Chapter 151
Excitement
Translator : PolterGlast
Buying food and drinks on the way to the house, we arrived
at the former residence of the Greatest family. As expected, no matter
how many times I look at it, its size is overwhelming, and I don't feel like
I'll get used to it yet.
"This is the house where I'll have you live starting
today."
"............Huh? W-We are going to live here?!"
"Yeah. Together with me, though."
"A-Amazing! It's big and spacious! I've never even seen
such a big house!"
"I-Is it really okay? We aren't being tricked,
right?"
"Tricked? Tricked into what and how? Anyway, let's go
inside."
"We're going in, we're going in! Yay!"
"Going suddenly from a tent to a mansion... my head
can't keep up."
Gree is
confused, and Anne is honestly happy. Both reactions are fresh and fun
just to watch.
Grinning at their reactions, I unlocked the door and entered
the house. Well, even though I'm grinning, I've only visited a few times
myself, so there are more things I don't know than I do. For now, I'll guide
them to the living room and have us eat the food I bought before deciding on
rooms.
"Whoa! It really is too wide!"
"Big Brother, look! It has a garden attached!"
"It's true. The garden is too wide too!"
"You can use the garden freely too. Before that, let's
eat."
Seating the excited pair, I lined up the food I bought on
the table. Then, after finishing the pre-meal greetings, we ate the food.
"So yummy! A huge house and delicious food! It's really like a
dream!"
"Really... I'm starting to think it might actually be a
dream."
"It's not a dream, so hurry up and eat. It'll get cold.
Also, after eating, we'll decide on rooms."
"Deciding rooms?! I'm looking forward to it!!"
"Um... what kind of work will we be made to do? Since
we are living in a house like this, surely it isn't ordinary work, right?"
Gree seems
paranoid. Since he was living in that environment, it's unavoidable that he'd
become suspicious, but I'd like him to trust me by now.
"The work is normal stuff, too. I want you to do
cleaning of this house and such, and since I plan to accept children with no
relatives, I want you to support them together with me."
"Is that... all? You're not gonna make us help you sell
off the kids you take in—"
"There's no way I'd do that. Stop thinking stupid
things and eat your food."
I made Gree, who had stopped his chopsticks to say
stupid things, eat his food, and once we finished eating everything, we
explored the house to decide their room. Currently, no one lives here and there
are many rooms, so I want to let them use them freely, but the number of
necessary rooms will increase as people increase.
In the near future, I have to prepare rooms for Ria, Tricia,
and Maud as well, so although it's bad for Gree and Anne,
I'll have them use the same room. Based on that thought, after looking around
to see which room was good, their room was decided to be the one furthest back
on the second floor.
The size of the room is decent; a room that feels a little
big even for two people living in it. They didn't seem dissatisfied with living
in the same room, so for now, this room is decided.
"Feel free to use this room however you like. It's all
yours."
"Freely use such a wide room? Is it really okay?"
"Of course. Sorry that the two of you have to share the
same room, though."
"It's totally fine! We used to live together in a tent
smaller than this room anyway! Graham-san, thank you truly!! ... Thank you very much!"
"I don't need thanks. I'll have you work properly for
it."
As expected, both Gree and Anne look happy. I
haven't been able to prepare futons yet, but there were plenty of towels, so
spreading those out should serve as a substitute for futons.
"You two must be tired today, so I'll have you work
starting tomorrow. You can rest for today."
"Yeah. I'll work properly. Tell me anything, Graham."
"I'll do anything too!"
"Don't strain yourselves so much; just think about
getting used to things first. Also... you can use the bath freely too. I'll
come back with food again at night, so try not to leave the house."
"Got it. Graham, thank you truly."
"We'll take it easy! ...Is it okay if we go to the
garden?"
"Yeah. The garden is within the premises."
"Yaay! Big Brother, let's play a little before taking a
bath!"
"Anne, it's embarrassing so don't get too
excited!"
Even Gree's expression as he said that couldn't hide
his smile, and I feel like I saw a happy expression appropriate for his age for
the first time. I left the room glancing at their happy expressions.
Truthfully, I wanted to relax together with them, but I have
to go to Ria and the others now. I've probably worried them, and I want
to let the three of them live in this house soon too.
And so, after returning to the inn and checking in on the
three of them, I would have to sit down for another discussion with Ginia and Aoi. This is the heaviest burden... but if I explain the
circumstances, surely they will understand. Telling myself that, I left the
house and headed toward the inn where Ria and the others were.
