Chapter 742 – Angel’s Melancholy
In a big room of my mansion in Big Tree Village, the adult angels are all gathered.
Tier.
The strongest who is known as the “Angel of Annihilation”.
…..
Strongest?
「Please take note that it means strongest among angels.」
Ah, right.
She’s also Tiselle and Aurora’s mother.
「They are both growing well.」

Gran Maria.
One of the three who make up the “Angels of Holocaust”.
Roze Maria’s mother.
「Lancer Gran Maria. Please call me that.」
Is that what everyone’s calling you?
「No, I’m the one who started calling that myself. If I keep calling myself like that, others will follow in time.」
Heh.

Kuudel.
One of the three who make up the “Angels of Holocaust”.
「Hundred Shot, Hundred Hit 」
Yeah, whatever it is.
「Glad you agreed. 」
However, that doesn’t mean you have to throw the real horned spear in practice.
「I love how it explodes. Also, I have to make that title a reality…..」
So, that’s your plan.
I’d like to praise you for trying to make it real but….
A hundred, that’s a lot, isn’t it?
「I really want to show everyone that I really made an explosion a hundred times.」
You don’t have to.
「Ehhh」
I’ll only allow two.
「Yay」
Laladel’s mother.

Corone.
One of the three who make up the “Angels of Holocaust”.
Tormaneh’s mother.
……
「I’ll do my best to stand out more.」
No, you don’t have to push yourself.
「No, I’ll be the only untitled of the trio if I don’t.」
It’s not like you’re going to be forgotten but I guess it’s great that you’re willing to work hard for it.
Do your best.
「I will.」

Suaruriu and Suarukou.
Twin angels.
「We are twins but that doesn’t mean we should be treated as one.」
「I agree. Please treat us as individuals.」
No, even if you say that.
「What do you mean? Are you saying that we have no individuality aside from being twins?」
「Is that it!」
You’re saying that but, could you please stop doing everything together?
「But it makes us happy to do things together.」
「Right, it puts a smile on our faces.」

Kierbit.
Daughter of Malbit, the angel’s chief.
The former heavenly wings shrine maiden of the Garret Kingdom.
She seemed too strict regarding the discipline of their angel race…..
「Maa, you should learn that there’s no point in talking about the details.」
Her character seemed broken now.
Well, I guess since it’s been a while.
「It was hard to get the Garret Kingdom to let me go.」
You being here means you’ve succeeded in convincing them.
「I escaped.」
Is that alright?
「There’s no point in talking about the details.」
Is that really alright?
-0-
Malbit.
Kierbit’s mother and the current chief of the angels.
She looks calm on the outside but she’s also a schemer so you should never let your guard down on her.
When Kierbit relinquished her role as the heavenly wings shrine maiden, she made another identity called Gobit to take Kierbit’s role.
「I’m also the chess champion of Big Tree Village.」
She proudly puffed her chest out but it was because Kuroyon was waiting for her outside the room.
Kuroyon is evenly matched with Malbit in chess.
Malbit is the current champion but there was a time when Kuroyon was the champion.
「Heh, I will defend my title this winter too so I can enjoy my kotatsu to the fullest.」

Ruincia.
She’s the vice chief of the angels.
She is Tier’s mother and therefore, Tiselle and Aurora’s grandmother.
「Lately, my grandchildren have become cuter and cuter….」
She’s been actively taking care of them which I’m grateful for.
However, can you please stop teaching strange things to Tiselle?
「I’m just educating her as the angel she is so she won’t shame us. Well, she absorbs knowledge as cotton absorbs water so sometimes, I end up teaching her too much…. Tiselle is very good at what she does so all is well.」
Since all is well, I guess it’s okay…..
Tier sends me a signal saying she’s watching over them so I guess it’s really okay.
Thanks.
However, let’s have a family meeting next time Tiselle comes back to the village.
Yeah, we received comment letters about Tiselle from the principal, who is the demon king’s wife, and Randan, the minister of internal affairs.
They’re not complaint letters.
They are opinion letters.
It’s just that, the opening of those letters is basically asking “How’s her education going?”. I hope I’m only overthinking this.
Yeah, I really hope I’m only overthinking.

Raz Maria.
She has gorgeous hair and gorgeous chests.
Her manners are soft and the way she acts makes her more of a goddess than an angel.
But she’s a genuine angel.
Gran Maria’s mother and Roze Maria’s grandmother.
「In terms of excellence as a granddaughter, Roze Maria won’t lose.」
Roze Maria is still small.
Don’t make her compete.
All children are excellent and cute.
Don’t you think so?
-0-
Suarurou.
She’s short and looks like a little girl but she’s the mother of Suaruriu and Suarukou. She’s also the leader of the Rohier faction of the angels.
Formerly antagonistic to the conservative group led by Malbit….now, she sits with her in a kotatsu and even eats tangerines together.
Well, it seems like the conservatives and radical groups have already fallen apart.
Why have they fallen apart?
「Because when the angels learned about the existence of this village, there was no point in being radical or conservative.」
Since Big Tree Village stopped your conflict, I’m happy.
「The angels are united and will work for the benefit of Big Tree Village. I ask for your continued blessings.」
Ah, of course.

Reginleif.
One of the elders of the angels and even the eldest among the elders.
Until recently, she has spent most of her time sleeping but now, she’s getting more active.
「It is important for one’s life to have stimulation.」
Of course.
A moderate amount of stimulation is important.
「I’m even surprised with my appetite these days.」
It’s good that you’re healthy.
The village harvest is increasing so don’t hold back.
「Yes, thank you very much.」
-0-
Is that everyone?
There are other angels that Malbit and Kierbit have brought but they are resting outside the room.
They arrived yesterday and they seem tired from flying over the forest.
I’ll introduce myself to them in order to check if there’s an elder member among the group.
However, it seems like all angels look like young women.
Looking at them, they look more like sisters.
Let me think of it again….
Tier, Gran Maria, and the others.
No way I’ll forget them.
Suaruriu and Suarukou have been in the village for a long time so I won’t forget them.
Kierbit, Malbit, and Ruincia have strong presence so I won’t forget them
Raz Maria is taking care of the little angels.
Suarurou patrols the village whenever she’s here and Reginleif is acting as my bodyguard.
I didn’t forget anyone, right?
-0-
Well, I thought of introducing a group to the angels who came here this winter and there seems to be no problem.
Who am I introducing to them?
The angel children of the village.
They are new adults so they are very curious about them.
Laladel and Tormaneh were brought by the oni maids since they still need to be carried.
Aurora seems to be memorizing their faces.
Roze Maria goes straight to…Raz Maria.
Ruincia, don’t compete.
Ah, Laladel and Tormaneh are still babies so don’t be too hard on them.
Make sure to be gentle.
Suarukou and Suarurou, don’t trick the children by changing places.
This is the reason why everyone recognizes them as “twins”.
「We have to take advantage of us being twins.」
「Right.」
Yeah, yeah.
It’s been a while since you’ve seen each other.
I’m sure you have a lot to talk about.
I had food and drinks prepared.
Feel free to eat and drink.
Ah, those who just arrived, take it easy.
You made it in time for the martial arts tournament but if you push yourselves too hard, you won’t be able to give it your all in battles.
I said that and was about to leave the room with the children in tow.
However, Kierbit stopped me.
Hnn?
Let only the children leave the room?
She also stopped the oni maids from bringing the food and drinks in.
Kuroyon was prohibited from going in too.
What’s the matter?
「We need to discuss something serious.」
What is it?
Not only Kierbit but everyone looks serious.
「I don’t want to say it but….」
I don’t want to hear it but….
It looks like I can’t refuse, can’t I?
Haa, feel free to say it.
「Ehto, it’s about the country we were living…..」
Garret Kingdom?
「It split up.」
….
Eh?
