
“About 30 minutes…Miss Nemea asked me so earnestly that I came. “She is here, eavesdropping on the conversation, and decides to come out when the conditions are met.”
“What are the conditions?”
“The condition was that you try to eat snacks right after you declared that you wanted to lose weight. I hoped not, but Ms. Nemea’s prediction fell without a single error. “You too are a very consistent man.”
Kratir chuckled.
Varen’s face turned red with shame.
Just as he was about to make an excuse, Kratir snapped his fingers.

Perfect!
With a cheerful sound, the space in front of me was distorted and a huge portal appeared.
“Okay then, let’s go in now. “He was the best explorer, so he wouldn’t need much luggage.”
“···yes?”
“This is a special measure. It certainly seems to me that you have become a little too dependable. For the sake of your health and the prestige of Phileon Academy, I would recommend that you lose weight.
“Oh, no. You just said you were going to take it out. “There’s no need to do this…!”
“I already told the kids everything. “I and my staff will take care of all the childcare and management of the estate, so don’t worry about yourself and just go.”
Nemea nodded.
At the same time, I pushed my dazed husband towards the portal.
Because he was careless, Varen fell backwards.
“Kuhuhuhhh! Boo, ma’am! “Principal!”
“I’m sorry, honey.”
“Please forgive me for making this choice. Varen.”
“Where are you sending me! no!!”
Varen cried out pathetically, but in vain.
The portal swallowed him up in an instant and then closed.
Kratir smiled, smoothing his beard.
“Hehe, it would be nice to see you looking a little sharper on the opening day of school. “I’m looking forward to this.”
“Thank you, Principal… I asked because I didn’t think he could do it on his own, but it’s okay, right?”
Nemea muttered in a worried voice.
Even though he took a hard line, he was still a loving husband.
I felt like I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself if I got seriously hurt.
Kratir shook his head.
“It’s okay, Miss Nemea. “Even if I fall into hell, I am a friend who will come back alive.”
“Is it really that much? Now that I think about it, I was just wondering what the explorer was doing…”
“Oh, I guess I didn’t hear you correctly. Varen came to Phileon at the direct invitation of His Majesty the Emperor. He was a renowned scholar and explorer before he became a professor. “There are probably more than a thousand remote areas and routes that that friend has pioneered.”
I still vividly remember the first time I met Varen.
His gentle personality was no different from now.
At that time, his body was so good that it could be said that it was the descending of a beast god.
Its entire body was covered with sculptural muscles, and its tail was like a whip made of steel.
The wildly fluttering black-brown mane was as wild as Jaifa.
‘Honestly, I was a little scared. People do look a lot better now.’
The current Baren, who had changed like pudding, was attractive in his own way, but the problem was his health.
No matter how strong the race was, obesity was the root of all diseases.
Nemea was twice as tall as Kratir, so she couldn’t pat him on the shoulder.
Kratir put Marfez down on the sofa and comforted her.
“So don’t worry, Miss Nemea. “My husband will overcome his ordeal and come back.”
****
“Kuhhhhh!”
Varen, who had escaped from the portal, flopped forward.
The round, large figure rolled about two times and then stopped.
He barely got up, opened his eyes wide, and shouted.
“Oh, no! Do not go!”
The portal was disappearing.
He ran, waddling his heavy body, but the crack in space disappeared just before Varen’s hand could reach it.
“Ah… ahhh…”
Varen sat down.
The way to return home comfortably has completely disappeared.
He felt nauseous from the feeling of motion sickness that rose up later.
“Wow…!”
It was a side effect of spatial movement.
I felt particularly disgusted because it had been a long time since I had experienced this.
Varen raised his head only after spitting up all the cookies he had eaten in broad daylight.
“So… here…”
As the feeling of fullness disappeared, reason returned.
Varen slowly looked around. There was not a single blade of grass on the ground filled with black stones.
Snowflakes like crumbs were falling under a gloomy sky that could not be called blue.
Pile of snow piled up here and there, bones of wild animals seen occasionally.
It was a landscape completely opposite to the lush greenery of the island.
Hehehe!
Suddenly, a strong wind blowing from the north enveloped Varen.
“Ugh?!”
Varen was startled and flinched.
It was a chill that made the hairs on my entire body stand on end.
It was not easy to make werelions, who were born with thick fur, feel the cold.
Even if I traveled around the north in winter, it wasn’t like this, no way.
‘Probably not. No matter how harsh it is, it won’t be that way.’
Varen, struggling to swallow the ominous feeling, took a step forward.
My body became so heavy that even the slightest movement made my knees hurt.
Before long, he stood on a high rock and looked at the surrounding terrain once again.
“Oh my god.”
As my field of vision expanded, I was able to see things that I had not seen before.
Varen’s gaze was fixed on the distant coastline.
Ice was floating on the dark blue sea.
Drift ice, reminiscent of marshmallows in hot chocolate, was an element that was only available in very limited places.
Varen sighed.
“······Heiran.”
The polar region where Ronan and Adeshan once visited.
The northernmost part of the continent without even a small village.
The only place colder than here was the Sea of Ghosts called the Demon World.
“This… this is really too much, isn’t it?”
Varen cried.
No matter how much weight I gained, this was so inhumane.
They dropped it right in Heiran, not anywhere else.
Even if you run at full speed without sleep, it would take more than a month to reach the empire.
Of course, I was going to lose weight.
If only I could return alive.
Varen’s teeth chattered as the cold wind blew again.
“Ugh… I guess I should do something about the cold first.”
If I continued like this, I was going to freeze to death, dieting and all.
It was only natural that he came wearing short sleeves and shorts without a coat or anything.
I need to get some hide or some shelter.
After coming to his senses, he was about to move again.
Someone’s urgent voice rang from afar.
“Damn it… hehe! “Get away from me, you bastards!”
“Kaaaaaa! “Kwaaak!”
Varen turned his head.
A fox beast was being chased by a pack of wolves.
Judging by its unusually abundant fur, it was a woolly wolf that only lives in unusually cold places in the North.
“Oh my, it’s dangerous…!”
Varen immediately kicked the ground and jumped up.
A golden aura that amplified his strength was wrapped around his legs.
Normally, even climbing stairs was difficult for him, but with Aurors, he was able to become a superhuman for about 10 minutes a day.
Two leaps were enough to close the distance.
As soon as Varen landed, he hit the floor with his fist.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
The ground flipped over with an enormous shock wave.
“Kkegaeng!”
“Kang!”
The ground rose in a fan shape and hit the wolves.
The torrent of dirt and rocks was reminiscent of the moment a huge river bursts.
Only the three or four that were barely swept away ran away screaming.
Varen, who had lifted his aura, looked back at Wearfox.
“Hey, are you okay?! “Are you hurt anywhere?”
“······Thanks to. “That’s incredible strength.”
Wearfox was impressed.
It was a power more magical than magic.
Suddenly, the man who was about to express his gratitude to Varen narrowed his eyes.
“Wait a minute, you…”
“Hmm?”
It was the same with Varen.
Wearfox’s facial expressions looked vaguely familiar.
That too, very much.
The two people who looked at each other for a long time opened their mouths at the same time.
“Professor Varen?”
“Aren’t you Professor Secret of the Department of Curses?”
