Birthday Party
“Allen, Elena, Happy Birthday!”
“”Uniyu?””
After a while in the kitchen occasionally echoing with screams, the feast had been successfully finished and Allen and Elena’s birthday party started .
However, Allen and Elena could only tilt their heads to the side after hearing the words of celebration . They had experienced Rebecca-san’s celebration before, so they should have a notion of what “birthday” is .
“Today is your birthday Allen, Elena . It’s the day you two had been born on . ”
“Allen’s~?”
“Elena’s~?
“Yeah . Therefore, today is the day you receive ‘congratulations’ . ”
“”N, you see… thank you?””
“Yup, that’s correct . ”
“”Ehehe~””
When I explained what birthday is, the two spoke up after thinking very hard for a while .
“Allen, Elena, let’s keep getting along, okay?”
“”Yea!””
Allen and Elena being born and me being able to meet them was my fortune .
Well, I would like to have a few words with Water God-sama who escaped from his responsibilities, but… thinking that I was able to meet the twins because of that makes me feel quite complicated .
“Allen-kun, Elena-chan, Happy Birthday . ”
“Allen-chan, Elena-chan, you are so cute~”
“”Happy Birthday, you two . ””
“”Thank you~””
The members of the Ruven family, Matthias-san, Rebecca-san, Velio-san, and Amelia-san wished the children Happy Birthday .
“Here, this is my present to you . ”
“”Thank you, Obaasama~””
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMoreover, Rebecca-san was apparently able to prepare a present on the very day . While surprised about whether she prepared it in such a short time, she told me that she had prepared it a long time ago .
I was told… that although Allen and Elena’s birthday wasn’t ascertained, Rebecca-san was sure since her birthday that they must have their birthday somewhere near the time I met them for the first time, so she had prepared beforehand . As expected of her .
……… I did not think of preparing a present in advance .
“Allen-kun, Elena-san, Happy Birthday . ”
“”Happy Birthday, Allen-kun, Elena-chan . ””
“”How pretty~””
I thought it should be fine with just us congratulating them, so I did not consider inviting anyone . But, Rebecca-san was tactful and invited those we get along with . Moreover, even though it was sudden, many people gathered .
From the Risner family, Cedric-san, Isaac-san, Theodore-kun, and Latis-kun came . Theodore-kun and Latis-kun presented them with a bouquet and Allen and Elena delightfully accepted .
By the way, when I inquired from Cedric-san about the jelly and mayonnaise in the spare time, he told me with a grin “You told me you don’t mind if it spreads, no?”
Yep, I did say that . I did, but also obtaining profit from it was unexpected . Well, one would normally welcome the extra income, but in my case, the surprise was bigger .
“Allen-kun, Elena-chan, Happy Birthday . ”
“Congratulations . How old are you guys now?”
“”Fiv… six~””
Larry-san and Helena-san from the McPherson family also came .
When asked about their age, Allen and Elena were about to reply five as they usually do, but they corrected themselves and said six . Still, they were perfectly in sync as usual .
“Allen, Elena, congratulations . ”
“Happy Birthday . ”
“Congrats~”
“”Thank you~””
“Erm… everyone, thank you very much for coming . ”
For some reason, Al-sama, Grace-sama, and Lionel-sama came too .
They have, for some mysterious reason, came to join us, but… I must not mind it, so I said my thanks without crumbling .
I don’t think Rebecca-san had an invitation written for the royalty too . Then, did they perhaps overhear from somewhere and decided to come?
Yep, it’s believable when you take these people into consideration .
“Still, everything here looks so delicious! Oh~ how glad I am we had our duties switched . Right, Isaac?”
“Wald-sama, you should congratulate the kids first, right?”
“Wald Niisan…”
“Grunwald, I know that the food must be delicious, but don’t overdo it with your gluttony . ”
“Indeed . Calm down a bit . ”
Wald-sama and Isaac-san naturally came for the family gathering, but Najack-sama, Kevin-sama, and Claudio-sama also came .
From what I understood, Wald-sama and Isaac-san who were on duty received a report about Allen and Elena’s birthday and the story had reached Al-sama and Grace-sama’s ears . The two are Royal Guards, after all .
Nevertheless… Wald-sama’s pace is stable as usual~ Well, that’s what makes him Wald-sama, though .
“Well, you are right . Allen, Elena, congratulations . ”
Yep, he indeed is Wald-sama .
“And so, you guys are also starving, right?”
“”Yea, starving~””
… It’s so like him, but I would like him to pay more attention to his words .
“”Onii~chan . ””
“Food~”
“Can we eat~?”
“Sure . However, Allen, Elena… it’s ‘I am hungry’ you know?”
“I am . ”
“Hungry~”
“All right! Then, eat up a lot . Everyone too, don’t hold back and enjoy the food . ”
Once the meal started, everyone ate in a trance .
“Takumi, all of them are great! Especially this! This is super good! Rather, you were hiding so many dishes I have yet to eat!!”
What Wald-sama was highly praising was deep-fried Evil Viper meat .
“”Onii~chan, Onii~chan . ””
“What is it?”
“”Is this big snake~?””
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Correct! So you guys could tell~”
Ohh~ it appears that Allen and Elena could recognize the deep-fried Evil Viper .
“Ngu!? W, wait a moment! Big snake, you say!? I have a bad feeling about this… is this meat perhaps…”
“Hahaha~ it’s a celebration so I have splurged!”
Wald-sama guessed the origins of the meat too as his face cramped .
Others who knew that I defeated Evil Viper before were also staring at the deep-fried meat .
Among the people who came today, only the McPherson couple, Theodore-kun, and Latis-kun were making curious faces .
“Takumi, what other high-class ingredients have you used today!? Explain yourself at once! Alright?”
“Explain myself, you say…”
“Then, confess . No, spit it out . ”
“It’s getting worse!? Rather, I did not commit any crime, right!?”
“Don’t mind it and spit it out!”
“You are so heartless~ But, for the high-class ingredients, I have used only truffle, Snowbelow mushrooms, and Majesta fruit, you know?”
It’s abnormal mentioning these three ingredients in one sentence, but Wald-sama has eaten all of them before . Well, I won’t mention that now .
After a while, Wald-sama spoke to me again .
“Ah~… also, Takumi . I have been curious about this since a while ago, but…”
“N? What is it, Wald-sama?”
“That green pipsqueak wasn’t with you the last time, right? Did you get more?”
Wald-sama questioned while directing his gaze at Mile .
Joule and other Contracted Beasts are also participating in this birthday party . It’s Allen and Elena’s birthday, so Joule and others should participate too, Rebecca-san gave her permission .
“That’s a Forest Rat, Mile . I contracted her after coming to the Capital . ”
“As I thought . Well, let’s leave it at that . But, why are our people monopolizing your Contracted Beasts?”
As Wald-sama said, Rebecca-san was hugging Feat, Matthias-san was shrewdly holding Joule up in his arms . Additionally, Bolt was standing on Velio-san’s shoulder, while Mile was sitting on Amelia-san’s shoulder . At the feet of the Ruven family members, Vector was absentmindedly eating his food .
Therefore, the reason Rebecca-san permitted Joule and others to participate is that she has yet to enjoy them thoroughly, is what I think .
“It’s not like my children dislike it, so isn’t it just fine for today?”
“Well, if you say so . ”
After this, the peaceful party continued .
