TDADP chapter 273: Strong child
As the name suggests, Nameless kingdom´s mountain castle is a castle built on the mountain. However, it is not a single mountain, but a mountain range with multiple mountains. The top of the big tree was mortar-shaped, and hundreds of aquatic trees were planted to produce water from the magic power floating in the air. The world tree is deeply rooted in the center so that it sits down. The water produced by aquatic trees overflows from the depressions on the summit and naturally forms several rivers. The abundant amount of water is indispensable to the lives of the people of the Nameless Kingdom.
"I'm the mom, Stark is the child and Mururu-chan is the baby"
At the riverside near the village, playing house is Reteru, a beast girl, Mururu, a depraved girl and Stark, the only son of Isaiah and Laurier, human slaves.
"I also want to be the mom"
"Then, next time Mururu-chan is the mom"
"I also want to do be the dad"
When the three are playing happily, beast boys appear there.
"Reteru, why are you playing with such a guy?"
With that said, the leader boy points to Stark. The boys around him all agree that this is the case. The Nameless kingdom is made up of beastmen, deprived people, fallen demons, demi-humans and slaves who were a negative legacy of Balue. It is not uncommon for the races to disagree with each other because they are not composed of the same race as humans and many adults form groups with the same race. The beastmen's boys are similar. They don't like the beast girl Reteru playing with the children of humans.
"Why cant I play with them?"
Despite Mururu and Stark, who are anxious, Reteru talks back indomitably.
"Isn't it wrong to play with a human?"
"Where is your beastman's pride?"
"Let's play with us beastmen rather than those guys"
No matter what they say, Reteru doesn't want to play with those boys. The leader boy who is frustrated by that attitude says words that should not be said.
"Your parents were killed by humans, but you often play with children of humans"
Reteru's body, which had endured her temper no matter what is said, quivered. She remembered her parents who were killed by humans in front of her.
"What would your dead parents think when they see what you are doing now that you are getting along with a human?"
Reteru, with tears in his eyes, glares at the boy, almost overflowing.
"Wh, What....... I'm not wrong!"
"Stop it, stop it"
When the boys who were surprised by the voice looked back, there was――
"Inpika-chan"
Mururu happily calls the name.
"Gee, Inpika"
"It's bad"
"You can't do it"
"I wonder if it's okay for boys to bully girls because they want to"
The boys retreat in front of Inpika, who is smaller than them.
"Even if you don't care, what about Hende"
"Reteru, did he bully you?"
"Older brother"
When Reteru's older brother Hende appears, the situation is completely reversed. Even for free, the beastmen boys here can't even beat Inpika. If Hende, the strongest of the beastman's children, joins there, the boys will have no chance of winning.
"No......No. We're not bullying"
"Proud-scraping beastmen don't bully!"
"That's right! We just told her that beastmen shouldn't play with humans"
"Hende, you know that, don't you?"
The boys, who are completely seated and are about to pinch their tails between their groins, claim they are not wrong.
"What....... I'm not afraid!"
Hende moves in front of the leader boy.
"I know your father was killed by a human"
"S, Silent!!"
"Was it Stark's parents who killed him?"
“............”
The boy remained silent when asked by Hende, but he finally opened his mouth, perhaps because he had lost the gaze of Hende staring at him.
"D......Different"
"Then, was it Stark who killed him?"
"That's not the way it is......"
At the end, the voice seemed to disappear. The boy knew what Hende wanted to say.
"You say that to vent your anger"
"No......"
"If is a parent, you'll know, but if he's not, don't mess around"
Not only Hende, but the eyes of other children gather at the boy.
"Sorry......"
The boy muttered.
"I'm sorry, don't look at me with that kind of eyes"
The boy apologizes to Reteru and the others with a crying face. It was followed by other boys.
"Yeah, I didn't like it"
"I'm fine too"
Reteru and Stark accept the boys' apologies.
"Is it over?"
"Owaacyaa?"
The one who called out was the beastman's siblings in fine butler and maid clothes. The brother is holding a big basket in both hands and the sister is holding her brother´s pants. These two are the beastman siblings whom Yuu had previously helped in the slums of the royal capital.
"Yeah! Everyone is good friends!"
Inpika answers so to the sweet scent drifting from the basket with her cute nose tingling.
"Tsk"
"You messed up, weren't you?"
"This is from master, if you make up, you can eat it"
"It's from master"
"Wow! It's donuts!!"
Wherever the dark air was, the children smiled in front of the donuts in the basket.
"What? If it wasn't easy, what would you have done with these donuts?"
When Inpika asks a simple question, the beastmen's siblings look at each other.
"That we decided to eat all of them alone"
"That not good"
"Eh! That's crazy!"
"Don't be sloppy. And you guys don't mess around too much for the sake of master"
"Nayona~"
"Mmm! It's not just a imitation from a while ago"
"What is imitation?"
"Imitation"
The appearance of the younger sister who imitated her brother's words was strange and the Inpika and the others naturally smiled.
---------------------------------------------
"King! After all!"
Inpika stepped on Yuu from the donut insertion earlier and when she found Yuu lying in the grass on the riverside not far away, she said she wasn't disappointed. The cheeks loosen.
"What's that noise?"
"The donuts were delicious!"
"So"
Straddling over Yuu's belly, Inpika thanked for the donuts.
"What are you doing, Namari-chan?"
"Tasting!"
In the hands of Namari and Momo, cream puffs and ice cream made from matcha were held. These are Yuu's new sweets, which were about to be sampled by Namari and Momo.
"I also want sampling food!"
Inpika looks envious of Namari's cream puffs, even though she just ate donuts.
"No, this is just for me and Momo"
When Namari stands up on the spot, holding her cream puff, she proudly stretches her chest for some reason.
"Eh. Fine"
"Inpika"
"What?"
When Yuu called her name, Inpika looked into Yuu's face with her eyes.
"What's your mother´s state right now?"
"Mom? Umm. I call the name of father and older sister"
"What, fall through it is?"
"She hasn't fallen through. Right now, my mom just doesn't have a little bit of energy. So if I give her a lot of energy, she'll always be a good mother"
The appearance of Inpika, who confidently said so, was somewhat dazzling.
"Inpika, you are strong"
"That's right. I'm a strong child"
Namari and Momo split the cream puff in their hands in half.
"Hmm!"
"Eh? Can I have it?"
"Because I like strong guys"
It was a gentle attitude, but it was the kindness of Namari and Momo.
"Reject it loosely"
"King, this is great"
"That was good"
From above his belly, Yuu dismisses Inpika.
"Namari, I'm going back to the castle first, so tell me your impressions later. If it was as delicious as it was the other day, sweet and if it was a suitable impression, I'll let a different person do the next test"
"All right!"
"Leave it to Inpika!"
For some reason, only self-confidence left the full-fledged Namaris and Yuu returned to the mountain castle one step ahead.
-------------------------------------
"Master, how long do you leave it?"
Russ asks Yuu, who is surrounded by books piled high on the desk.
"What's that? Say clearly what you want to say. Russ, as you can see, I'm reading an esoteric book that I suspect was made with this malice right now. Don't spoil me just because you have the unique skill of 『Parallel Thinking』"
What Yuu is reading is the code of the major countries that Mago and Victor have collected.
"Excuse me. What I'm talking about is 『Dragon Fang』"
"『Dragon Fang』? That's over, as I've taken back the item pouch"
"Didn't they hurt that cat girl? You should repay them for that"
"Cat girl......"
"Master, is there anything strange about it?"
"When I had just met you, you wouldn't have called her a cat. You said she was a beast or a demi-human"
Did he notice when Yuu told him? The magic power of Russ undulates as if he was upset.
"It's a figure of speech. I have no other intention"
"Moreover you long for revenge for Flavia――"
"No. I'm not advising the master because of such a cat――the revenge of a beastman. That 『Dragon Fang』, a lower creature like dust, put out their hands to master´s possession even though its a beastwoman. I say it's a good idea to repay them. With permission, I'm right now――"
"What made you become so serious?"
"Tsk, no. Never this, it makes me undead. There's no such thing as disturbing emotions"
"You're getting emotional, aren't you?"
When Yuu closes the code he was reading and looks down at Russ, who kneels and bows his head.
"All right, I understand. You just have to do it
Yuu sighs and mutters that he is a helpless man.
"Well then"
"Don't tell Nina, She'll definitely follow you"
"I am very aware of that"
-----------------------------------------
The hideout of the clan 『Dragon Fang』 in the wealthy area of Tencassi, the royal capital of the Udon Kingdom, was surrounded by heavy air.
"Bastard!"
One of the clan members knocks down the tableware placed on the table.
"Why is Balue dead?"
"Most of the introduced people also withdrew from us so that they could escape"
"Isn't this why Dominique and his friends died in vain......?"
"Hey! No matter how much words pass!"
"It must be true!!"
"Stop it!"
"Because it's annoying, do it outside"
"What! Say that again!!"
"I'll say it again and again. It's annoying"
"Are you picking a fight with me!!"
With the backing of Finance Minister Balue, 『Dragon Fang』, which was planning to expand the clan all over the Udon Kingdom at once, had failed due to the collapse of the Balue faction by Yuu.
"Can I leave you alone?"
Matilde, one of the A-rank adventurers of the clan 『Dragon Brigade』, talks to Reinart, who is busy with paperwork.
"If they go a little wild, it'll be a breather"
"Your clan members are fighting each other"
"That's why I judge and say that"
"Hey, you don't have to be that impatient, do you? It was a disappointing result for Finance Minister Balue, but even so, 『Dragon Fang』 is not increasing the number of clan members every day"
As Matilde said, although the backing of Finance Minister Balue has disappeared, the name value of 『Dragon Fang』, which is the lower clan of 『Dragon Brigade』, was well accepted in the royal capital Tencassi. In fact, he had several alliances with other major clans on equal terms.
"There is no meaning only in the royal capital"
"Only here, 『Dragon Imperial Wrath』and 『Dragon Claw』were steadily expanding their power, but 『Dragon Tail』and 『Dragon Breath』seem to be difficult"
These were good words. The clan members who were fighting also stopped fighting because they wanted to know the continuation and listened to Matilde's words.
"Difficult thing? Don't overemphasis"
"It looks like you've finally bumped into it. You see, with a clan headed by an S-rank adventurer from 『Master Swordsman Assembly』and 『Eating repulsive things Zero Mutt』"
"Well, did they finally kill each other? We can't lose"
"What are you burning up against? Your opponent is an S-rank adventurer of the same rank as Leo"
"It's an inevitable opponent. To put it bluntly, this is fate"
"It's stupid. Many of my friends are hurt and dead"
"I can stretch my body for my dreams. I don't regret the deads"
"Talking to you makes my head hurt"
"Shall we talk about something that makes my head hurt more?"
"Eh?"
A letter was held in Reinart's hand.
