Guest stood in front of a room in a rented house in a corner of the shopping district near Arcana Magic Academy. This was the designated location for the elective course "Ecological Observation Research" in Monsterology...
Suddenly the door opened, and a wolf beastman with the build of a veteran adventurer peeked out. When Guest explained their business, the man nodded silently.
Ah, I've heard. Glad you could make it. Wait a moment. He calls out to the inside of the door. Professor, the student is here. I'm letting them in.
Ah, okay! It's fine, I'll be finished in just a second!
The room Guest was led into was filled with mountains of books and papers overflowing from shelves—and in the middle of it all was a fluffy sofa. Facing the sofa was a desk where a large polar bear beastman in a yellow robe sat, smiling broadly.
Nice to meet you, Guest! I'm Eddie Browns, the Monsterology teacher. And... He gestures toward the wolf beastman with his hand. That's Gil, my assistant and bodyguard!
Heh heh heh... His smile deepens as if he's been waiting for that question. Actually, just about any monster is fair game! There's still so much we don't know about them! Slime types, beast types, wild golems, and above all, dragons! Man, just thinking about it gets me excited!
Guest, sorry. Gil scratches his head. He's a good person, but he's usually like this. I'd appreciate it if you could get used to it.
Ohhh!! His huge body practically bounces in ecstasy. Right?! It's gotta be dragons, right?! They're so cool! Lindwurms and wyrms are sexy too, but the basic species is my favorite! That big, sturdy body... ahhh, I can't stand it...! The fact that they can fly in the sky with those wings, they're truly loved by the gods! I want to get inside one and observe the internal structure, but I'd feel bad hurting them, so it's frustrating... but I'd love to try it once...!
