Chapter 4 – Nightmare….Reckless Idea

I woke up just as I was about to sink, buried in small amoebas.

The way I awaken is bad.

The one eye who came to wake me up was surprised.

…since I was a boy, whenever I was shocked by something, I would dream of it. I wonder if this can be cured…

「Good morning」

The one eye seemed to be shocked….what’s wrong?

It walked out of my room while shaking its little head looking a little lonely.

…what’s wrong with it?

The one eyes are perfectionist.

Was it shocked because I woke up before it woke me up?

….I wake up on my own at least a few times a year.

That one eye’s duty is waking me up.

Areh? Does that mean that it’s my fault?

….I’ll try my best to wake up before I get woken up again tomorrow…perhaps it will get used to it.

---Scene Change---

After eating, I left my house and went to Eco.

It was much warmer now.

I look around the field and see that the forest has changed a bit again.

….I wonder how long this would last. My heart faltered a little.

In front of Eco, I found Boss-san and Shuri’s eggs.

It was cute to see how hard the nanafushis were working to take care of them.

Today, I felt a bit of unusual magic from the eggs.

Will they hatch soon?

Come to think of it, Boss-san and Shuri bringing eggs to me means they are female, right?

….where’s the male?

No, there are some species where males are being taken care of….are they like that?

I looked around casually but there’s no way I could tell so I gave up.

I waited for a while but although I felt magic, no change occurred with the eggs.

As I stared at the white round balls, they reminded me of Japanese eggs.

I want to eat eggs.

I haven’t eaten eggs since I came to this world.

I have flour so if I have eggs too, I can make pancakes.

Honestly speaking, I love pancakes.

After remembering it, now I want to eat pancakes so bad.

Eggs….do I search for chickens?

In the forest?

I look at the square.

Big spiders, big ants, big wolves, big dogs, and big bird.

Karen seems to have come back home this morning.

However, does this mean that I need to look for big chickens?

Birds…I never found anyone else other than Karen.

Birds birds birds…..The winged lizard that attacked me before can fly. Is that the bird of this world?

Am I supposed to look for its eggs?

I feel like something’s wrong with my idea.

No, I wish I’m wrong.

Ah, should I just go out of the forest and look for it?

Yeah, that’s a good idea.

Hnn?

….there’s a good chance that the outside world is keeping chickens, right?

I need to buy some…ah, I can’t.

I don’t have this world’s money.

Maybe I can barter for it.

But with what?

I don’t have anything that’s worth money.

I have rocks and ores.

They are the only things I processed….I guess it’s impossible.

No, I think it is still feasible.

Well, let’s look around the forest first.

Or perhaps I could look for the beastkins in the forest….since I can’t speak with them, I’ll use pictures.

I wonder if they can understand my drawing.

I drew a dog before and even my family didn’t recognize it as a dog…

….I guess they won’t either.

I’m in a forest.

Let’s just look for big chickens.

….wait a minute, I feel like something’s wrong.
