The Attack was a Success
After Ms. Delia and I gave the order, the children ran towards Nicholas and the elders.
And while they were making some excuses, the children ignored them.
“…Evil really should be destroyed.”
“Hah… Hah…! Sending the children to attack us like that. Have you no shame, Takumi?”
“No, it was you who abandoned me first, Nicholas. Regardless, you are the only target who is not old. So you better stop resting and go back to play with them. As you said before, it will be effective training.”
After he managed to escape the children, Nicholas made his objections while trying to catch his breath.
However, I quickly sent him back into the ring of children.
“By the way, Ms. Delia.”
“Climb that man over there! Yes, hold onto his hair, and then you won’t fall! Oh, what is it, Mr. Takumi?”“Uh, I don’t think they should be pulling people’s hair. Hey! Don’t do that! It will hurt!”
“Okay!”
Ms. Delia was still busy with giving out orders, but she then turned to look at me with a puzzled expression.
“Ms. Delia, when you talk about how there was another girl…”
“Oh, that was nothing. I wasn’t really thinking…”
After that, the children finally calmed down a little, and so I talked with the older men and rested.
And seeing his opportunity, Nicholas glared at me angrily as he began to protest again.
“…That was really terrible of you, Takumi.”
“You deserved it for what you did. Also, I just thought it was unfair for me to play with the children and exclude you. Besides, you looked like you wanted to do some training…”
“After experiencing that, I know I was right to compare it to training. However, it wasn’t so much fun as just exhausting…”
Indeed, I had meant it as a form of revenge, as Nicholas had run away first.
However, I wasn’t lying when I said that I wanted him to enjoy playing with the children.
But it did not seem like he enjoyed it that much. Perhaps it was different with me, because I was used to playing with Liza and Tilura.
Well, even then, it was Leo who did most of the running and playing.
“Still, why didn’t you just dodge them like Ms. Delia does?”
He was a well-trained guard. Compared to his fights with Mr. Ekenhart, it should be easy to step out of the way of charging children.
“Ms. Delia has abnormal reflexes. Besides, children are less predictable. And I am not used to dealing with them.”
“I see…”
Ms. Delia was a beastkin, and her reaction speed was definitely impressive.
Also, she knew the children well, so she could probably read them better.
I suppose that was why Nicholas was at a disadvantage.
“I really have some ways to go…”
“Why don’t you train with them some more then?”
“I…don’t think I will. I cannot concentrate well, which will make it less effective.”
Apparently, freedom and lack of rules were not good for his pace.
“Mr. Takumi!”
“What is it, Ms. Delia?”
As we were talking, Ms. Delia shouted while running towards me.
“It’s the chief. Preparations are made. So it will be sent to your house now.”
“Prepared? What is?”
Had I forgotten about something?
I don’t remember making any requests…
