081 – Stray cat or house cat # 4

“Dad! Naruto is back home! Oh wow… ! Because the house is spacious, Naru’s voice echoes like a cave… ! Naru is no longer a back alley, but a princess of a cluttered mansion?”

dismissal time.

Suddenly, Naru came to the house.

Today, babysitter Sifnoy seemed to have done her job well.

When Naru saw Cecily staying at the mansion, she raised her hand.

“Cecily!”

“Naru!”

Warak-Children hugging each other.

I had felt it for a long time, but the relationship between Naru and Cecily was quite good.

… Is it because they are sisters?

No, the sisters I know are on the lesser side.

Even if it’s not to the extent of killing and saving each other like Brigitte’s sisters.

Is it because they don’t know that they are sisters yet?

Or, unlike men’s brothers, do sisters have a softness like a unicorn’s dream garden?

While those thoughts were biting their tails, Naru said.

“Cecily, why didn’t you come to school today!”

“I had to find my dad and mom.”

“I see! Thanks to that, Naru even ate Cecily’s chocolate milk! Are you not going to school tomorrow? Banana milk is served for lunch tomorrow. Oh wow… ! Then Naru’s two banana milk!”

Naru, this guy.

To have a couple of banana milk, I naturally insisted on my friend’s skipping.

Who do you resemble to be so shrewd?

I don’t know, but I didn’t think I was.

Because I am a good and good person

It probably resembles Brigitte, who is believed to be Naru’s mother.

That’s a story that makes sense.

“So Cecily, did you find Dad and Mom?”

“no! at all! Maybe I really need to skip tomorrow too! I have something I must tell my mom and dad before spring is over, what should I do? I just remembered this yesterday!”

Cecily seemed to recall something from yesterday’s commotion.

Naru also often recalls memories as if it were a trigger while going through something.

Cecily seemed to have been the same.

“Cecily, we need to find Mom and Dad quickly. Otherwise… .”

Kwok – Cecily clenched her fist.

Soon, the boy started to hold tears in his blue eyes and burst into tears.

“Ah, Cecily why are you crying!”

“I don’t know! Tears just come out! We need to find Mom and Dad quickly!”

Perhaps trying to comfort the crying Cecily, Naru stroked her back.

Seeing that, Sifnoi said.

“Yuda-sama, it means that you shouldn’t make your child cry… !”

“Did I make you cry?”

“Seeing Judas-sama’s snake-like, deadly face, it is natural for children to cry… ! Even the nymphs that Sifnoi knows are afraid of Juda-sama’s face… !”

… This baby.

Aren’t you telling your story as if it were someone else’s?

It was then.

Naru, who was comforting Cecily, also burst into tears.

“Come to think of it, Naru also needs to find her mother… ! Naru was just playing too much… ! Naru, if you don’t find your mother… , The world is dangerous… !”

It was very upsetting.

The kids are crying and tearing each other apart, what should I do?

If it was me in the future, would I have coped well with this situation?

I don’t know!

The kids are crying, the nymph is making noise, and I feel like I’m going to go crazy too!

“Keeek… !”

I clung to the ceiling screaming in unbearable shock and horror!

Backwards!

At some point, I had a habit of hanging upside down like this when I felt agitated!

Seeing this, Cecily was startled.

“The hanging from the ceiling that you can do when you have mastered the aristocratic gait perfectly? Thief Judas, how could you do that?”

I don’t know what, but I stopped crying.

I don’t know what hanging from the ceiling has to do with nobles, though.

I came down to the floor with a calm mind and said.

“Actually, I am more polite than anyone else. I also went to college.”

I ended up dropping out because I fell into a manhole or a wormhole while eating ice cream.

I was kind of a college student.

To be honest, you’d be in the average top 5% of the intellectuals on the continent of Pangea?

“… Are you saying that Yuda graduated from college? This sifnoi is unbelievable… ! It is clear that this is a lie… ! It is clear that Yuda-nim must not have even received elementary education… !”

“You Sifnoy bastard, you say this very quickly.”

“Then you show proof… ! I’m talking about the answer to 235252 times 23125… ! If Yuda-sama went to college, this would be a quick answer… !”

No, what does that have to do with college?

I was a liberal arts student.

But the answer was quick.

“4325526.”

I don’t know if it’s correct or not.

I just took it.

However, it was fast enough to be the only agility 20 on the continent of Pangea.

It seemed that Sifnoy was shocked.

“Eh, such a quick calculation… !”

Apparently, even Sifnoy didn’t know the answer.

Anyway, with this feeling, I was able to prove that I was a university graduate.

Then Cecily’s blue eyes, brightened from crying, sparkled.

“university… . Thinking about it, it reminds me of what my dad said he went to college too… !”

“Right.”

* * *

I entered the Doll’s House, the mansion of the Ragdoll family.

Viscount Regdol, who was sweeping the garden, was startled when he saw me.

He said immediately, sweeping his chest.

“I thought it was a robber who suddenly showed up.”

“After all, I am worse than a robber. It would be better to reinforce the mansion’s security a bit more for the old man’s old age.”

“Worse than a robber. Don’t talk like that. Prince Yuda, you are the benefactor who gave us news of our daughter and granddaughter. So what are you doing today?”

The old man looked around.

Then I called the maid and was going to prepare something like tea or refreshments, but I shook my head and decided to just briefly talk about my business.

“I came to talk about Cecily. You know Cecily didn’t go to school today, right?”

“Yeah, since I got a call from the school… .”

Most of the children attending Graham Academy were children of aristocrats, merchants, and conglomerates.

It goes without saying that if you miss a day at school, your guardian will be contacted.

The old people must have already noticed that Cecily skipped school.

─Meow-.

─whyohong-.

Then two long-haired cats rubbed their cheeks against the viscount’s leg.

Was it a foster cat?

As I was thinking about that, the old viscount said.

“It is said that even animals like cats notice whether they are being loved or not. Well, the kids are even more so. Maybe Cecily was like that too.”

“Cecile?”

“It is also true that I have not cared about Cecily since my granddaughter Garrot returned. I couldn’t help but care about my dead daughter and her granddaughter… . Perhaps Cecily felt uneasy. That’s probably why they’re trying to find Mom and Dad.”

indeed.

Even the old Viscount seemed to have his own years of life.

You seem to have a pretty good idea of how things are going.

“But, Cecily is already our family that we cannot separate from. I don’t know how he will feel… . Everyone was pampering. But after all, I can’t be like my real parents… .”

It was a self-made inspiration with a bitter smile.

But I thought a little differently.

“You probably think of them as family.”

It’s very likely that they’re actually family.

And Cecily must have liked this old couple.

You came to this mansion even though you lost a lot of memories because you were swept away by time-space magic.

He must have made a lot of good memories in this mansion.

Of course, I didn’t say such a story because I thought I would have to explain it complicatedly.

“Anyway, I’m here to tell you that Cecily will be sleeping over at our junkyard today. Don’t worry too much, I’ll send it back later.”

“Right. Then don’t worry. Is Garot staying at the mansion? Lately, Garot has been a little reluctant to stay in this mansion. It’s been days since you didn’t come in.”

“Is that so?”

I thought Garot was staying here and living a luxurious life.

It seems that it wasn’t all that.

“Maybe it was because of the experience of living in the land of Barbaria, it seemed that the mansion was cramped. If it was like that, I wish I could quit hunting and live comfortably here.”

It was a wonderful story.

Viscount Ragdoll is rumored to be rich even in Phrygia.

It would take at least a few generations to use up that wealth.

However, Garot seemed to have kicked off such a blessing.

“They say you have to chase a demon… . The devil who killed his mother and sister… . They seemed to say that they had to avenge them.”

“I think I heard it too.”

“But demons are a fearsome breed, aren’t they? Prince Yuda, who is called a hero after defeating the demon king, must be familiar with it. Frankly, I don’t want Garot, the daughter of Lyone, to be associated with the devil anymore. I heard that they will leave this city after the devil… .”

indeed.

It seems that the granddaughter, whom he barely got to know, is afraid that he is leaving the city in pursuit of a terrifying demon.

Even if it were me, I’d be worried if Naruna or Cecily said they were chasing demons.

* * *

“Yuda, I think I will have to stay up all night at school today for the midterm exam. Dinner is roughly made with leftovers from the party, so eat it yourself.”

Back at the mansion, the note was stuck on the table.

It seems that Brigitte stopped by the mansion and went back to school.

Being a member of society is busy.

Midterm exam… .

“… Midterm exam?”

Come to think of it, I’ve never seen Naru prepare for midterm exams.

As I was thinking about that, I heard a thud.

When I went out to the entrance of the mansion, I saw Garot, who had put a lot of heavy-looking bags on the red carpet in the lobby, looking around.

“Wizard… , where is Brigitte? I came to know information about imp. We have finished investigating where the imps are and how they are living.”

“Oh, yes? That’s great.”

“As long as I hand over the information, my contract with Brigitte is now over.”

“That’s right. What is that burden?”

There were a lot of heavy loads.

Garrot, who took a quick look at his bag, said nothing.

“I am leaving this city today. If you help me find the imp, then my role is over. Some say they saw the trail of the demon I was chasing in Danehall, the city of urban hunters.”

Are you leaving this city?

If it’s Danehall, how far away is the city from here?

Rather than that, today.

“Aren’t you in too much of a hurry?”

“Can not help it. Danehall is the far west end of this Phrygia. Even if you board an airship, it will take at least a month. If you can’t board the airship heading to Danehall today, you’ll have to throw away at least two months. The devil might go somewhere else in the meantime.”

It was a reasonable story.

But if Garot leaves the Principality of Phrygia, it means that I can’t make Cecily with me.

Then what would happen to Cecily?

Question marks filled my head.

First of all, the important thing is to tie the garot here.

“great. Even if you go, how about having a glass of wine? Among the guests yesterday was the grandson of the duke. In return for protecting him, I got a pretty rare vintage.”

“… … .”

Garot looked at me with narrow eyes.

It was as if he was looking at me, thinking, ‘What is this guy up to?’

Garot is a woman with a good sense of humor, so even if I expressed it in an awkward way, she would understand it right away.

“Wine. Uncharacteristically for you, Judas, I made a proposal that only aristocrats would make. I never thought you would have such a delicate part.”

“… Even if you look like this, you’re a college graduate.”

“What a funny joke. great. The airship from the Principality of Phrygia to Danhall departs at 9:00 PM. It’s 7pm now. There are still two hours left. A glass of wine would be fine.”

I was a college student.

I mean, he’s a smart guy.

Not to mention, I wasn’t bragging about it, but when it came to sleazy and messy things, my head was pretty good.

My paternal grandfather also praised me when I bowed twice to receive more money when I was young, saying, “The persimmon of a member of the National Assembly is yellow like a gnome and my great grandfather.”

I knew it at that age.

today.

That Garot had to stop riding the 9 o’clock airship at all costs—.
