The Great Capture Strategy 1

“Ah, it’s that flower!”

“They are over there too~”

“Although it’s the season for Ice Flower Grass to grow, this is quite incredible~”

The next day, we entered the forest to look for Pastel Rabbits without a delay .

However, instead of Pastel Rabbits, Allen and Elena found Ice Flower Grass in large groups one after another .

(Oniichan, Oniichan! An Ice and Snow Flower is growing over there!)

(I will pick it no!)

(Aniue, there are many Lemoné fruits over here . )

(Bolt, drop them from the tree, please . Vector and I will catch them . )

(Leave it to me!)

Joule and others also found herbs and fruits, so everyone was cooperating with picking and harvesting .

“… Oy~ Our goal today is not picking fruit and herbs~”

(We know~)

“”Pastel Rabbits~””

(Wait a moment please, Aniue . We will finish soon . )

Allen, Elena and Joule often get absorbed when they discover something, but it’s unusual for Bolt to get this absorbed in it too .

(Oh my, how unusual for Bolt, isn’t it?)

Before I noticed, Feat stood by my side .

And, she was finding Bolt’s actions curious just like me .

“You think so too, Feat?”

(Yeah . This is just my guess, but are Lemoné fruit Bolt’s favorite, by any chance?)

“I see, that might be the case . ”

He would like to pick many if it’s something he really likes .

Come to think of it, I have not been paying attention to the preferences of Joule and others enough~

They delightfully ate what I made, but they surely have their favorite ingredients, right? I should have asked .

“Rather, weren’t you going to catch the Lemoné fruit too, Feat?”

(Vector is doing his best, so I left it to him . Look . )

“N?”

When I looked at Vector after being prompted by Feat, I saw him splendidly catching the fruits Bolt dropped into a fruit basket . The fruit was being dropped quite fast, but Vector caught them all without missing a single one .

Moreover, he seems to be having lots of fun .

“Yeah, there certainly won’t be any problems by leaving it to Vector . ”

(Isn’t that right? That’s why I thought that I wasn’t required . )

“Indeed . Then, you should stay with me, Feat . ”

(Yeah! I have Niisama all for myself~♪)

Feat, who is a person of firm character was acting spoiled, so I patted her head . Feat then happily purred .

After patting Feat for a while, Allen and Elena who were collecting Ice Flower Grass returned in a hurry . Then, the two drew closer to me as if asking to be patted, so I did .

Next, Joule and Mile who went to pick Ice and Snow Flowers returned . When Joule jumped at us as if saying (Let me in too~), everybody tumbled down . His current appearances are bigger than originally, after all~ Well, I am glad we ended without injuries . Allen and Elena were frolicking with Joule for “revenge . ”

And lastly, Vector who held a fruit basket full of Lemoné fruits in his mouth and the satisfied-looking Bolt returned .

(I am sorry to have kept you waiting, Aniue . )

“You did not take that long, so don’t worry about it . ”

Bolt landed on my shoulder and apologized for taking too long, so I patted him and told him not to mind it . Vector quickly put the basket in front of me and joined the kids in frolicking . No, it’s not an exaggeration to say that he charged straight into them .

“Still, you picked quite a lot~ Is it because you are fond of Lemoné fruits, Bolt?”

(Yes! I love sweet and sour!)

“Ohh, so it was like that after all~”

Just as I expected, Bolt loves Lemoné fruit .

“I could have prepared it for you anytime if you asked . ”

(It’s because we, the Contracted Beasts, fundamentally don’t have the need to eat, and yet we are receiving food from Aniue, so… I didn’t want to trouble you any further…)

I was shocked by Bolt’s excuse . I knew that he had an earnest personality, but I did not think it would be to such extent .

“What are you saying, Bolt . In the first place, the ingredients and money used for the meals have been obtained by everyone’s hard work, you know? You don’t have to restrain yourself so much . ”

(However…)

“You are not forcing to eat the meals I cook, are you?”

(Absolutely not! I am always looking forward to it!)

“I see, I am glad to hear that . If you are pleased with the meals I make, I am also happy . Therefore, if you have something you want to eat, don’t hold back and ask me . ”

In the end, cooking is the best when you know there’s someone to enjoy .

“Why don’t we start with what we have and make a snack from the Lemoné fruit?”

(Really!? I am so happy! Thank you very much, Aniue!)

Bolt was very pleased with my proposal .

(It’s not fa~ir if it’s only Bolt!)

But, here I heard Joule’s dissatisfied voice .

“Now, now, Joule . Stop sulking . I will properly make the things you like too . ”

(Really!?)

“Really . I will make everyone’s favorite things . But, all at once wouldn’t be possible, so do it in turns . You guys should all think about what dishes you want to eat, be it with fruits or berries, meat or any ingredient you like . ”

(Yaay~ I am so looking forward to it~)

(What a bliss . Thank you, Niisama . )

(I want meat~♪)

(I am looking forward to it no!)

When I said that I will hear everyone’s request, Joule and others started giving the names of ingredients, saying “That would be nice, this would be good . ”

“What about Allen~?”

“And Elena~?”

“You sure can too, but… don’t I always ask what you want to eat?”

“”Ehehe~””

Not liking being left out, Allen and Elena asked what about them . But, when I pointed out that I always ask them what they want to eat, the two tried to gloss over it with a laugh . Therefore, when I rustled Allen and Elena’s hair, the two started giggling .

“Now then, we should start looking for the Pastel Rabbits~”

“”(((((Yeah~)))))””

When I called out the instructions because we have derailed from our original purpose quite a lot, everyone gave me a cheerful reply .

“Let’s go~”

“That way~”

Allen and Elena told me the direction of the Pastel Rabbits, so we advanced deeper into the forest .

(Hey, hey, Oniichan . )

“N? What is it, Joule . ”

(That flower… it was a medicinal plant, right?)

After walking for a while, Joule found a white flower and asked me half-confidently .

“Yeah, that’s Chamomile . A kind of an herb . ”

(Herb? Is it edible?)

“It’s used for a tea . Also… it can be used as a flavoring too . Errr… it has relaxing effects if I am not mistaken?”

(It can be used then? I will get it!)

Understanding that Chamomile isn’t just a flower and is usable, Joule immediately broke into a run .

“Allen too~”

“Elena too~”

Allen and Elena undauntedly chased after Joule .

“Ahh~ we are derailing again~”

Securing things that can be eaten or used no matter what is apparently the motto of my children . My Infinite Storage gets full every time we go out .

Well, I have also mania for collecting things, so I can’t really say anything here~

“With moderation, okay~”

“”(Yess~)””

First of all, I cautioned them to not pick too much .

(Niisama, are you fine with not stopping them?)

“We can just stay a night out if we don’t have enough time . It’s quite cold, but it’s not unbearable and we should be able to keep ourselves warm by sticking to you guys . ”

(Fufu, leave it to me then . I won’t let you get cold, Niisama . )

“We will be in your care then . Besides, it will be fine even if we don’t find any Pastel Rabbits . ”

(Oh my, Niisama saying that again~ You are thinking that the possibility of not coming across them is highly unlikely, right?)

“… Well, you are right . ”

While talking about something like that with Feat, Allen and Elena who were picking the Chamomile stared fixedly at a certain place .

“”There!””

It seems that Allen and Elena discovered a Pastel Rabbit that was hiding in a bush .
