I Can Speak with Animals and Demons Chapter 20 Part2

“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.
