oh.

The child nodded in a vague way.

...

The man smiled and rubbed the child's head.

He also helped the child pull the raincoat hat.

"You're pretty sure you've been rescued..."

...

The child nodded seriously.

He was rescued.

...

"It was the elf or patron saint in the water who saved you."

The man nodded.

A sure look.

...

The boatman followed suit.

"yes."

"Our landscape has spiritual energy."

"I will bless the kind and good kids."

...

The child's mouth was grinning.

Show a big smile.

“Wow~”

The child cheered.

"Dad, I was saved by the elf in the water or the guardian saint!"

...

"Um."

The man helped the child pull the raincoat and hat that was a little shed due to the child's big moves.

"Lele is a lucky child."

"Lele is a good kid."

"So I was favored."

...

"Um!"

The child nodded heavily, "I am a good child."

The child's eyes are shiny.

"dad."

The child lay on his father's knees.

"What does the elf look like?"

"What does the patron saint look like?"

“I want to see them.”

"I want to say thank you to them."

"Thanks for saving me."

...

The man was slightly stunned.

Then the corners of his mouth curled up, "Lele, both the elf and the guardian are very mysterious."

"They won't appear before humans easily."

"They are all silently blessing kind and good children in the dark."

"We don't make things difficult for them."

"Okay?"

...

Why……

The child is very regretful.

He really wants to meet the elf and the guardian saint...

...

"You really want to thank them..."

Seeing that the child looked very disappointed, the man suggested that the child be.

"You can shout thank you to the water."

“They will hear it.”

...

"Really?"

The child's eyes are wide open.

He looked to the water.

Looking at dad again.

...

"real."

The man nodded, "They live in the water."

“They can hear it.”

...

"Then why don't they come out?"

The child reached out to stir the water.

...

“Because they are shy.”

The man's serious words.

"They are embarrassed to come out."

...

"They saved you."

The man looked at the children, "Isn't it not appropriate for you to force them out?"

“They will feel scared.”

"You really want to thank them for…"

The man smiled, "Just say thank you to the water."

“They will hear it.”

...

"……oh."

The child nodded.

Although it's a pity...

But Dad is right.

The child put his hands beside his mouth and shouted, "Thank you-Thank you!"

...

The people on the boat around were attracted.
