516 Bother Classic
I've given Griffon several instructions on the way here.
That there will be people with spears encircling us but they're not the people who attacked you, so keep cool. No need to panic.
I also taught it how it should act when I say some keywords. Which was how it did the tricks earlier. You know, some standard dog's training.
Griffon aced it with a flying color on first try without a rehearsal. Inwardly, I was surprised, 'Is this creature a genius?!'
"I happened to save this griffon on my journey here. It grew attached to me, hence I decided to make it my tamed beast. I'd like to officially register it as one."
I just randomly blurted all that out. I still lack knowledge and common sense of this world.
Therefore, I don't actually know if you can officially register tamed beasts and such.
But the stuff about saving and attached is true. I'm not lying.
The captain's reply revealed my impromptu excuses weren't wrong at all.
"...It does appear that this griffon understands our speech. Very well. This is an extremely unusual circumstance. I've never heard a griffon getting attached to human before. As such, we have to stay on the highest level of alert. I trust you don't mind that? I have to ask you not to stroll this country until after you're done registering as well."
Apparently there is a registration process for real. I sighed in relief knowing it's a classic.
I also only noticed Chimera missing just now.
(Ah, it went off somewhere again huh. What a free soul. I wanna live freely too.)
I can probably make it happen if I use my 'power'.
But I am not going to. I'm neither a tyrant or a despot.
That's not me at all. My only choice is to be picky on how to utilize this power.

Due to the commotion Griffon and I caused in front of the gate, the soldiers stationed here were busy running around calling reinforcement as a precaution for griffon.
(Real sorry about this. Must be a pain. But there's no way around this. Not like they'd believe me anyway.)
They'll let me in once I've filled some sort of form and then the soldiers will lead me to the tamed beast information office to register.
But a problem arose here. I'm told the griffon can't enter to avoid chaos.
Yet, me going alone probably won't do any good. Why you ask?
(You can tell seeing this captain's 'I can't believe it' face. The people at the information office definitely won't believe me.)
Humans are a creature that can't be easily convinced unless they've seen it with their own eyes.
There won't be registration with my word alone.
So I stayed outside the gate with Griffon.
"Oh right, we haven't checked your pass. May I have a look... Who are you really? This is a Second Class Pass... Very well. We shall call someone from the information office here to confirm your tamed beast. Alongside everything required for the registration process."
The captain's attitude saw a drastic change. Second Class Pass is as destructive as ever.
I opted not to protest and rubbed Griffon's chin under the gazes of many other travelers waiting to enter the country.
