Chapter 475 – Episode 475 – Tizan Family
We decided to stop going to the dungeon for now and sat down in an empty space inside the Adventurer’s Guild to talk.
First, Noah asked Gracia and Lyfa.
“Didn’t you two send a letter saying you found your husbands?”
“I forgot.”
“Me too… I was so happy with my husband that I forgot to report to my father…”
“Hahaha! That’s proof of how smitten you are!”
“So, what are you going to do? Are you going to write a letter now?”
“No, there’s a much faster and simpler way than writing a letter.”
Lyfa looked at me and grinned.
“Honey! Let’s just go to Bridan!”
“To Bridan?”
“Yeah! It’s faster to just go to Bridan with you than to send a letter.”
“Certainly… With my husband’s speed, we can arrive in Camel in less than a day.”
“Besides, you said you wanted to meet our fathers and mothers, right? Honestly, I want to show off my husband to my father! To tell him that I’ve become the mate of such a wonderful man!”
“Me too… I want to report to my father that I’ve become the lover… cough! …of someone like my husband, not a knight.”
Meeting Lyfa and Gracia’s fathers and mothers.
It’s not just their fault that they forgot about this.
I said I would take responsibility for them, but I was so caught up in our sweet life that I also forgot.
I bowed my head and apologized to them.
“I’m sorry, Lyfa, Gracia.”
“Huh?”
“Honey?”
“W-was it, perhaps, unpleasant?”
“No, that’s not it. I’m apologizing because I also forgot until now. As the husband responsible for you two, I shouldn’t have forgotten.”
“Oh, is that what it was? You don’t need to apologize, honey.”
“That’s right, honey! You don’t need to apologize!”
“More importantly, you’re still going to Bridan, right?”
“Yes, of course. I can leave right now.”
At my words, Lyfa’s eyes sparkled and she jumped up from her seat.
“Great! Let’s go then!”
At that moment, Nora Elsie raised her hand and said.
“Me too! I want to go too!”
“I really want to visit Camel too!”
“Of course, you should come with us! Oh, right!”
Lyfa turned around and asked Melissa and Leni.
“Hey, Melissa! Leni! How about you two come with us too!”
“Lyfa, can’t you see I’m working? I’ll go with you next time.”
“I’m sorry, I’ve taken too many days off recently, so I can’t take any more time off.”
Unfortunately, the two of them couldn’t go because of work.
◈
30 minutes later.
We finished preparing to go to Bridan and gathered at the Fox’s Rest.
The members going were me, the dungeon party members, and Tina.
When I told Tina through my clone that we were going to Bridan, she said she really wanted to go too.
Miranda also said that she could manage the store alone, so she told Tina to go, and we decided to go to Bridan together.
“I couldn’t go to Solario with you, but I really wanted to go to Bridan!”
Tina was even wearing a red cheongsam she bought for cosplay, saying she was going to Bridan.
“Why Bridan?”
“Because I heard there are many books about massage in Bridan!”
“Ah~ There are many massage parlors.”
It was the first time I heard that there were many massage parlors.
“Are there many?”
“In Bridan, they use their own unique method of strengthening the body, you know that, right? The method we use is more effective if we open the body’s meridians, so there are many massage parlors.”
“It’s also used a lot for beauty.”
“Ah, I’m sure there are some books about massage and meridians in my house… Tina, do you want to read them?”
“Wow! Really! I really want to read them!”
“Okay, I’ll lend them to you when we get home.”
“Thank you, Lyfa!”
“Call me ‘sister’.”
“Yes, Lyfa sister!”
We went outside of Peldan, and then I used my telekinesis to fly towards Bridan’s capital, Camel.
While flying, Lyfa looked down and said.
“Wow~ You’re really fast, honey. The distance we’ve covered already would take a day by carriage.”
“At this rate, we should be able to arrive before noon.”
“Hey, hey, Lyfa! There were many beastmen in Canol, are there many in Camel too?”
“Of course, there are many. Tigers, dogs, wolves, cats, foxes, bears, rats, rabbits, all kinds of beastmen. Oh, and of course, there are dwarves and elves too.”
“Um… Gracia, the current Beast King’s race is…”
“As the legends say, all the past Beast Kings have been rabbit beastmen, Elsie.”
“H-have you ever seen them in person?”
“I’ve seen them a few times when I was little, when I attended parties only for the Round Table Knight families. They were small in stature, but even as a child, I could feel the king’s aura.”
“Wow…”
I remembered that in the play about the Beast King and Queen Guinebina that I saw when I went on a date with Tina, they were wearing rabbit ears.
Come to think of it, I’ve made many memories while dating, but there were still many things I didn’t know about how the two of them spent their childhood.
“Gracia, Lyfa, please tell me about your childhood while we’re traveling.”
“Our childhood?”
“Yes, anything is fine.”
I can listen to the stories of my two lovely lovers as much as I want.
“Ah, I’m curious too! What were Lyfa and Gracia like when they were little? When did you two meet?”
“We met at a Round Table Knight family party when we were five years old.”
“Ah, right, that’s right. That’s when I met Gracia. Ah, pfft!”
“Huh? Gracia, why are you laughing?”
“No, I just remembered that you… pfft! You were so nervous that you grabbed Sir Lancelot’s pants and wouldn’t let go. It was so cute back then.”
“…Ah, now that you mention it, I remember too. Lyfa was running around so much that Lady Tizan hit you on the head to make you stay still. Hah, I couldn’t help but laugh at your face as you clutched your head in pain.”
“…What, you remember that too?”
“That’s what I should be saying.”
“Ah! I remembered something else! When Gracia was little…”
After that, until we arrived in Camel, they kept revealing each other’s mistakes and funny moments from their childhood.
“Gracia cried when she lost to me for the first time. ‘My father’s swordsmanship is the strongest, waaaah!’ she said!”
“Then I trained hard and beat Lyfa! You cried just as much back then, Lyfa!”
“She went on a herb-gathering quest alone and only picked poisonous herbs. I doubted if she was really an elf.”
“It was a sight to behold when Lyfa rushed into an orc subjugation mission and got hit by an orc’s club and flew far away.”
As the two of them became more heated, Elsie looked at Tikia anxiously and said.
“T-Tikia, s-shouldn’t we, perhaps, stop them?”
“Leave them be, Elsie. That’s just them bickering cutely.”
“B-but…”
“Besides, it’s fun to watch them argue.”
“Tikia!?”
“Oh, so they had those kinds of things when they were newbies.”
“I also had a hard time when I first entered the dungeon~.”
Gracia and Lyfa’s voices started to get louder and louder.
“If you’re going to talk like that, you too…”
“Lyfa! You’re the one who…”
Hmm, if I leave them like this, it seems like they’ll get upset, so I should stop them.
Just as I was thinking that and was about to step in between them.
“Lant.”
“Huh?”
Tina called me.
*Whoosh whoosh*
She gestured for me to send her between the two of them.
It seemed like Tina had something in mind, so I sent Tina between them.
“Lyfa sister~ Gracia sister~.”
*Thump!* Tina placed her hands on their shoulders.
“”Eek!””
Lyfa and Gracia flinched and stopped talking at the same time.
Tina smiled brightly and pretended to massage their shoulders as she said.
“You shouldn’t fight~ right?”
“Ha, haha, Tina, when did we ever fight? Right, Gracia?”
“T-that’s right. We were just talking about memories, Tina.”
“Ah, is that so? Your voices were so loud, I thought you were fighting.”
“Fighting! We were just having fun, so our voices got loud!”
“I-it seems like I made a mistake, sorry.”
“Hehe, it’s okay.”
Thanks to Tina, Lyfa and Gracia didn’t argue anymore.
I used telekinesis to move Tina next to me and patted her head.
“Thank you, Tina.”
“Hehehe♡ You’re welcome♡”
After calming down for a bit, Gracia and Lyfa started talking about the old days again.
This time, instead of revealing each other’s mistakes, they talked about their adventures together in Bridan, or memories of living with their families.
Especially when Gracia started talking about how amazing her father was, she talked non-stop for an hour.
Looking at Gracia like that, I thought that she was indeed a daddy’s girl, even though she denied it.
And some more time passed.
We arrived in Bridan, in the capital, Camel.
◈
After landing near Camel, we immediately headed towards Camel.
Normally, I would have to show my identification tag to pass through.
“Welcome! Lyfa! Gracia!”
The guards at the gate let us through immediately as soon as they saw the two of them.
That alone was enough to tell that Lyfa and Gracia were famous in Camel.
The streets of Camel.
At first, I thought that it would be more like China than the Middle Ages because of Lyfa’s clothes, but that was my mistake.
Like Canol, the building styles were not much different from Peldan.
However, the difference was that there were more women wearing cheongsams like Lyfa than in Canol.
“There are a lot of people wearing cheongsams.”
“It’s a bit much for me to say, but the design is pretty. Thanks to that, our family, who is the originator of this design, is making a lot of money.”
“Hehe, so Lyfa is a rich young lady?”
“Well, our family is the richest among the Round Table Knight families.”
“Oooo…”
“Oh, right, honey! Since it’s close, let’s stop by our house first, Gracia, is that okay?”
“Let’s do that. Hmm, now that I think about it, it’s been a while since I’ve been to the Tizan family.”
“We’ve mostly only met at the guild since we became adventurers. Okay, let’s go!”
We followed Lyfa and headed towards Lyfa’s family home, the Tizan family.
And what I saw there was.
“Wow…”
It was a luxurious building with gold tiger patterns and carvings everywhere.
Just by looking at it, I could tell at a glance that it was Lyfa’s family home.
As expected, there were guards standing in front of the Tizan family building.
“Hey, I’m back!”
“”Welcome back, Lyfa!””
“Hahaha! It’s been almost… three months? Anyway, it’s been a while. Is Father here?”
“Lord Gwein is currently in a meeting!”
“A meeting? Don’t they usually have them in the morning?”
“We are not aware of the details!”
“Well, I guess you wouldn’t know. Then, what about my older brothers or mother?”
“Madam and Grill are currently at the mansion!”
“Gran is out on a regular subjugation, and Grel is at the research lab!”
“Is that so? Then I should greet Mother first. Oh, these are my companions, so they’re coming in with me.”
“”Yes!””
And we entered the Tizan family mansion.
It looked flashy from the outside, but it felt even more luxurious inside.
In particular, the interior of the building was made of red wood, with gold tiger patterns everywhere, giving the impression that this was definitely the Tizan family!
As we walked through the corridors of the Tizan family, the people who seemed to be servants of the Tizan family all greeted Gracia and Lyfa, making me feel that they were truly nobles.
And Lyfa stopped in front of a certain room and knocked on the door.
*Knock knock knock*
“Who is it?”
A woman’s voice was heard from beyond the door.
“Mother! I’m back!”
“Lyfa, come in.”
Lyfa opened the door, and a white-skinned beastwoman with silver hair like Lyfa’s appeared.
“Welcome back, Lyfa, Gracia came with you too. Hmm…? Who are the people behind you?”
Her mother looked at us behind Lyfa and expressed her confusion.
“Let me introduce you, Mother! This is my husband and… my new sisters!”
“…What?”
Her eyes widened at Lyfa’s words.
