第１０９掘：お祭りと住人達 その１ (Part1)
**Dungeon Excavation 109: The Festival and the Residents, Part 1**
**The Festival and the Residents**
**Side: Milly**
Yahoo!!
It’s been a while since we’ve had a Milly side chapter!!
I’ve been worried that I’ve been fading into the background with all the focus on Seraria, Ratz, and Eris handling the internal affairs, but at Yuki-san’s request, I’ve been entrusted with managing the Adventurer District and the Dungeon District. In terms of sheer land area, I’m in charge of the largest districts.
That’s right, I haven’t been fading away; it’s just that since Weed was founded, the number of adventurers entering has increased significantly since today.
This means my era is about to begin.
And, though I feel a bit bad for the other wives, the story is going to progress with me as the main focus.
“Well then, yesterday was quite eventful, but the festival continues today. I’m counting on you all.”
“““Yes!”””
Everyone responded to Yuki-san’s words.
By the way, the Hero from Yuki-san’s hometown has already taken the Idiot Princess and headed home.
It seems they’re proceeding with preparations as planned, but since military action requires an immense amount of logistics, it’ll be at least a month before anything happens.
Still, to think they insulted Weed this much and then used the gate to Gartz to leave—what is that about?
They’re really looking down on us, aren't they?
Yeah, I’m definitely going to make sure that Idiot Princess gets what’s coming to her.
“Alright, time to head to the Adventurer’s Guild.”
With that, I headed off to work just like everyone else.
Yesterday, we were gathered at the temporary government building to deal with the visiting kings, but other than that, we’ve been handling our duties as usual.
We have some free time, but since everyone has their own representative duties and posts, most of us are just on standby.
The newly opened Adventurer and Dungeon Districts, in particular, are full of rough characters, so there are a lot of problems.
Just yesterday, there were eight fights.
Four cases of intimidation against shops.
And fifteen disturbances at the guild.
However, not a single person was hauled off to the cells.
Thankfully, the veteran adventurers who arrived earlier have been actively participating in maintaining public order. In particular, Ovik-san and his group—who are acquaintances of Tori and Riel—have taken a liking to Weed and are being very cooperative.
I’m planning to make sure they get properly rewarded for that.
“Wait a second, Milly. Is it alright if I stay with you today?”
“Eh!? That’s fine by me, but... but... I won’t be able to pay much attention to you at my workplace, you know? But, if you still want to...”
Oh my, Yuki-san wanting to be with me at work.
I’m happy, but work... no, if we lock ourselves in the office...
“No, no, calm down. We already agreed to save that for after the festival, right?”
“...Ehh.”
“You look dissatisfied.”
“I’m not happy just having you follow me around for work. I mean, I want you to be clingy.”
“...Understood.”
Yuki-san slumped his shoulders in defeat.
Fufufu... Yuki-san hasn’t been able to say no to us much since yesterday’s events.
Thanks to that, we’ve been taking baths together every day—all of us together, that is.
Hugs are a given, and I made sure to establish that we get a morning kiss every day.
Yeah, that was a good move.
Everyone is glowing every morning.
Yuki-san is strangely bashful, so that kind of thing is fresh and wonderful.
“Oh, and is the situation with the kings alright?”
“It’s fine. We’ll handle that.”
“Yes, please leave the Gartz side to us.”
“I’ll handle Alstaire-sama. More importantly, please keep a close eye on your husband. Yesterday proved he’ll do reckless things.”
As I thought that, Seraria, Shera, and Rurua chimed in.
I see, the right person for the right job.
“Yeah, leave it to me. As long as I’m holding his arm like this, he’ll be fine.”
I hugged Yuki-san’s arm tightly.
I won’t let you get away.
“Brother!! We’re coming too!!”
“I’m going to stay with Big Brother. I’m going to protect him!!”
“That’s right. It’s better to have more escorts, isn’t it?”
The little ones seem to be tagging along too.
They don’t really have work, so they could be out playing during the festival.
But since we share the same husband, I’m grateful for their feelings.
“Then, please restrain the other side.”
“Understood, Milly-oneechan!!”
“Roger that, Milly-onesama!!”
“Then, I’ll take my usual spot.”
The three of them hung onto Yuki-san’s arms and head.
Every time I see it, they look more like children than lovers.
The day will come when I’ll be walking around like this with Yuki-san’s and my own children.
I can’t wait...
Ah, I think I’m going to get a nosebleed.
And so, the four of us arrived at the Adventurer District.
“Wow, there are so many people here.”
“Brother, Milly-onesama, I want to peek at that weapon shop over there!!”
“Don’t wander off, you two.”
Is it the blacksmith’s blood in Firia that makes her interested in such things?
“No. Today is for work. Well, I won’t stop you if you want to go see it personally, but don’t get lost, okay?”
“Uuu, I want to be with Big Brother!!”
“I’ll endure it.”
“I wasn’t planning on going anyway.”
Yuki-san lectured them while I held his arm beside him.
Ah, we really are the ideal, large, happy family.
Feeling warmed by that, we arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild.
Like the supermarket, there’s a back entrance, but there’s no rule saying staff have to use it.
So we entered through the front as usual, but...
“Yes, yes, the reception is over here!!”
“If you want to use the direct gate to the dungeon, please go to the Dungeon District first and look for it. There’s an easy-to-identify piece of evidence there. Once you have that, you can use it!!”
The staff members were busy.
Since general adventurers started arriving yesterday, the place was packed.
I had to handle the reception myself yesterday, after all.
“Oh, isn’t that Milly-chan? Handle our registration!”
“It really is!! Over here, over here!!”
Just as Yuki-san was talking to the Guild Master, Rock-san, some idiots called out to me.
“See? I told you yesterday, the women here are high-level.”
“You’re right. Hey, hey, want to go grab a meal later?”
Drop dead.
Get lost.
