Big Crow went from feeling offended to admiring his pure-hearted spirit in just a few short seconds.
Yuki Yuichi watched, speechless.
After exchanging a few words with Might Guy, Big Crow looked over at Yuki Yuichi, but soon noticed Yuhi Kurenai behind him.
Feeling her connection with Yuhi Kurenai, Big Crow finally understood.
He was introducing them.
"Are you the new summoner for our Fire Crow Clan... the one your old lady—" Big Crow looked at Yuhi Kurenai. "I mean, the new summoner for our Fire Crow Clan?"
"Y-yes..." Yuhi Kurenai stepped out from behind Yuki Yuichi.
She crouched down in front of Big Crow. "My name is Yuhi Kurenai. I hope we'll get along."
As she spoke, she held out a hand.
Seeing this, Big Crow gently pecked her hand, making Yuki Yuichi break out in a cold sweat.
He'd seen just how sharp Big Crow's beak was.
He had no doubt that if there were a kunai made of wrought iron here, Big Crow could peck several gaping holes in it without breaking a sweat.
Fortunately, Big Crow knew how to be gentle, and Yuhi Kurenai's hand wasn't hurt.
After pecking Yuhi Kurenai's hand, Big Crow flapped her wings and flew onto her shoulder. "You're now the second summoner for our Fire Crow Clan."
"If you need us, you can summon us."
"If any of them give you trouble, tell me."
As she spoke, Big Crow puffed out her chest and proudly declared, "I'll teach them a lesson!"
Hearing her words, Yuhi Kurenai nodded.
"From now on, you can call me Big Crow, just like Yuichi does."
"Okay!" Yuhi Kurenai nodded happily.
Then Big Crow told Yuhi Kurenai more about the Fire Crow Clan, focusing especially on the brutes who trained only their bodies to evolve their bloodlines.
