Chapter 22.2

The whole Asma village can be seen from the mountain . Fences and walls have been built in a large circle, that remind you once again that this village has grown so much .

Until a few years ago, there was only a few people and homes, and that made me feel lonely .

The power of people is amazing . We can get this far in only a few years .

『My goodness, is this the rumored Jed able to talk with animals?』

A gentle voice calls out to me whilst I’m admiring the scenery .

When I crane my neck towards the origin of the voice, I hear “I am here” directly above me .

When I look up, there is n owl perched on a tree .

“T-that’s right . ”

『So that’s it . The rumors seem true . It’s really interesting to be able to talk with a human . 』

“I suppose the rumors have spread to here . ”

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

『Yeah, so many birds were announcing it, so I think every animal here knows . 』

“… I-I see . ”

I found out why I keep getting called out like this . Where the birds flying here and there? It seems like you can talk to them even if you don’t go to see them .

『Still, the scenery here is beautiful . Until night, I relax, watch the scenery and sleep . 』

“I didn’t think that there was such a beautiful place . ”

『Surely Jed’s residence is that big mansion, right?』

“What? Do you mean there are rumours about my home?”

That is a problem . I want you to respect my privacy .

『No, no, it’s because I’ve seen you several times from here . 』

The owl slowly shakes its head .

“Eh!? But the mansion is quite far from here!”

Looking at the mansion for confirmation, I can only see the whole but not the interior . There should be some people working in the garden, but that’s it .

『Even if it doesn’t look like it, my eyes are very good . From here, I can see the kitchen through the first floor window . 』

“That’s a lie right!? You can see the kitchen from here?”

Wow! It’s not something like violation of privacy . You can’t see my room from here right? Yeah . There’s no way to see my room from here thanks to the structure of the mansion . There is no problem because my window is on the other side . You can see the hallway, but that’s fine .

『Well… . A maid is polis.h.i.+ng dishes in the kitchen . A woman with brown hair trimmed at her shoulders . 』

“Hmm, it’s confusing because there are many people with brown hair . ”

It’s easier to understand if they have a flashy hair colour like my mother or Julia .

『Oh, it seems she has dropped a light blue cup . 』

“It’s Noel . ”

It’s only Noel who can do such a blunder . By the way, when I was a baby, the maid who stepped on me was Noel . As always, she’s clumsy .

『It seems she has cut her finger . Poor thing . 』

Ah, I can picture Noel’s figure doing that . Let’s give her recovery magic when I return .

“That’s amazing . Can you see others?”

『That’s right . It seems a boy wearing gla.s.ses in the mansion is getting frustrated with rolls of paper . 』

“… Brother Gilion, you’re frustrated again . ”

I’m sometimes surprised by my brother Gilion making strange voices in his room . It’s usually a reaction he has when he fails to use magic language .

『Next is a boy holding a sword in one hand and a red-haired woman looking for something in the garden . 』

“That’s Gladys, and Julia or my mother . What are they looking for?”

I won’t think about it . My brother Gladys is just wielding a sword in the garden and my sister Julia is just at home .

『Are they looking for you Jed? It’s already getting quite late . 』

When I hear the owl speak and look at the sky, it’s true that dusk is not far .

Then sun will probably set by the time I get back .

Yeah, it would be bad if I don’t return . I’ve got to go home . They’ll be angry .

“… Maybe, so I’ll go home . ”

『Is that so . It wasn’t long, but it was fun talking with you . Shall I guide you back to the mansion?』

“Really? Please do!”

『No, let’s take a shortcut . It’s this way . 』

I follow the owl that flies away slowly and hurry back to the mansion .
