After a while grandfather came dragging someone.
Huh… Is that okay?
He's holding his collar, so his neck…
The hair color of the person who's coming is black.
But… Who?
Black means he's from the eastern country.
His face is, in short, handsome.
In a sense I've seen many kinds of good-looking men, so there's no mistake.
But that ikemen has a sulky expression.
Well, he is being dragged~.
"Here, I'll take you with us, get on the carriage."
After Grandfather said so he threw the black haired ikemen inside the carriage.
Grandfather, explanation, explanation.
… There's no explanation!
Carriage began to move as soon as grandfather threw the black haired ikemen inside.
A complicated atmosphere filled the carriage.
No good, I can't stand this air.
I must make a move.
"Ah, umm, my name is Lillina. And you are…"
The black haired ikemen made a strange face when I asked.
Eh? Why are you looking at me as if I'm a pitiful child?
"I know, I, have told you name before."
"Ah, that voice and manner of speech… Sasuke-san?"
The unique way of talking is certainly that of Sasuke of ninja I've met before.
I haven't seen his face under the mask, but it certainly could look like this.
But this face resembles someone.
… Okay! I can't remember.
The former black haired ikemen, Sasuke-san, still has sullen expression.
Was it that unpleasant being dragged by grandfather?
"Umm, why was Sasuke-san here?"
"… Really, why? I, want to hear. Your, grandfather, who is he?"
I'm troubled if you ask me who grandfather is.
Because even I don't have the whole picture of grandfather's activities in various places.
Then grandmother spoke to Sasuke-san.
"Did you say you're Sasuke-san? Did Hanzou-san order you to follow us?"
"Not particularly. Hanzou, didn't say. Came, on my own."
Humph, Sasuke-san came at his own discretion.
But I guess Hanzou-san knew and let him.
Because he's the former head.
This time, Allen-kun asked Sasuke-san.
"Then, why did you come after us?"
"Hey, are you ignoring me?!"
Why doesn't he react to Allen-kun's question at all.
He doesn't even try.
Ah~~, the atmosphere inside the carriage is the worst.
Afterwards, Sasuke-san remained silent and kept his eyes closed.
It doesn't seem he's asleep, but he had an aura of not wanting to be disturbed.
Outside, the sun is setting.
It seems we'll have a break around here.
Ordinary noble would probably stay in an inn in a previous village rather than sleep outdoors, but we don't particularly mind.
With the two who wander around the world (grandfather & grandmother), the two who've been hunting demons in the territory from a young age (me & Sana), the two who've lived vigorously as commoners (Allen-kun & Ange-sama), and then Sasuke-san of ninja, there's no need to stay in an inn.
Used to it, we began preparing a camp.
Grandfather and Allen-kun caught a bird. A rather large one.
Grandmother and Sana are preparing a soup.
I and Ange-sama, vigilant of our surrounding, are setting up a tent.
By the way, women will sleep in the carriage, men in the tent.
Sasuke-san, who I've thought wouldn't do anything, collected firewood, and brought plenty of fruits.
Nice going~, ninja.
We finished our preparations just like that, and while we were eating our meal grandfather started talking.
"Sorry for suddenly throwing you into the carriage. Back then, I thought I could explain it later. Ah, no, I'm honestly sorry. Leafia, please stop glaring at me."
Grandfather is frightened by grandmother's gaze.
Just how scary is grandmother?
"Ahem. This ninja, Sasuke, is Hanzou's disciple. Hanzou asked me to take him with me when he was leaving. It seemed that he was keeping some distance from us, but since he was following us, I forced him into the carriage."
After all, why did Sasuke come with us?
It's not the orders of Hanzou-san, is it?
"Everyone is curious about Sasuke. Hey, explain the reason yourself."
Grandfather urged Sasuke-san to talk.
"… It's, interesting."
Eh?
It's interesting? What is?
I waited for his next words, but Sasuke-san hasn't spoken any more.
