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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn18UESL3AN

Liliyn: 「Well then, isn’t about time we heard about you?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShR8lkNWIo
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFQuhmO9oj
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EVkzad0qi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLm1srmCs7u
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uzGKnMzcV
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoMifInXmR
Silva: 「In which case, please allow me.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVjrgGrvhf
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqeye79Zp9
Liliyn: 「...-tch, you already revived, huh.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheUT7zzTI8
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLTT2MsQ8g
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCBZbbyfwM
As she literally clicked her tongue, she unleashed words full of disgust.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1AasngOJF
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDMDIee2UN
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbRBw4bQmZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwv6kK0exm
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcZzj8vpho
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpPGIbAJKd
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g7dXQR0zI
Hiiro: 「More importantly, can I eat now? 」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTBpyUpM1p
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG64CHDUO9
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMx6EaAApj
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUQrmI4XC6
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jjJLWTTyx
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpsFgmx4Ou
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pAEpgxlmE
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DdWbcWQ3x
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAsEEVcjSv
Liliyn: 「Ahahahaha! I see, I see! He looks like such an interesting boy!」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtutzNn8z66
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC96HEaXzCi
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNL9ZV1U0y
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhA2wdiq9L
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCbFpEJ6tz
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88Nk05OCQW
Liliyn: 「Yosh, I guess we can continue as we eat. Silva, Shamoe.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvHPDfDx19
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2HgO8yTPz
Silva|Shamoe: 「「Yes, as you command.」」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZgFZLvoNn
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSagWAMQcJ
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGpeb2K0Fg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbMwSAUgHA
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cUecENYyp
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ906wrxGbhX
Liliyn: 「Now, let’s eat.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPfYOEyewT
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WuN4Heno5
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F5v8bLsjP
However, before she even spoke those words, Hiiro had begun to ceaselessly shove pieces of food down his mouth.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgQnV1VF61
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaunUlxe96P
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaYdEoPS57
Liliyn: 「...w-well, I guess it’s fine. It’s good to be able to enjoy it fully.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPASSaVcva
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VK5wbEJQ5
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgkkOoIG44
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wiTBDjUVA
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WtrNuairX
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9RQLiWKj0

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiphKt60QXU
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1jQto5Vxh
Liliyn gloated before she began to similarly bring food towards her mouth.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XOUM7sJn1
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEOJooauSM
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIHBnXP6xG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5XNttM2EZ
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hTr6ySDWn
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1Eles6aVg
Hiiro: 「Oi, aren't Jii-san and the maid gonna eat?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdjAW4cTFA
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZH7mK1BTzW
Lilliyn: 「Mu? You alright with that? This was made with the intention of thanking you, you know?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu1ePFvwXM
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBN72Ir31cE
Hiiro: 「Like you can talk. You’re also eating, aren’t you?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkxPk7KuCD
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SKDL6p7NL
Liliyn: 「Isn't that obvious? What the mansion owns is mine.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7xlvUGumq
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FbIvbWQbP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9cD5nrI7F
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHNKoGnfyw
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0Oii7Kymq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUufvEifTw
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpLeh6607A
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DQGI9RdTu
Liliyn: 「I see. Well, that’s how it is. You two, sit down.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKkddXqhZ6
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGhZ5fcaY0
Shamoe: 「B-but I-!?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEzqP5EHRL
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwUXRubdCC
Silva: 「Shamoe, the Master’s orders are?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fH03RjrvM
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkhNbnsQuT
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lweGUmmQ8
Silva posed a question to Shamoe.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqIMhoVnmr
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93A4UCC8ol
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vKE5d1xfC

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v7N2yhngp
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jcskclbdV

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAI2so97F6
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6zjSGL4Hv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKmiGHeuPr
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaITKiYRRTd
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouV4aKTnwY
Liliyn: 「But you’re a pretty unusual fellow, aren't ya?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb5e2NNrtv
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjYnUpnC9g
Hiiro: 「Nn?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygVFOYc9dT
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOePbNOj9Ii
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgdz3q9sc3
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3B8MugONA5
Hiiro: 「I could say the exact same back to you.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcXNBiiKFe
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMAISmjSGI
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgg3Y7OtgF
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyaJFa9dcZ
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18pueS81Nq
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mGOrqWmIz
Liliyn: 「Fun, if everyone eats together, isn't it more efficient?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAL9Ryz19G
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bMDgunzVk
Hiiro: 「Well, I guess there’s that. But don’t most people care about appearances?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfgO33gTzj
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoHCCf2vLc
Liliyn: 「This is my mansion. I don’t take crap from no-one.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTkfpOJOcr
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuCUhMRNjX
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamiqSUwB6P
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz5JQBMNSI
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP1xuUiYyE
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAocggMQxs
Hiiro: (Putting that aside, this fish is really good.)128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqyIOfV2NT
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01iJqqrHuq
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWujNJZ3ULk
Hiiro stared at the fish fillet pierced by his fork.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEollMVgrvC
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9FryS4LC4
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpEFcMj3BJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYEHnrEof3
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHPGvJ3LUR
Hiiro: 「I see. It’s certainly not bad. *hamu* *mogumogu*...what’s this?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k4eyuEjCE
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocfB8sMGo5
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSblNMsNmY2
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhltCzNzc1
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMiUtPTnNU
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjZ93knSGk

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJOjPOByxG
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexeZn0q99V
Hiiro felt that he noticed a word that he could not let pass by.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3iN37coPe
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnCuvgGP0b
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqG9DJksoi

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfWyGStJGQ
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsPTPFvScj
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuXFCSb9cn
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxPGRBtq5d
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSk5xID3KV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J0GuyNwqI
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxg2DlHoo2
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkB36WMZwhV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa4M8Sld8T
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRySMv4PtRH
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEhp6Bui2M
Silva: 「With that said, it is a fairly difficult recipe. Are you aware that 《Red Spheres》 will ignite upon reckless stimuli.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VMOof2lFv
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqRADxrZOR
Hiiro: 「Aa, as I fought some on my way here I know all too well.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMiJxX7SIM
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3kz5puHSV
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV0bPG9Qfp
Liliyn raised her eyebrows upon hearing Hiiro’s words. Of course, Hiiro did not notice.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCzSEvMHFG
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlozHozbtIS
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmVv6lG4hh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tD4EWzXf3
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmtfH7zguA
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcEfVHuFGy
Silva popped the 《Red Sphere》 into his mouth.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrEl7LJ4GG
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeX4pbh45Ly
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfe6grKse34
Silva: 「Nofofofofo! The flavor is so strong it would melt one’s palate!」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxStDZpXew
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr9zELTQk1
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEF8gRY3Qc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyUVSyUOuR
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdIROvbfL3
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer6u3Zgse6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifNY363xJY
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tGksQQ9TT
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KvmQ5m6mg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHqLkFCq8n
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsw9KvdRmq
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgmAfQXd9R
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7xwjNCt5Y
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdqhn6guyW
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAiUecFQJ3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHl1VfXrCST
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ7hPc3sbs
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xtSVqejWD
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgOEK2PJ7Y

Liliyn: 「Kukuku, by the way, Hiiro or whatever, I've heard that you’re not too shabby. How about it?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5nMQvQWfG
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd9RsJcMLm
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPtllbMJzw
Perhaps noticing Hiiro’s gaze, Liliyn spoke as she locked eyes with him.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3swjW5mFkM

Hiiro: 「How about what?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5ibvFjBzI
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypYdbOlck2
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9WwC2a5l6

Liliyn: 「In other words, you've come from beyond the 【Gloomy Grasslands】, correct?」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6WuvaKp0O
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE1fa8VGLU
Hiiro: 「That’s right.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaqhupUvZ9
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn5j1svKi2
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnoCWz20xT
Wondering what the hell she was trying to say, Hiiro scowled.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcwaAxkC3m
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmx1pyDA98
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbDBtrXXAv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7Apin1Rb3
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0nXZiOlet
Hiiro: 「...」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPwzB7CYvx

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6dzJj9TWB
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj28nVSfqQf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2aTMqkm0s
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPDbzY2jeG
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsHpksXlTU
Staring closely at Hiiro’s face, Liliyn snickered as she made a huge grin.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R4AqzU39G
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eKgGzaOoR
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBj3fDQzrF
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyXyiCr5TI
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwiZeQZLEO
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3cHiHfakJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcJRO91la2

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DCrJEPsIv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcf1CyCQEF
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaV2rmWD4P6
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKay46eHcQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALQOBUTLPf
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqs5FV9fRg
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMi4d2YBuN
It was as she had indicated. Hiiro began to gradually grow cornered.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpGDVjS8sU
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUbA7sQpCB
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Idpbzqv9z

128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5ZFTyIRTU
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrb14N1Gwa
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATYKf6zVpn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvoVcRf5WL
128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLwRdcQ2nT
Looking at Hiiro’s stern expression, Liliyn laughed as she was intrigued. She then began to speak.128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmDFjRoPih

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3gCDD8pQQ

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMeyjwXVig

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5zWew4nRX

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TuJboGSHM

Hiiro: 「...」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1QEr0EszX

Silva: 「However, I must also ask of you to engage in my Master’s discussion. I also wish to know the truth about you, the one who saved my life.」128Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKsjdsPR3q

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkKz1EJe5B

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHo4Rqhnyt

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dLfhzSyqw

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKpN1DZTkT

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWD9vajmIz

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBFxESt08q

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAlnEHPA8n

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