Year 7446, Month 4, Day 28
In front of the fence that surrounds the house theres a large stable and on the other side of theres plaza that also acts as the training place for the squires. Even further in on the other side of the plaza is three storehouses that have been there since before I was born. From a position where we can see the plaza on the left side of the stable is the main building of the house that hasnt changed at all. In the back of the main building there should be the small storage room that I lived in for a period connected to it. Beyond that in between the storehouses and storage room is a bit of a plaza and that acts as the training place for the squire children under 10 years old to swing their swords. How nostalgic.
What the, if youre going to co ho you should say sothing. We havent prepared anything.
Brother said that while smiling and welcoming . It seems when he was patrolling around in the village he caught sight of us and ca running back on his horse. He detoured around the gate of the house and waited for us.
Sorry, brother. But, I wanted to return once now while I still could. Theres sothing I want to talk to father and mother about as well.
I exchanged greetings with brother while putting my horse into the stables.
People ca out of the house as well. Its father and mother. The two of them were smiling. I left Angela to take off the harness while I approached my parents with big steps accompanied by Miduchi and Gwine.
Ive heard from everyone. Youre Chizumagurol-san right?
Mother smiled seeing Miduchi.
Shes grown a bit as well I see.
Has this child been causing any trouble for you?
No way! Ive always been in his care. Also, the other day Shanleid-sama and Milhaia-sama even prepared armor for ..
It looks good on you..{Status Open}.
Mother took Miduchis hand and smiled while checking her status.
I guess its no longer necessary, to introduce her.
U..Umm, M..My na is Gullinel.Akdam. Im always in the care of Al-san~
..Why are you biting your tongue.
While we were exchanging harmonious greetings, an ear-splitting high voice echoed around ruining the atmosphere.
Becky-sama!!!
Its the voice of a boy.
Uwaa~n!! Big brother hit seriously again~! Ill tell father on you!!
I made a bitter smile while asking my parents, Just now was that Zetto and Becky?
The first voice was Al. Those kids, no matter how many tis we tell them they start doing make-believe practice matches all on their own. Unlike you kids theyre hopeless prankster brats. No, I guess Mill was like that as well huh?
Father said while shrugging his shoulders. Al? Al is..Ailad huh! Co to think of it he was the sa age as Zetto and Becky. Though I say that they should still be 6 years old. Have they already started training with the sword? Ah, No, in the past, since I said great-grandfather gave advice around when Mill was 5 years old, so I guess theyre still continuing thatIsnt that my fault.
Sister was intense but I think she properly obeyed the things she was told.
Rembering my respected older sisters pitiful chest I felt just a bit bad so I defended her.
Father-in-law, mother-in-law, Im truly very sorry..
Sister-in-law Shani was making an apologetic expression while lowering her head deeply. She must be feeling responsibility. Co to think of it I rember hearing that when sister-in-law Shani was in the knight group she was quite arrogant as well. That, isnt it sister-in-laws genes?
I can hear the breathing from the horses that were pulling the carriage. We were forgetting about the congestion of the three carriages we left near gate. We keep the carriages parked in the area between the stable and the fence. The squires were making bitter smiles. After lowering her sister-in-law starting leading the horses and carriages. Since the carriages were almost completely empty, while we were standing around right near the entrance of the gate the squires were untying the carriages from the horses. A carriage thats close to empty can be pulled with just human power.
Asking the squires that started putting the horses in the stable, Angela who finished putting away the harnesses ca forward and knelt in front of my parents to greet them.
It has been a while, great master.
Father calmly nodded as Angela turned to mother to greet her as well.
Its nice to et you, great madam. Im my master Alan Greed-samas combat slave, Maruso.Angela. Pleased, to et you.
Its fine if you dont humble yourself that much in our household. Im Shirley. Shirley.Greed. Call Shal.
However, Angela just said, I understand. without changing her posture and then stood up as politely as possible before taking one step behind while keeping her head lowered without making eye contact.
Umu, thats good, Angela. Its a greeting that shows youve properly been disciplined. Mother is saying sothing like that but its not that sort of problem. As expected of her having spent several years by my side. Mother might just be a madam that lives in a remote region now but in the past she was in a position where she was the grandchild of Duke Sandak in the capital. She should be used to seeing slaves that were properly disciplined. Father is nodding to himself as well.
..Nn? I guess its just a bit big huhWell, I guess thats just right for now..
Father whispered while looking at .
Excluding the fact that the new model of rubber protectors that sister-in-law Shani brought were just a bit big, they fit perfectly on my body. Just in case I also brought along my old suit as well. Since my old protectors were a just right match to the physique of Jesu (Jesutasu.Manzokki), I took his sizes intending to request so small adjustnts.
Thats right! Thanks, father. This armor, I really like it.
I forgot to say thanks to father for treating to the protectors I received. Even though it should have been the first thing I said.
Nn..It looks good on you. By the way, whats going on today? Did sothing happen?
Ha ha, its not like anything has happened but it was just stopping by for a bit when I ca to fulfill a promiseAlso, so boots, I thought Id like to make so proper ones for all of my allies and slavesThats right, its about this though. Ah, Yeah, Ill convey the improvents for them and Im sure itll take a reasonable amount of labor but I think they could be sold for a high price as a new type of military boots. A shoe maker, you hired one rightAlso, I saw Kerrys wifes armor last year but I thought that model might be good for adventurers as well. I thought if I used this Angela, since shes a Dog-person, she might be just right for making adjustnts to the model.
..I cant trick them with this sort of excuse.
..Right now, were stepping foot on the 8th floor on the dungeon in BaldukkAnd, weve got good prospects for making it to the 9th floor. However, whether or not we can make it, whether we can surpass his majesty George Rombert the First or not, I dont know. It feels like its just~ a bit dangerous as well. I intend to take responsibility and protect my allies and slaves with all of my power. I wont let even a single person die. Of course, I have no intention of dying even more so. But..But, I just wanted to see everyones faces once more now when I could.
Mothers hand twitched as if she was going to embrace . But, she pulled it back right away.
Rebekkana..Hey~ why are you that strange color?
This brat~! Dont say things like that to my woman, shell get depressed!
Faster than I could reflexively glare at Becky sister-in-law who was in between the two kids slapped Becky. As expected of a Webdos Knight. That was beyond just having fast hands.
Hey!! What kind of things are you saying this child!! Apologize to Miduchi-san!!
Bugyaaa~!! I..Im schhai~ii~! Immsshowwry! U~uuhikku
No..No way! Its fine! I dont mind it! It cant be helped..Im sure you were surprised right? Im sorry for surprising you, Rebekkana-chan.
Miduchi was the one who got a lot more flustered and she quickly ran over to Becky to wipe her tears as with a handkerchief as she cried in a loud voice. Father, mother, and brother all apologized to Miduchi as well. Even Sonia who prepared the food and was bringing it ended up doing her job with an apologetic face.
Zetto was peeking out from behind sister-in-law Shanis back to get a better look as it was his first ti seeing a dark elf. I couldnt do anything but make a bitter smile on my own but honestly speaking, I felt a bit sorry as well.
After the uproar cald down, we properly exchanged greetings and everyone sat down at the table. After all it seems that Zetto and Becky were curious about the dark elf as they were glancing at Miduch occasionally. Every ti Miduchi noticed she would smile. Sorry about that. At the very least Im sure it wasnt a good feeling.
While having dinner(obviously it wasnt anything luxurious but it seems the nu was improved quite a bit) we talked about various things. About sister, our adventures in the dungeon, and then baldoggie. It seems that the baldoggie father ate when he ca last year was conveyed with quite a bit of exaggeration added to it. This ti, we had sister-in-law eat it as well but she made just a slightly complicated face, even then she said it was good but I still felt sothing was a bit strange, so thats what it was.
It seems Zetto and Becky got used to Miduchi while we were having dinner and they started badgering her for stories about the dungeon and Baldukk. By the ti we realized it the ti had passed 6 pm. It seems that today is the day for won to enter the bath so sister-in-law Shani told the kids(In Bakuddo up until they formally started training with the sword or farm work at 7 years old, both boys and girls are put into the baths every day) to go and get ready to enter the baths and invited mother and Miduchi as well. Miduchi was looking forward to the baths as well so obviously theres no way shed turn it down. Becky seed to want to go to the baths while holding Miduchis hand so Miduchi happily held her hand as they left.
Probably Gwine and Angela should be going to the baths about now as well. Theres no way Gwine would miss her chance at the baths and I already told them that in Bakuddo even slaves enter the baths so Angela shouldnt hold back either.
After father, brother, and I took showers in order, we were drinking so alcohol.
Are Zetto and Becky properly using magic?
Close 1.5 years has passed since the two of them started magic training. Zettos MP is 318 and Beckys MP is 330 with just a small difference but judging from the fact that they have a considerable amount I can already tell theyre training properly. It seems Zetto can use earth and water while Becky can use fire, water, and wind. Their skill levels have already reached 3.
Yeah, theyre doing well. They have a high amount of mana after all. Their growth is fast as well.
Brother said that while nodding.
Its good that the two of them seem to be blessed with talent. Were properly having them train with the sword as well. If its possible then wed like for both of them enter the first knight group.
Father said that in a good mood while tilting his alcohol cup filled with premium vodka I bought in the capital.
