I Can Speak with Animals and Demons Chapter 35 Part1

–Bear.

It is of the largest species of polar bear that are between 2 and 5 meters tall and weigh between 300 and 800 kg. It has fur and a short tail, large but short limbs, a large body, and has a good sense of smell and hearing.

I heard this information in the news.

But the bear in front of me is clearly more than two times taller than me, three meters tall.

A strong presence. My back tenses up in fright at the thought of being hit by that big arm.

c.r.a.p, I should have listened to the news properly! How do you deal with this bear?

“…………”

We stare at each other without moving.

Then the bear mutters something.

『Yeah, you're a human, I've encountered a human. What is he doing with a sword or something on his waist, should I hit it? But what's happening? A human being. Oh, what should I do?』

The bear seems more confused than expected.

I'll probably be able to have a discussion.

He seems to have no need to pretend to be dead or run away.

『Oh, right, okay. If the opponent turns and shows his back, let's attack. I might be able to win. If he doesn't show his back, I'll see.』

I listen to the words and my chest relaxes.

… I wasn't really indimidated to the point of running away. I was about to be attacked by a bear.

Anyway, the bear seems to have calmed down, so I'll talk to him.

“Oh, bear? Can you speak?”

『Oops, don't approach me! If you get closer, my right straight will pop out, okay? I'll be really scared if you get closer than that…』

I stepped one step forward at the same time as it's words, it is intimidated.

Apparently this bear is cowardly.

“Ok, okay, I won't get any closer.”

『I understand! That's right… He's a good person I'm saved.』

“Well, I understand your words.”

『Yes?』

“……Hmm?”

Here the bear stops moving for a moment.

Well, I think this is a normal response.

The birds take this fact lightly and unexpectedly, but they can't beat it.

Well, the birds' reaction might be because they've heard the rumors.

『I'm a nice bear.』

“I'm a nice bear.”

『My name is Argyle.』

“My name is Argyle.”

His words used to check are returned like a parrot.

『What is your name?』

“My name is Jed.”

『Suh, yeah! I'm talking to a human! Hey, Honeybird there. Do you know Jed?』

Argyle, who's having a good conversation with me, shouts with excitement and asks Honey excitedly, who has stopped behind us.

Honey answers the bear Argyles' questions casually.

『Oh, that's right. He is the one who understands our words. He's the one in the rumors, but haven't you heard the rumors?』

『I did not know!』

That's the same for me. The rumors spread quickly via the birds.

Aren't the rumors spreading so much I won't be attacked wherever I go?

That way I can travel freely, it's wonderful.

For now, my goal is not to be attacked by monsters near Ether.

『Well, Jed? What did you come here for?』

Argyle walks away and talks with four legs.

That's when I pointed my finger at the tree.

“I'm here to pick golden nuts for a quest.”

『A quest, that means you must be an adventurer! I'm courageous even though I have an unreliable face.』

“That's a relief”

『Jed, don't be so sorry. Let's eat the golden nuts together!』

“Huh? Did you pick golden nuts?”

At the guild's counter, the staff members who are at the rgistering counter have a panicked voice.
