I Can Speak with Animals and Demons
Chapter 20 1
After explaining the situation to Nina, the keepers rode back with an old woman on the horse.
“Is Fred okay?”
A white haired old woman wearing baggy robes got off the horse and headed towards the hut where Fred is lying down.
I’m no longer useful, and Nina is watching over Fred. I want to return home quickly, but I remain in case I’m needed for first aid.
I came here originally to chat with Kangkichi, so I’m sitting in the grass and talking.
『I see, you can talk with demons. That’s great.』
“I never thought I could talk to goblins, orcs and monsters.”
『Is that true? They won’t attack from the west side of the forest?』
“Yup. It seems that way. I’m worried that they’ll come to the mansion every time they have business, though.”
『That’s scary. Over time, monsters and animals may start to rely on you and turn up at the mansion.』
Kankichi exhales from his nose and mentions this disturbing fact.
“Birds sometimes come, but if Orcs come, it may be dangerous.”
『Can’t you discuss it?』
“No, it’s not like that, my father and brother wouldn’t bother to ask questions before striking.”
『Ah, your father is amazing. I went to get rid of bandits once, and they were swinging their swords over and over. I was pretty excited.』
But it’s a shocking thing. Kankichi talks happily about when my father was on his back.
Hmm, Kankichi really loves my father.
I’m also interested in stories involving my father, so I listened intently to Kankichi’s story.
Then someone called out to me.
“Can I have a minute?”
Now that I think of it, it’s the old woman brought back my the keepers.
She seems around 60 years old? She has a gentle expression and beautiful hair. Due to her still being in her prime, we can easily imagine her in her youth. I don’t want to be bald in the future, I want to be in my prime like her.
‘Yes, what is it?”
When I answered, the old lady smiled, and crouched.
It’s amazing, she doesn’t feel any pain in her knees. Her body isn’t thin at all and looks healthy.
“Are you the one who treated Fred with healing magic?”
“Yes, yes, I did beginner level first aid, but was it bad?”
“What if I told you that Fred’s rib is stuck to the hip joint? No, I can’t do anything anymore. No it looks fine. Fine. It should be fine. It should be safe if every part of the rib is fixed in place. It’s okay because Fred’s defenses have incresed.”
I’m intimidated. The old woman laughs with a gentle voice, as if sensing how I feel.
“No, that was a joke. I didn’t need to do anything because it was treated perfectly.”
“That’s good.”
I pat my chest as I hear those words. It’s good that there was no change in the position of the internal organs.
“I arrived late, but I am working as a healer in this village. My name is Onoki, a former priest. Are you a son of the Clifford family?”
“Yes, I ’m sorry for making you come. I’m Jed, the third son of the Clifford family.”
Do I give off a noble air?
“No, your hair is a testimony of Gerald and Claire’s blood. Everyone in this village can tell.”
Ah, dad’s green hair sure is conspicuous. Gladys and Girion have inherited my dad’s hair cleanly, mine is probably different due to my mother’s darker hair, so I have dark brown hair. If you look closesly, it’s greenish, so everyone can tell.
“There’s also your clothes. Because there are not many people in this village with high quality clothes.”
Is that so? It would still be the case if I wore clothes like your robes.
Everyone in this village is wearing loose clothes. I like that too.
“I see.”
『Only you is wearing such aristocratic clothes.』
“Noisy.”
“What was that?”
Whoops. I talked to Kankichi as usual. I seem like a pervert who talks to himself.
“Oh, no, nothing.”
“Huh, is that so?”
『It seems to be difficult for Jed.』
Behind me, Kankichi is laughing madly. Do you want me to stuff stones under your hooves?
