Chapter 2 – Fenrir Life 1
I spent a while drinking from Mama Fenrir’s breast.
To be honest, I had serious doubts about whether a human – and a mere baby like me – would be able to survive, but thanks to Mama Fenrir’s efforts, I was doing well.
Mama Fenrir was kind, and my siblings were also kind to me, even though they could be rough at times.
Incidentally, I have two brothers and one sister.
I’m not sure of the order in which we were born, but it’s somehow decided that we were born in order of size, with the eldest son and daughter being the eldest son and the second son and the second daughter.
My older brothers were already about the size of lions in this world, so naturally I was the youngest.
Phew, breast milk is delicious.
After drinking my fill and feeling satisfied, Mama rose to her feet.
Then, she roared, “Gah!”, and ran out of the cave.
I wanted to take a nap on my mommy’s tummy like usual…
I had no choice, so I trudged over to where my big sister was grooming herself.
Perhaps it’s because my body is so good in this life, or maybe it’s because I still have memories from my past life–I was able to walk normally about six months after I was born.
However, my other siblings were already running around, so I couldn’t really show off.
Noticing me approaching, my big sister welcomed me with kind eyes.
Big sister, you’re so kind!
I climbed onto my big sister’s soft, warm back and hugged her tightly.
I’m so happy~
As I was dozing off like that, I felt something coming in from the entrance of the cave.
I looked up, and my mom had just returned.
In her mouth, she was holding something like a giant deer, and with its neck in her mouth, the deer’s huge body was swinging back and forth.
Huh? What?
Ignoring my blank stare, Mama put the deer down and barked “Gah!” to gather everyone together.
Big sister stood up with me on her back, and walked away carefully, probably so as not to drop me.
My brothers came running from the depths of the cave.
Mama bit into the deer’s belly and tore it open!
The innards gushed out, and I couldn’t help but grimaced.
Gross!
It’s really gruesome!
The fishy stench and the sight made me instinctively bury my face in my sister’s back.
I’m going to puke!
I will puke!
But I felt a pat on the back.
I looked up, and Mama was looking down at me kindly.
Then she put me down on the ground with her white Fluffy and barked “Gah!”.
It somehow seemed to say, “Feel free to eat.”
It barked at the other brothers around it as well.
Then everyone who had gathered there started gobbling down the deer.
Oh, wow, you’re eating this…
But when you think about it, it was obvious.
You can’t live on milk forever.
You’re being raised by the Fenrir race, so you’ll have to eat prey.
And I’ll have to eat eventually…
But to be honest, it smells fishy, so I’d rather refrain from eating it.
…Can’t you get me some nuts or fruit?
As I was hesitating, for some reason, Mama bit into the prey and tore the meat apart.
She began to chew.
Hmm?
Maybe she’s hungry?
As I was looking up at her like that, Mama suddenly spat out what was in her mouth right in front of me.
Seeing the mixture of meat and saliva, I couldn’t help but let out a cry of “Ugh!” and vomited.
Crying like crazy, I vomited with enough force to empty my stomach.
[Gah!? Gah!?]
My head was somehow cool, and I vomited while feeling sorry for my panicked mom.
Then, my mom hurriedly said, “Gah!” and went outside.
As I watched them leave with vacant eyes, my older brothers came over to me, crying out in worry.
The area around their mouths was dyed bright red.
Moreover, their tongues came out of their mouths and licked my face.
Instantly, everything went white.
Something cold was pressed against my face.
I slowly opened my eyes and saw the face of a woman peering at me.
Huh?
Who is that?
Moreover, it seemed like I was being held by that person.
“–”
The silver-haired person seemed to say something, but I couldn’t understand what it was.
I wonder if it was human language?
As I was thinking about this with my head in a daze, I heard a “gaaah” from next to me.
It was Mama.
Mama was peering at me worriedly.
For no reason, tears started to flow.
Mamaa~ Mamaa~
I got up, staggered over to Mama’s face, and hugged her tightly.
Mama also rubbed her cheek against mine.
After a while, Mama took out a white Fluffy from her body.
What was she doing?
As I watched it while clinging to Mama’s fluffy body, the tip of the white Fluffy took on a shape like a pot.
Then, water started to overflow from the pot, filling it up to 80%.
Huh?
What does that mean?
As I stared wide-eyed, the water began to boil.
The newly created white Fluffy put vegetables and seasonings(?) that it had taken out of a bag near Mama into the water.
Amazing!
The white Fluffy can do more than just grab things!
As I was impressed, the silver-haired woman took out a wooden-looking bowl and spoon from the bag.
Then she started to pour the soup from the white Fluffy’s pot into the bowl with the spoon.
Mama received it with the white Fluffy and brought it to my mouth.
The silver-haired woman stopped and blew on the spoon to cool it down.
Oh, the silver-haired person has pointy ears.
Could she be an elf?
As I was thinking that, the spoon was brought to my mouth.
I timidly put it in my mouth, and it was delicious!
And it warmed my body!
I guess my face unintentionally spread because my mom and the elf sisters, seeing that, also softened in relief.
—
It’s been about five years since I started living with my mom and big brothers.
Five winters have come and gone, so that must be right.
At first, I could only hear [Gau!], but it appears that they were speaking Fenrir language, and I’ve finally started to understand it recently.
Even now, as I’m clinging to mom’s chest, they’re saying [Gau gau] but they’re calling out to me as [Little girl].
[What is it? Mama~]
When I lift my face from mom’s warm and fluffy chest, mom looks at me with gentle eyes.
By the way, the “little girl” is me, and the “big girl” is my older sister.
[Don’t you have to go hunting? Soon you’ll be able to catch some prey yourself, right?]
[No way~]
I dig my face into mommy’s fur and rub it.
Wrapped in the soft spring sunshine and mommy’s warm fur… I’m so happy~
Even so, five winters mean I’m probably five years old.
I don’t want you to take a five-year-old and send him to a hunting ground where there are giant bears, birds, snakes, etc.
And to top it all off, real dragons.
Well, the older boys are estimated to be five years old, but they’re already the size of a minibus, and the older boys have already hunted even a wyvern pseudo-dragon.
Sometimes my older brother tries to play with me, and even though he’s really going easy on me, it still puts his life on the line every time.
I’m Mama’s daughter, but I think that’s too much for a little human girl.
Mama says, “Don’t worry, you can do it,” but I think her expectations are a bit too high.
Far from hunting, there’s even a chance that even if she attacks, she’s too weak to notice.
Besides, I’m so happy being stuck with Mama.
I don’t think I’d want to let that go so I can hunt.
My older brothers ran off happily, though.
As I was dozing off and thinking about such things, I heard a woman’s voice calling “Heyyy” from behind me.
