Volume 2 - CH 286
“Hi- hibernation……?”
“Yes.”
Houen, who spoke so calmly, had us all frozen.
The only one who was able to say those words was Kreis, and only one more time.
….. I, is that, seriously?
Certainly Reizen is a tortoise, but …… is this guy really hibernating?
Tortoises are endothermic animals.
That’s why they stop their activities in the winter.
Reizen’s current species is still a tortoise, and it is certainly not surprising that he is hibernating.
I didn’t think that was even done in human form, but …….
Huh, but what about me?
I was a warm-temperate animal too, and I don’t think it’s surprising that I hibernate just as much as Reizen does. ……
…… Ah right, I’m neither of those things.
I’m not a snake, and I’m not a dragon.
So …… a body that doesn’t need to hibernate …….
Somehow it’s complicated.
“Reizen’s body is a little special. It is unbelievably hard, strong, and resistant, but he also has a weakness. That is winter. When it gets cold, his body doesn’t work as well as it should, and only during that time does he fall asleep.”
“So, you are saying that Reizen will stay like this until the snow melts?”
“He probably won’t wake up until spring.”
“No way. ……”
Oh, that was a good deception.
Well, if we told people about Reizen’s race in front of other people, they would never believe us, so I think Houen’s move was a very good one.
But hibernation?
That thought had never crossed my mind.
I could never have assumed that he would hibernate in human form.
Come to think of it, it was snowing when we were walking outside.
Not a lot has piled up yet, but I guess it is when it starts snowing that Reizen falls asleep.
Three days ago, the first snow fell.
It must have been the same in the Kingdom of Salettana.
“C- can you do something about it!?”
‘…… I can’t, it’s too difficult for me. ……”
Houen said this with a serious look in his eyes as he looked at Kreis, who was tearfully pleading with him.
Probably, the current Reizen would never wake up under any circumstances.
Never thought it would come to this …….
Unfortunately Uchiakage is out and Reizen is in this condition.
As a party, we can get along just fine, but I can’t take on human form.
The fact that I can’t speak is a problem.
So, what should we do now ……?
Is it possible to wake up Reizen by warming up the room?
No, but I don’t know what will happen to Reizen after we force him to wake up.
It might not be a big problem, but it’s not a good idea to wake him up without giving him my information.
In fact, it’s warm enough in this room.
Even if Houen uses his skills to warm up the room as much as he can, it doesn’t seem like he’ll wake up.
Hmmm… …….
In this situation, I don’t think I can ask to borrow the castle’s library.
What should I do?
“Prince Kreis. Where is your father now?”
“He has not returned yet. He’ll be back in a week.”
“So carefree. ……”
He hasn’t come back yet.
Perhaps it’s convenient for the people in charge of the castle, though.
Because they can do all the post-event processing.
It seems like they are still working on it.
“Houen, what are you going to do?”
“Reizen at this situation. …… Prince Kreis, I’m very sorry, but is it okay if I leave Reizen here for the time being?”
“Of course! He is my best friend!”
“Thank you very much. This room is warmer than the rest of the building, so it might be possible for him to wake up at any moment. Speaking of which, did you notice anything unusual about Reizen three days ago?”
“Hmm? …… was there anything…..”
Kreis made a motion of holding a fork and knife, and then said.
“He said he was hungry, so he ate a lot of the food in the castle if I remember correctly, right?”
“…… like hoarding the food?”
[Hoarding the food. Seriously, this guy doesn’t seem to want to get up, so why don’t we focus on leveling me up for now?]
“That would be reasonable. ……”
Kreis tilted his head at Houen’s monologue, but thought he must have something on his mind, so he stopped speaking out about it.
For the time being, we’ll just leave Reizen here.
He would be fine here.
Moreover, this place is safe , and if something were to happen, no human could penetrate Reizen’s defenses.
At any rate, let’s put my priority for now.
I felt bad for Reizen, but….
So, we left the castle at once, leaving Reizen behind.
“Yes.”
Houen, who spoke so calmly, had us all frozen.
The only one who was able to say those words was Kreis, and only one more time.
