Episode 28

 

Because that song was the lyrics that the owner of 【Bird Cafeteria】 used to hum all the time.

 

The bird that the owner loved would often sing along to that song too.

 

When this song was sung, the bird would easily calm down without making a fuss about new people.

 

I stared at her intently and smiled with round eyes.

 

“I was really good with birds on the street too. Birds liked this song, do you happen to know it too, Sister?”

 

“….”

 

Her eyes wavered.

 

“I really love birds. So I really want to meet them, wouldn’t that be okay?”

 

“Ah….”

 

Just as silence continued.

 

Ruth slowly opened her mouth.

 

“…Well, our Little One here. She even tamed a tiger, didn’t you? Ahem. Well, I’m not exactly bragging or anything.”

 

Ruth! You’re suddenly being helpful!

 

“That’s right! I’ll show you by taming the birds! I have my own secret method!”

 

I sparkled my eyes and clenched my fists tightly.

 

Then Server made a confused expression.

 

She looked like she was wondering if it was okay since I seemed to be a noble….

 

“Even if I get hurt, I absolutely won’t say anything! I can even write a contract!”

 

“That’s….”

 

When Server hesitated, Ruth’s expression became more menacing than usual.

 

I thought she might threaten her.

 

“Could you help us out a bit? I’ll compensate you with money.”

 

She pulled out a hefty gold coin pouch from her pocket. It looked like it contained at least ten million gold.

 

‘Wow, Ruth is rich!’

 

Server Sister’s eyes flashed brightly.

 

“Yes. Th-then just 5 minutes only. The birds are quite fierce!”

 

* * *

 

I quickly climbed up to the small room on the second floor by myself.

 

I barely managed to leave Ruth behind, who wanted to come with me, saying I had to see them alone.

 

‘Exactly 5 minutes! I’ll solve everything within that time!’

 

Looking at how Ruth kept fidgeting her feet, she would definitely follow me after 5 minutes!

 

I could see the perch right at the opposite window on the second floor.

 

More than ten birds were sitting on the perch, but….

 

‘There it is! Blue Bird! My friend from my street days!’

 

Of course, right now I couldn’t reveal my past name with my own mouth first.

 

It’s a shame I can’t openly reveal that ‘I was actually your friend!’ though.

 

I looked at the unusual bird with blue feathers and pure white spots on its wings.

 

“Hello, bird. Nice to meet you!”

 

At that moment.

 

The bird fell from the perch with a thud, then flew up vigorously again.

 

“…What, what? Who are you? What are you, speaking Bird Language when you’re just a human?”

 

“Hehe. I learned Bird Language!”

 

“What the… You’re an incredibly unusual human. Just a young human I’ve never seen before.”

 

The bird’s wing flapping subsided for a moment.

 

As soon as I saw interest spark in the bird’s eyes, I spoke quietly.

 

“Do you know the Wild Dog Pack leader Choglas de Cordia III, or ‘Choco’ for short?”

 

The bird pecked at my arm with its beak while chirping.

 

“Choco? Of course I know him. He’s my second friend.”

 

“Actually, I know Choco too.”

 

“What?”

 

“So you know, could you do me just one favor?”

 

I smiled brightly and reached out my hand to stroke the bird’s feathers.

 

But right then.

 

The bird’s eyes flashed and gleamed.

 

Several birds that had been sitting on distant perches all flew up at once.

 

All kinds of birds came flying to restrain me.

 

“Ahhh!”

 

In an instant, my vision was blocked by bird wings.

 

Just before my eyes were covered, what I saw was a bird holding rope in its mouth, tightly binding my wrists.

 

“Why, why are you tying me up!”

 

“Stop talking nonsense. Choco is dead! And, and we hate most humans. Choco hated humans so much too!”

 

“No, wahhh…”

 

What kind of bird is this violent!

 

“So there’s no way he would have befriended a human he barely knew! Now, everyone prepare for Aimed Shot.”

 

At those words, all the birds gathered around me.

 

Th, they really don’t trust me.

 

But it wasn’t incomprehensible.

 

Even my sister doesn’t recognize me, so how would a bird I briefly met during my wild dog days recognize me?

 

And back then, even my name was different from now.

 

“It’s true! I brought something! Look at my pouch!”

 

“…Pouch?”

 

I nodded toward the bird that fluttered over to my pouch.

 

“Look at this! It’s the Round Snake Doll that Choco only gives to close friends!”

 

My secret weapon!

 

The Snake Model Doll I secretly brought when carrying out the ‘Servant Girl Repelling Operation’ at my sister’s mansion.

 

I had received it back when I was a stray dog. When Sister adopted me, I brought it with me and hid it in the passage of the annex.

 

‘I’m so glad it’s still here!’

 

Chirpy opened his beak wide when he saw the doll.

 

“Huh, how do you have that? That’s something only Choco’s closest confidants can have.”

 

“Yeah! That’s right!”

 

“Huh…”

 

I whispered in a small voice so that only Chirpy, who was sitting near my shoulder, could hear.

 

“You know, I also know all your secrets?”

 

Since the bird was confused, I needed to drive the nail in now.

 

“You, acting cute by doing a butt dance in front of the humans who give you seeds.”

 

“…I, I never did that.”

 

“And when you were aiming bird poop at the soldiers’ heads in front of the barracks, you accidentally fell on top of the soldiers’ heads.”

 

“Choco, how dare this guy tell all my secrets to his human friend?”

 

“And you liked the red-headed eagle so you sang a confession song and almost got eaten, getting humiliated-”

 

“Eeeek! You, you, you who are you!”

 

“Hehe, if you do me a favor, I won’t tell anyone your secrets!”

 

“This is complete blackmail!”

 

“Blackmail is right!”

 

The bird that had been covering my eyes flapped its wings frantically and flew upward.

 

Finally, my vision was secured.

 

“…Phew, it’s hard to believe, but I have no choice. Just tell me what it is.”

 

“Do you know what object has ancient magic that can stop a shadow mage’s rampage?”

 

“Yeah. I know. A ring called 【Saint Philip’s Melody】.”

 

The bird said it casually, but this guy is definitely a genius!

 

“Wow, that’s it? Then do you also know where it is?”

 

I was convinced that was the object that could heal Grand Prince Rivera.

 

But they said even the human Information Guild members had trouble finding it.

 

‘But you know, birds are different.’

 

Because they can hear everything said during the day and at night.

 

They even found the location of bones that Road Wolves had hidden within 3 seconds.

 

‘They can find it somehow.’

 

The bird stared at my sparkling gaze, quietly closed its beak, then muttered.

 

“Yeah. I also know where it is.”

 

As expected!

 

I was about to cheer but carefully asked.

 

“Then, you know. Could you also get it?”

 

“I can get it. But that object is dangerous. What reason does a little kid like you have for needing that object?”

 

“I need it to save my friend.”

 

The bird’s eyes turned sharply toward me.

 

It seemed like it was trying to confirm whether my words were real or fake.

 

I stubbornly stared into the bird’s eyes as well.

 

‘I have something to believe in. Chirpy is a good kid. He’ll definitely help me.’

 

And then…

 

Finally, the bird’s beak opened majestically.

 

“No.”

 

…Huh?!

 

“I hate humans, you know. Get lost right now!”

 

SCREEEEECH!

 

A loud noise rang out.
