"Maze City?"
Tiru was bringing out the tea when she heard the host say this.
Today, the owners, Rey and Emily, went out to play, which kept her thinking about them, and she couldn't calm down while practicing.
This feeling was indeed jealousy, but the reason that made her unable to calm down was that the woman who went out with her master was Emily.
Ever since Emily said bad things about Rey, although she didn't show it, she actually hated Emily.
Coupled with the fact that he threatened his master with his own life, it is even more unforgivable.
Returning to the current topic, Rey brought up the topic of going to Labyrinth City shortly after sitting down.
She never questioned Rey's proposal. The only thing she had doubts about was that she didn't know what kind of place it was.
"Well, that's right. You will understand when you get there. We have to move out in two days at most; otherwise, there may be a lot of trouble coming to our door."
Rey had a troubled expression as he told the story.
What he did this time will probably make everyone in the city know that it is good to have the reputation reversed, but it also means that he will receive a lot of attention.
Leaving quietly is the best choice.
Seeing his appearance, Tilu wanted to deal with all the so-called troubles.
Ah, no, it seems that her desire for blood is getting stronger and stronger, and she is prone to violent behavior from time to time.
Tonight may be the limit. Tilu's eyes flashed with blood.
Letis hesitated for a while and then said, "Is the labyrinth city a place with underground cities?"
Hearing what she said, Rey smiled and said, "It seems you understand it. I thought so when I first heard it. In fact, it is really like that."
Seeing that Letis suddenly understood something and was chatting happily with Rey, Tiru puffed up her cheeks slightly.
She quite liked Lettice, but there was something strange about her.
Rey and Lettice occasionally have a sense of understanding that only the two of them understand, making it difficult for her to integrate and understand.
Tilu stood behind Rey and thought for a moment, "Master, let me massage it for you."
Rey was a little surprised. "Then I'll trouble you."
She does this for a reason.
Tilu is very sensitive to the smell of blood. She knows that Rey goes out to hunt monsters every day to increase his strength.
Today, the smell was even stronger. Even if he cleaned it as soon as he came back, it wouldn't be completely eliminated. She wanted to share the pressure with him.
But her strength is not enough. Her combat power has increased rapidly, but she is still not as good as her master.
Tilu put her hands on Rey's shoulders and looked at the exposed neck. She tried hard to suppress her excitement and impulse.
She suddenly hated those damn monsters, which made her unable to smell the familiar scent of her master.
If, if we could get closer.
Tilu blushed slightly, her heart pounding.
Swallow.
"Tilu."
"...Ah, what's the matter, Master?"
Tiru responded with a voice that was a few degrees higher in pitch.
She was a little worried about whether her thoughts had been seen through.
Rey didn't think too much and just said, "You should pack the things you need to take away in advance so that you can leave at any time."
"I see."
······
Emily was cleaning the vase; she had had enough of these damn vases.
The more she breaks, the longer she has to work every day, and the longer she works, the more vases she will break.
This was a punishment mission that the person with a bad personality came up with for her. She originally thought that if Rey lost money, he would give up.
As a result, the vase he bought with his own property was broken by her, but he was still very happy?
I originally thought that the number of vases was decreasing, but Rey packed a lot more in bags...
After the two of them came back just now, Emily thought that her life here was coming to an end, and she didn't know what her fate would be tomorrow, so she sighed.
Rey asked her, Are you bored?
She replied, "Okay."
Fortunately, I went to clean the vase.
So she started doing her daily special work. It was obviously the last day, but Rey didn't even think of letting her take a full day's rest?
"asshole."
As soon as she finished speaking, Emily's expression changed. "Sir Rey, you are so great."
This damn punishment!
Well, Emily noticed that there seemed to be someone else beside her.
It was Lettice who came to Emily to ask for advice on magic and skills.
Looking carefully, her eyes seemed to be a little distracted. "So, does Miss Emily have that kind of relationship with Brother Rey?"
Privately, Lettice calls Rey her older brother more often.
But that's not the problem.
Emily's expression was a little stiff. "If I say no, will you believe it?"
No need to answer; Lettice's surprised look already explained her answer.
Emily couldn't tell the pain. She was like Lettice's teacher. She had always been a majestic figure, but she was misunderstood about her relationship with Rey.
But it was hard for her to say that she had been given an order and had no choice but to say something like that.
She didn't know that her identity as a slave had been exposed to Lettice by Tilu.
"Anyway, it's not what you think."
A statement without explanation is a bit pale.
······
Before dinner, two unexpected visitors came to the house.
Maxin and Roger, junior magicians among adventurers.
Maxin greeted Rey happily, while Rogge lowered his head and said nothing.
They come with the simple purpose of soliciting and apologizing.
The two of them belong to a C-level adventurer team. The leader is a B-level adventurer and a senior magician. There are a dozen people in the team.
That B-level adventurer is Maxine's father, so Maxine can make a decision in advance. As long as Rey agrees, he can join the team immediately.
As for the apology, it was because Rogge took advantage of it and offended Rey.
Hearing that Rey defeated a C-class monster as a junior magician, he couldn't believe it with 10 or even 9 points.
In his opinion, Rey even defeated him with a sneak attack. Could it be possible that Rey could have created a myth even if he surpassed the level? He would not dare to make up the story like this.
But due to pressure from Maxine, he had to come over.
"You said you were operating in Labyrinth City?"
Hearing Rey ask this, Maxin felt like she had seized the opportunity. "How about that very profitable place? Do you have any ideas?"
Rey hadn't decided yet whether to act alone or with a team, so he didn't agree immediately. "That's a coincidence; I happened to be planning to go there."
Before Maxin could say anything, Rogge snorted coldly, "It's a coincidence. I hired you, and you happened to be going there. We work in the devil's world. Do you happen to be going there as well?"
Maxin's expression changed. "Roger, I asked you to apologize. Don't go too far."
Rogge said reluctantly, "It turns out that it happened to be such a coincidence when he heard that your father was a high-level magician. Who would believe it? The poor people in this small town have probably never seen even an intermediate magician."
Maxin first apologized to Rey. She had seen the latter kill a C-class monster that was stronger than an intermediate magician. His growth was limitless; how could he care about a mere intermediate magician?
If you have to make a choice.
Maxin let out a breath and then said to Rogge, "Since you have no sincerity in apologizing, then leave."
Rogge glanced at the two of them fiercely, then looked at Maxin and said, "My father is a hero in the team. I just don't want this man to ruin the order of our team. You actually help him? You give me Remembered."
He looked at Rey again. "You're just a junior magician. Labyrinth City is not a place you can come to. If something unexpected happens, don't blame others."
After saying that, he left.
