The Man Picked up by the Gods – Volume 2 Chapter 65: Preparations (2/2)
The next day .
Today was the day when they would finally try taming a rimel bird . To that end, I, the four members of the duke family, Jill-san, Zeff-san, Camil-san, and Hyuzu-san walked the road toward the mines .
The ojousama and the others were donned in armor and had a weapon with them just like when we went out to train at the mines before, but in my case, I was wearing my latrine-pit cleaning outfit . Being the only one dressed like this sure makes me stand out from our group…
Incidentally, we also couldn’t use the carriage in order to train the ojousama . She might actually have quite a bit of stamina . We’ve been walking all this time, and although we might be taking breaks from time to time, I still think it’s amazing that she hasn’t complained .
“Fuu… Ryoumsan, are you alright?” [Elia]
“I’m alright . ” [Ryouma]
“You sure have a lot of stamina . ” [Elia]
The ojousama was gradually getting tired, but it’s not really something to make a fuss about .
After all, we were walking up a mountain trail, and the road wasn’t paved, so I think it’s already commendable that she’s not complaining .
Camil-san seemed to have thought the same thing as he encouraged her .
“It’s alright, Ojousama . You’re stamina is already amazing compared to normal children your age . ” [Camil]
“That’s right, Ojousama . Don’t compare yourself with Ryouma . This guy is just abnormal . Any normal child would have long been out of breath, but this guy isn’t even sweating . Sweat a little, won’t you?” [Hyuzu]
“Even if you tell me that…” [Ryouma]
That’s a physiological phenomenon, so…
“But seriously, boy, most people would at least sweat easily without having to be told that’s the norm . ” [Hyuzu]
“I know we’re not going very fast to match the ojousama’s pace, and I’d understand if you were a trained expert like us, but you’re still just a child, aren’t you? Just what kind of training have you been doing?” [Camile]
“Hmm… To put it briefly, I was trained to the limits . Whenever I fell or rested, I’d get beaten up so hard to be heavily wounded, and then I’d be asked if I’d rather keep getting beaten or train . After doing that everyday, I ended up like this . ” [Ryouma]
“Was your master a demon from hell!?” [Hyuzu]
“Can’t refute that . ” [Ryouma]
When I was a child, I was really scared of my dad . So much that I couldn’t even breathe when I was in front of him .

While I was thinking that, it seemed it was time for us to set off .
“We have to get moving again before Elia cools down completely . ” [Reinhart]
“It’s just a little bit more . ” [Hyuzu]
Like that we started walking again, then after some 30 minutes of walking, the road curved and we entered into a forest . After another 30 minutes, the air started to smell really bad . So, this is the stench of a marsh .
As we continued along, the redbrown-colored marsh came to view .
We seemed to be somewhere by the very borders of the forest and the mine . We were inside a forest, but there were few trees, and the marsh felt as if the earth from the abandoned mind had collapsed and flowed into it .
The smell only got worse as we approached the marsh . The ojousama had to cover her mouth to endure it .
“This is the marsh I was talking about . The smell you’re smelling comes from the fallen leaves and the rotting corpses of various organisms inside the marsh . ” [Reinhart]
“What a horrible smell…” [Elia]
“It certainly stinks, but unless you can adapt to this, you won’t be able to explore the other regions . ” [Elize]
Oh, yeah . Reinbach-sama has supposedly fixed the Jamil territory up, so it’s a lot bettor compared to the other regions… Wait, does that mean that the other regions smell like this all the time? Oh, dear . Let’s hope not .
“Hmm… It seems the grell frogs and the rimel birds aren’t in this marsh yet . This isn’t the only marsh, so let’s check the others . ” [Reinbach]
“Hmm… It seems the grell frogs and the rimel birds aren’t in this marsh yet . This isn’t the only marsh, so let’s check the others . ” [Reinbach]
As such, we started walking again . 10 minuted later, we found a marsh 3 times bigger than the previous one . This time, 30 adventurers, 30 monster tamers, and over 200 birds came to view .
“Those are rimel birds!” [Reinhart]
“Those are…” [Ryouma]
“They’re beautiful…” [Elia]
The rimel bird resembled a large parrot, but it had a tail that you could find from long-tailed fowls . Its body was blue, but its head and tail were covered with beautiful green feathers . No wonder it’s so popular . It looks so strange with the marsh as its backdrop .
They’re really beautiful, but I think the surrounding adventurers will become a hindrance .
“They went that way!” [Adventurer 1]
“Hurry up and catch the grell frogs!” [Adventurer 2]
“Ah!?” [Adventurer 1]
“Hurry! Before it gets eaten’ . [Adventurer 2]
The adventurer entered the marsh and started competing with the rimel birds for the grell forgs .
Tough-looking men played about in the mud, trying to catch redbrown-colored frogs – the same color as the mud – with either their nets or their hands… It was a sweltering sight .

Meanwhile, two young men brought out their instruments by the side of the marsh .
“Ryouma, Elia, look . It seems those two want to try their hands at taming the rimel birds . ” [Elize]
The other man started blowing his flute . It seemed to be a recorder of some sort . He didn’t seem very skilled .
“How important is musical skill when trying to tame a rimel bird?” [Ryouma]
“It’s hard to say since the ones judging are none other than the rimel birds themselves . ” [Sebasu]
“As word says, there was even a case when a monster tamer played confidently only to be rejected, then in a fit of anger, slammed his instrument against the ground, causing a discordant sound to play, and was then able to form a contract with a rimel bird . ” [Elia]
“I don’t know what to say to that…” [Ryouma]
When the man finished playing, the rimel birds all started chirping out in unison .
“Kera kera kera kera kera kera kera!!”
“Ahahahahahaha!”
The man’s performance was met with the laugh of over 200 birds .
