I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

One day in the woods......

Then we left the city of Aether and came to a nearby forest.

Honeybird, my guide this time, is flying patsy as I walk.

"Hey, do you like to sing birds? You want to get together in a herd and sing?

"Songs? Why are we singing songs?"

"No, the answer is fine."

I was just curious to ask, but apparently the birds who were in Asma village were just changing.

I hear Honeybird doesn't sing at all.

"By the way, where are the golden nuts?

'We're still ahead of us. You don't usually fly this slow, so you can't even guess the distance.'

"By the way, what do you say your name is?

"Name? Yeah, I don't have a name, do I?

"Is that it? But even though some birds had names?

At least most of the animals in my village had names. Though I didn't like the names they named me, and some guys named me something else.

Some poor horses were named Cottalow even though they were females.

The person named him Merle without naming him, but there was nothing to call him that name as one. Everyone called Kotaro and Kotaro with love because they were funny.

In the end, she cried at me and asked Nina to change her name.

At first, Nina showed a difficult color, but when she called Kotalou Merle, her name was changed because she became better.

I can't forget Nina's subtle expression when she suggested the name Merle then.

'Well, sometimes you get your parents to put it on, or you name yourself. My parents died early in my case, and I don't even have a name. You don't have to.'

"... you've always been out of company, and it's me."

Yes, this Honeybird always stopped at a tree near the guild. on the pompous and wooden branches.

Always in a tree near your guild when you say you have company that seems to be flying fun.

I'd be curious if I stopped at the same place every day.

"Chi, chi, no! I was just liking it and being one! Beh, nothing! I wasn't interested in talking to anyone!

A bird that rattles its judgment and wings and desperately denies it.

Whoa, is there a demand for tundra birds? Besides, he's a male, right?

"Yes, yes, because I'm gonna be your friend. That's right. I'll give you a name."

"Who's my friend! Well, if you say so, you can do it, and I'll ask you your name. '

"Then take your name from Honeybird. Honey!

Yeah, simplicity is the best name.

The animals know each other better, so it's hard to remember if they're not distinctive.

"Hey, wait! Isn't that what an asshole looking guy sitting on a square bench occasionally uses when he calls a woman?

"Come on, honey."

'Wait a minute. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Walking in the woods while having a conversation with Honey like that for a while.

The forest has become a depressing atmosphere, with fewer places in the sun.

If you're a normal adventurer, you've got a bad vision and you're about to raise your guard, but in my case...

"Hey, lick this sap! Sweet! '

"Huh? Why is it so sweet to lick a tree? After I eat my poisonous mushrooms, my mother tells me not to eat anything weird. '

'Come on, lick it. This! Because it's so sweet! It's not poison!

"Is that true? Well, if you say so much... sweet! What the hell!?

'Right? Hey, don't take too much. You're gonna lose my share.'

"Don't be a jerk. Whoa, isn't the green liquid in here sweet, too? Do you want to lick it for a second? '

"Ah! Hey, that's..."

"Awwwwwww! Hey, hey, hey, hey! My tongue is tingling! And I can't move my body!

"Dad said you were the sap that runs to repel the pests."

"You think I treat you like a pest!? Damn it! It's poison again!

What a long, aliquid-tongued animal or demon that licks the sap that makes it noisy in the wind.

"I'm hungry. Do you want some insects?

'I don't want to. I'm not good at being a drool. "

"Uh, crispy and delicious when baked, huh?

"I'm not in the mood for insects today. I want golden nuts."

"What a poor princess!? You want me to die!? Don't go anywhere with so many dangerous demons."

"Unreliable male……"

I haven't been able to confirm it from the left side, but there's a voice.

I hear a lot of voices from nowhere because I came in the back of the woods.

I'll just make sure there's no one in that voice who's hostile by supplementing us.

So far it doesn't seem to be supplemented by anyone.

A lot of voices are mixed in, but that's all I know.

Maybe Honey is just showing us a relatively safe path.

Honey shrugged as the width of the main road narrowed and began to turn.

'It's about time. There must have been some golden nuts growing here. "

"Okay, honey."

"........................................................."

"What's wrong?

'... nothing'

You're a weird guy. I suddenly got a sigh of relief.

I scratched the bushes for whatever reason, honey.

There were lots of lush plants and brightly colored nuts.

Only here are there no tall trees growing to block the sun, so the sun is pounding well and feels good.

I walk out, lightly impressed by the sight of what could be called an oasis in the woods.

"Is that it? This looks like a herb."

Beneath the tree, which had red nuts, it looked similar to the herbs we saw on the message board.

Isn't this a herb?

I feel somewhat different from the herb, even if I sit back and check.

"Don't you know that in the habits of adventurers? That's upper medicine grass. It's more effective than herbs."

Keep it up, dude.

"Because I'm a runaway adventurer... and it's going to reward me once I bring it back to the guild. Let's pick it."

I'm growing around. I pack the herbs in my porch.

I heard it's not a good idea to pick them all up, so I'll just leave a little.

How much will this sell for?

As I was picking the topical grass that way, I heard a frightened voice from behind.

"Is the purpose a golden nut? I'm not going to stand there forever."

"Ha, I totally forgot"

"The fruit of the intended tree is a little further. Let's go."

Honey flying ahead of me in the way that we're going fast.

I rushed after it.

And the same trees lined up ahead, a very large tree.

There were golden, pear-shaped nuts.

The golden light lit up. It lit up the trees and emitted a mysterious glow.

And in front of that tree... there was a big bear.

"Ah... a human being..."
