794 Brave Things (Medium)

Welcoming him as Fa's family, he was to be given the name Brave.

It seems that the meaning is something called "courage" or "bravery". It was Asta, Fa's family, who named him that way, but he could wholeheartedly like the name.

In Fa's house, there were only two human beings with a family. As parents, as hunters, he is the master of Brave, Ai-Fa, and Asta, Kamadu number.

The other Totos, known as Gill, is also considered a family member, and Brave is the fourth family member. Even for Brave, humans and tototos were supposed to never be harmed, but it was out of my imagination that they would be treated so much as family members in the same row.

But whatever it was, it was the dawn of a full day.

Ai-Fa was a hunter worthy of a hound master, and hunting for a giva was a proud job risking his life.

Gibba was still a beast with fearful powers.

It varies in size from individual to individual, but is usually larger than Brave, making it suspicious and handsome. Even if it were flat, it was still a beast in the woods with poor scaffolding that could move so quickly that it could not be beaten by a hound.

Besides, Gibba had a nasty temper.

In normal times, they are cautious, detecting signs of humans and hounds, and fleeing with flying momentum. Now, if you're hungry or have a hand wound, you're incredibly violent and you're attacking us with or without a word. This was no longer like dealing with two kinds of beasts of a completely different nature at the same time.

But Brave is also severely trained as a hound.

The more troublesome the prey was, the more his fighting spirit did not stop.

Besides, Brave's role was only to assist the hunter.

If the opponent is a slightly smaller prey, he may as well be tailored with Brave's fangs and nails, but most gibberishes were huge, and fur, meat, and bones are sturdy. Brave can only be tailored with his own strength would be about a giva of a younger toddler than he is at best.

Besides, Gibba has a weapon called a fang on a sharp corner.

If you get your body stuck with something like that, you're going to lose your life in one blow. If Brave were to tailor Gibba without the help of a hunter, all he could think of was enough measures to even run around and wait for his opponent's powers to run out.

But under Brave there is always the figure of a dependant master.

As long as it was with a hunter as powerful as I-Fa, Brave would never have fallen into such a predicament.

(This eye-fa must be a hunter with the power of fingerfolding even by the woods)

Brave was so sure.

Brave's role in the hunting ground is twofold.

One is to push the escaping giva to the trap.

The other was to inform Ai-Fa of the approaching of Giba, who had lost me.

Brave doesn't have the power to stop Gibba. But hounds have better noses and ears than humans, and they also beat the speed at which they run through the field. Use that ability to perform tasks that humans cannot fulfill.

I perceive the presence of Gibba faster than I-Fa to smell and divide whether it is a normal or ferocious Gibba. Gibba emits an unpleasant sour scent when angry, so it's not hard to sniff it apart from the distance. If that's how the opponent is a regular giva, he pushes it to the trap at the behest of Ai-Fa, and if it's a ferocious giva, he tells Ai-Fa the danger. The basic task was such a step.

However, such a step was well established after a few days had elapsed since Brave went out into the woods.

Eifa was also the first to deal with hounds.

Though Schmiral seemed to have received a one-way gesture, Ai-Fa had previously done the giva hunting job alone. Instead, it was thought that in just a few days the staging could be established because Ai-Fa had extraordinary powers as a hunter.

(And Ai-Fa, more quickly than the humans on the ranch, draws my thoughts. as if the words make sense)

In the middle of work, for example, this happened.

In the woods, when they perceived signs of violent gibberish. Gibba had already rushed this way, so Brave was to hurry up and tell Ai-Fa of the crisis.

"A hungry Gibba is coming this way. Then keep Brave lurking in your bush."

If a ferocious giva is the opponent, Brave moves poorly, it threatens to get in the way of I-Fa. Thus, it was the previous step that Ai-Fa would deal with him from the front when this happened.

Of course, Ai-Fa doesn't just caricaturally await Gibba's arrival. Moving to a place where I could wield enough swords to lurk in the shade was the usual means.

Even that day Ai-Fa waited for Gibba, hidden behind the great tree.

Brave is dressed to dive into the bushes and see Ey-Fa from the side.

A while later, Gibba appeared as she kicked through the bush.

It was a place that opened up to proportions, so with so much momentum, we rush into the hidden great tree of Ai-Fa.

I guess I'm attracted to the fragrance because I was dealing with something called gibberish fruit just now.

But it seems that today's Gibba is losing me, among other things, and as it is, it was a momentum that was likely to collide from the front with Ai-Fa's hidden great tree.

Usually, where Gibba goes through the side of the great tree, Ai-Fa waves the knife down, but what happens if Gibba crashes into the great tree? Wouldn't that shock put Ey-Fa out of shape and take the time to deal with the next one?

Brave, thinking of it that way, let him roar aggressively.

Gibba, who was approaching Daiki, turns to Brave with tremendous momentum.

Thus, the moment Gibba tried to turn the direction - Ai-Fa, who jumped out of the shadow of the great tree with agility when he was lightning, slashed and tore Gibba's throat whistle as if from the bottom.

Red blood floods through the wounds of Gibba, who collapses more and more.

Looking down at the giant Gibba cramped with fright, Ai-Fa was wearing his sword without alarm, but eventually, when he breathed, he turned back towards Brave.

"That's enough. I'm surprised you bark all of a sudden... was there any reason?

…………

"Mm-hmm. I can't believe you're barking without meaning. For some good reason, you thought you should draw Giva's attention."

…………

"Mm-hmm. This could be a surprisingly effective hand."

From the next opportunity, Brave was to roar from the beginning, without diving into himself.

If Brave is softening up, the ferocious Giva is coming this way. It was the newly conceived practice that the eye-fa lurking in the shade was slashed from flanking.

"Sometimes it was time for Gibba to rush into the braves that lurked in the bushes, not me. At that time, I was wondering if you would be crushed by Gibba, and it would probably be safer still to chill your liver... then show up from the start."

Speaking that way, I-Fa stroked Brave's neck muscles with a powerful, loving work.

"If you keep enough distance between where you stand and where I lurk, in case they consider Gibba, you will loose your way. I'm going to try this method for a while to come, but I don't know?

…………

"All right, your agility is dangerous, but don't be alarmed."

As a scumbag, Ey-Fa sucked away Brave's mood everywhere.

Is this the property of the people by the woods? Apparently, the people by the biological woods, headed by Ai-Fa, felt better able to mingle with the hounds than Asta, who was born exotically.

But after all, among them, Ai-Fa is distinct.

Ai-Fa was really acknowledging Brave as a family, with no distinction between humans and hounds.

From time to time, I - Fa - had spoken to Brave well. Moreover, Ai-Fa tended to be silent in places with many people's eyes, so the more he became alone with Brave, the more he seemed to rap.

It was particularly remarkable after Asta went out at work.

Until Asta leaves the house, a number of humans will gather at Fa's house. That's how Asta leaves the house, while those people disappear, too. Even Gill of Totos would leave the house with Asta, so only Ai-Fa and Brave would be left in the house.

One day I encouraged my salary work, and one day I relaxed in the shade of the house and outside trees, and I-Fa told me different things.

"I spent about two years alone until I welcomed Asta as my family. My mother died when I was thirteen, and my father died when I was fifteen."

…………

"And yet in those days, I had a bad relationship with the Sung family of the chieftaincy muscle. Therefore, we also had to keep bonding with Ziba women and friends like Limi-Luu and Saris Lang-Fou. Speaking of which it wasn't hard... let's be a big lie"

…………

"It was Asta who saved me like that. He didn't just become Fa's family, he created an opportunity for me to bond back with the Ziva woman and Rimi-Lou. Later, when uncovering the sins of the Sung family, Asta's power would have been indispensable... and it would still be thanks to Asta that I was able to reconnect with Saris Lang-Fou and the rest of my family"

Ai-Fa, who was somewhere far-sighted, stares at Brave all the time there.

I = fa at times like this had a very soft look, lurking within the hunter-like rigour and strength as well.

"Before that, I guess it was because of Asta that I felt like accepting others. Asta's deeply loving heart and that unyielding smile softly melted my heart."

…………

"Now it's time for him to behave like that, but when he met me, it was already an angry man. You didn't make sense of it, you said it was a deviation, and you couldn't shake one of your knives in the manhood... once, you fell asleep and tried to eat me, right? At that time, I really thought you'd slap me."

…………

"But Asta has been a very caring person since that time. Besides... he was a man who knew the pain of losing an important human being. That sad look in my eyes when I was telling you that my home town and my family were all gone... I would have thrown Asta out the next morning too if I hadn't seen that one. I couldn't leave Asta alone when I saw her pushing so hard to kill that hearty despair."

…………

"But if you realize, it was me who was being saved. It's really... a strange one."

That being said, Ai-Fa has been gently hugging Brave's neck.

I feel very warm about the life force that pulses in Ey-Fa's body.

"Am I so happy that I am able to give Asta the same amount of happiness... when I can't see Asta this way, I get anxious at times. If you look at that beautiful, weather smile, you'll soon disappear."

To Brave, I cannot comfort Ai-Fa in human terms.

I just hoped that Ey-Fa would make it a little easier by disclosing his insides in this way.

Such an eye-fa, too, is already a brave hunter once he welcomes Jomtien to the woods.

No matter how soft the insides were exposed, it was never once that I = fa would put the job aside.

(I'm really happy to be able to tour with a husband like I-Fa. But......)

There was only one thing Brave was afraid of.

It was, after all, about the dangers of giva hunting.

With each passing day, Ai-Fa and Brave established their giva hunting practices so that they could achieve definitive results.

But as all the misconduct was eliminated, so too were the parts of it that could not be eliminated.

(At least if I had another hound with the same power as mine, I'd think those dangers could be avoided too... is that a hard wish?

This forest was too vast, and the number of givahs was too high. What Brave feared was what to do when dealing with multiple givers.

What happens if another giva approaches Ai-Fa when Brave is chasing Giva, for example? That would be for Ai-Fa to deal with alone. Of course, if you're an eye-fa, no matter how huge the giva is, it's hard to take that backwards - but still, it didn't make a difference to dangerous things.

Besides, even when surrounded by multiple gibberishes from the beginning, it will be very difficult. The idea that Brave would ambush him is also useless if Gibba was more than one, once and for all leading up to the fact that Eyfa would climb a tree with Brave and escape the difficulties.

"Thanks to you for detecting the danger, you were able to escape."

I = fa had said that to me, but as a brave I was unwilling. If there are two hounds, one can run around and attract more than one giva, and the other and Ai-Fa can finish off one at a time.

(Gibba hunting was such a dangerous job. So I guess that hunter named Lyada-Lu was also to bear the deep hand with all that power. I guess I'm a hunter with the same rare powers that I can continue to work on my own for more than two years... but still, with two hounds instead, I should be able to keep working safer)

With that thought in his chest, Brave was to live his days.

And it came to pass, about the month of the lid, that the man came to Pha's house.

It is the fifth family of the house of Fa, Zilbe the lion dog.

"Starting today, he was also to be invited as a family member of Fa. You're never gonna wake up, are you?

To Ai-Fa, who returned from town, it was to be so offered.

At its feet, a black, giant dog refrains. A dog so huge, Brave had never even seen it.

(If I had pinched my nose, I wouldn't think this was a dog)

Zilbe had a thick body when he did it. He said his body length and height were about the same as Brave's, but he was likely to weigh twice as much. His head is large, his limbs are short, and he has morsels and hair growing around his neck. The tip of his nose was crushed properly, and he had a flat face like a human being.

"They say Zilbe has been raised not as a hound, but as a guard dog to protect humans. So I can't let you help me with my giva hunting job, but I'm going to stay close to you as a family in the same house."

Saying so, Ai-Fa bowed herself and wandered Zilbe's neck.

"Zilbe, this is Brave, Fa's family. I don't even know how many years you've lived, but Brave will be the first in this house. Respect like a brother and learn to live by the woods."

Zilbe was blinking her black, big eyes.

Probably younger than Brave. Its large body feels an unbeatable vitality to the hounds, but it seems to have a much more innocent character.

(But somewhere, I can also feel dangerous signs. Perhaps this one can bite him to death, whether he's a dog, a human or a totoss, as long as his husband's orders)

It was an unacceptable place for hounds. Hounds are thoroughly educated not to do harm to their compatriots, humans and tototosses first.

(Plus that flat face looks a lot more convenient to bite the prey. I wonder if I can bite Giva's torso without being prevented from breathing)

But Ai-Fa looks like he doesn't intend to entrust Zilbe with the task of hunting Gibba.

It was such a shame to leave a dog with so much power alone.

(So I'll see what I can do)

But before that, it is first a greeting.

As Brave let his nose tip against that crushed nose, Zilbe let his eyes shine innocently.

The fact that it's my job to protect humans, I guess I was trained along with other compatriots for a certain period of time, just like Brave. And yet, it's how he already admitted to being his husband about I-Fa, and he didn't seem to have any vigilance about Brave.

Having finished greeting Brave flicks himself, Zilbe follows as he rocks his long hairs. Long body hair, not just around the neck. If we were to go into the woods, those hairs would need to be cut short.

but such worries were only futile.

Zilbe's lack of hound qualities soon became known.

(Is this guy so blunt-footed)

When Brave put a little effort into it, Zilbe's giant quickly strayed away.

Zilbe was only able to run at what speed he was human at best because he was too giant.

And yet, while I don't run as much, I'm getting my tongue out and gasping heavily. Something like endurance seems to be missing.

(So this guy was trained to protect humans from humans. So I guess that means you don't even have to run smarter than a human)

As Brave eased his gait, Zilbe caught up with him instead.

It looks very enjoyable. Apparently, he finds great joy in deflecting with the same dog. Maybe after my training, I've only spent a long time with humans.

"Apparently, you're going to do well. It's a relief."

Asta, just next to Ai-Fa, said so with a smile.

I = fa also watch the Braves with a gentle look.

Of course, as a brave, it was a great pleasure for Zilbe, the same dog, to be welcomed as a family.

At the same time, however, it is true that I was disappointed. When Brave stopped his leg, Zilbe looked big looking a little worried.

(Don't be dramatic. I'm just worried at my convenience. You are not guilty)

Zilbe has rubbed his nose tip to sweeten it.

It's a lot like having a big brother.

Originally, it was Brave's convenience to expect Jilbe, not a hound. In the future, as a family of the same fa, I wanted to deepen my ties.

That's how Fa's house was to live the day with two and three heads.

The increase in the number of families named Zilbe did not change the first time in their lives. While Asta went down to town and Ai-Fa and Brave were in the woods, it was Zilbe's job to protect the house. This was apparently the same job as a watchdog who was also on the ranch.

One surprise was that Zilbe ate food other than meat.

Based on Asta's words, it seems to be a lion dog or escort dog trait.

"In my hometown, dogs were omnivores, too, right? So I guess Brave, who only eats meat, feels rarer to me."

That's what Asta said as she watched Brave and Zilbe eat.

I = fa also gently narrows his eyes, while hammering "Really?".

"Yeah. But was it carnivorous, after all? While living with humans, they may have started eating the same"

"So will Brave also be able to eat anything other than meat?

"No, I don't know about that. If you suddenly feed them, they're going to hurt your health."

"Then you should stick to it."

Even if they didn't tell me, Brave wasn't willing to mouth anything other than meat.

Hounds eat meat, Totos eat grass leaves, and humans and lion dogs eat different things. That was all the talk and there was nowhere to be found, such as a reason to change your mind.

Thus Fa's house was able to welcome a new family without delay - but it did not take a few days for a new noise to wind up.

It is the appearance of Tia, which the Ai-Fas call "the people of the sanctuary".

Tier's presence brought more surprises to Brave than Zilbe.

I couldn't even tell Brave what this was all about.

(I do look human, and I use my language as a human. But... what the hell is this odd sign?

The people by the woods were also incredible to Brave.

This tier was as if it had further condensed its incredibility.

What I feel from Tia is a sign of a wild beast.

The people by the woods also bore signs as if they were part of the woods, but by that I mean Tia and others were the woods themselves. Or, if her hometown is a mountain, not a forest, should it be regarded as a mountain itself? Anyway, for Brave, Tia was felt to be the very vitality of nature.

(There exists such an incredible thing in this world that speaks the human language in a human figure, with more signs of beastliness in the field than Gibba or Mundt)

Tia is a being who cannot be a friend or a compatriot, and she is talking about returning to her home mountain after her wounds have healed. If so, there was no reason for Brave to cling to Tia - but it was also difficult to silence an incredible being like this.

One day, Tia was alone and blurred, so when Brave snuck up on her, she said away like this.

"Are you so, so rare about Tia? Don't worry, Tia won't hurt Asta or Ai-Fa."

…………

"Mm-hmm. Tia feels a great debt to the people of Asta and the woods. As long as this benevolence is trampled upon, Tia intends to return this soul to the Great God at any time"

…………

"Oh, there was a beast similar to yours in Tia's hometown, too. Well, in you and the wolves of the Valve, you may be as far away from the people of the town as the 'Red People'... but still, I'm sure it's something that makes your ancestors alike. Tia's clan and Valve's clan were friends, so it seems preferable about you"

…………

"Nevertheless, you are no stranger to being a people of the outside world. Tia and you can't be friends or brothers, so you don't have to do anything about it. Don't worry about Tia, you live your life."

Apparently, this tier was more able to see Brave's mood than the people of Ai-Fa or the woodland.

(I really didn't know anything about this world. To the people by the woods, to the people of the sanctuary, to the lion dog, Gibba... everything was out of my imagination. The world was so full of incredible things)

With such emotion in his chest, Brave decided to leave under Tia.

With the appearance of Tia, Asta and the others were set to have such noisy days.

But still, Brave's life was not going to be threatened. If you become Jomtien, go into the woods with Ai-Fa and do your giva hunting job. A few days after Tia showed up she was to receive something called a period of rest, but during that time she also spent time with Ai-Fa and Asta and Zilbe, all the more in the days of peace itself.

But Brave also decided to know how busy Asta was going through her days by welcoming a period of rest.

Between morning and boarding town and returning from boarding town for the night, Asta was stuffed to work with little rest.

Behavior is unknown while you're down to the boarding town, but of course you won't be playing around there either. As Brave glimpsed on his first day, he was supposed to be doing his job there or as his number.

The only time such an asta could rest herself was apparently after dinner.

Usually Brave falls asleep better first, so it took him a while to confirm it, but sometimes he heard Asta talking to Ai-Fa in a relaxed voice.

"Tia, you look like you slept.... Ai-Fa, are you okay?

"What do you mean you're okay? I don't think anything's happening to you."

"No, because since I welcomed Tia to Fa's house, I-Fa feels like she's been very careful. Of course, I'm welcoming an incredible guest who's a people of the sanctuary, so I guess it's natural not to get distracted..."

"Mm-hmm. But stick around, 'cause you don't suspect this guy's going to be bad. It's not so much a struggle."

"Oh well. But with Tia's eyes, Ai-Fa doesn't quite break his expression.... No, no, I'm not complaining about Ai-Fa's frivolous face."

…………

"So that's what makes you so relieved when you give me a soft look sometimes"

"Fool," Ai-Fa replied, "the voice sounded very happy. I'm sure he's talking to Asta with that soft look, which also shows Brave sometimes.

Surprisingly, Ai-Fa and Asta were not a couple.

From the first time he looked up, Brave had no doubt that both names were husband and wife. When man turns his love to man, there is a unique sweet fragrance that arises, but Ai-Fa and Asta had a sweeter, sweeter fragrance than Brave had ever sniffed before.

It was a really hard story to believe that you don't bond with your partner while living in the same house with someone you are so inclined to love.

But that, apparently, is because I-Fa is a hunter. It was a story that Ai-Fa would not give her a wedding because when she welcomed her partner and gave birth to a child, she would no longer be able to work as a hunter.

(With me, I don't even want to imagine losing a husband as good as I-Fa... but if I were I-Fa, wouldn't it also be possible to do my job as a hunter while raising a child?

Whatever it was, as a brave, I just wanted to wish Ai-Fa and Asta a happy ending.
