After asking Eric, Iris found a bag of grain as a gift for Gray, and even used a rope to tie the bag of grain to its short neck so it could carry it back to eat.
At lunch, Leo and the beastman cubs making unburnt bricks at the kiln came to the cafeteria. It happened that Eric hadn't left yet. One by one, seeing Gray waddling behind Eric, their eyes lit up, and they rushed over to touch it all over.
Fortunately, Gray's mouth had been tied beforehand.
Eric looked sympathetically at the chick surrounded by the cubs. He saw it widening its round eyes, panic-stricken and wanting to run away, but it was tightly surrounded by a group of cubs, with countless small hands and small claws touching it everywhere.
Even so, Gray didn't try to use its tied sharp beak to attack. Its wings could move freely, but it also restrained itself from moving them; otherwise, it could have flapped a few children away.
