My Pet Human Got Kidnapped by a Wild Human - CH 46
After leaving the temple, Grieve took Slair to the orchard on the edge of the village. There was no fruit but full of tiny flowers on the trees. Not many people walking around the orchard also made it a good place for a little stroll.
「Slair… You don’t seem too happy.」 Grieve was confused and asked,「Are you not satisfied with good fertility luck?」
Slair’s eyelids twitched when he heard the phrase 「fertility luck」 and said: 「It… It just doesn’t sound natural. Unless you could marry with all the women on the continent and do… every day…」
Grieve laughed:「They are just the lucky phases priests use! However, there are many different phases they use. We picked out the best one, isn’t that a symbol of our luck?」
As he spoke, sadness came out of his voice:「When my father came here, and the priest told him that he would have ten powerful sons. 」
Slair stood on tiptoe, reaching for a leaf that had been blown up by the breeze from Grieve’s blond hair. He smiled,「So, the prophecy is not wrong… Though you are your father’s only son, you have the strength of that ten sons combined.」
Grieve blushed after being praised by Slair like this. He was thinking about how to respond. He felt the ground tremble slightly, and a hole appeared under Slair’s feet- then Slair fell. The mini phile bird resting on Slair’s shoulder, flapping its wings blankly, squeaked around the hole.
「Tell Alex and Rhett.」 Grieve tapped on the phile bird’s head and then jumped in. It was a deep hole, and it didn’t seem like a job human could accomplish. Judging how swiftly things happened, it must be a geo-type monster. But how could a geo-type monster suddenly show up in the village? Could it be Robert…Was he that powerful?
Grieve felt deeply worried that Slair’s magic had not recovered yet. The hole was not vertical, and Grieve stumbled a few times until he fell to the bottom. It was dark, and Grieve felt he stepped on something hard, then something made an anger 「Coo」sound, then a large lump of dirt mixed with stones fell on top of his head.
「What’s there?」 Grieve groped on the ground and soon came across a solid moving object. Its eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness like a pair of fireflies. Next, Grieve’s fingers were clamped hard by its pliers.
「Got you!」 Grieve held that thing with another hand and snapped its pincers. He felt the something in his hand felt like a crab with a thin tail behind its body, but the tail didn’t seem it could do much damage. He stood up carrying that screaming little thing and scratched its stomach. The poor thing was teased by him so that its eyes kept blinking, but it never succeeded in attacking again. With little light, Grieve moved forward slowly.

「Gee-GeeeeGeeGeeGee!」 Phile bird poked at Choco, then stood on its head and pointed at the two dragon’s bedroom. After a while, the noise finally stopped in the room. Alex opened the door with the mess of clothes.
『 What’s wrong?』
「Ge-GeGeGeGe-Ge!」
『…』What was this one talking about?
Phile bird despised the Dragon’s foreign language skill, jumped off Choco’s head and tried its best to make an urgent gesture, and pounced a few times. The two dragons exchanged a look and then followed along. However, when they arrived at the place where the accident happened, they found nothing.
「GeGeGe!」 Phile bird stared at the flat ground in amazement. It jumped on the ground, transformed into its giant form, and pecked and stepped on it, but it only managed to carve a small hole.
『What happened?』 Rhett touched the ground and felt the Geo element seem somewhat active here. However, there were traces of Geo monsters’ activities everywhere, and it is customary to cause this level of element activity. As for common sense that there shouldn’t be so many Geo-type monsters within the scope of ordinary human villages, which is something the two dragons did not possess.
『It’s hard to communicate with this bird. How about we ask around?』 Alex took out a little note he found as he got out of the room. 『 Slair left us this note. They were going to hang out like this… 』
Following the guidance of the note, Alex and Rhett came to the temple. Its shiny appearance is very fond of the dragons, but as soon as they stepped inside, the two dragons were stunned– That giant statue in the center of the temple was a dragon weenie. The sculpture was realistic and majestic; you could see each grain on the thorns. In addition, the surrounding walls were painted with giant dragons solving their problems in the mud, and the expressions of the humans were very natural and sacred. They placed twin lotuses under the colossal statue, and those who donated extra money could reach out and touch it. Next to the statue, a priest was holding a spoon, scooping up the milky white liquid so-called 「Holy Water」from a wooden bucket and pouring it solemnly on the top of the statue. The Holy Water dripped down slowly along the grain and then fell on the twin lotuses below, making them more gorgeous.
『Grieve that little brat. What a prude!』 Alex was shocked by how open-minded humans were,『How dare he take our Slair to a place like this!』
『He must be deeply in love with our Slair!』 Rhett felt the same way 『Could it be… Is he trying to take a shoot at Slair while we are not paying attention!』
『Wait for a second, Rhett, don’t forget that we can’t interfere with the humans’ will to mate. And that boy is not that bad after all…』
『True…How about… We take a peek?』
『Take a peek! Great idea! But, where are they?』
