Chapter 112 It Seems that She Got that Information from Somewhere (1/2)

After I finished telling them my story, Lilia-san puts down the cup of tea she was drinking and exhales.

[……I see, so let me get this straight, Kaito-san was going to have a meal together with this Alice-san person…… but ended up going to the monster racetrack in the Archlesia Empire…… where you earned over 400 white gold coins…… and happened to buy the Behemoth…… And afterward, you were invited to the royal castle of Archlesia Empire as a guest of honor.]

[Y- Yes.]

[……Ahhh, my head hurts…… Luna, it seems like my hangover is getting worse. I understood what the words mean, but it’s like my head is completely denying to understand it……]

[No, I’m afraid that headache is from something else.]

Lilia-san holds her head in her hands as she looks down.

Indeed, even when I’m the one who told that, I also couldn’t believe it…… We were supposed to just be going to eat yesterday, but before I knew it, lots of things suddenly happened.

[……I’ve had enough…… Kaito-san’s scary……]

[My Lady. It may have turned big, but I doubt he intends to do that himself…… Anyway, Miyama-sama.]

[Yes?]

[I think I heard that there’s a game that spread from the world Miyama-sama is from……]

[A game? What is it?]

[Yes, it’s that game called “lottery”. You should come with me next time.]

[……oi, Luna.]

How should I say this… Lunamaria-san is still acting as she usually is.

Surprisingly, I think this person would closely get along with Alice, in the sense that both of them are no-good people……

[Anyway, Lilia-san. Can I request this of you? Can you put Bell’s matter aside? Of course, I’ll pay for his food and other stuff.]

[……Hmmm. Indeed, that child was quite attached to Kaito-san, and I don’t think he would be a danger but…… However……]

[Isn’t it fine, My Lady?]

[Luna!?]

When it comes to Behemoths that are even called legendary magical beasts, as expected, even Lilia-san wouldn’t give her permission immediately.

Anyway, I need to sincerely request her that…… is what I thought, but an expected covering fire flew out of nowhere.

[If it’s Miyama-sama, he should be able to take good care of it. And even if you were to refuse, you can’t just throw out the Behemoth in the middle of nowhere and hope it doesn’t know the way home, right?]

[That’s certainly true but……]

[Fortunately, it’s still a baby, so it wouldn’t grow to be so enormous in a few years or decades.]

[……That certainly is the case. Alright…… Kaito-san, you would have him sleep in the stables for the meantime, but we’ll have an exclusive shed for him in the future.]

[Thank you very much!]

[However, I have one condition.]

[A condition?]

With Lunamaria-san’s help, Lilia-san finally allowed me to keep Bell.

As I said my thanks, Lilia-san has a wry smile on her face when she told me that she has a condition.

[……Bellfreed’s food and the cost for the construction of his shed…… I’ll be the one paying for it.]

[Eh? No, but……]

[I won’t yield on this one…… Let me return the favors every once in a while.]

[Return the favors?]

Hearing Lilia-san’s words, I significantly tilted my head.

Lilia-san returning favors to me? Isn’t it the other way around? If someone has favors to pay, it should be me since I’ve always been in her care. Even though I always brought her troubles……

[……I’m grateful to you, Kaito-san. Thanks to Kaito-san, I…… the two goals I promised myself when I received my peerage…… I’ve come closer to making them happen.]

[Eh?]
