Chapter 4 (1/2)

Chapter 4: The Uncle and the Pet

Life is full of twists and turns.

The closer you get to my age, the more unnecessary emotions you get.

This morning, when I was half awake and half dreaming, G.o.d appeared to me and asked:

“Do you want to became a pa.s.ser-by?”

I nodded my head enthusiastically, then fell asleep once again until I was called up by Elan.

If you think about it closely, G.o.d seemed to be saying, “Dream on” right?

What a prideful G.o.d.

Well, even without G.o.d, if all I do is watch the heroes, I will become a pa.s.ser-by.

Therefore-

“Elan! Today we’re going to go buy a pet!”

“Wow~”

Suddenly, Elan’s face almost burst with happiness.

Shaking with happiness, her hands grabbed my sleeve.

She must have thought that I was doing this to fulfill her childish wish to have a pet, but in fact it was not. Sorry, little Elan, I have ulterior motives.

If I’m going to wait here for the hero to appear, I have to forget about the world from where I was reincarnated, and live a peaceful villager’s life.

According to my observations, most of the residents in this village here keep pets.

For example, kittens and puppies.

I’ve already gone through much contemplation. If a leave the Weapons shop to go to the Flower shop for a while, Elan will have a playmate. And if the situation arises, a large dog can also serve as a protector for her.

Because it’s mainly for Elan, we’ll buy it based on her preferences.

Well given that it’s Elan, she may like cats. That’s fine too; I have nothing against cats.

However, Elan pa.s.sed by all the lazy and cute kittens.

“That one, I want that one.”

After looking around, Elan, who was hiding behind me, nodded her head towards a caged creature.

Let me see….

Silver moonlight colored fur, clean white teeth, black jewel-like eyes, long ears and large face, and a body a little smaller than a horse. I looked at Elan with gentle eyes. I must admit, this creature is indeed very beautiful compared to others of its kind.

But, this is a donkey, isn’t it?

However I look at it, it’s definitely a donkey, besides the silver fur being rather rare. In fact, in my previous world there was a person who wrote about how he and a silver donkey played together. A story of hand and hoof brothers. However, the silver donkey was not a specialty of this world either.

“Why did you choose this small donkey?”

I smiled at Elan and asked.

“Be, because the little hairball looked very lonely, just like, just like how I was before I met brother. That’s why, that’s why I thought…”

She was already completely sobbing.

At this point, I can’t just not buy it.

I looked at the donkey.
