Chapter 94 I Think I Helped Sieg-san (1/2)

[……Of course, I know that Kaito-san doesn’t have any bad intentions. However, how many times have you done this already? Kuromueina-sama, God of Creation-sama, Death King-sama, and now World King-sama…… Even if you leave Chronois-sama out of that, you’ve already done this four times.]

[……Yes.]

[I’m already at my wit’s end, so aren’t I allowed to scold Kaito-san at least once!?]

[I- It’s as you say.]

In front of Lilia-san who was standing in front of me with a sad expression on her face…… or rather, she’s half-crying already, I was sitting in a seiza while bowing my head.

The content of our conversation was, of course, about Lillywood-san, and since she’s already the third one among the Six Kings, it seems that Lilia-san’s patience reached its limit.

But even so, I’m not sure if it’s because she understands that I didn’t intentionally do it, so she’s not unnecessarily yelling at me…… but it’s more like she’s complaining at me.

[……Well, it’s not that Kaito-san was hiding it this time, and fortunately, if it’s the World King-sama, she wasn’t a troublesome one. So, let’s end the conversation here.]

[T- Thank you.]

It seems that this is the end of the sermon, or rather, the complaints, as Lilia-san lets out a big sigh and her tense expression breaks down.

Well, I’m really feeling sorry for pushing Lilia-san to this point, and I know that the people I got to know are so outrageous that the kind Lilia-san has an expression that looks like a crisis is approaching.

No, I’m really sorry…… but…… If I could just complain about just one thing, just one thing…… Lilia-san, I would have been happy if you could have reached that conclusion “30 minutes earlier”.

My legs are already numb and I can’t feel them anymore……

Finally free of Lilia-san’s anger, I went back to meet up with everyone.

Everyone seems to have decided not to mention what happened with Lilia-san just now, as they greeted me quite normally.

[Miyama-sama…… Over here.]

[Lunamaria-san? What is this envelope?]

As soon as I came back, Lunamaria-san looked like she’s somewhat in a good mood as she held out an envelope to me, and when I received it, I tilted my head and looked inside…… And I found quite a bit of money in there.

[Well~~ I’ve earned quite an amount from Miyama-sama. I’m already in a state where I can’t stop smiling. And so, this is just an expression of what I’m feeling.]

[H- Huh……]

Apparently, Lunamaria-san, who bet all of her last month’s salary on me, won big, and that was why she already had that angelic smile on her face.

Seriously, this useless maid is…… If the dirt on Ein-san’s nail would be boiled and she was to drink it, would she get even a bit better?

But well, after responding to Lunamaria-san and moving my gaze away from her…… I found Fia-san sitting on a chair with her hanging down.

[Ummm, what’s wrong with Fia-san?]

[Miyama-kun…… Please leave her alone for now. Right now, Fia is facing the twilight phase of her life.]

[Huh?]

[……2000…… To have acquired 2000…… A monster……]

With an expression that somehow looks like she burned out, Fia-san muttered that I’m a monster. Confused from the sorrow on her face, I tried calling out to her to comfort her.

[……Ah, no, I only acquired that many thanks to Lillywood-san’s power, and I didn’t acquire that much.]

[Then…… How many did you collect before you met World King-sama?]

[……300-something.]

[……Please accept me as your disciple.]

[Why!?]

It seems that her mind is quite weak, and for some reason, Fia-san kneels into a dogeza and starts saying incomprehensible things.

Rei-san and I tried to console Fia-san as she’s in that state…… And after a while, she finally looks up and returns to her earlier posture.

Yep, I may have done it too much, in all sorts of ways.

I knew I should have asked them properly beforehand about the scores of the previous harvest festivals.

[Well, Kaito-san really just keeps surprising me in so many ways…… As expected, that would be the last one, right?]

[……Ah, no, that’s……]

[……Do you still have……]

Taking a sip of the tea Lunamaria-san had brewed for me, when I heard Lilia-san’s words about how she’s sincerely tired of the surprises, I thought of what was in my magic box.

That I had now a Fruit of the World Tree in my possession…… It’s easy to imagine what the situation would be like if I were to take it out here.

However, that doesn’t mean that I’m going to hide it now…… It’s just that I’m afraid of the consequences, mainly from Lilia-san……

I think about it for a moment and then, rather than put it off, I take the Fruit of the World Tree out of the magic box and place it on the table.

[What’s this?]

[It’s beautiful.]

Looking at the Fruit of the World Tree that looked like a transparent crystal, Kusunoki-san and Yuzuki-san tilted their heads in curiosity.

However, not only them, Lilia-san and Lunamaria-san also tilted their heads when they saw it.
