Chapter 279: 279
The next morning, the rain on this day was even stronger than it had been yesterday. This would also be a hard time going for water.
So I decided to give up water pumping.
“You were right to go while you were there yesterday.”
Sitting in the living room, I was alone. Wouldn’t this condition accumulate a good amount of water in the storage tank? That way, whatever you drink, you can bribe the water you get to work with.
There’s a noise coming off the hallway. Someone must have woken up.
“That, Parent, good morning”
“Rike. Good morning.”
“It’s unusual for my parents to be home at this hour.”
“I’m not going to get water today. So.”
“Oh, I see”
Like looked out the window chillily and nodded. The rain sounds would have made an approximate guess, but it’s hard to feel until you look at it this way.
I’ll look out the window, too. Not enough to call it “heavy rain” in the previous world, but it’s falling to the point where I think “it’s raining hard today”.
“Well, don’t come to the cabin for a second.”
“Take care”
When I told Liquette that, I cut the amount of dried meat I had for Lucy and the others to eat today and stuck it in my back sac. Also keep some towels, a water bag filled with water, and two deep wooden dishes in a wooden plate.
Finally, wear a thick cloth from your head. I wouldn’t rely on it as a replacement for Poncho, but it would be better than none.
Walk in the rain towards the cabin. My feet are soaking up because of the rain that kept falling and it’s a little unstable. Is the soil in this forest hard because it dries out of this state? I’ll have to check around there again.I walked solo so I wouldn’t get cocky, took nearly twice as long as I normally do (though not a big time because I said it was right there), and reached the cabin.
“Klulululululu”
Krull welcomes me to the cabin. Velour and flashy licked his face around.
“Okay, I’ll wipe your body first.”
Gently dampen one of the cloths I brought with the water in the water bag and wipe the body of the krull. The floor of the cabin had not been intruded directly by the water, thanks to the height on it, but it was snug with the rain that continued to fall. I’ll have to think with the crossing to the cabin by the start of next rainy season.
It will be dirty one way or the other, but it will still make Krull feel different than not doing it clean once a day.
After cleaning up the Krull, let’s see if we can get to Lucy.
“Wow…”
But I don’t know how big Lucy will get when she grows up. The motherly wolf was the size of a big dog, but the demonized Lucy was even bigger, and that’s not likely to be as big as a horse-sized kurl.
It’ll be hard to take you to the city when you’re that big.
Such a concern for my future, Lucy runs around the cabin with a clean body. Seeing that, he cut a chunk of dried meat apart and placed it on a wooden plate, adding the water from the water bag that was left in the wood dish.
“I’m sorry, but you need to stay quiet here today. This is what it looks like out there, so don’t get out.”
“Krull.”
“Wow!”
Krull and Lucy replied to my words. When I stroked their heads, I ran back to the house.
