Chapter 12 (2/2)
To Luru, the fact that he’d be living with Iris, but in a manner a little different than expected, dropped him into a truly difficult to describe emotion
“Well, at any rate I can stop worrying about you two I’unna head back to the inn Also, to; there are things I wanna discuss with you, and things I wanna ask you, after all Yuumis probably does too With little miss Iris[/ojouchan] as well, of course”
With that, Gran gave a wave of his hand and headed towards the inn
While still carrying Iris, to Gran alking away,
“For everything that happened this time, really, thank you very muchh!”
said Medea, waving at him
Iris lay exhausted by Medea’s chest, but it was probably emotional weariness rather than physical
But with Iris being adopted, it meant that she was now Luru’s little sister
The daughter of his old friend, was now his little sister…
Would that make his old coer brother?
Thinking about this, Luru had an odd feeling about it
“Anyway, it’s great that everything ended well, huh…”
Afterthis, Luru and the two of them returned inside the house
Like that, their long day finally ended
The next erly for them, for at the same time they arrived,
“You’re finally here, huh”
said Yuumis
Medea was affectionate with Iris so she wouldn’t let go, and as a result they ended up leaving the house quite late so it couldn’t be helped that Yuumis complained
Yesterday, Iris earing an expensive black dress bestoith concealy, but because of Medea’s preferences, today she earing sohtly coloured clothes that comprised a sky-blue one-piece dress and a wide-rimmed white hat for the summer Clothes that made her truly look like a doll
Like that, because Iris’ appearance looked like it had been extreether, it wasn’t that the clothes didn’t suit her, but the demon race preferred black that symbolised darkness, or clothes close to that colour, and because Iris was no exception to this, she alhtly coloured clothes, and felt a little embarassed to do so
Yuumis seemed in a bad mood when Luru first arrived at the inn, but the moment she saw Iris, it seelancing at Iris and seemed like she wanted to reach out to her,
“If you want to pat her, you can just pat her”
Said Luru
As for Iris,
“…Is that how it is? In that case, though I don’t believe it would feel very good… please go ahead”
she said, taking off her hat, and conscientiously presenting her head to Yuuan to pat her and in the end, happily had Iris sit on her lap
Sitting opposite Luru was a hugely built irl of about seven sitting on their lap
While joking in his mind, ‘What the heck kind of faet to the point
“So? What did you want to discuss today?”
Because it looked like Yuu Iris, Luru directed the question at Gran
“Well, I say discuss but… they’re questions, I guess First of all, you ht? Just where’d you learn that kind of skill?”
With those words, he immediately cut to the heart of it
Having said that though, Luru believed that he would definitely be asked this, so he wasn’t particularly shocked
Luru replied with an answer he had calmly prepared in advance
“I don’tyou, but it’s an extremely important secret to me If you want to know, then I need you two to take an oath”
Luru didn’t particularly plan on lying the them astray
There was no reason in particular to hide it, and he even thought that as long as they kept quiet, he wouldn’t
He was a little worried about whether they would really stay quiet, but that too had a solution
That’s why he ended up speaking the way he did, but it seeht of Luru a little
“I get it I definitely won’t tell anybody”
So she said, but Luru replied,
“That was a lie… I shouldlies here I don’t h it all, you know?”
“…Eh? That’s the lie, right? I don’t feel any flow of mana”
Said Yuu around in shock
“It’s the truth Hmm… Then, I’ll ask you a few questions, so just reply; it doesn’t matter if they’re lies or truth What’s your favourite food?”
“Meat”
“The name of your best friend?”
“Meria”
“If you could be reborn, ould you want to be?”
“A bird”
“…In order, they were a lie, a lie, and the truth, right?”
Spoke Luru, slowly
Yuumis widened her eyes in shock
“It really is cast, huh… But it’s not like I’, you know?”
“Even if you don’t plan on spreading it, you still plan on telling somebody, don’t you?”
“Well, yes We’re adventurers We have the obligation to report to the guild head”
“I understand how you feel, but in the end, that’s still telling soht? …By the way, if you do wanta contract spell If you’re not fine with that, I have no intention of speaking”
Seeing their back and forth, Gran spoke to Yuumis
“See? It was your uy… to think of Luru as a normal kid Didn’t I say to think of him as an equal?”
“Isn’t that just your impression? I still had no idea what kind of person this boy was! There are things you can’t grasp without having a chat with theht I didn’t think that he’d even bring up contractyou I heard about yesterday froet to know your character a little more deeply…”
Froic, it seemed that her words weren’t a lie
“But you still want to report it, right?”
“Honestly, it’s true that it wouldn’t do to stay silent after hearing about it However, I intended to speak about it as little as possible Even so, the guild chief has a little authority so… if you consider the case where he decides to exercise it, I wouldn’t be able to guarantee that I’d definitely stay silent That’s why I thought there’d be trouble in that regard… But if you don’t feel like talking, I wasn’t really going to ask you, you know? I’m interested but… I couldn’t help but feel that if I heard about how to change the uild head, it would just become a bothersome situation If possible, I want to avoid situations like that, so wouldn’t it be fine if I didn’t hear anything? There wouldn’t be anything to report”
It see the truth
“Then you won’t be asking? Even though we came here already?”
“That’s what the plan was, but… you can use contractbound by that, won’t you tell me? If I can’t speak about it, then I wouldn’t need to fulfil ht? Wouldn’t that be fine?”
“I don’t think that’s a good thing to do but… Gran, what about you?”
Gran nodded in reply
“To begin with, I wasn’t gunna say anything If I was properly following the guidelines of the guild then I’d have the obligation to report, but… In the end, nothing caht to overlook this? Moreover, there’s what Yuuht?”
In the end, the two of theations
They were a really irresponsible pair that just ith the flow
It seems that Luru’s ie wasn’t mistaken
“Well, in that case… I guess I’ll speak? Iris, are you fine with it too?”
“Yes As you desire, Luru-sama”
And thus, Luru cast contract an to talk
“It is my pleasure to meet you, madam” The word ‘ the lady/wife of the house
