I wondered why such a horse would be here, but then Yurie muttered something quietly.
“A BATTLEHORSE*? This is a demonic beast. ……” (*In english)
“Eh, what? Fighting horses?”
“I wonder what I’m interpreting that word to translate into.”
I mean, it’s just a literal translation of English. ……
I guess it doesn’t work in this world.
“Um, what’s a battle-horse?”
“Well, it’s a rare demonic beast, so I can understand why you don’t know what it is. When an ordinary horse eats the flesh of a monster, it can evolve into a battlehorse, which is very rare. But horses are herbivores and don’t eat meat, so it is rare for them to eat it. They don’t eat meat unless they are extremely starved.”
Hee, I didn’t know that. …….
Does that mean this guy ate the meat of the centipede that attacked the Kingdom of Salettana?
Gee, I wonder why this guy decided to eat it. ……
Then the battlehorse stomps its foot.
It is so powerful that the ground shakes slightly.
It looks like this thing is going to have as much firepower as a chariot just by running on the front line. ……
“Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.”
“…… hmm?”
I feel like the battlehorse is staring only at me.
I’m a little curious and try to move away from Yurie, but its gaze is still following me.
I went to the other side and it was the same.
Eh, is there something on …… me?
Then the battlehorse raises its upper body once, and with a thud with both front feet, pierces the ground.
“NEIIIIIGHH!”
“Oh …… that’s awesome …….”
“This will scare the other horses. It looks like the caretakers are having a hard time ……”
I looked in the back and saw someone tending to the horses that were flopping around in the shed.
Is this happening because we are here?
Maybe we should leave as soon as possible.
Yurie agrees, and we try to leave.
But then, the battlehorse started to go berserk.
“HNEEEEEEIGHHHH!!”
“What the hell!?”
“Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
‘Eh …… what the heck is that, come on …… and ……. Oh, that? This, this stable …….”
When I looked at the stable again, it looked somewhat familiar.
If I go back to my memory, I will remember it right away.
This is …… the stable where we used to leave our horses!
“You’re a starhorse!!?
“Neiiigh!”
“Seriously!? Eh, really!!!?”
As I approached, I was almost stopped strongly by the people around us and the caretaker.
But it was not in time, and as soon as I got close to the battlehorse, it quickly lowered its head and let me pet it.
By nature, battlehorses are monsters and dangerous.
Demonized animals basically attack humans.
However, this battlehorse did not attack people, and seemed to be sitting there waiting for someone.
The manager of the stable was also thinking about when to dispose of the beast, but since it was harmless and had a reputation as a rare stable with a battlehorse, he decided not to do so for the time being.
Then, I never expected to see him again.
I wondered if such a thing was possible, and the people around us were puzzled as to how a battlehorse could have missed us.
