428 Angel

Were back!

Kue!

Just a bit before the sun set, we were on standby at our meeting place by the riverbed, waiting for Father-in-law and his group.

When Yuki-chan and Sakura-chan appeared, both were quite quite obviously filorial queens now.

You see, um, about midway through their figures changed this much, so are they really okay? (Naofumi)

Whoa Its sort of like a monster breeder game, eh? (Naofumi)

While saying something along those lines, Father-in-law dismounted Sakura-chan.

As soon as he reached the ground, his attention was pulled to his sore, chafed butt and thighs.

Geez Since my lower body still isnt used to riding, this is quite dreadful huh? (Naofumi)

Ah, its fine. Ive halfway recovered on the trip back to you guys, after all. (Naofumi)

Oink

And at almost that exact moment, the Silt Welt pig tumbled down from Yuki-chan.

At the same time, Eclair revealed a green face as she leaned across Yuki-chan.

T-this is my limit (Eclair)

Falling down with a thud, its starting to look like shes dying.

If its just about exterminating monsters, this resulted in a frightening amount of experience, but This is more than I can (Eclair)

Sir Iwatani is abnormal. To be treating this ride like nothing (Eclair)

Saying it like that is a bit (Naofumi)

Saying so, Father-in-law is scratching his head.

Father-in-law gave birth to the one who stands at the top of all filorials, Firo-tan.

His spirit isnt so weak that hed lose heart over that sort of jolting and tremoring.

Now, how were todays conquests? (Motoyasu)

Then it turned out rather well. If Father-in-law is ready, I would like to increase that level even further in preparation for the future. (Motoyasu)

Thats certainly true. (Motoyasu)

I replied; if I think about it, I must take father in law to a towns weapon shop.

Its not as if using Weapon Copy wont improve our equipment.*

Hey Motoyasu-kun, I wonder, is it alright to do weapon enhancement and such on the newly revealed shields? (Naofumi)

Thank you. Now to pick a revealed shield with high abilities, huh. (Naofumi)

Theres no guarantee of the weapon shops good shields rivaling what we have, though. Since I think its insufficient as of yet to awaken the shields through refining with what we have, Im considering what our refining methods could achieve with lumber or other materials.

Fortunately, I think our current preparations are enough to defend against the average adventurers or soldiers attack.

With this, Father-in-law has also become strong to some extent. (Motoyasu)

Nevertheless, this is a great step forward. (Motoyasu)

Yeah. Rapidly growing stronger like this seems like a hallucination, you know? (Naofumi)

Tomorrow, I want to push Father-in-laws level up to 40.

Eclair and the pig were laid in the carriage, and we men led the group towards town.

[Read any further and youll be placed on a government watch list]

Phew Itd be good if we could rest at ease today, but (Naofumi)

Father-in-law complains as he sits on the inn bed.

Certainly, being chased by assassins these past few days has been dreadful.

If we judged based on appearances, I remember the last town where we stayed also gave a peaceful impression.

Well, it seems that bodyguards hired by Silt Welt are keeping watch in front of the inn, but still.

I wonder, from tomorrow on, will we be able to continue travelling together?

Eclairs group has already retired to the room next door.

For now, Yuki-chan and the others are enough to secure Father-in-laws safety.

Well then, I shall head off to the inns stable. (Motoyasu)

There is still a task remaining. (Motoyasu)

In regards to that, I need Father-in-law to depart with me as well. (Motoyasu)

I lead Father-in-law out to the inns stable.

There, we found Yuki-chan and the other filorials restlessly waiting.

Thank you for waiting! (Motoyasu)

Kue!

The filorials cheerfully replied as I arrived.

Given their hard work today, Father-in-law prepared them smoked meat as a reward.

So? What is it were doing? (Naofumi)

Soon, soon (Motoyasu)

Yuki-chan and the others are happily singing their kue-kues.

I whisper towards the filorials.

Filorial ladies and gentleman, if you could consider gradually taking your angel form. Somehow or other please display that honorable appearance! (Motoyasu)

After exchanging glances at my words, Yuki-chan and the others stood straight up and Started to transform.

Wha (Naofumi)

Together with a faint light, the filorials transform into their angel forms.

Seeing their honorable appearance, Father-in-law was at a loss for words.

At the moment they transform, with the same color as their previous forms wings sprout from their backs.

Oh? Is Yuki-chan slightly taller?

Her face gives the impression of leadership.

Kou gives the impression of an inquisitive and energetic boy.

Would she be called a drowsy sort? She gives a slightly sleepy impression.

Motoyasu-sama~ (Yuki)

Thats right! (Motoyasu)

Besides Kou, they all called out for me.

Father-in-law tries opening and closing his mouth a few times.

What you said before I heard it, but its a shock to see it in person, huh? Im really not sure how I want to inform Miss Eclair. (Naofumi)

Yeah. Thats right, but (Naofumi)

Naofumi~ (Sakura)

Sakura runs towards Father-in-law.

Youre Sakura-chan, is it?

Yup! Im Sakura~, you know?

With the cherry blossom colored hair on her head fluttering, a nude Sakura-chan embraces Father-in-law.

Waah! (Naofumi)

Though Father-in-laws eyes are struck wide in surprise at Sakura-chans embrace, he diligently pats her head.

Raising her head to Father-in-law, Sakura-chan reveals a smile.

Ehehe~ (Sakura)

Yeah. So hey, Ive wanted to say something since the time we met. Thank you for always stroking my head~! (Sakura)

Ah, sure (Naofumi)

At this situation, a troubled Father-in-law cast his gaze to the horizon.

Motoyasu-kun, arent we going to put clothes on these kids? (Naofumi)

What for~? (Sakura)

So miss filorial is firing a question right off the bat, huh?

The thing is, by wearing clothes, everyone will increase their appeal! (Motoyasu)

Clothes~? Something like dressing up, right Yuki~? Naofumi wants Sakura to wear clothes? (Sakura)

Sakura is quite the spoiled child. That appearance of a harmonious relationship with Father-in-law bears a striking resemblance to Firo-tan.

There are subtle differences in the way she walks.

From head to toe, Sakura-chan is disappointing.

Um, thats right, you know? It would be be really helpful if you could wear some clothes. (Naofumi)

At Father-in-laws words, Sakura-chan gave a serious nod.

O-kay! Sakura will wear clothes~. (Sakura)

Ah! Sakura wants to do it first~ (Sakura)

Hmph~ (Sakura)

Youll have to put up with it, Sakura-chan.

It seems like Yuki-chan has completely taken over the role of team leader between you three.

Hm? (Kou)

Kou stands silently off to the side.

When I turn him a gentle, approachable smile, Kou responds.

Kitamura (Kou)

Huh why is Kou the only one who used Motoyasu-kuns family name? (Naofumi)

Like this, our introductory episode ended, and Kou immediately began to crank the machines handle.

Ahahaaa, this is fuuun! (Kou)

Hey! Kou, dont just use that as you please! (Yuki)

Yuki-chan was quick to scold Kou.

Its quite the charming scene.

After this It looks like it should be fine if we head back to the room and call it a night, right? (Naofumi)

That seems fine. (Motoyasu)

Once we confirmed that Yuki-chan, Kou, and Sakura-chan had all finished up spinning normal threads, the three donned temporary pajamas.

I hope this is sufficient? I expect you good children to properly take care of Father-in-law while you sleep. (Motoyasu)

Understood. (Yuki)

Yuki-chan is quite clever. It honestly reminds me a great deal of Midori.

Yeah. Sakura also~ wants to sleep with Naofumi~ (Sakura)

Yi~ppee~!

As Sakura-chans face brightens, Father-in-law affectionately strokes her head.

Father-in-law was also exceedingly gentle with my filorials.

Once he finished, Yuki-chan picked up after him.

Come, Sakura is next you know. (Yuki)

O~kay (Sakura)

Sakura-chan grasped the machines handle and began to rotate her hand.

However, her personal pace turns out to be somewhat sluggish.

Sakura, couldnt you turn it a bit faster? (Yuki)

Eh~? (Sakura)

Sakura-chan turns to Father-in-law.

Does Naofumi want me to go faster~? (Sakura)

Is that so~? Then, Sakura will spin it at ease~ (Sakura)

So saying, Sakura began to spin her thread.

Fuwaaa Kou got drowsy. (Kou)

Well then, we will soon all head off to the bedroom. (Motoyasu)

While Sakura-chan is spinning her thread, Yuki-chan and Kou are repeatedly yawning.

Since Father-in-law sent a signal that itd be fine to go on ahead, I lead the two to the door.

Well, if Sakura-chan can handle her thread, Motoyasu-kun says hell go ahead and take everyone off to bed. (Naofumi)

Ro~ger~ (Sakura)

Sakura-chan happily spins her thread, sometimes quickly and sometimes carefully, clearly enjoying herself.

The cozy scene stuck in my mind as I led the other two filorials back to the room and we all went to bed.
