95 Chapter 60-Goodbye 2





"Duke Eric, what are you doing in this place?

 Eric nods his head at Garum's question.

''I'm on my way back from visiting the territory. I'm on my way back to the royal capital now, but I'm always in the care of Sir Santos on the way. Huh? Didn't Mr. Cain tell you? You stayed at my house last week.

 Hearing Eric's statement, Garum gave Cain a cold look.
 It was true that he had heard that Eric and Silk were always treated to wild vegetables when they stayed at Santos' house.

''I haven't heard anything about that yet at .......

 Cain averted his gaze, breaking out in a cold sweat.

'That is exactly why Lord Garm came to this place? Even from King's Landing it will take a few days.

 Garum gave Cain a look without saying anything. With that gaze, Eric was able to realize.

''Ah, it's Cain-kun after all. I think there's a lot of intricacies to talk about, and I'm going to go back to the guest room.

 Eric went straight up the stairs to the guest room.

'You've been staying in the Cain ...... Malbeek territory as well. ......
Yes ......

 Garum's words made me drool.

'Well, that's good for now. We'll talk again in the future. I'll ask Rayne to have Cain present.

I understand.

 In the drawing room, the Geretta family of Santos, Lara, and Leela sit side by side, with Garum, Sarah, Rayne, and Cain sitting across from them. Lara's husband has gone to King's Landing and is now gone.
 In the tense air, Santos was the first to open his mouth.

'Sarah, fifteen years or ....... The months go by fast, don't they? I was surprised when Sir Cain told me that you were married to Lord Garm. It's a good thing that you're not the only one who's been in the same boat as me. When I guided him to stay at the mansion, he said to Lara, "Mother? That's why. And that's why I was so surprised.

 Santos said, as if remembering the long months.

'Father, I'm sorry I've been away so long. And Lara, I'm sorry I've forced my noble duties on you. ......

 Sarah bowed deeply to the two men.

'Sir Santos, I would like to apologize to you as well. I didn't know that I was your daughter, and I fell in love with and married Sarah to a woman who was an adventurer. If this were true, I might have had to check then. I am sorry.

 He put his hand on the table and Garm lined up and bowed his head as well.

'Raise your heads, both of you. This is how we were able to meet again in safety. And I got to meet my grandson. Rayne, was it? In Santos, Sarah's father.

 He smiled kindly at both Rayne and Cain.

'Nice to meet you, Grandfather. I am Rayne, the eldest daughter of Garum. I am fourteen years old. I currently attend the school in the royal capital.

 Rayne stands up once and plucks up the hem of her skirt and greets her like a noblewoman.
 Santos also looks a little embarrassed when Rayne, who is about his age, says "Grandfather". It's because until now he thought he only had a grandchild in Leela, who is still less than ten years old.
He had never forgotten about Sarah, but after fifteen long years, he was about to give up and forget about her.

'And thank you so much, Sir Cain. It is thanks to you, Sir Cain, that I was able to see my daughter again and have two new grandchildren. I didn't expect you to come so soon, though.

 It was a speed of travel that was made possible because of Cain's flight (fly) and transition, and it was not possible to travel in a typical carriage.
 Santos didn't mention that, and this time he was only happy to see them again.
 Lara and Leela greeted him next, and the conversation proceeded amicably.

'Sir Santos, we will now be your relatives. Let us work together more than ever before.

'I appreciate that, Lord Garm, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you. I will continue to count on you.

 They shook hands firmly and the family reunion was over.
 Garum got to talk to Santos and Sarah got to talk to Lara individually, while Rayne, Cain and Leela moved into another room.
 Rayne seemed to be happy to have a sister of her own, and she was itching to see Leela with a glint in her eye.

'What's wrong? Sister Rayne?

 Leela tilted her head at Rayne's suspicious behavior, but it seemed to be a point for Rayne.

''Already! Leela! Cute!

 She suddenly hugged Leela. Leela was surprised by Leine's sudden action.

''What? Sister Rayne?

 Next to a surprised Leela, Cain held his forehead in his hand, 'I knew it,' he said, 'I knew it.

'Hey, Cain. I've got a cousin too, you know? I would have been the only girl in the Silford family until now. Can I take her to King's Landing like this already?

''Sister Rayne, that's not going to happen. ...... In two years, Leela should be able to take the school in King's Landing. Then we'll be together.

 I answer Rayne's question with dismay. If I take her like this, it will only be a kidnapping. If Leela ever attends the academy in the royal capital, they will be able to meet again.

''That's right! I'll be waiting for you at the academy!

 By the time Leela entered the school, Rayne would have already graduated, but Cain was silent as he didn't want to water down a happy Rayne.
 Along the way, Cain took out Reversi and played against her in turn. Leela learned things well and soon began to win the match against Rayne. It was still Cain who was the strongest, though.
 While the three of them were enjoying themselves, it was time for dinner.

 The Silford family and the Geretta family, led by Eric, are all there for the meal.

''Since today is a day of celebration, we've arranged to make it luxurious.

 The dishes on the table ranged from whole roasted pork to stir-fried wild vegetables, and it wasn't an amount that could be consumed by this many people.
 It seemed that Eric had been present when Garum and Santos had spoken together, and he understood the situation.

''So, here's to the Kingdom of Esfort, as the Silford and Geretta families are now sunny relatives.

「「「「 cheers」」」」

 Eric's signal for a toast raises the glass high.
 The waiting maids bring the carved food in front of each of them.
 The adults become more slippery as the alcohol progresses. The friendly conversation continues, and they change rooms to drink again after the meal is over.
 Cain and Rayne were given a private room, but Rayne began to fret about wanting to sleep with Leela.

'Since we're here, I'm going to sleep with Leela! Good night, Cain! Let's go, Leela.

'Eh ....... Yes ....... Good night, Brother Cain.

Yeah, good night. --Look after my sister Rayne for me.

 Before Cain could finish, Leela had already been taken away by Rayne.
 The private room has only a bed, a table and two chairs. Even so, it's a room of about ten square meters, so it's spacious enough.
 Cain sat down on the floor and began to meditate in zazen. This is the only thing he does on a daily basis, and he does it every day without fail.
 His status has already become an outsider, or rather a sub-god, and although it doesn't show up in numbers and he doesn't need to raise his status any further, it still wasn't at a level where he could beat Yuya.
 It wouldn't be a problem, Cain thought, especially compared to Yuya.
 After finishing his routine, he decided to go to sleep, getting into his comfortable bed.

 Breakfast was started once everyone was in the dining room.
 Eric, Garum, and Santos looked sick, having had too much to drink the day before.
 While the others proceeded with their meals, the three of them only drank water without touching anything.

''Ugh ....... I'm not feeling well ....... Lord Santos is too strong .......

 Eric also wrinkled his brow and drank only water.

'I was so happy yesterday that I was able to get my drink on. ...... Upps.

 Santos was also in a state of abandonment due to excessive drinking.
 Sarah and Lara were dumbfounded by such an appearance, with a look on their faces like they had no choice.

'Cain ....... Can't you use magic to cure a hangover or something ......? As you can see, this is a bit ......

 Although Garum usually refrained from letting magic be used in public, as expected of Garum today, he bet on Cain's slightest hope.

''It's probably going to be okay, right? Father, would you like to sit down?

Please go to .......

 Including Garum, who nodded his head as if he was not feeling well, Eric and Santos also cast condition recovery magic (Condition Heal) one after another.
 When Cain unleashed his recovery spell, the expressions of the three of them changed and became refreshed and refreshed.

"Cain, you're saved.
Thank you, Mr. Cain.
I'm sorry, Sir Cain.

 Cain returned to his seat, scratching his cheeks as the three of them bowed to him.

''Even so, I can't believe you can even use that kind of recovery magic ....... You're the one in the family, Cain-kun!''

 Everyone laughed at Eric's joke and the meal resumed.
 The meal proceeded harmoniously. After the meal, all of us had to see the carriage off as Eric was heading to the royal capital.

''If it's true, it's hard for me not to go with Cain-kun ....... It's another nobleman's duty, though, so I can't help it.

 Eric, who knows about the transferable magic, looks over at the Silford family, who look away enviously. Knowing this, Garum, who has an apologetic look on his face, replies.

''-- Sir Eric, then, I'll see you in the royal capital again. Please take care of yourself.
'Take care of yourself, Duke Eric.

 In front of the mansion, the Silford and Geretta families line up to see Eric off.
 The carriage, led by two dozen knights in the escort, begins to advance. The escort was increased after Telestia and Silk were attacked by a pack of orcs.
 They saw the carriage off until it was out of sight and then returned to the mansion.

''Well, shall we head back too?''

 Santos questioned Galm's words.

'Sir Galm, is the carriage ......? Speaking of which, I was reported to have walked to the gate: ......

...... There's a lot going on with that, and it would be helpful if you could keep what you're about to see a secret.

You have my word, of course. Now, take care of Sarah for me. Sir Cain, you can come back to visit me anytime.

'Father, I'll come back to see you. I'll see Lara and Leela again.

 Sarah looked over at the members of the Geretta family and bowed her head.

'Viscount Santos, I will be happy to stop by again.

 Cain also bowed.

 They entered the mansion and gathered in the parlor. Inside the room are only the Silford family and the Geretta family.
 I want to keep it to a minimum to show them as I am about to leave with transition magic.

''Why is ...... in this room? You're going home now, aren't you?

 To Santos, who still doesn't understand, Garum looks at Cain.

''Viscount Santos, actually ...... I can use transition magic. That's why I transferred from the royal capital to here. That's why I was on foot.

 Santos' eyes widen when he hears of the transfer magic. Of course, so does Leela. Leela still doesn't understand and tilts her head.

''What?! I knew Lord Cain's kirin-child swing, but I didn't know he could even use the legendary transference magic: ...... I never thought that such a legendary sorcerer would emerge from the Geretta family bloodline.

Your Majesty requests that I keep my mouth shut. Lord Santos, please.

 Santos nodded at Garum's reminder.
 A member of the Silford family put a hand on Cain's shoulder.

'Well, thank you for your help, then.

 Cain thanked him for a word and bowed his head.

'Transition.'

 In an instant, the four people in the room disappeared.
 The three people left in the room just watched in silence as the four people actually shifted and disappeared in front of their eyes.

''Father, how is this possible ......?''
'Mmm, I didn't know Sarah's baby would make it this far: ......
I hope to see Master Rayne again.

 Thus ended Sarah's reunion with her family.
