Speaking of which... After coming to the house and telling him how it was going, Carter was taking his time drinking tea and getting introductions from the Princesses of Stephania, Elliot and Pietro.

They got used to things like Ortona, Ramrya, and Eclair, which were relatively small in stature and less swordswallowing in appearance, and gradually moved to Lavine, Flamia, followed by Belius to Corliss......, and to a larger stature or swordswallowing appearance.

"Look. I'm very much in love."

"Mmm... right. Nice to meet you, Belius."

Cynthia strokes Belius gently and Carter greets Belius at a slightly sobering pace. Belius, speaking, lay his jaw on the floor asleep, overlapping his forelegs and moving his neck gently to respond. Maybe that's Belius' concern not to intimidate you with that.

Harold and Cynthia...... seem to have made a good impression on the percentage carters after taking Carter's story.

The two were accustomed to the demons, and Harold used to feed Corliss with ore.

"We're done talking."

and make Carter listen to everyone like that and the upside of what he talked about in the carriage with his father and Daryl.

You should be assured that you are going to meet with Carter and his parents and that, regardless of their content, you are not thinking about punishment, etc.

"But... my dads are gone..."

Carter, who heard from me, lays his eyes down.

"I don't think you're running away, I think you went to talk to the next town. Well, maybe Dad knows something."

Talking about it, a carriage came in front of the house carrying the fathers.

"... sorry, Theodore"

When I picked up the fathers to the front door, they lowered their heads from Daryl, who came out of the carriage and ran.

"Hmm, why would Daryl apologize?

"No...... I went to their parents to talk to them. What do you think of your current relationship with Theodore, or what you're going to do? So... I think that's what's causing the disturbance."

Right...... From Darryl's point of view, given the demands of the Carters, they'll realize that they're keeping Darryl safe with their mouths. Then you will ask yourself to take responsibility for what is happening now?

"We should have acted more cautiously when it came to making noise like this. From Theodore."

"It's annoying, I don't think so."

When he told Darryl to get ahead of his words, Darryl opened his eyes.

"That's what Daryl thought of as his heir, isn't it? I don't think he did anything from me. But it's just like I said in the carriage. I don't refuse to talk to you. So... maybe this is a good opportunity. Thank you, Daryl."

Thanks again, Daryl looked surprised, but eventually nodded quietly and closed his eyes.

"Okay. I'm not just gonna regret what happened anymore, either. I think it's the Lord's job to solve the problems that have arisen - and I will."

Daryl, who said so and looked up, had a resolute look on his face. I guess Daryl's words are somewhere to think of for King Melvin and Queen Eldraine, for the Stephania princesses and for her father who came out of the carriage. The kings of Melvin were quietly listening to Daryl's words.

If you decide and act on something, the situation will change, for better or worse. It's probably the job of the exchangers to solve this and the problems that erupt, to ease them, and to explore as many landings as possible that are laughable.

It's not as easy as saying it with your mouth, and there's a heavy burden involved... but it's not a good story for me to talk about it when I keep my distance from such things. At least, though Daryl's thoughts are preferable.

Turn to your father so he can change his mind. Behind his father - from inside the carriage, the children, Carter's companions, are peeking into his face.

"Dad, Carter is here to protect you. I think I'll share with the other kids and explain what Carter told me, so please go inside the house."

"Mm-hmm. I... have been consulted by the residents, too. Let me also talk about it."

Otherwise, it's hard to even think about asking in the carriage.

I think it would be a prerequisite to talk about the upside and reassure them, just like I did to Carter first.

"Can I say I'm sorry..."

"Thank you... maybe not."

The kids also talked to Carter and everyone about how they said that.

The children of the inhabitants are confused about what to say to me. You came to me with the intention of apologizing, but the party's kid told me you didn't have to apologize.

"It's okay. I'm telling you how I feel."

Answering that, the children turned to us after seeing each other and nodded with a serious look.

"Therefore, it would be helpful if you could ask all concerned about the escape."

"I know. The escape was brilliant inside."

When I told him to joke, he replied with a gentle smile as he responded.

Soldiers, too. It's not like they're criminals, and I think if they're criminals, they've locked them in a place where they can see what's going on inside, so sometimes it's easy to escape. It would also consider measures to prevent recurrence in the event of a similar incident.

"Well then... let me also talk from me"

Father says where the story came from, he gets a serious look.

"As I mentioned a little earlier, the residents came to me to talk to me about apologizing for what they had done to Theo and Lisa. I thought you were... alienated from me. Because there is a part of us that cannot be held responsible if our actions result in inconvenience to the Count's territory... so we are here to talk about whether we should do so beforehand. I took their story and promised to set up some course and steps."

...... oh. Is that why you went to your father?

Certainly. Sometimes my father and I are involved in demons, so externally, I am acting as if I am alienated.

I am the direct minister of King Melvin... and if we buy disharmony against those in power who are unfaithful to the lord, it is possible that we will be slightly beyond our own responsibility.

Requesting prior permission from the Lords is understandable and natural.

But if that's what you're saying... I guess their feelings have already been decided.

"I was guessing the residents were going to the neighboring town to persuade the parties,"

"Exactly. I don't want the soldiers who were searching for the children to put a cross spear in the persuasion that I said so, so I have some information or I'm not there... but I know exactly where I'm going. If the children are protected, they will be contacted afterwards, and in this case, there will be no way."

Right. If you're saying the kids are running away, it's a mistake to feel ahead of time.

I think Dad panicked a lot when he had a problem at the earthen pit, but when he met with me, he was protected. I have dinner plans, and if I think I've been protected, I've been escaped again, etc., so I come and go to the city and my mother's house... it seems like a lot of things are going on.

"So, what about contacting the neighboring town?"

"I'm already doing people and moving about it. They probably don't think you've arrived yet, because you flew here before."

Oh. I might have that.

But, well, after we talked in the carriage, we got the first move, and now the kids have protection, so they can get in touch with me about my arrival.

After that, if you check to see me again, you'll be ready in advance.

"I see. Then maybe you'll be back in less time. If they're ready, we're ready to meet anytime."

"Okay. I'll tell you that word for sure."

Dad nodded quietly, saying so.

Take a gentle, deep breath. I still don't know what they're talking about and how I'm going to answer them. Either way, I guess if it's too late for a few more hours, I'll be seeing them, too.
