My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 784

They were pigeon-like creatures

Rahle had brought two of them.

The two small birds were flapping their wings on the ground. And as Liza said, they were shaking with fear as they looked at Leo.

Tilura was wondering if they were Rahle’s children…but I doubted it.

Besides, their feathers were gray, unlike Rahle. And their beaks were not sharp either.

They were smaller than Sherry. Small heads with round bodies… They looked like pigeons to me.

“Oh, Rahle has landed. We should just ask about them.”

“Yes. Rahle!”

“Kii!”

Rahle seemed very happy to see Tilura again.

It immediately spread out its wings and enveloped her.

“Wou…”

“Leo. You played with her a lot when Rahle was gone. Besides, it’s not like Tilura doesn’t like you anymore.”

“You have me, mama!”

“Wuff.”

Tilura and Rahle enjoyed their reunion for some time. And I petted Leo and waited… Though, I felt a little bad for the two pigeons, who were just staying there and quivering.

“Hmm. It seems like they are the children of a Cockatrice.”

I had asked Ms. Lyra to go and call Sebastian.

He took one look at them and muttered. So he knew after all.

“Cockatrices… Will you turn into stone?”

“You know about them, Mr. Takumi? Yes. Once they become adults, they will shoot off the red hairs on their heads. They are sharp like needles, and you will turn to stone if you are pierced by them. They do not have them now. But as they grow older, their feathers will change to white or brown, so you can tell if they are male or female.”

Like chickens?

But they really did look more like pigeons to me…

“That sounds kind of scary…”

“Well, petrification can be reversed with medicine. Also, it is just around the spot where the needle pierced you… About this much.”

Sebastian showed me that it was just a few centimeters.

“However, it will grow if you are pierced multiple times.”

“So it depends on the situation. In any case, it would be best to avoid being petrified to begin with.”

“Yes. By the way, you can make the medicine out of the herbs that you sent to Ractos. It is quite cheap. That is why people aren’t too scared of the Cockatrice.”

Those herbs were in the book that I had borrowed, and so I knew of their effects. But I didn’t know they could also be used to treat petrification.

“Did Rahle bring them as food?”

“Uh, I don’t know? We will just have to wait and ask about it.”

“Yes… But I have heard that grown Cockatrices are delicious. But they are difficult to catch…”

“Pii!?”

“Pii!”

While I didn’t think it was the case… I suppose it was possible that Rahle brought them back as a gift.

“Kii! Kii! Kii!”

“I see. So that’s why!”

“Tilura. What did Rahle say?”

“Umm…”

A moment later, Tilura was released from Rahle’s embrace, and was able to talk.

And so we were able to learn the reason.

The whole time, Leo was staring at the small birds… And while it was probably in order to monitor them, she did seem to be drooling a little. Perhaps it was because she heard Sebastian saying that they tasted good…
