Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~ Chapter 41

Chapter 41

“Father, father, I need to talk to you . ”

After dinner was over, I took a look on my sister, called my father, and moved to the back of the house .

“It’s unusual for you Abel to want to have a talk . What, is it about the incense leaf?”

…… Lately father has only been talking about the incense leaf .

He’s very happy that I hit it and the Berek family has become a bit rich .

Since then, I’ve been visiting the Chief frequently .

I know there’s a lot to talk about in relation to incense leaf, but it’s still very frequent .

I feel like I’m rubbing up against the Chief and it’s complicated for me . I hope it doesn’t continue to grow and become a second Karlco family .

“No, it’s about GIzel . ”

“Well, it’s about time for you to think about that kind of stuff . If you didn’t begin to talk about it, I would have used this opportunity to talk about it . ”

Hm? Father wants to talk about Gizel?

Well, that’s to be expected . She didn’t say it out loud, but I’m sure our parents know about Gizel’s Brocon manners .

“So, when will the ceremony be held? It is preferable to do it within the year after the coming of age ceremony . There’s no point in procrastinating, and the next month doesn’t bode well . Maybe next week… . . ”

Isn’t there something wrong with that?

”Ple-, please wait a minute! What are you talking about, that is!”

“Huh? Wasn’t this about Gizel and your wedding?”

“……… . . yes? Eh, please wait a minute . Why would I and Gizel get married?”

My father frowns here .

No, I’m the one who wants to frown .

“What, you don’t like it?”

”No, that’s not a problem before you don’t want to! It’s crazy!”

As I spoke out my doubts, the sense of discomfort I had been feeling in this village was connecting at the same time .

When Gizel was a newborn, her parents wanted me to take care of her as much as possible .

That s.h.i.+bi misunderstood the relations.h.i.+p between me and Gizel .

Noswell says, “I’ll marry your sister” in a meaningful way .

Other value gaps I’ve felt in my life .

Come to think of it, there was a strange fairy tale at home .

The story was simple: a knight goes to the rescue of a princess who has been kidnapped by a dragon .

In the end, the princess shakes off the knight who helped her and ends up marrying her brother, whom she hadn’t seen a piece of before .

I feel like Gizel was crying when she read that .

I thought she was pitying the knight’s pity for being played with by Princess Brocon, but I wonder if that was something of a moving kind .

Is it possible that family marriage is encouraged in this village?

Come to think of it, it seems to me that there were religions where family marriage was considered a virtue even in my previous lives .

”No, no, I’m kind of… well, I don’t think I can look at Gizel like that . ”

“Hmm, well, you never know . ”

Good, it’s not like we’re not talking at all .

I guess so . That’s my dad, he knows what he’s talking about .

“Having a household means you have that much responsibility . Does it feel heavy on the free-spirited Abel? But you’re still a Marren adult . Take this opportunity to be a little more mature . ”

It’s not like that at all!

“I’m sorry, I thought marriages were usually done between other families…”

“What are you talking about? I’m married to my sister too, aren’t I?”

My father said, “It’s only natural . ”

“Ehhh……”

A startling fact that I didn’t want to know .

Was my mother my father’s sister?

No, no, no, no .

Up until now, I was sure that I had gone off on a tangent or thought that something was wrong, but I believed that this was not the case .

But now that I’ve been told, it certainly seems like there have been a number of exchanges suggesting such things .

“What’s the matter, Abel, you’re sweating so much . ”

“For, for what! Why can’t it just be with another house!”

“What’s the matter with you, really? By that reasoning, there would be no problem even among our own people . Listen, it’s said that the closer you are to one another, the stronger the magical power of your descendants…… . . ”

”You usually say bow bow bow bow, but now you’re dwelling on such a place?! I thought you didn’t care about magic anymore?!”

“What do you mean I didn’t care! It’s a very important Marren culture! Rather, you usually say magic, magic, so what’s the matter with you?”

“Yes, but! But!”

No, let’s calm down for now .

I’m a little panicked .

If we talk slowly and calmly, my father will understand .

”Listen, Father, please calm down and listen . There is a risk that harmful recessive genes will combine to cause genetic diseases when people who are closely related to each other have children . If you repeat it for generations, the risk increases rapidly . We’re throwing away the benefits of s.e.xual reproduction, so naturally, the body’s tolerance drops as well . ”

“Calm down, Abel, I don’t know what you’re talking about . ”

“Even a little cold can be a big deal…”

Having said that, I was reminded of the intense cold symptoms within the Marren tribe .

It’s having a negative effect after all . No, but I can handle it with magic, so it’s not a problem .

No, even without that, I can’t seem to mentally accept it .

“What, you weren’t in the mood for it? You said you were very good to Gizel…”

It is only as a sister .

I’m not willing to cross the line . Absolutely not .

“However, according to the rules of the village, if a brother or sister is born, the man will marry if the difference in age is less than five years if the man has come of age . It’s also a tradition… . ”

”No, it’s a bit…”

”Mmm, mmm . I didn’t expect you to say something like this, even though you are an eccentric person… . ”

My father said so and then fell silent .

I didn’t know what to say, either . A silence ensues .

“Brother! Brother! Mother, have you seen my brother? I haven’t seen him since a while ago . He wasn’t even in the front yard, you haven’t heard anything about him? I was so worried and worried that he might have run out of power without knowing and fallen down…

Gizel’s voice comes from the house .

Hearing this, my father walks out to the front door of the house .

“Wait a minute, wait a minute, Father! We haven’t finished our talk yet…… . ”

“It’s a good idea to get ready for the ceremony before Abel starts doing something redundant again . He gets swept up in the flow pretty easily, so as long as the ceremony is over, He’ll settle down…”

My father said in a whisper .

I stopped in my tracks .

Hey Old man, what did you just say .

“Fa-, father? You’re just joking, right?”

“Huh? Wha, did I just hear something?”

My father is clearly shaken .

No doubt about it . He’s going to strengthen the surroundings so that I will be forced to go with the flow .
