I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

We were on Pegasus' back, watching the view coming from the sky.

In sight, the trees and mountains that grow in tandem flow.

The trees that we normally look up to and need to bypass, and we go slowly through the sky.

"Wow, wow. The view from the sky is so lovely..."

Ferris riding behind me raises his voice like he's excited.

I've been on a plane in my previous life, but I can't compare it to that.

We get on Pegasus' back and we immediately see the view, and we feel the air on our skin.

It's like I've become a bird.

Wouldn't there be big wings growing from us right left and right? So much so that even such illusions are remembered.

The wing movement is slow, but powerful as if to draw air and sometimes slap.

At the same time, the legs move lightly.

Will this be kicking air or something? Or does it have the effect of waving and balancing or making it easier to speed, like when humans run?

Probably something like that.

Pegasus is flying through the sky without losing his balance when he says he is putting humans on for the first time.

Although I was deeply freaked out by the journey of the sky without a lifeline, the stability was remarkable when I flew through it. If you put a little effort into your crotch for this, you won't fall.

Good thing I trusted Pegasus.

"That's a nice view. I want to see it all the time………………………………."

Pegasus turns his gaze toward me when I leak a word like that.

"Right? Would it be refreshing to look down on the lower bitches from far above?

"No. I don't see the world from such a distorted perspective. It's purely a view from the sky."

I'm staring down like that, so the monkeys snap my wings. What happened to the size of the vessel just now?

'Fine, I want to fly in the sky too. That would make it easier to get around.'

Yak on Ferris' shoulder squeaks.

Sometimes people like you fly in the sky, but can't you do the same?

Sky. Sky. What Pegasus is talking about is probably musty.

It's an animal that lives on a tree and glides from high ground.

'Come on, don't keep me with those one-tailed rats. He said he couldn't do the same because he was similar. You're just like a horse, but there's a big difference between wings, right?

"Must be."

They laugh when they nod at each other.

You don't have a rocky conversation when someone with a high temperament twist touches each other.

Listening to a conversation that wasn't even Loc, he quickly came near the sage tree as he enjoyed the flowing scenery.

The great tree boasts a presence that sets it apart from the trees in the Elf Forest. It's not a big deal, it's like it's just stretching out into heaven.

And there's a deep hole around that great tree that I don't know how I could have done it.

When I climb out and look at the hole, I still can't see the bottom. The hole is deep and black everywhere. I thought I could see the bottom from above, but how deep the hell is it...

"... the elves couldn't get close because of that hole."

"That's true."

"Well, from me running freely through the sky, it's no obstacle!

What, I just wanted to be proud of you.

"What's going on?

Ferris, wondering how Pegasus and I were doing, looks at me and asks.

"Pegasus says he can fly like this."

"That's Pegasus running through the sky. You're reliable."

I feel like I've been saying things a lot since I gained the power to understand all the languages.

"It will be! You can praise me more, right? Elf's little girl."

Pegasus shook his neck high in pure praise to dew his joy.

The self-respecting Pegasus still looks bumpy around here. It's usually a pain in the ass, but maybe he's a simple guy if he knows how to handle it.

Pegasus, laughing in a good mood, quickly leads beyond the hole to the sage tree.

Yak says the sage trees are like mazes, but I don't see the entrance to the heart.

"Hey, Yak. Where do you put them in the sage tree from?

'It's the front from us right now.' Cause there's a hole in the root of the front, you can put it in from there. '

That's right. You only live in a former sage tree. She said that she only remembered it because it was a long time ago, but she remembered about the entrance. Good.

"So that's the front, huh? That's where we're going down?

Tell Ferris I'm coming down to the front, and I'll get back to Pegasus.

Then Pegasus stops at a slow speed to the sage tree.

Pegasus slowly lowers his altitude when he finds a flat ground that seems just right for landing.

It moves its wings more slowly, but more forcefully, even when it is flying.

And as the ground approached Don, Pegasus' leg got there.

There's nothing shocking about us riding on our backs, not even sand and dust. It was an excellent landing.

"What do you say? It would have been a pleasant trip to the sky, wouldn't it?

"Yeah! That's just great! Thanks!"

When I say thank you, Ferris learns to thank me for it.

"Thank you, Pegasus."

"Uh-huh, it's not bad to be thanked once in a while."

Pegasus sounds his nose sung and waves his tail in a good mood.

Then, when Yak jumps off Ferris' shoulder and lands on the ground, he gets up with two legs.

Yak took a big breath and shouted.

"Uh-oh! It's been a long time since I've been home!

Looks like he's excited to be back at his first place in a long time.

When she finished screaming, she immediately crawled on all fours and smelled the ground.

From the yak that lived here, is the place like a garden now? If I hadn't been back in a long time, I wouldn't be able to help myself with that delight.

There was such a big hole that you couldn't even go home if you wanted to.

Yak, who was messing with the ground, then runs out like only memories.

'Look, look at that! There's an entrance right here!

Yak holding his finger close to the roots of the sage tree.

Apparently, he can get in from there.

So, I should wait here, huh? Will you be riding home, too? You can't go home alone. "

"Yeah, thanks! I'll be back as soon as I can."

We walked out to the entrance, thanking Pegasus, who lay in the shadow of the great tree and relaxed.

Then we peek into the entrance in the sage tree.

There was a hole there, like being dug into the ground at the root of the great tree, large enough for a large adult to pass flat. It's like a cave.

"Then let's go."

Our yak, who knows on his own, walks inside without hesitation in a ravenous manner.

Me and Ferris step into the hole like we learn to do that.

Inside the cave was darkness, and when I touched the wall, I felt like I touched a tree.

Is that true? It's like they're scraping through the trees.

"Hey, come quick."

Yak's voice echoes because of the cave.

"Wait. We're not animals, so we can't see in the dark."

"What? Can't a human see as much darkness as this?

"Huh? Can't you see?

"Really? Isn't it hard not to see so much darkness?

Can't you see as much as this? Ferris said with such a tone.

Apparently, there's nothing like this dark in the elves. Maybe it's natural from the elves living in the woods.

I don't even see Ferris' face right around the corner.

"That's why humans flock and make a safe place to live. Either way, it better be bright, right? Because I use light magic now."

Ferris blocks it when I say so and cast a spell to get the light bulb out.

"Wait. If you go in the back, you don't need magic because there's light. Keep your magic warm. 'Cause I'm gonna pull your hand."

Is that right? I can't see the light source at all...

Well, there might be a dark area ahead of us, and you've never had enough magic to keep you warm.

Well, it's the house where the sage lived.

There aren't dangerous creatures like demons, and I don't think you need to be so careful, but there could be much darkness at the end of the light source.

I think so, and when I offer my hand, my palm is wrapped in something warm.

Ferris' hand. Smooth and sucking skin is very comfortable.

It was so muddy that I could even feel like I wanted it to stay like this all the time by accident.

…………

"…… Well, let's go."

After opening for a few seconds, Ferris says so and slowly walks out.

My body progressed naturally with Ferris.

…………

I wonder what. I'm embarrassed to be extra aware of the feel of my palm because I can't see my sight in the dark.

I'm happy as a man to hold hands with a beautiful girl, but I'm in trouble because I'm thrilled to actually try it.

Why don't you just get out in the light?

When I was desperately trying to understand how it was illuminating, I saw the light source, as Ferris said.

Then me and Ferris walk towards the light source.

Even the light from a slight light source is dazzling because you were accustomed to the dark.

As he continued to walk with his eyes narrowed to the glare, he went out to a place where there was a great deal of space.

Everything like floors, walls and ceilings are made of wood. She has a beautiful skin tone, as if she had thinly scraped the skin of a tree and peeked at it.

The ceiling is high and seems likely to be over thirty meters. I looked up and saw the luminescent stone embedded.

Apparently, they're implanting luminescent stones that emit light. That's how we secure the light source.

There is one door behind each room and one door to the left and right, which can be said to be such a large hall, but there is a concern before it.

A knight in the middle of the great hall kneeling like Fuku.

He holds a sharp, pointed lance on his right hand and is equipped with a large round shield on his left.

I don't care what you think about the human form, it looks like a human being is equipped with a knight, but I know that he is not human because he has no skin part at all and he is all gray.

That would not be a wise man living in this great tree. Number one, he lived hundreds of years ago. You can't be alive.

"What is it? He wasn't around, was he?

Yak, who lived here, also tilts his neck because he doesn't know the existence of a knight.

I have a bad feeling.

He enters the great tree, and when he enters the first room, there sits a knight with a lance in the center.

… It only looks like a gatekeeper to get rid of intruders, no matter what you think.

"You're not a person, are you? I can't feel my breath."

Ferris puts the color of vigilance in his eyes in front of a rare knight.

Is that knight a demon? I don't even know that.

I don't know, but it would move closer to any door than sitting in the middle.

"Anyway, we don't know what's gonna happen, so let's keep our weapons."

I pull my sword out of my hips and Ferris sets up a bow.

Then he approaches the knight as he observes the area.

'Totally. There's a guy who doesn't know what it means when he comes back to his residence for the first time in a while. What's going on? Hey, me, I'm gonna complain to him!

Yak said something stupid and ran out because we were on guard.

"Hey, Yak!?

"Ah, already! I'm coming, Ferris."

Speaking to Ferris, I rush after Yak.

"Hey! You! What are you doing coming into people's homes on your own? Whose permission are you sitting here with!

At that moment when Yak yelled in front of the knight, the knight moved out with his eyes glowing red.
