Chapter 207

First…

As usual, when we were a distance from the town, I called Joule and others out.

Joule: (Oniichan, are we going out?)

Feat: (Where are we going this time, Niisama?)

Bolt: (Aniue, is it for work?)

Vector: (Yay~ going out!)

Mile: (So exciting!)

When I called everyone, they all raised their voices happily.

(And so, Oniichan, where are we going?)

"I was thinking of going Northeast to a town called Kelm."

""Kelmm♪~""

It's safe to say that the place of destination is Kelm. It's safe to say, but———

"However, first, let's see… let's go North!"

""Huhhi~?""

(((((Ehh~!?)))))

The children opened their eyes wide after hearing my words.

"If we go to Kelm straight away, taking your running speed into consideration… we would arrive there in about a day?"

(Ah, I see. We would arrive there too fast.)

"You are correct, Feat!"

The first to notice the problem was everyone's older sister-like existence, Feat.

(Is arriving fast not good?)

"I won't say that it's not good, but unnatural? I did not tell everyone that we travel on your guys' back."

Even going by carriage would take several days. Even more than that on foot.

"I should have… exposed you guys sooner."

It's not like I want to hide the existence of Joule and others by any means. I just thought it would be bothersome, so I kept them secret. I did tell about Joule and others to people close to us, that's about it. Well, they think that Joule, Feat and Vector are basically babies, but… that's their charm.

(It would be bothersome… right?)

"Well, yes. I would like to avoid that, I guess."

Yep, I would absolutely love to avoid that. I believe that ruckus would only follow.

(So the danger Allen and Elena would be in won't… increase?)

""Uniyu?""

"Allen?"

"Elena?"

Hearing their names being called, the two were making curious faces, so I patted Joule's head while talking.

"Well, it would be possible for people with bad intentions to chase after us, but that's only a possibility. However, if we do make it public, then you guys will be able to be by Allen and Elena's side all the time, so it should be fine?"

It doesn't have only demerits, it has merits too.

(N~… I think I'm fine with how things are now.)

"… Is that so?"

Oh my? I thought he would agree with announcing their existence to the public, but he unexpectedly refused.

Joule chose to stay in secret.

(I mean, it's troublesome when people kick up a fuss, and I wouldn't like if bad fellows approached Allen and Elena just because of us.)

Well, I understand the feelings of not wanting Allen and Elena to encounter more unnecessary danger… I understand~

(It's fun traveling all over the place like this and we can enter the town in our small forms without any problems too. That's why I am fine with things staying like this.)

Feat, Bolt, Vector, and Mile nodded in agreement with Joule's words.

(Indeed. Niisama, we are fine with things staying as they are.)

(Yep.)

(Yeah!)

(Yes, we are!)

Our children really are good children~
