I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

"Because of this, the goddess Meriarina gave us a magic thing as a force against demons. Among them, light magic..."

Mr. Oonoki tells the fine history of the past without ever getting tired of it one after another.

That's okay. It's finer than my usual studies and tells me easily how people have lived.

But I can't get a glance at the lady next door staring at me.

Why should I be stared at in such a hostile circle?

An unhesitant gaze felt from the right.

When I steal Mr. Oonoki's eyes and skip her gaze, she turns away.

And when I put my face back in the front, I get such a sharp gaze that I feel it tickle.

Hirari.

Puppy.

............... uh, what the hell is this kid now!

Girl with bright brown hair ponytail.

I'm eight years older than I am. So my height is bigger than mine.

His name is Rachel.

Mr. Oonoki's grandson, in fact, is the orphan he picked up.

Mr. Oonoki picked up Rachel, who was in the orphanage when he quit the clergy, he said.

Rachel was chosen because of her fitness for light magic.

Since then, we have been in Asma and live peacefully together while working as a therapist.

Me suddenly appeared at the two places where I lived teaching light magic like that.

No, it's nothing. We're going to live together. I don't care if you're hostile.

This is not because I broke into her everyday life. No, it could be, but I think maybe this is why.

I come to Mr. Oonoki's house.

A brief introduction came the injured man with a broken leg.

Rachel casts a healing magic.

However, it did not lead to a full recovery.

So he told me to try, so that when I do, I can walk brilliantly with full recovery.

I mean, I'm a therapist's apprentice, for shattering Rachel's pride.

If this were the same age, a disciple of the same therapist might have just had to be a little jealous.

But I'm two years younger, and my knowledge of magic is incomplete.

Then came my favorite, Mr. Oonoki.

This can't help being hostile.

But Mr. Oonoki is happy with this state of affairs.

No, I do want you to try to feel this way about being a stepping stone, though it may be a good stimulus and stretch.

"Therefore, because of the strength of the temple of the Holy Meriarina Empire, it is the current situation that many clerics are treating in exchange for a large sum of money. Shall we take a break now?"

Is it finally over?

From the second half of the year, I felt like a lot of things were mixed up like temple stupidity, but I did find that the temple was causing trouble in the countryside and that the world was seriously lacking in healing wizards.

I wonder if the Temple wields too much authority when it comes to the fact that there was a goddess, Meriarina, long ago.

Become an adventurer and beware of the Holy Meriarina Empire and temple officials.

They also have some pretty black rumors. I mean, I was exposed.

"Hey, are you going to be a therapist?

"There isn't. I want to be an adventurer."

Rachel stood up from the chair and talked to me when I was about to take a break.

"Ha!? Even though we can use restorative magic that can even cure fractures!? Then why are you here!

"Your grandfather brought you here!

"Ahhh!

When I said that, for a moment, I gave him a hard look and then pulled him into the back of the house.

"……… What the hell?"

I will continue to come several times to teach the magic of recovery, but will it get tangled up at such a pace every time?

"Hey, is there a Jed who could talk to your animal?

"Hmm?

"Oh, I reacted. Was it true......"

One chicken called out the front door.

He comes indoors with his crushed eyes and his neck moving into small pieces.

"Hey, listen to me."

"What the fuck?"

"You have a little girl named Rachel, right? He's a good kid when Grandpa's around, but when Grandpa looks away, there's nothing he can do."

"What's outrageous?

He said, "You broke a dish or something and you blame us?"

I want you to return what I hold, what I call nervousness.

"What's the approximate extent? I thought he was being slashed with a knife for some kind of healing magic experiment."

"Oh, that happened a few times too"

"There it is!?

I got a surprise response myself.

Oh, Rachel, are you a pretty nasty kid?

"Well, that's fine because it just slashes the nerveless a little bit, and it'll make you feel better soon."

"……… That's okay."

Or is that obviously familiar?

'What's more troubling than that is blaming us for breaking and scattering dishes and things. If there's a case while Grandpa is gone, you'll be polite enough to bring us to your room and cover it up!?' Cause you're pissed off and stressed off. '

Chickens expose their indignation with wings heavily flapping with rust.

Don't you feel stressed about being slashed…….

"I see. Okay. I'll tell you what."

"Please?

Poking my shoe twice with my mouth, the chicken left.

Then a while later, Rachel came back with a glass.

And don't let it hang out.

"Yes."

"Thank you."

"Nothing... Grandpa says to take it"

Apparently, Mr. Oonoki's offering. I don't know what you mean.

Don't mix me up with Rachel right now. I think it's dangerous.

Contains a bite of tea and takes a breath.

Rachel sits silently in the chair next to me.

There is no conversation, there is silence indoors.

What is this... awkward.

Anyway, why don't we talk about it to ask for the chicken?

"" Um (kind of) "

It was a voice made at the exact same time.

"Go ahead."

Rachel coughs up when I tell her to go ahead.

"Well, let me do that. With the same healing magic earlier, you tried to cure the fracture, but what's the trick?

Out of sight, she can drink a little cheek.

I really don't even want to hear it, but I'm overwhelmed by the feeling that I said I couldn't help it.

If this is a confession or something, I adore it a lot, but this world is not sweet either.

"Is that a trick -"

When I roar um, Rachel frowns.

"It's annoying to talk politely even though I haven't been very old since just now."

That's crazy. I'm still noble, right? Well, I'm a kid, and I don't mind if they say I'm in a great position or something.

"Uh, yes, yes. Then I'll talk like this. The trick is, I was better at chanting than I was, and if Rachel had magic, she would have used enough fractures to cure it."

"So I don't know!

"Or should I ask Oonoki's grandfather?

It's better because it's better for you.

When I suggested it, I answered with a grumpy glance.

"'Cause Grandpa tells us to talk to each other ourselves because we can use the same magic."

"Well, is it knowledge that it's a factor other than what I just raised?"

"Knowledge?"

"It's the structure of the human body. With skeletons and muscles and main blood vessels? More finely, cells and all that."

"Huh? Huh? Maybe you know that much detail?

"Huh? If it's the structure of the human body, you're on a medical book or something, right?

Of course I've never been to this world and read a medical book.

All this is previous life knowledge.

"…… well, it was. Sure, if you knew a lot about the structure of the human body, you might be more efficient with magic."

Rachel said, she opened her big eyes and started fishing for nearby bookshelves.

There's all those books lined up, I'm sure there are.

I scrape tea, and I remember.

"Speaking of which, Rachel. I blame the chickens for using chickens or cracking dishes in my restorative magic experiment...... gofu!? Don't be an idiot! You're finally gonna decide you didn't kill me!

I rush to block my mouth and shake off Rachel's hand, which I have grabbed.

Yeah, I don't think he's a therapist. That's Mr. Oonoki's apprentice.

"Oh, oh, where did you hear that! And stop talking about killing and all that nonsense!

"I say it often! Slash the chicken with a knife."

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! You have no choice! 'Cause if you don't get hurt, you can't practice!

"You finally showed your true nature! Oonoki! Your child..."

"Stop it for a second!

"Ooh, you're getting along sometime."

"" I'm not!
