About that... he didn't try to sneak off with any food at all.
Usually, he'd be flitting about in bird form and being a nuisance to everyone, but... as you can see, he's been quite the help today.
He was working very seriously!
Just seeing him not in his bird form is already pretty unusual, so... I wonder if something's up?
Hehehe, I only did what was required of me. I can't really do stuff like cooking in my bird form, after all.
That's great and everything, but...
The fact that you're not causing trouble makes me feel uneasy somehow...
He's right, Taishakuten. Karura's turned over a new leaf. You've got to properly tell him he's doing a good job.
You're right, but... you don't do that much, do you, Karura?
But thanks anyways. Even if you're doing this on a whim, it's helping me out.
I'm doing my best, and I'm building up my virtues, but my wings haven't stopped shedding in the least. What if it's too late to do anything?
...The medicine you drank... it will wear off... any moment now....
Then you'll be able... to transform... into your bird form...
Waaah... I'd rather stay like this instead of transforming and finding out I don't have a single feather on my head anymore. I'll just leave the temple in this form.
If I was in Karura's place, I wouldn't want anyone to see my unsightly form either. Let's see him off.
Thank you, Ashuku. But please don't let everyone know the reason for the party. I don't want the fact that I'm balding to get out.
