I Can Speak with Animals and Demons Chapter 19.1

I took Smokey, the dog I met on the way with me to the west section to get to Kangkichi ranch .

Smokey, was embarra.s.sed to see my warm eyes and smile whilst we were walking .

It became even worse once I started c.r.a.p talking with this dog . Smokey keeps on saying “Yo, don’t ignore me”, but he should be able to understand .

If I ignore him, he would get in my way and bite my feet .

That’s why I was exhausted after arriving at the ranch .

I was so tired of everything . Smoky is noisy, so when I tell him to shut up, kids point to me, “That boy, he’s talking to the dog” .

『What happened to you Jed? Did you give up already? Don’t be lazy . 』

I want to bury this guy underground .

In front of me, smokey cheerfully walks down the street wagging his tail .

The last time I walked with Julia, we went by the easy section and saw pigs . They live in the eastern section so I didn’t see any this time .

Don’t worry about it .

When I arrived at the ranch, Nina and the horses weren’t near the fence like last time .

Are they at the stables or far away?

In order to meet up with Kankichi, it would be better to ask for permission from Nina or someone, so for the time being I walked towards the stable that I could see from here .

As I approached the stable walking next to the fence, I heard a strange loud voice .

Maybe a female cry . However, it can be understood from the loudness that it is not Nina’s voice .

It sounds like that, but it’s probably different .

“What could this voice be…… . ”

『I don’t know . Let’s go anyway . 』

Driven by curiosity, Smoky and I approach the hut .

However, I felt lost after approaching the first voice .

『W-wait, wait a minute! You must be kidding!? I’m a female!? Despite that, you forcibly put your hand in the hole! It’s a man! Please at least make it be a woman like Nina!』

Looking inside though the door, a female horse is held in place by men and tools to prevent it from running away . A man is wearing rubber gloves coated in lubricant .

“No way . ”

『Will you do it!? It’s too much?』

『Hey impossible impossible! Oi, where are you touching! I’ll kick you away!』

“Bear with it please . ”

『You’re not touching my b.u.t.t casually! I’ll remember your face . 』

“Is everyone ok?”

“We should be fine . ”

“Hurry up . This horse is messing with me . ”

“Watch out! It may be violent . ”

『Oh, really stop it . I give up . So forgive me . Please – Oh Oh Aaaa ……』

I heard a scream that made me want to close my ears .

However, Smokey watches without interest .

『Wow, amazing, the whole arm has went in . Anna does the same . 』

While the horse screams, Smokey cries out too .

I wanted to talk to the keeper, but I couldn’t think of a situation where I could do that, so I was looking away from the stable and staring at the fields .

Still, I can hear that voice, so I feel unconfortable .

After a while, it seems that it is over, and I can no longer hear that voice crying out .

Smokey called out to me saying “It’s done”, so I approached the scary hut .

There the horse is lying down, and the men are cleaning up .

『Haa… haa… haa… I got dirty!』

Is that a tragic and weak voice?

However, there is a horse approaching this horse .

『You’re not dirty . 』

『Ben!? … . But, I, I… . 』

『You don’t have to say anything, I love Steph!』

『Really? … . Is there such a person?』

『Of course, Steph . 』

『Thank you! Ben! I love you!』

The two horses rub their faces together to show their love .

“… . What is this horse?”

『… . Well, they’re happy, isn’t that good?』

As Smokey and I looked at each other, I noticed the male horse called Ben approach the keeper .

『A human with a pair of gloves . I often step on them . 』

“… Wha? What are you doing? You just got brushed, right?”

『Roar! My hind leg!』

“Eh? Ou . . ch!”

The keeper receives Ben’s hind kick, flies off and crashes into the wall .
