Chapter 21

Chapter 21: 21

Rike comes home early today. I said that I would pick you up again, so why don’t you do it tomorrow, but I am eager to come by today, so I asked. If I’m too messy, the sun goes down and it’s dangerous, so I’ll have Rike pack up his stuff too so I can get home soon.

Luckily (?) he didn’t know when to leave the field, so he was able to pack it up and leave at any time, and he immediately came down from upstairs. But……

“Are you all right? The luggage.”

“Yeah, that’s why I’m here.”

“I see.”

Like was carrying a Zach half his size. Did you apply it during the journey or there are signs of repairs everywhere. But I’m sure Rike’s right, I’ve come this far with this luggage, so is it okay to walk?

“Shall we go now? Even though Thermia is here, it’s tough when the sun sets.”

“Okay, parent!

Answer well, Like. In time, let’s make the parent call stop……

The three of us go down the street in a hurry. Me and Thermia, anyway, Rike swallowed a good amount of booze, and even though his luggage is huge, he’s got a good foothold. Does this mean Dwarf…… And I got to the forest entrance twenty minutes or so earlier than usual.

“We’ll go in the woods from here on out, so don’t fall off.”

“Yes, Parent”

“In case anything goes wrong, Atashi will find you, but don’t shout. If it’s bad, I might call it in.”

Thermia beware.

“Yes. Okay.”

“I’ll take a break in about an hour, so good luck with that.”

“Yes!”

And we started going through the woods. Rike wasn’t enough to worry about, but he’s still not used to walking all the way through the woods, occasionally following the roots of trees, grass, etc. Still don’t make us lag behind. I was able to follow you until the first break.

“Like, how’s your leg? Can you tell me if it hurts or something?

“No, I’m fine. Nothing.”

“Where I say this, it’s the most dangerous thing to do. Tell me as soon as you’re uncomfortable.”

“Yes. Okay, parent.”

And when I left again for an hour and a little more, I got to my house. Our house is nestled in thin lights before the critical sun sets. On the road, in the end, Rike never complained that his legs hurt.

“This is our house, our workshop.”

“Wow, you’re pretty big”

“Well.”

At least it’s big enough to suddenly show up and freak out.“Is your leg okay?

“Yes. I’m fine! It’s easier to walk than I thought!

“Right. Just get inside.”

I used the key to unlock it and open the door.

“Yes!”

Rike going in with the patties. Thermia follows after that.

“Thermia”

I spoke up there.

“Hmm? What?

“Thanks.”

I had noticed that Thermia was walkable and, moreover, had chosen a route unlikely to meet other creatures.

“Ooh…”

Thermia enters the house feeling lit and hasty. There’s some payback when Rike says he’s a parent and he laughs, but this guy, he’s cute at saying this.

“You live in the same workshop.”

Dwarf values say equals family living in the same workshop.

“Sounds like it.”

Looking at Thermia for a moment, she was shrinking and drinking soup about how much she was getting back on her feet. What do you say?

“Well, that’s what I say, so two women go in the bedroom, a man goes in the study, by room division. This is the owner of this house, and it cannot be changed at my discretion, the parent of the workshop.”

“Yes.”

“Heh.”

Rike and Thermia reply. Maybe you’re not convinced, but I’m gonna have to push you through here with this.

“Well, that’s patience until we can have each room,”

“With that said, do you have wood?

“Oh. I’ve got enough to make sure…… should be. It’ll be dry soon, and we’ll work on it tomorrow.”

“Okay!” “Ooh.”

Thus, we had one more new resident in our house.
