128 8. Interact with Darrell

At night, Tiara Rose thinks a lot as she slowly grabs onto the tub.

First, about the baby in your stomach. I never thought I'd handle magic before I was born. And about Darrell, who easily spotted it.

- For once, you might want to talk to Darrell properly.

It's not that I don't believe in Darrell, but I want to know my brother properly. Besides, I might be able to hear something about children's magic.

"... invite Darrell to tea tomorrow!

Though silent and not much emotional ups and downs for children, I'm sure you'll find a lot of things out when you talk to them.

"If that's what you decide, talk to Filine now!

The treats, too, Darrell prepared something he had never eaten... No, Tiara Rose nodded alone that she would like to make her own.

"Tiara, are you ready for this?

"Yes! Thank you for your help, Dear Aqua"

To invite Darrell to a tea party, Tiara Rose was preparing herself in her room with Aquasteed.

I'm done setting up the table, so all I have to do is wait for it to be time to start.

"There's still a little time to go, so why don't Tiara sit down?"

That's what they say, Tiara Rose gets escorted to the couch by Aquasteed. Since the discovery of pregnancy, I've really become more worried than usual.

"If that's about it, you'll be fine, right?

"It's... of course I know, but I'm not comfortable."

Aquasteed also sits next to Tiara Rose and is sweetened "think it's for me".

"... Yes"

"Thanks"

The dust and aquasteed smiled, slowly putting his hand on his stomach. You look serious, so you're probably thinking about your child's magic.

I've never heard of these precedents before, and there were no maiden games, no episodes like the one where a child was born after the ending.

So utterly unknown -.

"... Extremely, I hear stories of children with magic from within the womb"

"Is that true? I've never heard of it..."

"As I said, it's a pretty rare case. The only reason the story doesn't penetrate is because, after all, we tend to show up in powerful royalty"

So the common people, of course, say that even the nobles rarely have that information out there.

"I've just never heard of something from the inside out like this one, mostly the extent to which I can feel magic"

"Enough magic to bring it outside...... I hope that's not a burden for this kid..."

"Right. If anything happens, I'll do everything I can to protect you."

So if you don't have to look too anxious, Aquasteed can hold you gently.

"There's no other place you can feel so safe."

Tiara Rose is also sweeter than rubbing on aqua steed. Then a kiss came down on his temples, touching his nose, cheeks and finally his lips as they were.

"Cute, Tiara"

"Ah, Dear Aqua..."

Give me another kiss - the moment you think so, a knock sounds in the room with Concon Con. And at the same time, the voice "It's Darrell".

"Oh, it's that time already...... too bad it's time over. I'll see you later..."

That's what I said. Aquasteed kisses Tiara Rose's temples gently and gets up off the couch.

"Dear Aqua, I..."

"Sit down because it's okay. That's about all I can do, right?

When I opened the door, the tense faceted Darrell was immovable upright. Then he bowed his head down and bowed with all the momentum.

"Thank you for inviting me, Sister Tiara, Your Majesty Aquasteed"

"There you are, Darrell"

"I'm not that nervous, and you don't have to call me that hard. Come on, come."

Aquasteed gently touches Darrell's back and prompts him to enter the room.

"Oh, thank you. Uh... well, if it's not your majesty, what can I call it?

"Right...... I'm Tiara's brother, so I don't mind you calling me my brother."

Of course, it can be named after you. When Aquasteed says so, Darrell lets his gaze get lost and thinks about what to do.

"Brother......"

"Oh, that's fine"

"Yes, thank you"

Darrell is relieved to see Aquasteed nod.

"They both look like real brothers"

"Is that true? Sister Tiara. … I'm glad."

Darrell, who was either nervous or faceless, but her fluffy expression softens.

"Come on, let's make it tea. Have a seat, Darrell."

"Yes."

"You don't have to be nervous," Tiara Rose smiles when she sees Darrell sitting across from her.

Make sure Aquasteed also sat next to him, making tea. Darrell is staring at Tiara Rose's hand, and the hand he puts on his lap holds his fist firmly.

- He seems so nervous.

Tiara Rose opens her mouth in an attempt to shake the topic so Darrell can talk easily.

"Today, I tried to prepare a shoe cream a little smaller than yesterday. I have two kinds of cream, yesterday's and chocolate."

Don't hesitate to eat it, Tiara Rose decided to try it with a treat first.

Darrell even blinks his eyes, "It looks delicious," he says. Keep reaching and including chocolate shoe cream in your mouth that wasn't there yesterday.

…… This is delicious... "

"I'm glad you like it."

Following the plain, Tiara Rose is happy that she also liked the chocolate.

Seeing Darrell smiling, I wish he was this close from time to time.

"Thank you, Sister Tiara"

"You're welcome, Darrell. Though I know you're nervous...... can you make it easier for me?

Although it is difficult to do so right away, I want you to smile more and talk a lot. When I honestly told her that, Darrell looked a little troubled.

- Have I said too much?!?

Tiara Rose panicked and shook her head, "I'm not saying I can't do it," she said. I'm not going to force Darrell to do anything he doesn't like.

But Darrell shuts up and regrets that Tiara Rose should have done so after more interaction.

I was happy that my brother was able to do it, and he told me that he had given himself healing and that the child was using magic.

Aquasteed spoke to Darrell as he thought about how Tiara Rose would follow up.

"I just met him, so I still can't help but talk, but if you'd like to tell me about Darrell? Me and Tiara would love to get along better with Darrell."

"Brother...... thank you. Uh, I... don't know much about words, I'm studying. So I thought it might annoy both of us..."

Darrell says there's a lot he doesn't know yet and the letters still can't be read smoothly.

"You were. Darrell, I don't think that's annoying. Let's talk a lot, shall we? It'll be Darrell's study, and I'll be glad to."

"Right. If there's a wrong word, I can tell you."

"Oh, thanks! Glad."

To the words of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Darrell gives us a year-to-year smile. Unlike before, I guess I could smile safely.

"Hehe. Darrell is our brother. Hey, if you don't like it... I want you to tell me how Darrell's been spending it."

"Ah... that's..."

Darrell's expression, which was a smile, clouded, and Tiara Rose blamed herself for it. There's no way we can teach Tiara Rose what Schnaus and Irtiana don't know either, only a few days after we met.

But seeing how Tiara Rose is like that, Darrell is in a hurry this time. Because of me, I put my sweet sister in trouble, he said.

"It's not, Sister Tiara! Um... I can't help but remember my master."

"Master...?

"He taught me the magic of the healing system and raised me. I always called him my master..."

For the first time, I was taught healing magic from Darrell's mouth. And at the same time, Schnauz's predictions had been met.

As far as Darrell's atmosphere is concerned, he appears to have a fondness for his master.

- But now you're our adopted son away from your master, aren't you?

Though there are many patterns of separation, I can't even kind of imagine Darrell being so gentle being loving to his master.

Possibly, he was paying his monthly allowance, but it became impossible. Did Darrell make a mistake and break the gate?

- Darrell can use such amazing healing magic.

I just wondered why we can't be together, and Tiara Rose's thought reaches one possibility.

I rush to try to change the subject, but it's too late.

"The master was gone from the world the day it rained. And then I was alone... and when I was worried that I didn't know what to do, I met my fathers."

"I'm sorry, Darrell. I remind you that it's hard for you. I miss you so much that my master who raised me is dead."

"Your sister is sweet," Darrell surprised when Tiara Rose was about to cry now.

"But... well, you say this emotion is' lonely '"

Until now, Darrell didn't know the words to describe that emotion. What my master didn't tell me, Darrell doesn't know.

So Darrell's mouth count was as low as his silent master's, and he often knows nothing but magic because he lived in a narrow world.

Aquasteed is surprised, too, to say a word of comfort.

"Thanks for talking to me, Darrell. If it's hard again, don't hesitate to tell me."

"Yes, Master Aqua is right. If you miss me, join me in a lot of chatting. Your mother would like to talk to Darrell more."

"Sister, brother...... thank you. I feel a little less lonely."

Having said that, Darrell told me a little bit about herself and her master's memories.

"I've been living in the woods with my master for a long time. I've been to the city a few times a year, and that's about it. So I was surprised the first time I ate a treat"

When it came to the sweet stuff Darrell knew, was it about honey picked in the woods, or was it nuts when it came to purely stand-alone and sweet?

There were no toys, and every day was a magical day.

So Darrell laughed bitterly that it was normal that there was nothing but magic and he was still unfamiliar with the current environment.

"But I want to get used to it quickly for my father and mother who will be nice to me. I don't like being alone..."

"Darrell......"

Darrell was studying desperately, taking care not to be hated. I found it after I left my master, lest I lose this precious place.

Easy, but finished listening to Darrell, Tiara Rose can't stop herself from overflowing with tears. 'Cause I can't believe such a young child had such a hard experience.

Even though it was hard to just talk about his death, he cherishes this place and does his best not to want to lose it.

"Darrell, I'll protect you no matter what!

"Me too, Tiara, I will protect you from your sister! I'm not good at anything but healing magic..."

So if anything happens, Darrell motivates me to rely on Tiara Rose. That's cute, Tiara Rose said, "My brother is so healthy!" and I want to protect you even more.

"Then I have to protect you both."

"If you have Aqua, you have nothing to be afraid of."

"Yes!"

When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed smiled, Darrell replied cheerfully, laughing happily.
