4 After A Little While Again...

"Phew... Phew...!

Make a routine gesture.

I'm almost five years old, and I'm finally going to let you join the party.

Even when it comes to parties, it's a place where nobles living near the Wang Capital bring their children, what they call face shows.

There, me and my brother Grint join.

Grint, three years old, is also going because it's convenient to show off with me.

As a father, he seemed to think about turning five, just like me, but my mother Alma blocked it.

—— Of course the reason

"We have two fine kids, especially Grint, who got the brilliant talent of the Holy Knight, who should also be taken to the unveiling, right?

I guess you're trying to use me to make my brother's awesomeness stand out.

My father was my father, and I admitted it when I said it made sense.

Your mother apologized to me for being sorry later, even though it wasn't your fault.

"Ha... after a thousand times"

I started this training with my father when I was four years old, and that is now enough for me to impose voluntary training. Though for the time being, what I'm doing is a thousand bareback gestures.

Exactly. You said you couldn't do it a thousand times at this age, right? That's right. That's why it's a specially made ultra-light wooden sword.

What happened to toxin decomposition? I stopped thinking about it.

You work hard, I do.

"Oh, good day, Ein."

"Mother! You were watching!

Now your mother's healing is the moisture of my life.

So marry me in the future.

"Yeah, I was watching. You're pretty clean now, aren't you?

"I'm glad to see the results of my daily training."

"... what about your husband?

"Father is Grint's... training, I don't know"

Father hasn't shown much face in my training lately, hence his voluntary training.

Recently he has started training his brother Grint… because he is not yet in a position to train, because of such small things as how to hold the sword and stand.

"... let go of my oldest son, that guy at all"

But it's okay, Mother, because of that, it's the best fight for me that Mother hasn't gotten along with that guy.

"I can practice independently for once, so Grint needs to be taught..."

"Ugh... you're a really good kid, Ain't. You're a good girl."

"Mother... Yes, my breath"

I'm glad to have you pressed against this rich chest, but you still breathe, Mother...

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, Ein... have you finished your voluntary training today?

"Yes!"

"You are. Then I'd like to go shopping… Knight, would you like to escort me?

"We are happy to serve you, Mother!!

"Hehe... thank you, pretty knight"

Your mother's going shopping? Then I'll have to protect you.

Leave it to me, I won't let you touch your fingers or your father come!

"Mr. Olivia? If you're going shopping... oh, you were there too."

"... mother-in-law"

My nasty guy number two.

Father's mother, Isis. I guess I was beautiful when I was younger, but I can't really like it.

By the way, someone with a verse who loves Grint too much to disturb me. Number two, number one is Alma.

"... Going out, Ein? Strange... I can't believe you're done with my brother Grint working so hard. You're talented and inferior, so you have to work a few times harder, right?

"I'm sorry to bother you, ma'am. I was making my routine voluntary exercises quick... so I thought it was time to cut it off before I got hurt."

"Oh yeah, excuse me for this. You can't do what Grint can and you can't do together."

Every time I see him, every time I see him, he throws up.

You're breaking it down? Ah? Don't lick my toxin breakdown, it's EX, right? Don't lick God's tattooed detoxification effect.

"No... thanks for the advice"

"It's okay, I don't care how much you can't do, but I need you to help me with my inheritance."

They've said this again and again, but I can't seem to be a successor to any of these guys anymore.

Well, you're right, you're already the protagonist of the Holy Knight.

"So, mother-in-law? Didn't something happen?

"Oh, it is, Mr. Olivia. Would you like to see some tea? Something you can trust more than a merchant."

"Okay, I'll take a look at some"

"Oh, please... oh, yeah, I have another reveal to make."

"Yes, what?

"We have officially decided to call it Logus, when we publish Grint as our successor"

"... Really?"

"Really? So I'm gonna ask you to do it, right? Then go and be careful."

If you think your father's been talking to Alma lately, I see. Is this what you mean?

I'm sure it would be more beneficial to publish it this way. It would be easier for my wife to take it, and it would be a good thing to clarify her position, except that my mother looks sad.

"Mother, shall we come?

"... Ein, but"

"I don't care if I can keep my mother safe. 'Cause that's the hardest thing you can't do."

"... sorry, do. Really... sorry"

That said.

I can't deny this is serious, I think Mazacon is getting superb, but I'm not going to cure that.

Thanks to you, Father and Alma have only been friends at night for a while now, and it's been a good thing. In the meantime, Mother, let's come, shall we?

Because I can't help but look forward to shopping for the two of us (though I would be near the escort).

"Oh, yeah, Ain't! I got what I asked for!

"What you asked for, is it?

"Yeah! Look... you were looking forward to that, weren't you? Take this."

"This is... Mother!

"Ugh... wow! Status! Yay!

"Happy birthday, Ein. I'm glad you had a quick lift. I'm sorry? It's for nobility, including forgery. It's so loud, it takes a lot of work."

"No thanks! Wow... did I have an automatic HP recovery...?

"Oh, I think that's something I inherited from my parents. I can only inherit one."

"Heh... I was surprised because I thought all I had was toxin decomposition"

"Some things you don't know until you grow up a little bit, that's what you inherit from your parents. By the way, HP automatic recovery is like recovering about 1% at a time in five minutes, right?

I see. Was there such a trick?

I thought it was cheap for a second, but if it's 1% every 5 minutes, well... no, it's still strong.

I don't know what the five-year-old average is, but what about this? Blast the numbers, too. I'm not sure.

When I thought about it, my mother guessed.

"Okay? HP is your life force, and when it's gone, you're dead. If you were a five-year-old... I'd say 10 or so was average except for HP and MP."

"Then I will."

"Yeah, it's so much stronger than average. Congratulations Ain"

"Ah... thank you!

I see, though I almost blew it all up because my mother praised me.

I mean, as I thought before, when it comes to qualities and stuff, you're higher than a regular person.

Honestly, I'm relieved.

"Is that the gift of training... what is this?"

"Yes, I'm very proud of that."

"To?"

"Skills that even those who sincerely went on to do something one thing all the time can gain by being recognized by the world... Even though I was a child, I tried so hard to keep it on every day that God would recognize me."

"Sure, I've been going on every day... is this skill amazing?

"Yeah, a lot of people call it plain when they keep working out... but they don't understand how awesome it is."

I do think it's amazing, how tiresome it is to keep practicing voluntarily, it can be done more often and it's a good thing!

But can you have a kid my age? God could...

No, you're innocent.

I got it, so let's be honest and happy.

But if God watched, thank you.

I'm happy for you.

"Mother! Mother! Come on!"

"Yes, yes, wait, Ein."

Shopping with your mother.

The Roundhart family manages the harbour town right next to the Wang capital, so there are really different things lined up in the store from different places.

"My mother-in-law asked me for some good tea... and then, Ain't? I wonder what you're looking at."

"What is this? It's like a shiny crystal inside."

"Oh, that's a magic stone."

"Demon Stone?

"A demon has it... like a human heart. We use that magic to fuel our baths and clean our water."

Heh... I thought I had one, but I can't believe I really have one of these... I mean, do you normally sell them in the open air?

Well, it's like a necessity in every house. Shall we arrange that?

"Isn't it that expensive?

"It depends. If it's taken from a strong demon, it can be used in large-scale rituals… and if the country is about to be invaded, it can be used to activate a great deal of magic."

"Heh... then how long is it if you normally boil water?

"In a month... well, 3000G would suffice."

For the record, I think I've been quite helpful about monetary value.

Because there were roughly no mistakes with 1 yen = 1 G. Honestly, thank you.

And 3,000 yen for a month to boil water... that's no different than living alone on gas!

"I see that's about it. Is that it? What a sweet smell..."

"Oh, the sun is already leaning... it's time to go home, Ain"

"Ah... yes, Mother!... is sweet!?

Something about the demon stone smelled sweet, so I hid and licked the chillo and it was as sweet as caramel.

Might be good for a snack, this.

"... Am I? What the hell, hey, old man!

"Yes, I don't care, sir."

"What is this demon stone? I don't know what's in it anymore... I'm just dying to see some crystals."

"Hmm...? Oh, was that a 500G demon stone? Excuse me. But it's funny... I tested it properly."
