Chapter 76

The Food Procurement Operation

As an adult, or rather, as a grown-up five-year-old, I can endure not eating for two or three days.

In fact, in my past life, there were many times when I couldnโ€™t get food for two or three days, but I could manage.

It was very tough, but I didnโ€™t die.

โ€œLoa is a baby, so she canโ€™t endure it. She might get sick.โ€

โ€œItโ€™s tough.โ€

โ€œYes, itโ€™s tough.โ€

I think. I have to quickly secure enough food to fill Loaโ€™s stomach.

Even if I ask the goats and owls to gather food, it will take time.

It might be fine after tomorrow, or maybe after lunch, but I wonโ€™t make it in time for breakfast.

โ€œIn that caseโ€ฆ I have no choice but to sneak into the kitchenโ€ฆโ€

Though thereโ€™s a risk of being caught, itโ€™s the most certain and quickest way.

โ€œI might get scolded, but Loaโ€™s food is more important.โ€

Sara nodded seriously as she said this.

โ€œSara will sneak in? Sara, youโ€™re fast, right?โ€

โ€œIf itโ€™s sneaking in, Luria is perfect. She can hear Kuroโ€™s voice, you know?โ€

โ€œWhat do you mean?โ€ โ€œWoof?โ€

โ€œKuro can only be seen by Luria. Thatโ€™s why sheโ€™s perfect for reconnaissance.โ€

โ€œAh, I see!โ€ โ€œWoof!โ€ โ€œHeh-heh.โ€

While Sara and Daru were impressed, Kuro puffed up her chest proudly.

Kuro can never be found by mother, maid, or servants.

So, if I have Kuro scout ahead and confirm that no one is around, I can sneak in safely.

โ€œEven if mother gets close, Kuro will notice, right?โ€

โ€œโ€ฆItโ€™s a perfect plan.โ€

โ€œYes. Luria is a strategist.โ€

โ€œHuh?โ€

At that moment, Carro started tying a handkerchief around her neck, which she took out from the dresser.

โ€œCarro? โ€ฆAh! Youโ€™re going to use that to carry food, arenโ€™t you?โ€

โ€œKyuu!โ€

After letting out a cry, Carro ran out of the window into the rain.

I took a larger towel from the dresser.

โ€œIf I wrap the food in this, I can carry more.โ€

โ€œOh!โ€

Carro, being small and skilled, will probably bring back the food without being seen by anyone.

But, no matter how much she wraps the food with the handkerchief, Carro is still small.

It will be difficult to carry enough food to fill Loaโ€™s stomach.

โ€œIโ€™ll have to move quickly, too. Sara-chan, Daru, Kolko, Iโ€™m leaving Loa to you.โ€

โ€œUnderstood.โ€ โ€œAuu.โ€

โ€œHuh? Whereโ€™s Kolko?โ€

โ€œKolko went outside through the window just now.โ€

โ€œIn the rain?โ€

Maybe Kolko went for the usual patrol. Or perhaps, they went out to gather food.

โ€œBut, with Kolko, thereโ€™s no need to worry.โ€

โ€œNo need to worry.โ€

โ€œSara-chan, if mother comes this way, can you cover for me? Iโ€™ll be back right away.โ€

โ€œY-Yes.โ€ โ€œWa-woof.โ€

It would be a problem if it was discovered that Iโ€™m not there.

While Sara buys me some time, I need to hurry back to the room.

โ€œWell then, Iโ€™ll go.โ€

I tied the towel around my waist and walked out of the room.

โ€œRyaaa!โ€

At that moment, Loa leapt out of Saraโ€™s arms and clung to me.

โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong, Loa? Why are you crying so sadly?โ€

โ€œLuria-chan, did you think Iโ€™d be left behind?โ€

I thought the same as Sara, but Kuro, while gently petting Loa, said:

โ€œโ€ฆLoa-sama is worried about Luria-sama.โ€

โ€œWhat do you mean?โ€

โ€œShe thought she might meet an enemy or get lost if sheโ€™s left alone.โ€

I see. Thank you. Sara-chan, Loa is worried about me.โ€

Even though sheโ€™s a baby, sheโ€™s worrying about me.

Despite not having memories, Loa is very kind.

While petting Loa, I gently explain.

โ€œItโ€™s okay. Weโ€™re inside the house, so youโ€™re fine.โ€

โ€œRya?โ€

โ€œYes. Iโ€™ll be back right away, okay? Wait with Sara-chan and Daru.โ€

โ€œKuro-sama, Luria-sama is fine.โ€

After reassuring Loa with Kuro, I had Sara hold her.

โ€œLoa, letโ€™s wait together with Sara.โ€

โ€œโ€ฆRyam.โ€

โ€œPlease, Daru.โ€

โ€œWoof.โ€

Daru wagged his tail proudly, as if to say, โ€œLeave it to me.โ€
