Chapter 330
Chapter 330 – Chick
Early morning .
At the shrine with the statues of the god of creation and god of farming .
My first impression upon seeing it is a fat bird .
It’s a plumpy fat bird and it doesn’t look like a chick at all .
It’s about the size of a volleyball .
Is it really just hatched?
I wonder if that is really the case .
Next to it is a crushed eggshell .
Red, white, orange, and pink marble patterns . Newly hatched alright .
This is probably the chick hatched from the phoenix egg .
Even though I only displayed it here as a good luck charm, it hatched… .
However, phoenix?
This is completely different from what I’ve imagined .
Its feathers are also pink .
……
Maa, go down from the top of the statue of the god of farming first .
If you poop there, I’ll get angry .
Hearing my words, the chick chirps on the head of the god of farming .
Then, without moving from that spot, it spread its small wing to show them to me .
……
Is that a declaration of not getting down?
… .
Right .
Of course .
I lift the chick using both of my hands and put it down on the ground .
Hahaha .
You’re quite brave but you lack strength .
While listening to the chirps of the frustrated chick, I checked the god of farming’s statue for dirt .
There seems to be no problem .
It just hatched so it probably can’t poop yet .
But here’s the question, how was it able to climb the top of this statue when it just hatched?
Oh, you can fly .
Though it’s slow .
Ah, don’t go up, don’t go up .
I’ll make you a special perch .
When I came back to the mansion with the chick, they were surprised .
Probably .
Though it was a surprise that it hatched, they were not surprised that this is a phoenix’ chick .
Alfred and Tiselle wanted to touch it but before that, I’ll talk to Loo about phoenix and how it grows first .
「Phoenix grows up on its own . 」
Phoenix has a strong vitality . Even if it fast for a hundred years, it will still be okay, and it also has the ability to regenerate .
It looks like it can grow without any special care .
… . .
Is care even necessary?
When it hears me say so, the chick suddenly becomes cute and it looks like it’s flattering me .
What happened to your majesty?
Food is more important than that .

That’s true .
You’ve just hatched it but you already know about it .
No, could it be its instinct?
For the time being, let’s pass this chick to Alfred and Tiselle .
I’ll go and look for something that a chick could eat .
I finally understood the meaning of not taking care of it .
This chick can eat anything .
Do you even know what flavor is?
Pre-harvest rice .
It looks like a sparrow .
Don’t get angry, don’t get angry .
I’ll prepare it properly .
However, if you lay your hands on the field, I’ll get angry .
Do you understand?
All right .
Hnn?
What is it?
When I was thinking about why the spiderlings came in a group, one of them came out in front of the chick .
Perhaps the chick also felt something . It spreads its wings and threatens the spiderling before it .
Then, the battle between the chick and the spiderling began .
I was wondering what’s happening before something came into me .
Birds eat bugs .
……
Uuuoooohhhhh!

Wait a minute!
I was too late .
The spiderling is already in a victory pose while the chick is wrapped with web .
Ah, etto… . . you’re amazing .
Now, release that chick .
Chick .
This is a piece of advice .
Don’t target the spiderlings .
I’ll prepare as much rice as you want .
Spiderlings, you can fight back without hesitation if you are targeted .
However, stop attacking first .
The spiderlings waved their legs to show acknowledgment .
Good good .
What about chick?
Don’t act spoiled .
Here, a cabbage leaf .
You like it… . don’t peck my hand .
Haah .
Chick seemed to have acknowledged too .
I want you to get along peacefully .
Several hours later .
Chick was being chased by the kittens .
Ah…… .

Kittens, wait . I said wait .
Ann, please .
Please tell them to not attack the chick .
The name of the phoenix’ chick was decided .
Aegis .
I suggested Hinako, Feniko, and Fenitaro but they didn’t seem to like them .
***TN: Hina = chick . Feniko and Fenitaro came from phoenix(fenix) . ***
It was decided as Aegis because Alfred’s the one who suggested it .
How did he know that name? It seems like he heard it from ancestor-san’s stories .
Is it a god’s name?
Speaking of which, is this Aegis male or female?
No one knows how to distinguish .
「Once it grows up a little more, its natural feature will show up . 」
I see .
It clings more on Tiselle than Alfred .
It also clings more on Loo and Tier than me… .
… .
Until we exactly know, it is male .
Digression .
When I was building an aviary for Aegis, Loo came over .
「Phoenix feather is a high-class material . Even feather of a chick is fine so don’t throw any away when you’re cleaning . 」
……
Let’s think of this bird as someone who earns its own food .
Yeah .
