I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

By the time Skeleton returned to the city of Aether from within the coal mine where he lives, the time was past noon.

I was hungry because I only ate wild accommodation and portable food outside.

My body is covered in sand and I want to take a bath.

By the way, there are baths in this world as well.

It is not popular with all families, but anyone can take a bath if they head to a mass bath.

The price is three hundred noise. It's a good price based on the average price in this world.

If you were to enter every day, a week would be five days, so it would take a thousand and five hundred noises.

Exactly. I don't come in every day, but I come in three times a week. This is Japanese. I can't help it.

I don't think bathing alcohol and steak should be the best.

Yeah, I imagined it, and I'm hungry.

Let's just head back to the inn and get dressed and take a bath. And I want a warm meal soon!

As I headed straight to the inn, I put my extra baggage away and then removed the dirt from the mass bath.

Then head to the Adventurer Guild to report on your quest's accomplishments.

"Hey Jed! Is it true you were bowing your head to the rabbit!?

The opening is this word best.

As usual, the adventurers who wander around in the guild greet me.

More like this. How was Quest? I think there are a lot of things about you coming back a lot. Why is that a word?

Is Honey the only one who gave me a decent welcome that stopped at the tree?

Anyway, I'll deny that's a lie.

That was a coal mine quest that suddenly went in, so I just asked him to tell him that the deal was canceled that day. Beth, I didn't even bow my head.

"What do you mean, my lover's a honeybird? If you miss me so much, you can go to the nightclub!

"No! That's just the name Honey!

"What a lovely name for a bird, Jed."

Jocks. Adventurers laughing funny in one hand.

I dive through the adventurers and head to the reception.

"It's Jed. I'm here to report a quest."

"Yes, good job. Sorry to hear that this time."

When I came to report it, he suddenly said so with a sympathetic smile from the staff.

"Yes?"

"It would have been difficult solo because it was dark in the coal mine and one hand would really be blocked because of the need for a light source. Yeah, I don't have a choice. And there's information that the terrain is complicated and toxic gases are leaking, and the attack there is still going to be difficult."

An official who keeps talking to the rash while I'm stunned.

Oh, maybe you think I'm failing my mana ore quest.

I feel a little terrible leaving you to push.

"Um... I brought it, didn't I? Mana Ore"

"Yes?"

By my word, the staff will now make a dumb noise.

Besides, as I answer, I take the gobble and mana ore from the porch onto the counter.

"Have you been picking mana ore!?

It was the adventurers who responded to the voice of the officials screaming as they rode themselves.

"You're lying!? Is he really ripping mana ore from over there?!?

Hey, hey, I need you to stop saying that like I've been stealing.

Tell me you've been mining.

"I heard there was quite a bit of toxic gas leaking near where the mana ore could be picked."

I'm really glad I asked the skeletons to show me around. One person could have definitely died.

I definitely don't want to go mining anymore.

"You're going to appraise me a little!

With that said, the official ran out into the back with a butterfly with a mana ore.

Perhaps you'll have an official familiar with Mana Ore confirm it.

And from the back, he said, "It's real! It's a mana ore! I hear excited voices that say,"

At the table behind me, it was noisy. "Here, give me the stakes!" and so on and so on. "

In no time, each of the adventurers asked for an order to serve and made a scene again.

In the name of my coal mine offensive celebration, it seems that today starts in the middle of the day, with a banquet and your work is off.

Are the adventurers okay here?

When I was worried in my heart, the same staff came back.

"That's amazing. It was all real. That's right, you're a collection specialist. I'm sure Mr. Jed would be able to pick it up, wouldn't he? Is that true?

× × ×

Then when I received my reward, the adventurers forced me halfway into the banquet.

What were you going to do without the lead actor? But that is obviously an excuse.

But I was hungry and hard too, so I decided to mix it up.

The big thrill along the way was that I was crusading over thirty skeletons. From me, that was more complicated than a crusade because it felt like I had purified you, but the faces of everyone who was surprised with their eyes rounded were interesting.

And in the evening, I fell asleep like mud when I fell into a cabin.

Then The Next Day.

I woke up refreshed in the morning without a headache because I was suppressing alcohol for my purpose.

Today we're going to see how Skeleton and his family are doing.

I walk the stone neighborhood with one hand with the notes I received. There are many one-story red roofed buildings lined up here.

The voice of a child who looks fine in a vacant lot. Discover a boy in it with characteristics that coincide with notes.

I heard you live around here, so it's probably that kid.

I think so, and I call the boy by his name.

Then, boy, Carl, you approached me with a strange face.

"What? Your brother?

"There's something I need to ask you. Carl, your mother's name is Anna, right?

"Yeah, I am. Do you know your mother?

I was wondering what to say when they asked me that, but to be honest.

"Uh, do you know your father, not your mother?

"It is! Father, your mother said you were far away, and you're back?

I'm gonna make my eyes shine, Carl. I'm in serious trouble for these words of yours.

How did you answer this?

Perhaps Carl, who is still young, thinks you don't understand.

"Your father's not going to be able to come back yet. Instead, he wanted me to give this to your mother."

"Really!? Yeah! Okay!

I ended up answering in a cloudy way, but Carl nodded without looking particularly concerned.

Then I'll take the envelope, Carl. I asked you a question.

"Are you happy now?

"Yeah! Because I have a mother!

When you smile, Carl, you run away fine, calling your mother's name.

And at the end of the road, the women were laughing with pleasure.

Then I notice your voice, Carl, and I smile gently.

Perhaps that's Anna.

The note was somewhat exaggerated in appearance, but the characteristics match.

As soon as I heard the story, I realized that I was a loving wife, but I didn't have to be surprised to write in the note.

And I don't want you to write about where the black child is in your body. There's no way I can be sure of this.

Carl, take it gently that you jumped in fine, Anna.

Hold it up and laugh happily at each other.

I checked to see what it looked like and then walked away from it.
