Chapter 03 - The second daughter, Anna, is a firm person
I was on my way home with Elsa.
"Uwaaaaa!
I saw a man in work clothes running from the opposite way.
With a pale look.
Screamed, breathing roughly, seemed like escaping from something.
――What happened to the Kamuru guy? With such a frightened look. Maybe a monster appeared in the village and was being chased?
I was wary about it, but it was Anna, the second daughter of the three sisters, not a monster, who ran chasing Kamuru.
The braided hair was hanging from her left shoulder. (ASW: hairstyle of the death??)
Ten of the ten people who saw her had a noble cat-like look that made them thought, "She is cute, but her spirit is too strong."
A thirties worker desperately escaped from a teenage girl.
As if they were chased by a monster.
"Papa! Please catch Kamuru-san!"
"Eh? Ah, yeah."
At the request of my daughter, I stood in front of that worker――Kamuru.
"Move away from there! Kaizer!"
"I can't do that. It's my daughter's request. As a parent, I want to fulfill it. ――I'm sorry, but I want you to understand!"
I gave a tackle on Kamuru and he collapsed to the road.
"――Guha!"
"Papa, naisu!"
Anna thumbed up her thumb and rushed to me.
"Why did Kamuru escape?"
"There's nothing I can do about it. This person secretly drank alcohol and skipped even though he was at work. I thought I have strict him down."
"It can't be helped right! Sometimes I need to take a break!"
"Don't take a break during the working hours. To do that, I've set the working hours of the mine five days a week from 8 am to 5 pm."
"We want to work on the day when we feel like it, and we want to go home when we want! That regular things don't fit us!"
"It would be inefficient, when the work time, work hard. When the rest time, take a rest. It's important to add effectiveness."
Anna said that.
"But――if you can work like papa, you can make the same profits by working just two or three hours a week."
"Don't say such a crazy thing! Kaizer is in the monster level! He has enough power equal to 100 workers!"
"Right? I'll hear your complaint if you have the capacity like papa. Now, you have to work hard five days a week, for eight hours."
"A, a brat like you shouldn't put your mouth about our work!"
"Hnn. Ever since the brat like me started to put mouth to your work, didn't the mine's profits hit the highest record?"
"Guuh ...!"
"It's not like I don't care. Even if I'm the on-site manager, it's a work I was originally asked to do. I'll just have to report to your boss and your wife."
"Do, don't do that!"
Kamuru said in a hurry.
"My boss and my wife trust in Anna more than me! If you do, I'll lose my position both at work and at home!"
Kamuru was kneeling on the ground, begged before Anna's feet.
A thirties man begged for forgiveness to a ten-year-old girl.
It was a great view.
"Then you will work without saying any complain. Okkee?"
"Ye, yes ..."
"Once you knew it, return to the site immediately. If you don't do it quickly, you'll run out of the valuable lunchtime, you know."
"Da, dammit!"
When Kamul spewed that word away, he rushed to the coal mine.
"Haa.... I thought that all the adults were as firm as papa. Actually, they are just only children with adult skins. If I spoil them a little, they'll skip work, make an excuse and excuses. Are there no limit to their negligence.''
Anna made a deep sigh, as if to be amazed.
A mature gesture that couldn't be thought of as being ten years old.
"It seems like it's hard every day. Mending the damage to the village caused by the previous typhoon as the on-site manager of the coal mine. Recently, are you also involved in managing a bar?"
Really――.
The second daughter, Anna, was good at managing and moving people.
There were countless businesses that doubled its profits by her involvement, and even if there was a dispute, it stopped as soon as she entered as arbitrator.
Anna was also liked by older people.
Whether they were the master of the coal mine, the chief of the village, or the master of the bar. It was exceptionally good to enter the elders' favor.
It was a promising future in a different way from Elsa.
"I'm helping because I was asked by the others. With various experiences, it will be useful when I enter the guild in the future."
"Anna has a dream to become a guild master huh."
"Elsa says she wants to be an adventurer. She's just a kid except for her swordsmanship. So, I'll manage the rest somehow."
"I, I can do other things than the swordsmanship!"
"Hee. So you know exactly how much our household spends? So you know how much the cost you need to live in a month?"
"........."
The eyes of Elsa became blank.
It seems that she had overheated.
It seems that numbers were her weakness.
"You see"
Anna smiled triumphantly.
"And I also want to support the same adventurers as papa. So, the Guild Master's job is the best option."
I knew about it.
Anna was making a dream note that she would do a thing at the age of XX in order to fulfill her goal of becoming a Guild Master.
Every year, she set detailed goals.
Surely Anna's dream would come true.
"Will papa and Elsa go home now?"
"Yeah. I'll bake an apple pie."
"Apple pie! Is it homemade by papa?"
"Of course. I will make it with my hands."
"It's great! I'll go with you too!"
"Do not you still have a job?"
"There is no priority other than papa's apple pie ?."
Anna brightened her expression and tangled her arm around my arm.
Her adult-like aura that was just before had disappeared and now became completely spoiled child....... This kind of her part was still a 10 years old spoiled and innocent child.
I headed home with Elsa and Anna.
