I Can Speak with Animals and Demons - Chapter 20.2

Chapter 20.2

“By the way, Jed, how did you study recovery magic? You studied under a high ranking priest, right?”

“No, no, I’m self taught . ”

“Huh? Self study?”

“Yes . I read books . I asked my brother to explain the magic, but he can’t use light magic . ”

“…… Is that true? … No way… . and you gained skills only by studying…”

Onoki’s shoulders jolt upon hearing that . Is it a shocking thing?

“Awesome!”

“Huh?”

She suddenly gets closer and grabs my hand . She seems different from her prevoius calm state .

“Would you like to study recovery magic under me!? Yes, recovery wizards are precious . Most people who have knowledge belong to the temple and there are a few free rcovery wizards! As soon as I resigned as a priest, I lost my priesthood, but my granddaughter…”

Onoki is excited and blabbers on . I can’t keep up .

Please turn back to being the gentle old woman you were earlier .

“Onoki, please calm down for the time being . ”

“Oh, what am I doing . I should be talking about recovery magic . ”

“Wrong . ”

“Oh, let’s talk about it in my house . ”

Onoki picks me up and tries to take me somewhere .

“Hey? Wait a minute? I don’t want to be a healer!?”

Oh, this person has a strong grip . Are you really a priest? Are you like a fighting priest? No, because there are adventurers, figting priests would be a bit much .

“Hey, Onoki . It won’t do if you forcibly bring Jed . ”

It is Nina who stops the former priest from running away . It is really helpful . I was about to become Onoki’s child .

“Umm? I’m not going to do that . ”

“Jed doesn’t like it anyway . ”

Onoki looks at me after Nina speaks .

And I hurriedly nodded my head .

“… Is that so . I thought it would be a good stimulus for my granddaughter . ”

If you make an old woman depressed like that, you feel like you’ve done something wrong .

“W-well, if it’s just a peek this time . ”

“Are you sure? Come on over! My place is just on the other side . If you ask someone, you will find the way straight away . Oh, I have to get ready . ”

Dangerous . This old woman suddenly recovered . Onoki runs away in no time .

I wish I had stopped . That person is a person who loves recovery magic .

“Are you sure?”

“I regret it a little . But once I’ve been, it will settle down gradually . ”

That’s right . All I need to do is to listen to a lecture on recovery magic . It’s being done for me and I won’t lose anything by listening .

“Is that so?”

Nina asks in a doubtful voice . She puts a hat on and returns to the stables .

Well, I’ll forget about it once it is all over . I hope so .

『Hey, hey, Kankichi . Is there a pretty female here?』

『Oi, oi, there are horses here . No cute dogs . 』

『Okay . By the way Kankichi, what is your favorite food?』

As far as I can tell, Smokey gets along well with Kankichi .
