"....., everyone, are you okay?"
"Yes, , thank you, Master Rid."
Behind me, Deanna and Capella looked worried.
They were about to step in front of me when the spell was activated, but I stopped them as soon as I saw them.
To be honest, I am already more endurable than the two of them when it comes to the magic barrier, because I have more magical power than the two of them.
However, I had never thought that there was a girl who was the same age as me and could use that level of magic without chanting.
I looked again at the bird tribe girl in front of me. She was surprised that her magic had been blocked, and she was clearly shaken up.
"...... Why⁉ Why won't you go away? After all,...... they are still picking on us,...... they are still picking on everyone,...... and calling us failures and disappointed,....... and when we are no longer needed,....... we are going to be discarded........ And w. I don't want that anymore,...... so I'm going to protect everyone....... ...... '
When she finishes, she holds out her two hands to me again.
The same spell she used earlier is probably going to be used.
f Deanna and Capella, sensing this, were about to step forward, but I stopped them again and shook my head at them.
I shook my head at them. I thought it would be counterproductive to be overbearing to her now.
I walked up to her slowly, holding my hands out wide to either side of her confused face.
Smiling gently, I said to her,.
"Don't worry, I would never bully you. Besides,...... you have sister. I will protect you and ...... your sisters, don't you worry ......?"
After she heard my words, she stared at me with a wary look in her eyes.
I look straight back into her eyes.
Soon after that, I felt the deadly look in her eyes fade away.
"Big brother,...... you have kind eyes. Are you really ...... really going to protect us? Will you never abandon us?"
'I promise. And also delicious food, sweets and soft beds. And also a hot spring ......, but you don't get it, do you? Well, we have a huge bath, so I'm sure you'll love it. So, trust me on this, will you?"
"......Yes, I trust ...... you, big brother. My name is Aria...... and I'm glad...... to meet someone with such kind heart............."
...".⁉ Be careful !"
The girl who called herself Aria seemed to lose consciousness as soon as she finished and fell down on her front.
I immediately ran over to her and embraced her as if to support her.
Aria, who is more slender than I had expected, seems to have lost consciousness, but she is still gasping for breath.
Perhaps the tension of being in a foreign place, combined with her poor physical state, has caused her to become distraught.
While supporting her, I moved my eyes to the back of the cart and was shocked......⁉".
To my surprise, there were at least ten or more girls of the bird tribe, who looked very similar to Aria, in the back of the cart.
Could they be sisters? But there are too many for this.
However, they were also unconscious and seemed to be breathing heavily and dozing.
I immediately ordered the girls to be moved to the dormitory.
Then, Chris, who seemed to have heard the commotion earlier, came rushing in from the dormitory with a bloody look on her face.
"Master Rid, are you all right ?"
'Oh, . Chris, I'm fine. I wonder if these bird tribe girls are sisters?"
I looked at Chris with a worried look on my face, and with a relaxed expression on my face, I looked at the bird tribe girls who were being carried by the knights and maids.
'The children of the bird tribe were revealed to be sisters and in poor health when they were handed over to the knights and maids. Because of their poor health, we had given them the same priority as the children of the fox tribe for transfer, but we never thought that they would cause such a commotion. ...... I am truly sorry."
"No, don't worry about it. I think it was the right decision to give them priority in terms of their health condition. Thank you for your worry, Chris."
To reassure her, I gave her a smiling face as I expressed my gratitude.
Chris was humbled by my words of thanks, but seemed relieved and patted her chest.
And while I was having this conversation with her, things were moving quickly around the place.
◇
"I think we're finally getting some peace."
"Yes, I am. Thank you for your hard work, Master Rid."
Deanna responds to my words with a bail.
After we finish moving the bird tribe girls, including Aria from before, to their lodgings, the carriage back is empty and the area finally calms down.
But I have to make this move four more times.
I shouted to the knights and maids around me so that they could hear me.
'Thank you, everyone, but there are four more times the carriage has to be taken in, so please be on your guard."
I heard strong replies from those around me, and I patted my chest at everyone's high morale.
At that time, Capella, who was standing beside me, spoke to me with a dubious look on her face.
Rid-sama, the bird tribe girls you just mentioned might be the children of the "Enhanced Bloodline. I think we should check with Chris and investigate just in case."
"Enhanced bloodline ......? What is that?
I was dubious about these disturbing words.
After that, Capella gave me a brief explanation of the "Enhanced Bloodline".
in order to win the "Beast King Battle" held among the beastmen, there used to be a culture in the old beastmen tribe to keep having children with other stronger beastmen tribe members as a way to produce stronger warriors.
However, as a result of such activities that continued for generations, children of strong bloodlines tend to be weak and frail, and the practice has been dying out recently.
However, there are still a certain number of beastmen who continue the tradition.
And it is said that children who are judged to be weak due to the influence of an enhanced bloodline are often called "failures" or " disappointments" within the beastmen tribe, and often suffer a tragic fate.
I see, it must mean that the racehorse mechanism in my past life is being done by a "human" as I remembered it from my previous life.
After Capella's explanation, I muttered in disgust.
'That sucks. The goodness or the badness a ...... person is determined by birth and bloodlines. And it's not just talent or strength that determines how good or bad someone is."
At that moment, Deanna, who was listening to Capella's story with me on the side, nodded her head in agreement with me.
'... seems to be the case. Perhaps Aria and her sisters had gone through something painful that we can't even imagine. ......"
I nodded at her reply and shifted my gaze to Capella.
"Thank you for the explanation, Capella. I'll ask Chris to check on this as well."
"I would be happy to be of any help to you on this matter, "
"I am very happy to be of assistance to you. I even if only in a little way, "
Capella bows to me as he finishes.
When he looked up, I again expressed my gratitude and called out to Chris, who was a short distance from me.
She seemed to recognize my voice immediately and rushed over to me.
"Master Rid, how can I help you?"
"Yes, actually. ......"
I tell Chris about the bird tribe girls and their enhanced bloodlines and ask her to do some research for me in the future.
But she seemed to have an idea of what I was referring to, and she looked grim and afraid.
Yes, Actually, Emma told me that she has some concern about the girls, so that's probably what it's about. I will look into it as soon as I have finished the intake process."
Emma is a beastman, so maybe she had some idea what was going on when she saw the birdmen girls.
"Thank you and best regards. By the way, where is Emma?'
I nodded at Chris's words, then replied and looked around.
"Emma should be with the last of the group, heading this way with Rubens'.
'I see, I would have liked to talk to her a bit if she was here, but I guess that will have to wait for another time."
After replying to Chris, we continued chatting for a bit and then noticed a group approaching us from a short distance off.
They looked different from the transfer carriages, but I wondered what they were.
But that question was quickly answered as they approached us.
The knight leading the group took a step forward, looked at me, and relaxed his expression.
, " Master Rid, I have come to assist with the welcoming process under the direction of Master Rainer. Please give me your orders."
"Cross......⁉Thank you for your help. But what about father?"
Yes, a group of knights led by Cross was coming toward us.
However, the fact that Father's instructions had been given suggests that he had made some sort of arrangements.
However, when I looked around, there was no sign of my father.
Cross saw me looking around and muttered with a pleasant smile on his face.
Master Rid, I have a message from Master Rainer. "I'm going to leave all the on-the-spot management of this matter in your hands. Do your best."
...."..⁉ Okay. Cross, thank you again.'
I thanked Cross and immediately asked him to help me with the acceptance work.
Originally, in our original discussions, we had secured the necessary manpower for the knights.
But in the circumstances, it is always good to have the help.
At that time, Cross said, "Excuse me, Master Lid," and gave me an earful.
Actually, Master Rainer was going to come here, too, but he was worried that if he did, he would have to take away Rid's command of the site. But when he heard a sound like a lightning strike, he reached the limit of his concern. As a result, he sent me and a knight. Master Rid is well respected and loved."
'Ah, ah, ah, ...... I see.'
I muttered with a dry laugh, imagining my father in the office, worried and irritated.
'Father is ...... more of a worrier than I ...... ...... thought he would be.
But in the meantime, I saw a new group of carriages coming toward us.
The welcoming process had only just begun.
"....., everyone, are you okay?"
"Yes, , thank you, Master Rid."
Behind me, Deanna and Capella looked worried.
