"What!

A blade suddenly appeared from the chest of the demon in front of her.

The girl let out a small cry and fell on her ...... buttocks.

"Are you okay?

The dragon ape, on the other hand, didn't even seem to notice the poke, and just expired.

When I saw that, I asked the girl that.

It looks like they ...... are not injured or anything.

"Oh ...... yes!　Thank you for saving me.

The girl said, and stood up.

The girl then bowed politely to me.

The girl then politely bowed to me. "Um, ...... what do you want me to do with the loot?

I asked the girl.

The girl had completely lost her will to fight, so there was no chance of her claiming, "It was my prize! I'm sure the odds of her claiming "I was your prey!" are slim to none. ...... In case you're wondering, she had her sword at the ready before I arrived.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're getting yourself into.

"Rewards are ...... outrageous. Please feel free to sell that demon at the guild or whatever.

Despite my concerns, the girl replied with a wave of her hand.

I understand.

The girl waved her hand and said, "I understand." Thinking that it was okay as expected, I put the Dragon Ape away with storage magic.

The girl seemed to have regained some composure and asked me.

"Um, ......, what's your name?

"Valerius. What's yours?

My name is Laili.

After exchanging introductions with the girl who called herself Lili.

I was thinking of asking her about the location of the lord's mansion, but before I did ......, I decided to ask her about something that had been bothering me.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

To be honest, ...... the Dragon Ape is not that ferocious of a demon.

If the humans don't want to fight, they usually won't come down from the sky.

But ...... when I checked with my clairvoyant, Dragon Ape had already landed on the ground and was confronting Riley.

If you are capable of defeating the Dragon Ape, you may try to do so. ...... Riley doesn't seem to have that kind of power, and I'm sure she knows it.

And if you're that kind of person, you'll usually choose to run away or get by.

And yet, Riley was holding her sword toward Dragon Ape.

I was suddenly curious about that, so I asked her about it.

In response to my question, ...... Rairi began to talk.

"Actually, I might have to marry a certain nobleman to protect my ...... family. When I was wandering around outside, I ran into the ...... demon I mentioned earlier. I thought I had to run away, I thought it would be better to die fighting, I thought I was scared,......, my thoughts were all jumbled up, and that's what happened.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.

I guess I shouldn't have started asking .......

If I had asked, it would have been a problem that I had no control over.

If you're so inclined, you might be able to do something about it by recklessly using extraterritoriality, but ...... that's not very admirable.

Well, ...... sometimes just talking can make you feel better, so let's just say it wasn't all bad.

While I was thinking about this, ...... the Caucasus and the others on the myotrope finally came to join us.

What's that?　What's that?

I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I think it's a good idea.

It's my cousin Caucasus and his sidekick, Belzebub. They're my friends, so there's nothing to worry about.

I explained this to calm her down.

Then ...... Riley rolled her eyes and said something like this.

"Caucasus and Belzebub...... black and gold hair...... and, if you look closely, a sword made of Lunar Metal....... I'm not sure if this is the same Valius-san that the rumors are saying is the same Valius-san, the crazy tamer?

"Ah, probably .......

I was so excited by Riley's enthusiasm that I said "probably".

I'm sure it was me, judging by the way I judged it. ...... "The rumored rumored rumored rumored rumored tamer", what kind of topic is that?

I'm sure it's me. What kind of business did you come to Retorga for, by the way?

As I was making a mental comment, Lili now asked me such a question.

I'm here to consult with the lord about the new crops. If you don't mind, could you tell me where the house is located?

While answering that, I also asked for the direction of the mansion.

Then ...... Riley looked puzzled and said, "Well, I'm here for my father.

What, you want to see my father?　If so, I'll ...... show you in person.

...... Hmm?

Did you just say "father"?

Lili, you are the daughter of the lord of this place. .......
