Opening an orphanage in another world

Me, scouting the S rank monster that can Kill a light Behemoth? It's a dangerous job and I sincerely wanted to decline it because I never done it before, not on earth and neither in this world, so where should I start and how do I begin to search for it? Blindly? That being said, it's a bad idea to just leave such a dangerous monster roaming around, the monster might attack these children should they decide to train in the dungeon once again and if that were to happen...

"Right, I'll accept the job, but can I start tomorrow?" [Ash]

"Brother Ash!" [Rean]

"It's dangerous!" [Elise]

"Yup, it is, but so does letting that monster roaming around freely, plus, I accepted this job because of you guys as well" [Ash]

""Huh?"" [Rean, Elise]

"Well, there's no way I can let you guys enter the dungeon knowing such a dangerous creature roaming around freely, it feels like I am sending you guys to meet the god of death if I do so. That's why I decided to take this job so that you can train in a safer environment" [Ash]

Well, that's my main reason, nothing else matter for me. Rean and Elise still feel reluctant to let me go, so

"Instead of worrying too much, how about all of you send him properly the next morning. I'm sure Ash will be more delighted that way" [Claude]

"Nice one Claude. Well, Grandpa did tell the truth, rather than your sour face like now, I would like to be send off with a bright smile, that way I can focus more on this job" [Ash]

"Fine... but you better explain it to the other properly!" [Elise]

"Don't worry, I'll do just that" [Ash]

"Thank you Ash, both of you as well" [Diana]

"No problem" [Ash]

With that said, we end our meeting. Once we head out of the meeting room, those kids started to swarm us once again. This is bad, no wonder Elise ask me to explain the job myself, I mean who can said something like "I will search for a dangerous monster that has killed another dangerous monster and I'll depart tomorrow morning itself". What should I do...

"Claude, can you prepare some sweet dish for dinner?" [Ash]

"Understood" [Claude]

Thank god, Claude seems to know what I am thinking now, when you wanted to please someone, please their stomach first, especially true for kids.

Since it is this late already, I asked Diana and the other to have dinner with us, but they politely declined it since they have other things to do, too bad since Claude really are an expert on making sweet dishes.

Once we finish our dinner, the kid seems satisfied, this should be a good time

"Listen up all of you, I'll be out for tomorrow for a job, so can you please be a good boy and girl and seat quietly in the house?" [Ash]

What am I, an idiot? That wasn't even enough to be called an explanation. Look at their face, full of confusion since their idiot big brother can't even explain such thing

"Well, I'll be investigating some dungeon abnormalities starting tomorrow morning, so instead of training in the dungeon with me, you guys should have a study session with Claude tomorrow" [Ash]

There, that's better, well I am not lying to them, just withholding some important facts, yup just withholding them for now

"Is it about the S rank monster that kill Behe parents?" [Mara]

Mara, why are you so sharp. Usually I'll be happy but not now.

"Is it?" [Kara]

Crap, they are looking at me, begging me not to go, now how should I explained this

"Brother Ash..." [Farhah]

"Please tell us you are Joking" [Zerolith]

Well, what should I do, they are on a verge to cry. What should I do, What should I do. Mother, Father, what should I say...

"Basically yes" [Ash]

"!" [Kids]

"Sorry, but I have to take that job, it's for your own good. Otherwise, I will be reluctant to train you guys in the dungeon, but I promise you I will come back safely" [Ash]

Well, that's the only thing I can do, I had promised them the same thing when I fought the Behemoth last time, so I guess this should be enough?

"Idiot!" [Kara]

Kara runs off back to her room, Charlotte also started to cry, she might not understand the full scope of the job, but even she knew I am about to do something dangerous. God, this is stressing, here I thought the same tactic can be applied just like the last time. The other doesn't even want to see me in the face right now, not that they are hating me, but they are probably to sad to mutter a word.

And just like that, Mara brings Farhah and Charlotte back to the girls room. Zerolith and Karon seem to understand the reasoning behind it but couldn't bring themselves to accept it, while Singa

"Isn't there anyone else well-suited for the job!" [Singa]

Well, he and Savel are on the same boat with the other as well, and my dumb ass brain decided to just mutter the same word again, of course they will be disappointed! And there they go, going back to their room

"Sigh..." [Ash]

"Sorry, Elise and I will properly explain it to them afterwards" [Rean]

"Please do, and sorry" [Ash]

"It's alright, you have done your best" [Elise]

Rean and Elise joined them shortly afterwards, Claude told them to just go and leave washing the plate to both of us where we strike a conversation

"I'm an idiot... expecting them to understand it just like Rean and Elise, no I'm sure both of them feel the same" [Ash]

"Well, this must be your first time having to explain something to your family member" [Claude]

"I'm an orphan, just like them, and my uncle and aunt, let just said they weren't the best guardian around so..." [Ash]

"I can guess what happen, but that's fine" [Claude]

"?" [Ash]

"Do you think us parents know everything?" [Claude]

"..." [Ash]

"At the end of the day, we are all mortal, bound by feeling, we can't help but to made a mistake. My master and I, both of us had make a mistake when raising a child, having so much conflicting feeling afterward, so that's why..." [Claude]

as the advice come to an end, so does the plate and glasses to be washed

"Learn from those mistake, at the end of the day, both my master and I wanted the best for our children, and I'm sure you feel the same toward your little brother and sister as well. That's why apologize to them tomorrow, and just like I said, make them send you off with a smile" [Claude]

"I see... thank you, Claude. Boy am I glad not vanishing you that day" [Ash]

"Such dark humour" [Claude]

"You'll have to get used to it" [Ash]

And when the morning came, just when I am about to leave...

"You guys..." [Ash]

"Sorry Brother Ash... for yesterday" [Kara]

Well, I am the one at fault here, so...

"It's alright, I'm sure you guys are worried about me, and that make me glad" [Ash]

"..." [Zerolith]

"But at the same time, I also feel the same, like I said, I can't just leave that monster behind, knowing it can hurt any one of you here" [Ash]

"Promise us you will come back safely!" [Charlotte]

"Promise" [Ash]

It's the same thing, I just repeat the same promise once again, but this time around, both parties can empathize with one another as compared to last night

"Rean, Elise, thank you" [Ash]

They did a wonderful job, seriously thank you so much,

"Someone become beet red already" [Ash]

"Am not!" [Elise]

"If you said so" [Ash]

Well, I'm glad things turn out alright and with that, they send me off with a smile. Lesson learned
