The Lord Commander sent me, the Captain of the Guard, Googs.
　I've gathered all of the guards to form a select squad so that we can go out to explore the area around the pioneer village.

　I went to that one unit last time and I know the area well, so of course I'll go.
　Now, who else.........
Of course I'll be there, sir.
　And Lil Pop

　For such lil' pops.
　I snapped at him as hard as I could.

"Hey, buddy, since you've got a goop to take care of, I thought you were supposed to be out of town for a single round of scissors.
　That's what I said, and Lil Pop was like.
That's all right, sir. I think I've got a better idea.
　I'm just saying that and slapping him on the chest.
　I'm a little nervous about this guy, because he's always thinking outside the box.

　So, what do you do?

We can take the goop on the magic infantry, sir.
　And Lil Pop with a smug look on his face.

　I immediately put a deco pin on Lil Pop's forehead
What are you doing, sir?
　Lil Pop backpedals slightly, holding back from taking a hit from my deco pin.

'Think about it. That was supposed to be a one-seater, right?
　Besides, this is a reconnaissance, I can't have something that obvious along with me.
　I told him so flatly.


　In fact, there's no way I can carry a demon armored infantry that is twice the size of that humanoid, and can't even turn around properly.

　Then, the lil' pop one, this time sitting there.
We're going anyway, sir!　I will not move here until you acknowledge me.
　Oh, for f*ck's sake, quit being such a pussy!


　Anyway, when the lillpop guy starts to complain, he's out of control.
　You can't move even with leverage until you get your point of view across, and since you're so poorly skilled, no one can compete with you...so you can't even force them out.

　Sitting cross-legged, arms folded, Lil Pop stares straight at my face.
　Oh, God, this stubborn father mode is really annoying.

　And I'm looking at you like I've bitten a bitter bug.
　Goopop, who had been watching it from the shadows of the entrance, came running up to me with something.

　In

　goop
　I hugged Lil Pop, who was sitting on his stubborn father's seat.
'Dad you can take me and my mom and I...'
　It's like he's looking at me with his eyes watering.


　The Latest Goop.
　It's only been a short time since she was born, but she's already grown up like a 10-year-old girl.
　I guess that's just because she was born from an ancient monster race egg.

　And this goo-pop.
　Dark-haired, clean-cut, ladylike, like you couldn't kill a bug.

　Yes, they're dainty.


　I know it's got a lot of parental elements in it.
　Anyway, I can't take a goop to a place where it's not safe to take a pretty girl.
　
　Then he folded his arms and turned his head to the side with a pout.
　I thought a goop walked up to me and grabbed my arm.

　Huh?

　What happened to me?

　It was something, and I found myself being thrown down at the feet of a goop.
　........I didn't notice it at all, or rather, I didn't even know I'd been thrown......

　Yes, the goo-pop who looks down at my confused face is looking down at me.　
'I can take care of myself so I want you to take me with you.
　Yes, you look at me with those moist eyes.

　.........

　Yeah, there's no way around it.
Anyway, if I deem it unsafe, I'll send Lil Pop and the rest of them back.
　Those instructions are absolute. If you can abide by them, I'll let you come with me.
　When he said that, Lil Pop
But that's a condition I find somewhat difficult to accept.
　That's right, mumbling and getting up with a dokorasho.

　I mean, you're such a loli girl on the outside, but your words and actions are too old-fashioned.

　Well...
　Here's where I turned my gaze back to the goop.
'Two more things to add to your goop.
　One, always stay with me or Lil Pop at all times, and never leave.
　As he said this, Goopop nodded, smiling happily.
'So, one more thing...'
　I'm still looking like I've been thrown down at the feet of a goop.
''Well don't use that throwing technique now, never use it when you're in your skirt.

....in full view.

　When I say that.
　Goopop, who didn't seem to understand what it meant for a while, was dumbfounded right there.
　I pointed to the short, fluttery skirt of my goop and
　Finally, he noticed that my underwear was in full view, right below me.
　His face turned red as he held up the hem of it.

'If you understand, go change into your pants. At least the place you're going to go from now on ain't a place you can go in a skirt.
　As I said this, Goulpop ran off, his face turning bright red.

　then
　And something about the cobolts under my command kept coming up to me.
Captain, that's really not fair.
　What?
You can't really have an angel like that as your daughter, can you?
A combat junkie with a rear-end job, for Christ's sake.
So, it's even more unlikely that your wife is a lil' pop.
That's the only red dot in the Guard.　What, are you messing with it as fast as you can?

　After this, I'll be
　Until Goop came back in a pair of shorts.
　I guess I'll just have to listen to my guys whine on and on...........

◇ ◇.

　In the morning, I selected those who would accompany me.
　Starting with me, Lil Pop and Gou Pop, there are 10 of Kobold's elite.

　This brings the total number of people to 21, including the Eels who are coming from Guianacombe.
　Now we just need to find out what happened to the Green Convoy that we've been in contact with.

　Just as I was thinking this, Foldente appeared in the room.

'I'm back from Greencombe.
　When he said that, Foldente sat down in a chair, saying, "Oh dear.
I'll just have a cup of tea.
　He sighs as he says this.

　This is the usual pattern when Foldente comes to our guard building.
　Well, I'm sure he's allowed to be that relaxed, so I don't mind.

　With me in front of him.
　When he took a sip of the tea his men were holding, Foldente sighed and
Greencomb was looking for the bandits.
　The strike team is already on its way, arriving in Liberty in two days.
　You should discuss it with Eel and work out a plan of attack.
　I've made it clear to them that they have to work in accordance with our strategy.
　Then Foldente chuckles.
''I get it anyway. Good job.''
　I smiled at him and smiled at him.
　Foldente looked around me.
"I wasn't sure what to expect at first.
　We've become such a nice family.
　Then he chuckles.

　When I turn around.
　Right behind me was a goop who had changed into shorts.
　Behind him to his left was Lil Pop with several magic guns at the ready.

　.............................Hey!
　Goop, though.
　Is this the kind of 'I'm going into a hand-to-hand combat' kind of woman you think I deserve?

　I turn my jito eyes to me, and Foldente still smiles with a giggle.
Anyway, we've got two days to kill before we meet up with you.
　....why don't you do a little family service for them?
　When I said that, the one with the fortente, he stared at my crotch.
It's just that you've been very sweet to her, but you've been very sweet to her.
　Then he laughed again.

　I couldn't help but blush a little and cough deliberately.......

　What are you guys doing looking at me like that?
　Huh? Break it up!　Dismissed!
