Chapter 100 (1/2)

Is this sweet even forI pick out the bones from the fried fish that caht not be used to what's called eating fish with chopsticks but, Rin-chan used her chopsticks inally raised in a region where chopsticks were used commonly

「Hai, Rin-chan If there are bones take the observed my fish preparation ith a is it ready yet is it ready yet Rin-chan nodded energetically

「Hahaa, Alice-san is like a mother-san isn't she!」

「Since if Makina also leaves her carrots I'll have her cover their proper price」

「Cruel!」

It's not cruel you know

Let's eat without leaving any food

With the event of her co at the carrots, while groaning 「Eh～」 and the like in front of the table

「Kyui kyui!」

「Ah～, hai hai Please wait a little, since I'erof my clothes's sleeve

It's fine either way but this fox doesn't have even a fragment of wildness do you, Kyuu

Can you really become like that nine tails like that?

Please bite into so like a fish whole from the head

「Hai」

I put the fish that I prepared's body that was bought at a general store yesterday in a bowl for Kyuu's use and put it atso he needs lots of food the boith a whole fish was dived into at a high speed

As expected, having an ani I can't let be the case isn't it

「You're totally a mother-san nya」

「She is isn't she」

「……」

Let's try thinking about this a little

Provisionally if I had still been in inal body, would the conduct like what I just did have changed?

The answer is NO

It's not particularly the case that the currentbyhis best」

「Nya? What is that, all of a sudden?」

「No, I cahout the world, please don't mind it」

「Haa」

Beside Saira who had a curious face, Makina and Rin-chan quarreled over the carrots on their plates

「Saa saa Rin, how about I give youand robust」

「I～don't～want to! I'll beco even if I don't eat carrots」

「I coree with that opinion but, I currently, don't knohat to do with these carrots!」

「Your goods are for you to eat!」

「Gu, that's proper logic but……Even so I hate carrots!」

「Rin also doesn't need the with a child as your opponent

Finishi+ng the check out, today there's quickly heading toward the royal capital

It seems the royal capital is further to the east fro by riding together on a carriage but, at Makina's suggestion we ca

Kyuu is also here and, since she had a sort of extremely proper opinion that it would cause a bother if we rode a carriage together

I want to think that she doesn't particularly have an ulterior er

Maa, actually the sort of suggestion she gave was to go not by carriage but horse but……the people here all don't ride horses!

「Is Makina's country of origin here?」

While walking the sa a conversation to Makina as she walked besidewith us by flow but, since there are too ht But since I have a traveling lifestyle because of my travels, the sort of sense that ht be distant」

……She didn't bring ht but, the answer that came out was rather dyed in hardshi+p wasn't it

Saira, Rin-chan and Kyuu alking together ahead of us while ere like that

Kyuu is chasing after a setically kicked and, it's a somehow pleasant scenery

「That sort of scenery is adht doesn't it」

Makina narrowed her eyes with a complicated smile

This child……she's a beautiful person isn't she

No, that's currently totally unrelated though

「That is……Makina has, that sort of glittering et a feeling like havingback」

「So that's how it is」

To say that when re like a treasure isn't it

Froood if that happy time in her childish heart had continued forever so there are also ti, I understand that don't those things continue throughout her life

Probably, Rin-chan as well

「I well, wanted to beco so person」

「Isn't the current Makina, sufficiently strong to be able to do that」

「Haha, thank you But you see, there's no th Either way 『at that time』, it should becoh」

「……」

Froret

Ah I see, I thought that Makina reseht be soret

And so for Makina that h

Maybe she guessed about the feelings I couldn't speak of, Makina laughed lightly and smiled

「Don't make such a face Alice-san There hasn't been a ti like I'm a pitiable person you know Just as I said earlier, I also have lots of warm memories Since that's why I do my best」

「Is that so……」

Even if you say that with a sad seehtens the chest doesn't it

「Ha haa, then here's a suggestion! Today Alice-san, sleep together withthat I'll be happy!」

「……Eh?」

That's that is it, a request for fe that's fine～ correct?

「I, I suppose so～, if you'd like shall we enter the bath together too?」

「Is that okay!? Yattaa!」

「……Huh?」

I, dugenjoyed walking on the mountain Rin-chan came up besidehardened up without being sure what to do it was to the contrary a welcoive her a lift up with a yoisho

……Fuu, my exceptionally trained slender ariveAlice paht? You shouldn't be carried right～」

「I don't like Makina!」

「I don't really care～ so there」

These two, they've gotten along like a dog and a 's carrot incident

「Do you understand Rin? This ride isn't so you'll naturally receive, if you don't protect it your ride will disappear」

「Deshi+'s lift will?」

「Right, Alice-san's lift」

No the lift won't particularly vanish though

If Rin-chan badgers ood to do?」

Rin-chan, is really adorable isn't she

Her appearance while thrusting her head out with see enough to not lose to anyone! Surpass Ice and Snow tomorrow!」

「I understand!」

……Do your best!

「Clause～, to have the strength of heart to stand against any sort of hardshi+p! If you stu as you don't stumble you haven't lost!」

「Rin, won't lose you know!」

I met Saira's eyes and se

「Clause～, to eat without being picky! Specifically don't leave carrots!」

「Im～pos～ible! Makina also didn't eat the it's fine even if you're picky」

「Cheap～! I don't like Makina!」

「Hehe～nn, I don't particularly care～ so there」

There's Makina sticking her tongue out andRin-chan as she puffs her cheeks with teary eyes

「Please stop that」

「O!」

The chop I learned directly from my shi+shou, struck into Makina's head

This tiue

Really now, I'd like if you didn't go at a child of 5 years with your full power though

Let's leave those two to themselves for now

「Saira, does it see facility by the day's end?」

「Hai, from what I can see on the hway there's a place with a decent lodging facility prepared, for use by merchants or adventurers

There are few to none in the countryside but, since this is provisionally a highway connected to the royal capital, that's here this time
