Chapter 798
Where to find clean sand
“Sand… I suppose that won’t be difficult. But where should the sandbox be built?”
“It cannot be in the middle of the garden.”
It was where Leo, Liza and Sherry played. Also, Tilura and I trained in it as well.
Also, we were planting herbs as part of my research with Weed Cultivation.
Hmm…? Weed Cultivation?
“Uh, I was just wondering… The sand just has to be clean, right?”
“Pii-pii.”
“They say it should be dry and smooth.”
“Hmm. Dry and smooth…”That was easy to understand. It did need anything else inside.
“Do you have an idea?”
“Over there. There was plenty of sand that I didn’t know what to do with.”
“I see… What remains after using Weed Cultivation.”
“Yes. I think we should test it out.”
As plants grew at a ridiculous speed, they absorbed all of the nutrients from the soil.
And this caused something like a small desert to form.
In any case, we all went to the spot, and I took the Cockatrices down from Tilura’s shoulders.
While they looked a little scared, they seemed to realize that this was preferable to being handled by Leo or Rahle, and they quieted down.
“Pi! Pipii!”
“Pipi. Pii!”
“They seem to be having fun.”
“Kii.”
“They like it, papa.”
“Indeed…”
“Wuff-wuff.”
“Kyau?”
“Is there something different about this sand, since it was made with Weed Cultivation?”
“It does not look that different. But perhaps it is related somehow.”
The Cockatrcies immediately started to bathe happily in the sand.
They rubbed it in their feathers… It seemed like it was mostly about drying off and removing bugs.
Leo looked like she wanted to play inside as well. But I stopped her. She could play with Tilura and Liza later.
Sherry was also watching curiously.
“Pii-pii?”
“Pii?”
“Pii! Pii!”
“Hmm? What is it?”
The Cockatrices seemed to be talking as if they just noticed something.
“Ah, that’s…Leo?”
“Wuff?”
“Pii-pii.”
They tried to walk towards the field of herbs.
And so I was about to stop them from going, but then Leo pulled me by the sleeve.
As if to say that it was fine, and that I should watch.
When I looked around, the others seemed worried as well. Only Liza, who understood what they were saying, was fine.
Well, I trusted Leo, and decided to just watch.
“Pi?”
“Pii-pii.”
“Did it eat something…bugs?”
“Wou.”
The Cockatrices moved among the plants and seemed to be pecking at something. And on closed inspection, I saw that it was bugs.
“Now that I think about it…birds do like them… Rahle?”
“Kii!”
“Rahle hates them.”
“I see… Well, the Cockatrices seem to enjoy them.”
“Pii!”
“Pii-pii!”
I watched them run happily around the field and eat the bugs. They were surprisingly helpful.
“Hmm…it is usual for bugs to appear near plants… But they are good at finding ones that would escape the human eye.”
Apparently, the butlers would occasionally help to remove them…
