Chapter 19 – A Good Idea

And it probably means that Flame is recognized as a member of this city.

As if to confirm this, children had already gathered around Flame. They must have seen her flying carrying me. They were now requesting to be carried while flying as well.

“Wha-what should we do, Master?”

“They’re someone else’s child, we can’t let them do anything dangerous…”

Flame came to me asking for help, but I don’t want her to do something where she won’t be able to take responsibility if a problem happens to someone else’s child, even if they’re people of the town my family rules.

Also, if something were to happen, I would understand if we would be responsible for it, but in this case, my father would definitely be the one responsible.

As expected, I can’t allow myself to say “Sure, go ahead” and let Flame fly away with children in her arms.

I tried to explain this to children in an easy-to-understand manner, but they are still children.

It is almost impossible to find a child who is good enough to listen, who is willing to back down when you tell them it’s dangerous.

Children, by nature, often desire to do exactly what they are told not to, especially if it seems a bit daring.

Furthermore, since Flame was seen flying carrying me, it would be extremely difficult to convince the children, or rather, maybe it’s already impossible to convince them?

As I was thinking what to do,

“Hey, you!! What do you think you are doing? I heard you’re the son of the lord who rules this territory! If you’re the lord’s son, shouldn’t you be listening to the people!?”

If it were still just the children, then all I had to do was to make up a reasonable reason and dismiss it half-heartedly, but the presence of a girl, the daughter of the lord who rules this neighboring territory, made it even more troublesome.

By the way, the girl seems to have some wisdom. She argues with words that seem more logical than the other children, but her expression says, “Let me experience the sky too!!” I will not back down until you say ‘yes’!!” It was evident on her face.

However, if I flatly refuse because she is a noble’s daughter, and moreover, the daughter of a neighboring lord, it might indirectly cause trouble for my father by having all sorts of things insinuated by her parents. Is it acceptable to casually handle this with some reason?

I started to think of a good way to persuade her.

Today is a celebration for Flame, after all.

Ideally, I’d like to get through this day without any problems.

So, I came up with a good idea, and I decided to use it right away.

“Even so, Flame is my slave, and I’ve made a contract that only allows her to carry my family members when flying, so I can’t accommodate any other requests, no matter how much you ask. I’m sorry!”

This is the “It’s already decided in the slave contract, so it can’t be helped. Actually, I also want to make your wishes come true. But I really can’t, sorry~” strategy.
