 Lanwalker Frontier Territory
 mansion

Just send the supplies over...

It's not. This is.....

Weapons, this way!

 It's a familiar sight for the past week already. The soldiers and the townspeople are working together to move the goods to the carriages to be delivered to your father.

 One of the biggest squares in the territory is the garden of the Lanwalker frontier earl's mansion. It's also used for waiting for the army, so it seems to be larger than other estates.

 I was going to help carry my stuff, but it's not safe for children to stay in the mansion! I was angry with him. 'I'm sorry.

'Lady Phelia. How can I help you?

'Mirmi. I was just wondering if there was anything I could do to help you.

'Huh, it can't be helped. The adults are saying, 'Don't let the kids do this! And they won't let me, because they won't let me. The other children in the house haven't been allowed to help, so shouldn't Lady Phelia help them either?

 Mirmi says that with a couscous laugh. .........I can't help it. I can't do it alone when you all aren't doing it.

 .........Normally, I would be angry if I'm the only one who doesn't do it when you all are doing it.

'Oi, Phelia...............................sir! Your aunt called me!

 I'm talking to Mirmi as I look outside and Dry and Gummin-kun come in. As usual, Dry tried to call me by my name, so I'm giving Mirmi a glare and giving her a sama, but in the end, it was the same as usual.

 And he's calling your mother an aunt. Your mother is in her mid-30s, but she looks like she's in her 20s. And yet, you'll be angry if you treat her like an aunt.

All right. I'll be right there.

 For now, let's go to your mother. I walk ahead and Mirmi, Dry and Mr. Gummin follow behind me in that order.

 I enter the room I was called to and inside is your mother and Eileen's mother. Dr. Merlin and Chloe and Krona. Chrysia is being held by her mother. And then there is Dorothea's sister.

 Sister Dorothea has been teaching me dark magic since I saved her in the demon land before. There was no one around me who could use dark magic.

 However, since I'm a demon race, I couldn't leave it as it is, so my father put a restriction collar on me, though. The content is that they can't have weapons or use magic without permission. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to make a contract with me, but I'm sure he made me a contractor to give that permission.

 As expected, I didn't think it would be a good idea to make me the contractor, but Dorothea's sister said it was fine, so I left it as it is.

 And we are all armed. Mother has the robe and staff she wore when she was an adventurer, and Eileen's mother wears her armor and carries a sword.

 Chloe and Krona are also carrying weapons. Miss Merlin is dressed as usual and has her wand. Sister Dorothea has a knife hidden somewhere on her body.

 Your mother called me to talk about the future. Your father has written to me every day, and he says that they are now antagonistic, but he doesn't know which way they will turn at any time.

 Therefore, I would like to talk about our evacuation route. When I say escape route, I mean that Merlin-sensei and Dorothea's sister will move with me, Chrysia, Krona, Myrmi and the others using spatial magic.

''What about your mothers?''

 Yes, now that you mention it, your mothers are not in it. I asked her about that.

''If the enemy comes to attack here, we will stay. I can't run away, my wife, when all the other lords are fighting, and my lord Zeke is fighting, too.

'So do I. At that time, Phelia and the others must flee to King's Landing at all costs. If we get to King's Landing, we'll find Eliza, and Ray and Aeris.

'Well, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Does Filia think your father will lose?

 As I turn over, my mother comes over to my side and pats my head. I shake my head at my mother's question. That's right. Your father can't lose. After all, he's your father!

 Then we'll pack up the story for that eventuality to happen. No matter how much your father thinks he's not going to lose, he's not optimistic. It's always the good adventurer who acts to be able to deal with the worst things, says your mother.

 I'm not an adventurer, but I see what you mean. But these bad things seem to come when we're talking about it, as it happens, outside the mansion when we're talking about it.

 Boom!

 And then a pretty loud noise rang out. And the ground shakes. A simple magic barrier has been put up in this mansion. I heard that even a fairly strong magic will prevent one shot, but if that was magic now........

 Mother and Eileen mother head towards the direction of the sound. Thinking that I might be able to defeat them depending on the number of enemies, I follow my mother and others. Then I go out of the mansion and there it is.

'Hahahahaha! You guys are so weak!

 There was a man standing there laughing and cutting the soldiers off. Behind him were about four men about Aeris's sister's age, five in all.

''Mr. Gargante. If you really capture the family of the Lanwalker Frontier Count here, the women can do what they want!

Of course. Of course. It's my way of showing off to the frontier count. Of course, you can do that. But there are a lot of soldiers here, so if we are surrounded by them, we need to catch them quickly, or else we will be in for a real fight.

 All five of them have a tremendous amount of magic. Especially the man leading the charge jumps out at you. The soldiers in the mansion start attacking the intruders, missing those who can't fight. I have to help!
