“Is this serious?”
“If you don’t want to die then please do it seriously. Russ, you erect a 【barrier】 around her and look out for her.”
“Master, I won’t go with you?”
“I can’t bring you to the city with me, Russ. There will be a commotion if I bring you with me.”
Russ then gave a low acceptance voice.
“Alright.”
Because Russ can’t refute anything to Yu words.
“Russ is sulking. Hahaha. Master, can Namari come with you?”
“yes, you can wait for me outside.”
Namari then jumped off from the sofa and walked to the garden happily.
“Hey, about the merchant…”
“Yes, what is it Mussu-san?”
Mussu who has been leaning against the couch staring at Yu.
“Speaking of merchant, could it be someone that few years ago opened another shop in the Samantha city and in the fortress city Morigur?”
“So?”
“No, I think there will be some problem later on. Because the Viscount of Cipriano from Samantha city is well known of his greed and will chase anyone that has debt to him.”
“Don’t worry, we can do something about that.”
“Anyway, his stores lately have been increasing in numbers too. More than double in number. Where did he get the money I wonder.”
“probably because the merchant has been setting up his foundation in Comer city. It can be coming from his savings.”
“I see. By the way there was a story that a dragon in Houdon Kingdom, the 「Greed Drag-on」, Maguranarusu that loved to collect treasures, I wonder if that is true.”
Mussu then drank a wine to clear his throat. Joseph who was not interested in the talk was taking another garlic fries.
“well, what does that have to do with me? It’s not like I’m looking for money or wealth.”
“There’s no connection but financial power is always an advantage, who knows that you might be interested.”
“Well, the enemy won’t care and will easily defeat you if the power only come from your wealth.
“yeah but some of the top leaders are relying on money. Anyway, about the war specula-tion before, there is a rumor of a country will be made.”
“It was only a speculation right?”
From the start till now, Mussu was still smiling and Yu maintained his emotionless face. Only Nungu realizing what may happened and looked at both of them with sad eyes.
Yu then walked towards the front door. Marifa was already standing there and Yu opened the door.
“I feel useless without Yu around.”
Nina said that many times and Marifa felt it too but she can’t say anything.
However, after Yu finished opening the door, he release his hand from the door handle and grasp Marifa’s cheek with both hand.
“Ma-ma-master?”
Marifa was panic at the sudden action but Yu was looking at her seriously.
“Are you okay? I can’t read people’s feelings but I know that there’s something wrong with you.”
Marifa has lost her confidence and been completely out of it. She was one of the first servants of Yu but she was losing to the newcomer. Realizing the situation now, Marifa was trembling, she was afraid that Yu was angry at her for being so weak.
“I also don’t know how to cheer you up. So is there anything you want me to do?”
Yu released her cheeks and next thing, he grabbed her ears and pulled it. Every time he pulled it, she shrieked a bit.
“Aah, aah.”
The voice almost like a moan and she was panting.
“Ma…master, please stop. I’m alright.”
Hearing Marifa’s words, Yu was kind of relieved. Even fighting with a high ranked monster, Yu never felt a single ounce of anxiety but seeing these girls, he was worried. After he confirmed that Marifa was alright, he walked out and Namari was waiting while playing with Corro.
“Odono-san, you’re so slow!”
“Don’t worry. We’ll go now.”
“But, what happened? Mari nee-san face is bright red.”
“um… nothing?”
After that Namari and Coro followed after Yu but kept taking a peek to Marifa that has reddened up to her ear.
