Chapter 93
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
Morning came and I didn’t get to sleep at all. I forced my sleep deprived body to rise and washed my face with cold water. I had to feed the animals at the very least.
I didn’t feel well today so I decided it’d be better if I didn’t go outside today. I stayed inside while nibbling on bread and dried meat. I also drank herbal tea to calm myself.
Let’s just lie down for now.
Ash looked like he was in high spirits, totally oblivious to my anxiety. I gave him deer bone and he played with it excitedly.
11:00
I seemed to have fallen asleep for a little bit. I yawned and sluggishly got up.
Going outside would be dangerous since that guy might have taken notice of me so I did whatever the things I could do inside. I went to the blacksmith workshop and did some practice I could do indoors like practicing ‘foot sword kick’, magic and swordsmanship.
13:00
My stomach was rumbling so I decided to have lunch. For lunch I had the simple dried meat with raw egg, bread and plain water.
Going outside was dangerous. There was also the possibility I could let the flying lizard know the existence of a human if I lit up the fire in the furnace to do blacksmithing work. It was better to use fire as minimum as possible.
I did nothing but work hard in training inside the blacksmith workshop to distract myself.
18:00
My body was sweating from working out so I soaked the towel in water and used it to wipe my body since I couldn’t get into the bath at times like this.
I slowly opened the door to the blacksmith workshop and peered outside.
It seems like everything is alright for now.
With food and a water dagger flask in my hand, I moved quickly into my bedroom.
19:00
It was a quiet night. From the outside, I could hear the faint sound of the birds, the insects and the rustling sounds of the trees like usual. But, you couldn’t be vigilant enough.
Today I decided to not run away from reality by drinking alcohol. If I drank, I wouldn’t be able to move properly when the time came. I needed to face reality properly. I should eat, drink water and go to bed properly. I should also put my equipment on and prepare my sword and shield so I could immediately grab them when I needed to.
Next, minimize the usage of fire and refrain from going out as much as possible. I should erase all traces of people in my house.
Those were the only things I could do right now but it was fundamental for me to do those things perfectly.
20:00
After dinner, which consisted of dried meat, bread, rumi fruits and water, I decided to go to bed early.

T/N: Our MC is so persistent~ Even Ash doesn’t care anymore~
Thanks for the chapter! Poor MC.
Thank you for reading~
Ash probably doesn’t care as much as he technically does have a better sense of danger than a human.
Also, slightly off topic, but reading back, it’s interesting to note that the dragon apparently appeared right after the nobleman touched Keigo with his right hand…and lost his right arm right after. More interesting is that Keigo isn’t harmed (outside of mental trauma that is). Let’s be real, the nobleman has to be RIGHT NEXT to Keigo to touch him, so Keigo could have gotten injured, yet he isn’t. He’s practically left alone even when he technically didn’t move too far from his last known location, so he’s a nice easy target who thinks his shield would keep him alive against the potential might of a dragon. That points out way too many possibilities ranging from ‘Dragon who’s female and can transform into a human’ to ‘servant to someone (likely female or has a daughter) that caught wind of what Keigo can do and willing to cause chaos to protect him. It’s a Japanese novel, so we can’t shove any Japanese cliche away from our guesses.
Back to Ash, while we only have Keigo’s PoV, thus it becomes a little unreliable since we don’t have anything that shows Ash being scared. It’s possible that Keigo’s too scared to notice anything except for ‘giant big lizard that could kill him is nearby’ to check though.
Oh, I didn’t think of that but now that you mention it… We already have the POV from the blue wolf so I guess it is possible to get POV from another monster too!
