Tensei Ouji Wa Daraketai Chapter 2.6

Status: Will edit..

「I will dance !」

Since I can’t help it I started dancing the bon festival dance.

I finally danced after who knows how many years, it is strange that I can’t forget how.

Because I’m dancing soundlessly, the sound of my clapping hands echoed loudly.

Aaah* …… It’s like when a banquet hall goes into death silence after giving out a one-liner.*t/n: This was うぅ, I’d love to write U~u but it looks weird..

However, after a while, the animals who saw my appearance began to gather around little by little. Moreover, they came behind me and danced as they were mimicking me.

「Oooo」

K, k-k-k-kawaii* !*t/n: kawaii vs cute, that is the question

Rabbits with horns in their heads, big-eared foxes, and squirrels that were around the size of a small dog; there were many other animals that I had never seen before. The small animals and I formed a circle as we danced the bon festival dance. The dance was very quiet, but it was the best and felt like a fairy tale.

I may have started it unwillingly, but …… The power of dancing is amazing. After two rounds around, a sense of solidarity was born from the dance.

Before I knew it, I was laughing with the animals as we danced the bon festival dance.

Ahaha, it’s really fun ! It’s too much of an impossible situation.

However, suddenly the animals scattered and disappeared*.*t/n: it says “They scattered in all directions like baby spiders.” rathen than just “scattered”.

「Eh, huh ? What’s wrong ?」

Suddenly, the place fell into silence as I was left alone; then I looked around me. And then I caught sight of a large shadow that was slowly approaching.

【What a unique person……】

The words that were said while laughing somehow sounded as if they were evaluating me.

It’s a huge black wolf. Let alone children, it’s size is so large that even adults could comfortably sit on its back.

However, what surprised even more than that was it’s color and its hair. It’s hair is probably the color of a crow’s wet feathers*.*t/n: “Color of a crow’s wet feathers” could also mean that the wolf’s hair was a glossy jet black but I stuck with this translation because I didn’t want to chop off the rest of the sentence.

Black glossy hair covered it’s entire body, it had two fluffy tails that swayed elegantly*.*t/n: “two tails” was originally “tail divided into two” but I thought the translation I used made more sense

「Waaa, how pretty」

I unintentionally said it out loud* in admiration. And the wolf narrowed his eyes in happiness.*t/n: The raws say that he “let out” or “leaked” a “sound in admiration”

【Are you not afraid of me ?】

When I was asked, I quickly shook my head.

「Why ? Even though you’re this beautiful」

【Almost everyone shows a reaction like those guys over there】

When I observed my surroundings again, the animals that were dancing were huddled together quivering in the distance. They were clearly afraid.

Is this wolf higher in rank than these animals ?

Come to think of it, did Aria say that animals would sometimes come from the forest ? And that’s why I needed escorts.

But, as I thought, I don’t feel scared.

If I were to say whether I’m a dog person or a cat person, then I’m definitely a dog person.

I wonder if it’s because I could not find a difference between this fox and a dog besides it having two tails, and its large size.

And I am more concerned about its beautiful fluffy hair than I am afraid.

The wolf seemed turned around me with apparent interest. Everytime he passed by in front of me, his tail shook and swayed as if tempting me.

「It looks like it would be extremely pleasant to the touch」

When he heard my words, the wolf giggled and could not suppress itself as it burst into laughter.

【The dance from earlier was good, you’re a funny guy】

Please don’t bring up the Bon festival dance.

But since he laughed, a bit of a friendly feeling formed.

「I want to ask you for a favor ……」

【What ?】

「Can I pet you ?」
