“We played Frisbee over there…” (Reus)
While on the way back, Reus muttered regretfully with dropped ears and tails. In addition to his reaction, Emilia and Hokuto also dropped down their tails like a chain.
“Well. That butler told us to leave soon, so it can’t be helped, you know.” (Sirius)
“Woof…” (Hokuto)
“I don’t know when this will be, but I will bring Noel and Dee together next time. Let’s bring lunch box and play Frisbee.” (Sirius)
The siblings and the animal were pleased while wagging their tails. Oops, I shouldn’t forget Noel’s children. In any case, it’s going to be like a large family when we go next time.
We returned to the mansion a bit in a hurry but it was still late morning judging from the sun’s position.
I am not sure what the reason is, but we should leave immediately since the old butler of the mansion told us to leave by afternoon.
I took off the imperial guard mantle and put it on the carriage. When I was about to release the safety device… I noticed several signs approaching our direction.
I invoked [Search] immediately to gather information on someone who was approaching us.
“There are four… no five people. It seems they are coming here by a carriage.” (Sirius)
“What are going to do, Aniki? Do we need to prepare for a battle?” (Reus)
“No, they are not coming for us. They probably have business with the mansion. So… the reason that butler tried to make us leave is because of this?” (Sirius)
“Did you notice anything?” (Emilia?)
“Think about it, who is the owner of the mansion?” (Sirius)
““Wha!?”” (Emilia/Reus?)
There is no mistake that the mana reaction that I felt through [Search] was coming from someone that I have known in the past. The timing was really bad for us to come here.
Even if I try to head out without being noticed, there is only one way for a carriage to pass and there is no space to hide a big thing like our carriage. There is no other way then, let’s just prepare for the worst and face them
I ordered Hokuto not to get in the way of the incoming carriage, and when we moved our carriage, the disciples were whispering at the rear.
“Hey, do both of you know who is coming?” (Reese)
“It’s the owner of the mansion. It is the bad person who made fun of Aniki and Erina-san.” (Reus)
“Sirius-sama’s… that…” (Emilia)
While Emilia was wondering of what to say, a carriage appeared from the road and stopped in front of the entrance. At any rate, it was a large carriage. It seemed the carriage was enough to fit five people but the roof had been scattering off the branches that stretched in the way.
The man who sat on the coachman seat looked suspiciously at us but he ran to open the door of the carriage without saying anything.
“The road is still narrow as ever, Father. Shouldn’t you think about it soon?” (??) (TLN: The word for ‘Father’ is Chichiue.)
“That’s right. We need to make it wider.” (Bardomyl)
As I expected, the once my father came out of the carriage, Bardomyl Dorianus. It seems that his stomach is even bigger compared with what I saw five years ago but there isn’t much changes in appearance.
And the one came out from behind was a bit handsome tall young man. In some respect, his features look similar to Bardomyl, and he called him father. He is probably my…
In addition to that, a man and a woman came out from the carriage. They are probably an escort because they are dressed like adventurers while having weapons.
The escorts noticed us and turned their weapon but Baldomyl stopped with extended hands.
“You… why are you here?” (Bardomyl)
“Father, do you know them?” (??)
“Hmmm. A foolish man who threw away our family name after paying the money. He was once your half-blood brother.” (Bardomyl)
“You are the one who is foolish…” (Emilia)
They seemed didn’t hear what Emilia muttered but I also agree with her. Whether Reese also noticed the situation or not, she was touching my back with a slightly sad face.
“What are you doing in such place? Did you feel like returning back home now?” (Bardomyl)
“That’s impossible. I came here because I had small business, but I am about to leave now.” (Sirius)
“Hmm, I don’t what you want to do, but I’m not going to let you leave in silence. There is something I would like to hear from you.” (Bardomyl)
“Since I have nothing to do here, please excuse me.” (Sirius)
