That afternoon.
Ayato finished his work.
Having finally come to an otherworld with a different style, Ayato decided to look around.
The Royal Capital.
Commercial District.
Elsa walked arm-in-arm with Ayato, occasionally pointing out things.
Behind them!
Meili, with dark circles under her eyes, kept yawning.
What had happened last night...
Now seemed like a dream.
Thinking back now.
It felt absurd.
It had gone on for so long.
It was just too, too promiscuous.
Sensing Meili's gaze, Elsa whispered in his ear, "Master, when will you eat Meili?"
"No. She's still too young."
"???"
Elsa's face was full of question marks.
What kind of answer was that?
Was that something you should say?
Ayato smiled. "What's with that look? I may be womanizing, but I'm not a scumbag."
"Eh." Elsa blinked and said, "Meili isn't that young. In this world, she's already old enough to marry."
"So Master doesn't need to have any scruples."
Ayato: "..."
His expression turned peculiar.
Good grief!
He could only say, as expected of another world.
But even so.
He wouldn't change his mind.
He had so many wings. Why rush?
As they were talking, a figure came towards them.
It was a young girl with blonde hair, wearing tight-fitting clothes.
So it was her.
Seeing this, Ayato's eyes lit up.
Lucky.
Running into a story character while shopping.
It seemed he would have another servant.
Whoosh!
They brushed past each other.
The corner of Felt's mouth curled into a smile.
"Hehe, with such a beauty on his arm, and dressed very finely, he's definitely rich."
Feeling the item in her bosom, she nodded to herself.
On the other side!
Elsa said excitedly, "Master, that thief dared to target you. I'll go kill her."
"No need. Let her be."
Ayato smiled. "You don't think I would have let her succeed if I didn't want to, do you?"
Elsa blinked and realized, "Come to think of it, she is a beautiful girl too."
"And, she doesn't seem like an ordinary thief."
That being the case, the other did seem to be Master's type.
"So, Master, do you want me to follow her?"
Elsa suggested.
As a qualified servant, one must have initiative and solve problems for Master.
"No need. Let's continue shopping."
Ayato shook his head.
Once he had set his sights on her, how could he let her get away?
"Great."
Elsa's eyes lit up, and she pointed at a shop in the distance.
"Master, that clothing store is very famous. Let's go there. I'll buy some more clothes."
"Oh, were the clothes you wore last night from there too?"
"Yes, yes, but this time, Master, you can help me choose."
"Great."
…
Twilight.
The Slums.
Inside a residential building.
"I didn't get much today, but at least there's this."
Felt took Ayato's wallet from her bosom and said with a grin, "A rich person's wallet is different. Even the wallet itself is a style I've never seen before."
"Let me see how many good things are inside."
As she spoke, Felt just opened the wallet and froze.
Inside!
Were all unfamiliar banknotes.
Were these things... money?
She was confused, as if she had lost all color.
Damn it.
That guy looked rich.
But his wallet was full of useless paper.
Sigh.
A whole day's work for nothing.
She sighed softly and was about to leave, to find some fat sheep before it got dark.
But after a few steps, she froze.
Hum!
Inside the room.
A dazzling light flickered.
A dark red magic circle spread from the wallet.
Seeing this!
Felt's pupils contracted, and she assumed a defensive posture.
Tap, tap, tap, tap!
Footsteps sounded, and three figures appeared.
"We meet again, Miss Thief."
Felt looked up, and the figures of one man and two women came into view.
"I-it's you?"
Her pupils contracted, and she turned to run without hesitation.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Breezes swirled around Felt's body, and her figure turned into a blur, shooting towards the door.
But!
Just as she reached the door, she felt her body sink, and she fell to the ground with a thud.
The reason was that a beam of magical power had wrapped around her leg without her knowing when.
"Damn it."
Felt gritted her teeth slightly, trying to break free with all her might, but she couldn't budge it in the slightest.
Then!
An invisible force pulled her.
Felt's body was involuntarily dragged before Ayato.
"Why are you running away as soon as you see me?"
Ayato said with a faint smile. "Weren't you the one who came up to me when you stole my wallet?"
