Chapter 53 - Howl (4) (1/2)

“Aoi!”

I rushed up the narrow path in a hurry and reached the top.

There was flat ground as far as the eye can see.

Only one raised rock was visible near the back.

“Hey! Why did you rush all of a sudden!”

Father caught up from behind.

It was too troublesome to even answer and I moved my head to look for Aoi.

I found her.

“It’s near the end! Isn’t it okay for Jaja and Nana to meet Kunpei-san!”

“Didn’t I say no! Listen to what I tell you!”

“I can’t understand the reason! I just want to breastfeed Jaja and Nana!”

Her transparent blue hair was ruffled, her large wings stretched to they sky, her tails straightened, Aoi was enraged.

The person she was confronting was, as expected, Yule.

As usual, it was just her appearance that was like a first-class model.

I confirmed that figure and started running straight ahead.

“H-hey! Kunpei!”

I could hear the voice of my flustered father, but it was not a reason to stop.

The leg guards were being lifted up by the wind and making clip-clop sounds. Annoying.

I judged that it was getting in the way, and tore it off while running.

I also don’t need the rucksack.

It ’s just heavy.

“Kunpei-kun! Calm down!”

Mikuma, sorry, but I cannot calm down.

“Aoi!”

“Eh?”

When I called out, Aoi turned to me with a stupid expression.

“Kunpei…san….?”

Those glass marble like eyes that I wanted to see opened wide, and large drops of tears spilled out.

“Sorry! I kept you waiting! Where are the kids!”

I finally arrived and placed my hand on her shoulder.

I adjusted my rough breathing in haste.

“U-um, inside the nest. They’ve been crying this entire time, and it seems they tired themselves out from crying.”

“Is that so. Did they cry after all.”

I can’t do this.

I have to see their faces.

“… Brat, what did you come for?”

“I have no business with you. Is the nest that large rock? Let’s feed the kids. Show the way.”

Yule quietly intimidated me, but honestly it didn’t matter.

I simply dealt with it, and pulled Aoi’s hands.

“Y-yes! Please follow me!”

Aoi, who finally caught up with the situation, happily grasped my hand back.
