Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~

More Souvenirs

We left town to search for Pastel Rabbits.

“Which way are we going?”

“"That way!"”

“Eh, that way?”

Led by Allen and Elena, we veered off the path right from the start.

“To leave the road right after exiting the town…”

“So we’re taking the roadless road, huh.”

Lancer-san and Eugene looked stunned, but still followed us.

““Ah!””

Within just a few minutes, Allen and Elena noticed something and dashed off.

… We hadn’t even reached the forest yet—it was just a wide open plain.

“Eh, did they find something?”

“I don’t see anything though?”

Theodore-kun and Latis-kun tilted their heads at Allen and Elena’s behavior.

““First one!””

““Ohh~””

“… That was fast.”

Apparently, there was a Pastel Rabbit hiding in a small thicket.

“Latis-kun, can you hold it?”

“Me?”

“That’s right.”

Allen handed the Pastel Rabbit he had caught to Latis-kun.

“It’s a lovely shade of green.”

“We don’t have this color at home!”

Theodore-kun petted the Pastel Rabbit that Latis-kun was holding, and the rabbit seemed completely relaxed.

… It really doesn’t try to run away, huh~ What happened to being wild?

“Whoa~ I feel like I’m witnessing something unbelievable.”

“Eugene, I feel the same.”

“Why isn’t that Pastel Rabbit running away?”

“It seems totally domesticated, doesn’t it?”

Lancer-san and Eugene were again looking dumbfounded—or maybe exasperated?

“Allen, Elena, we’ve found a Pastel Rabbit, so can we call it a day?”

““Huh?””

The two of them looked at me as if to say, *What are you talking about?*

… I asked hopefully, but I guess they’re not done yet.

“We wanna find lots more!”

“So many we can’t even carry them!”

“Ah, yeah, you want that many, huh…”

““Of course! Next, let’s go over there!””

Before I could object, Allen and Elena dashed off toward a small grove.

“Allen-kun, wait for me~”

“Elena-chan, you’re too fast~”

Theodore-kun and Latis-kun started running after them, so Lancer-san, Eugene, and I hurried to follow.

““There!””

“Eh? Where?”

“Pastel Rabbits? Are there more?”

“Wait a sec.”

“Over here.”

As soon as we entered the grove, Allen and Elena seemed to find more Pastel Rabbits.

… Why is it so easy for them to find them?

““We found some~””

“Whoa~ there’s a bunch!”

“So many different colors too!”

Allen and Elena returned holding two Pastel Rabbits each in their arms.

“One more time!”

“Let’s go again!”

They placed the four Pastel Rabbits at our feet and immediately went back in the same direction.

“For now.”

“This is it~”

They quickly came back again, each holding two more, making eight total. With the first one, that makes nine.

““Hold them, hold them~””

“… Huh?”

“Ehh!? Me too?”

Allen and Elena prompted Lancer-san and Eugene to hold some Pastel Rabbits too.

“Sorry, we’re escorts, so we can’t have our hands full.”

“It’s okay! Allen and Elena will protect you!”

“No problem, no problem! Here you go!”

““……””

Lancer-san didn’t want to occupy his hands in case of an emergency, but Allen and Elena immediately dismissed that and forcibly handed two Pastel Rabbits to each of them.

““Every one of them is so cute~””

Theodore-kun and Latis-kun eagerly held two Pastel Rabbits each.

““Here you go, Oniichan.””

Then they handed the last remaining Pastel Rabbit to me.

“Allen, Elena, satisfied now? If so, let’s head back. Even if we have permission, we can’t keep Theodore-kun and Latis-kun outside town for too long.”

““Ah! Just one more time~””

Just as I told Allen and Elena it was time to head back, they spotted something again and ran off before I could stop them.

““We’re back~””

““Waaah~~””

“““Whoa~”””

For the finishing blow, Allen and Elena returned with six more Pastel Rabbits.

That makes fifteen total now.

“… Takumi-san, is it okay if we send Eugene back to town first?”

“I don’t mind, but why?”

“If we go back like this… we’ll draw a lot of attention, won’t we?”

“Ahh, yeah, we’ll definitely stand out.”

We’d get a lot of stares. That’s happened before, so no doubt about it.

“Let’s have him arrange for a carriage. Then we can board at the gate. It’ll be better for the boys.”

“Good idea.”

Although the townspeople don’t necessarily know Theodore-kun and Latis-kun are sons of a lord, it’s best to avoid attention that could make their faces too well known.

“Eugene, sorry to ask, but could you handle it? And… are you okay going alone from here?”

“Yes, from here to the town, there aren’t many monsters, so it should be fine.”

“Got it. Thanks.”

“Yes! I’ll go now—ah! Um… these kids…”

And so, we asked Eugene to run back to town and prepare a carriage for us.

Just as he was about to dash off, he remembered the Pastel Rabbits he was holding and hesitantly held them out to me.

“Ah, sorry. I’ll take them.”

Since everyone else was already holding two Pastel Rabbits, I took them.

Well, Allen and Elena even have one on top of their heads.

““““We’re back~””””

When we reached the town, we returned to the Risner estate using the Risner family’s carriage that Eugene had arranged.

Seeing us, Cedric-san and the others looked more astonished than surprised.

Well, everyone was holding a Pastel Rabbit.

In the end, three Pastel Rabbits were taken in by the Risner family, two by Patrick-san’s wife, two by Matthew-san’s parents’ home, and two by Lancer-san’s family.

That left six rabbits, and we hadn’t decided who would take them.

Eugene had been especially fond of them, but since he lived in a dorm, he had to give up. Allen and Elena seemed worried about that.

So instead of looking for adopters through requests at the Adventurers’ Guild, they decided to take the remaining Pastel Rabbits to the royal capital.

They wanted to ask if it might be possible to keep them at the Knights Order’s dorm.

Well, asking is no problem, so we agreed to fulfill the kids’ request.
