Chapter 88.

t

When we reached the nursery, my sister, Saria, and Rosetta’s sister, Rose, quickly ran up to us .

The godkin of the Dog God, the large silver dog, RunRun, followed behind them .

「Saria, good morning」

「Anicha! Welcome back! Good morning!」

I picked up Saria .

「Eheheー」

Saria rubbed her head on my chest .

Saria’s hair smelled good .

I tenderly brushed Saria’s chestnut hair .

After that, I pet RunRun’s fluffy body .

「RunRun, thank you」

「wau」

RunRun slowly wagged his tail .

「Anicha! Who is that?」

「This is Rubeum and Fay」

「Ruu-chan, Fay-chan, Saria is Saria!」

「I am Fay . Nice to meet you… What a cute child!」

「Kyururuー nice to meet you」

Rubeum tenderly patted Saria’s head and licked her cheek .

「Ruu-chan, it’s ticklishー」

While saying so, Saria giggled happily .

「Thank you, Rubeum」

When an intelligent dragon licks the face, it is the sign of friendship .

Rubeum recognized Saria as a friend .

Then, I introduced Rubeum and Fay to Rose . After that, we headed to the cafeteria .

The cafeteria of the Academy of Heroes is open all year round so it is very helpful .

At the cafeteria, I laid out the breakfast for Saria and the god-beasts .

「What does Fay eat?」

「Same as humans」

「I see, well, I’ll prepare the same as us」

「Ok!」

Besides Rosetta and Rose, Arti and Tina were also present in the cafeteria .

Thereupon, all of us ate breakfast together .

RunRun, Shiro and Fluffy were eating their food from plates on the floor .

Rubeum and Fay are small, so I put them on the table to let them eat .

「BeeebuBeeee」

Shiro was vigorously drinking his milk as usual .

「Shiro, drink a little slowly」

The rest of the god-beasts have excellent table manners .

Rubeum quietly eats meat and boiled eggs .

「Ai, Fay-chan, say “aah”」

「Thank you, but I can eat on my own…」

「This is also delicious, say “aah”」

「T-Thank you」

Saria sat Fay beside her plate, and was happily feeding her .

Since Fay was smaller than Saria, perhaps Saria thought of Fay as a little sister .

「Saria, eat yours first」

「Ai! But Fay-chan…」

「It’s alright, I’ll look after Fay」

「Ai」

Saria starts eating her breakfast .

And in between bites, she feeds Fay .

To finish the meal today seems to take twice as long as it usually does .

Looking at them, Rubeum came near my plate .

「KyuruKyuru」

While crying out, he opened his mouth wide . As though a chick .

He is firmly requesting me to feed him .

「Can’t be helped I guessー」

I fed some of my breakfast to Rubeum .

As his mouth was wide open, I inserted a small piece of meat .

「Looks just like a chick」

Rosetta smiled while looking at me and Rubeum .

「Yes, so cute… Can I feed Rubeum too?」

Tina asked .

「I want to feed him too」

「Me too, me too」

Arti and Rosetta also followed suite .

「Saria too!」

「Rose will feed too!」

The little girls also want to feed Rubeum it seems .

It’s only natural as Rubeum was cute .

「In turns please, kyuruー」

Rubeum proudly flapped his wings .

And he was greatly delighted as everyone fed him in order .

I looked over at Rubeum while eating my breakfast .

He was eating too much .

「Rubeum, you’re eating quite a lot . Won’t you spoil your stomach?」

「Still growing up」

As such he said .

The food Rubeum was eating would definitely add up to more than his own size .

After going at it for a while, it seems he has become quite heavy .

「You became heavier」

「Obviously」

「I see」

While looking at Rubeum and the divine spirit, Fay, I think .

Fay was also fed a considerable amount by Saria .

Although Rubeum is a god-beast, he is also a dragon . As expected, he would have a normal diet .

It is also the same for Shiro, Fluffy and RunRun .

However, Fay is a divine spirit; something akin to the god-beast of spirits .

Spirits don’t eat all that much .

「Fay… are you hungry?」

「Hungryー」

「Is it possible that you can starve to death?」

「Don’t know」

Tina, who was listening in, said .

「Fay-chan is a spirit, so she wouldn’t starve even if she doesn’t eat」

「That’s right I guess . Perhaps she can transform food into magic or so…」

Perhaps Fay wouldn’t need to eat if I supply magic .

「I don’t understand, but food is delicious」

「I understand you… food is delicious」

I understand Fay’s feeling of wanting to eat food even if there isn’t a need for it .

I should let her eat meals together with us whenever possible .

「Kyururu, I am full」

It seems that Rubeum is finally full .
