Chapter 103: What’s the Snake’s Name?

“Koku?”

Koku appeared from beneath the grass and flowers.

“Koku?”

Koku looked around, glancing back and forth, before spotting us.

“So this is the Crystal Cockatrice?”

“Yeah, his name is Koku.”

Charlotte must have heard about him from Douglas. She watched Koku with great interest.

“I managed to make him my familiar, but he dislikes me more and more every day. Now he won’t even come near me.”

Koku kept a certain distance from me, looking up at me intently. His crystal-blue feathers shimmered, and his snake tail moved as he stared.

“In that case, may I try touching him?”

Saying this, Charlotte crouched down and held out her palm toward Koku.

“Come here.”

Her voice alone was so soothing that just listening to it made me feel calm. In response, Koku quickly ran over and jumped into Charlotte’s hand.

“Koku, Koku.”

As she embraced him, Koku buried his face in her chest, and the snake part of his body wrapped around her arm.

I had somewhat expected this outcome.

“You really are incredible…”

Once again, I was reminded of the power of the Boyle family’s Tamer skills.

All my familiars took a liking to her without hesitation.

“That’s not true. Your familiars are just naturally friendly, so I’m simply enjoying the chance to interact with them.”

Watching Charlotte happily surrounded by Feni, Purple, Rock, and Koku, I noticed something.

“Charlotte, your dress is dirty.”

I hadn’t thought about it. Since Feni, Purple, and Koku had been playing in the garden, they had dirt and grass on them, which had now transferred to her dress.

“If I’m playing with familiars, it’s only natural that my clothes get dirty. Don’t you think such a small thing doesn’t matter compared to this happiness?”

She was completely serious. Normally, people—especially nobles—would worry about their clothing. Given the high price of a noble’s dress, getting angry would be expected.

“Well… I guess so…”

I adored my familiars, so I didn’t care about getting dirty. But this was my first time meeting a woman like her.

“Does he like being touched here? Look, tickle, tickle.”

Without noticing my admiration, Charlotte continued playing with Koku.

She stroked his head and tickled the snake’s body.

“He’s very friendly, so I don’t think there’s any problem.”

After letting her play with him for a while, I asked for her opinion on Koku.

Indeed, Koku seemed very attached to Charlotte. He was now curled up on her lap, already drifting off to sleep.

“Koku… Zzz…”

Letting out a contented sigh, Koku slept soundly. Even the snake part of his body yawned as it clung to her arm.

“Maybe I really don’t have any talent as a Tamer…”

After witnessing Charlotte’s skills all day, I started to lose confidence.

“I don’t think that’s true.”

Charlotte tilted her head and reassured me.

“Feni, Purple, and Rock came to me because they don’t see me often. And while I was playing with Koku, he was still aware of you.”

She had been closely observing the familiars. Her ability to sense their subtle emotions must have been a talent she was born with.

“By the way, Klaus, I have a question.”

As I was analyzing the situation, Charlotte tilted her head.

“What is it?”

She pointed at the snake.

“What is the name of this snake part?”
