On the second day of the birth ceremony, Elia’s family also visited.
“This is… I heard it from Elia, but I almost didn’t recognize you.”
[Haha, my hair color has changed a bit]
That was the first thing Elia’s father, Brian Sreyd, said when he saw .
“Not only your hair, but your appearance has changed too. Oh, in a good way, of course! Even back then, you were already so pretty, but now you really look like you ca out of a fairy tale book.”
[Embarrassed]
[Thank you for the complint…]
Next to him, Elia’s mother, Ayla Sreyd, clapped her hands and smiled playfully.
I smiled awkwardly and stroked the ends of my hair.
The first and last ti I t Elia’s family was during the first sester tournant.
If you only heard about through words, it would have been awkward to see my hair turn white as if it had shed its fur.
“Wow…”
“Eyes?”
“… … ”
The children imdiately looked at my hair with sparkling, curious eyes, which was proof of that.
They were so cute, huddled together like baby chicks under my legs.
Two of them were sparkling, and one of them seed indifferent but curious.
“It’s so white…! It’s like the snow in the yard!”
“Wow! It’s softer than Mom’s hair!”
When I plopped down on the sofa, the children sat down next to and played with my hair. It was so awkward to see them open their mouths in wonder.
“The kids… Don’t make things difficult for them and co here.”
[No, it’s okay. I like being with Elia’s siblings too.]
I waved my hand at Ayla’s embarrassed, trying to stop the children. Fortunately, he didn’t pull my hair or anything, so I didn’t have to worry.
“So, Elia, why are you upset?”
“What am I upset about?”
“Look at the sharpness at the end of your words. You don’t plan on hiding it, do you? You’re subtly revealing it and advertising it to to get over your upset? You’ve been sly since you were little…”
“Oh! When did I!”
Elia, sitting across from , twitches and quips with Ayla, unlike usual.
Now that I think about it, I heard last ti that Elia was so active when she was young that she got into a lot of accidents.
I also heard that the person who knocked over a thousand-year-old tree in her hotown was Elia.
The usual… gentle and kind atmosphere was so familiar, so seeing Elia like that felt awkward and new.
While I was feeling that strange, Elia, who had been grumbling to Ayla, suddenly looked this way.
“Huh.”
“What the?”
After giving her a blank stare for a mont, she quickly turned her gaze away.
… Listening to Ayla, it was clear that she was clearly showing her dissatisfaction.
‘Huh?’
As I shrugged my shoulders because of my sin, I suddenly felt a gaze staring at from below.
The child who had taken the seats on either side of … Adela was blinking and looking up at from under the sofa.
‘Oh my…’
The gaze felt burdenso. My shoulders trembled for no reason at the gaze that seed to ask where my seat was.
Adela seed to be thinking for a mont with an indifferent look, then suddenly stretched out both arms to .
I naturally put my hands between my armpits, lifted her up, and hugged her.
“Oh my?”
[Ah]
And a beat later, I ca to my senses when I t Ayla’s exclamation.
Since Seoyul always stretched out her arms to ask for a hug, and I held her in my arms, I developed a habit.
- Busus
Adela calmly adjusted herself to a comfortable position in my arms.
As I was flustered and blinked, Ayla, who was sitting on the sofa across from , covered her mouth with her hand in surprise.
“Adela isn’t the type of child who asks to be hugged first?”
[Is… that so?]
“Yes… I rarely do that…”
Ayla stared at Adela in my arms with a shocked expression. Adela turned her head at the gaze that seed to be faintly betrayed.
Slap! The shock on Ayla’s face grew even bigger.
“… Raising two daughters is useless.”
[Eom…]
.
.
.
For that reason, since Elia and I didn’t have any plans on the second day, we decided to take care of Adela for a little while.
No matter how much the two of you corrected it, it would be difficult to take care of three children at once in a crowded festival.
“Hmm… What should I do to kill ti~”
Elia muttered to herself as she looked at the hologram map.
The map was updating the schedule and locations of events currently in progress and events that were about to start.
‘… … ’
I looked at the hologram map with Elia and made a bashful expression.
It’s not that I was dissatisfied with the performance earlier. Rather, the dance moves that were almost like magic tricks were definitely sothing to see.
I was a little indifferent because I perceived it as information, but Elia and Adela were quite interested and watched it.
But…
[Elia, how about putting the child in the middle?]
“Yes?”
Elia tilted her head at my question, looking at the hologram map.
[In case Adela falls…]
I watched her closely and shook Elia’s hand that was holding mine.
Right now, Elia was holding my hand and Adela’s hand. It was as if she was holding the two children tightly so that they wouldn’t go astray.
I just felt a little strange and awkward about it.
‘Usually, don’t you put the child in the middle…?’
That’s right. I know that when two adults and one child walk, the child is usually put in the middle.
Of course, that doesn’t happen because I put up a defensive spell, and Elia knows that too… but isn’t there such a thing as appearance?
“Hmm?”
Elia tilted her head at my opinion. It seed like she didn’t understand what I was saying.
Elia blinked and turned her head to the other side for a mont.
Adela was quietly holding Elia’s hand and munching on cotton candy with her other hand.
Elia turned her head to again and stared down at with a strange expression.
“One child? It looks like two to .”
My shoulders hunched involuntarily at the gaze looking down at from above. The position of the light was so exquisite that Elia’s shadow fell on …
[… Negation]
“What’s the negation? Rather, Harul seems more like a child, so I’m quietly holding his hand.”
[Negation… Buaeae]
- Buaeaeae
Huh- Elia snorted, poking my lips, then holding my hand again and walking away.
In the end, it seed like she had no intention of changing places, so I quietly held his hand.
‘What should I do… ’
I walked around the street holding hands with Elia.
At the sa ti, I stroked her round hand and thought about how to relieve her tantrum.
Actually, there was nothing else I could do. I had no experience in this area, and no plausible solution ca to mind.
Thinking about it, I could have been relieved. No, it seed like a normal reaction to be relieved.
On the first day of the birth festival, it was Elia who showed such… expectations.
But even though I rembered that, I was swept up in the atmosphere and impulsively did sothing like that to Professor Riana…
[Complicated]
I tried to use my own tricks to relieve Elia’s tantrum here and there, but Elia only wavered for a mont and teased my lips again with her sharp teasing.
I tried to take a deep breath, but then I thought of Adela sitting next to and swallowed my sigh.
Right now, I’m sitting on the bench next to Adela, waiting for Elia, who has left for a mont.
Even so, it’s a bit weird to sigh deeply in front of a child.
[Are you okay?]
As I was racking my brain, a hologram appeared in front of my nose.
Adela, sitting next to , tapped her smartwatch while eating a snack.
[When my sister is upset, she shows it to others and resolves it on her own]
[I don’t know what she’s upset about, but I’m still helping her resolve it, so it’ll be over soon]
Tadadak- Her fingers moved dazzlingly and updated the contents of the hologram.
[Oh… is that so?]
I checked the text on the hologram and felt a strange sense of relief.
Adela is Elia’s younger sister. She must have been with much longer than , so I felt a sense of trust.
At the sa ti, I made a strange expression at Adela tapping her smartwatch dazzlingly.
‘… Adela was born with a weak body.’
Of course, her condition has improved a lot with the help of various treatnts, but she still has difficulty speaking.
“?”
He lightly placed his hand on Adela’s neck. Adela tilted her head, but showed no signs of resistance.
‘If it were normal, this child could have used the Confession Necklace…’
The Confession Necklace was originally a legacy from Elia’s family, inherited from her grandfather.
Of course, even back then, they had prepared for any unexpected situations.
He said he had it as an ergency fund, but if it didn’t work out, Adela would have worn it and used it.
However, for whatever reason, Adela could no longer use this necklace because I showed up.
So Adela had to talk to others so uncomfortably until now.
If you can’t speak, your daily life is uncomfortable. I realized it only after I lost my voice once.
Beyond that inconvenience, it’s really sad that people who share affection can’t share their voices.
Even though my voice isn’t perfect, I feel a little guilty for using the necklace of confession that was ant for Adela.
Plus, I’m grateful to Elia’s family for giving this necklace, no matter how much of a benefactor they are.
‘Hmm…’
He placed his hand gently on Adela’s neck and focused his mind.
Sensing through senses and magic. And observing using power.
If you combine the two, you can accurately determine a person’s physical condition without any errors.
Adela's condition was a physical problem, as I heard. In short, it's not the kind of curse-like ability that blocks the phenonon.
'Homogeneity.'
An extended ability that can especially well imitate the unique abilities of attributes and special series.
However, just like how I imitated the horn of a unicorn, homogeneity can affect the actual body if practiced.
If I further refine the extended ability there...
'Hmm...'
I racked my brain for a mont. I made predictions based on the information I had gathered. Likelihood of occurrence, probability of success, risk...
[Still, if you want to relieve your sister's anger more definitely and quickly, I have a good way for you.]
That was when.
Adela glanced at my hand on her neck and tapped her smartwatch.
[A good way?]
I asked back without realizing it as I was concentrating.
[Yes, that's the way my sister likes.]
Adela nodded.
[… Really?]
[Yes, really]
Aside from her indifferent face, her attitude sohow radiated confidence, which made my ears perk up.
[… This is it?]
And soon she made a bashful expression.
[Yes, you’ll definitely like it]
However, Adela pointed to sothing on sale at the stall and thumped her chest as if to tell to trust her, as if she had so kind of solid evidence.
[Euuum…]
She made a bashful expression for a mont, but then changed her mind.
No matter what, I still had to relieve Elia of her frustration caused by my mistake.
Rather than thinking strange thoughts and putting them into practice on my own, it would be better to get my younger brother’s support and do them…
In the end, I made up my mind and reached out my trembling hands.
