Chapter 44 (2/2)

Ritone’s fully recovered, and the «Copper Rank» Lilliput left.

「Well then, excuse me.」

「Hero-dono, I'm truly indebted to you. Rest a.s.sured, I will attempt to push Littlette towards you, but it will take some time.」

The «Copper Rank» Lilliput who came to see them off bowed his head apologetically.

Littlette had not left her room since then. She also had her meals in her room, but she didn't show her face.

「No... please don't scold her so much. The reason is that I also said something impolite to her.」

Ritone lowered his head apologetically as well.

「Then...」

「Please wait a minute!」

Right as Ritone was about to board the carriage, a high-pitched voice rang out.

From the entrance of the mansion, Littlette came out with a large bunch of baggage.

「What are you trying to pull, leaving without me?」

Littlette pinched Ritone cheeks with her pliers.

「It hurts, it hurts... Eh, didn't you not want to be my fiancé?」

「I don't wish to, but being proposed in front of the crowd by the savior of the «Copper Rank» Lilliput, how could I reject!? If I did, I would be called ungrateful for the rest of my life, it would be impossible to become a bride anywhere!」

Stating it with displeasure, she forced her way into the carriage. The «Copper Rank» Lilliput and va.s.sals looked at her with joy.

「Also, calling me a wicked woman who will destroy the world, it cannot be helped that I lost composure, don’t you think? For now, I will be by your side, carefully observing. If you turn out to be evil, I will cooperate with the hero and destroy you!」

A pair of pliers were clicked in intimidation.

「I-I understand… Then, it’s a pleasure having you.」

It was difficult to say whether or not Ritone had captured and obtained the two heroines.
