After talking together for a while, Kuffin glanced at the moon in the sky and stood up.

“I have to go now. I’ll come again tomorrow. Mino will come to sleep, so let’s have some fun together, kekeke…!”

“listen···! I hear you…!”

“are you okay. You don’t know anything yet.”

“Hey, you…! Kids know that right away.”

Kuffin bent down and looked at Mino.

“Do you know what Mino’s mom and dad are doing?”

“hmm? Pluck? kiss? Jwaap?”

Kuffin, who covered his mouth with both hands, bent his back and burst into laughter, while Gel, who was on his knees, let out a silent scream as he held his head in his hands.

“Coupin…! Don’t teach your kid strange things…!”

“I’m a demon, so what’s up?”

“Half are my children. It’s only natural that I want to raise her like a princess.”

Couffin smirks. Sharp teeth that did not match the appearance were revealed.

“Gel, kids grow up without parents.”

Gel frowned and replied.

“It’s true, but I can’t give up. Mino and you too!”

At the answer of the enemy soldiers who once risked their lives fighting each other, Kuffin’s face brightened. She turned her face away and answered.

From noble mtl dot com

“Hey, really. As you’ve heard, human men care terribly for their families.”

“Let’s run away together like Kuffin.”

Now, the corner of Coupin’s mouth went up. When she turned her head again, Gel, who was hugging the sleeping Mino, was sitting with a sad expression on her face.

“It’s something I have to go over there. Somewhere inside the Demon King’s territory…”

“no.”

Kuffin raised his hand to block Gel’s words.

“I am not strong enough to protect you two. Just enough to protect my body.”

“I have saved enough. You can use that money to prepare an automaton.”

Couffin, who had snorted a little, now scratched his head a little.

Looks like this kid is serious.

Kuffin bent down and took the sleeping Mino from Gel and held it in his arms. She gazed at Gel in the moonlight.

“Phalance, Bofors, Sirka.”

The name of a relatively recently introduced hardskin automaton. It was a heavily armored, high-mobility, high-output automaton that Harrison bought by mobilizing all sorts of threats, conciliation, and trickery against the lord of Argon because regular automatons could not handle the fighting power of the demons.

said Cupin with a laugh.

“You have to be at the level of those guys to be able to live without difficulty. These monsters are no joke.”

It is the latest model for custom production, and is a complete combat automaton with a cost of over 500 million units. It was too much to cover with the savings of a single guard. Gel’s face contorted miserably.

Couffin, who had a slightly sad face, stroked his face a little and added.

“But I don’t know if those guys can stand up to the Demon Man. So you don’t have to go far. It’s the safest here.”

“damn···! Are you a wild goose daddy…!”

“hahahahaha! Is that a good word for you?”

Gel stood up and unpacked his backpack and put it on her.

“It is a gift. All I can give you is this.”

“I’m always thankful. Yes, this time I have something for you too.”

When I took out the bundle I brought, rock salt, monster bones and horns, ornaments, and smoked sausages were revealed. Couffin grinned, showing sharp teeth.

“I made it with that little doll. Try one.”

Having been served homemade food for the first time, Gel picked up the sausage and began to chew it. Tears flow in streams.

“Kuhup…! Eh, this is a bit salty…”

“you idiot. Do not season with more salt with your tears.”

Gel stopped crying and started laughing. Coupin smiled as well.

Gell, who watched Kupin disappear into the darkness of the forest until the end, soon saw her no longer visible, covered his face with a mask, and hurriedly jumped over the truce line and ran with his bundle in his arms. Before he knew it, the longsword he had retrieved was in his hand.

The Demon Guard Diva, who was watching it from a distance in the woods, saw the returned Coupin.

“Is that yours?”

“huh. Thank you for lending me your seat.”

After carrying Minnow to her, Kuffin searched through her backpack and found what she was looking for. It was a metal candy box.

“This is a return gift. Please ask again tomorrow. This time it’s the cave in front of you.”

“Mum yum yum, maybe it’s because it’s spring, but they’re full of reservations these days.”

Diva asked after returning Mino and taking out a candy from the candy box and throwing it into her mouth.

“Can I borrow that for a day?”

“paddle! no! It’s mine!”

Couffin, who immediately bared his teeth and writhed, soon loosened his face and spoke again.

“no. it’s mine won’t give it to anyone If you do something like the last garrison captain, I won’t let you go.”

“okay. don’t be too hot That’s what I did once. don’t take it away.”

“Uh, um, sorry.”

Diva smiled at Coupin, who calmed her anger, and pushed her face.

“Is it okay to look around?”

“hey!”

“Kekeke!”

The cranks who returned to the city were called to the guards who were contacted the next day and heard a voice.

“I know it’s an accident, but that’s it.”

1st Guard Captain Celine looked back at them with her hands behind her back. At the desk in the interrogation room, Carrot and Crank were sitting in their respective chairs, looking at her.

Said Captain Celine, who crossed her arms and poked her face out. Even though she was standing, she was about eye level with the crank.

“You said you took off your helmet there?”

“Yes, otherwise there would have been a great scuffle.”

Celine, who was listening, narrowed her eyebrows.

“Don’t destroy the center that the people in charge of both sides have barely aligned. As a result, nothing happened, so if the mangjeong went wrong, it would have been a long time since a skirmish occurred.”

“sorry.”

Carrot, who was still, also lowered her head.

“I’m sorry too.”

“ha-!”

She let out a huge sigh and sat down in the seat opposite. Then he put his hands on the desk, tilted his head, and looked up at the ceiling.

“You know, the truce line and the demons are sensitive matters. I’m calling you guys because I need to show people that I care about that. If someone asks, just say you heard one thing from the guards and don’t say anything else.”

“yes.”

Carrot was looking at something else while Crank bowed and answered politely. Carrot’s eyes widened, and she raised her head with a smile on her face.

“Ohhh! Celine 1st Guard Captain! Do you look like a boyfriend? A ring on your hand!”

Her hand, which was on the desk, quickly disappeared. Just before disappearing, a shiny metallic light flashed. In addition, Celine’s face flushed slightly.

“···saw?”

Carrot, who jumped up from her seat with both hands on the desk, smiled brightly and jumped.

“Such an auspicious thing! congratulation! Who is it?! who!”

As I closed my ringed hands to hide my flushed face, the door to the interrogation room burst open and a very excited aide came in and shouted.

“Listen and be amazed! It is Mr. Romani!”

“Oooo!!!!”

Carrot, thrilled, raised both arms and screamed. As I went up to a high pitch, the sound of tearing machines mixed in.

“Aide Officer! You keep…!”

“What are you doing when you like it! You want to brag! You want to brag!! I don’t have time to be like this! We have to throw a party right now! After work today, it’s a reception for all the guards!”

“hey! Someone stop me!”

Embarrassed, the captain of the 1st Guard Celine shouted, but unfortunately there was no one on her side at the guard building. Even the lower end guards standing guard in the interrogation room were running amok.

They rushed to the window at the front of the hallway and announced a reception.

“ah! no! It’s still like that…!”

The crank, which had been quiet until then, raised its huge body.

“I will join you too. Let’s go kidnap Romani.”

“Uh heh heh! I’ll buy some time against Ulfa!”

Even the axe-eyed Carrot stood up, and a frightened Celine tried to calm them down.

“Hey, it’s only been a few days! Don’t ruin my relationship!”

In an instant, the members of the building who were rioting stopped moving. When the assistant officer, who suddenly became calm, clapped his hands, they returned to their usual routine as if it had never happened.

In the interrogation room, interrogation about the love affair of the captain of the guard began. Before I knew it, the aide-in-charge, sitting across from the desk and raising his clasped hands, glared at the captain of the guard with a serious face. Behind her, Carrot and Crank stood arm in arm.

“So, how many days has it been?”

“Ha, one month…”

“And that is very important. ···i did it?”

The head of the guard Celine, who was about to answer with her head averted, raised her eyebrows in an instant and let out a scream. Shortly after, the assistant officer and the 1st guard began playing hide and seek in the guard building.

“I did! I did it! With storm power! Ah ha ha ha ha! Ahahahahaha!”

“you! you! I won’t let you go if you get caught! Aww! shut up! at there!”

Crank and Carrot, who had been staring at them from the entrance of the interrogation room as they rushed through the hallway, looked up and looked down at each other.

“Can we go now?”

“huh. I don’t think anything will happen.”

Carrot and Crank, who left the noisy guard building and walked down the street in the gentle spring breeze, decided to stop by the adventurer’s guild for a while before going to the studio and moved on.

“I was thinking of renting out Venus and Lotte.”

“lease?”

“Including you, there are only four automatons. It’s too high firepower for me personally. To be honest, there are limits to what I can do with my abilities, and it’s not like I’m going to have a big party. So I want to entrust the work to the guild.”

Although it varies from city to city, Argon prohibits automatons from earning a fixed income from an unofficial job. The reason is simple. to protect citizens’ jobs.

Of course, it’s a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of

However, due to the nature of the adventurer’s guild’s job, which works in an extreme environment, it is allowed to earn money with automatons.

You can earn money by lending your own automaton to adventurers. However, although the risk of damage or loss is very high,

Carrot, who was walking, laughed ahahahaha.

“I did that when we first met, porter supporter.”

“yes. At that time, I was amazed that such a small doll could carry so much luggage. I saw it for the first time up close.”

Jumping up, Carrot clung to Crank’s leg.

“Thank you for choosing me! Master!”

Crank, who hung a carrot from his leg and began to walk erratically, said cheerfully. The face inside the helmet was smiling.

“Since the year has changed, it has already been six years. Time flies.”

“When running, look straight ahead! But sometimes, look back and catch your breath!”

“like now?”

“yes. Say hello to the you of 6 years ago.”

Citizens passing by the street laughed while watching Crank walking erratically and Carrot hanging from its leg. There were even pranksters clinging to mom or dad’s legs right away.

Crank lowered his head.

“Where am I from 6 years ago? I would love to see you if you have.”

“Hey, are you following me?”

Crank, following Carrot’s hand as he released one arm and pointed to the side of the road, mentally slapped him on the forehead.

On a quiet roadside, the shadows stretched out in the afternoon spring sunlight.

Crank, who had stopped and looked at it, waved awkwardly.

“nice to meet. The me of 6 years ago, you must have had a hard time. Open your chest. Your efforts were not in vain. And do only 300 squats a day. If you overdo it, you will get cramps in your legs.”

“me too! cheer up! Me from 6 years ago! You’ll soon put on your soft skin and make lots of friends! And get a reputation! Rotating music box doll! A doll of a goddess in steam! ha ha ha!”

Next to the shadow of a large man, the shadow of a small girl is waving her arms.

“A hamster with rabies?”

“Eh, I don’t like that. Who the hell put that on? It’s senseless.”

Turning their heads away from the shadows, Crank and Carrot looked at each other and burst into laughter.
