Riot Grasper

2nd Volume, 13th Chapter The Rolled off Candy 3rd Part

After I had cleared my mind, we visited the lords mansion once again. Logins-san met us the same way as last time. Greeting the guards, that is.

Although Marita seemed to have informed the lord, he was not able to meet us most likely due to the pressure of work.

Nevertheless, Marita seemed to respect her father a lot.

To the extent of saying It was nice of Father to concede the throne to Uncle Hardin even though he [her father] had the calibre of a king

Well, he must have his reasons.

Now that Lim and Marita were playing in the garden which was enclosed within the mansion, Logins-san and I were the only two left in the room.

Thus, I was calmly gazing at the silhouettes of two girls playing with each other It might be thought of badly So, when Maid-san brought the seconds of black tea, it was a good timing to get the conversation rolling.

Logins-san, have you really been working here for a decade?

Yes, I have been under their care for a very long time.

Then, is your family in Merville?

No, I have neither a wife nor kids.

Frankly speaking, there are many amongst us maids who yearn for Logins-san.

The one who cut into the conversation with a grin was Maid-san.

I see. An unmarried old man who had refined manners, had outstanding abilities, had a job would be popular amongst young maids even though their ages were miles apart

She put quite an emphasis on us (Translators note: He said, she put quite an emphasis on watashi-tachi. where watashi means I and tachi is a pluralizing suffix. Combined, it means we)

Carrying hopes of chancing upon the same luck as Phylia-sama, us maids exert ourselves at work

Vun Im merely a poor decrepit

No, no. What matters is unmarried and job-holder dont you think?

By the way, about Phylia-sama mentioned just now Wasnt it the name of Maritas mother? Maid?

Excuse me, was Phylia-san a maid?

Yes, but I have been working here for four years, so I have only heard of the story. Originally, Phylia-sama worked at this mansion as a maid. Albert, who fell in love with her at first sight, married her.

It was indeed a fairytale to maids.

Its common for nobles to make a move on maids for the sake of playing around However, Albert-sama had no intention of remarrying after Phylia-samas death because he truly loved her

Maid-san talked about love with fascinated eyes.

The eyes that were locked on Logins-san.

There is absolutely no doubt about that. By the way, in my opinion A woman who does her work diligently is amazing

! Well then, Ill have you excuse me. I have still a lot of work to do. Please dont think that Im passing time. Well then

Instantly, Maid-san left the room.

Can I have such a charm

As a person?

Fumu. Although he cherishes Marita so much so that he is overprotective of her, it might only be a fragment of how much he cherished Phylia-san.

On the way back from the lords mansionI nodded upon witnessing the white flower which Lim, who was next to me, was holding gladly in her hand.

That is?

The dining area would certainly look brilliant if it were decorated.

!

Lim, watch out in front of you!

Eh? Ah

*The sound of people colliding*

At the same time, something which the one who Lim bumped into was carrying rolled off onto the ground.

Quickly, I tried to pick it back up and apologize. However

Hey, hey. Who are you bumping into? Sis Rei is so scary~ if you dont pay damages in fullit hurts!

You Why are you doing something so conspicuous? Come here so I can beat you!

Actually, you are already beating him.

The classicalcontewas presented by the woman who collided with Lim and the man who was next to her.

Both of them had black hair and black eyes It was a pair that gave off an asian chic impression

Their faces were exactly the same twins? Both of them had the same attractive face. Now in case of the woman, it induced a healing effect. However, in case of the man, it evoked envy.

I should not observe such things. First, I must apologize

Sorry.

Im sorry.

When we expressed words of apology, the woman held her raised hand back.

No, its fine. It was just a candy, which I liked a little, that dropped. Its not much. Theres no need to pay compensation either.

Sis Rei, cant you still eat it after brushing the dust off?

Shut up. Why dont you eat it yourself?

From a distance, someone could be heard calling the man out.

Ah We have some business to take care of. Well then

And then, the twins (presumably) mingled into the crowd in quick strides until they couldnt be seen anymore.

If you dont pay attention in front of you, it will be dangerous.

Un Sorry

Even though she was dispirited, she didnt let the Phylia flower drop as she continued to hold it firmly.

Well, its great that the flower is safe n?

What happened?

I picked the candy, which the female twin had dropped, up.

Where have I seen it before?

Aah, it was the same candy as the one I received earlier from Doorey-san.

According to him, it was a specialty product of some village.

It was quite tasty, but it was now covered in dust, so it couldnt be eaten. How unfortunate.

Although it was wasteful, I directed my consciousness to my palm and invoked Fire Magic.

The candy, that had turned to mush inside a small ball of fire, disappeared as if evaporated.

Lets head back home, Lim?
