Chapter 704: Lets Have a Heartwarming Party ⑥ (1/2)

While Kaito left for the royal castle, a couple was currently holding their heads in a room in Kaito's mansion.

They were Akari, Kaito's mother, and Kazuya, his father. They were currently looking at a large bag on the table in front of the chair they were sitting on.

[……Hey, Mom? How much was this again?]

[He said there was about 200,000R in it……]

[1 R…… is about 100 yen, right?]

[That's right.]

[………………..]

[………………..]

In the bag in front of them, there was money that Kaito handed to them, saying ”Use this for shopping”. Since white gold coins couldn't be used unless you're buying from a very high-class store, the bag contains a mixture of various coins…… but the total amount of money within the bag was 200,000R…… which is approximately 20 million yen.

[……What do you think?]

[My Kaito…… has become too amazing.]

[……Isn't he?]

Hearing Kazuya's words, Akari felt as if her beloved son had become so high that she wasn't able to reach him anymore.

[As expected, I think staying in a situation like this is good…… being allowed to live in the house my son built, and my son gave me allowance…… A- As expected, I can't endure this unbearable feeling anymore.]

[I understand. I also feel like doing something.]

[Do you still want to do housework…… helping that Illness-san around the house?]

[……I can't, she is…… That being is the God of Housework, I'm telling you. If I help her, I'll just get in the way and end up causing her more work.]

Yes, what the both of them were worried about was their current treatment. First of all, the current Kaito has become an extremely wealthy man by Akari and Kazuya's standards.

Honestly speaking, they felt that even if they don't work, Kaito would let them live in the mansion without worries and would give them money if they want.

However, for Akari and Kazuya, who were still young, it was unpleasant to be in the care of their son for everything. But that unpleasantness didn't stop them from coming up with a good idea, so they left the room together and headed to the garden for a change of pace.

As they walked down the wide corridor, they saw a familiar figure ahead of them.

[Oya? Akari-dono and Kazuya-dono…… You both don't seem to be cheerful, is something the matter?]

[……Anima-chan.]

[……Actually……]

The one they met was Anima, who served as Kaito's Chief Retainer and was the person settling the matters in Kaito's home. Of course, Akari and Kazuya had already met her, and their impression of her was that she was ”Kaito's trusted faithful retainer”.

As they were Kaito's parents, Anima also treated Akari and Kazuya with respect, and from the couple's perspective, she was someone they could easily consult with.

Therefore, they decided to talk to Anima about what they had been thinking about earlier.

After listening to both of them, Anima brought her hand on her chin and looking as if she thought about it, she spoke.

[……I see, I understand what you're talking about. However, it's difficult for us to fulfill your wishes under the current circumstances.]

[Uuuuu, I guess that really was the case huh?]

Even after they discussed this matter between the two of them, they weren't able to come up with a good idea, so Anima's answer was as expected. Coming upon such a realization, Akari's shoulders lightly slumped.
