Lord Summoner's Freedom Philosophy: Grimoire of Love
30 The Reward For The Rescue (2)
"Uh... Mr. Abraham told me to go here to get the rewards for the request, but... What with this unexpected hostility?" Lyan asked with a wry smile as he saw Xena, Alina, Ravia, and Raine staring at him with full hostility. Only Belle is fidgeting as she lowered her head.
The place Abraham told him to enter is the private living room of the house's staff. It has a drinking corner, a kitchen, and sofas. It seems that not all of the staff are allowed to enter the room. The room is designed and decorated with beautiful decorations and aesthetic senses.
"Hahaha! No need to worry about them. Here, this is your part for defeating the goblins and my personal payment for my request to you," The Madam handed a big leather pouch to Lyan.
"The total is 50 gold coins. Killing the two goblin champion variants worth 20 gold coins, the goblin champion worth 5 gold coins, the rest of the goblins and the hobgoblins are worth 5 gold coins, and we got a rather huge haul from the lair's treasury. After dividing it up, you and your shadow hobgoblin's share is 20 gold coins. That shadow hobgoblin of yours really helps a lot, you know!?" The Madam explained the details cheerfully.
The shadow hobgoblin assisted the Madam and Abraham in collecting the ears of the goblins and looting the treasury until the end and vanished into the shadows after they were finished. He immediately returns to Lyan's side after finishing his mission obediently and loyally.
"I see. I glad I could help," Lyan answered calmly. Calmly at the surface. Actually, he was very thrilled at the time when the Madam told him the amount of his reward.
(F-Fifty gold coins!?!? 10 silver coins are 1 big silver coin, and 100 big silver coin is 1 gold coin... Together with the expenses from buying the food for the spirits and the lodging, now I have... fifty million and twenty two thousand and six hundred Elnes!!!!) (Lyan)
"But are you sure that it's the right amount? Isn't it too many?" (Lyan)
"I know you'll ask! The thing is, the city's council had given an issue to sponsor the whole goblin king subjugation. Every kill of goblins will be given a decent amount of reward, and because of that, the goblin champions we killed and the rest of the goblins we slew could give us that much of fortune!" (Madam)
"And the guild will also send an investigation group to the goblin lair we visited yesterday. Lady Lichia said that another separate reward will be given for subjugating the lair," (Abraham)
"I see... So that's the reason... To think that I will get such a fortune by rescuing these girls..." Lyan muttered as he stared at the leather pouch with 50 million Elnes worth of gold coins inside it.
"Goblin champions are a big threat, to begin with. Their difficulty is considered as AA ranked, which means that it's a monster for a Mythril-ranked mercenary or an adventurer with a similar rank to slay. And the goblin champion variants you killed are classified as AAA-ranked monsters. So doubled with the bonus from the city, it's an appropriate amount, don't you think? You eliminated the possibly huge threat for the city, after all," (Madam)
"I see... I guess I could go easy with these in hand," Uttered Lyan with a smile plastered on his face.
"Yeah. Do you have any intention to live in this city permanently? Living in an inn is good, but it might be quite pricey if it's for the long-term. If you intended on staying here for a long time, it might be a good idea for you to buy a house. With that amount, you could get a decent house for 20 gold coins, you know? With your strength, you will be a famous mercenary and make lots of money in a short time anyway. Ah, do you perhaps want to return to your family and your hometown?" (Madam)
""Permanently..."" (Belle & Alina & Xena)
"Ah... I don't have any relatives since I was an orphan. And unfortunately, I don't have any intention of staying in this city for a long time. I want to look at the world and have a journey, with nothing shackling me, I would like to enjoy my freedom for a while," (Lyan)
The Madam and the others could sense that Lyan's answer is his honest desire and his honest thoughts. Looking at and hearing him saying his wish to have a journey makes Alina, Belle, and Xena felt the distance between them with him.
"I see... If that's what you sincerely wish, then good," The Madam uttered with a chuckle.
"But Mr. Lyan," Abraham put the teapot he's holding and approached Lyan.
"This is just some advice from me, but it would be best if you find people that you could call your family as soon as possible. With your strength, I believe you have a bright future, but as you rise in fame, more people with malicious intentions will approach you. As strong your body and mind are, it will still be best if you have people to rely on," (Abraham)
Abraham's words felt like a piece of advice from a grandfather to his grandson, making Lyan feel his heart warmed by it.
"I understand. I do have the intention of doing so myself as well, thank you for reminding me, Mr. Abraham," (Lyan)
!!!!!!!
At that moment, Belle's, Alina's, and Xena's complexions brighten.
(H-He wants to make a family... It means... He's searching for a wife!!!) (Belle & Alina & Xena)
"Well, but you need to hear me, Lyan. Trust me, my hunch is usually right. I have a feeling that you, a person with an elemental mana like you, will suddenly get bounded with something," (Madam)
"With something?" (Lyan)
"Well, I don't know. Maybe you'll become a noble or something? We would never know, wouldn't we?" The Madam shrugged.
"I-I prefer not to be one... Being a noble will be too much of a shackle and burden for me, after all..." (Lyan)
"Hm... Considering your demeanor, your values, and your strength, you might be a great noble, Mr. Lyan. Your eyes didn't hold prejudice towards people, and you didn't take advantage of the fact that you helped the ladies as well. You might want to remember the Madam's words, the Madam's hunch is usually right, after all," (Abraham)
"Noted. I'll keep that in mind," (Lyan)
'Well, gramps. It's time to get back to work. You kids are free today so have fun!" (Madam)
The Madam left the room, leaving Lyan together with the five girls.
(Wait a minute, with that amount of money he possesses, having more than one wife won't be a problem for him, no? And if what the Madam said is right and he became a noble, he might have even more money to support even the three of us!) (Xena)
"Um... So-" (Lyan)
"F-For your reward from me, would you like to get it now!?" Belle suddenly cut Lyan's words with a flustered look.
(Belle!?!?!?) (Alina & Xena & Ravia & Raine)
(T-To think that Belle would be so bold... It's my miscalculation...) (Xena)
(Ugh... Belle gonna steal the march... Will he accepts it...?) (Alina)
"Ah... From that time huh. It's a little bit embarrassing, but it would greatly help me if you do so. Please explain to the other ladies that work in the house about what actually happened in the forest and the night two days ago so that they could accept me as a customer. It would be great if you could make them accept me though," (Lyan)
""Eh?"" (The five girls)
"Eh?" (Lyan)
So in short, Lyan's request is for one of the courtesans' house to accept him as a customer and sleep with him. Which stunned the five girls in the room because of the unexpected turn of conversation.
(Eh? Eh? A-Am I rejected...?) (Belle)
(Belle's rejected!? I-If even Belle got rejected... It will be hard for any of us to approach him as well... But what does he actually means!? He wants the other girls but not us, the greatest flowers from the house!?!?) (Xena)
"Um. That's the reward I want. But only if it won't bother you and the other ladies, of course," (Lyan)
Lyan is aware of Xena's romantic feelings for him from the kiss on his cheek last night, but he has no intentions of having personal relations where he will get bounded by someone and get his movement and choices restricted when he still didn't know the common sense of relationships in this world. So he intended to continue to act oblivious to her feelings.
But for the current development, he has no idea about Belle thinking that he wanted her body as a reward for saving her two friends. The reason why he accepted is that he thought that she might be able to give good words about him to the other girls that worked at the house and get the chance to vent out his pent-up lust that he has been suppressing with his powerful self-control.
(But if I continue to suppress it without venting it out, it might be dangerous once it gone wild and I don't know what I might do. So I need to quickly get someone to vent this out!) (Lyan)
