Mystic Dominator

Under the background of the mood of finally achieving the goal, the night of reunion passed quickly.

Compared with when they were separated more than half a year ago, Heloise had not changed much, almost giving Ronald the illusion that the two of them had not been separated for too long.

Until dawn the next day.

After waking up in the room on the third floor of Heloise's shop, Ronald discovered that there was someone missing from his side.

"Heloise..."

Bang bang bang——

Ronald, who had just woken up, subconsciously read Heloise's name.

But before he could find the other person, there was a gentle knock on the door. Heloise, holding three breakfasts in her hands, returned to the house at just the right time.

"Ronald, come get something to eat?"

"Ah, it turns out you went to prepare breakfast."

Ronald then suddenly realized.

He looked at the food in Heloise's hands and found that they were all things he liked to eat.

This feeling of being taken care of...

Although I have become accustomed to the life of being cared for by Costat, the oncoming sense of nostalgia that comes with meeting Heloise again at this moment is indeed quite a good feeling.

Next, Ronald, Heloise and Patricia had breakfast in the house.

The three of them took advantage of this time to share their experiences and changes after their separation.

It wasn't until breakfast was almost finished that Heloise took the initiative to speak:

“So——Ronald, are you going to take me back to [Grade]’s fleet as soon as possible?”

Ronald nodded naturally and replied:

"There are still people on the fleet who need my care. We'd better leave as soon as possible."

"..."

Hearing this answer, Heloise was silent for a few seconds.

Then she suddenly realized that she didn't need to hide anything from Ronald, so she said bluntly:

"Ronald, I still have things to do at [Giorno] for the time being."

"I'm afraid I can't leave here right away."

"Still have something to do?" Ronald asked, "What is it? Can I help?"

Of course Heloise immediately began to explain:

"This matter actually has something to do with my last appearance in the slave market."

"A few months ago, I traveled together with other people who left [Grid], and met many people along the way..."

Heloise told her story coherently.

The journey was so long that it almost spanned the continent, and it was natural that he experienced many dangers and special scenes. It is precisely because of this that Heloise received help from many people and was able to successfully reach the [Looney Kingdom].

However, just a few days ago, there was a problem with those people who had chosen to live in [Looney Kingdom].

Several families suddenly disappeared.

There were even a few good-looking guys who appeared in [Giorno]'s slave market - as slaves!

So, as one of the core members of the entire team.

Even though everyone has dispersed now, Heloise still does not want to ignore the matter, but is ready to participate in the investigation and rescue her companions who have become slaves.

It was also her way of repaying the favor she had received.

After hearing Heloise's thoughts, Ronald naturally expressed his support for her decision. After all, this exchange of kindness can be regarded as the simplest human emotion.

"In that case, it's really time to help."

Ronald nodded in approval and then asked:

"Heloise, did you find any special clues in the homes of those missing families?"

Heloise shook her head regretfully:

"The person who did it was a veteran and left almost no clues."

"Things that can be considered a discovery - probably the person who did it must be a strong person on the mysterious side, and not a cult warlock."

Ronald frowned.

In just a few words, he had already discovered a loophole:

"Could this be a trap?"

"Since they can clean up the traces to this extent, there is no reason for the other party to make a foolish move of selling a few people as slaves - so this is most likely a deliberate choice."

Seeing Ronald put the biggest problem in front of her in one breath, Heloise couldn't help but sigh:

"Who says it's not?"

"But even if it is an obvious trap, it is something we cannot avoid as long as we plan to save people. Perhaps the only thing we can hope for is that after we rescue people, we can really get a certain level of information."

At this time, Patricia also joined the conversation:

"I remember last night's auction, the third slave was [Gred]..."

Once in [Springs], Heloise and Patricia had a good exchange, and after what happened last night, this relationship has naturally continued to the present.

Immediately, Heloise nodded to Patricia and said:

"That's why I showed up at the slave market last night."

"It's just a pity that he was finally bought by a big businessman from [Giorno]. I really don't have the ability to bid with that kind of person."

Ronald asked:

"Do you know the businessman who bought that man? Do you know where he lives?"

Heloise immediately nodded and replied:

"Of course, in order to open this store, I went to his place to visit the dock before!"

"..."

"Then let's go and visit first." Ronald thought for a few seconds and then made the final decision, "In this matter, no matter what problems there are, we must take action first."

"It's all up to you, Ronald."

Heloise nodded in agreement, then she stood up and walked to other rooms in the living area alone:

"But in that case, please wait a moment while I go pack some things. After all, everyone is leaving, so there won't be anything left to trouble others."

…

After breakfast today.

The three of them walked downstairs and were naturally seen by the guy who got up early to clean up.

When the little guy saw Heloise's current appearance, he even felt the same as last night, with a very obvious sense of discomfort:

"You...uh, boss, are you going out early in the morning?"

Heloise smiled at the young man and then replied directly:

"Yes, I'm going out now."

"It's just that if I leave today, I may not come back."

The little guy didn't react at the first time.

When he realized the meaning of Heloise's words, the broom in his hand fell directly to the ground, with a completely incomprehensible expression:

"You...are you kidding me?"

"What is, what does it mean that after you leave, you won't come back?"

"..."

In contrast to the nervousness and confusion of the young man, Heloise showed no nostalgia at all.

Only at the end before leaving the store, she said seriously to the little boy in a persuasive tone:

"From now on - this store will be left to you."

"While I'm away, remember to run this place well."
