I Can Speak with Animals and Demons Chapter 28 Part2

Translator's note:

On the ninth day of christmas,
My translator gave to me,
Nine rugged scars,
Eight marriage proposals,
Seven fried eggs,
Six sweet carrots,
Five hours sermon,
Four useless scratches,
Three little goblins,
Two swords clas.h.i.+ng,
And a chapter of ICSWAAD!

『Is it a monster? Is it an animal?』

Kobolds are sensitive to smells because they are dogs.

I show up and they charge poorly.

“Oh… it's me.”

『You again! What the h.e.l.l do you want.』

『Putting away your weapon and talking with a human…. It's a strange sight.』

『Totally.』

Talking bluntly, the kobolds release their fighting posture by lowering their weapons.

In fact, this is thanks to b.u.mping into these guys many times.

At first, they would attack while glaring at me, but after several rounds of communication, we stopped fighting.

This is a natural response as there are many monsters and ferocious beasts living by the survival of the fittest rule here.

In fact, I still haven't earned the kobold's trust.

When they meet an enemy, it is natural to fight to decide life and death. There is no reason.

These guys are still in a better category.

From this, you can see how friendly the goblins were.

But, that might have been due to low intelligence.

These guys are getting bigger recently…

Their strength is getting stronger and their head is getting better.

Does this mean I really became a goblin king?

“Are there many creatures today?”

『Umm, yeah. We've been walking since morning but we still haven't found anything.』

『You're the first thing we meet today.』

“Ah, that's bad.”

『Usually, you're prey too.』

“Kill me?”

“Whoa? Are they here to destroy the peace treaty?”

I ready my sword, but the kobolds shake their head.

『No way, we know you're not an enemy.』

『If you release magic, we can't get you.』

“Yes. That's good.”

There was tension in the air for a moment, but it quickly fades away.

And the moment I sigh in relief.

『Ugaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!』

A beast roar not far from us.

At the same time, I hear a smas.h.i.+ng sound of impact and a cloud of dust rises.

From the position of the dust, I can guess it's whereabouts.

It was an angry cry that I had never heard before.

『Hey, isn't there a monster?』

『So that's why the forest was quiet today.』

“Is the monster rampaging?”

As we talk, the impact sound continues to resonate.

A sound that gradually increases.

That's a sign of it approaching us.

『Hey, crazy. I'm here.』

『The guys who raise their voice and rampage are not cunning.』

The kobolds and others are running away.

What will I do?

However, if left as it is, it may eventually come to my nearby forest.

It's best to have the other mosters defeat it halfway, but I can't expect that when I see how silent the forest has become.

Shall I try communication first and then running away if I can't?

The moment I decide, the tree in front of me snaps and falls down.

Through the cloud of dust, a b.l.o.o.d.y ogre emerges.

A horn is broken in half and it's face has a number of cuts.

There are many cuts on it's body, painful scars that have yet to heal. There are also blood splatters that are obviously not it's own. It probably went through many intense battles.

And when the ogre's line of sight reaches me, it opens it's bloodshot eyes wide.

And starts with these words.

『Human! I'll kill you!』

A giant fist is released that starts to cast shade on me.

Oh, I don't think this will be a dialogue.
