Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
Takeo and Mia were back in the study.
Takeo was sitting at his desk and Mia was sitting on the sofa across from him.
“Well, Mia, how was today?”
“Master, you explained to me in advance before meeting everyone, but things did really go as Master said it would, didn’t it?”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Tell everyone what happened to me, and Master will cut off the conversation and release me.”
“No one thought Mia was a threat, right?”
“Yes.
However, I was surprised because humans are known as a mass of greed.
I was fully prepared to be put in a freak show, but… “
“Freak show… Are fairies that rare?”
“We are taught so.
If caught by humans, there would be no freedom, and you would end up spending your entire life in a birdcage … “
“I see. Maybe we are unusual.
Neither I nor the Elvis family is planning to do business using Mia.
Rather than that, the current Earl, the chief civil office, and I are thinking of improving the management of the territory.
So, that will not happen to you while being on the Earl’s side.
If by any chance, you were caught by a merchant, then you may end up in a birdcage life as Mia had said so.
… When you go outside the mansion, be sure to be near me or Miss Alice.
We can protect Mia … at least in this city. “
“Yes, I understand. Master.”
“Personally, I was more surprised when Mia said you would be my subordinate?”
“Because there are delicious things, right?”
“Well, I don’t make it that often, but … it seems that I’m making something that isn’t in this world.
It is very popular with the people here. “
“The only sweets in our home were flowers and fruits.
The thing I received earlier… I was impressed. Is that what humans normally eat? “
“That’s called caramel, and I made it yesterday.
We plan to make it frequently in the future, so if we make more, it would come to us as well. “
“I worship Master because you just have that.”
“Haha, I’ll make delicious food when I feel like it.”
“Thank you.”
Mia thanked me.
“Well, Mia.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Can Mia use recovery magic?”
“Just something simple like ‘care’…”
“How many times can you do it?”
“We fairies have no limit on the number of times we can recover. We can use “care” as much as we like.”
“I see, what about other magic?”
Mia thought about Takeo’s question while tilting her head …
“Nothing in particular …”
“Mia can talk to fantasia type, right?”
“I can talk with some, but I can’t talk with others. I don’t know why.”
“Hmm… So you don’t know the standard.”
“I’m sorry.”
“It doesn’t mean I’m blaming you.
Other than that… For example, can you detect monsters and people? “[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
“Yes. Roughly … I can tell if something is there.
We rely on it to avoid people. “
“Is that so… About the range, how far can you detect it in distance?”
“…About 200,300m.”
“It’s surprisingly a wide range.”
“I can’t tell if I’m in the middle of a lot of them..”
“Can you use it on city roads while moving, right? That would be enough.”
Takeo stood up and walked to the door on the hallway side.
“Master?”
“You must be tired today. Wrap yourself in a blanket and go to bed.”
“Yes.”
Mia gathered the blanket on the sofa with her hands.
“Master, good night.”
“Yes, good night.”
Takeo left the study.
Mia was wrapped in a blanket.
Then, drowsiness struck her immediately.

Takeo got out of the bath and came back to the bedroom.
“It was a good bath.”
Takeo said as he returned to the bedroom.
“Welcome back, Takeo-sama.”
Alice sat up on the bed and greeted him with a smile.
Takeo sat next to Alice.
“Miss Alice, what do you think about Mia?”
“She’s so cute.
However, to attach a fairy to the ogre, use it as a marker, and let the goblins chase it …
It seems efficient… But also, inefficient… It’s a mysterious tactic. “
“Hmm… In a sense, it’s a scary tactic.”
“Is that so?”
“Even when their friend collapses, they keep walking and approaching without any confusion…
What are they thinking? This made me think more about it.
And … how far did they walk? “
“Maybe to this mansion?”
“I think they were instructed to just walk straight forward.
If we didn’t intervene, they would cross the city and go straight further and further.
Maybe it’s more effective with simpler commands?
The person who thinks about this sees ogres and goblins as less than objects.
And they know that we will definitely make a move, so they know they can use such tactics.”
“That’s right … Well, there is no way to confirm it..”
“Exactly.”
Takeo hugged Alice.
“Hmm … Takeo-sama, what’s wrong?”
Alice also put her hand around Takeo.
“… I want to enjoy the feel of Miss Alice.”
“I too have to enjoy the feel of Takeo-sama.”
Alice was hugging happily.
“That reminds me, you were looking at the notebook with Layla, right?”
Alice was surprised at Takeo’s question.
“Eh … Yes.”
“Is there anything you would like to try?”
“Fue!? … No … No … That … No specific one…”
Alice turned bright red and said it while hiding her face.
“Then, shall we try all of it?”
“What !?”
Alice looked at Takeo with surprise.
“Fufu, I wonder what time we can finally go to sleep today?”
“Ah…”
Takeo looked happy and Alice turned bright red but followed Takeo’s lead.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
