Chapter 09 – Growth of the girls

Four years had passed since the girls left for the royal capital.

The girls, who were so cute when we met, were now 18 years old. It was early, but it was the age to think about marriage.

I was also 35 years old. A middle-aged man.

That was why――.

“What are you talking about? You’re still young. Even you had defeated the hordes of the demonic wolf who had come to attack this village before this.”

The tavern master blew his cigar and told amazed.

“It looks like you’re still at twenties.”

“Well, I’ve been training as a guardian for a long time. ――However, if I fight Elsa now, I’m likely to lose.”

“Elsa has become an S-rank adventurer now huh.”

“Eee. Somehow she has managed to win the sword god festival held in the royal capital. With her ability, it seemed that she was now a Knight Commander and served as a Royal Guardian for the Princess.”

“Isn’t it a big success. She was a Knight Commander and also a Royal Guardian of the Princess…… That little girl who was following sticking behind you had become such a person.”

Master looked far away with nostalgic sight. Smoked the cigar. was he seeing Elsa still as a child?

After leaving for the royal capital, Elsa walked the path of an adventurer.

She was able to successfully complete her mission, promoted her adventurer rank, and finally be promoted to the S-rank adventurer.

It was said――she was the fastest in history who had reached S-rank at the royal capital.

After Elsa became a long-awaited S-rank adventurer, in the letter she sent to me, she added with many words of joy.

『Before I came to the royal capital, I couldn’t stand. I wonder if there’s an adventurer who can shower me with hits like a single hit of chichiue. But that ended with melancholy. Since I came to the royal capital, I haven’t met anyone who is comparable to chichiue’s ability. Apparently the person closest to me was the strongest.』

Even though I retired, I still a former A-rank adventurer.

For that time being, I was called as the next S-rank adventurer from people around.

Then, Elsa was trained by me.

Her sword’s ability was certain.

“Speaking of which, Anna was working hard in the Adventurer’s Guild, right?”

“Yeah. The other day, I was sent a letter saying she was promoted to her long-dreamed guild master. It seems she has to be the youngest guild master.”

“It’s no wonder that’s right. She does have that much talent. So she can be a guild master of course.”

Master who successfully running his tavern was by buying the help from Anna’s talent.

Anna entered the Adventurer’s Guild as a staff member after went to the Royal Capital.

It seemed that it was an exam with high-level difficulty, but it was easy for her to break it through due to her skill. It said that she was able to get the job offer on the spot by demonstrating her speech in the interview.

After working as a guild staff, she worked as a receptionist, but by utilizing her talent, she quickly became prominent.

And during this time, she finally became a Guild Master. It seemed unusual to be a guild master at the age of eighteen.

“About the current Meryl… I don’t need to hear it, because, she came back to the village once every two weeks.”

“haha……”

I laughed unintentionally.

Meryl came back in this village yesterday. Her purpose was to meet me of course.

“I will die of loneliness if I cannot see papa for a month,” she said, and returned home about once every two weeks.

Meryl entered the royal capital’s magic school. Her grades always to be on top.

As far as Anna could tell, she seemed to be skipping the class as usual. However, it seemed that she was developing many new kinds of magic.

Her magic syntax construction was simpler and more powerful, the development of magical drugs, and the development of magical devices to make magic available to the general public. The development of magic was so contrasted that it could be divided before and after Meryl.

It seemed that people around praise her as a Wise.

All the girls were doing their best on their own path.

“Oi. Kaizer. The peddler has been entrusted with the letters of your daughters.――Here. Read it properly and reply.”

Master then sent me the letters he received from a peddler who came to the store. There were letters from three daughters.

When I received the letters, I opened it and started reading.

There was their recent news, and also it was spelled out in every letter, that they wanted to live together with me again in the royal capital.

“You’ve been sent love calls all the time, right?”

Master said as he peeked into my letter.

“Isn’t it a good time, Kaizer. Why don’t you go to the royal capital?”

“Eh?”

“It’s about the time when your daughters’ lives were settled down and I also think it’s the time you have to afford it. If you live in the royal capital, your daughters will be happy too.”

“But the village…”

“Don’t worry. Thanks to your training to those brats, we have enough village guardians, and the field has a lightning magic fence. Leave the house to me. I will take care of it while you live in the royal capital. You can come back when you want.”

“………”

“I know it, about you really wanted to go to the royal capital, but you couldn’t because of this village… Geez, You have a damn strong sense of duty. You just have to live your life the way you want to.”

Master suddenly smiled.

“Your beloved daughters are so enthusiastic to invite you. As a father, how should you respond?”

“Master…”

I stared at the letter for a while and then nodded small.

――Yosh. I decided.

“I got it. I will go to the royal capital again.”
