“I’ll be in your care from today.” 

 

During the day inside the mansion, at the branch office <Swallow’s Repayment>.

The girl who has the same uniform as Elza, Ena, joins the roster.

 

While bowing, she spoke in a rather polite manner.

 

However, the moment she lifts her head up, it’s back to her usual self.

 

“Aren’t you amazing Ryouta-san, to the point that you need two exclusive assistant. You happy? Hey, are you happy about it?” (Ena)

 

While getting close to me, she used her elbow to nudge my shoulder.

 

“I don’t know whether to be happy, but I still do not fully understand the situation yet……..” (Ryouta)

 

This morning, after I was done with breakfast, I wanted to leave to a dungeon when suddenly she visited.

Then she started saying “I’ll be in your care” and “Are you happy”, out of a sudden.

I don’t even know how to react at this point.

 

“Don’t you know? You were simply amazing yesterday.” (Ena)

“Yesterday……..? Aaah.” (Ryouta)

 

While smiling bitterly, I head towards Elza and bowed at a 90 degree angle.

 

“I’m sorry, you had a rough time yesterday, right?” (Ryouta)

“N-No, that’s not it.” (Elza)

“Nah you didn’t. In fact, you did a fantastic job as well. You should’ve seen her, she was drowning in a sea of potatoes.” (Ena)
“No, I did inconvenienced her, physically speaking.” (Ryouta)

 

While feeling bad, I bowed down once again.

 

“Since we needed to help Elza, I came from the main branch to sort things out for her. You know, everyone was shocked that their mouths were open when they heard about it. I was impressed that only Ryouta-san could do such a thing that I sighed and ascended into heaven.” (Ena)

 

What the heck is with that last sentence! Well she’s just exaggerating as usual.

 

“So is it confirmed that you’re gonna be helping Elza out?” (Ryouta)

“Well, we did have a talk about adding another person to help her out previously.” (Ena)

 

Then, Ena winked at me and “Eh~” me.

She never changed huh.

 

“Is that so?” (Ryouta)

“Even though Elza alone is enough to do the job at a daily basis, but look at what you did Ryouta-san, now she can’t handle that much you know?” (Ena)

“Aah…….you’re right.” (Ryouta)

 

Since I’m reflecting on what I’ve done, I can only bitterly smile and nod at what she’s saying.

Yes, I have many non-daily events.

 

Whenever there’s something happening, I would dive straight in. Whatever request from Cell, I’ll do it, or when there are people in need, I would go and help them.

 

So as what Ena has said, I do a lot of odd jobs.

 

“And that’s why. When this kind of thing were to happen, we need another person to come and handle things as well. Just like what has happened yesterday.” (Ena)

 

I bitterly smiled again.

 

Within seconds, I sent in tens of kilos of potatoes to the mansion, like winning a jackpot on a slot machine, where the coins be rolling out like crazy.

 

Imagining it makes me a little happy.

 

“So, I’ll be joining the party as of today.” (Ena)

“I see, but then, why must it be Ena?” (Ryouta)

“Eh?” (Ryouta)

 

Ena was seriously shocked at what I asked.

 

“Since I’m always sent to various places whenever something happens, so I’m always moving around a lot.” (Ryouta)

“Uhmm, well…I wonder~.” (Ena)

 

For some reason Ena couldn’t say anything, and averted her eyes away from me.

Thinking that it was strange, I pushed on further.

 

“I think that <Swallow’s Repayment> is a rather large company, so isn’t it strange that they specifically sent you to help me?” (Ryouta)

“T-That is…..that…..you know.” (Ena)

“Hm?” (Ryouta)

 

I further inquired, and it was hard for her to respond.

 

“R-Right, that’s because you’ve always been helping out my family.” (Ena)

 

It’s as though she suddenly thought up of an excuse to say.

I see, it’s alright even if I don’t know.

 

“What’s more——” (Ena)

 

She suddenly spoke again, and her stuttered self vanished.

She suddenly smiled devilishly.

 

“Since I’ve met you many times before, it’s easier for you to have someone familiar to handle things right.” (Ena)

“That’s true.” (Ryouta)

 

As someone who I know besides Elza in <Swallow’s Repayment>, that person would be Ena.

If you think about it, she is suitable for the job as she’s a friend of Elza as well.

 

‘Hey …Stop lying already Ena.’ (Elza)

“Huh? What did you just say Elza?” (Ryouta)

“Uhh, nothing at all.” (Elza)

“I see?” (Ryouta)

 

Well, if it’s nothing then that’s great.

Well then………If that’s the case.

I went to the entrance of the branch office and shouted.

 

“Emily~ Are you there~” (Ryouta)

 

After calling out, I heard a cute “I’m here desu~~~”, then soon after a pitter-patter sound coming closer.

 

“Hey, what do you mean by me lying.” (Ena)

“A liar’s a liar. I know it.” (Elza)

“W-What are you even saying.” (Ena)

“I don’t like the way you’re tricking him. Even though I don’t blame you.” (Elza)

“……It’s subtle. But I guess you’re right.” (Ena)

“……Un, I got it.” (Elza)

 

Elza and Ena were both talking behind me, and I guess they’re done talking.

Since they’re friends, I’m sure they’re just catching up on some stuff, so I didn’t pay much attention to what they’re saying.

 

After awhile, Emily arrived, and I asked her to prepare a room for Ena.

It’s important to give her her own personal space after all.

 

“Oh right, Ena, can you wait here for a while?” (Ena)

“Hm? That’s okay, but what’s up?” (Ena)

“Just wait and see.” (Ryouta)

 

I asked her to wait for a moment, and I dashed out of the office.

Going down to the basement, I used the Drop Bullet to get myself another Golden Key.

 

Then returning back to the office, I handed Ena the key who was making a fox like expression.

 

“Here you go.” (Ryouta)

“This is?” (Ena)

“I’ll explain to you later, but think of it as a master key of some sort.” (Ryouta)

“Aah, okay…..” (Ena)

 

For some reason, her face was slightly red and confused.

 

“I can’t believe it leveled up from here.” (Elza)

 

Elza looked amazed from the side.
