Re:Zero -Starting Life in Zero

"I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting outside. You must have been bored, meow."

Felix Argyle is a demi-human with medium-length flaxen hair, cat ears of the same color on her head, and cute big eyes that shine with a yellow light.

At this moment, he was wearing a blue and white dress, with a white ribbon tied behind his ear, a gift from Crusch when he was young.

Green was so shocked that he stared in disbelief, and expensive tea mixed with saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth.

Is this guy a man?

"Waaaaaah..."

Green was astonished and began to observe Felix closely.

Natsuki Subaru seemed to have caught Grin in a compromising situation, and shouted, "Haha, Grin-kun, staring at a woman like that will ruin your image in Emilia-tan's eyes!"

However, this catgirl is indeed quite attractive, no wonder Green is captivated by her.

All I need to do is quietly report it to Emilia.

This way, Green, a potential rival in love, can be easily eliminated.

Green paused for a moment, then glanced speechlessly at Subaru Natsuki.

"Look at her, flat-chested and curvy, do you think she's a woman? This guy's a real man."

Natsuki Subaru's eyes widened: "What? She...he's a man? I thought Roswaal dressing up as a clown was bizarre enough, but I didn't expect there to be a master among them?"

Felix was a little unhappy about being talked about to his face. He wrinkled his nose and corrected him:

"That's too crude of you to call someone a real man. Philie is a true man, meow."

Green hooked his arm around his shoulder, closing the distance between them.

"Good man, if I may ask, do you have any older or younger sisters? Would it be convenient for you to introduce me?"

"I'm very friendly towards demi-human races! Look at this furry texture, it's practically a treasure of the kingdom!"

As he spoke, Green reached out his wicked hand and groped towards Felix's ear.

The sound of him turning the abacus could be heard even through the screen.

Although Felix is ​​a sissy, his outstanding appearance shows that his family has good genes.

Those who frequently work in other worlds should know how rare it is to find an adorable catgirl.

Felix shook his head in bewilderment, constantly shifting his neck to the side to avoid Green's attacks.

"Yes, Phil is an only child. By the way, are all the Mezas this direct when gathering information?"

Felix often uses women's makeup to tease other men, but he never expected to encounter a Fury fanatic today, which caught him off guard.

Unfortunately, Green had only watched the anime and didn't know that Felix's demi-human appearance was actually a case of atavism due to inheritance from a previous generation.

Before this fact was verified, his biological mother was suspected of having an affair and was murdered.

Felix himself was imprisoned and abused by his biological father for nine years because of his cat ears and cat tail.

Today I met Green, this guy who's obsessed with orc features, and I don't actually dislike him that much.

Green was plunged into deep disappointment; his dream of raising a catgirl was shattered in an instant.

If there are only male female catgirls and no catgirls, this is going to be very difficult.

With that in mind, Green turned his gaze back to Felix.

"Philip, have you ever heard of gender reassignment surgery?"

"I am Green, also known as the castrated animal."

"I have extensive knowledge in pharmacy and can completely achieve a painless state."

Felix sensed a danger and pushed Green's body, trying to create some distance.

"It sounds like some kind of evil ritual, meow."

Green flashed a smile just like Jay Chou: "Hey~ don't be afraid, you're a man, be brave, okay?"

"I happen to have some good stuff in my room. Since you've come all this way, the Mezas family must treat you well!"

"Something good? Is it new tea?" Felix was a little scared. He shook his head vigorously. "No need, I already had some with Lady Emilia."

Green quickly stopped him: "You're leaving after only a little bit of drinking? That's too lame. Come with me, I'll teach you how to kick a horn."

"Dame dame!"

Felix struggled free and fled in a sorry state toward Wilhelm.

After rushing into the carriage in a few strides, he slammed the door shut.

"Will, hurry... hurry up and drive, meow!"

Wilhelm nodded and bowed to Green in farewell.

"I take my leave now. Let us meet again in the capital, Lord Green."

Clang clang~

Natsuki Subaru exclaimed in shock, "Wow, Grin-kun, you're amazing! You scared them away with just a few weird words."

Green sighed, looking somewhat disappointed.

I've seen quite a few demi-humans in the royal capital, but unfortunately, none of them were presentable; they were too ugly.

Felix was exceptionally handsome, but unfortunately, he was a man.

Just as he was about to head home, Green saw Ram waving at him from not far away.

"Green, where have you been again?"

Ram's voice startled Subaru Natsuki, who picked up his tea set and ran away quickly.

Ram glanced at Subaru Natsuki's retreating figure with disdain. If she didn't have important business to attend to, she would definitely teach this traitor a lesson.

"Come with me. Lord Roswaal and Lady Emilia are waiting for you in the drawing room."

……

Green lay back on the soft sofa and sipped the thorny leaf tea on the table.

It has a slightly bitter taste, which is refreshing, but it's still quite different from the small red leaf black tea.

"Let me be Emilia's temporary knight? That's possible, but I don't really look like a knight."

Roswaal smiled faintly: "Not at all~ Grin-kun is outstanding in both strength and appearance. With just a little grooming, he will definitely be able to gain a foothold in the Royal Selection Meeting."

Emilia fidgeted with the hem of her skirt, looking somewhat uneasy.

"If you find it too difficult, Grimm... you can refuse... after all, it's a knight position for a silver-haired half-elf..."

"Emilia, please don't say such hurtful things. I've never paid attention to any strange rumors. To me, you're just an ordinary girl."

Grimm quickly stopped Emilia from her daily monologue, saying that this kid's inferiority complex was probably even more severe than Rem's.

"An ordinary girl..." Emilia breathed a sigh of relief, no longer as nervous as before.

Worried that Emilia might misunderstand, Green quickly reached out and shook his hand, adding, "I wasn't referring to your appearance. Emilia is quite beautiful."

"Then, Green, would you be willing to be my temporary knight?"

Emilia's mood improved, but her question still carried some worry and caution.

Grin winked at Emilia: "Well...actually, we can remove the word 'temporary.' Do I need to swear an oath, Your Highness?"

Even if we don't have catgirls, elf girls are fine too!

"No need to be so formal..."

Emilia lowered her head shyly, her voice growing softer and softer.

Can she also have a knight?

This feels like a dream...
