Chapter 103 – 7. A Brief Break (20)
Kyahaha~
Hosea and Joshua thought they were childish looking at their older sisters flapping their wings and splashing around in the water.
But it wasn’t that I didn’t hate it, rather I should say it’s cute…
“…”
“…”
Glancing at each other, the two exchanged glances, then stood up while splashing water over their heads and washing off soap bubbles.
It’s not that they really want to play in the water either, but didn’t her mother do that?
Even though we are younger, if possible, ask us to match the behavior of the noonas.
Eight, the two of them rushed into the bath and soon became immersed in the quality of the water paddle, which they thought was childish, and began to have fun with each other.
* * *
“It was fun, right?”
“That’s right… Just because it’s childish doesn’t mean it’s bad”
Of course, when mom hears, she’ll say that you’re old enough to do childish things like that.
“Wouldn’t this be fun when you get older?”
“Well? Looking at your mother, it doesn’t seem like that at all, does it?”
Joshua sighed at Hosea’s words and recalled what had happened at the lake before.
The image of her mother, slightly taken aback by her father’s antics, splashing water and pouring water on her father.
When I think later, it seemed like they were just having fun rather than being angry…
“Does age have anything to do with it?”
“It’s just something to think about.”
Come to think of it, my dad was also naughty.
Seeing how he treats women so meanly, saying that he is not mean to women.
Nevertheless, Dad certainly never crossed the critical line.
Even though they were children, they were two far beyond the intellect of modern humans, so it was not difficult to feel that much.
But the two couldn’t figure out what that ‘line’ was.
Be honest… Not only dad, but aunts and uncles…? No grandpa? The same goes for Grandpa Cashwyn, whom I have a bit of an ambiguous relationship with. There was a certain invisible line that everyone had never crossed about their mother.
“Perhaps it has something to do with that dark figure you sometimes see?”
Joshua said while looking at Hosea, who had red hair and red eyes that looked just like him, and Hosea also sighed, resting his chin on his chin and thinking.
“But I’m afraid to ask her mother. I think she’ll be angry or cry.”
“…”
After clearing their coughs for a moment, the two recalled a similar experience once before.
I know the age of everyone including my aunts and uncles, but for some reason I didn’t know my mother’s age, so I asked them.
It was the first day I learned that asking a woman’s age is taboo.
However.
The two felt that something related to this was too big a taboo beyond asking a woman’s age.
“Let’s just move on. You got so mad at me for asking about your age, but I’m sure you won’t just let it go if you dig into this matter.”
“…That’s right. Even though my mother hates it, doing it is bad.”
Wow -!!
“What are you doing, kids?”
“Let’s play~”
The two of them got caught by the two older sisters who rushed naked from behind, aww?! I stopped and rolled on the floor.
“Oh, no, put on some clothes and come around!”
“So did Aunt Allen! Girls, take care of yourself.”
It was a time when sex education had not yet started, but Hosea and Joshua felt burdened inside that Liza and Elza were doing this because they learned and felt things knowingly and unknowingly while watching adults.
It was because I could understand that between a man and a woman, there is no need to show or touch the naked body.
I still don’t understand why, and I don’t know.
“We don’t know difficult words”
“That’s right”
“Idiot! Are you proud of that?”
“Learn something!”
I don’t know why, but as adults do, I try not to touch my body if possible, and somehow the brothers Hosea and Joshua have been struggling to separate their one-year-old, no, several-month-old older sisters, but they are still too young at their present age. The gap of a few months was a wall that was very difficult to overcome.
Above all, didn’t my mother strictly tell me?
People who want to harm themselves.
It is also said that if possible, you should not use superpowers unless you are a person who is definitely trying to harm them with malice.
He said to ignore things that would cause light scratches and not to use supernatural powers on people unless they were seriously injured.
It was the same with magic.
We have so much power in this world that we can kill people so easily if we do something wrong, so we have to be careful and be careful, Mom strongly emphasized.
“Ah really…”
“If you keep doing this, will you tell Grandpa Cashwyn?”
At those words, Elsa and Liza giggled.
“Dad would say it’s okay if it’s you?”
“Let’s just live together for the rest of our lives, huh?”
At that, Hosea and Joshua nodded, but they didn’t particularly like it, but they didn’t think they hated it either.
Still, the two of them were too young to seriously think about such things.
But at this time I didn’t know.
That what Elsa and Liza joked about would one day really come true.
* * * * *
“It’s been a while.”
“I see, Count. Should I call you my father-in-law?”
Count Baran, who was drinking tea with a sigh, shook his head quietly.
“No, it’s just that I haven’t been able to find a new wife for a while, and now I have to make a decision.”
The Count pulled out a rolled-up document from his bosom.
“It’s a document that officially recognizes Hosea as the successor of the count’s family.”
“Count?”
Loa looked at him in surprise.
Although Hosea and Joshua are quite precocious for their age, they were still four-year-olds. The Count is still correcting himself, but why already?
“I have ears, so I’ve already heard a lot about them. They’re very clever and not childishly decent.”
“Even so, they are still children. They are children who cannot even think properly about their future yet.”
Count Baran looked at the young man in front of him and let out a small laugh.
The first time I met him, he was just a kid, but before he knew it, the grown-up boy had become a grown-up young man with a strong body.
His momentum was no less than that of a knight commander. No, with momentum that seems to surpass even that.
“At first, he was just a kid who followed his girlfriend around, but now he’s become a full-fledged father.”
“…”
The sound of rubbing the metal of the gauntlet in my hand resounded.
“It’s still… Far. I’m still far from being able to protect my wife and children.”
“… How many people in this world are strong enough to protect their wife and children? Even I was like that.”
Roa quietly bowed her head at his words.
Because he wasn’t the only one suffering because of his wife.
He had forgotten, but he was also the one who had to let go of his wife and child so painfully.
That’s why he was more and more grateful for understanding himself and YuRia.
“Even so, not yet. Please wait at least until the children are ten.”
“Don’t worry. I don’t intend to bring that child right now just because I’m making him my successor.”
“…?”
Count Baran had a playful smile on his face as if he hadn’t forgotten something.
“?”
“Five years must have been a long time. You seem to have forgotten already. Who am I to give the final authority to determine the successor?”
“…Ah?”
It came to mind.
For sure… That authority…
“But now, if I don’t decide on a successor like this, it will be dangerous, so I’m trying to announce it externally. I don’t care who will succeed my family in the future. However, I’ll have to send a teacher to educate the successor now.”
“Already… You mean? Isn’t it too early yet?”
The Count chuckled and laughed.
“I didn’t say I was a teacher for those kids.”
“?”
“Yuria. She’s the teacher who will teach that child. Has she been soothing her weary body and mind until now? She just let it go, but as she is a noble, shouldn’t she learn about the nobility? Your children, YuRia. Let me teach you myself”
At that, Roa said ah… And looked at the Count.
“No way, then me too?”
“Isn’t that obvious? In order to live a full-fledged life as a nobleman, I’ll have to meet His Majesty, but I’m not old enough to be considered young anymore, so I’ll have to study properly.”
Loa nodded and sighed.
“This rookie, who seems to be the youngest S-class, can only use it when he sees how weak he is.”
“Hey, don’t say that!”
Watching Roa hit her hand in embarrassment, the count laughed as if it was funny and slowly started to bring her to the point.
“Actually, there is something else I really want to tell you.”
At the Count’s words, Roa also quietly faced the Count as if he had already expected it.
“I got a call from Gash a while ago.”
“At Gache… You mean?”
“Yeah. I don’t know, but the high-ranking people of Gashu have been implicitly conveying her opinion that they want to see Yuria. That’s been steadily since two years ago.”
At those words, Roa thought deeply. What the hell is going on…
“Of course, it didn’t sound like something was urgent. But, I came from a different opinion than her desire to see Yuria quite strongly.”
“In other words, it’s not urgent or important. Does that mean she really wants to meet Yuria?”
“Yes. It’s not necessarily the feeling of asking or forcing you to come, but you really want to see it. Rather, it seemed like you were missing that other side. But lately, that level has reached a level that’s hard to ignore, so I’m saying this. Yuria and Roa, you. It is also for that reason that I want to make you study about the nobility.”
“…”
Loa groaned and groaned softly.
“You two are now full-fledged nobles of Shelton. And as you are now full-fledged adults, you are not old enough to be forgiven for breaking the etiquette just because you are still young. It’s something to be aware of”
“…All right”
If that’s the reason, I can’t help it.
Her name Shelton reminded her of two of her own aunts.
The bloody Nell and the elf princess Eileen.
Come to think of it, at that time, I was so preoccupied with YuRia that it was hard to know what the elf felt like.
It would be better
Wouldn’t it be nice to take this opportunity to properly learn the etiquette of a nobleman, go back and forth to Gache, and greet her aunts?
“So, is your business over now?”
“No, the most important one remains”
“…”
Roa gulped and looked at the Count.
What is it One of the most important.
“Bring your grandchildren!! I want to see those cuties too!”
Creak! Roa staggered and looked at him with bewildered eyes.
Are you serious? With a very intense gaze called.
“I’m serious!
“…”
Loa groaned and touched his head, sighing.
“Okay.
“Please, please.”
* * * * *
“Wow!! Are you going to grandpa’s house?”
“Yes, let’s calm down.”
Yuria brought out the huge carriage she had received as a gift from the previous count.
This wagon, which was once a wagon no matter how luxurious it was, has long since been transformed into something that was no longer a wagon, but a wagon, as it went through YuRia’s stoppering.
The grateful high-ranking pedigree horses that had previously pulled the wagon were now retired as stallions, and the four horses tied to the front of the wagon were their offspring.
“Hey, it’s been a while, this”
“Isn’t it? There’s not much of a difference in terms of appearance, but the interior and other invisible places have been completely overturned.”
At YuRia’s words, Roa is Ho? I smiled and went inside the carriage.
And he was startled by the very bright interior atmosphere.
Inside the wagon, the ceiling was a bit low. As a loa, he had to bend his back a little, but it wasn’t that much of an inconvenience.
Looking closely, the interior of the wagon was divided into two floors, and large boxes were placed on the left and right sides of the first floor.
“They’re all magic boxes with subspace. One box has a space equal to the volume of this entire wagon.”
“It’s similar to Mr. Cashewwin’s backpack.”
“Anyway, since it’s a copy of the backpack’s spell, it can’t be helped…”
There are 16 chests stacked in 2 layers, 4 on each side. Indeed, this one wagon had the capacity to transport cargo equal to that of a decent group of merchants.
“And the second floor will be more surprising?”
As a result, Loa went up to the second floor and found something similar to a noble bedroom.
Except for a box in the subspace and a closet, the entire second floor was one huge bed.
“What, what is this?”
“Eh, hehe?”
Seeing Yuria turn away from her gaze with her face blushing with a selfish expression on her face, Roa pouted and broke into cold sweat.
“They called me pervert, and she said that it was Yuria who was full of the heart she wanted to become.”
“That, but!! Loa who left me alone after letting me know this good thing is worse!!”
“Kuhm!”
Even so…
“But I’ll have to take the kids, so what?”
“It’s okay. Let it rest.”
“It’s awful…”
Of course, I know very well that Yuria’s sleep magic is very safe.
Did she still want to cast her spell on her son…
“So… You don’t like loa?”
“No good”
Since she honestly went around working hard as her head of household, on the day she returned home, she had no intention of refusing Yuria’s request as she had been harassing Yuria all night without letting her sleep. .
She was hungry because she herself was too.
“What will they say when they grow up and know everything?”
“It’s okay. I’m sure you’ll understand.”
YuRia smiled and said with a very confident face.
“…It seems to be confirmed.”
“Huh, they’re really nice kids. It’s because they all resemble Roa.”
YuRia, who hugged her Loa tightly, lifted her tiptoe, kissed her Loa’s mouth, and pulled her neck gently, collapsed onto her bed together.
“In that sense, once now?”
“You know I won’t refuse a request like this, right?”
“You should test it once to know if it’ll be ok during the trip. If there’s a problem, we’ll have to fix it now.”
After kissing YuRia on the mouth as it was, Roa started giving and receiving each other, and then began to kiss each other deeply and firmly, holding their lips firmly together.
Roa, who felt that her suit, which tightly wrapped around Yuria’s body, was released inside her clothes that wrapped around Yuria’s body before she knew it, slipped her hand between Yuria’s collar and climbed her up the big hill. Took my hand
“Are you going to stop now?”
“Yeah… Come”
The carriage creaked and swayed for a long time.
“Mom, the wagon is making a lot of noise. What’s wrong? Is it broken?”
“…”
After a while, her face turned red, and YuRia hurriedly came up with countermeasures against shaking and noise.
“Ahhhhh !! I only set up a moaning measures inside.
After resolving such a minor problem for a while, Yuria, who somehow let her go, let out a sigh of relief.
She said she was shaking while repairing the inside of the carriage, and she was able to calm it down fortunately.
Hosea and Joshua, who were leaving the village for the first time, looked very excited.
Elsa and Liza, who came along there too, hee hee? He was very excited about the scenery outside the extension.
‘It was a godsend to make an observatory on the roof of the wagon… ‘
They were mixed-race, but perhaps because they were members of the Korean family, Elsa and Liza, like Allen, loved high places very much.
Maybe that’s why, watching her excitedly flapping her wings from the observatory on the roof of the carriage, Yuria slowly read the book on noble etiquette Roa had received from her count.
“It’s a new feeling, but it seems that the more difficult the class system is, the more credit is given to such useless things…”
Yuria, who had been glancing around lightly, was able to quickly figure out the main point by comparing it with the etiquette of a medieval aristocrat she already knew.
From YuRia’s point of view, she was reading ‘slowly’ to pass the time, but from Roa’s point of view, it looked like she was flipping through the bookshelves and looking at them.
YuRia, who had been reading through the books in the subspace box several times, was taken aback by the fact that she had already read over a dozen books, and glanced at Roa.
“Are there any more?”
“What are you talking about when the Count has already read a book that will take two months?”
“What? Hosea and Joshua can read it all in two hours.”
Loa is ridiculous with that! She did and she let it happen, and as a result, although Yuria was a little wrong, the results that made Roa freaked out came out.
No. In fact, if Yuria was correct, it was correct.
If Elsa and Liza hadn’t interrupted Hosea and Joshua while saying let’s play~ let’s play~, the two of them really seemed to have read it all in two hours.
“Mother. So what do I need to study now?”
“Oh, no, you don’t have to do that already. Just be comfortable when we’re together.”
“Yes mom!”
Hey, hey, he stroked her hair with our cute son, so Hosea and Joshua seemed to like it so much that they pushed their heads into Yuria’s hand even more while smiling brightly.
“Now, Dad says it’s difficult because he has a bad head, so my sons teach me well.”
“Yes mom!”
“Geg? Now, wait a minute. Yuria?”
In this way, the dignity of Loa as the head of the household was lost.
* * * * *
“I ate one of these”
Hiding in the dark, they found out belatedly through rumors that Yuria’s painting sold at auction turned out to be a double painting and ended up kicking their tongues.
Why did that idiot do such a stupid thing?
What is the benefit of it…
But it was rather good.
Thanks to that, the paintings flowed into the empire, and through the empire, her beauty spread widely beyond the empire to the northern countries and small continents of the western continent, as well as to the eastern continent.
They seasoned her once more.
She is she, she added three secretly to the rumor that she was the most suitable woman to be the wife of the emperor who would rule the whole world.
Nothing may happen now.
But. If these words are shed, will each country really stand still?
Needless to say, the East and West Continents, those who are confident that they are the losers of this world will mobilize all kinds of means to get her.
Because of that, the world will once again be engulfed in war and bloody winds will blow.
That kind of time was the most comfortable time for them to be active.
