Exe!

"Onee-chan, ahn"

"Father! Selen!"

When she opened the door, her long-awaited father Beo-san and sister Serena jumped at Exe-chan.

... we're hugging each other.

It was a face to face tears.

I'm so glad.

The three of them...... hug each other hard, just crying.

You don't need words, do you?

According to what I heard when I protected Beo and Serena in the [Dark Auction], the village was devastated, so I was pessimistic that the divorced wife and her older daughter would not be alive.

But he couldn't give up and said he wanted to go to the "Duke of Artemina" to find it.

I've been training to be strong for that.

I haven't found my wife yet, but I'm really glad I found Exe-chan.

I watched the tears reunite... as expected, the tears and runny nose are in a state of flood.

My uncle is vulnerable to this kind of thing.

Especially since it's a reunion of parents and children... my uncle is really crying.

Nia, Lily, Chappie, and Saya are also crying, but it seems that I'm the only one crying like a jerk with my uncle's heart.

Because I can't stop it... I can't help it.

I just remembered that even in the world where I was originally, I cried 100% when there were scenes like this in drama.

The pile of tissues piled on the table was a real reminder.

Right now, I'm messing up a lot of towels.

We left the room to keep our parents and children out of the water for a while.



I moved to the next room and gave the tea to Pup-san, a bear and Porse-chan, a raccoon who was coming with me.

"What do you two want to do in the future?Do you have any wishes? ”

I asked them to decide what to do next.

Since the slave contract has been terminated and you are free, I'm willing to support you if there is anything you want to do.

"I'm a pedestrian originally... but, uh... is there anything I can do for you, Mr. Grimm, if possible?I don't need a salary. I want to repay you for saving my life. "

Pup-san bowed his head to me after he had a slightly thought-provoking face.

"I see... if I can ask you, I have a job to take care of my children and work in the fields with the clans I've created."I don't have enough manpower, so it would be helpful if I could ask for it.Of course, I'll pay you well. ”

"Oh, really!?" Please do!I love children, so it's not hard at all to take care of them.Fighting isn't strong, but you can do hard work, so you can do field work.And I really don't have to pay you. ”

"It would be helpful if you could do me a favor." However, there is only one condition.That means... you'll get a salary commensurate with your work. Isn't it nice? "

I said that with a smile.

Mr. Pup seemed to understand my intentions and said "yes" and nodded heavily.

I made a firm handshake with Mr. Pup.

"Um... let me work with you, too"

This time, Porcelain, a raccoon, offered to say something.

"Are you okay, too? Do you want to work here?"

"Yes, there are no more villages..."

That's right.

This child's village was also destroyed by a monster attack.

Probably no more family.

I didn't dare ask about it.

I didn't want to bring my sad memories back to life.

"Okay, I'll take care of it."Do you have any work you want to do? "

"I'll do anything. It's just... I want to be strong."I want to be able to fight bad adults!I want to defeat monsters too! "

Porceaux is a calm child, but she seems to have something to think about, and her tone of voice has gradually grown stronger.

"That's right." Get in my clan and you'll be all right!I think I can be stronger. I'm going to teach my kids defense techniques so they can protect themselves, and I'm also supporting them to become adventurers if they want to. "

In my words, Porsey stood up with her eyes shining.

"Adventurer!? I want to be an adventurer!"

... a strong determination is flourishing.

You really want to be an adventurer, even though you felt terrified when you were made to carry people in the labyrinth?

"Yes! I want to be strong!"Like Mr. Grimm and the others! Please!Even if my loved ones are attacked by monsters, I want to be able to protect them! "

It's still a great determination.

That feeling is real, isn't it?

Perhaps... the monsters were also responsible for destroying the village.

Of course, I was treated badly afterwards.

Alright, I'll help you become an adventurer.

Thank you!

Porcelain broke her face.

I shook hands with Porsey.

--CON, con

It's the sound of knocking on the door.

Mr. Beo and the others?

Here you go.

After all, it was Beo-san's parents and children who came in.

"Thank you so much, Grimm.Help us not only, but even Exe.I will definitely return this favor for the rest of my life! "

Beo said that and lowered his head deeply.

Exe-chan and Selen-chan together are bowing their heads together.

"No, no, it's fine." I was really surprised when I found out that one of the people I accidentally helped was Beo's daughter.Lily and Chappie noticed that they resembled Serena-chan. "

When I said that, the Beo family thanked Lily and Chappie and hugged them.

Lily and Chappie were sniffing their bodies like they were shining odors.

It's so cute!

"Pup-san, Porse-chan, I heard from Exe."The two of you always said you were there to help. Thank you very much. ”

Beo bowed her head, thanking Exe and the two of you who had been together.

Indeed, it would have been lucky for Exe-chan to have these two people before she was taken as slaves.

He seemed to be helping me a lot.

Even in this [Stampede], Mr. Pup ran with Exe and Porse-chan in his arms first.

If you hadn't done so, Exe-chan and the others might have been seriously injured.

Worst case scenario, he might have lost his life.

Pups and Pose once again greeted Beo's parents and children and shook hands with each other.
