Nigotta Hitomi no Lilianne Chapter 16.2

CHAPTER 16 – FAIRY AND NAME AND – PART 1&2/3

Sixteen months has passed.

Two big events happened after I was able to hear the fairy.

One of them was the birthday party of the person whose birthday we have not celebrated yet, my father, Alek.
He didn’t celebrate his birthday last year, but it was a grandiose celebration this year.

It seems his birthday party last year was suspended because of work.
Few things I didn’t understand appeared in the conversation.

Among them.

「It’s really nice that the things I had to clean-up didn’t pile up this year」

He was so impressed he cried.

Does Alek work as a janitor……?

I thought that we should just celebrate it on another day, but it seems events like this can’t be held on different days than the actual birth dates.

Is there some religious reason or something?

Anyhow, the event progressed with me placed on Alek’s lap from the beginning of the party till the very end, with Elder brother and Elder sister glued to my sides.

They looked like prime examples of over-doting family members the whole time.

Claire and Ena were moving a lot.

It wasn’t like on my first birthday, but there were quite a lot of people.
About thirty people gathered to celebrate Alek’s birthday in a rather large room similar to the party room that we used for my first birthday.

A birthday party with Alek as the main star…… I was able to ascertain what kind of people the people who gathered for the main star were.

「Everyone, thank you for gathering for my birthday party! Please, leave the relationship between lord and servant aside for today and enjoy yourselves! Kanpai!」

Right…… the people who gathered seem to be servants.

‘Seem’ is because these people never entered my room before.

Therefore, I thought there must be a few servants.
Although I never heard their voices before.

However, aren’t there quite a lot of people?

They are working hard since it’s a birthday party, aren’t they?

It’s a house with a party room so I though the house could be large enough to be called a mansion so I thought it wouldn’t be strange if there were at least ten servants, but I never thought there would be over thirty of them.

Besides, it’s unknown if all of them are attending.

Even dishes seemed to be carried in several times, and there were also quite a lot of people like waiters.

Perhaps they may be just temporarily hired, but it’s still is thirty people at the very least.

More than half of the temporary servant-like people have some cosplay equipment.

Old man…… you have quite a nice hobby! Not half bad!

The servants were also smiling all the time.

Naturally, a considerable amount of talk was about me.
Alek delightfully handled it all.

Just by seeing, I can tell that the relationship between employers and employees is good.
Rather, because I didn’t see before, I can only say that it seems good.

Although the servants weren’t allowed to participate on my birthday, I guess the relationship is still good.

Incidentally, the faces of the personnel at that time was completely different from the personnel this time.
Naturally, there were no people cosplaying with animal ears at that time.

I think it must be in order to meet Alek’s or Claire’s character.

There may be good and bad between the employers and employees, but I was simply happy.

Therefore, I decided to give Alek a reward since it’s his birthday.

I mean, I’m older when mental age comes at play.

Ah, incidentally, Alek turned thirty this year.

Therefore, it can’t be helped.

Maa, even if I say a reward, I’m just a baby, and because I see you only once every seven days because you are always busy, but that will definitely work.

“Papa.”

Or.

“Otousama.”

He was desperate to make me call him like that.
He will be definitely pleased with a reward like that.

After such thought process, I simply executed it.
I don’t regret, but I am reflecting.

「Otou~shama, oedeto~gojaimashu」

That moment, when the party room became silent just like the hundred people before, I realized that I did it again, but it was already too late.

…… I don’t regret, probably.

The second big event is that I have learned the fairy’s name.

Her name is Kulestilt.
Pet name, Kuti.

Because I didn’t have inconvenience not knowing her name, I realized that I hadn’t asked her name two days after I became able to hear her.

Still, it took time to get to know her name.

That’s because I didn’t know the word for “name.”

It may seem surprising but it’s now easy to shape things magical power (Temp), but it’s quite difficult to derive the intended meaning from names and actions that do not have definite shapes.

Therefore, what was useful was Theo’s reading.

“What kind of tree is this tree? It’s a curious tree.”

It was a book which reminded me of a certain CM1.

This is what the book said.

“Although our tree, it still has no name.”

That being the case, the moment Theo read that line, I shook her from my head and caught her.
While hitting the book indicating to stop reading, I wrote words of magical power (Temp) at the same time.

“Book read words make.”

Is what I wrote.

Kuti and I use these four words as a code, which holds the meaning of wanting to know the last sentence of the book that was read.
These four words come to utilization when I have problems understanding while listening to the reading.

“Book” and “read” and “words” were relatively straightforward to learn, but “make” was a pain.

“Read” also falls into the same complicated system, but I have learned the right letters after pointing at my siblings who were reading me with magical power (Temp) many times.

As a result of various thinking, and creating a situation where producing was necessary, I have finally learned this “make.”

It goes without saying that the efficiency of this operation has tremendously increased after being able to hear.

When I couldn’t hear her voice, I couldn’t learn words while listening to the reading.
It was impossible to study the “sentences” because the “words” and “short sentences” couldn’t be explained properly when I couldn’t hear her.

So, with the explanation by voice in the present situation, she can form sentences during the reading and teach a meaning of each word.

As a result of succeeding in learning in such way, I have learned the word “name, ” and I finally got to hear her name.

It was really difficult.

Incidentally, at first when I was hitting the book, Are? Did I read you this book before? was asked a lot, but after repeating it for several times, it seems they noticed the difference between interruption and already read.

In case a book was already read, I shake my hands a lot after hitting the book. The temporary interruption is only by hitting a book, and because they read me while sitting me on their laps, they look down at me, and they soon noticed that me looking up, back at them means to resume the reading.

Honestly speaking, I thought they might find my non-baby actions despite being just a baby eerie, but the revision called love comes to play there.

I’m anxious about the future, mainly in them developing a Sister Complex.

No…… it may be already too late.

By succeeding in learning her name, I was able to understand the meaning behind the letters she has made with magical power (Temp) the first time.

It was her name.

「What a terrible fellow, not being able to read my name which I wrote with so much trouble~! I was so depressed that time!」

She said.
But, I will forgive you now that you can read it! She said while not forgetting to make a smug face.

And now, she continues helping me study.
During reading, I can learn sentence composition and various words at the same time, so the efficiency has become staggering, not comparable to before, and it was now possible to feel the “degree of improvement” that I wasn’t able to feel when I just started learning.

When you know the degree of improvement, you gain confidence, and confidence further accelerates your progress.
Precisely, a true spiral that’s raising my efficiency further.

When I realize how much I am progressing, I become happy.

Feeling as if no one could stop me now, I steadily study under Fairy Sensei.
