I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

While I was desperately shaking my head, I moved the blade and cut off the horn .

At that moment, the ogre opens its eyes and droops .

It’s so quiet that I think I lost my mind .

Did you calm down for the time being?

『Ah …… u . 』

For the time being, there seems to be consciousness .

However, I don’t feel an angry aura .

It calmed down as if a large amount of cold water was thrown on a blazing fire .

『… Is it calm first?』

『Well, both horns are broken . It’ll be a little calm . 』

The Kobolds poke with a scissors and clubs to make sure .

“Hey, are you okay with that? Won’t it go rampant again?”

『Don’t worry . It couldn’t move even in a violent state, so it won’t move further with its horns broken . 』

Talking about that, Kobold crawls while saying, “What?”

On the other hand, Ogre keeps whispering in a groaning voice .

Please stop it . I feel sorry .

『… Please kill me . I’ve already lost . 』

Ogre whispering with a stubborn voice that cannot be imagined from it’s previous violent state .

What happened? This weird change is …

『My horns arebroken . I no longer have the power to fight . Please do it at once … 』

“… Do ogres lose their willpower, not only their strength, if you break all their horns?”

I turn to face the Kobolds while asking .

『No, I really don’t know that . 』

『We are not ogres . 』

Kobolds say things bluntly .

『… Horns are of utmost importance, and our pride for us . It is a source of power, and if it is lost, it is equal to powerlessness . 』

Anyway, it seems to be really important .

Since it lost it’s fighting spirit, it seems to have regained reason .

It is known that animals and monsters can be treated with light magic .

Onoki also said this, and sometimes uses it on animals that got injured by goblins .

Healing demons with light magic is abusive and apostate, but I don’t know that .

I am neither a priest nor a healer .

As expected, you can heal a demon in front of people, but it should never be done in front of temple personnel .

The ogre is quiet while I treat it and it doesn’t try to rampage .

It is surprised to be able to talk to me, a human .

『I ’m sorry to have you heal my injuries . I was trying to kill you …』

“I’m sorry for breaking this important horn . Otherwise you would have killed me . ”

『No, I should be grateful that my life was not taken . 』

“By the way, why were you rampaging here? You were full of injuries when I met you, one horn was broken . ”

『Oh, there was a terrible strong man yesterday . I managed to escape up to this point while being in tatters…』

A Kobold buts in and answers to the ogre .

『When you were running away in the forest, did you hear our voices this humans voice?』

『……Yes . I thought I was done for . 』

Indeed, I’m fine, but what about the ogre?

What kind of monster is it to make an ogre flee?

I will not go over there .

No, I’m okay because I’m not a monster .

“Is that person gone?”

『Yes, I can’t say for sure, but there is no sign of chasing . I don’t think it’ll bother to hunt a dying monster like me . 』

“I see . ”

Until the ogre settles down, why don’t we hide in the cave where the orcs and goblins live? I ask them if they want to .

It is peaceful over there, and if they give my name they won’t have to fight, they accept my suggestion, even though they are sorry .
