After Story. Wedding Ceremony Arc: Returning Home After A Long Time

"......uu, it is somewhat nerve-wracking since it has been such a long time huh"

Priscilla says something like that beside me. Roy and Mei are also feeling nervous beside her. The reason for that lies with the church before our eyes.

This church which, because it got set on fire 4 years ago, ended up being burned to the ground, but had been newly rebuilt. It's the church that raised Priscilla and others.

Today will be the day before the wedding ceremony at Arcadia. Priscilla and others and I, came to give our greetings to Sierra-san, the foster parent-Sister of Priscilla and others who stay here.

It seems Priscilla and others have been sending things like letters and allowances as well, but it seems the last time they met was when they separated previously. They already haven't met for close to 4 years huh. I guess everybody is pretty nervous because of that.

"Here, Priscilla"

"Ye-, yes"

When I grab Priscilla's hand and nudge her, Priscilla nods and starts walking. And when she opened the gate and entered the church's grounds, the sight of children doing farmwork was visible inside. Speaking of which, Priscilla and others had ploughed the fields huh. I suppose it's being passed down even now.

"Koraa! Ben, you, what are you slacking off over there for!"

"Geh, Cyruae-neechan! I- I-, I aiーn't slacking off! I'm just resting!"

"You were resting just now as well, weren't you! Hurry up and get to work!"

"Gyaah! Don't be kicking my butt! You violent woman!"

"That's it! I'm gonna beat you up!"

In that field, a young girl in her 10s was chasing a young boy about the same age around. Children like them are looking at that view and laughing while doing farmwork around.

"How nostalgic huh, Priscilla-oneechan"

"Eeh, how nostalgic huh"

Priscilla and Mei-chan look at that view and smile. Roy beside them is nodding as well. As we're looking at such a view

"Ara ara, slacking off again, Ben? You can't be troubling Cyruae too much, you know?"

Stella-san who carried a ton of laundry came out from the church accompanied by 2 girls about the same as Mei-chan and company. The two girls are also holding laundry.

"I- I-, I'm not slacking off! I'm just resting a bit!"

"Okaa-san, Ben, he rests every few minutes! Don't you think it's weird!?"

The view of everybody having fun living their lives. As we're looking at that view

"Onee-chan and people, whoー?"

I guess probably about 5 years old. Two girls and a boy around that age showed up. They came out from the front entrance huh. Since they're holding a ball in their hands, I suppose they plan to play.

Based on this age, I suppose they either still hadn't come when Priscilla and company left this church, or they don't remember at all even if they had. It looks like they're kids Priscilla and company are seeing for the first time as well.

"We are acquainted with your Okaa-san. Is it alright for us to go in?"

When Priscilla asks at the same eye level as the kids, the kids go into thought, going, 'uーn uーn'. How adorable.

A slightly older boy showed up over there. His age is probably about the same as the kids who were running around in the field just now. It's an age that'll just barely remember if they were around 4 years ago.

"Who are you guys? You don't look like bad people though"

"Fufu, it's been a long time huh, Kaelvir. Have you, forgotten about me?"

Priscilla who smiles at that boy. It looks like Priscilla and others remember, but the boy makes a bewildered expression. Priscilla laughs, going, 'I guess it can't be helped'.

And then, as expected, after making this much noise, the other kids noticed us as well. Now that it's comes to that, Sierra-san and the kids about the same age as Mei-chan and others naturally notice us as well.

Sierra-san looks in our direction and makes a surprised expression, but she heads in our direction with a smile right after. Priscilla is already teary-eyed.

"Welcome back, Priscilla, Mei, Roy"

"......I-, I'm back......Okaa-san"

Maybe she reached her limit with Sierra-san's smile, Priscilla hugged Sierra-san while crying. Mei-chan also hugged her similarly. Roy was looking at the sight of the two of them while laughing, 'heheh'. While tearing up in his eyes.

Those who know Priscilla and others are also tearing up in their eyes. The young ones are watching dumbfoundedly though.

"Let's go inside in any case. Lei-san as well, thank you for coming"

"Yes, my apologies for the late greetings"

"Ufufu, I know a lot about Lei-san through the letters from Priscilla. Thank you very much for making Priscilla happy"

"Please stop it. It is only natural because I love Priscilla as well. Besides, Sierra-san will become my mother-in-law, so please do not humble yourself so much"

Sierra-san makes a troubled-looking face when I say that. However, since Priscilla was nodding with a smile beside me, she acknowledged it, albeit reluctantly.

After that, Priscilla and Mei and Roy probably have tons they want to talk about with Sierra-san and the other kids, so I decided to look after the young kids who don't know Priscilla and others.

Everybody riles up when I show them the popular-with-kids golem show. I might be able to fill my belly with this.

For dinner, we had it extravagantly using the monster meat I gathered. The eyes the kids look at me with are with reverence, and it has turned into something remarkable.

I decided to leave Priscilla and others behind and go back after everybody was satisfied. The whole family probably has tons to catch up on as well. Roy is around as well if anything happens after all, and I've left my golem behind as an escort as well. There shouldn't be any danger.

"Then, Priscilla. I'll come and fetch you tomorrow"

"No way, it is fine. We will be returning tomorrow morning. We have preparations as well after all"

I guess I'll wait if she's going that far. I kiss Priscilla right as we're about to separate. The young kids around are also making noise, going, 'they smooched, they smooched!', and kids who have reached a certain age blush. Of course, Priscilla too.

I received the children's words of, 'come againー', behind me and returned to the Royal Palace.
