Even in my previous life, I called my mom first who was always with me. To have come to understand dad, when was that……, and my memories wandered a little bit.
「……manma」
「Hmm, you can’t say anything other than that huh……however since you can already say that, only one more step and….. This is Papa, I’m Papa~」
「Isn’t it too hard to say Papa? Hiroto, this person is your Papa. Ricardo is what he’s called.」
「……i……au……o」 (TLN: iauo = wikaudo = Rikardo/ missing letters~)
「OOOHH! ……wait, don’t teach him my name, I want him to call me Papa.」
I could only pronounce vowels, 「Ma」 is the only word I can say with that limit. A little bit longer though……4 months have only passed since I was born, so isn’t this the stage where I should be learning to sit.
「……Iauo」
「OOOOOH! Umu, this child might be a genius, Remillia」
「Sigh…What are you saying, darling……though that’s too much of an exaggeration, he might be able to talk soon. When I hear about it from the surrounding stories, in about 3 or more months, he would start to hang on to stuff it seems.」
「Hiroto might already be too fast for a moment. Since, he’s my son and all」
Even though I’m still a baby, my parents are already feeling proud of me. That trust of theirs to me, I don’t want to ever lose that.
I reached out for the edge of the cradle, and firmly held onto it. And while I was practicing on moving, Ricardo lifted me up in his arms with the sound of [Hyoi~].
「Though I still wish for you to stay as a baby for a little more. When wearing a diaper becomes unnecessary at an early time, If we bring you to the church then you’d be treated as the 『Son of the Goddess』」
「That’s right……He’s not even crying when he needs anything but now he’s just clapping his hands」
Though my vocal chords are getting forged when I cry, my mana would decrease with it. Because of that, it came to a point where I use a various of signals to catch Remillia mama’s attention. If she comes to me then, she would roughly draw her real intention.
Though it seems I can get along well it Father and Mother, the problem is, the time that I’ll be needed to talk to the dwellers of this town. Though there are some children who are of the same age as me, if I can’t manage to befriend them then, that would give my parents some worries.
However in the case of Eternal・Magia, my Communication hindrance can be compensated with great effort. Though I feel that to positively enter into a circle of people is a too high wall for me, but if it’s only 10 friends……no, 5 friends. If it’s 3 friends, then I might be able to do it. I want to manage to do that.
