85 – Preparing to move
“I can’t believe that babies were born this year. Do all beastman babies grow this fast?”
“No. I guess it’s because it was right after I received the blessing. “As each generation passes, the growth rate will also stabilize.”
“Aha. So then, this is Mahesar’s own consideration? “You are different from Trius in many ways.”
As I headed toward the corner of the tent, I could hear the conversations of the sitters, including Amula.
Unlike the babies we looked after who burst into tears in shock at Shizu’s death, the babies the babysitters looked after were extremely peaceful, as if they were being held in their mother’s arms.
Perhaps it is because of her long lifespan that her childcare experience is also unique?
I let out a small exclamation and joined their conversation.
“Ask me. “How are the babies doing?”
“Ah, candidate! Come and sit here. “I have something to report.”
I followed Amula’s recommendation and sat down on the soft fur.
When I took a seat and indicated that I would listen, Amula showed me the baby she was holding and spoke softly.
“There are a few babies with poor nutrition, but as you can see, most of the babies are healthy. “It seems like they were born stronger than other beastmen because they inherited the blessings of the wild.”
“Hmm. In other words, only the strong babies survived.”
“Yes. It’s a really sad story, but it’s just as the candidate said. Still, there will be no more sacrifices, so let’s think brightly.”
Even if we shed tears at the heartbreaking sacrifice, let us not stop and look forward.
She swallowed the bitterness at Aemula’s words and nodded.
For the sake of the babies that will be born in the future, adults have to be busy now.
If that were the case, there would be no reason to delay the plan, let alone time.
I looked around at the babies and started talking about the centaur migration plan.
“Then how long will it take before we can leave?”
“Yes? “You mean departure?”
“I plan to move the centaurs to Qingqing Yingyue. “As soon as possible, before it gets colder than it is now.”
“Oh my. “All the residents here?”
“Okay. “Everyone, no one left out.”
I decided to move the centaurs to Qingqing Yingyue, but if the babies couldn’t survive the trip, I had to postpone the plan.
It may seem okay at first glance, but what are the opinions of parenting experts?
As I was patting the baby next to me and waiting for an answer, Aemulla, who had been thinking for a moment, smiled and opened her mouth.
“hehehe. Are you saying she’s going to sit right next to you and take care of you? That’s a Druid-like choice. “I’m a little jealous because it seems like only the beast people care about me?”
“Hey. “Elves will take care of themselves if you leave them alone.”
“Yes, yes, of course. “We didn’t do anything to be liked by the candidate, right?”
“Hmm.”
Of course it is. You guys know that too, right?
“First of all, to answer your question, it’s okay to leave in just a few days. This is possible because babies grow so quickly.”
“Do they grow that fast?”
“Yes. The babies were born this spring and are already trying to stand on their own two feet. It is said that centaur babies can run when they are one month old, and it seems that this characteristic is also present in blessed babies. This is because it is right after receiving the blessing, and they say it will gradually stabilize as generations pass.”
“Oh. “That’s good.”
It is said that babies grow much faster than other races.
It was difficult to make a hasty conclusion, but it was not a bad phenomenon in the current situation.
Also, the lifespan of centaurs is relatively long, so even if it lasts just one generation, it would last for quite a long time.
Babies grow faster than other races and are born over a long generation.
It seemed that the Demon Race and the Green Race were destined to lead the revival as the youngest races of the Beast Race.
“Then get ready as quickly as possible. “You’d better hurry, because the human adventurers are targeting the centaurs.”
“Yes, I understand. As parents get used to raising children, they will naturally be ready. “We will take care of the training, so it won’t take as long as you think.”
“Thank you. “It’s really reliable.”
Anyway, it seemed like it would be okay to put the centaur migration plan into action.
In that case, I will also have to act hard so as not to lose to the nannies.
After giving general instructions, I stood up and stretched.
“Then, if you have a sick baby, show it to Kaa. If it’s a problem that can be solved with healing magic, it’ll be fine. “If you need my help, ask Shizu to come see you.”
“Yes. I will do that. “Where are you going, candidate?”
“I’ll have to go around and refine my plan.”
“hehehe. You’re saying you’ll leave the inside work to the sluts and do the outside work yourself? Really, getting older is so sweet that it’s almost obscene?”
After making a joke, Aemula looked at Shizu and Kaa and laughed.
It was quite annoying to see people sarcastically writhing around, but if you give a clumsy refutation here, you will end up being made fun of and become more of a nuisance.
I roughly waved my hand in response and headed towards where Pii was.
[Wow! Okay, stop! I can’t take it anymore!]
“It’s just because the liver is swollen.”
[Sorry! I’m sorry! Please forgive me now because your breasts are so big─ ugh!!]
It seemed like quite a bit of time had passed since I left, but Pii was still being held and scolded by Shizu.
However, the sight was somewhat unfamiliar and quite scary.
Pi is tied tightly to a small chair summoned by natural magic. A stick that mercilessly pries open between Piyi’s legs.
Every time the stick moves, Piy’s faint scream rings out, and every time Shizu applies strength, Piyi’s legs tremble and open pitifully.
That’s right. Shizu was holding onto Piyi and controlling her.
[Hiyaaak!! I’m broken! Oh, it’s really broken!]
“At most, it doesn’t get damaged to this extent. Now, here’s one more thing.”
[Well, not there! Not on the shin side! Wow!!]
I thought about cute corporal punishment such as tickling, but it was completely different from what I expected.
I never thought I would live and see a high elf wielding a tree spirit.
I froze for a moment at the unexpected sight, then laughed and headed towards the scene of the cruel torture.
‘Wow… ‘I’m not doing this as a joke, I’m really hurting you.’
This probably means that the topic of ‘breasts’ is so repulsive to Shizu.
From now on, let’s not mention the ‘A’ character on Shizu’s chest.
Having made up my mind, I began to mediate with Shizu, gently touching her shoulder.
“sh*t, Shizuya. I have to go out for a moment. “Now stop bothering me and give it back to me.”
“… ….”
When Shizu turned around, her face was as expressionless as a cold winter.
Her face was so scary that it sent shivers down my spine, but if she left here, my best friend would be ruined.
I tried to act calm for the sake of Piy’s crotch health.
After a while, Shizu, who had been making eye contact with her and me with an expressionless expression, dropped his gaze and asked her softly.
“…… “What are you going out for?”
The frozen atmosphere eased slightly and Piy’s crotch also regained its freedom.
Pui, covered in tears and snot, looks up at me as if begging me to save him, and Shizu’s ears perk up and begin to turn red from belated embarrassment.
I answered Shizu’s question with an awkward smile.
“I wanted to look around and check my relocation plan. “I need to listen to the centaurs’ opinions as well.”
“… ….”
Actually, there was no need to go with Piyi to tour the inside of the village. I just wanted to save him because I felt sorry for him being tortured.
Did you notice that fact right away?
Shizu, who was taking turns looking at me, Piyi, and her babies, grabbed my sleeve and said.
“…… “I’m going with you.”
It seemed that Shizu wanted to escape from her babies.
But it was clear that if Shizu disappeared at the same time as me, she would not have enough hands to take care of her babies.
No matter how inexperienced they are with no experience in raising children, it would be better to have at least one more person next to them.
I patted the back of Shizu’s pure white hand and shook her head.
“It may be difficult, but for now, I’ll take care of the babies. What if I take you with me and the wolf girl over there gets upset? “I’m taking Pii with me because she’ll only be a distraction.”
“Hey, hey Gaul! “I don’t get upset over things like that!?”
“Huh? “Then can I just take Shizu?”
“…… Now that I think about it again, I feel a little disappointed. “The more people there are to take care of the baby, the better.”
When Kaa, who was offended by my remarks, quickly cringed, Shizu clicked her tongue and let go of the sleeve of my dress.
Then, she canceled her magic, freeing Piyi, and she shot at Kaa bluntly.
“Hmph. She gets upset about being left alone. “This is behavior that a domesticated dog would display.”
Oh my.
Even though Kaa has the wild nature of a canine animal, she still says to her face that she is like a dog.
I think even the young lady of Qingqing Yingyue, who regards politeness as a virtue, would be angry about this.
‘We will fight again.’
I quickly picked up Pii, who was released from her restraints, and quietly stepped back from her.
At that time, Kaa, who had a pretty face frowning, looked at Shizu and softly shouted back.
“I think it’s better than getting upset over something that’s true, right? “Her breasts are the size of a pea, but she’s better than someone with a huge liver.”
Shizu’s sharp killing power pierces those around her, and Serakaa’s momentum, which is defeated, exudes a sense of intimidation.
As expected, this was an atmosphere that would escalate into a fight, as usual.
The first to react to this were the babies lying around.
The babies, who had barely stopped crying, began to cry again in the midst of the two young ladies’ lives.

“Ugh! Everyone, shut up… Babies are crying again….”
“Well, didn’t you start first!”
“No, that’s…” Okay, let’s be quiet….”
“Umm….”
As the babies around them cried, Shizu and Kaa were shocked and lost their momentum.
After failing to soothe a crying baby and making the baby cry again after being soothed, he seemed to have learned to be careful.
There is still reconciliation, but the two have stopped fighting. There really isn’t much progress.
I sniffled with deep emotion and headed toward the exit of the tent.
“If you build up such hate, are you going to get married?”
“That crazy guy!”
“What nonsense is that!”
Mr. Something is flying from behind.
I hurriedly ran out of the tent with Piyi in my arms.
