Chapter 252 - The Need for Sleep (1/2)

I went to bed without touching the bath.

I literally fell into my bed.

Getting old like this makes you tired when you’re up all night.

Since Moofy and Femm usually always slept with me, the bed had a lot of room now.

I took Shiggy out of the pouch.

「ryaa?」

Shiggy said, quietly.

「Go back to bed.」

「ryaa」

And Shiggy did.

I put her on my stomach, covered her with the blanket, and fell asleep.

◇◇◇

「ryaa!」

Someone was slapping my cheeks, so I woke up.

I looked and Shiggy was right in front of me.

She was patting my cheeks and holding my nose shut.

「ryaa!」

When our eyes met, Shiggy cried out happily.

「Shiggy, you’re awake?」

「ryaa」

I looked outside.

It was still quite bright. Seeing from the direction of the shadows, it was near noon.

「Are you hungry?」

「ryaa!」

Since she did sound very hungry, I sat up in bed.

From there I reached under my pillow into my magic bag and got some dried meat.

「Eat up!」

「ryann ryaammm!」

She ate the meat from my hand happily.

But honestly, I still felt very sleepy.

I had stayed up all night, and I had used a lot of magic.

I destroyed that giant statue. Then a huge amount of Jack Frosts.

It was pretty rare recently to use that much magic.

Even so, it felt pretty good to shoot a full-powered magic bolt again.

It feels good to use all your power.

While thinking about that,

「Moo mooo」

I heard Moofy’s voice from my blanket.

「Moofy, where’d you come from?」

When I got into the bed, Moofy was still cleaning the streets of snow.

I guess she had come here when she had finished cleaning.

「Huffhuff」

She put her snout over my leg and huffed.

「Good job cleaning the snow, Moofy.」

「Moo moo」

I rubbed her head.

Shiggy ate meat while I rubbed Moofy gently.

「Moofy, did you sleep last night?」

「Moo」

I didn’t know if that was a yes or no.

『She slept last night.』

「okay.」

I heard Femm tell me from the foot of my bed.

「Femm, you’re awake.」

『I just woke up.』

「Okay. Well good work to you too.」

After saying that, Femm prance on the bed to me.
