Category: Seeking Out My Mother in Another World

——Are you willing to inherit your father’s title?  With that unexpected question from Her Highness, I found myself feeling oddly lightheaded as I made my way back to the inn, lost in thought.  What exactly does a noble title entail?  What meaning does it hold? What kind of authority does it grant? And if I…

While we were deep in conversation, Mint had grown tired and fallen asleep.  Chocola, now full, lay curled up on her belly.  「You’re so transparent.」  「Fsshh… fshuu…」  When I stroked his back, he glanced at me briefly before burying his face into his own tail again. Looks like he was fully committed to rest mode. …

「It is true that in most countries, corn is primarily used as livestock feed. I was aware that in the Elf Kingdom of Alfheim, it serves as a staple food, at least in theory… but I never imagined it to be such a rich and robust ingredient. I can only feel ashamed of my shallow…

Chapter 66 – That Which Must Be Inherited  ——This story begins the day before Princess Yunia’s arrival.  As we prepared to welcome the royal entourage, we debated the best approach.  After all, they were making the long journey from the capital, and we genuinely wanted to extend our hospitality. At the same time, simply receiving…

From that moment on, there was no other way to describe it but as an onslaught.  「…Alright.」  After rinsing her fingers in the provided finger bowl, she steeled herself and took a bite of the so-called taco with her bare hands.  It was terribly improper.  And yet, strangely enough, it felt like the only way…

The delegation on this occasion consisted of a total of ten individuals.  First and foremost were Yunia, the First Princess, and Prime Minister Eidel.  A lady-in-waiting and a butler, each serving as attendants.  Two 『Witches』 as bodyguards—Tinam Sevnturi and Karsch Adalada.  And finally, four royal knights under Karsch’s command, who also doubled as coachmen.  For…

Tetra Norris was the daughter of the Norris Count family and a lady-in-waiting to the First Princess.  She had served the princess as an apprentice since the age of eleven and officially taken up her duties at fifteen. Now, three years later, she had been appointed as the attendant in charge of her mistress during…

「……So, ‘No Return-sama’ and ‘Continous Rain-sama’ will be accompanying them.」  After checking into the inn, we spent the evening unpacking, changing clothes, and washing off the grime of travel. By the time dinner was over, it was already night.  Grandma Seralinde finally arrived, looking utterly exhausted. After taking a sip of the tea I prepared…

After some discussion, we decided that the whole family would go to Sidera.  Since the one coming was a princess, Mother had already made sure there wouldn’t be any troublesome political matters involved. That meant we didn’t have to be overly formal out of concern, but at the same time, we couldn’t just be careless…

Volume 12 – That Which is Inherited Chapter 65 – The First Princess’ Visit Spring had come and gone in the blink of an eye, and now the rainy season was only about a month away.  Unlike last year, we didn’t have to prepare blindly without knowing how much rain to expect. Of course, weather…

The sun had long set. Dinner was over. A warm bath had washed away the fatigue of travel. And now, night had fully settled in.  After spending three days traveling each way and a full week in the Dragon’s Village, we had been gone for nearly two weeks. Now that we were finally home, there…

There are various theories about the origin of the name shichirin (七輪).  Some say it comes from the idea that it can be used with shichirin (七厘) worth of charcoal, referring to an old currency unit. Others claim it’s because it requires shichirin (七厘) worth of charcoal by weight. Why exactly shichirin (七厘) turned into…

And so, the day to return home arrived.  We loaded the lizard carriage with plenty of souvenirs and set off, seeing off Ji Liz’s family and the Lamias.  「Thank you for everything. We really appreciate it.」  「Yeah. Come visit again. Or perhaps, it’s our turn to visit next?」  「Hmm, you’re always welcome. Mint would be…

The pasture, stretching across the mountain slopes, carried the sea breeze drifting up from the ocean.  The grass, nourished by the mineral-rich air, was said to be excellent for livestock.  Maybe that’s why—Pochi had been in high spirits ever since we arrived, happily munching away at the grass.  「Could it be that you like this…

Chapter 64 – The Forest Is Peaceful, The Smell of The Waves It had been three days since we arrived at the Dragon Village.  Of course, the feast hadn’t lasted for days on end. From the second day onward, we had gone back to a more ordinary routine. But that didn’t mean we were simply…

In the end, all the cooking and preparations took longer than expected, well past lunchtime. But given the late hour, the bountiful catch, and the festive mood, the village naturally slipped into full-blown celebration.  The bonito was served as tataki, simmered in arobani, and even turned into shuto. The mirin-dried fillets wouldn’t be ready until…

「Shuto… wait, you mean that Shuto? From bonito? Whoa—how nostalgic! Sui-kun, you can even make something like this!?」  When I explained everything to Alice-san, who had just arrived at the beach, her face lit up.  「That’s a relief. Since it’s an acquired taste and more of a drinking snack, I thought maybe you wouldn’t be…

The bodies of the Lamia, known as the 『Delpyune Tribe』, possess a unique trait.  If they don’t consume seafood regularly, their health deteriorates.  It’s severe enough to be life-threatening, which is why the Delpyune Tribe primarily resides along the coast.  I had long suspected that this was due to DHA.  Perhaps their required intake of…

The Lamias typically eat their meat and fish raw. In the case of fish, they have a particularly astonishing habit of swallowing them whole.  They don’t usually bother with scaling the fish, and whether or not they remove the internal organs seems to depend on the species. However, they do seem to have their own…

We dove down the slope of the cliff. Unlike the first time I came here, when I cautiously picked my way down, this time, I practically leapt down the slope like it was a game of kenkenpa. A year of living in this other world has really changed me. With physical enhancement magic, bounding down…
