On the Way Home I Got a Bride and Twin Daughters, Who Were Dragons Chapter 44

Chapter 44 – And Then Visitation Trial (5)

“I hate it! Stop it, mother!”

Aoi disheveled her hair by shaking her head to deny the truth.

I was pathetic and could not do anything but watch.

I could not move.

The reason was because the opponent was a transcendent existence.

I understood by just standing here.

I will die by this person’s whims.

And now that it has become a threat to Aoi, the only thing left I could do was remain silent.

There may be other things.

There may be an answer so that we can come to an understanding for Yule’s question.

But I can not find any.

My thought continued to dwell in the same place, and I could not come up with an answer.

Coming here, I felt angry at my own stupidity.

I can not do anything.

Aoi who was suffering in front of me, and Jaja and Nana who did not know anything and were depending on us, there was nothing I could do.

“This kind of thing… it’s too much…”

Hopelessness came out.

What Yule was saying was reasonable.

If it was just to the level of human delinquents, then I will not lose.

If there were at least twenty people, and if you were not afraid of getting injured, then their is a fair chance of winning.

If it was an armed opponent…

It’s no good, I just do not feel like I can win.

I can not follow the speed of a bullet with my eyes.

It was impossible for the one with a knife to give up facing someone who was empty-handed.

If an object that exceeds your physical size is approaching, you can not stop it even at about 10 km/h.

If the assailant did something like that, I will without a doubt, die.

If I die, Aoi will suffer.

If Aoi suffers, the twins will be exposed to risk.

I am at a loss.

The problem that I had been trying not to think about before was now standing in our way.

If I want to continue on like this, I have to overcome this wall…

No matter how you put it, isn’t it too much?

There is no way I can overcome such a trial!

“What’s wrong? If you say you can do it, then reply.”

“Wait! Let me think about it!”

“If it’s time to think, it’s been a couple of weeks. You missed your first answer because your life was too satisfying. If you put off your answer, your present happiness is just taking advantage of someone else’s kindness. In the end, like you said, you’ll depend on these guys kindness and indulge in lazy inactivity.”

“No… That’s not it! Mother, please!”

“How long do you plan to act like a child!”

Thunder resounded along with that loud voice.

The weather forecast said that it was going to be sunny.

But outside, there was a downpour and violent gusts of wind were blowing.

This was the wrath of a dragon.

“Regardless if you want it or not, you were blessed with two lives! Look! The eyes of your daughters who are looking at you! Those are the lives that you should protect!”

“Aaah! Aaaaaaaah! I hate it!”

Aoi was sitting down and holding Nana.

She was screaming while shaking her head over and over.

Nana was holding something back while watching Aoi.

It was unbelievable.

Both Jaja and Nana were silently looking at us without crying.

The twins who always cried in response to the most trivial things were just staring at us motionlessly.

“Now, make a conclusion. That pain is your responsibility.”

Yule said that and put away her wings.

At the same time, the wind stopped.

The rain and wind outside the window lost their vigor and slowly calmed down.

But my heart was still stormy.

“I… Nana… Jaja… b-but… Kunpei-san”

Aoi stopped shaking her head and continued to mumble.

Nana patted Aoi’s head.

“Aoi…”

Aoi’s body responded to me with a twitch.

She slowly turned towards me with vacant eyes.

Our lines of sight met.

Aoi gazed at me with her wet eyes, her usual liveliness was nowhere to be found.

“Kunpei-san, I like you. I like you a lot. I like the kind-hearted Kunpei-san, I like your strong sense of responsibility, how you treat Shouhei-san, Jaja or Nana, your smile is really sweet. I love you from the bottom of my heart…”

Aoi mustered her strength and told me her honest feelings.

She slowly stood up and walked towards me.

She came in front of me and reached for Jaja.

“Come”

Jaja spread her hands to Aoi, as usual.

She gently took Jaja and faintly smiled.

“Hey, it’s papa…”

Wait.

“Say Bye-bye”

No, wait a minute.

“We apologize for the inconvenience.”

Really wait. Please.

“If we continue to stay here, we’ll cause more trouble than this.”

Such a thing!

“I don’t really know how to thank you. You’ve also spent a lot of money.”

No, like I said!

“Actually, I wanted to return a lot to Kunpei-san who helped me out.”

Words were not coming out of my mouth!

“Really, halfway even until the end…”

Aoi’s eyes rapidly lost light.

I could not do anything but silently watch that happen.

Aoi slowly turned around and separated from me.

“…it’s a tough decision.”

“Don’t speak please, I beg you”

Aoi pressed her forehead on Yule’s chest and looked down.

“Brat, much obliged. Well, I’ll send you some valuables later.”

“… don’t, need it.”

Why could I only respond to such a trivial matter.

“Is that so? Well, I’ll do it even if you don’t need it. Either way, I’ll do as I like.”

Yule hugged Aoi, Jaja, and Nana with both hands and jumped out of the window.

The next moment, she spread her wings and climbed up to the sky.

I could only chase after them through the window frame.

I just continued to look through the window frame, but I could not take even a single step.
