78 Chapter 78: "Meeting with thieves and observers"

Homu Paradise...

Standing still in place, while watching the departure of Raiden Ryoma who was in a hurry with his entourage. Siegfried opened his mouth in utter confusion.

"Is that man really your father?"

Hearing a very straight question from Siegfried. Mei's mouth twitched slightly.

"Right, he's my father. I just... Maybe I'm used to it. I'm probably expecting too much from him today."

Mei sighed sadly.

The reason why the two of them were able to come to Homu Paradise was because of her own request.

She saw that her father had free time for her today, so she asked her father to bring her here together.

It is just...

She didn't expect, that this free time would actually be so short.

"Sorry Mr. Siegfried for disturbing your free time. I won't be bothering you anymore, so I permission to leave go home first."

"What? Leave go home? Now?!"

Siegfried opened his eyes wide.

Why does this twelve year old girl's attitude look so adult? Being able to go home alone, this girl is too brave!

Your house is very far from this place!

"No, no, no. Your father has trusted you in me. So, let's deal with it to the end. Besides, why go to an amusement park without trying any of the rides? We should at least try one!"

Siegfried smiled brightly.

"I also have four daughters who are exactly the same age as you. You all will definitely become good friends."

Dragged to the resting place of the Kaslana family. Mei, who intended to go home alone, immediately suppressed her intention for a while.

Anyway, let's have a look first.

"Dad, who is she? You didn't kidnap her on the street did you?" Kiana asked Siegfried with a disgusted face.

She had heard from aunt Theresa that her father was a beast. Was he now aiming for a small child to become his prey?

"What's with that face, Don't judge too quickly. This girl's name is Raiden Mei, the daughter of a friend dad entrusted to me. From now on, she will go with us to have fun!"

Hearing her father's words, and not feeling that Siegfried was lying to her this time. Kiana stared at Mei's face for a while, before she stretched her right hand forward.

"Introducing my name is Kiana Kaslana! Your name is Raiden Mei? From now on we are friends!"

"Eh... Yes, nice to meet you, Kiana."

For this enthusiastic girl in front of her, Mei shook her small hand as a gesture of friendship.

The bright smile on her face was truly very contagious. Mei felt the girl in front of her was a good girl.

"Oh, since we are already friends, let me introduce my sisters too!"

Holding Mei's hand enthusiastically, and dragging her towards her sisters. Kiana pointed her finger at Sirin who was holding two balloons in a daze.

"Her name is Sirin, my oldest sister. Sister Sirin is good at cooking, and always helps mama with the housework. She is a very understanding sister!"

Mei bowed her body: "Greetings sister Sirin, my name is Raiden Mei."

Sirin: "Oh, nice to meet you."

Can see at a glance that Sirin is the type of being anti-social with new people. Mei wisely stopped her talk.

"Then this is my twin sister Aurora! Don't be fooled by her mouth, she is a big liar!"

Aurora: "....?"

Feeling she was insulted for no apparent reason. Aurora, who was taking shelter and drinking lemon juice, lowered the sunglasses that were on her face at this time.

She realized that Mei was next to Kiana.

"Hm?"

Aurora felt something strange.

"Oh, it turned out to be just a thief. What's the matter, come to surrender?"

Mei: "(☉_☉)?"

Feeling confused about what Aurora meant. Mei, who saw a pair of very sharp golden colored eyes, for some reason suddenly shivered with cold.

Cecilia suddenly appeared behind Aurora, and she hit her head lightly: "Aurora, don't talk to others like that. Remember, respect others, then you will be respected by others too."

"Hum!"

Aurora snorted indifferently.

"This queen's respect is very limited. Besides for a thief like her, she doesn't deserve my respect. They should kneel down begging for my forgiveness."

"AURORA~~"

Feeling Cecilia's gloomy aura getting thicker and thicker. Aurora, who was already sweating coldly, still held her head high.

Even if she were to die today, she would not lower her head to apologize!

This is the pride of a queen!

"CRACK!!!"

"Sorry I was wrong."

Heard the sound of something breaking behind her. Aurora, who was very arrogant, immediately apologized very quickly.

Thinking about it carefully, dying here wasn't worth it!

This world still needs a queen to return!

Mei: "....?"

Feeling confused with how Aurora's way of thinking. Mei could only nod her head stiffly.

Kiana waved her hand nonchalantly: "Just ignore her. She can also be very weird sometimes just like Thea's sister."

"By the way, where is Thea? Why can't I see her here?"

____

In the other place...

Walk around the location that Sirin mentioned before. Thea who had turned her head 360 degrees several times, finally scratched her head in confusion.

"Where is Uncle the balloon seller? Did Sirin lie to me?"

With her ego, when Sirin wanted to give her a helium balloon, of course Thea would strongly reject it.

But....

When she saw that Kiana and Aurora each got one balloon, and kept playing around her. Thea somehow felt very jealous.

So, by her wise decision, she decided to buy the balloon herself.

She wants to buy more!

More than Sirin has!

"Well, she must have tricked me."

Searched here and there without success. Thea, who was looking desperately for the figure of the balloon seller's uncle around her place, finally saw a bunch of balloons floating behind the fence of the building.

"Uncle at the balloon seller!"

Seeing signs of the balloon seller's uncle. Thea immediately rushed there without hesitation!

"Uncle, I bought five balloons!"

Turn the corner, and scream with joy like finding a treasure. Thea, who saw the face of the balloon seller's uncle, suddenly froze in place.

Gray Serpent: "...."

Thea: "...."

Gray Serpent: ".... Want to buy some balloons?"

Thea: "...."

Gray Serpent: "....?"

Thea: "...No, sorry, wrong person."

Backing away slowly, Thea immediately ran away from there without hesitation!

Gray Serpent: "....Is my face really scary for kids?"

Raven: "Of course. Look, you've been stand up here for a long time but no one wants to buy that balloon in your hand. You should have handed it over to me."

Dressed in a fiery red Hola costume, with shark teeth, and the ears on her head appear to be on fire. Raven who disguised herself as one of the Homu, said in a dissatisfied tone.

"Now that our target has fled because of your ugly appearance. Why don't we just kidnap her instead of doing a really stupid surveillance mission like this?"

Gray Serpent shook his head.

"Showing an aggressive attitude to a lesser-known party is not a good attitude. Even though that girl has a high probability of being closely related to our master's loss of connections, Otto deleting all the biodata she has about her really makes us wary."

"At least, until we actually find out what this consciousness of the stigmata has to do with our master's sudden loss of connection."

"Until then, we will continue to play in the safe zone."

Hearing Gray Serpent's words, Raven rolled her eyes indifferently.

After all, she was just a mercenary. Whatever the boss says, those are her words too. As long as her salary is paid on time, everything is fine with her.

"So how long do I have to wear this costume? It's already noon, and I feel like I'm roasting in here!"

Gray Serpent : "....You look so cute."

"Hey! That's not something I want to hear! Don't try to change the subject, please answer me immediately!"

"Wait, where are you going?"

"Wait for me!"
