The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee-Chapter 385 - Doby’s Hospitality
Chapter 385 – Doby’s Hospitality
There were many magic circles written inside the building.
I guessed that Vallimie had written them to increase the strength of the place.
「Those are some great circles, older sis!」
Vi-Vi said as she happily looked the over.
I then asked Doby,
「Is Vallimie inside there?」
「gyaa gyaa」
Doby nodded his head like crazy.
Timi petted him and said,
「Thank you, Doby.」
「gyaa gyaa」
He was still scared. He jumped when she touched him.
「I don’t know this building, though.」
「Is it a new one?」
「I think it is.」
「gyaaa」
I couldn’t tell what Doby meant from his reaction.
「Well, in my dragon form, I couldn’t fit in it…maybe Moofy in her gian form could.」
「Yeah, it is big.」
「It’s smaller than my sister’s castle, but bigger than Al’s house.」
「Way bigger.」
As we were talking it over,
「GAAAAAAAAAH」
We heard a loud howl. There was magic mixed into it.
Vi-Vi and Doby both jumped.
Timi looked confused.
「Is that Rai?」
「Sounds like it, but different.」
「I guess so…」
Femm’s tail was standing straight up, and Femm said,
『That’s a scared sounding cry.』
「It’s not Rai?」
『No, different. Never heard it before but it sounds scared.』
「It’s probably Lee.」Vi-Vi said.
「Lee’s Rai’s wife, right?」
「Yeah, it might be that she just had a child.」
「I see.」
Well, that’s how life is.
We did just hear that Lee was pregnant and almost ready to deliver.
I didn’t have any idea how long it took a magical dragon to give birth to a child, but it wouldn’t be strange if it was around now.
It might be that Vallimie made this place for them…
「I guess we shouldn’t get any closer to investigate.」
「Yeah, let’s just ask my older sister for the wood.」
「Sure. Let’s go.」
Animals defend their young with rage, so I didn’t want to get involved with Lee’s childbirth. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎
Especially a mother that just gave birth to an infant.
There was no reason for someone to bother an animal that had just given birth, even if it’s just a dog or a cat.
I mean, a human or devil like Vi-Vi, or Moofy wasn’t so bad, but we had a carnivore like Femm with us as well.
In addition, we had a massively powerful ancient dragon with us as well.
Lee might be frightened by that.
So we decided to retreat back into the building with the magic circles.
「When she calms down, I’m sure we can see the baby tiger.」
「Yeah.」
「ryaa ryaa」
Shiggy wanted to see it too. She flapped her wings happily.
So as we walked back,
「gyaa ggyaaa」
「What is it Doby?」
「gyaaa」
Dobby was asking us to go a certain way. He pulled at my arm.
We walked until we came to another building.
Seeing it, Vi-Vi said,
「This is Doby’s home.」
「I see…thanks for showing it to us.」
「gyaaa」
He opened the door and pointed inside. So we entered.
The place was made to house a great dragon like Doby. The inside was very large and had a bit of a strange smell.
It wasn’t really a smell that I liked or disliked, just different.
Femm, Moof, and Chel all relaxed.
Vi-Vi got off of Moofy’s back and kicked back as well.
「gyaaa」
Seeing that we had seated ourselves, Doby cleaned up a little.
Then, after looking for something, he got some raw meat and fruit and brought it to us.
「gya gyaaa」
「Is this for us?」
「gyaaa-aaa」
I guess it was. Seems like Doby was quite polite for a dragon.
「Thank you!」
And saying thanks we petted Doby.
「gyaagyaa」
Doby happily wagged his tail.
The beasts all split and consumed the meat.
Moofy, Timi, Vi-Vi and I ate the fruit.
They were apples and oranges.
「Fruit, even in the winter?」
「You can get them different times of the year here.」
「I see…」
I guessed that with all the magic that Vallimie used, she probably had some magic orchards as well.
Timi peeled back an orange and ate it while petting Doby.
「This is good, Doby.」
「gyaa gyaaa」
Even now, when Timi touched Doby, he tensed up a bit.
He didn’t jump or shiver at being touched though.
I guess he was getting used to Timi.
「ryaaa」
Shiggy finished eating and flew up and on top of Doby’s head.
Then she started to pet Doby’s head.
「Shiggy’s saying her thanks.」
「gyaa gyaa」
Doby happily wagged his tail.
Then Timi reached up and gave Shiggy a piece of orange.
Shiggy happily ate it.
Just then, the door to Doby’s place opened,
「Ah, is this where you all were?!」
Vallimie came into Doby’s house.
We were all thankful for Doby’s hospitality.
