V3C7

Translated by Mlzkzr Edited by Mlzkzr

I, when I saw the donkey in front of me, got very confused.

……No, no matter how I look at it, it’s just a donkey, right?

I, don’t really understand why Ossan was so negative at it.

Aside from me who’s twisting my neck, Ossan goes into the cage.

If he’s scared, then he shouldn’t get close to it, but he approached the donkey while trembling.

And then, I have witnessed it.

“Are you sure? I can’t recommend this guy at all!”

“O,ossaaaaaaaaaaaan!”

———— The moment when the donkey’s legs dig into the Ossan’s face ……!

“Ho,how is that…… Fe,ferocious…… ri…..ght……?”

“Yeah, it was surprising”

It was seriously surprising. Thanks to the cheat skill, Mind’s eye, I was able to confirm the appearance of it clearly sinking into his face.

Thanks to the Ossan himself for demonstrating it to me, I painfully understand that this donkey was ferocious. It’s not me that suffered the pain, it’s the Ossan, though.

When he saw me nodding with a serious face, the Ossan gave a thumbs-up, with all his might as it was.

I don’t know if he’s waiting for a quip something or the other, but I’ll let this through to Ossan. It’s tiresome.

When I think of such a thing, an inorganic voice echoes in my head.

『Activating 【All Language Comprehension】 skill ———— successful. You can now understand the language of Donkeys』

No, I’m already good. Seriously, I don’t want to understand the words of donkeys.

With my feelings also becoming empty, I can now understand the donkey’s words normally.

『Fuhn. Only those I approve, can touch me. 』

What is this guy saying despite being a donkey.

And its voice, was that of a dignified woman.

When I was quipping in my heart about the donkey’s words, the donkey notices my presence.

『Mu? Who are you, you bastard!』

“Eh!? I,I’m Seiichi!”

Oy, me! Why are you answering seriously!? The other party is a donkey!? For the Ossan who doesn’t understand the donkey’s words, I look like a painful guy who suddenly started doing self-introduction by himself, you know!?

I was suddenly talked to, and I who replied so to her, timidly looked at the Ossan.

“Hehe. I can see a flower bed……”

Ah, he seems to be okay. It may be too late for him though .

When I turned my eyes to the donkey again, the donkey changed from the previous, and spoke normally to me.

『Seiichi huh. Alright, Seiichi. Come inside the cage for a moment. 』

“Eeh!?”

『It’s fine, so be hurry! Otherwise, I’ll kick this cage down and kick you! 』

“This donkey, is dangerous!?”

Further than this …… I am looking for a friendly horse.

This is already, I might have no choice but to spend my time here without buying a horse.

Even though I think about such a thing, if I don’t enter the cage as it is, it seemed like she would come out even if she seriously kicked the cage, so I went into the cage quietly.

“Look, I enter the cage properly ————”

『It’s punishment!』

“Why!?”

The moment I entered the cage, the donkey came to kick me at a tremendous speed.

As I twist my body and dodge the attack, the donkey hatefully mutters.

『……That can’t be done by something like a human』

“Being a donkey, what are you saying……”

『But, your head seems to be weak! Since you simply broke into my territory!』

“You told me to come in, so that’s why I came in, you know!?”

What is this donkey. Very unreasonable.

As I stared at the donkey with half-open eyes, the donkey approached to kick me again.

『Yes, no questions asked! You bastard should sink with my kick! 』

Its sharp kick, which is flying towards my face, was what I verify with my Mind’s eye. I mean, the questions and answers, were all one-sided since some time ago, right?

However, that’s …… if I avoid it, it will definitely come to kick me many times ……

It was the same with Saria, why are there so many muscle brains around me? This donkey doesn’t look like a monster, though. I can understand its language, but I can’t have a discussion with it.

This donkey also, understands my power, so I guess I have no choice but to shut up?

Well, at the time with Saria, I was one-sidedly attacked as well, though.

While I was thinking about this and that, the donkey’s kick was approaching in front of me, so I grabbed its leg for the time being, and lifted it as it was. Oh, as expected of my monster status! The donkey is light.

『Nah!? Le,let go of me!』

“Why?”

『Since I can’t kick you!』

“Alright, I absolutely won’t set you free”

When I grasped the donkey’s hind legs, and lifted as it was, I suspended the donkey in the air.

Even in such a state, the donkey tried to attack me with a single blow, and went on a rampage.

For a while, the donkey which was suspended in the air was struggling, but eventually, perhaps it realized that it wouldn’t be able to hit me at all, it soon became docile.

Then, the donkey muttered in a weak voice.

『I, I surrender…… that’s why, please take me down …… 』

“OK”

When I gently lowered the donkey to the ground, the donkey stood up, and it approached me.

As I tilted my head towards the donkey’s actions, suddenly, it hung its head in front of me.

…… what’s the meaning of this?

『I was able to fully experience your* power. Please forgive me for my impoliteness so far. 』 (TN: The original context here is ‘anata-sama’, which was a very polite way of saying ‘you’ in japanese)

“……Say what?”

You? Eh, what are you talking about?

Suddenly, towards the donkey with a completely different attitude than before, I became confused. Yup, what’s the significance of the confusion resistance!

To me who couldn’t understand the situation, the donkey continues.

『I, since I was born, have been taught by my mother…… “You must not be touched by anyone, other than the one you recognized. And if an individual that you approve appears, serve that person.” like that…… As my mother told me, I have never let anyone touched me other than the one I acknowledge. 』

“Mother!”

Just a minute, donkey’s mom!? It’s not something you teach a donkey!? …… A’re?

Donkey’s mother is also a donkey, right? My head is becoming entangled.

I already don’t understand the development that slightly exceeds the processing speed of my brain. What is a donkey?

『It’s also important that you are stronger than me, but more than that, I am happy that even if I was a donkey, you treated me on an equal footing. 』

Yeah, whether I treated you equally or not, I think it’s because I understand the Donkey’s words, so in this way, we can communicate……

Well, if we can communicate like this, then I can’t treat it as a normal animal.

In a lot of sense, it’s the same as humans.

Even animals have wills and feelings.

This All-language comprehension skill made me realize it. Treasure chest, the things you left behind, were very great and important.

It was strange that I killed him, but I sent a salute to the treasure box in my heart.

As I think about such a thing, the donkey came to a conclusion.

『In line with this, I want you, to become my Lord. I’m an inexperienced individual, but please take care of me. 』

“Aren’t you leaping in all sorts of ways!?”

No way, it was a decided-matter!?

No, its outward appearance is just like a donkey, but that’s particularly fine!

In the first place, it doesn’t have to be a proper horse, and on this occasion, why don’t I use this donkey?

For the time being, leaving aside the story of being its Lord and so on, I decided to buy this donkey.

“I get it. In the first place, I’m not fixated on horses. You’re fine ”

『Milord. I have the name 【Rurune】, so please call me that in the future. 』

“Saria was the same as well, but why are you animals have a beautiful girl-like names!?”

Is it popular? Is it popular, to give beautiful girl-like names towards the animals!?

…… No, this way of thinking is only for humans, so I wonder if there’s a habit of naming in the animal society, too.

In other words, even if you keep a dog and the owner names it Pochi, its real name may be Watson. ……I don’t like, that.

While lightly being weary of such a thing, I tell Ossan that I would buy Rurune.

“Ossan, I, am going to buy this donkey.”

“Fuhehe. It’s fish-san!”

What should I do, he’s not sane at all……!

When I was drawing back to the already crippled Ossan, Rurune quietly approaches him.

『Don’t delay my Lord, you pig!』

“Nugoh!?”

When the Ossan, was kicked again by Rurune, he crashed into the wall as it was.

And then——,

“Hah!? Whe,where am I!?”

“Ah, you finally got sane.”

When I told Ossan, who had returned to his senses, that I’ll buy the donkey, the Ossan opened his eyes and was surprised.

“O,oy. Are you really sure? This guy, doesn’t listen at all, you know?”

“It’s fine. Look”

『Milord’s hand, feels good』

When I stroked Rurune’s neck, Rurune looked comfortable, and rubbed her body against me.

Seeing that, Ossan became even more surprised.

“This guy was appalling…… you’re seriously going to take care of that tomboyish guy ……!”

“Hahaha….. so, how much is it?”

When I asked for its price, since it has no sign of selling at all, it was a cheap 10 silver coins.

As I was surprised by the low price, Ossan continues.

“It wasn’t quite popular, but you’re the first one that this guy recognized. I’ll give you a set of harnesses for free as a service.”

“Really!?”

I’m not having trouble with money, but I’d be very grateful if I could get it for free.

When he saw me rejoicing and nodding with satisfaction, Ossan withdrew to the back of the store and brought the harness.

“Alright, then I’ll attach the harness…… buheruba !?”

“O,ossaaaaaaaaaaan!”

Ossan, tried to put a harness on Rurune, but he was kicked again.

『The only one who can touch me, is Milord』

This child’s loyalty is scary.

I just grabbed its leg, and incapacitated it.

Because of such an incident, while having the Ossan give me lecture, I put the harness on Rurune myself.

After all of that, I pay Ossan 10 silver coins.

“Thank you for your patronage! If there are other monsters you want, you can come anytime! I will also do the maintenance of the harness if necessary! Well, I’ll take your money.”

“I understand. Err……”

“Oops, speaking of which, I didn’t name myself. My name is Barzas. Barzas Arua. Nice to meet you!”

“I’m Seiichi. Then, if I’ll encounter any problems, I’ll request you at that time”

“Oh!”

Ossan sees me off with a nice smile ———— parting ways with Barzas, I started walking around the city with Rurune.
