First Village
Dirkhert is currently hiding behind Meluerina and looking forward.
He is tightly holding Meluerina’s maid clothes. His sneaky appearance that is peeping from behind Meluerina is very adorable, already grabbing the villagers’ hearts.
“Oh my, what a lovely traveler-san.”
“Maid-san, Elf-sama, and a child, that’s some odd combination.”
Even though not particularly unusual for travelers to pass through this village to the Royal Captial. Several villagers have gathered in the blink of an eye…… although the reason why they are surrounded mainly by women is most likely because men are outside to work, the main reason is after all the cuteness of this little Maou-sama.
Wearing a brown cape with bear ears attached to the hood. In addition, the little Maou-sama is tightly hugging the bear, Chocola. It can’t be helped that people find this little children’s shyly peeking face adorable.
“Dirk-sama, what about the greetings?”
Meluerina tries to put somehow Dirkhert who is hiding in the rear in the front, but Dirkhert shakes his head in disapproval, not wanting to go in the front at all. On the contrary, he’s hiding behind more and more.
Apparently, the shyness Meluerina and Volsung were worried about kicked in.
Can’t be helped. When Volsung lifts Dirkhert in his arms, Dirkhert this time buried his face to Volsung’s chest not wanting to separate.
“Look, Dirk-sama. We will be taken care of by these people for a couple of days, it’s not proper to not say your greetings, you know?”
“Yaa!”
Exactly what he dislikes so much?
When seeing the villagers from the distance, he was saying “They are the same”. It doesn’t seem to be fear of seeing humans for the first time.
“…… I’m terribly sorry, as you see our Master has a fear of strangers.”
Even if we try to make him do a greeting forcibly, he would start crying at this rate.
Meluerina and Volsung quickly give up on making him greet people.
“I’m in charge of taking care of little Master Dirk-sama, Melu is my name.”
“I’m the guard, Vol. We will be staying here for a few days for the sake of Master’s education, please take care of us.”
Is it in response to the two people’s introduction? Dirkhert who has been burying his head in Vol’s chest until now slowly raises his head.
“…… Vol, down.”
After being told by a tiny voice, Volsung lets the little Master down from his arms. And then, while tightly clinging to Volsung’s leg, he looks at the watching villagers.
“Dirk you see, is called Dirk. Dirk came to study. Please treat Dirk well.”
Seeing Dirkhert who lowered his head, warm smiles float on the villagers’ faces.
He was somehow able to introduce himself safely. Was this thanks to the everyday greetings education?
However, to act like this in front of these calm villagers. How will things go from now on?
The constant worries of the two have not ceased.
