I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

I am currently being chased by a demon in the woods.

It's called Giant Spider, a giant spider.

He uses his big eight legs to run through the woods like his own garden and try to prey on us.

"Hey, that size seriously sucks! Hey, you guys, do something!

"Ahoy! I can't! We can't even win like that."

If we could beat him, we wouldn't be here!

Running parallel next to me is a demon named GreatWolf.

The first time I walked into this forest, I managed to be flexible in conversation with the raw meat and asked for a guide.

According to Greatwolf, the recent appearance of demons near Kozak village is due to strong demons coming from the back of the forest.

Originally, Giant Spider was supposed to live more in the back of the woods, but he suddenly came here recently. Perhaps it is Greatwolf's opinion that a powerful demon appeared and was expelled from the territory.

Now Greatwolf, Ashmonkey, etc. are starting to move around the territory because of the arrival of Giant Spider.

When I checked the back, I felt that I had many double eyes and eyes that glowed red.

We take advantage of our physical differences and run through narrow paths and treey paths, but Giant Spiders follow trees and narrow paths, despite having large giants and many legs.

'Come on, Jed. You can talk to demons, right? Do something about it.'

"I can't do that. He's trying to eat while he understands what I'm saying, right?

Yes, it is. I thought if I spoke to that spider, I would know. I approached him. I shook up my courage and spoke up, thinking that maybe I could handle it in the form of a give-and-take, like Greatwolf.

I can't talk to bugs, but if they're demons. With such a slight wish.

And when I spoke, Giant Spider did react. He seemed to understand my words somehow even though he didn't speak them.

In fact, he scratched his head with his legs as if he had trouble hearing my words.

Then he approached me with a lost quote, and tried to twist it around with his fangs as sharp and pointed as a sickle.

My liver was cold then. If I hadn't avoided it like that, my neck wouldn't have been connected.

"Shit, you're unusable."

Greatwolf cleverly tongues.

"You are the ones who fight demonic habits, and you are the ones who negotiate!

"'Impossible'"

'Cause you don't listen to him.'

"They'll roll you around with yarn just because you're close. They wrapped it in yarn and suffocated it.

'You don't deserve to talk about us from him. I don't suppose that's what you think when you're acting more instinctively than we are. "

Marujitsu. That's ugly.

Damn, doesn't everything work out because we can have a conversation after all?

Still, how much difference does Greatwolf and Giant Spider make in instinct? That's quite a mystery there. Does it have anything to do with the brain or reason or intelligence?

"Ah! Yabe! Look forward!

Looking forward to pulling consciousness back into reality due to the screams of neighboring Greatwolf, there are yarns strewn all over it.

Is this his nest? It's a little more open than the narrow roads we've had so far and there's plenty of room.

But I can't move on with this. Adhesive yarn tensioned in front, looming spider in back.

We lost our way. Our legs stop.

I didn't expect you to lure us into spider habits.

'Well, then we can't move on!

The Giant Spider jumps at the same time as GreatWolf's hurried voice rises.

Seeing that, we immediately fall back.

Sounding roar.

Where we stood until earlier, we were trampled to the ground by a leg like a tree. The Giant Spider blocks our only exit and stops by.

Do you think he's already hunting us down?

"…… I hope this happens."

There is no exit. We'll have to do more than talk.

There's no exit, but it's open here, so it's easy to fight. Either way, he keeps running, but he's going to come after him. Then we'll have to take him down here.

"Yah, yah, eh."

"… I don't want to get stuck."

I'm ready, but the two Greatwolves are shrinking completely with their ears and tails.

I wanted him to storm out and get stuck, but that's going to be difficult.

Then at least let's take advantage of the wolf's agility and get away with it.

"Hey, you guys! Anyway, run around and draw attention!

"So, what are you gonna do?

When I speak up, Greatwolf reacts with a vikri and asks me with a trembling voice.

"In the meantime, I'll run."

"'Are you kidding me!

"Lies, even lies! So don't turn your fangs on me! I relieved him of nervousness."

As I keep trying to take me on the road, I rush to wave and deny it.

At all, those werewolves don't even get the joke.

"I'm gonna unleash magic, so hey, keep that spider out of my mind!

"Don't run away, okay?

"Don't try to distract me!

× × ×

In the end, Giant Spider could be defeated by my wind magic.

There were other individuals who came back to the nest along the way, but they also managed to get over it thanks to Greatwolf becoming a snob. Sometimes Greatwolf was restrained with yarn when he was in good shape, but all of them did not suffer serious scratches.

'Wow, it still looks like there's some yarn wrapped around it and it's disgusting'

"Ha ha, 'cause you're gonna get on with it and stick it in."

At first he shrugged himself like the cat he borrowed, but now he's feeling perfectly well and at this rate.

Four Giant Spiders are rolling like Dharma in front of us. The creepy double eyed, which was glowing red, has now also lost its color. Looks like you're totally screwed.

Exactly. It seemed difficult to avoid wind magic in this giant.

He cut off his leg with intermediate wind magic and then stabbed him in the stomach.

"You said," Oh, I'm hungry, and you want some rice? "

"Right."

When the Greatwolves made their swallowing voice, they stopped by the legs of Giant Spider's carcass.

And the Greatwolves cleverly used their fangs and nails to skin their legs.

I can understand the meaning from what I just said and did. But I couldn't help but ask.

"... what are you guys doing?

When I answer that, one of the Greatwolves stops moving and answers.

'Hmm? Eat it. You know what I mean when I look at you?

I get it!? I know, but are you sure you want to eat that?

I glance back at the collapsed spider.

"Yeah, these guys look like that, but they're delicious, right?

The spider? The giant spider?

"I don't know if I like it or not, but there's no way I can survive a world of weak, forceful demons. Well, this guy's delicious, so I'm happy to eat it. '

Answering that, the Greatwolves quietly peel off their hard skin.

Then, from his leg, a crab's body of fiber appeared. Though the color is pink.

The Greatwolves hit the fiber and ate it munchkins.

"Do you want Jed, too?

"Yes, no, I don't think so."

Well, my nerves aren't fat enough to eat this in front of the carcass.

And is it really delicious?

Letter from Gladys

Mother. It's Gladys.

How are you doing this time of year when it's getting warmer?

Isn't your mother and Julia ill?

My father came to see me during this time, so I think he'll be fine.

Though I didn't have to see it at first sight, I thought my father would be fine.

I was able to graduate from the Knights School and join the Knights.

I feel rewarded for the rigorous training and exercises that are out of step with the Knights School.

There are many powerful men in the Knights. I was so confident that my father worked me out, but I'm still no match for him. There's a lot to steal, especially the Knights Commander's sword.

I would also like to be a strong and proud man like the Knights Commander.

By the way, I heard a rumor in my ear that Jed, the perverted adventurer who loves Honeybird, is in the city of Aether? What the hell is he doing? "Look at the world!" This is Jed, "he said," but he's looking at a world we can't imagine.

If that rumor is true, the next time I see Jed, I don't know what to look like.

Letter from Claire to Gladys

I'm Claire. This one is doing just fine.

Julia, who has been acting as a lord, seems busy every day, but she seems to have a lot of fun working on it with reward. I smile very well and bring people... I work with people.

She seems to be doing well as a knight, and her mother is relieved.

My father said it was getting better. My mother was relieved to hear from my father.

Jed, my mother is worried about you, too. My mother also heard from an adventurer you know, Jed.

Jed, you deny it, but as far as rumors and talking is concerned, it's suspicious. We need to ask carefully next time. Yeah, be careful.

Speaking of lovers, what about Gladys? Did you have a lover or fiancée? Even though Julia is here, you're the one who's going to inherit the territory, right?

I want you to have the consciousness as the eldest son of the Clifford family to find a woman who will be a good companion for life.
