Chapter 10

「Why are brats in here!」

A loud voice echoes around the Guild.

That voice gathers the attention of the other people around.

「They are my company, is there a problem?」

「This is not a place for brats to play!」

「No… they are obediently behaving, right? I don’t think they are being a nuisance to you, but?」

「There are nuisance just by being here!」

「Just by being here, you say…… give me a break…」

This is the type of person who would pick up a fight no matter what I say. I’m certain my words won’t connect with him.

I would like to settle this peacefully, but…… now then, how to deal with this……

I wanted to sigh, but I forcibly suppressed it. The opponent seems to be the type that would get even more agitated by it.

Nevertheless, to think that there would actually be person who would pick a quarrel for no reason…… I thought this would happen only in novels.

「Oi! Don’t ignore me!」

「No, I told you…」

「Aan!? Are you defying me right now?」

The opponent suddenly extends his hand in order to grab me by the collar without a thought.

Ah, it’s no use no matter what I say. Talking is impossible.

Now then…… what to do……

While thinking so, the hand that was grabbing to seize me was suddenly repelled.

「Ah…」

When I let the voice, it was already too late.

Allen and Elena kicked the bald adventurer’s hand away. Then, they proceed to kick him in the abdomen just like that.

The adventurer let’s out『Gu!』a suffering groan while his upper body bent. He then fell back right on his backside.

「Uwa! Stop, stop! Allen, Elena. Wait!」

I shout in panic.

I stop Allen and Elena a second before they can both land ax kick on the collapsed adventurer’s head.

The kicks that were going to land directly on his head just barely swept beside him.

That was dangerous… seriously dangerous…

He would definitely die if those ax kicks landed.

His upper body fall down with a thud and he stopped moving. He must have already fainted after suffering the hit to his abdomen.

A silence drifts in the Guild which was noisy just a minute ago.

The adventurers and the Guild staff stiffened in shock.

Even if they are used to fighting, witnessing small children KO’ing a grown man must have been really surprising.

Well then…… what do I do now?

「Ou. Excuse me……… N? What?」

A person walks into the guild and looks around the frozen stiff guild dumbfoundedly.

「What, what? Did something happen?」

A familiar voice. If I’m not mistaken, it should be one of the west gate Knight-samas.

He is not wearing armor today, but a dark blue knight uniform.

Thanks to him, the stopped time in the Guild started moving again.

First of all, I turn to the Guild staff behind the counter and timidly ask.

「Ah~…… Is there a punishment in a case like this?」

I can’t leave without asking that, right?

There was no punishment.

This time, we were not at fault because the other party one-sidedly picked a quarrel with us and we only defended ourselves.

I’m glad…

The fallen adventurer was dragged to the guild’s sick bay by other adventures on the guild staff instructions, he started moving again normally after a while.

「This~ Tak.u.mi-san…」

「Yes?」

「See…… the children……」

「He?」

Luna-san reservedly calls out to me. Prompted by those words, I turn around to look at Allen and Ellen…… they were crying.

There were shedding tears without a voice.

「Waa!? Why are you crying!?」

I rush up to the two children in panic and crouch to match their line of sight.

「Injuries… none, right? What’s wrong?」

「…… Don’t… leave us……」

They cling to me with a fragile voice.
