Day [Life]: Incarnation
The Journey After the Assault Towards Kampung Lapangan

A few days after the attack, Nina and Yuu said goodbye to us to return to the kingdom quickly to report. Since it would be quick if it was just the two of them, Sera decided to stay with us.

During the battle, we left Meli with Sefi the healer. Right now we are preparing to go to the city of Yahoo and then we will part with the royal forces.

Their job is to escort the citizens of Yuma to the city of Yahoo. I think they'll also be a little helpful like taking care of some paperwork. They only provide information and ask the government there to hire and provide little means like new residents.

"Papa, Meli wants to see Grandma's house, is it okay?"

His head looked up slightly as he spoke to me. His eyes are trying to meet my eyes. His right hand held Zena's hand tightly.

"Then how about we just go straight?"

Saying to him.

"Eh!? Can I?"

He surprised her with a happy answer.

"Of course, anyway... Papa hasn't introduced you yet, has he?"

I said a little lower my voice.

"Hm? Does it have to be like that, papa?"

Seeing my reaction he then slightly tilted his head with many question marks on his face.

"Of course, but it doesn't matter. Do you really want to go there?"

I asked Meli back.

"Yes! Sure did! I want to go there!"

"Yes! Then let's ask permission!"

I said while stroking his head.

Zena just smiled as normally. The surrounding people were a little muddled with Zena's devastating smile. They were all pounding as if something excessive was happening.

"Leader, I have something to say."

My words are near the captain.

"Yes, what is it?"

"Me and these two men will get out of the company and continue on our way."

"Hm? Where's it headed?"

"Halm Village."

"Well, do you have supplies?"

"Enough."

"Alright, then take care of yourself."

With that I then retreated and went out of line with Meli who was being carried by Zena.

"Hm.. Then let's continue."

On this journey, we did not use the train, as did the group. They walk, right? We also take care of our health. Every now and then Meli walks on her own feet, but when she gets tired, I'll carry her, when it's my next turn to hand her over to Zena.

A few days passed. We went through a detour so as not to encounter monsters or thieves. The detour path is usually not favored by traders, so it will be very difficult to rob or steal in this path. If it's a monster then, it doesn't matter, because we're in the middle of a vast prairie.

We spent a few days walking and I finally saw from afar a small village.

Ah.. The view makes me nostalgic...

A warm gaze was created from the direction Zena was looking at my longing gaze from the side.

"The village is calm..."

Zena.

"Eh!? Ah, well, then let's move on before it gets dark."

I was embarrassed to answer immediately.

"Uhm...?"

Meli who was curled up on Zena's back woke up and rubbed her eyes.

"For mama..."

He casually said it. Or actually it's almost afternoon..

"Uhm, you woke up huh. We're almost there, you know."

Because of Zena's words he then straightened his gaze.

"Law..! Papa's hometown?"

Said Meli who then turned towards me.

"Just right, Grandma's house is there."

With a smile I said it.

During the journey leading to the village, Meli who had woken up on Zena's back asked about various things. Like, any food my mom can make, what the place is like and everything else.

As I was about to set foot into the gate I saw someone sleeping in a position sitting under a tree near the fence.

"A good sleep, yeah..."

I said I saw the guy. That person is my next door neighbor. Called Huse. She is married and has 1 daughter who is now 10 years old.

"Do you know him?"

Said Zena who saw him fall asleep.

"He's my neighbor, Huse, he's just keeping his land asleep as usual."

He is a land farmer, every day after finishing planting seedlings, he will keep the land to sleep. Usually a young man would come to wake him up, a young man named Dorm who was a close neighbor of the land belonging to Huse. He often visited to watch while reading a book under a tree.

"Oh! Luke!"

Because he's older than me, he doesn't call me 'sister'. She greeted me.

"When did you come back? What the hell is this anyway.. You brought 1 beautiful woman and 1 small child?"

While looking in disbelief he looked at Zena and Meli with a puzzled look.

"Ah, my name is Zena, um.. Luke's wife-to-be..."

While looking embarrassed, she then lowered her head to hide her shy face.

"Oh! Ah, my name is Dorm, Luke's friend. Then I'll take you to his house."

Speak with kindness.

And quickly led us.

"Luke, how did you get such a beautiful woman?"

"Hm?"

"ah! Of course I wouldn't have thought that you forced her, would I? Haha...."

What the hell are you saying? After being separated from your friend all this time...

"No, I really love her. I didn't force her anyway."

"Oh, then, can I ask for a way to get a beautiful wife?"

A beautiful wife can't cook and do homework, right?

"Hm... Maybe it should be an adventurer?"

Said continued.

"No, I just saved him?"

Because I don't understand how I say it.

"There's no way just that it would make him like you, right?"

His words have a point but..

"Is this the power of love?"

"Impossible...."

He then grumbled during the trip. Zena just smiled as usual. The villagers greeted me in a friendly manner as usual. It seems like the population of this village is increasing a little..

It can be seen from the number of houses that increased by 2 buildings. Looks like someone has a family ahead of me.

"We're here! Aunt Lucia!!! I brought you someone who wants to meet you!!"

Said from the front of the house. The door of the house was wide open, as if someone had walked in.

"Dorm, I told you to knock on the door and still yell, you're all grown up?"

Mother scolded Dorm who loudly said it.

"Ah, sorry, but he wants to see you."

"Hm? Oho! Luke!"

She quickly hugged me tightly.

"Then I'll say goodbye to Aunt Lucia."

With that he then immediately went towards the land belonging to Huse.

"Jeez, you've grown up...."

He then took off his embrace and wiped the little tears out.

"Oh? Them?"

As he asked so he looked at the two of them closely.

"Ah, my future wife, her name is Zena."

"Include me, my name is Zena."

He then repeated my words.

"Ah, you are Beautiful... Moreover, blue hair is rare, you are unique."

Say mother happily.

"Then this little boy is my daughter. Meli."

.

"Granny!! Grandma is prettier than I imagined."

Oops! He's saying.

"Oh, that? Then, want granny to drive around?"

"You!!"

He quickly asks to get off Zena and move on to mom.

"Sorry, mom. Meli's a little excited..."

Zena.

"It's okay, his name is also a child. This happened to Luke when he was a child. Haha."

"Stop it mom, it's embarrassing..."

"Oh? She's embarrassed."

Laughing he then carried Meli easily. Since my mother was an adventurer, she could already raise it. My mother's age today is 39, and my father's age is 40. They are 1 year apart while I am now 15 years old Zena is also the same age. In this world, only dragonkin and beastmen can live long.

Their average lifespan can be up to 5000 years. As for elves, they could usually only last up to 500 years at most. I envy those who have long lives.

"Then I'll take Meli around. You two go in first."

While walking away from the two of us, he held Meli's hand happily.
