My Daughters Are Regressors

Chapter 182: Mother and Daughter (2)

It's been two weeks since the ball at the Ordor Palace.The past two weeks have been both peaceful and enjoyable.We had a birthday party for Naru and Hina, and we spent time catching insects, doing summer homework with the sisters at home, and having fun playing hide-and-seek with the whole family.

A series of relatively ordinary days.And this everyday life could unexpectedly fix things that were broken.That's how it was with Salome and Cariote's relationship.

Just as Hina and Cecily quickly made up, Salome and Cariote also reconciled at some point.Of course, compared to the sisterly hug between Cecily and Hina, there was still a subtle tension in the relationship between the two women.

"They say beans have components that are good for women. But I don't think eating tofu now will make your chest bigger."

At breakfast time.Cariote said with narrowed eyes, and Salome snorted in response.

"I'm still growing, you know?"

Salome was over twenty years old.It was a bit late to call it a growth period, but Cariote didn't seem to mind as she grabbed something. It was a fruit with strange red skin.

Crack—As Cariote squeezed it in her hand, the fruit split open, revealing seeds packed inside like rubies.

"A pomegranate?""We women of the Barbaroi Plains eat these every day. I think it might have an effect on breast growth.""..."

Salome looked at Cariote's chest and then at the chest of Cariote's younger sister, Dina, who was sitting next to her. Both of their bodies were well-developed in many ways.

Especially Cariote, who moved around a lot and was so active that she could hardly stay still, resulting in her having almost no body fat. Despite this, her chest was large.

'Is it really because of the pomegranate?'

Salome silently took the fruit.In this way, Cariote and Salome were gradually recovering their relationship.Then, what about the children?

Today, as usual, a guest visited the Junk House.It was Naru's friend, Elizabeth.

"Naru! It's been a while! How have you been? I went to the Palchen region in the east! There's a famous pharmacy there, and I learned so many cool things!""Elizabeth!"

Naru and Elizabeth hugged each other tightly.Hina and Cecily, lying on the long bed under the parasol in the garden, looked at Naru and Elizabeth with a 'here we go again' expression.

"Cecily! Hina!"

Elizabeth, catching their gaze, hugged Hina and Cecily once each.Then she asked.

"How was the Ordor Princess's birthday party? I'm curious about what happened! Was it fun? Huh? I wanted to go too! But I'm not a noble, so... sigh..."

Elizabeth was curious about the contents of the social gathering held in the Ordor Kingdom. After all, social gatherings are places where the latest trends spread widely.Elizabeth would have liked to participate, but she had traveled east with her father to study 'medicine' in the Palchen region.Naru quickly explained what had happened in the past days.

"I made friends with Soso and Neva!"

Naru's explanation was very short and simple.And with just this brief explanation, Elizabeth could understand most of what had happened.

'It must have been really fun. And although I don't know who Soso and Neva are, if they're Naru's friends, they're my rivals! Of course, I'm Naru's first and best friend!'

Elizabeth was fired up about rivals she had never even seen.

Swish— Swish—A sudden breeze cooled Elizabeth's heated forehead.When she looked up, the dazzling sunlight pierced her eyes, and something flashed through her mind like lightning.

"Oh, right! Naru, Hina. I brought birthday presents for you! This is popular in the Palchen region, and I bought it for several silver coins!"

Elizabeth pulled out gifts for Naru and Hina from under her puffy skirt. It was a cylindrical object just the right size to fit in Elizabeth's palm.When she opened the lid, a subtle fruity scent wafted out, greatly improving the children's mood.

"Wow, holy shh! Naru knows what this is! It's makeup to put on your face!"

Rub— Rub—Naru applied the cool, white cream to her face.The coolness felt so good that she felt like a princess.Of course, Elizabeth shook her head.

"This is ice cream mixed with peach and milk! It's for eating!""I see!"

Naru laughed and licked her lips and around them.The parts Naru's tongue couldn't reach were licked clean by Molumolu, who had been napping while curled up in a ball in the shade of the nearby parasol.

━Meow.

As a side note, after eating the ice cream, Molumolu acquired the ice-type skill "Freeze Beam". He also gained the ability to lower his body temperature and cool the surrounding temperature in summer.

"Naru, what are we going to play today?"

At Elizabeth's question, Naru looked around.

"Today...,

Buzz— Buzz— Buzz— Buzz—Zzzz— Zzzz—The garden of the Junk House was still in the midst of summer.It was already mid-August.The season was blazing like a midsummer Jack-o'-lantern.

"Today, anything we do will be fun!"

# # #

"Hiiiik...! Why are you shooting water guns at this Sifnoi...? This Sifnoi is confident in water gun fights...!""Holy shh! Run away!"

It seemed that Elizabeth and the children were playing with water guns with Sifnoi in the garden. It looked fun and I wanted to join in, but unfortunately, I didn't have a vacation.

"These are medicinal ingredients purchased from the Palchen region. They say all of these are newly discovered plants after the 'Great Annihilation'. I plan to take them to the lab to investigate their components further. The people of Palchen said they are quite effective in detoxifying poisons."

Ilgast reported his activities diligently.It seemed he had gone to the Palchen region, famous for its medicine production, to investigate and purchase various things.Although it was a long journey to the east, with the help of the Walpurgis mages and multiple dimensional gate transfers, it was quicker than expected.

"Detoxification... I wonder if this will be effective for that child? It doesn't seem like she was poisoned."I asked indifferently, looking at the withered medicinal ingredients.Ilgast's expression was also ambiguous.

"Well, this might fail too. But if we keep trying like this, maybe someday Tywin, who's sleeping in the tank, will regain consciousness, don't you think?""That's true."

In most cases, success is often preceded by an unpleasant number of failures.

Buzz— Buzz— Buzz— Buzz—At that moment, I heard the noisy sound of cicadas in my ears.Usually, we say cicadas 'sing', but if it's this loud, it might be more accurate to say they're 'barking'.This summer was exceptionally lively.Probably the most vibrant of all the summers I've lived through so far?

I wonder what next summer will be like.What will I be doing this time next year?As I was thinking about this, something cold touched my face.

"What's this?""It's ice cream from the Palchen region. Elizabeth brought it as a gift. She's just a child, but she even thought to bring gifts for the adults. What an impressive kid, right?"

It was Brigitte.It was already past dinner time, around the time to go to sleep.

Brigitte had approached me as I was quietly looking out the window and handed me the ice cream.The taste was a bit bland for me, who was used to 21st-century desserts, but that moderate blandness was actually nice.If it's too sweet, your tongue gets tired easily, you know.Brigitte stretched with a long "Nnngh-" sound.She spoke to me in a refreshed voice.

"How many days do we have left?""Just about a month now?""Then, can you give me about two days?"

Two days.For Brigitte to make such a request of me.Does she want to go on a date or something?Seeing my curiosity, Brigitte said.

"Naru wants to go meet a raccoon dog. In the forest near the Ordor Kingdom.""What raccoon dog?""I don't know either. It's completely ridiculous. A raccoon dog!"

Brigitte finally burst out laughing, unable to hold it in.What's so funny about a raccoon dog?Brigitte often had these moments where she would suddenly burst into laughter for reasons I couldn't understand.Anyway, seeing Brigitte laugh was quite a pleasant thing, so I nodded.

"Okay. Two days is fine."

It had been two weeks since we returned from the Ordor Palace.These past two weeks were quite enjoyable, but also slightly bland like this ice cream. It was about time to taste something intense again.

"Should I tell Cecily and Hina too?"

As I was looking around the room, thinking about what luggage we should pack for the forest near the Ordor Kingdom, Brigitte gently tugged at my sleeve.

"How about just the three of us go? You, Naru, and me. I think it might be good sometimes. You can spend time with Hina's side or Cecily's side later."

I see.It's good to spend time all together, but it's also important to balance personal time sometimes. A two-day trip with Naru and her mom.I couldn't imagine what would happen.

"I've already got permission from the others. Everyone wants to have an enjoyable mother-daughter time. I'm just the first one."

I see.And so, the adventure of Naru, Brigitte, and me was decided.Mom, Dad, and daughter.Parents and child.It's a natural combination in a way, but somehow it felt unfamiliar.How interesting.

There was a large forest near the Ordor Kingdom.How large? Just in terms of area, it was about a fifth of the size of the Ordor Kingdom.It was so large and rich in vegetation that it was called the 'Great Forest'.The trees were indeed densely packed.Lots of insects and animals like rabbits too.Especially mosquitoes.

Wheeee—

"There are so many mosquitoes.""Naru packed the mosquito repellent I got from Elizabeth! There are so many mosquitoes in the Great Forest! Naru was attacked by mosquitoes even in winter!"

Naru growled softly as she took out the mosquito repellent she had packed until her bag was bulging. It seemed that even Naru, who I thought loved all creatures in the world, disliked mosquitoes.Mosquitoes are understandable.I don't like them either.

Moreover, the mosquitoes in the Great Forest were huge.How can mosquitoes be the size of giant hornets?Are they giant mosquitoes?

Anyway.We arrived at the Great Forest quickly thanks to my 《Wall Crossing》 skill.Now, all we had to do was enjoy camping in the forest with happy hearts.Actually, that's a lie.

"Naru, what does the raccoon dog you're looking for look like?"

Brigitte asked Naru.Naru seemed to think deeply, going "Hmm─hmm─", then suddenly raised both hands high and shouted.

"The raccoon dog looks like a raccoon dog! It's super big! A really big raccoon dog! It walks on four legs, but sometimes stands on two!"

An incredibly large raccoon dog.How big could it be?As I was wondering, Naru added an explanation.

"It's as big as an elephant!"

That's really huge.Can a raccoon dog even grow as big as an elephant?Is Naru mistaking some other creature for a raccoon dog?Her story was raising all sorts of question marks in my mind.

"Hm? Doesn't this area look a bit strange?"

Just then, Brigitte seemed to have noticed something and pointed at the ground with her staff. Colorful wildflowers were growing on the ground.What could be unusual about it?Isn't it just normal forest terrain?

"Look closely."

As I was feeling quite puzzled, Brigitte used her staff to part the wildflowers. Thanks to this, I was able to notice that the ground where the wildflowers were growing was slightly sunken.The shape looked like an animal's paw print.The circumference of the paw print was about 1m.

"What kind of animal leaves footprints this big?"

At my amazement, Naru shouted, as if she had been waiting for this moment.

"A raccoon dog!"
