Chapter 27 (1/2)

After that incident with Thomas, I am now feared in the town, yet I play the gentleman in the brothel, I am gentle with the girls, cherish them and send them to heaven repeatedly.

Marie continued her charity work, and as her master I become popular on the poor.

However, some were misunderstanding that I was a gentle guy because I was sweet with girls and they tried to be overly-familiar with me.

Just like today, even though I told them that the study room is off-limits, Emily knocked on the door.

「Hey, are you here? I made some apple pie so I brought them here.」

Although Alma is our exclusive cook, I decided to have Emily make my favorite food which is apple pie.

Emily also complained that she won’t let anyone else make apple pie.

「I’m busy. Leave it in the living room, I’ll eat it later.」

「It’ll be cold by then, I want you to eat it while it’s hot」

I allowed Emily in while sighing.

I don’t see any problem with it anyway.

Emily sneak up from my behind and tried to read what I’m writing.

「What’s this formula symbol thing? I’ve never seen such writing before.」

「This one’s a cursed ancient symbol. If you stare long enough you’ll be cursed.」

I said while I was shooing her away, Emily replied with a bleh  and left the apple pie dish on the desk.

By the way, what I was writing was a formula calculating the interest rate, I can do it mentally, but I want to transcribe it, just in case.

Seeing the pie, I grabbed a slice and eat silently.

「Tell me your impressions」

「It’s delicious as usual so there’s no need to say it」

When I said that, Emily’s face reddened and hit me.

「ouch」
