Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~ Chapter 265

Chapter 265

Underwater Gathering

When I was done teasing Vector, I called out to Bolt and Mile as well . I don’t want them to be sulking like Feat .

However, Bolt and Mile seemed to realize that their fur/feathers were not of the same genre as the fluffy ones and didn’t seem to mind . Well, I gave them a good headpatting for being so understanding .

We spent the night on the beach and welcomed the morning .

“So, what do we do today?”

After eating a good breakfast, it was time to decide on today’s schedule .

“”N~?””

(Play! Even though I say that, I have no idea what to play~)

(Let’s search for sea ingredients?)

(We caught lots of fish and seaweed yesterday, though~)

(It’s good to have a big stock! Let’s catch more . )

(Then, how about we go for the fish that are deeper in the sea instead?)

The kids shared their opinions .

“”Fis.h.!.+””

(Yep, yep . It’s better to have more, right~)

(We could look for sh.e.l.lfish, too . )

(Why don’t we search for medicinal plants too then?)

(Get everything!)

(It’s decided then!)

It looks like we’re going to be doing some kind of fis.h.i.+ng today again .

Well, in this world, there are only so many things to do to play, so in the end, we will just end up collecting things .

N~ the ingredients in my Infinite Storage quickly h.o.a.rding . I don’t have to sell much of it because it never goes bad, but it would be better to sell some of it, right?

“”… Can’t?””

“N? I’m fine with it . ”

(Oniichan, you were making a difficult expression, though?)

Apparently, my thinking face needlessly worried the kids .

“Sorry about that~ I’m happy to find new ingredients, but our harvest has been recently far exceeding the amount of ingredients we consume, so I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to sell some of it . ”

(You can’t~! I will eat it so you can’t sell it!)

The first one to react to my words was Vector .

(Indeed~ I have no problems with you using the necessary amount to complete a request, or giving some to your acquaintances, but I would prefer if you didn’t sell the rest~)

(That’s true . They won’t rot in your Infinite Storage, and they won’t become a burden, so I would rather not sell, Aniue . )

(Tak.u.mi Nii, I want you to collect lots of food!)

Feat, Bolt, and Mile were also against selling .

(Oniichan, let’s ama.s.s lots of food to seclude ourselves on a mountain or something!)

“”Ohh~ sounds amusing!””

(Indeed, that sounds fun . )

I see, so living in a place where there are no people like Oswald-san is also a possibility? Well, in that case, I think it will be only for a short period of time, though .

If that happens, I wouldn’t be able to buy things easily, so we would have to save up a lot of stuff . And I don’t want an inconvenient life!

“Okay, I got it . I will not sell even if we ama.s.s a ton of food . A secluded mountain life also sounds good to me . ”

“”(((((Yay~)))))””

“However! Taking every root and branch is out of the question . It would be a problem if we damaged the ecosystem or if the people in need wouldn’t be able to get what they need . ”

“”(((((Okay~)))))””

If my children get serious, I feel they would pick off the entire region, so I could only caution them beforehand .

“Let’s put the mermaid bracelets to use then . ”

Vector was still wearing his, so I put bracelets on the other four .

“Allen, Elena, are you wearing yours?”

“”Is fine! I put it on~!””

Allen and Elena took the bracelets out from their pouches and put them on .

“Alright, let’s swim further into the open sea first then!”

“”(((((Ohh~!)))))””

We entered the sea and aimed for the deep sea .

“This will be the first time you guys enter the sea entirely, right? Will you be all right~?”

They played in the shallows, swam in a lake, and submerged themselves in hot spring, but this will be their first time diving, right?

(Yeah, I’m fine~ It sounds fun~)

(Niisama, I have no problems either . )

(I’m sorry, Aniue . I’m not quite used to swimming itself, so it would be a bit impossible for me to fight . )

(Mumumu~ It’s hard to go into the direction I want to go . )

(I’m good! But I can’t match everyone’s speed~)

Well, there seemed to be no problems in general .

“Bolt, just leave the fighting to me, and get used to swimming slowly . ”

“Allen will fight~”

“Leave it to Elena~”

… Ah~ I don’t feel like it’s going to be my turn anytime soon again~

“Vector, calm down first . You don’t have to flap your limbs so much, just move them slowly . ”

(Like this? Ah, like this, I see! Yeah, seems somewhat okay!)

“Mile, why don’t you hold onto someone . ”

(Got it! I will hold onto you, Feat!)

(Sure~)

Things should be fine like this .

“”Ah!””

Allen and Elena seemed to have found something, and they swam to the bottom of the sea speedily .

(Mu, I can’t keep up with Allen and Elena’s speed in the water . )

(Truly . My, oh my, they are both so lively today~)

With a little more experience, I’m sure Joule and others will be able to swim as well as Allen and Elena .

I’m just getting used to swimming myself, so I have a feeling that Joule and others will be better at it than me in no time .

“Onii~chan, look, look~”

“It’s a pretty flower . ”

“Yes, yes, I’m coming over now~”

Allen and Elena called me to the bottom of the sea, where there was a slowly swaying yellow flower .

“Oh~ it’s a yellow b.u.t.terfly flower . ”

“”Yellow b.u.t.terfly?””

“Allen doesn’t know . ”

“Elena too . Is this medicine?”

Allen and Elena have read a lot of encyclopedias and complete botanical books on medicinal herbs, so they are quite familiar with them . But they don’t know what’s not in the books .

“Erm… yellow b.u.t.terfly flower can be, more or less, called a medicinal plant, I guess? It’s a flower that is mainly used in beauty products . ”

“”Beauty products?””

“They are items used by women . This certainly isn’t described in the books we have . We have not bought any recently, so let’s buy some books when we get at the town . ”

“”Yeah! Let’s buy lots!””

We decided to visit a bookstore when we get to Rubia .

(Hmm, are we taking it?)

“We should, this is something the women of n.o.bility seek, so it might make a good souvenir for Rebecca-san . ”

“”Will make Obaasama happy?””

“Probably . ”

“”Let’s pick lots!””

Hearing that it might make their Obaasama——Rebecca-san happy, Allen and Elena got fired up .

“Just don’t pick too many~”

“”I know!””

… Although I cautioned them, it goes without saying that they collected every root and branch .
