Chapter 11 - Let’s Become Family (2) (2/2)
She became flustered and started swaying and rocking.
“Aah! Byaaaaah!”
She took a deep breath and exploded withe everything she accumulated.
Her crying voice.
“Bi, fua, gyaaaaah!”
Surprised by the noise, the baby with curling horns also burst into tears.
It’s the younger sister.
“Aaah! The younger sister too! Hey, it’s okay~! You were surprised, weren’t you~? Here, mama will give you a hug~!”
Since Aoinoun was holding the twins in both her arms, she wasn’t able to move successfully and became flustered.
She glanced at me repeatedly. For some reason, I found myself approaching them.
“Look, Papa came too~.”
“No, like I said, calling me papa…”
Why? We just met for the first time today!
“More importantly, Kunpei-san, please carry them too.”
Not only did they not stop crying, she also made a face like she was about to burst into tears.
It can’t be helped. I’ll help out.
“Give it here.”
I extended the safer left hand and received the younger sister from Aoinoun. My right arm that was wrapped with the cloth was used as support to embrace the baby.
“Byaaaaah! Fuaaaaah!”
“Hey, hey, what happened? Did you have a scary dream?”
I slowly rocked her and tried to comfort her.
When Shouhei was a child, he would stop crying when I rocked him… though I’ve always done it while sitting.
However, it was completely ineffective.
“Hm. She’s probably hungry?”
My old man who approached without me noticing, lifted up my shirt that the girl was wrapped in.
“Yeah. There’s something off down there. As I thought, she’s hungry.”
My old man had actual results in child rearing compared to me, so it should be reliable information.
“Well, you heard him”
I reiterated those words to Aoinoun.
“K-Kunpei-san. What do babies eat?”
“Eh?”
You’re asking me?
“A-ah, well, that, if it’s human infants, then after they’re born, it can only be that, right?”
“But these kids are dragons. Also, what is that?”
Aoinoun looked at me blankly.
“B-by saying that, I mean, that, you know? Officer Doggy!”
I was too embarrassed to say it myself.
If it’s a woman, she should be able to say it without any problem.
Please help me, officer!
“There’s no need to be shy. After all, you also drank it in the beginning.”
That’s true, but…
“Aoinoun-san, I don’t know about baby dragons, but for humans and most beastmen, babies are brought up with their mother’s milk.”
Phew! As expected, she could be relied on!
“Mother’s milk?”
However, Aoinoun didn’t get it.
“It’s breast milk. Miss, milk from your breasts is called mother’s milk.”
As expected of the handsome guy, Shouhei-kun. He just went and said it without any hesitation.
No, wait. His face is good, so it didn’t sound lewd coming from him at all.
So it’s true that handsome men are always innocent, eh.
“Breasts…”
Aoinoun fell into deep thought.
Meanwhile, the twins continued to cry.
Somehow, I get flustered hearing this sound.
“U-um”
Aoinoun looked at me with an uneasy face.
What is it?
“I wonder, will milk come out from my breasts?”
“How would I know!!!”
W-w-w-what the hell was this woman saying!
Me, who has never touched breasts other than my mother’s since being born, has no way of knowing things like that!
“Rest assured, Aoi! It will surely come out!”
Eh?
I just heard an unfamiliar voice from somewhere really close by.
“Yo, it’s been a long time! Blue Sky Dragon! Aoinoun who’s beloved by the sky!”
T-too loud!
From the right, I heard a voice which was way too loud.
I reflexively turned my head to the right.
“Where there are dragons, I’m also there! The [Inquisitive] Alba Germain has arrived! I’ve kept you waiting!”
There was a rat holding a staff standing on my right shoulder.
