At the Northern Fort

New Families (2)

When we finished the snowball match, the three of us were chatting, and there came a knight with two eyes, who finished his morning job.

Ah, the cigarette cancers!

"Mill, you kept me waiting." Shall we go to the cafeteria?... what were you doing? "

The two-eyed knight muttered as he looked at the training ground full of holes and the snowy kicks that had been hit with too many snowballs.

After the hole was dusted, we all got snowed in.

I see.

The knight with one eye lifted me up and stroked my head, saying, "Thank goodness." Both Rekka and the Knight of the Eyes are sweet to me, so I can't get angry at you for filling up the training ground. Baby foxes are the best.

After that, the five of them go to the cafeteria, and I get rice. Today, it was meat with chestnut sauce, so I raised the tension and shook my tail. I couldn't even wait while the Knight of Eyes was carrying meat, so I walked up to the Knight of Eyes and wandered around.

I'm scared to kick you.

I licked my mouth as I looked up at the bitterly smiling eye-eyed knight. Drools are coming out infinitely.

"Eat slowly."

As soon as the two-eyed knight put the meat on the floor, I clung to the finely chopped meat so that I could eat it easily.

However, when I took a bite, it calmed down a little, so I sat down and chewed the meat slowly. Because I love meat, I'm desperate. It's embarrassing.

Looking at me who suddenly returned to reason and served me a classy meal, the two-eyed knights, Kix, Tina and Reka sat down at the table.

People in this country of Aridra eat two meals a day, so the knights often don't eat at noon, but Kicks, who seems to be hungry, goes to the kitchen and gets an apple, chewing on it.

While the Knights of the Eyes are talking about work that I don't quite understand, they quietly advance their meals. The other knights who come to the cafeteria for a lunch break call out and stroke their heads when they find me.

Hey, Mill.

Is it good?

That's good. That's good meat. But if you stroke it so hard, your head will shake and you won't be able to chew well.

The knights finished their meals, but now the Battalion Leader came to the cafeteria. When I gently put my face out of the entrance of the cafeteria, I checked that I was there and flashed my face a little, but I quickly tightened my expression and came here.

Good morning, Branch Commander.

Good morning.

It was already noon, and while exchanging such greetings with Kicks, the Squad Leader sat down in his free seat. After finishing the meal, I'll have a knight with two eyes on my lap.

"Mill, how's Snowlea doing?" How are you doing? "

As he sits in his chair, the commander asks me.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Since my stomach has grown, it seems a bit tough.

The spirits don't seem to have anything to do with it, so I'm not sleeping in it, but it looks like I'm just a little tired when my stomach gets heavy and I move.

It would be nice to have a tiny snake figure in my stomach, but the spirits are like human beings when they're fetal.

"The bed you took so quickly is very helpful." If I could stay in the shape of a fox, I'd go to bed on the ground. "

Mother is always in human form when she's pregnant, so it's pathetic to let her sleep on the hard ground in a cave where she lives.

"Oh, I'm glad."

The Branch Commander said that he was relieved. Considering your mother, it was the commander who suggested that you take the bed in the fort's dormitory to the residence. With the help of my father and the Knight of the Eyes, the bed was transported to the habitation of Mount Snowrea. My father and the Knight of the Eyes took the bed and flew.

"It's close to childbirth, and if anything happens to Snowlea, it'll be tough."

While saying so, the head of the support group is frightened. You may be looking forward to the birth of a child of the Spirit as much as I am.

The commander of the regiment seemed to like the animals in the hood, but he said, "Mill's younger brother is cute as well as the snake," when they were alone the other day.

Kicks swallows the apple he was chewing.

Commander, you're so excited that you're going to have your own baby, right?

"... that's not true?"

A group leader who is trying to maintain a majestic face with his eyebrows folded. Kicks continues to smile as he sees it.

"But I'm really looking forward to it." A little snake, huh

It's a boy, I wonder what kind of child will be born.

”Whether it resembles the spirit of water or has a completely different personality, it must be cute.”

Tina and Reka were having fun too.

"Will the Son of the Water Spirit eat?"

“Maybe you'll start to eat when you see mills eating.”

It seems that the Commander of the Legion and the Knight of the Eyes imagined that the little snake was eating the finely chopped meat I was eating. My cheeks are loose.

……

I'm glad that everyone is excited about my brother, but what is this feeling?

I want my brother to be born early, and I'm looking forward to it, but if everyone keeps talking about it, it'll be a bit frightening.

While the conversation was booming, the five of them didn't look at me at all, and the knight with one eye stopped the hand that was stroking my head.

"Mmm..."

I fumbled and jumped from the knight's lap onto the table. It's bad manners to sit on a table, so I don't usually do that.

Mill?

Everyone looked at me strangely as I stood at the table.

However, satisfied with the attention, I silently returned to the knee of the knight with one eye.

"What did you want to do?"

Doubtfully, the two-eyed knights I was used to behaving strangely started talking about my younger brother, who was close to being born again.

No, it's okay to talk about my brother. It's fine if my brother's story makes me laugh, but I want you to remember that I exist. I'd like you to tell me about my brother.

Because my brother is cute, but I'm also cute.

There's a cute little fox right here!

"...... Mill?"

Once again, everyone was puzzled by me jumping on the table and standing in the middle.

But Kicks smiles when he realizes the meaning of the action.

"Ah, I see. Mill, you're burning up your brother." Everyone keeps talking about my brother. "

I was embarrassed by the star and quietly returned to the knight's knee. Then he turned his body towards the knight with one eye, so that everyone could not see his face.

Fufu, you're cute, Mill-chan.

"Everyone thinks about Mill-sama first, so it's okay."

Tina and Reka said so, and somehow they were no longer able to collapse. To be jealous of my younger brother and claim your existence is a shameful thing to do as a sister.

"I'm not jealous at all."

I look back gently and say hello. Then, while muttering "cute," Kicks laughed teasingly next to the branch commander, who was covering his face with both hands.

Well then, let's talk about Mill's brother again.

I grumble angrily. If you want to talk about your brother, I won't forgive you if you don't tell me how cute I am.
