Summary[]

The story starts with Rein Shroud getting called out by his party members. Arios tells Rein he is fired from the party, shocking Rein. Rein asks for the reason and Leanne harshly says it was done because he is useless. The other members start mocking him, and when he tries to talk, Arios tells him he shouldn't since it'll be pathetic. So, Rein leaves the party along with returning the gear that was given to him.

Rein starts thinking about what he should do now in the city of horizon. While he was still thinking, some children came to him and asked whether he had completed the job or not. Then they ask him to do the usual thing, and Rein happily accepts. Rein sees an eagle flying and makes a temporary contract with it. He orders the eagle to say hello to the children, which makes the children very happy, and he decides to let the eagle go. The children tell Rein they'll become a beast tamer just like him rather than being a hero. When Rein inquires about this, they say the other party members and Arios are always annoyed by them, but Rein is different and always plays with them. At this, he remembers how the people were annoyed whenever he talked about the hero party. Thinking for a while, he decides to become an adventurer.

At the Adventurers Guild, Rein gives his name for registration as an adventurer. He asks the guild receptionist, Natalie Brough, to tell him about the adventurers' system. She gives him the essential knowledge and asks his class. Upon hearing beast tamer as his class, she becomes anxious, which makes Rein remember what Leanne had told him before, but Rein says he'll be fine. He was then told to kill ten goblins as a registration test. Using a squirrel, he tracked the goblins and started to attack them. He kills them off and collects the magic stones. He then hears someone's scream only to find a girl who has been cornered by a Killer Tiger. He decides to use his knife to attack it, but its skin is so thick that the his knife breaks apart. As the killer tiger corners him, he witnessed the girl jumping at a very high speed and defeating the tiger with a single blow.

Rein sees that the girl is from the Cat Tribe, said to be an endangered species. The girl falls, and Rein asks whether she is okay or not. She says she is hungry. After Rein gives her some food, she thanks him and introduces herself as Kanade. While they start talking about themselves, Rein tells her about his banishment from the heroes party , which makes Kanade angry with the hero. This made Rein happy as she was angry for him, and he patted her on her head, and she happily enjoyed it. She then asks Rein to tame her. At first, Rein wonders if it is possible to do so but feels that he wants to know Kanade better and try it, which turns out to be a success.

Kanade and Rein are shown searching for herbs to collect for the guild registration process, Rein decides to use a rabbit and makes a temporary contract with it, much to Kanade’s surprise. He has the rabbit bring its friends and makes temporary contracts with all of them, which only shocks Kanade further. As she believed that beast tamers could only tame one animal at a time and as he had already made a contract with her, he should have already reached his limit. But Rein says it is normal for most beast tamers, however Kanade loudly interjects that it should be impossible.
