The group of merchants approached us and it was clear that this was a Nekomata merchant group.
Their leader was a rather young man with brown hair and cat ears and he immediately came over to us.
"Thank you, thank you! If you hadn't came to help us, we would have been in so much trouble!!"
He then stretched out his hand and extended it towards Odeta.
Ah… He must have thought she was the leader of this group.
Odeta looked down at the hand that he was sticking out towards her before frowning at him and gesturing at me, "I'm not the leader. She is."
He turned and looked at me in surprise, "Eh? She is? But you look the strongest?"
"Wahahaha! Sister Aster is way stronger than I am!"
"Huh… Umm… Please accept my apologies! And thank you for your help!" He bowed, turning to offer his hand to me instead.
