Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~

Picking Up

After that, I was somehow able to appreciate the atmosphere of the evening party a bit longer, but thinking that I should be fine by now, I decided to leave the venue behind and went to pick up Allen and Elena .

Of course, I have received Tristan-sama and Matthias-san’s permission .

“”Onii~chan!””

When I entered the room where the children were being taken care of, the two vigorously jumped at me .

“”Welcome back~””

“I’m back . Were you waiting for me obediently?”

“Yup, Allen was a good boy!”

“Elena also was a good girl!”

“I see . You were good children~”

Allen and Elena were appealing that they waited while being good kids, so I praised the two lots while patting their heads .

“Huh? That reminds me, where’s Julius-sama?”

“It was time for Julius-sama to sleep, so he was taken to his bedroom . ”

Just I found it strange that I had not seen Julius-sama together with Allen and Elena, Isaac-san filled me in .

“Is that so? How unlucky of me . I wanted to meet him…”

“If it’s you, you will definitely have another opportunity, Takumi-san . ”

I was not able to see Julius-sama when I brought Allen and Elena here, but I had not the luck even this time . He’s Austin-sama and Aurora-sama’s child, so I believe that he surely is a lovely child, but… I wasn’t able to confirm it .

“Are you two not sleepy?”

“”Is fine~!””

The time has already reached the time for children to sleep, but Allen and Elena don’t seem to be sleepy at all today .

“Thank you very much for today, Isaac-san . I hope there were no problems?”

“Everything was fine . The two were obedient and looked after Julius-sama . ”

“Eh, is that so?”

Hearing that Allen and Elena looked after a young child, I was surprised a little .

“Yes . Yes they read him a picture book very wonderfully . ”

“Heeh~ you read him a picture book, huh~ Aren’t you two amazing~!”

“”Ehehe~””

Hearing that Allen and Elena were not only obedient but even read Julius-sama a picture book, I was very impressed . When I praised them once more, the two laughed bashfully .

“Rather than that, Takumi-san!”

“Yes?”

But suddenly, Isaac-san looked serious, so I was wondering what he was going to say .

“The children read the book as if acting out a theater performance, was it you who have taught them?”

“…… Eh?”

He was making a serious face, so I was wondering what it was about, but it was about the way they read the book .

As if acting out a theater performance, he said . Isn’t he exaggerating a bit?

“… No, I only taught them how to read normally, I did not do something like that . ”

“Is that so? It was quite terrific, you know?”

“Eh? That much!?”

“Yes, their performance was nearly bringing the scenes to life . ”

“……”

Looking at Isaac-san’s expression, he wasn’t joking .

Watching me and Isaac-san having such a conversation, the two looked up at us as if asking “Are we amazing?”

“When did you manage to learn something like that? How incredible~”

“Obaasama did . ”

“Teach us~”

“”Eh?””

Hearing Allen and Elena’s words, Isaac-san and I raised our voices in surprise .

“Obaasama? Eh, Rebecca-san taught you that?”

“”Yeah . ””

“W, when did she manage that…”

Since living at the Ruven house, Allen and Elena certainly weren’t sticking to me all the time and spent some time with Rebecca-san too, but… it shouldn’t be that long .

In that short time, Rebecca-san managed to teach the two a way of reading that impressed Isaac-san so much?

“To teach them something like that without you even noticing… Madam Rebecca is quite a lady of character, isn’t she~”

“… Indeed . ”

There have already been several occasions Rebecca-san jumped the gun on me . Clothes with animal ears and even the preparations for this evening party . She makes me admire her skills on every occasion .

But well, she’s not a bad influence on Allen and Elena, so… let’s leave it at that .

“So you two are so skillful at reading books, huh~ Will you read your Oniichan the next time?”

“”Yeah, will read~””

“I see . Then, please do so . ”

A way of reading that impressed Isaac-san . I look forward to it .

“Shall we return then? Allen, Elena, give your thanks to Isaac-san . ”

“”Yup, thank you~””

“Thank you very much . I will prepare something to thank you the next time . ”

“Nono, I was just doing my job . Rather than preparing something to thank me with, won’t you visit our home the next time? Elder brother is eager to see you . ”

I see, because of the social season, Cedric-san must have come to the Capital!

What bad luck . I wasn’t able to meet him at the evening party .

“Then, he came with Theodore-kun and Latis-kun too?”

“Yes, the two want to see you as well . ”

Theodore-kun and Latis-kun apparently came with him to the Capital .

“Allen, Elena, Theodore-kun and Latis-kun want to see you! Do you want to visit them?”

“”Want! Tomorrow~?””

“Nono, tomorrow wouldn’t be possible . I will contact them and we will then decide on the day, so it would be a few days later . ”

“”Ehh~””

When I told Allen and Elena that they would be able to see Theodore-kun and Latis-kun, the two were obviously delighted .

However, understanding that they won’t be able to see them today or tomorrow, they got dejected .

“Fufu . I will make sure to let Elder brother know, so let’s see~… how about three days later at the noon?”

“There are no problems for us . ”

“I will tell him that then . ”

“Yes, please . ”

Seems like we will be able to see Cedric-san’s family sooner than I thought .

“Well then, it’s dark outside, so be careful on your way back . ”

“Yes, we understand . ”

Like this, my social debut (?) somehow ended with various happenings and an unexpected reunion .
