Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~

Once our preparations for travel were done, we have said farewell to everyone in the Risner House we have stayed in for such a long time . Theodore-kun and Latis-kun were looking sad, but after promising them to write letters, we have moved together with Wald-sama and Isaac-san outside the town .

Other than Wald-sama and Isaac-san, Oswald-san and Mars-kun are accompanying us to the royal capital . Oswald-san is a taciturn man in his thirties and Mars-kun is a friendly, nineteen years old youth .

These two apparently came along with Wald-sama and Isaac-san from Shirin because their duties have been transferred to the capital as well .

「Don’t approach the feet of the horses because it’s dangerous! Do you understand?」

『Kyan《Got it~》』

『Naa~《We will be fine~》』

『Pii』

『Garu』

On this travel, Joule and others are acting together with us, so I called everyone once we left the town . Of course, the three that I made everyone think they are children are in their small forms .

Then, after cautioning everyone, they all returned a proper reply . Whether it was to deceive our fellow travel companions, Joule and Feat who can use【Telepathy】let out proper animal cries .

And then, when the preparations were done and we were about to depart, a problem has occurred .

「Ride with Onii~chan~」

「Elena too~」

「……」

Either Allen or Elena will ride the horse I ride, but…… we haven’t decided who is going to ride first .

There was no problem riding with one at a time during the practice .

I had them ride with Isaac-san for trial, but there also wasn’t a problem .

However, it was done when they were separated both times, so there was no need to split them between Isaac-san and me .

「Since you will switch midway, how about one of you rides with Isaac-san now?」

「「No~」」

「……」

Ah~ this is no good . It feels like the two’s opinion won’t bend no matter what .

…… Now then, what should I do~

「Let’s see~ Takumi-san, get on the horse first for now」

「Eh? Ah, yes」

While troubled over what to do, Isaac-san told me to mount the horse, so I got on the horse as told . Then, Isaac-san lifted up Elena and placed her on the horse in front of me .

Next, he lifted Allen and placed him behind me .

「Allen-kun, please tightly hold on Takumi-san’s neck and shoulders」

「Un!」

「Ehh!?」

Isaac-san let Allen stand on the horse’s butt, he’s holding me as if I was piggybacking him .

This is…… surely not, right~……

「…… Isaac-san, moving like this is not good, is it?」

「They will not fall if it’s Allen-kun or Elena-san . Just in case, let’s tie the child behind you to you」

Seriously!? Am I really let the horse gallop when he’s in such posture?

Hey, Isaac-san promptly took out a rope or rather a belt, and tied Allen to me .

「Hey! Isaac-san, what’s the matter with that belt!?」

「I thought it might be necessary, so I prepared it just in case」

Uwa…… what a high-quality preparation……

Allen happily clung to my neck, peeping to the front with his knees dangling in the air while Elena was looking forward to the change of turns .

《Oh~ that looks quite fun, doesn’t it?》

《Fufufu . He seems happy~》

Joule and Feat were looking at us as if seeing something heartwarming .

It appears that there’s no person who is going to tsukkomi here .

「Alright, seems like we are ready . Then, let’s depart~」

「「Departu~re!」」

「……」

Allen and Elena thrust their fists upwards in response to Wald-sama’s words .

I lightly sighed and instructed the horse . The uncomfortableness was terrible when the horse started moving, but it disappeared after running for a while . Rather, I got used to it instantly?

「「Coming~」」

A little while after leaving the town, Allen and Elena suddenly called out .

「Really!? Oswald, Mars . Can you confirm the monsters?」

「There are! Three wolves at the front!」

Wald-sama could guess what the children’s short comment meant and immediately instructed his subordinates . Then, before long, wolves appeared in front of us .

Allen and Elena were with me on the horseback, so they were fidgety because they couldn’t jump down and defeat the wolves .

「Wolves, huh . Do we keep going? Or do we get down from the horses?」

「We don’t have to get down from the horses . Bolt, can I ask you to take care of it?」

『Pyuruu~』

Isaac-san was asking Wald-sama for instructions, but I interrupted their exchange and asked Bolt to take care of the wolves .

Then, Bolt let out a cry of acknowledgment and flew towards the wolves .

『Pyui~』

「「「Gyaun!」」」

Bolt fired lightning from the skies at the wolves . The wolves were defeated in no time . Then, he took one of the wolves by its leg and brought it to me who was on the horseback .

『Pyuru』

「Thank you, Bolt」

After I put the corpse of the wolf into the《Infinite Storage》, Bolt flew to get the other wolves .

「Takumi really doesn’t have any limits…… are you not even going to stop to process the corpses?」

「Well, it’s Takumi-san after all . It helps that there’s no blood flowing because this is the main road though」

「Even though they weren’t monsters that strong, to defeat them in one strike……」

「As expected of a Thunderhawk!」

「Hahaha~」

I heard both exhausted and admiration voices from Wald-sama and others .

It was because of Bolt who was carrying the defeated wolves, but they were electrocuted this time . They seem astonished that there was no blood flowing .

That’s because there’s a possibility of others monsters being attracted by the blood flow . But you see~ Allen and Elena defeat most monsters by impact, Joule and others also ram their opponents most of the time, so flowing blood is rare itself in our case~

『Pyuru?』

「It’s nothing . Thanks for your hard work」

「「Hard work~」」

『Pyuru!』

Bolt stayed on my arm after bringing me the three corpses and was tilting head in「What’s the matter?」manner, so I patted Bolt’s head in thanks .

「Wald-sama, shall we go?」

「Ou, let’s go」

We let the horses run again, stopped along the way for a break and arrived at a small village in the evening . We will be staying here today .
