Maybe I should just stop helping him

The beast kicked off the ground with a force that sounded like a thud and launched its body lightly into the air—straight toward the second floor of the mansion.
The soaring body headed directly for the room where a single light was on. Spotting the face of the person I was looking for beyond the window, my eyes sparkled.
But I realized something immediately.
（Wait, if we crash through the window like this, won't the glass shatter and cover both Arthur and me in blood?）
Oh no, oh no, this is a very bad situation.
I looked at the back of the beast's head, wondering what to do, but the beast wasn't looking at me. It intended to crash through the window without hesitation or doubt.
This is troubling. I don't really want to use magic repeatedly... because it's tiring. If I were to say that, Arthur would probably get mad.
Smiling wryly, white light gathered in my hand once more. Infusing it with different magic than before, I covered myself, the beast, and Arthur—who was staring wide-eyed at me through the window—with a membrane of light.
—At that very instant, the beast smashed through the window!
The sound of shattering glass, Gashaan, echoed, immediately followed by Arthur's cry, 「Whoa!?」
The beast's momentum carried it past Arthur. I frantically reached out my hand toward Arthur.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the room door open. I heard the beast click its tongue, but I couldn't worry about that now.
（Hurry! Hurry, reach that hand—!）
The small body, the small hand extended toward me—they were right in front of me.
Just a few more centimeters until his recapture.
And his hand touched my fingertip.
（I grabbed—）
「Whoops, not so fast.」
I thought I grabbed him. I was certain I grasped that small hand.
But it didn't happen.
Arthur vanished from sight in an instant. His young eyes flickered with anxiety.
「Arthur!」
「I told you I wouldn't hand him over.」
The beast landed on the floor with a violent tremor. I hastily jumped off its back, but the distance between me and Arthur had already grown large.
「Give Arthur back!」
「If I were going to say, 'Sure, here he is,' and hand him over, I wouldn't have kidnapped him in the first place, would I?」
Standing before me was a silver-haired beauty I hadn't seen before. She was a very beautiful woman, full of adult allure, unlike me.
From the atmosphere she exuded, I immediately knew she was no mere bandit or commoner.
「What is your goal?」
「Heeh, you've got quite a lot of guts, little lady. Judging by you storming in here and everything, I suppose you’re not just the frail wife protected by that Duke, are you?」
「Don't answer a question with a question.」
She clearly had no intention of answering my query. The woman snorted and tightened her grip on the being in her arms—Arthur—determined not to let him go.
「Arthur, I'm going to rescue you right now.」
「Oh, yeah, well... I guess I wouldn't mind staying like this a little longer.」
What the heck was that!?
You—you say that to us, after we desperately charged into enemy territory to save you!?
Did they brainwash him? I thought, but immediately knew it wasn't the case.
「...What are you smirking about, you eighteen-year-old punk?」
「Oh, well, since I'm being held against such a voluminous chest, I figured it wouldn't hurt to enjoy it a little.」
「Go to hell!」
「Ngyahn!?」
Why are you looking so happy being held by the silver-haired beauty!
Annoyed, I picked up a small fragment of the scattered, broken wall... and hurled it at Arthur. It hit him clean on the forehead.
「What was that for! That's abuse!」
「Shut up! That's educational guidance for a stupid child!」
「I absolutely protest!」
「I’m flat-chested anyway!」
「No one said that!」
「Your eyes said it!」
We, who were arguing gyaa-gyaa, had completely forgotten one presence.
Yes, the presence of the silver-haired beauty.
「...A one-year-old is talking... so fluently...?」
Ah, damn it.
