“I wonder . I won’t let you do it though . ”
“Hmmm, let’s just not do it . ”
“——-!”
The two beauties standing behind Neptune——Especially Ril, was staring at me with her eyebrows frowning, and puffing her cheeks .
Though I’m being sent death threats from their eyes, Neptune put a stop by raising his hands .
And just like how he is like, he smiled and spoke .
“Why is it you want to know . Would you be happy if I gave a reason?” (Neptune)
“I think if they don’t hear a reason from you, they would never give up . ” (Ryouta)
“Yeah, but my intentions are real this time around . ” (Neptune)
I sighed once .
“You don’t have anything to worry huh . ” (Ryouta)
“Must I worry about something?” (Neptune)
“It’s not that you have to……” (Ryouta)
Replying to me with such a serious face makes me worried even more .
Realistically speaking, it’s understandable based on his judgement, however……
I move around a lot in this world, especially when it comes to saving or helping people around .
I would help people who worked hard but gained nothing in return .

People who are being exploited .
Just looking at them reminds me of what I went through in the past, and I would automatically help them .
And based on that, there’s no need to help Neptune with his condition .
He’s not someone who’s being exploited, or being used .
More like he’s the opposite of those people .
That’s why I want to refuse his offer .
“You don’t have to worry about that . ” (Neptune)
“Why not?” (Ryouta)
“Because, I’m really in need . ” (Neptune)
Neptune answered, and used his usual secretive smile at me .
“Tennessine . ” was what he said .
“The 117 atomic number huh . ” (Ryouta)
“What’s that?” (Neptune)
“Ah don’t mind me …So a new dungeon has been born?” (Ryouta)
As I briefly said, Ril and Ran’s eyes widen, as if they’ve heard of something unimaginable .
Neptune didn’t act that way, but in return he smiled even more .
“Ahaha, as expected, you’re amazing beyond belief . It’s not even publicly announced yet, and I’m the only one who knows about this new dungeon . ” (Neptune)
“……… . ” (Ryouta)

I might’ve been careless on my part .
The 117 atomic number, Tennessine .
It’s the same with Nihonium, where the name is the same as the periodic table, so that’s how I got to know about it .
Since it’s common to know about these in our world, but for them it’s a name that hasn’t been heard of before, so it was careless on my part that they have such a reaction .
“I’m in charge of investigating that dungeon, similar to what I did for Nihonium . ” (Neptune)
“That’s awesome . ” (Ryouta)
“And, I’m having a pinch right this moment . Honestly, I can’t do it, because I’ve been cursed . And thus, I need you to help me, no, I want you to help me . ” (Neptune)
“Are you sure you’re in a pinch . ” (Ryouta)
“Yes, and honestly, you’re the only one who can help me . The only person in this world who is higher rank than me, is none other than you . ” (Neptune)
“………” (Ryouta)
I’m not sure whether he’s being real with me——and I don’t know his true intentions .
“You’re not fair . ” (Ryouta)
“Am I?” (Neptune)
Neptune acted innocent, so I thought maybe I can find some clues with his partners, but both Ril and Ran’s faces seemed, eloquent .
Ril had an angry face as if saying [If I don’t accept it, I’ll kill you], and Ran’s like [If Neptune can’t do it, then I can’t……] with a sad expression .
Both have their own worries .
And the person that they’re following is… . . being unfair .

“…… . Sigh, fine . ” (Ryouta)
“So you’re gonna accept it?” (Neptune)
“Yeah . ” (Ryouta)
“Thanks! Ril, Ran . ” (Neptune)
“I got it!” (Rin)
“Hmph… . . if only you’re done as you’re told . ” (Ran)
Both of them turned around in unison, and walked back from whence they came from .
“What are you going to do?” (Ryouta)
“They’re doing some preparations, and I will be spreading news about the Neptune family joining the Ryouta family . ” (Neptune)
“Is it even necessary?” (Ryouta)
“……Of course . ” (Neptune)
“Oi, what’s with the pause . ” (Ryouta)
Don’t tell me, those two were acting as well?
“Eeeh~, ahaha, oh come on . Since I’m in a pinch, can’t you be a buddy and help me out?” (Neptune)
“You’re so clear about it that I can’t even get angry about it!” (Ryouta)
I unknowingly retorted, but he returned it with a serious face instead .
“But I’m truly grateful… . for your help . ” (Neptune)
“………You, it’s so unfair that you’re being serious with me . ” (Ryouta)
Afterwards, Neptune said that he’ll come back once he’s done preparing, and left Nihonium .
Regaining my motive, I once again raised my Dex to B, then return to the mansion .
“Aaah, something terrible happened Ryoutsan . ”
“What’s up Ena?” (Ryouta)
“Outside, look outside right now!” (Ena)
“Outside?” (Ryouta)
Following her instructions, I looked through the window .
“My gosh! Who are these people…… . . there’s like a hundred plus of them!” (Ryouta)
“They’re all adventurers, adventurers that are under Neptune’s wings . ” (Ena)
“Neptune you say?” (Ryouta)
I furrowed my eyebrows, and I have a bad feeling about this .
“I heard that Neptune has recently joined under your family, so his own teammates have entered as well . They’re all saying things like [We’ll follow Brother Ryouta for the rest of our lives] or something along those lines . ” (Ena)
“………… . ” (Ryouta)
Rubbing my eyebrows, I was starting to get a headache .
I don’t think I can accept these hot headed people .
And thus I left it as is .
Then after a few days, the largest family was born, with Ryouta Family having Neptune’s Family, and his own subordinate families under him .
I’m beginning to get a migraine from this .
