The day after the bowl battle .......
I woke up, looked around the room and thought, "Oh, is that ......?" and rubbing my eyes, I rolled my eyes when my mother said to me, "Phew, good morning, Lid".
At the same time, I realised that I had slept soundly in my mother's room, and my face turned bright red.
In addition, Mel came to visit me in my mother's room, and she got angry with me, saying, "'Niisama' only, it's not fair !".
Later, with Mother's help, I managed to calm Mel down.
At breakfast, I felt that Father was giving me some kind of a grinning look, but ...... I dared not ask him.
After breakfast, I set about getting ready to head to my quarters.
I was concerned about the beastmen children after the bowl war was over.
It was never because I was embarrassed that I was sleeping in my mother's bed, you know?
◇ ◇
When Diana and I arrived at our accommodation, the atmosphere was somehow a little different from before.
If anything, it seems brighter than before.
And the beastmen children we pass greet us politely.
When I greet them smilingly, they all seem to have a cheerful look on their faces.
Is something wrong? When I visit the office with doubts in my mind, Capella greets me.
'Good morning, Capella. Thanks for yesterday. So, did you find anything unusual?'
'Good morning, Master Rid . No, nothing special. Also, I made a bigger dinner than usual, as you suggested, and all the children were very happy."
I see. I see. That's good. Also, the atmosphere in the accommodation has brightened up a little."
Capella showed a little thoughtful gesture before muttering.
This is because the results of yesterday's bowl battle have made the beastmen children feel a sense of awe towards Rid.
'Haha, then I guess it was worth having a bowl battle.'
I replied with a smile at his words.
I know they're not the most straight-forward of kids.
But it would be a good sign.
As I was thinking this, Deanna put down a cup of freshly brewed tea.
"Thank you, Diana."
'Not at all.'
As she bails, there is a knock at the office door.
When she answered, Cheryl, a werewolf, entered the room.
She looked dignified and serious, so I asked her what was going on.
'Hello, Cheryl. What's up today?"
'Yes, I'm here. The fact is, we selected representatives from each tribe. In addition, everyone wants to say hello to Rid-sama once again. If you don't mind, could you give us a few minutes of your time?"
'That's fine, but ...... what's going on all of a sudden, everyone?'
Cheryl then slowly began to explain.
After we returned to the mansion after yesterday's bowl battle, Cheryl, Ovelia, Kahlua, Noir and the others took the lead and they discussed a lot of things in their own way.
As a result, the children of the beastmen tribe decided to follow me no matter what.
Cheryl continues her words with a determined look.
'We are all attracted by Master Rid's personality and strength. I would like to apologise for my rudeness the other day, and to say hello to you again.'
The rudeness of the other day, such as the exchange in the main conference room? I don't really mind that much.
But, well, I'm very glad you decided to follow me.
I nodded slowly.
'Yeah, okay. Then may I ask everyone to come to the conference room?'
'Yes, yes, I will.'
When she nodded at my words, she left the Oval Office. I leaned my back against the back of the chair I was sitting in and looked up to the heavens and muttered
'Phew ...... it's all thanks to the bowl battle, isn't it? I think I can get a lot more done upfront than I thought.'
Capella and Diana smile in agreement at my mutterings.
'It seems so. There are a lot of talented kids here. ...... I'm looking forward to 'martial arts training' now too.'
'Hmph,...... as one who swears loyalty to the Bardia family, let's show them that they too can acquire the 'strength and civility' to live up to it.'
They are smiling, but there is something pitch black and insane about them.
The two are smiling, but there's something about them that gives off a pitch-black mad atmosphere.
I shook my head in disappointment.
'Hah,...... we're not making up a battle group,...... be careful not to overdo it, okay?'
"...... I'm aware of that."
"Of course I know that."
The two of Diana and Capella, who responded with a gesture that only this time was in unison, I involuntarily showed an anxious face.
