Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Episode 378: Welcome
Renoir Forest north of King's Capital in Agarta. In its deep woods, three parents and children stand with them. Because this forest is home to many demons, it is difficult to return unless you are a confident adventurer in your arms. Having parents and children in such a place is a very rare sight.
"Come on, we're here."
……
Speaking with a smile was King Agarta's Linos. He looks lovingly at his daughter, Alilia, as she clutches to her feet. But Alilia doesn't break her anxious look and stares at the back of the woods. It was Mae, her mother, who looked at her like that with a tender eye. May gazes alternately at Alilia and Linos, looking deep into the woods.
"... Coming"
When Linos shrugged without telling anyone, he wondered if the forest trees had made a move as if they were some kind of creature, and from then on the entrance to the village appeared.
Let's go.
"Are you sure Mummy's in this place?
I couldn't imagine that glorious Soleil would be behind such a grassy forest.
About two months after Mummy, Soleil went back inside Silence. Alilia's loneliness, listening to her babysitting songs as she did every night, was taking its limits early. One night Linos, calling Soleil's name while sleeping and seeing Alilia crying, immediately decided to go inside Silence. And he wrote to Vival, the chief and mother of Soleil, telling him, for once, that he wanted to see his wife. The reply was immediate, and Silius was inscribed to welcome the clan by name.
May, Alilia's mother, thought Linos' behavior sweet but was pleased that she moved instantly for her daughter. Besides, I was also worried about Soleil's physical condition, who said that when caged, he would not receive the protection of the Spirit and that his resistance would fall to the extreme. Silius has a well-armed pharmacist, but still, as for May, I was worried about Soleil's health. May came all the way here to talk about going to see Soleil with Alilia of Linos. There, one of the reasons why I feared Soleil, with weak resistance, that these two would be infected with some disease by going. Mae made a busy schedule and decided to take a day off and accompany the two of them.
With a familiar look and a nostalgic look on his face, Linos takes Alilia's hand into the village. That's when something came down from the sky. Surprised Alilia hides right behind her father.
"I've been waiting for you"
Three beautiful silences have spoken with a smile. Linos apologizes for the disrespect he suddenly pushed and politely thanks him for picking me up. And with the guidance of the Silences, they entered the village.
"Long time no see"
Vival, the chief, welcomed the three of them with a smile in a tent-like building where he himself lived. With the same beauty as usual, May unwittingly turns her gaze to Linos. But he talks to Vival pale, with the same look as usual.
"How's Soleil?
"Yeah. I'm fine, too. Go ahead, look at your face."
With that said, she stood up, guided the Linos outside, and turned her gaze to the giant tree growing in front of her. And when you mumble some kind of song-like rhythm, that giant tree changes into the shape of a person who looks at you.
"Mummy!"
Alilia runs out with her hands up. The giant tree had changed to the shape of Soleil. She takes Alilia with a gentle smile.
"Mummy! Mummy! I missed you......"
Alilia is weeping as she nods her face at Soleil's chest. The head, Soleil gently stroked.
"How's it going?
"Thank you, Master May. Thanks to you, it's going very well."
That said she stroked her stomach gently. If you look closely, your stomach is pounding and swollen. May hands on there. And Linos slowly put his hand on Soleil's stomach, too.
"You'll have a healthy child, won't you, Soleil? And come back to the mansion as soon as possible. I miss Alilia."
"Yes. I'll do my best. Alilia, whenever you get lonely, you can come to Mummy's. From your mansion to the entrance to this village, there's a crossroads, so you should come along."
"Yeah. But..."
Alilia gave a happy look for a moment, but soon turns to a lonely look.
"Mummy can get sick easily, so you shouldn't go..."
With that said, Alilia looks at May's face. May shakes her head small with a slightly harsh look on her face.
"Dear May, if you will, just once a week, please take Alilia to the village"
"But..."
"There are forest spirits here that my mother is under contract to. Not as good as the Divine Dragon, but the highest ranked spirits among the forest spirits protect you. So..."
"Mother. I'll wash my hands properly. I also brush my teeth. So let me go to Mummy's."
That's what Alilia says. She bows her head to peck. To that appearance, Linos' chest trembled. What a cutie she looks...... Remembering some emotion, he saw May's face next door. Noticing that gaze, she crouched softly and gently held Alilia's shoulder.
"Well, just once a week, let me interrupt you here. You must not make Mummy sick, so be sure to keep your mother's words. All right?
To the words, Alilia gave a serious look and nodded cocklessly. May, who saw it, turned his gaze to Soleil and gave a small courtesy, and also to Vival, who was holding back beside him.
"We at Silence are always happy to welcome you. However, Alilia is still small, so you're a little worried. Somebody better pick me up."
"No, you don't have to do that..."
"Dear Chieftain, I'll take care of that role!
Suddenly, I hear a woman. When I looked in the direction of my voice in surprise, there, a beautiful girl with big eyes stood in arms.
"Dear Linos, May, Long time no see!
Suddenly, both Linos and May get a surprised look because they called their names. Girls talk to them like that, with a full smile.
"Heh heh. You had such a cute girl! You look just like May, you look smart. I'll pick her up. Don't worry. I haven't seen you in a long time. Let me know what you've been up to!
"Um... sorry, who?
"Huh? It's me, me. Don't you remember?... Master May?
"Uh... sorry. Who was it?
"Oh no... terrible"
In the girl's eyes, tears accumulate all over her. Vival is laughing at the couscous as he watches how it goes.
"I can't help but think you two don't know. The man is Irisal."
"Irisal!?"
Linos and May look at each other and are amazed. And the two of them take a serious look at the face of the girl they called Irisal.
"You... Is that a hikikomori irisal?
"That's rude! I wasn't hikikomori! I was just worried about you in the room!
"Ha...... Sure, it's been years since then... I never thought you'd be so beautiful."
"You've been very good at flattery, Master Linos"
"No, not flattery. I really didn't know you had to say your name."
"Right, I didn't know either. You're really beautiful...... I miss you."
With that said, Linos, May, and Irisals laugh at each other. But in those days, in the mansion of Linos in the Imperial capital, something terrible was about to happen.
……
in a room with a transitional junction set up for the outing of the imperial mansion. There, one girl stood up. She was asking around with Kyoro Kyoro, but eventually with a determined look, she turned her gaze to the metastatic junction in front of her.
The girl, the eldest daughter of the Linos family, was Eryl......
