As they were walking ho from school, chatting away as usual, they suddenly noticed sothing.
The Door that Illuna and the others used to return to the dungeon was built very close to Eldogalia and Emyuu’s house.
In other words, they always see that house on their way ho… and now there was a light on.
“Oh… the light is on” (Illuna)
“Are they back?” (Shii)
“…Shall we say hello?” (Enne)
“Let’s do that!” (Illuna)
They headed to the front door of the house and pressed the doorbell magic tool that was placed there. A voice said, “Yes…” from inside and the front door slid open.
“Everyone!” (Emyuu)
It was Emyuu who ca out, and it seed that she had returned.
“Emyuu! You’re back!” (Shii)
“It’s been a while!” (Illuna)
“…Emyuu, it’s been a while. How are you?” (Enne)
“It’s been a while, everyone! I can’t say I’m fine… I’m a bit tired, as expected.” (Emyuu)
Just as she said, Emyuu’s expression showed so fatigue, and she didn’t seem to be in good spirits.
“Oh dear, was the field research that hard?” (Illuna)
“No, it’s been a series of misses, with barely any progress… Even my master is having trouble with it, it’s a pretty tough ruin.” (Emyuu)
“…what about master?” (Enne)
“She went to the academy to report on various things. –Oh, and I might need to go and ask Layla and Demon Lord for a request. I’d be happy if you could tell them in advance.” (Emyuu)
“A request, to both of them?” (Illuna)
“To the Master and Layla?” (Shii)
“…I wonder what it is?” (Enne)
Seeing the three tilt their heads in unison, Emyuu’s expression sohow softened a little and she gave a detailed explanation.
???
“–Exploring ruins?” (Yuki)
“Yes! It’s proving difficult to make progress right now, so Emyuu wants Big Brother and Big Sister Layla to help out if possible. But she said it must be hard raising a child, so she doesn’t want you to push yourselves too hard.” (Illuna)
“It seems like it’s tough right now!” (Shii)
“…Emyuu was tired too.” (Enne)
Illuna and the others said this as they put down their bags after coming ho from school.
“Not just Layla, but too?” (Yuki)
“That’s what she said. If they are asking for big brother’s help as well, maybe they found so strong monsters…?” (Illuna)
“But it didn’t seem like that!” (Shii)
“Hmm… It might be a difficult matter, but it didn’t seem like high-priority stuff.” (Yuki)
“Hmm… Well, you can just ask her directly. You seem to have so spare ti!” (Layla)
“Just because I have spare ti doesn’t an I’m always free.” (Yuki)
“You are unemployed at this ti!” (Lefi)
“I’ve been unemployed for a long ti. Except when I was emperor.” (Yuki)
“Unemployed or emperor, that’s a bit extre.” (Nell)
The wives took care of Riou and Sakuya while giving so quips.
These wives… they were so skilled!
They have incredible multitasking skills…
“Layla, what about you?” (Yuki)
“If the Master wants my help, I’d like to help if I can. But I also need to cook and take care of these two babies…” (Layla)
“Ah, it will be fine. We can now cook a little. Even if you have to be away for a long ti, we’ll figure things out, so don’t worry about it. Right, Lyuu?” (Lefi)
“Yes. We’re mothers too, so it’d be pathetic to always rely on Layla. I’m going to work on my cooking skills. We also have Nell, who’s a good cook.” (Lyuu)
“…Thank you, both of you. That’s right, I don’t have to worry about leaving it all to the two of you now.” (Layla)
“Yuki, Eldogalia has been taking care of in many ways. It doesn’t matter whether you’re here or not, so make sure you help out.” (Lefi)
“You’re quite the one to talk to your husband. But I agree that we are indebted to her. I’ll go and hear what they want our help with.” (Yuki)
