The town of Lease is a prosperous town with a reasonable size.
High walls are enclosing the town, and there are gates in the south and north. A field spreads around the town, and the houses are visible even from outside the gate.
Dirkhert and others riding the carriage are lined up in a queue that stretches far out from the gate. An examination is necessary to enter the town.
「The carriage is not moving at all. Can I go out and play?」
Dirkhert suddenly says because thirty minutes have already passed and they didn’t move up at all. Because there’s nothing to do inside the carriage, he must be very bored.
「Let’s see…… Only if you promise that you won’t separate from the carriage」
It’s a reward for being so obedient until now. When Meluerina says so,「Yatta!」Dirkhert joyfully jumps from the carriage.
「Brother-in-law-sama, I leave it to you」
「I thought so」
Just as one thought, it’s not possible to let Dirkhert play alone. An order immediately fell on Volsung.
Volsung who followed after Dirkhert down from the carriage immediately started searching for the little Maou-sama.
Then, he’s doing something with a wooden stick at a place slightly away from the carriage.
「Guriguri, guriguri, gu~riguri」
He stuck the wooden stick into the ground, turning it round and round. He’s apparently digging a hole.
This is a road with many people going back and forth yet he opened a hole…… We have to close it properly afterwards, or it could get dangerous. Volsung watches over the playing Dirkhert with a wry smile.
Since a while ago,「It’s an Elf, my first time seeing one……」「Why is Elf-sama in a place like this?」「To think that a day I could see Elf-sama would arrive before I pass away…… I’m grateful, I’m grateful」voices has been reaching Volsung’s sharp ears, but he looked up at the sky pretending not to notice.
「Yosh, next is~……」
It seems he finished digging the hole. Just what is he planning to do next…… While attentively watching over Dirkhert, a magic circle suddenly risen above the hole. Then, water started spurting out of the hole.
Volsung who saw that suddenly stiffened.
The hole dug up in the soft soil is just right to accumulate water. And then, water. Speaking of plays connected to those two things, there’s nothing besides playing in the mud.
If he plays in mud in a place like this, Meluerina will definitely get angry.
「Wait, Dirk-sama, please wait a moment……!」
His panicked call was already too late. Dirkhert stuck his both hands in the hole full of water and stirred it around. The mud splashed on his arms, face, and clothes. He became quite dirty.
「N? Vol wants to play too?」
Saying that, he pushed his muddy hands forward. Wrong. That’s not the case.
「Melu will get angry if she sees you covered in mud like that」
「But, Melu said it’s okay to playmon」
That’s true, that’s true, but……! Who would have thought you would play in the mud on the road like this.
「Look, Dirk-sama. The hole you opened in the middle of the road is troubling the people and carriages passing through. Shall we cover it?」
「I see~ You are right」
Saying that, petapeta he covers the hole with soil. He becomes muddy again by doing that, but it’s all the same once he becomes dirty. But, he must not get more dirty than that.
「Dirk-sama, shall we look for insects along the road?」
When Volsung skillfully induces Dirkhert,「Insect-sans search~!」he joyfully says and starts searching for insects in the bushes and grass along the road.
But, in the end, they got scolded by Meluerina, and it goes without saying that Dirkhert had to change clothes inside the carriage.
