Sevens 293: The Goddam Chicks
“Those deteriorated defects… noafter the chicks is et here, I’ll have to switch out the lock for that damn chicken’s bedroom”
… Night
Producing a tool from space between her skirt and apron, Monica hummed as she dexterously switched out the lock to Lyle’s room
Havingheated over looking after the chicks… Lyle’s children, she had made her move
The exchange complete, she opened the door and offered a line
“I’ve also installed iron plates in the door, so it won’t be breached so easily If you force your way in, the chicken will be shocked away, and the night crawling will end in failure… you fools, all of those Godda to me!”
After bursting intoinstalled on the inside of the door before closing it She moved to hand Lyle his new key…

… The one clinging to the wall of Rhuvenns Castle was Valkyrie Unit Nine
She had seen Monica’s relieved face at changing the lock fro, her form stuck to the wall looked like a suspicious intruder froles
“… Covet what falls through your petty hands all you will You her specs, but… you do not seem to understand our superiority in number An important person of the past once said it War is numbers, brother”
(TL: This is a quote fro the One Year War)
Unit nine, in an atteh theBut as thequietly opened, and she landed in the hall, the other Valkyries dressed in black appeared before the door as well
One had cli, another speared from the corner…
“Y-you all…!”
As Unit Nine stood and entered a battle stance, Unit Thirty Two took out the tools she planned to use on the lock as a weapon
“It looks like we’re all thinking the saated Aria-san, so I cannot step down”
Holding up her fists, Unit Fifty One said showed no signs of letting up either
“I could sayto Unit Thirty Four, she’ll institute a rotation syste down here!”
Unit Nine looked at the two of them, and offered a proposal
“Wait a ether? There is no st ourselves here For everyone’s sake, let us join hands and…”
There, three maid-clothed Valkyries… rushed onto the scene
“I won’t let you!”
“What are you doing in front of our master’s room!?”
“Intruders Eliers to e attire Rivals shall disappear”
As the three units said such extreotiations
“P-please wait Can’t we all just… get along…”
There, the maid-clothed Valkyries spoke
“… How unfortunate We are on the Shannon shi+p Even if the others gain chicks of their own, it will surely be in the distant future for us That is e have determined you are merely in the way!”
“I shall not let the chance to obtain a uselessly cute chick slip away!”
“A chick that inherits Shannon-san’s uselessness… I think it is simply wonderful”
“How cruel! Pulling down the others in your plight… I feel just a little mad that I am jealous of you”
The automatonon quite a disappointing conversation Before the door, they stood stanced with their various pieces of hardware and cleaning tools withoutan inch
The one watching the them at a distance, he silently turned towards his office
“I guess I’ht Already have blankets and all”
And with that, the Valkyries before the roo one another, holding their positions untilcame…

These days, you know
I haven’t returned to my room Monica handedtheir weapons(?) and facing one another before the door
Whenever I ask, they say soe that it’s already been set in stone my children will be called chicks? What’s this? Doesn’t that nized me as a chicken dickwad?
Fro in the office, or some other room At ti about work, he would let me sleep on his sofa
“Why do I have to run around like this?”
As I gave sohed
『Isn’t it cute? You know, chicks? Still, it’s true it’s a proble’s too off』
The Walt House had moved, and the inside of the castle was so frantic, and yet these Valkyries keep raising up unnecessary trouble… those cores were definitely influencing theht that, I couldn’t help but feel the implacability of the creators who carved those cores out, those ancients
In the palace courtyard, I looked over the knights and soldiers who’d finished preparing as I thought over such trivial things
But the Seventh spoke seriously
『… If possible, it would be best if you had at least one child This cos with Bahnsei point』
The Third cautioned me
『In the fight with Bahnseim, that is Celes is a separate problem, Lyle』
Even if you asked me about children, with the e, I couldn’t give an answer There, the Seventh spoke
『Lyle, coht We have to talk a bit You were raised in a bit of a special environment So it seems you don’t understand, but… to tie with blood is an extre』
I could understand what he was trying to say I gripped the Jewel to show my approval as I looked around
We were ready to athered The forces of North and South Beim had joined, and reinforcements from the alliance had come
Cartaffs and Djanpear weren’t able to participate, but even so, ere ready
Wearing my armor of blue and white, I held my helmet in my left hand as I looked up at the sky The sparse white clouds flowed through the bright blue sky The ence of the sun I could feel the warht of day
Novem wantered over to me
“Lyle, we are ready to un to ive an address once we arrive”
As Novem spoke of my schedule, I answered a little tiredly
“I just gave an address yesterday Well, that’s alsotoo You don’t have to force yourself to…”
When I said that much, Novem shook her head to the side
I tried to make her step back a few times, but it seems she had no such intent
“From the moment I left the Weihs territory with you, I cut off all ties to ainst me, I’m sure my father and brother won’t hesitate Of course, I won’t be hesitating either”
With eyes that didn’t show any wavering resolve, Novem looked at me “I see,” I said and walked off The main members around followed behind
“… Fighting family sure is painful”
I thought I had ht it And the words she sent back were…
“I’m sure you’ll be able to overcome it, Lyle-sama Please be more confident in yourself”
Perhaps I should call them Novem-esque words That’s what they were
