"Because of that! Let's take care of the kids together!
"Beh, I don't mind..."
Becoming friends with Chloe, and completely floating, I nodded without a word or two at the invitation from her - a word she would normally absolutely refuse.
Help with the orphanage.
It's a story that I was and am forgiven for.
But, my friend's! If Chloe says so, well, I thought I could go through it.
... I had my first friend and he was up perfectly. Even though I knew I would regret it later, I couldn't say "I don't like it".
Luke looks at me with a raw warm smile, by the way.
When I glanced, I said, "I'm your daughter's only butler. If the lady says she will, of course I will help," but it was obvious that he was interested in this situation.
... I suspect it's a return of interest just now.
"So, but I, I've never dealt with a child. What am I supposed to do?
Soon, around us, there was a bunch of little filthy... no, little kids. Will there be about ten of them? Everyone is watching us with their eyes full of expectations.
Unexpectedly, she grinned as she turned her gaze to Chloe for help.
"It's easy. For example, I was reading a picture book to the kids earlier. And then I think I can sing you a song, teach you simple calculations, and play with you."
"I see. If I can teach you how to calculate..."
That's about it. I managed to get under my feet, and I heard a young voice.
"Beautiful sister, sing your song!
"Huh...!
With eyes full of anticipation, the kids were pulling the hem of my skirt.
Chloe slaps her hand with pleasure.
"If you're asking for the kids, you have to respond! Lili's song, I want to hear it too"
"Huh? Huh?
My cheeks are cramped.
I can't do that.
As he sent Luke his gaze for help, he nodded in the face.
"If there is hope, isn't it the lady's mission to respond?"
"What's a mission, a mission! I don't have a mission!
- This man! You know I'm in trouble, and you're in the stream!
"Yes, no, I can't... or I'll teach you calculations instead..."
As I nearly cried, I managed to present what I was likely to be able to do, but the voices of the children sounded as if they had chorused.
"Oh no! I like your song!
"Hino!
Again, the hem of the skirt to be pulled.
"Good luck, Lili!
Chloe's smile, no offense at all, is hard right now.
But a song? You want me to sing a song?
"Wow, I'm not a good singer..."
Sometimes I sing about my nose, but it's not something I can show off in public.
"Fair enough, fair enough! Ma'am, I've been through everything!
Luke is the ghost who comes on board with everything he can to talk.
I insisted it was desperate and impossible, but I got a song request from everyone and ended up singing.
- Ugh, I didn't take on the help of an orphanage or anything just because my first friend asked me out.
But regrettably, it is a later festival.
I chose one song out of the nursery rhymes that seemed as easy as possible, even though I disagreed.
I made it a nursery rhyme because I thought even the kids would understand this.
And because the melody was simple and I couldn't get the sound off. I can't even take it off the point that it's short.
"Because I only sing once! This is a broken service! Listen to me!
I didn't think I could grow up with my child, but in half tears, I also want you to forgive me for making some arrogant remarks.
I sit in the congregation because I am too embarrassed to stand and sing, etc. The children have gathered around me.
♪
I raised my voice almost to the point of being damned. About a minute in time.
When I finished singing, I turned my face bright red and told everyone.
"That's it! You can laugh if you want. Anyway, I'm a bad person. If you punish me for this, you'll never ask me again. But there's no choice, is there? I've never sung in public before!
In an unexpected place, I scratched a shame I didn't have to scratch.
Come on, everyone's gonna laugh at you for being bad. 'Cause even though it's an easy song, I didn't really sound nervous, and I actually wrote the wrong lyrics. I think my voice was shaking too.
There are no praiseworthy elements anywhere.
……
Hear stories about children being cruel in every world. I'm sure they'll make fun of you scattered. But by contrast, I can't say a word back. I have a sense of failure. "Right," I said, and I had to endure.
I've lived fifteen years as a duke's warrant, but I've never felt more unhappy than I am now.
- It's hard to help an orphanage. No matter how much a friend asks, I won't do it again.
Waiting for the shanty to come down, thinking about something completely irrelevant.
"Eh."
During the song, unexpectedly one of the children who had remained silent said as he looked up at me rising from the congregation seat.
"I love your song."
"Huh..."
Because the words said were unexpected, or for a moment, completely incomprehensible. When I accidentally stared at the child in front of me, the other children around me said one after the other.
"Yeah. You sure weren't good, and you were wrong about the song. But I was listening and it felt so good"
"Me too!
"Me too!
"Me too!
I don't see any lies in the faces of smiling and laughing children.
Chloe also said as she stared at the children.
"Yeah. I agree with everyone. Sure, is Lili tone-deaf? I thought so, but it was so much more comfortable than that. Even though I'm tone-deaf, it makes me feel good about even removing the sound... it's so strange, but when I hear it, it calms me down."
"Huh? Huh?
I didn't think they'd say that. But even Luke nods.
"Sure. The lady's song wasn't very good at flattery either...... right. I know the lady is unconscious, but she sings with magic. That's what we hear as a pleasant melody."
"Magic?"
"Yes, ma'am, you can put magic on the melody. There's no one who can do this. Of course I can't either. Lady, you're surprisingly clever."
"Wow! Lili is amazing!
Chloe hit her hand with joy. The kids are looking at me with sparkling eyes, too.
I've never been seen with that look in my eyes before, so I get weird and upset.
"Eh, but I'm bad at handling magic..."
"There's no right answer to how to handle magic. The lady is probably right for a way to control magic with her voice. But there's very little I can do about it. There are no mentors, so no one can teach them. As a result, the lady is bad at using magic."
……
Listening to Luke, I blinked my eyes.
- I control magic with my voice? I never even thought about that.
"Uh... that means you can't handle magic without singing?
"If you can handle magic with your voice normally, you may not need to sing. But I've talked to the lady before, and I've never felt a magical move. That means…"
I got Luke's gaze, and I looked flashy.
"... I'm not talking about not being able to sing after all.... even though I'm not good at songs"
As embarrassing as that is, you can remain poor with the way you handle magic.
I thought so, but the kids who were listening to us seem to have different opinions.
"Wow! Sister. You can make everyone feel better with your song!
"Your sister's song, it felt so good. Sing again!
"Me too, my sister's song, I want to hear more!
Yes, I've spoken up and begged for the next song.
"Yeah? I can't do it anymore because I'm embarrassed."
Even if you can put magic on the song, I don't want to expose you to any more tone deafness.
When I shook my head sideways with the boom, Chloe laughed happily with the couscous.
"That's good. I really like Lili's song, too. If possible, I want to hear more. No?"
"I mean, I can't. I know what I'm not good at. I just sang it because I thought it was only one time."
"Mm-hmm. So now let's sing together, shall we? Together. That way, I don't think Lili would be the only one embarrassed, and even if the sound was off, it would be hard to notice."
"Wow! We sing songs together!
The kids first endorsed Chloe's suggestion. Then naturally, Luke couldn't possibly disagree.
"That's good. Sure, all together, then I don't think the lady would be ashamed of herself either. Yeah, I'll join you."
"... good courage, Luke. Now that I say I don't like it, I'm not a fool who barely reads the air."
"Really? I suppose it's up to the lady to sing or not?
"... it's not like that"
Luke is about to cry with his livestock. Starting with Chloe, all the kids look at me with a full look of anticipation. I have no one on my side. The status quo, now if I don't read the air and keep saying "I don't like it," I'll be the bad guy.
- Bad guy.
It's a disgusting word that seems to lead to 'Villain Warrant Lady'.
"... really, if everyone sings too. Of course Chloe's gonna sing, right?
"Yeah, sure."
Affirmation returns with a glowing smile.
Yeah, no more, this is a stream you can't run from no matter how you scratch it.
Having given up, I ended up winged singing as many songs together as they wanted.
