Vol 3 Chapter 4 (2/2)
Among Lione's [Red Lion] mercenary group, Mike is ranked right in the middle.
He was a dexterous person who can do almost any work.
This time, he was given the work of Ryouma's escort.
”Honestly, I never thought that we would stay at the Earl's house just like that...”
”Well... Thanks to that I felt creeped out by how they welcomed me...”
”Me as well... Though they did not send me some woman. The alcohol and food are not something that is usually served to the servants... And the bedroom was really great too.”
”You too huh?”
”Indeed, To be honest... I also feel creeped out by it.”
Hearing Mike’s words Ryouma nodded his head lightly and closes his eyes.
Both of them felt the same thing when they stayed at the Earl's mansion.
”I wonder, why did they go that far?”
After being silent for a while, Ryouma throw some questions toward Mike.
”Well, I don't have a smart head like young master or master Bolts after all...”
With those words as the beginning, Mike begins to speak about how he felt.
”I feel like they might want something from young master, or they want the young master to leave the city as fast as possible...”
”I want you to go out, but I don't want us to be hostile to each other huh? ... I guess that's possible.”
There's also the possibility that Lupis pulled some strings behind the scene.
For Lupis, she can't rest easy unless Ryouma has arrived at the peninsula after all.
It is easy to understand if she asked Earl Salzberg to let Ryouma enter Wortenia peninsula without any hindrance.
(Either way, what option do I have in response to all of this? ... I guess it's useless to think about this now. I need some information first. I should wait until Bolts and Genou presented their report first...)
”And to even provide such hospitality toward me a servant, that means...”
”There's something under the table huh...”
”Indeed...”
Mike agrees with Ryouma while nodded his head.
”By the way Mike! You didn't tell Laura and her sister about what had happened last night right?”
Ryouma switched the topic. At that time, since he doesn't know the intentions of the Earl, he has to do what he needs to do. But right now, the most important thing is to stop Mike blabbing his mouth.
Hearing Ryouma's question, Mike shows a stiff smile.
”Well, let's see... When I told them that young master is having fun last night... Uwaaah, those ladies immediately went into a fit of anger you know?”
Because of how underdeveloped this world civilization, s.e.xual activities are one of the few forms of entertainment that exist.
Of course, as a mercenary Ryouma also had experience going into the red light district.
(TLN: There you have it, Ryouma is not a virgin when he embrace the maid)
”Oi! Tell me the truth! I don't know why, but somehow I know that they are definitely going to kill me, you know?!”
Hearing Mike joking answer, Ryouma instinctively raise his voice.
”Well, isn't that obvious? Besides, the young master should have noticed those young ladies feeling right?”
Mike spoke those words as if he was an elder speaking with his son.
”W-Well, yeah...” n: wait,=”” what?=”” a=”” novel=”” mc=”” acknowledges=”” that=”” a=”” girl=”” has=”” feelings=”” for=”” him,=”” give=”” the=”” author=”” a=”” medal.=””>
Ryouma respond to him with a short answer.
There's no need to tell Mike in detail. Ryouma fully understands the sisters feelings.
”If that is the case, young master should understand, no? Those young ladies also want to be embraced by young master. That is those two’s deepest desire.”
After Ryouma was summoned into this world, he saved the two sisters. It's been over 8 months since then.
The three of them have acted together all the time. It is no surprise such emotions were born between them.
Ryouma himself was also aware that they are both women.
”I know that, but...”
”Did you feel bothered that one day you might leave them when you got back to your original world?”
Regarding his circ.u.mstance, Ryouma had already explained them to the [Red Lion] mercenaries.
It was because they had questioned him regarding Genou’s question if he was someone from ”hinomoto”
”Well... Yeah, that too... I think I might lack determination too...”
It was unusual for Ryouma to be vague with his words.
He understands that he can't go back to his original world, and his mind also understands that he will have to remain in this world. But, his heart can't accept it yet. He still unable to forget the friends and family he left in j.a.pan.
Although one can say that Ryouma is someone who's merciless, he is a human being too. It was natural for him to feel troubled with such feelings.
(To embrace those two... I need to be prepared... To stay in this world, together...)
If it was women who work in the nightlife business, then he does not have to feel bothered. Since money settled that.
But in case of the Marfisto sisters, they show affection toward Ryouma without expecting anything from him.
To embrace such women...
There's no way Ryouma would be able to return to his original world alone and leave them behind.
”Well... As the young master knight, I will say this... Since young master has accepted the territory, doesn’t that mean young master already decided what to do?”
”Well, since I've involved everyone... I can't really go back to my original world now...”
This was fate. If Ryouma left this world and went back to his original world, what's going to happen to Lione and the others?
(If there's a way for me to get back... I...)
He already has the answer. As well as Ryouma's resolution...
”Well, as young master’s knight I will also keep what happened last night a secret... But in exchange, buy me some drinks next time, deal?”
Mike said that while laughing.
”Fine, you can drink as much as you want!”
Mike changed the subject because he was being considerate toward Ryouma.
And Ryouma who knew that responded in kind.
(Everything is up to me huh?...)
