The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee

Chapter 255 – A Clear Winter Day

The next day was a relaxing one after the whole Jack Frost incident.

In the morning, I awoke, and Moofy, Shiggy, Femm, and I all went to the kitchen, where Vi-Vi was standing with full snow gear on.

A thick leather hat, with thick leather mittens on her hands.

A warm looking coat on and a scarf around her neck, with water-proof and expensive looking boots on her feet.

「Vi-Vi, where do you plan to go?」

「I was just thinking of going out of a bit.」

If she was going out, that probably meant snow removal.

I should help her then.

「After breakfast, I’ll help too.」

「Really? They hurry up and eat.」

She said, and Vi-Vi patted Moofy.

It must feel good to have those thick mittens on.

「MOoo moo moo moo」

Moofy happily stuck her nose into Vi-Vi’s side.

「Oh yeah, I made something for Shiggy so she won’t get cold.」

She said, and took out a little dragon coat.

「Thanks, can I?」

「Go ahead. I make stuff like this when I have free time.」

She told me she had made it the night when I had gone up against all those Jack Frosts.

It was very well made even if it was only over a night.

Vi-Vi had a lot of skill in sewing too.

「Wow, thank you!」

「ryaa! Ryaa!」

Shiggy cried out happily as well, and bowed to Vi-Vi.

「Don’t worry about it.」

Saying this, Vi-Vi patted Shiggy’s head.

Then Collette came in.

Collette had some heavy snow gear on too...as much as Vi-Vi.

「Good morning, old man!」

「Are you going out too, Collette?」

「Yeah, how about you, old man?」

「Yeah, as soon as I finish breakfast.」

「Yaaay!」

Collette looked really happy to hear that.

「Let’s go, sthub-bossth!」

「Sure. Al, hurry up, okay?」

She said, and the two went out.

I then fed Shiggy while eating myself.

Femm and Moofy also ate.

「Eat everything you two.」

「Wuff?」

「Moo moo」

On the other hand, Moofy and Femm had horse coats on them.

「If you don’t like them, you can take them off?」

『Don’t worry about that, it’s warm.』

「Moo moo」

Femm and Moofy actually liked the coats.

「Let’s put this on you, Shiggy.」

「ryaa ryaa」

I put on the coat that Vi-Vi had made for Shiggy.

It was a thick coat with a hood. There were holes for the wings and tail as well.

It made Shiggy look super cute. I wanted to show Timi.

「ryaa」

Shiggy looked at it happy.

With the animals all bundled up, we went outside.

Collette shouted over to us.

「Ollllld maaaan, come heeeere!」

「Al, we’re waiting.」

The two had made a big snowman.

They had rolled up a huge snowball.

They were rolling a smaller one over to it.

That had to be the head of the snowman.

「Wait, what about clearing the snow?」

「We did that yesterday!」

「Yeah! Play day! Play day!」

「ryaa ryaa!」

Shiggy happily flew up on top of the snow ball.

「You look good with that coat, Shiggy! It fits you perfectly!」

「Ryaa!」

「Shiggy’s really happy about it. Thanks.」

「it’s my pleasure.」

After that, we finished up making the snowman.

「Moo moo」

Moofy pushed the other snowball towards the big one.

All the wolves had gathered around Femm.

「Wuff!」

「Wuff wuff」「Wuff!」

They all seemed to like Femm’s coat.

Femm looked pretty proud of it. It’s tail was straight, standing like a true magic wolf king.

「wiff」「wiff wiff wiff!」

The little pups gathered around.

「ryaa!」

From the top of the snow ball, Shiggy flew over to the pups.

They were all rolling around, covered in snow.

Seeing this, Collette said, 「Old man, can you put the head on top?」

「Sure.」

It was very heavy.

I made it lighter with gravity magic and put it on the bigger ball.

「Wow, old man!」

Collette clapped her hands happily.

「Ah, the sub boss!」

「It’s so huge!」「What a snow man!」

All the kids in Mulg had gathered together.

Lately, they hadn’t been able to play outside after days of blizzards.

They were happy to finally get out.

「Play with us, sub-boss!」

「I guess I have to.」

Then Vi-Vi said, 「Al! Let’s have a snowball fight!」

「Sure.」

「Yay! Come on old man!」

Vi-Vi, Collette, and all the other kids started throwing snowballs.

Shiggy and the pups watched the snowballs fly left and right.

They all jumped up and down trying to bite the flying snowballs.

It was very cute, and I felt myself smiling.

「ryabb」「kyab」

Shiggy and a pup got hit by a snowball.

I thought they would cry, but they were fine with it. Shiggy and the pups had grown so much, after all.

Maybe because they were hit by snowballs, Shiggy and all the pups laughed about it and bounced around.
