Chapter 164: I have a fever! (1/2)

”Big Bro, Big Sis, please don't bring us to the orphanage,” with worries in their eyes, the two kids said their, please.

”Ah, no no no! We won't go there,” Rea said. She was thinking that these two must have had a bad experience there for them to be so afraid to go there. Or maybe they heard some bad rumors about the orphanage.

”By the way, where are your parents?” Seeing that the first thing they worried about was to be sent to the orphanage, these two must be orphans. But Rea had to ask somehow.

”W-We don't have any… they passed away (Hic!) when they tried to protect us from some bad people,” the girl kid said with tears.

”Ah—eh...erm…!” Rea was flustered. She wasn't an expert in dealing with kids! She glanced at the person beside her but the person was seemingly gazing into something. She noticed that he was staring at the kid's chest part.

'This idiot!'

”Hey! Are you into kids?!” Her question alarmed him and thought, 'what is this girl talking about?'

He noticed that he was staring into the kid's chest. But it wasn't like he liked their chest. In truth, he noticed something, like a tattoo, or is it an insignia? Thanks to the wind pressure, it made their tattered clothes flutter and had him take a glimpse at them.

The kids tightly hugged their bodies after hearing Rea's words, while warily looking at him like he was some kind of pedophile.

He immediately darted his eyes to her. ”That's impossible,” he said in a calm voice while scratching his face as he always does whenever he finds himself in an odd situation. At the same time, he showed a can't be helped face. A bead of sweat appeared at the back of his head.

He sighed.

Yman thought that he needed to clear this issue before it sullies his name and become a troublesome misunderstanding in the future. But even for him, this awkward situation wasn't easy to deal with. ”I'm into someone like Miss Rea,” he said while holding his bangs that were trying to block his eyes because of the wind.

But in Rea's point of view, he looks like he was purposely seducing her!

This the only solution he managed to find in his mind to divert the issue. But after saying it, Rea immediately turned bashful, and fumes coming out on top of her head.

”Wha-Wha-Wha-whaaaa!!!” She shouted like a broken robot.

”!!”

He heard his partner's voice.

'Ehh? What do you mean?'

'What?' Yman was late to realize.

His mouth was hung open upon realizing he just made a blunder of himself.

Beads of sweats coming out on the back of his head as he was thinking of how to deal with this another troublesome misunderstanding.

Rea was on the verge of collapse. Her mind was in a mess!

An idea came to his mind, ”I mean, I admired girls as beautiful as Miss Rea,” he added so he wouldn't sound like he specifically meant her from his words earlier and telling her that he liked beautiful girls in general.

For some reason, he heard Sistela's disappointed voice while seemingly shaking her head. She sounded like a grown-up woman though.

Right after he heard his Deity's words,

”What a discontent person, I can't believe that you already thought of adding another woman even before I accepted you as my lover!”

”Ehhh?” Yamn was taken aback. 'How come it turned out like this?' He thought.

She shouted angrily at him while raising her brows. Her eyes were exuding fire and her face was as red as a tomato.

In his eyes, she looks like a certain person when she thought he had a relationship with her friend at that time when they went into the smithing shop.

Yman realized that the situation became messier. Whatever he would say just added to the mess.

'Uhm, My Deity, what should I do?!' He finally asked for guidance from his partner.

'She sounded like a lawyer,' he thought.

”Oh-uhm, Big sis, where… are we going?”

Rea's over-thinkingstopped when they heard the girl kid.

”Ah— ah, I- I have a farm in the Sunshine Village. Do you want to work with me?”

”Eh? Wasn't that against the law?” Crimson said with doubt.

”Ah? No no no, I won't give them heavy jobs. Just help my people feeding the chickens and such.”

”Hm,” Crimson pondered. ”Do you have a free barn or stable?” He asked.

”Mhm! They can stay there,” Rea said while glancing at the kids.
