Chapter 67: The Devious Girl - Liliyn
After a while, the maid had slightly calmed down, allowing Hiiro to elicit her name. Shamoe Arneil. That was her name. If she were to remain silent, she would undoubtedly be a pretty girl, despite the freckles on her cheeks. However, as she stutters throughout her speech and often trips over nothing, she was practically the definition of a clumsy girl.128Please respect copyright.PENANAfOBgIwU5X2
128Please respect copyright.PENANA3T6V3sJtMF
128Please respect copyright.PENANAHHRSYdLlke
Liliyn: 「Well then, isn’t about time we heard about you?」128Please respect copyright.PENANANvfAgqRy4Q
128Please respect copyright.PENANAaMC7uyEP3F
128Please respect copyright.PENANAg4OtNG2vbJ
Liliyn’s eyes sparkled with intrigue as she stared at Hiiro. However, Silva, who had imperceptibly revived, lowered his head as he respectfully bowed.128Please respect copyright.PENANASDiXj5UNDo
128Please respect copyright.PENANAVBUChOBnba
128Please respect copyright.PENANADjhG9FSrnO
Silva: 「In which case, please allow me.」128Please respect copyright.PENANA7tA9YCiefN
128Please respect copyright.PENANAClSz1lWwBn
Liliyn: 「...-tch, you already revived, huh.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAaoDC4bjdVq
128Please respect copyright.PENANApIUwnlNvyM
128Please respect copyright.PENANABfGnmtEpEQ
As she literally clicked her tongue, she unleashed words full of disgust.128Please respect copyright.PENANACzckMVfGhY
128Please respect copyright.PENANAkjYsLdU9de
128Please respect copyright.PENANAa1h7zjYXEo
Silva: 「Nofofo, well then. The person before you is Hiiro Okamura-sama. He is the benefactor who saved my life at the entrance of the toxic 【Venom Mountain】.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAIxpC0h6By4
128Please respect copyright.PENANA8Kxyw82iwF
Liliyn: 「Fumu. I have heard this much from Shamoe. Hiiro or whatever, even if he is a pervert, he is my possession. I give you my thanks.」128Please respect copyright.PENANA6Plj2mvEkj
128Please respect copyright.PENANA5uGbJsKJfV
Hiiro: 「More importantly, can I eat now? 」128Please respect copyright.PENANArFpKvLHkNS
128Please respect copyright.PENANAunQCUpY0Gu
128Please respect copyright.PENANAh5IUkQVId4
No matter where he was, Hiiro was unwaveringly honest to his desires. As he had been forced to wait while a scrumptious meal had been prepared before him, Hiiro was at his limit. The only thing reflected in Hiiro’s eyes was the enticing cuisine laid about the tables.128Please respect copyright.PENANAYGzj7G6Z3m
128Please respect copyright.PENANAhcbgsAsqZy
128Please respect copyright.PENANA86NsKJmopp
Hearing Hiiro’s bluntness, Liliyn could only stare blankly while blinking several times. Her gaze shifted towards Silva. He simply nodded while faintly smiling. It was as if he were saying that the person before them was an intriguing individual.128Please respect copyright.PENANA2FjuDbeQRp
128Please respect copyright.PENANAN8MaXDsixg
128Please respect copyright.PENANAO2v5NXm0JW
Liliyn: 「Ahahahaha! I see, I see! He looks like such an interesting boy!」128Please respect copyright.PENANA4FiLUNYRST
128Please respect copyright.PENANAizvAXJIVnt
128Please respect copyright.PENANAvWMEqZGLM3
Although Hiiro would normally scowl at those words, as he was wrestling with hunger, he seemed to be in a half-crazed state.128Please respect copyright.PENANASERSdbBUzz
128Please respect copyright.PENANA2rxqLJuM90
128Please respect copyright.PENANAUgIM0iShZB
Liliyn: 「Yosh, I guess we can continue as we eat. Silva, Shamoe.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAaQyZnGmUwW
128Please respect copyright.PENANAvoqtM8kXM7
Silva|Shamoe: 「「Yes, as you command.」」128Please respect copyright.PENANA9vdrbcmNMS
128Please respect copyright.PENANABVTPRq2Wmy
128Please respect copyright.PENANAgllw9gfBEr
As expected, the two of them bowed. Following this, Shamoe approached Liliyn as she handed her a napkin. Silva, on the other hand, pulled out a chair immediately in front of Hiiro, as if trying to aid him. As Hiiro sat down, Liliyn began to speak.128Please respect copyright.PENANA7EUkTmfkqJ
128Please respect copyright.PENANAXtsdh2cQlZ
128Please respect copyright.PENANA2CEZteNNYc
Liliyn: 「Now, let’s eat.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAloGm4IZ5li
128Please respect copyright.PENANA52CaEpDoGB
128Please respect copyright.PENANAh4USnOKLNu
However, before she even spoke those words, Hiiro had begun to ceaselessly shove pieces of food down his mouth.128Please respect copyright.PENANA6KaGRAzFOt
128Please respect copyright.PENANAC8uhjRvMVQ
128Please respect copyright.PENANAtojNludUAF
Liliyn: 「...w-well, I guess it’s fine. It’s good to be able to enjoy it fully.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAMdvb8bQN5Y
128Please respect copyright.PENANArdD2JJKdi7
128Please respect copyright.PENANAJLbxb2GxsS
Although she was stunned, after seeing Hiiro stuffing his face, she faintly smiled. It seemed that the other two were overwhelmed as they observed Hiiro, however, Hiiro was absolutely oblivious to them.128Please respect copyright.PENANA5h4XOMQmMZ
128Please respect copyright.PENANAfXUUl4agCn
128Please respect copyright.PENANAo0GXj7Nz9c
Liliyn: (Kukuku, I get it.)128Please respect copyright.PENANA3KenxOHh0o
128Please respect copyright.PENANAB6EZOWdlcD
128Please respect copyright.PENANAG3JWDRLcFE
Liliyn gloated before she began to similarly bring food towards her mouth.128Please respect copyright.PENANAGi87uV0DNy
128Please respect copyright.PENANAe5vcnnu6RM
128Please respect copyright.PENANAuMPbAWJvm7
As Hiiro was smacking his lips, relishing in the buffet, he began to speak as he suddenly noticed something that concerned him.128Please respect copyright.PENANA1BEb7c0gJ2
128Please respect copyright.PENANAySakqHTZMl
128Please respect copyright.PENANAFXaRQzwUSZ
Hiiro: 「Oi, aren't Jii-san and the maid gonna eat?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAhPWdZ5hBIM
128Please respect copyright.PENANAc0bbdOHNcq
Lilliyn: 「Mu? You alright with that? This was made with the intention of thanking you, you know?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAZq9YfCRmPH
128Please respect copyright.PENANAbnzwTkgLWF
Hiiro: 「Like you can talk. You’re also eating, aren’t you?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAjsOVcFI5D9
128Please respect copyright.PENANAvb8nGTNgg1
Liliyn: 「Isn't that obvious? What the mansion owns is mine.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAe4lPseKWLI
128Please respect copyright.PENANAM2ptedNIUU
Hiiro: 「Fu~n. Well, not that I care, but there's a substantial amount of food. Even if they eat, shouldn't it be fine?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAbg07uBpj9B
128Please respect copyright.PENANAFuq2kTo48r
128Please respect copyright.PENANAH6Jj0veAM7
Since Silva’s stomach was howling earlier, there was a slight reluctance to continue eating should it be only the two of them.128Please respect copyright.PENANAltpnnLcSlL
128Please respect copyright.PENANA5M6PH2JRgh
128Please respect copyright.PENANApNYevm8MLb
Liliyn: 「I see. Well, that’s how it is. You two, sit down.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAE5cXbOuZmT
128Please respect copyright.PENANAePyJYuz10O
Shamoe: 「B-but I-!?」128Please respect copyright.PENANA3FyVMWDi6B
128Please respect copyright.PENANAkjQlNvUeSy
Silva: 「Shamoe, the Master’s orders are?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0ZUWVUKFH
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1Tx1S4XKgc
128Please respect copyright.PENANAtg5RWwg670
Silva posed a question to Shamoe.128Please respect copyright.PENANATvzLzw3VyW
128Please respect copyright.PENANAalCDqrjyv1
128Please respect copyright.PENANA8uZdhnpJfi
Shamoe: 「A...absolute.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAWYpw9zkPLR
128Please respect copyright.PENANAVfELz838p8
128Please respect copyright.PENANAc3pChGmHZ7
She sat down while shrinking her body.128Please respect copyright.PENANAoCOurnxABf
128Please respect copyright.PENANAWijBwybXvx
128Please respect copyright.PENANATJhOBvGDS4
Silva: 「Well then~, Itadakimasu zo~」128Please respect copyright.PENANAwoJtbV8rAI
128Please respect copyright.PENANA8RxcVvUpGE
128Please respect copyright.PENANABhmuxxDW0L
Silva emitted these words joyfully. Shamoe’s expression also seemed to somewhat soften as she took some bread and began to eat it.128Please respect copyright.PENANAjSjV0SGkYa
128Please respect copyright.PENANARlH3blR6UV
128Please respect copyright.PENANA2ECnAZZQhF
Liliyn: 「But you’re a pretty unusual fellow, aren't ya?」128Please respect copyright.PENANA2tf1fNQC4H
128Please respect copyright.PENANAM6Pku6YJrD
Hiiro: 「Nn?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAai6ke9cikO
128Please respect copyright.PENANA4e0xruCJ2a
Liliyn: 「You know that normally, people wouldn't let servants sit on the same table and allow them to have a meal together, right?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAe8cmDlwtFw
128Please respect copyright.PENANA2ti39exUmx
Hiiro: 「I could say the exact same back to you.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAk9JsNWc4f0
128Please respect copyright.PENANAPI8WDlW5rR
128Please respect copyright.PENANAE9MJJxysuT
Ultimately, Liliyn was the master of the mansion. Even so, she allowed her employees to share the same dining table with her with little resistance, something that was most uncommon. Therefore, it could be observed that rather than the guest, it was Liliyn who was the peculiar one.128Please respect copyright.PENANA66ekF0ST2R
128Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ko6yeypOA
128Please respect copyright.PENANA3H9RNsSulh
Liliyn: 「Fun, if everyone eats together, isn't it more efficient?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAGG3yoq2d47
128Please respect copyright.PENANArndprNbMxK
Hiiro: 「Well, I guess there’s that. But don’t most people care about appearances?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAnOtzUlsi5Q
128Please respect copyright.PENANAVOuXKfE1B1
Liliyn: 「This is my mansion. I don’t take crap from no-one.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAv6EUpZNGIe
128Please respect copyright.PENANAu345w3Wu71
128Please respect copyright.PENANA6izr71R16G
Apparently, the individual known as Liliyn prioritized her freedom, as opposed to those close-minded aristocrats that are stubbornly fixated on social status. Hiiro felt that such an attitude was appealing as he continued to fill his mouth with food.128Please respect copyright.PENANAdC7vmTeCqA
128Please respect copyright.PENANA0Qxmi6S2Kt
128Please respect copyright.PENANAcHH8IF9j8X
Hiiro: (Putting that aside, this fish is really good.)128Please respect copyright.PENANAz6qfOL1PvN
128Please respect copyright.PENANAMjHFI5cEJI
128Please respect copyright.PENANA6iWbB0GIPH
Hiiro stared at the fish fillet pierced by his fork.128Please respect copyright.PENANACcNLsRtTw7
128Please respect copyright.PENANAAZhHxYWvD8
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1QvU3pSSII
Silva: 「Nofofo, that is a fish that exclusively inhabits this lake, the 《Hammock》. It’s white meat is full of protein. If left to simmer until the meat has darkened, the flavor becomes even richer.」128Please respect copyright.PENANA5Qb2uiO0oS
128Please respect copyright.PENANAkvqxXaz8oP
Hiiro: 「I see. It’s certainly not bad. *hamu* *mogumogu*...what’s this?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAAN8FndnEMm
128Please respect copyright.PENANAS8MbC4Y86r
128Please respect copyright.PENANAldLqXPNUkC
Following this, he began to eat something resembling ham that was wrapped up with many layers, forming into a cylinder. Curious, he inquired its identity.128Please respect copyright.PENANAUZ1W7oCFPv
128Please respect copyright.PENANA3yghnQ0gnk
128Please respect copyright.PENANAXkHjJ6gb2s
Silva: 「Oh yes, those are 《Grand Slime Spring Rolls》.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAkP1TD2w9vm
128Please respect copyright.PENANAUFcCx4wc58
128Please respect copyright.PENANAAywFzjfK1Z
Hiiro: 「Gohho! Gohogohogoho! The hell’d you say!? 」128Please respect copyright.PENANAdcM7LeKf3r
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1EcXLyojqR
128Please respect copyright.PENANAKMZUiLTYTT
Hiiro felt that he noticed a word that he could not let pass by.128Please respect copyright.PENANAJrO3wKKilo
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1aNuXwwbwW
128Please respect copyright.PENANAL8ZgprFLpU
Silva: 「Indeed, those are 《Grand Slime Spring Rolls》.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAytN7nOXgl8
128Please respect copyright.PENANACXcT1LuESb
Hiiro: 「............」128Please respect copyright.PENANAFDP3fuLI5y
128Please respect copyright.PENANAxdGBsDegHM
128Please respect copyright.PENANA3PciwqItEA
It seemed that Hiiro was not mistaken. Upon inspection it was colored red and significantly resembled ham, even though it seemed slightly jelly-like. Also, according to Hiiro’s memory, Grand Slime’s should be colored green.128Please respect copyright.PENANAPKLvi3IhUD
128Please respect copyright.PENANAysCm8jJokw
128Please respect copyright.PENANA3tinvaInyC
Silva: 「Although most of the Grand Slime is inedible, a part that resides in its center, referred to as the 《Red Sphere》, is said to be a palatable delicacy.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAIkImqI0jm6
128Please respect copyright.PENANALIpvhuYedD
128Please respect copyright.PENANAp2AOar0VKo
It suddenly came to Hiiro that he remembered the Grand Slime possessing a red part that acted as its nucleus. He also had the feeling that upon attacking it, it would burst into flames.128Please respect copyright.PENANAfNGHVHvfUe
128Please respect copyright.PENANAUNtOo9bglF
128Please respect copyright.PENANAXmPQqNRnWn
Silva: 「With that said, it is a fairly difficult recipe. Are you aware that 《Red Spheres》 will ignite upon reckless stimuli.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAXy4m9ZSyDu
128Please respect copyright.PENANANC2ffOQ7Wo
Hiiro: 「Aa, as I fought some on my way here I know all too well.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAyH6j0UyGhg
128Please respect copyright.PENANACOr1OnwHjj
128Please respect copyright.PENANAwBqiDiToOO
Liliyn raised her eyebrows upon hearing Hiiro’s words. Of course, Hiiro did not notice.128Please respect copyright.PENANAlAYha6WK1g
128Please respect copyright.PENANABDoEsaMmig
128Please respect copyright.PENANAuid3uuqQnL
Silva: 「Is that so? To cook the 《Red Sphere》, it is necessary to braise it in boiling water for several hours. Once preparations are complete, you must apply a knife in a way that will not ignite the sphere. After which, the taste-」128Please respect copyright.PENANAcqFu0ekjtz
128Please respect copyright.PENANARAk9zdTx7A
128Please respect copyright.PENANAtzMTwXnubb
Silva popped the 《Red Sphere》 into his mouth.128Please respect copyright.PENANAqENFdeOQEH
128Please respect copyright.PENANA8OA8UHPUko
128Please respect copyright.PENANAlv1XLKBE6N
Silva: 「Nofofofofo! The flavor is so strong it would melt one’s palate!」128Please respect copyright.PENANAvOB7Q3E7zI
128Please respect copyright.PENANA6NKQbKr2jx
128Please respect copyright.PENANACCTatT3NHA
Hiiro followed suit and began to eat it. Although he was slightly concerned whether it would burst into flames, upon experience it’s aroma and flavor spreading throughout his mouth, his anxiety was completely dispelled.128Please respect copyright.PENANAJQDSbL6H4L
128Please respect copyright.PENANAUOjY2D54vR
128Please respect copyright.PENANACIaJsQjkXu
Hiiro: (This is pretty good. It’s so crunchy that I can’t believe it came from that over-sized slime. It’s as if I was eating cartilage. The more I chew, the more the rich flavor spreads.)128Please respect copyright.PENANAgfzcoewCVc
128Please respect copyright.PENANAFPxxbAoIEK
128Please respect copyright.PENANA3UswtJ4hII
Just as Hiiro thought that this would be perfect as a side dish with sake, the little girl before him brought out a wine bottle as she continued to eat the 《Red Sphere》.128Please respect copyright.PENANAHhxYhih2ky
128Please respect copyright.PENANAiJIbVaQHQD
128Please respect copyright.PENANA53nitHpd4k
Hiiro: (From what I've observed, the Chibi-Usagi seemed to be an exception but...are all little girls in this world alcoholics?)128Please respect copyright.PENANAkdZ0NTjGYv
128Please respect copyright.PENANAEm9TVHmzE4
128Please respect copyright.PENANAB87LODcpe8
Upon recollection, Chibi-Usagi was Arnold’s Shishou who went by the name of Rarashik. As she had the appearance of a five year old that seemed to constantly be holding onto liquor bottles, she seemed to registered as a fantasy figure in Hiiro’s eyes.128Please respect copyright.PENANAGXCRy0HBEh
128Please respect copyright.PENANAKrdtPT9Qa2
128Please respect copyright.PENANAowT0wd126m
However, as Liliyn was drinking out of a wine glass, it was a mystery as to why the scene seemed strangely picturesque. It seemed that she was quite accustomed to drinking.128Please respect copyright.PENANAiXKjh7aeFP
128Please respect copyright.PENANAj6VynZ00xt
128Please respect copyright.PENANAnzNuxOxFqT
Liliyn: 「Kukuku, by the way, Hiiro or whatever, I've heard that you’re not too shabby. How about it?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAW9ebCFz8nL
128Please respect copyright.PENANA73D4vuG5mT
128Please respect copyright.PENANAVWCQJvFAkd
Perhaps noticing Hiiro’s gaze, Liliyn spoke as she locked eyes with him.128Please respect copyright.PENANAPi9UuUfOoX
128Please respect copyright.PENANAW2Yt2im3kb
128Please respect copyright.PENANAj2chuJ5P3Z
Hiiro: 「How about what?」128Please respect copyright.PENANA1hYssWBqWQ
128Please respect copyright.PENANAg2ya6z4hnU
Liliyn: 「Don’t play dumb. From what I've seen, you’re of the 『Imp Race』, however, those guys usually act in herds. Well, I have heard that sometimes they move independently. Alright, let’s make it so you’re one of those solo Imps. However, you being in the mountains doesn't really make sense, right?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAgml0xjAjhj
128Please respect copyright.PENANAlGWHDjJPy1
Hiiro: 「...what doesn't?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAYC9Jqk4biI
128Please respect copyright.PENANAkGDhDRpbeB
Liliyn: 「Kukuku, didn't you say earlier that you fought Grand Slimes?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAL38vqWlDA4
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1miABK1Mll
Hiiro: 「Aa.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAeGygWGuHDc
128Please respect copyright.PENANAm4ebNdmgAw
Liliyn: 「In other words, you've come from beyond the 【Gloomy Grasslands】, correct?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAjXIkR9hJAI
128Please respect copyright.PENANAuVn6f6ZiCk
Hiiro: 「That’s right.」128Please respect copyright.PENANABh0eAmTuTm
128Please respect copyright.PENANAAvnPgg6DBs
128Please respect copyright.PENANA5eZBt1eRbb
Wondering what the hell she was trying to say, Hiiro scowled.128Please respect copyright.PENANAq0wXZXYTDm
128Please respect copyright.PENANARQCyzdHlgH
128Please respect copyright.PENANAFro19bTXmi
Liliyn: 「Certainly that is the Grand Slime’s habitat. However, it is a place where monsters of Rank S and above are plentiful. Following this, you crossed that mountain of poison and made it here.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAjOfDspsfm7
128Please respect copyright.PENANAgTud7xbA2U
Hiiro: 「...」128Please respect copyright.PENANAdsDytk7GH0
128Please respect copyright.PENANADyDHj5FMqT
Liliyn: 「You are quite remarkable. To be able to consume the 『Imp Race’s』 most despised food, the 《Red Sphere》.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAQo6GLJFxR5
128Please respect copyright.PENANATNFAU6SlB4
Hiiro: 「-!?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAOJBJAzjmob
128Please respect copyright.PENANAOtI0zInQB8
128Please respect copyright.PENANA9AyRcnH4Er
Hiiro involuntarily strained his face. Apparently, Liliyn had doubts about Hiiro’s identity. With that said, the conversation they just had was not necessarily true. As such, Hiiro could not afford to break his poker face.128Please respect copyright.PENANAoZVZnduTv9
128Please respect copyright.PENANAai6FH8r0RZ
128Please respect copyright.PENANAIplOJBdaYq
Staring closely at Hiiro’s face, Liliyn snickered as she made a huge grin.128Please respect copyright.PENANANZa8sAPoTI
128Please respect copyright.PENANAPDQbpOR3QZ
128Please respect copyright.PENANAE0PUgHW4LY
Liliyn: 「Aa. By the way, when I say despised, I’m not talking about simple preferences. When consumed, their bodies would reject it so much that it could be fatal...this is the level of loathing that I’m talking about.」128Please respect copyright.PENANA8ugq8BvTBg
128Please respect copyright.PENANAdg5AlxRDxR
128Please respect copyright.PENANA7DnVFvxi8G
This was bad. Although he was still unsure whether what she had said was true, if it was, his disguise of being one of the 『Imp Race』 would be revealed.128Please respect copyright.PENANAi4ogNK8JVC
128Please respect copyright.PENANAhVPiYpsXOY
128Please respect copyright.PENANAG483nsEXrZ
Hiiro: (Actually, why wasn't any of this mentioned in the book?! That fucking author!)128Please respect copyright.PENANAod61HKXtG9
128Please respect copyright.PENANAXnBFvl3diL
128Please respect copyright.PENANAWQGU2IHjxD
Although Hiiro had an extreme urge to burn that picture book, the problem right now was how he was going to survive in such a situation.128Please respect copyright.PENANA6SRrRJmIdx
128Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZLc8UZbbl
128Please respect copyright.PENANAR9InDpimCU
Liliyn: 「Yet, you nonchalantly popped that 《Red Sphere》 into your mouth. Actually, it is even weirder for you not to have known its existence. Even if you had some sort of resistance against it, to not know your race’s number one weakness is truly strange.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAbRwne1hpUp
128Please respect copyright.PENANAMSb7Xwkqmz
128Please respect copyright.PENANAc1l6SG27SF
It was as she had indicated. Hiiro began to gradually grow cornered.128Please respect copyright.PENANANLTro2xOCW
128Please respect copyright.PENANAee7OfsRLoe
128Please respect copyright.PENANAhBOETSopkt
Liliyn: 「Aa. And another thing, those 《Hammock》 are the 『Imp Race’s』 natural enemy.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAYPsam1KbGo
128Please respect copyright.PENANAYTN1D3mr5r
Hiiro: (This brat...)128Please respect copyright.PENANAMM8zGlxEbP
128Please respect copyright.PENANAlhsgINEttN
128Please respect copyright.PENANAnYR9vEkfvE
Hiiro realized that this entire meal was a trap. Glancing at the other two, Hiiro saw that, in contrast to Liliyn, they wore apologetic expressions. It seems that these two had apparently been aware of it.128Please respect copyright.PENANAriCl35BxXG
128Please respect copyright.PENANAYU42G5aI06
Hiiro clenched his hand into a fist. He quietly extended his forefinger, preparing himself so he could cast magic at any instant.128Please respect copyright.PENANAF3DmInDd4k
128Please respect copyright.PENANA4YGz6aVhhh
Looking at Hiiro’s stern expression, Liliyn laughed as she was intrigued. She then began to speak.128Please respect copyright.PENANAFSNVFTfPPB
128Please respect copyright.PENANAdEla5v8sjs
128Please respect copyright.PENANAUZMSq6T9wf
Liliyn: 「Kukuku, don’t misunderstand me. I don’t really care whether or not you are a part of the 『Imp Race』.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAeUDSZDF1gf
128Please respect copyright.PENANAXhQSnlhL8o
Hiiro: 「...?」128Please respect copyright.PENANABpMpdwiveY
128Please respect copyright.PENANAS9Bzcelr6x
Liliyn: 「You just simply piqued my interest. Why are you walking around in such an appearance...you’re not a part of the 『Imp Race』, right? Eeh? Unusual Visitor?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAeqSp7bzxJS
128Please respect copyright.PENANAgO7B80EJUc
128Please respect copyright.PENANACZ5PmUk9vn
Hiiro had remembered her using the phrase ‘Unusual Visitor’ when she greeted him. Then it suddenly clicked. Hiiro realized that ever since she met him, she had planned on satiating her curiosity.128Please respect copyright.PENANAH9O0rHqvYl
128Please respect copyright.PENANAoGzAv9RdjT
128Please respect copyright.PENANA1ip2VTQ6rD
Hiiro: 「Do I have any reason to tell you?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAhW14csCayD
128Please respect copyright.PENANAKXU4oc0KRG
Liliyn: 「Fumu. Certainly not. However, this is essentially the center of my stronghold(22). I don’t mind if I have to resort to...extreme measures?」128Please respect copyright.PENANAnF8QxGwycC
128Please respect copyright.PENANAA9zMJV1Wty
128Please respect copyright.PENANABGFcvu3cGW
Hiiro felt a certain stimulus in the back of his eyes. His throat involuntarily made a sound. Following which, Hiiro heard a hard cough *gohon*. He swerved around, the sight of Silva lowering his head entering Hiiro’s eyes.128Please respect copyright.PENANAqpUlgOThxH
128Please respect copyright.PENANAtsxyhLXuH3

Silva: 「In actuality, the 『Imp Race』 is a race that is extremely vulnerable to poison. Yet, as Hiiro headed towards that toxic mountain, you were undeniably calm. This is something that has bothered me quite a bit.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAMkbzJthjwg

It was at that moment that Hiiro suddenly remembered. Silva wore a desperate expression as he tried to prevent Hiiro from entering the mountain. This was most likely due to the fact that he thought Hiiro, being one of the 『Imp Race』, would surely lose his life.128Please respect copyright.PENANAlYq5rkqFrq

Silva: 「I had also wondered whether or not you were truly of the 『Imp Race』. It was most likely that my master had some misgivings about you due to your successful journey through the toxic mountain. Thus, she had prepared this elaborate investigation.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAhm5T7rY3Dd

However, in the event that Hiiro was really a member of the 『Imp Race』, then what would they do? Wouldn't he have died?128Please respect copyright.PENANA4rfGaGsrgw

Silva: 「However, please be at ease. As these dishes were prepared by professional hands, even if a member of the 『Imp Race』 were to consume them, their bodies would be in a condition capable of running as the severe pain coursing throughout their bodies would be slightly suppressed.」128Please respect copyright.PENANAP47qPUrTkQ

Hiiro: 「Wait, you said slightly but-」128Please respect copyright.PENANAUnC6g5fZbr

Hiiro interjected without thinking. Although it was good that he wouldn't die, he wanted to make the critique that they were perfectly fine with inflicting pain onto their benefactor.128Please respect copyright.PENANA0NdPjoVxdz

The trio’s eyes stared towards Hiiro’s direction. Although Hiiro remained silent for a short period of time, he rubbed his head as he began to spit out a big sigh.128Please respect copyright.PENANACluZdV2onn

Hiiro:「Aa, that's right. I'm not a part of the 『Imp Race』.」
