Three days later. My family and I were to leave for Silford territory.

　They are planning to stay in Silford territory for three to five days.

　Well, it's only four days to Silford territory, and the entire schedule won't take two weeks. Compared to Kagura's tough journey of two weeks one way, it's an uneventful journey.

　I guess I've gotten used to this world, too, as far as thinking a four-day one-way trip is nothing to sneeze at.

　Since the early hours of the morning, the courtyard is being loaded with our luggage.

　I'm not sure if they are troubled by the fact that there are things missing during the trip or after arriving at the destination, but everyone seems to be checking their luggage carefully.

　By the way, the servants who will be accompanying me on this trip are Meena and Gosha Lowe.

　Aside from Rowe-san, who takes care of the horses and guides us along the way, the maid is Meena's "I want to go see the ocean! The choice was made out of respect for the hope that

　The maids are on vacation while we're gone. Sarla will spend a relaxing time at a house in the village, and Meru will also be staying there and taking care of the house. Bartolo, the cook, has been praised for his cooking skills, and he's going to ladder up to the village bastards' houses.

　Is it just me, or do the servants seem much more fun than us going on some kind of trip?

　Thinking about that, I watched Meena and the others busily moving around from the doorway.

''Huh, you're late.

　Sister Elinora, sitting next to me, lets out a sigh.

　It's always quicker to get the kids ready.

　Even if brother Silvio had some spare time, he could manage it as long as he had books. If I had to say, I was even having trouble choosing which books to bring with me.

　Elinora's sister only had her own practice tools. I had to have Erna's mother add to my outfit because I had too few clothes to bring.

　It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

　Of course, I won't be using it in front of everyone, but I can easily make up for a small shortage of things, even if I'm on the road.

　Even if you're missing one plate or fork, or a sock or shirt, you can sneak out with spatial magic and use a strategy that was actually there. Well, I don't need to use it since I can easily create a plate or fork with earth magic if it's just a plate or a fork.

''It's been a while since I've been on a trip, hasn't it?''

　As I was sitting there with a relaxed expression on my face, Brother Silvio, sitting next to me, said with a really happy smile.

You haven't been out of the village lately, have you?

　For Brother Silvio, he may be happy to be out of the village for the first time in a while. But from my point of view, I'm more envious of Brother Silvio's condition.

　Recently, I was forced to convene in the royal capital or go sightseeing in Kagura.

　But just as soon as that was over, this time I traveled to make an appeal around to deepen my friendship with the Silford family.

　I don't know if this is what I wanted to do about Kagura, but I think I've been going out too much lately because I'm the one who wants to relax in the village.

　I wouldn't have any complaints if it was a trip by transfer. It's not hard work in an instant.

I'm sure you're not the only one who's had to leave the village before, but when was the last time Silvio left the village?

'Let's see, about six months ago?　My dad and I once showed up at a nobleman's social gathering once.

'Heh, I didn't know there was such a thing,'

　At brother Silvio's words, my sister Elinora and I let out a similarly dumbfounded voice.

　It's obvious from the sound of her voice that neither she nor her sister Elinora have the slightest interest in it.

You should both show a little more interest. It's not as far away as the royal capital, so you need to show up at the social gathering as well--

"All right. I'll think about it.

　Brother Silvio started to say something petty, so for now, me and sister Elinora will reply to him.

　Of course we only think about it, but we don't act on it.

　As if our thoughts were transparent, Silvio brother let out a sigh as if he had given up.

　That kind of thing is the eldest son's job as the next lord.

　I heard that in other noble families, there are disputes over who should be the lord, but this is not an issue in our house. After all, the eldest daughter and the second son have no intention of doing so.

　So we have been talking to them in this way for a while. Finally, they were ready to go.

　Bartolo, who was carrying our luggage, said, "All right!　That's it! He made a sunny voice.

　Sister Elinora, who smelled the prospect of departure, stood up as if she had been waiting for it.

'Al, Elinora, Silvio. We're ready to leave, let's go!

　At the same time, Father Nord calls out to me.

　Brother Silvio was next, and finally I stood up sluggishly as if I were lifting a heavy weight.

　Elinora's sister hurriedly walks to the carriage, followed by me as if I were tottering along.

　Then Brother Silvio, who was behind me, pushed me back as if he were working on me. I'm somehow glad of that silent kindness.

　Huh, I really wanted to spend a little more time in the village of Koliat.

''Erinora-sama, Alfreet-sama, Silvio-sama, have you forgotten anything?　If you want to go back to the mansion to get it, now's the last time, right?

　As we approached the carriage, Meena, the maid, asked us.

　Sister Elinora, who was walking in the lead, says, "No! He said bravely, and was the first to get into the carriage.

'It's all right. I've made sure of it.

I'll be fine, too.

　Me and brother Silvio responded properly and slowly walked into the carriage.

　Hmm, after all, since we're going on a trip, we have to enjoy the scenery.

　As I got into the carriage, I sat down on the window seat where the sunshine was shining through. It's a little scary to see Elinora's sister on the other side of the carriage, but I won't mind.

　As I sat down by the window, Brother Silvio sat down next to me. Next to sister Elinora and next to me. I guess I don't need to compare which one is more peaceful.

　However, the inside of the carriage is quite spacious, perhaps because of the way the nobles move around. It's not unusual for people to change their seats while moving, so this is a slight resistance.

　As I was gazing at the scenery absentmindedly through the sunshine window, I saw Nord's father and Erna's mother all coming from the front door.

'Erna, have you forgotten anything?'

Yeah, I'm fine. That's all right. You never forget a thing, Nord.

I'll be fine, too.

　Perhaps because it was summer, Mother Erna was wearing a cool-looking dress and a cardigan. She even wore a straw hat to protect herself from the sun.

　She is over thirty years old, but she has a clean and youthful look that belies her age. She is still the same youthful mother.

　Nordo's father wore a white cutter shirt and long blue pants. His clothes are simple, but he looks very clean and makes us feel refreshed just by looking at him.

　They are two people who look picturesque just by walking side by side.

　It's probably because they don't have a troublesome party like they did in King's Landing. Elna's mother also looks really radiant.

　She doesn't deliberately show any resistance to forgetting her dress like she did last time.

　She's just happy to be able to go on a trip with her husband, Nord, and his family.

　When they come to the carriage, Nord gets in first, turns around and extends his hand.

　Mother Erna placed her own hand on top of Nord's, and she was escorted gracefully into the carriage.

　She's a far cry from her older sister, who jumped into the carriage in a flash.

　Normally, Mother Erna has a rather gruff personality, but she still has the grace and manners of a nobleman. Yes, her movements are so ladylike that I was reminded of that.

　And the casual movements of the Nordic father are also very gentlemanly.

　When brother Silvio and I exclaimed in admiration, Father Nord looked embarrassed and Mother Erna showed a proud expression.

　It's very disappointing that sister Elinora, who has low girl power, isn't too interested, but it can't be helped.

　She was a little disappointed, but she pulled herself together and sat down next to her sister with her Nord Dad.

''Here you are!　We're ready to go!

Mr. Rowe, will you be ready to go?

　Finally, as Meena came in, Father Nord raised his voice.

　Then there is a pissing sound of a whip swinging from the guru's seat, and the carriage slowly starts to move forward.

　Saara and Mel, the maids, and Bartolo, the servant, wave their hands to see it off.

'Meena, don't get carried away just because it's a journey. Behave in a manner befitting a maid of the Surolet family, okay?

'I would appreciate it if you wouldn't bother Master Nord and the others.

I'll take care of it!　I'll do the work of a maid of the House of Sloletto in a way that will put me to shame!

I'm nervous.

Yeah.

Why?

　We can't help but laugh when we hear the maids' smiling exchanges.

　Meena is supposed to be more senior than Saara, but she's like a junior.

　Well, Meena is somewhat unreliable, but she's still an attentive enough maid. I'm sure she won't do anything strange when she arrives at the Silford house.......maybe.

'Take care of yourself and go, boy!　Go enjoy the seafood!

You, Bartolo, enjoy your vacation!

'Oh!　I'll be waiting for you to bring me a souvenir!

　While each of them are calling out to each other like that, the carriage is advancing in front of the gate of the mansion.

　This is the only way Bartolo and the others who were running alongside us could see them off.

　We keep waving our hands until Bartolo and his friends are out of sight.

　Our house is getting smaller and smaller, and the Bartolo's that were there to see us off are nowhere to be seen.

　This is the first time I've traveled with my whole family. What kind of trip will it be?

　But we'll have Elinora's sister there and we'll be practicing, right?　If possible, I'd like to refrain from just traveling through practice.

　I kept looking out the window as if to escape reality.
