Chapter 602: Shy Girl

If Benladra got wings, it means she'll go flying around all the time, which is dangerous! Is there a way to make her pull them back? Can she detach them? No... I don't think she can.

Also, it would be awful to make her detach her own wings! Why was I even considering that as an option? I am insane. I should just detach my own wings instead like the big idiot I am.

"This is dangerous, if she goes around flying, it might end up turning into something bad..." said Benladann.

"Yeah. She can already fly but not walk properly... This is even more surprising I guess..." I sighed.

Benladra was looking at us while we spoke, her little and beautiful eyes seemed attentive to what we were talking about despite not being able to understand us.

"If she flies off for some time and ends up hitting somewhere, she might get damage- well, not really... But she could get lost or something, that would be pretty bad!" said Benladann.

"Let's be honest, she's so resilient she might never truly get damaged... unless it is a very powerful threat..." I said.

"Well yeah... But that doesn't mean that we can let her have her way, right? We can't let her simply go around doing as she pleases! If she goes around and ends up getting lost!" said Benladann.

"I know, I know, relax, we won't let her get lost. This entire castle is Fuyu, so she's always keeping a watch over Benladra while we aren't, right, Fuyu?" I asked.

"Yeah, I am always looking at her." said Fuyu.

"Fuuuyy!" said Benladra, looking at the ceiling.

"So with her, there shouldn't be an easy way for her to escape and end up falling from the sky... Hopefully." I sighed.

"I hope so too..." sighed Benladann.

We looked at our daughter who sat down over the bed while looking at us cutely, she tilted her head curiously, wondering what we were thinking about.

"Mam?" she asked.

"Benladra, don't go wandering around where you're not permitted, okay? Please, don't go outside of Fuyu." Said Benladann. She tried to communicate with our mildly intelligent daughter, who seems to have some understanding.

"Owaaah!" said Benladra in response.

But Benladann failed miserably, little Benladra doesn't understand words properly and she sometimes is just in another world altogether, spacing out or losing concentration, but that's normal in a child after all.

Nonetheless, it really inspires you to "SIGH".

"Sigh... It didn't worked, this girl doesn't understand us..." sighed Benladann.

"She kind of understands a bit, but not completely, and sometimes she distracts herself. She's a baby after all, you can't really expect her to act like an adult or something, right?" I asked.

"Yeah... I guess, even as a reincarnated soul, she was probably a toddler at most... Poor girl, what did you go through to pass away so young? Ah, my little baby, I will make sure that you have a happy life, okay?" asked Benladann.

"Bebah!" said Benladra.

"Well! You heard your mother, Benladra, we better not disappoint you! We'll give you a nice life, alright? So? Want to eat something? Meat?" I asked.

"Meeeeee!" said Benladra, raising her little arms.

She knows about meat and calls it "mee" so I guess she understand some words and just calls them with her own words.

"Okay then, let's go pick some breakfast, take care of her until I come back, dear." I said.

"Oh? But I want to cook breakfast too..." said Benladann.

"But who will take care of the baby?" I asked.

"Me, I can do it..." said Miranda.

She suddenly emerged out of thin air, she had unsummoned herself yesterday night, to sleep "inside" of Benladann, and now she summoned herself back.

"Uwaah!"

Benladra dropped into her back the moment she saw Miranda show up out of nowhere, she was a bit scared of surprises like those.

"Uwaaahh! Buaaaah!"

And then she began to cry... such a crybaby!

Well, she's a baby so its fine...

"Miranda! I've told you to not show up like that! You'll surprise the little girl!" said Benladann, as she began to reprimand Miranda angrily.

"S-Sorry! I didn't mean to scare her like that..." sighed Miranda.

Benladann held Benladra in her arms and began to gently move her arms around to give a small rhythm and calm her down, while caressing her back and hair, and kissing her forehead.

"There, there... Calm down, my little princess... Everything is okay..." said Benladann.

"Buaaah! Buaaaahh!"

Benladra continued to cry desperately, as I caressed her hair and tried to calm her down myself.

"Come on, dear... My little goddess, calm down... Everything is okay... Who is my little angel? You are..." I said.

"You are... Indeed," said Benladann.

"Sniff... Sniff..."

Benladra looked at us with little teary eyes, as we cleansed the tears and she calmed down at long last at long last, looking at us with shiny eyes.

"Everything is okay... Miranda is your auntie, practically, so you don't have to fear her." said Benladann.

"Awuuh..." said Benladra, looking at Miranda while rubbing her face over Benladann's chest, trying to cover herself in her mother's clothes timidly.

"Don't worry, everything is okay," I said soothingly, as Benladra calmed down and fell a bit silent.

"I-Is it done? I am very sorry..." sighed Miranda.

"Yes... We have already dealt with it multiple times; we have to ensure her that we are there for her and she'll calm down eventually... That's how kids are, when they feel insecure and alone is when they begin to cry." I said.

"I-I see... You two are pretty good at it already... I wonder how it could feel to be a mother..." said Miranda.

"Well it's nothing too special... Well, it is, but still..." said Benladann.

"Benladra is very sensitive to things..." I said.

"Yeah... I guess it might be harder for us." Said Benladann.

"Ahh... I see..." said Miranda.

"A-Anyways, let's go make breakfast for now." I said.

As I stood up from bed, Benladra grabbed my robes tightly.

"Papa..." she said cutely.

"Ah... you don't want me to leave? Okay, I'll stay..." I said.

At the end, Miranda was helped by my slime clones.
