On the Way Home I Got a Bride and Twin Daughters, Who Were Dragons - Chapter 196

“Wait, hey mom, wait!”

“Let go of me, Aoi.”

“If I let you go, you’ll run away!”

“I won’t run away, I won’t run away! Ah, I was careless… I forgot that my sensing abilities are dulled on this island… Carolia, you set me up…?”

I leaned my back against the corridor wall and looked blankly at Aoi and Yule, who were squabbling near the entrance to the room.

Jaja was also curious, she stared at the antics of her mom and grandma with sparkling eyes.

“Did I do something wrong…?”

“Hm? What is it?”

Mikuma, who was leaning against the wall next to me in the same way, responded to me speaking to myself.

“Oh, no. I’m talking about that girl Alice. I didn’t expect her to be so distraught, so I was concerned. I’ve seen almost everything… even though it was an accident.”

“I’m surprised.”

Mikuma made a deliberately dumbfounded expression as she widened her large eyes behind her glasses.

“What is it?”

“No, I just thought that you looked less perverted than usual for having stared at a naked girl so intently. And you seem to be taking consideration of tact too, aren’t you?”

“What? Did you think I was that perverted that I wouldn’t have any integrity?”

“More like you’re too inexperienced with girls so you can’t hide anything, and you’re terribly clumsy.”

I was left speechless.

Although I have recently begun to get a little used to having more girls around me, my ability to communicate with girls has not changed much from when I was in elementary school.

I honestly have no idea what not to say and what kind of words can ruin the mood.

“I am a little relieved that you didn’t have any illicit feelings toward such a young looking girl. Aoi-chan is about the age of a middle school student, so it’s not exactly reassuring, is it?”

“Hey, hey, hey, no matter how you put it, I don’t think I’d look at a little girl that young with erotic eyes.”

I wouldn’t go that far.

“Fufu, I’ll take your word for it, okay?”

“Yeah, of course.”

We were spending time in the corridor until Teseara-san and Alice got ready to go.

The sight of Alice, completely distraught and in tears, was more than enough to make me feel guilty for having seen the whole thing, even though it was an accident.

So it couldn’t be helped that I had to wait for a while.

“Kunpei-san, please stop my mother!”

Aoi asked me for help as she caught Yule’s arm, her beautiful face dyed bright red.

“Oh, hey, Aoi! That boy has nothing to do with this!”

“There’s no such thing as ‘nothing to do with him’! Mom, you still haven’t apologized directly to Kunpei-san for what happened! Come on, apologize right here, right now!”

“Ah, um”

I’m no good.

I had prepared myself a lot for this, but when I saw this woman’s face in person, I couldn’t help but cower. It seems that the trauma was deeper than I thought.

“Ah, what are you doing on this island?”

As a conversation starter, I decided to try to find a breakthrough with a natural topic.

Ugh, I feel sorry for myself.

I completely lost my nerves.

“… fuuh”

Yule gave me a suspicious glance and turned away from me like a spoiled child.

“Mother!”

“Ah! I know, I get it! This island is full of dragon energy, so it’s a great place to rest, and I try to stop by as often as I can when I’m in the area! I’ve been so busy lately that even I have to rest or I’ll collapse! Do you have a problem with that?”

The mother, puffing up her cheeks at her daughter’s exhortation, continued.

“No, no. I don’t have a problem.”

I was so taken aback by the force of her words that I involuntarily flinched before replying.

“Dah! Dah!”

Jaja pointed her hands at Yule and waved them up and down.

“Hmm? Oh, I’m sorry, Jaja. Did grandma’s loud voice startle you?”

“Nbah! Bah!”

Jaja replied to Yule smiling happily and began to float softly in the air, flapping her little wings on her back.

“Oh?”

So as not to cause her to fall suddenly, I slowly removed my hand from Jaja’s body.

The twins have become very good at flying, but even so, I still feel a little worried when I watch them.

Jaja, who awkwardly leveled her unsteady body and stretched her hands out towards Yule, began to move smoothly.

“Ah, dah, dah!”

I have no idea what she’s shouting, but I’m sure she’s doing her best, and she’s making a cute voice.

“Dah!”

Jaja gripped the thin fabric of her black nightdress tightly in her small hands and looked up at Yule with a sweet smile.

“That’s amazing! You can fly so well already? As expected of my grandchild! What about Nana? Aoi, can she also fly as well?”

“Yes, Jaja was able to fly Earlier, but now Nana can fly as well. Can you praise her?”

“Of course! Amazing Jaja! In the long history of the sky dragons, you may be the first ones to learn to fly so well so quickly!”

Yule’s cheeks flushed with a discernible blush.

She seemed happy from the bottom of her heart.

She gently put her hands on Jaja’s hips and held her body firmly, rubbing her cheeks against her face, forehead to forehead, and comparing Jaja’s face with Aoi’s face.

Come to think of it, there were so many things going on last time that I never saw how the twins and Yule were interacting with each other.

“Auntie!”

Rouge, who was holding Nana, approached from behind Yule.

“Hm? You’re Ruby’s…”

“It’s been a long time, I’m glad you remember me.”

Rouge seemed to have a slight smile on her face.

I’ve only recently begun to be understood the changes in her expressions.

“Ru… no, you’re already independent, aren’t you?”

Yule combed through Rouge’s hair with her free hand that was not holding Jaja,

“Yes, it’s Rougerichte now. Rouge is fine.”

Rouge accepted Yule’s hand with a slight tilt of her head, as if she was somewhat comfortable.

What is it I wonder? Rouge looks a little more childish.

How can Rouge be so reminiscent of an adult and a child when she is almost the same height as Yule?

“Rougerichte… is it? That’s a good name, considering it’s Ruby. You’ve grown up, Rouge. I can hardly recognize you.”

“Is that so? I don’t know myself.”

“Haha, I’ve known you since you were smaller than Jaja and Nana. You have grown up. Your body and your strength.”

Yule roughly patted Rouge’s head with the same calmness she showed to Aoi and the twins.

This scene reminded me of my mother.

I glanced sideways at Shouhei, who has been quiet since a while ago.

He was leaning against the wall right next to the door, holding his knees and looking at Yule, and I sensed the same feeling in his eyes as I did in mine.

With a troubled look.

A look of envy.

I guess he misses mother, too.

“Hm, here you can hold Nana too.”

Nana was staring intently at Yule’s face while she was in Rouge’s arms, sucking on her right thumb.

“Ah, of course. Come on, Nana, grandma will hold you.”

“… uu?”

At Rouge’s urging, Nana was handed over to Yule.

It was hard to tell from Nana’s face whether she recognizes her grandmother’s face, which she has not seen in a long time.

No, a baby’s memory is not to be trifled with.

Both Jaja and Nana must remember Yule well.

“Adah.”

Nana slapped Yule’s face as if she was checking her.

The force was exquisite.

Only I or my father would get hit by the twins in the face without hesitation.

“You’ve grown up, too. Ah, it smells good. It smells like the sky and the sun, which we love. I’m glad you’re doing well.”

Yule took a sniff with her nose buried in Nana’s head.

“How are you these days? Any changes in the twins?”

“Yeah, we came for some advice. You’re still staying on the island, right?”

Aoi, who had been watching Yule holding both Jaja and Nana in her hands, smiled and nodded in satisfaction.

“… Ah, well. I was actually thinking of leaving right away. Since it can’t be helped, I’ll stay with you guys for a little while longer.”

“That’s right, it can’t be helped, right?”

“Yeah, it can’t be helped.”

We don’t understand the unique communication between parents and their children.

Aoi and Yule looked at each other for a while and laughed.

“Sorry for the wait, everyone.”

The door to the room slowly opened at the same time as Teseara-san’s voice.

“I am sorry that I have shown you something so unsightly. Lady Alice Leia is ready, please come in.”

Bowing her head deeply and quietly, Teseara-san invited us into the room with the palm of her right hand.

At the tip of her indicated hand, Alice Leia, who did not seem to be ready in any way, was staring at me with tears in her eyes and her face bright red.
