Chapter 94: 94
[……Of course, I know that Kaito-san doesn’t have any bad intentions . However, how many times have you done this already? Kuromueinsama, God of Creation-sama, Death King-sama, and now World King-sama…… Even if you leave Chronois-sama out of that, you’ve already done this four times . ]
[……Yes . ]
[I’m already at my wit’s end, so aren’t I allowed to scold Kaito-san at least once!?]
[I- It’s as you say . ]
In front of Lilisan who was standing in front of me with a sad expression on her face…… or rather, she’s half-crying already, I was sitting in a seiza while bowing my head .
The content of our conversation was, of course, about Lillywood-san, and since she’s already the third one among the Six Kings, it seems that Lilisan’s patience reached its limit .
But even so, I’m not sure if it’s because she understands that I didn’t intentionally do it, so she’s not unnecessarily yelling at me…… but it’s more like she’s complaining at me .
[……Well, it’s not that Kaito-san was hiding it this time, and fortunately, if it’s the World King-sama, she wasn’t a troublesome one . So, let’s end the conversation here . ]
[T- Thank you . ]
It seems that this is the end of the sermon, or rather, the complaints, as Lilisan lets out a big sigh and her tense expression breaks down .

Well, I’m really feeling sorry for pushing Lilisan to this point, and I know that the people I got to know are so outrageous that the kind Lilisan has an expression that looks like a crisis is approaching .
No, I’m really sorry…… but…… If I could just complain about just one thing, just one thing…… Lilisan, I would have been happy if you could have reached that conclusion “30 minutes earlier” .
My legs are already numb and I can’t feel them anymore……
Finally free of Lilisan’s anger, I went back to meet up with everyone .
Everyone seems to have decided not to mention what happened with Lilisan just now, as they greeted me quite normally .
[Miyamsama…… Over here . ]
[Lunamarisan? What is this envelope?]
As soon as I came back, Lunamarisan looked like she’s somewhat in a good mood as she held out an envelope to me, and when I received it, I tilted my head and looked inside…… And I found quite a bit of money in there .
[Well~~ I’ve earned quite an amount from Miyamsama . I’m already in a state where I can’t stop smiling . And so, this is just an expression of what I’m feeling . ]
[H- Huh……]

Apparently, Lunamarisan, who bet all of her last month’s salary on me, won big, and that was why she already had that angelic smile on her face .
Seriously, this useless maid is…… If the dirt on Ein-san’s nail would be boiled and she was to drink it, would she get even a bit better?
But well, after responding to Lunamarisan and moving my gaze away from her…… I found Fisan sitting on a chair with her hanging down .
[Ummm, what’s wrong with Fisan?]
[Miyamkun…… Please leave her alone for now . Right now, Fia is facing the twilight phase of her life . ]
[Huh?]
[……2000…… To have acquired 2000…… A monster……]
With an expression that somehow looks like she burned out, Fisan muttered that I’m a monster . Confused from the sorrow on her face, I tried calling out to her to comfort her .
[……Ah, no, I only acquired that many thanks to Lillywood-san’s power, and I didn’t acquire that much . ]
[Then…… How many did you collect before you met World King-sama?]

[……300-something . ]
[……Please accept me as your disciple . ]
[Why!?]
It seems that her mind is quite weak, and for some reason, Fisan kneels into a dogeza and starts saying incomprehensible things .
Rei-san and I tried to console Fisan as she’s in that state…… And after a while, she finally looks up and returns to her earlier posture .
Yep, I may have done it too much, in all sorts of ways .
I knew I should have asked them properly beforehand about the scores of the previous harvest festivals .
[Well, Kaito-san really just keeps surprising me in so many ways…… As expected, that would be the last one, right?]
[……Ah, no, that’s……]
[……Do you still have……]

Taking a sip of the tea Lunamarisan had brewed for me, when I heard Lilisan’s words about how she’s sincerely tired of the surprises, I thought of what was in my magic box .
That I had now a Fruit of the World Tree in my possession…… It’s easy to imagine what the situation would be like if I were to take it out here .
However, that doesn’t mean that I’m going to hide it now…… It’s just that I’m afraid of the consequences, mainly from Lilisan……
I think about it for a moment and then, rather than put it off, I take the Fruit of the World Tree out of the magic box and place it on the table .
[What’s this?]
[It’s beautiful . ]
Looking at the Fruit of the World Tree that looked like a transparent crystal, Kusunoki-san and Yuzuki-san tilted their heads in curiosity .
However, not only them, Lilisan and Lunamarisan also tilted their heads when they saw it .
Ah, come to think of it, Lilisan also said she had never seen the real thing before……
[Mi- Miyamkun!? Don’t tell me…… This is!?]

Apparently, Rei-san seems to have guessed what this is and looks at me with an expression of disbelief on his face, as if to say he can’t believe he’s seeing it .
[Yes…… This is the Fruit of the World Tree . I received it from Lillywood-san . ]
In my words, everyone’s faces were filled with astonishment .
It’s no wonder since the Fruit of the World Tree rarely appears on the public and they were even surprised just to hear that it was going to be a prize at the hunting tournament, so it’s only natural that they would have this reaction if the real thing appeared in front of them .
Everyone stared at the Fruit of the World Tree for a while, and then…… the expression on Lilisan’s face disappeared .
[Ummm, My Lady?]
Lilisan then stood up with a blank expression on her face and walked to the corner of the room…… and sat down with her knees held in her embrace .

[My Lady!?]

[……Why…… Why…… I couldn’t even get my hands on it after years of searching…… So why the heck that after getting out for a few hours, as if you just went outside to buy it, you quickly got your hands on it……]
[My Lady, keep a hold on yourself!]
[Uuuhhhh…… Uwwaaaahhhh! Geez, Kaito-san, I hate yoooouuuuu!!!]]
……She started crying .
It seems that it was quite a shock for her when I easily obtained the Fruit of the World Tree, which she couldn’t obtain even though she had been desperately searching it for years, and Lilisan began crying like a child .
As emotions began bubbling up from within me seeing such a scene, I took the Fruit of the World Tree in my hand and held it out to Sieg-san .
[Sieg-san, here……]
[I heard from Sieg-san yesterday that you don’t plan to heal that wound, but maybe someday, you’ll change your mind…… and you can use it then . ]

Looking at the Fruit of the World Tree I held out to her, Sieg-san vigorously shook her head .
I’ve already somewhat predicted this from happening, as Sieg-san is probably refraining from receiving something that expensive .
But as for me, I want Sieg-san to receive this at all costs, so I decide to give it to her a little too forcefully .
Quickly grabbing Sieg-san’s hand, I let her hold the Fruit of the World Tree .
[Even if you won’t use it, that’s still fine with me . It’s just that I wanted to do something for Sieg-san who has always been a great help for me so……]
Is she really that flustered? When I grabbed her hand, Sieg-san’s face turned red and a bewildered expression appeared on her face, but she could still tell that I wouldn’t give up, as after a little while, she accepted the Fruit of the World Tree .
Sieg-san holds the Fruit of the World Tree with both of her hands as if it were important, and after a little while, she puts it away in her own magic box before taking out a piece of paper and pen .

“Thank you very much . Kaito-san . ”
[Ah, no, I didn’t mean to be intrusive…… but I think it’s better if you have more options . ]

“Yes, I suppose . Right now, I still don’t have an answer as to whether I’ll use it or not but…… I’ll take good care of it . ”
[Yes . I think it’s best for you to do what you want, Sieg-san . ]
“You…… really are……”
Sieg-san puts down her pen and paper just as she had written that much and quickly reached out her arms to me and hugged me——- Eh?
[Wait!? Sieg-san!?]
Sieg-san, who is almost as tall as I am, hugged the surprised me for a few moments, before she removed her arms and brought her mouth close to my ears .
——-Thank you .
Maybe it was my imagination, but when I heard such a voice, I felt like something soft touched my earlobe .
Dear Mom, Dad——- I gave the Fruit of the World Tree to Sieg-san . She still doesn’t seem to have the answer of whether she’ll use it or not, but even for just a bit—— I think I helped Sieg-san .

As Lilia…… cried .
Kaito…… flirted .
I think Lilia can be forgiven even if she punches Kaito a couple of times .
