Chapter 22.1 - Lizard Loving Family (2/2)

However, I can’t do anything about it as the contents are unknown, what can I do to prepare?

I wrote in the Oracle something like “I feel happening of a fateful encounter tomorrow.” So the villagers seem to be looking forward to tomorrow.

——————————

My sister returned home at 6 o’clock in the evening, and since my father was already home, so the whole family had dinner together.

It was a scene which I couldn’t image a month ago.

I was missing from this table everyday. This way the dinner feels warmer and more delicious than usual.

I was going to talk to my sister after the dinner but remembered that my father also liked reptiles so I decided that I could get more accurate answer if I ask now. I put my chopsticks down.

“I wanted to ask Sayuki something but I want Dad to know about it too.”

After I finished, my father and sister stared at me.

My sister is dissatisfied for some reason and my father is trying to maintain his stern expression but his cheeks are a little lose. [2]

“What do you want to ask?.”

“Is that about text message which you sent today?”

“Well, I told you that I was helping a village and I received a gift from then. Well, there was a reptile egg in it. I think it is a part of the village promotion. “

I thought about this village setting till late at night.

For now, it seems they are listening without any suspicion.

“That’s why I wanted to talk about how to take care of it. I heard that Sayuki and Dad like reptiles?”

It’s not like I knew before. I learned about it just today.

My sister and father responded to my rather timid question.

“That’s true. I don’t know much about them, but I can teach you some basics.”

“You can ask me anything. There is a set of breeding tools already stored in the warehouse.”

Oh, they are more supportive than I imagined.

I brought the egg from the second floor and asked then for the advice.

“This shape looks like a reptile egg but has a hard shell. It might be an aligator or a crocodile.”

“Wait a minute Dad! Is keeping a crocodile legal?”

The two are a bit excited and are giving their opinions on this and that.

They seem to be reciting reptiles name like a chant. They are telling me about the light, room temperature, etc… I can’t even understand 10% of what they are trying to say.

The result was that a nice little reptile nest was completed in my room.

Imagine something like an aquarium with sand and driftwood. There is also space for some water in it. By the way, everything used here was provided by my sister and father.

Since they made it easy for me to complete, I would like to thank my father and sister for their time.

“I can’t judge what it is till it’s born, so let me know when it hatches. Don’t forget to upload its photo Onii-sama!”

“Tell me immediately ok?”

“OK”
