Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

Chapter 548 Former Companion and the Demon King, a Community [Perseus]

"Stop calling me 'sir'. I am now someone else's possession. As a member of the 'Little Garden Noble,' you'll be laughed at if you show respect to 'objects'."

The girl, known as Leticia, smiled wryly as she was ushered into the office by Black Rabbit.

"I don't care what others say, Lady Leticia is Lady Leticia!"

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked with some curiosity:

"Black Rabbit, is this someone you know?"

"Yes!"

Mentioning this, a hint of sadness flashed in Black Rabbit's eyes, which had been beaming with joy, but she quickly smiled again and said:

"Lady Leticia was a companion of our community before it was destroyed by the Demon King."

"Eh?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Leticia with surprise and curiosity, and many questions arose in their minds.

But before they could speak, Black Rabbit seemed to have thought of something and looked at Leticia with concern, saying:

"By the way, Lady Leticia, why are you here?"

"That's exactly the question I wanted to ask."

Mentioning this matter, Leticia became slightly more serious and asked Black Rabbit:

"You're not playing a game of grace, are you? Why would you trespass into another community's residential area at this time, and even try to kidnap their leader?"

"What the hell are you doing?"

By the end, the other person's tone had become tinged with disappointment and reproach. Black Rabbit finally realized what was happening, let out a mournful cry, and hurriedly explained:

"That's not how it is! Lady Leticia, please let me explain...!"

Black Rabbit explained the whole story as quickly and clearly as possible, at her fastest pace. After understanding the whole situation, Leticia softened again, glanced at the bound and gagged Jard with disgust, and nodded:

"I see."

"call--"

Having explained everything clearly, Black Rabbit breathed a long sigh of relief, fearing that their community's reputation would be ruined.

"that……"

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally couldn't help but raise her hand and suggest:

"Everyone has a lot to say, but how about we talk about it slowly after we get back to the community?"

Leticia paused for a moment, then chuckled softly:

"Too."

……

...

"Lei, Lady Leticia!?"

"Long time no see, Ren. I didn't expect you to have grown so much."

Leticia responded with a smile, a hint of nostalgia flashing in her eyes as she looked at the familiar building before her.

Back at the community headquarters, in the main hall, the undisturbed children were already fast asleep, with only Renhe No. 1 and No. 2 still awake.

Faced with Leticia's sudden return, Ren's excitement and surprise were exactly the same as Black Rabbit's. After the excitement subsided, he also asked with the same doubt:

"Lady Leticia, why are you here?"

Izayoi Sakamaki also spoke up:

"And shouldn't you explain to us what exactly is going on now?"

"of course."

Black Rabbit nodded and said:

"Then let them explain the general situation first."

As Black Rabbit just mentioned, Leticia was one of the members of their community before it was destroyed by the Demon King. She was known as the "Knight of the Little Garden" in the Little Garden and was a pure-blooded vampire who possessed both the blessings of "pure-blooded demon" and "divine status." She was also the former Demon King of the Little Garden.

It is said that at her peak, Leticia possessed terrifying strength in the thousands.

"A purebred vampire?"

"Former Demon King?"

Upon hearing this, the problem children looked at Leticia again with surprise and interest, which also refreshed their understanding of the predecessor of [No Name].

Back to the point.

Three years ago, after the community was completely destroyed by an unknown demon king, all members of the community, except for Black Rabbit, Jin, and 120 other children, disappeared.

Leticia was one of the few companions whose whereabouts they managed to locate.

After being abducted by the Demon King, the other party was sold as a slave to other communities. After several transfers, the slave eventually fell into the hands of a community called [Perseus].

Finally, Ren picked up where Black Rabbit left off and said in a deep voice:

"...Recently, [Perseus] plans to hold a game of grace, and the prize is Lady Leticia."

Once incredibly powerful companions, they have now become "items" that can be given away at will as rewards. The bitterness and sorrow they feel are probably only known to Black Rabbit and his companions.

Fujimaru Ritsuka noticed something else and guessed:

"This is one of the reasons why you invited Izayoi-kun and the others, isn't it?"

"Yes."

Ren nodded in agreement, and Black Rabbit bowed sincerely:

"Young Master Ren and I hope that all of you will participate in the Gift Game held by [Perseus], ​​win, and bring Lady Leticia back."

Reviving the community is naturally their most fundamental goal, but their immediate priority is to find the companions they have lost.

"I see."

Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others nodded knowingly, then looked at Leticia and said:

"So, why is Miss Leticia here now?"

Leticia looked at Renhe and Black Rabbit, and said with a wry smile:

"I only managed to get the opportunity to come here because I was trying to persuade you to dissolve the community."

"Eh?"×2

"Rebuilding the community in the name of 'No Name' is such a difficult and thorny path. I was furious when I heard the news... How could you do something so foolish?"

"But then I suddenly heard that a holder of the highest level of grace had joined the community and become your companion."

and also……

Leticia couldn't help but glance at Fujimaru Ritsuka. This must be the girl with a powerful background that Lord White Demon mentioned, the one who shouldn't be messed with.

Ultimately, she wanted to come and see for herself, to confirm whether the current [No Name] had the ability to rebuild the community.

As she arrived at the Fores Garo base, she happened to pass by and saw Black Rabbit and Izayoi Sakamaki sneaking around the other's base.

At this point, Leticia couldn't help but chuckle:

"At the time, I thought you had gone astray."

"No, I didn't!"

Black Rabbit's face instantly turned red with embarrassment, and she glared fiercely at the four problem children beside her who didn't seem to care.

“Perseus…”

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't notice Black Rabbit's gaze, as her attention was drawn to a somewhat familiar name. After a moment's hesitation, she asked Black Rabbit:

"What is the connection between this [Perseus] community and Perseus from Greek mythology?"

"Yes."

Black Rabbit nodded in agreement, and then explained:

"Perseus is the community that was established after that great hero came to the Garden of Bamboo. The current leader of the community and its representative members are all descendants of Perseus."

"A descendant of Perseus?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately showed interest in her eyes.

Although Perseus was not summoned to Chaldea by her, she was not unfamiliar with the hero.

Because within Chaldea, there was a servant closely associated with him, who was also her best friend—

That was Perseus's wife, Andromeda, who became the constellation Andromeda after her death.

Chapter 549 The Purchase Plan, Super Rich Fujimaru Ritsuka

Meanwhile, having mentioned the community [Perseus], ​​Leticia revealed her second purpose for coming here—

"what?!"

"Perseus has cancelled the planned Gift Game?!"

This news was like a bolt from the blue for Renhe Black Rabbit. Black Rabbit found it hard to accept:

"But everything was fine before, why was the game suddenly canceled?!"

"It's said they found a better seller over there, so..."

Leticia gave a bitter smile.

If she could, she wouldn't want Black Rabbit and the others to see her in such an embarrassing state—appearing before them as a "commodity" that could be bought and sold at will.

But if we don't take this opportunity to meet them, it's uncertain whether we'll have another chance to see them in the future.

"How could this happen...!"

Jin bit his finger in frustration. Just then, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had just arrived, raised her hand and asked:
