Garudeina Oukoku Koukoku Ki – Book 2 – Chapter 12

 

Like a warm, sunny place

They’re times that are just heartwarming.

It is now two weeks later after the big event.

「Thanks for today, Georg-sama!!」

「Ah!? Rishe is unfair!!You were doing it two days ago, too!!」

「Hehe, first come, first served~ Right? Georg-sama? 」

「Well, if you do it in moderation. I don’t mind a quarrel. You usually get along pretty well, right? 」

Just now, to describe the situation George is currently in: The Wolfman-race girl Rishe had a smile on her whole face, because the comb was presented to her. The Rabbitman-race girl protests against it, while other beast people were throwing lukewarm glances in their direction.

On that day, a house was given to the beast people, and after eating a meal, were resting slowly. From tomorrow until Sunday he planned to teach them their first characters in school. Because they aren’t able to make paper yet, he keeps spreading warm sand in a wooden square frame and let them write in it (George is using earth and wind magic to draw in the air. Moreover, it’s carved in big letters at the back of the cla.s.sroom).

When he tried to make j.a.panese Paper out of wood that looked like a banana he failed. In addition he tried various ways to produce chalk. Because there existed lime in the lake, he tried to grind several kinds of sh.e.l.ls into powder and mixed them with water, but he had a hard time making something that was like glue.

This can be left to future generations, but when thinking about it, it’s quite difficult.

For him, who was a student, within their circ.u.mstances they seem happy to be able to learn and study. He is devoted to this every day and is working hard. As a result, they remember the characters faster than expected. One elf girls is even able to use addition on numbers they already learned.

<Learning is fun, isn’t it? But for me it was only a pain in the a.s.s. No? I think when I entered elementary school I thought it was fun too.>

He thought such a thing. When he left they even try to use fire at night to study independently, but he banned it strictly (They light the fire by using an iron plate and a firestone to create sparks and ignite dry leaves. They were even better at it, than Georg.)He had yet taught only one person about mathematics using Arabic numerals. In this world it is still mainstream to use characters (letters) to calculate, but it is troublesome to read and write calculations when the digits increases.

However, for Georg who wants a healthy regular life studying is not something enjoyable.

In order to teach some exercise to improve physical fitness he made a ball out of ivy, created simple goal posts and a sport field. And now Football is THE s.h.i.t among the boys. They even struggle to get the ball faster in their lunch breaks (Needless to say, he increased the production).Though they now the rules only roughly and if there is time to learn a complicated rule he wanted them to learn letters instead. Because of this he only told them the simple part of the rules.

Speaking of the girls, he intended to teach them swimming, but gave up because they had no swimsuits (it was a little regrettable). He taught them to make cat’s cradle out of ivy, such as flower crowns. Georg himself joined them with pleasure. After that he noticed that the splendid tails of the Wolfman-race and the Rabbitman-race had poor looking hair and began to make combs out of wood. At first Georg taught them how to use the combs (It was his first mofuru (fluffy) feeling that he dreamed of!!) and after that taught them to make combs on their own. Afterwards of course, I didn’t talk about tails, but distributed hair products to everyone.

Anyhow, a lot of the wolf- and Rabbitman-race preferred that Georg combed their tails completely. Thus, now every time Georg finds a minute to rest, they come to ask him to do it.

「Rishe, this way.」

「Yes!」

As Georg asked, Rishe sat down in front of him and put her splendid tail on Georg’s foot.

「Thank you very much!」

「Hmm, I ask you about it later.」

As he said that, he combed carefully, while Rishe gradually becomes weaker. In the end she is using his arm while lying on the ground as a pillow. It happens to Georg regardless if it’s a man or a woman. It’s the usual thing when Georg does this.

Even though he doesn’t understand the reason, the persons themselves said that it gave them a sense security. It’s fine.

Probably instinctively when they stay at the side of an overwhelming strong man their tension and sense of danger is lowered. Georg calls it his pet theory (Fortunately, because of the mofufu (fluffy) feeling every day, Georg’s mental health is also in a wonderful state.)

While Georg combs Rishe’s tail with high spirits and a smile on his face, Rishe is completely relieved and entrusts herself to him. It looks a lot like a child defended by its parents. And for him who is separated from his parents and siblings, they are enough for him to hold a feeling of longing. Recently even elves and dwarves, who are not beast people, but have long hair asked him to comb their hair. And then, because of Georg’s character who would never refuse such an offer if he was free, the gap between these two (Rishe and Georg) almost disappeared in these two weeks.

He believed that an ideal family is exactly somewhat where the relations never make anyone unhappy.

「As for me, I wish I had such a tail…………」

Muttered Ferris of the tiger tribe slightly frustrated. He’ll firmly comb her hair at night.  And this is a normal day in this town.
