Chapter 157
[No no wait, I don’t know even know where to begin . ]
Clint who was called all of a sudden furrowed his eyebrows, showing his wrinkles, and bitterly laughed .
Beside him was Cell silently praising Emily .
[Excuse me, but where did this tea leaf come from? It’s deliciousness would enter my top 3 most favourite tea of all time . ] (Cell)
[The tea is bought at a tea store desu . It’s just ordinary tea nanodesu . ] (Emily)
[My word! To produce such taste… . . Mumumu, as expected of a friend of Satou-sama huh . ] (Cell)
Being satisfied by Emily’s tea, Cell praised her yet again .
Putting that aside for now, I turned to face Clint .
[Do you know of Stem-sama?] (Clint)
[No . ] (Ryouta)
[Then how about this?] (Clint)
Clint took out a piece of paper from his pocket .
The currency of this world, Piro . It was the largest value, 10k Piro, that he took out .
[Isn’t it just money, what’s so special about it?] (Ryouta)
[No, it really is just an ordinary 10k Piro . But it’s Stem-sama’s parents house that produces this . ] (Clint)
[……Heh . ] (Ryouta)
For a moment, I did not know what to say so I let out a stupified voice .
Everything in this world is dropped by monsters . Knowing that money was also a dungeon drop, I was only half surprised .
But this time, I was even more surprised .
… . . I was surprised because I sort of understood what Clint was trying to say .
[Producing that… . You mean the money?] (Ryouta)
[That’s right . It’s Stem-sama’s family that governs the dungeon that drops such bills . ] (Clint)
[Isn’t he just Okubo Nagayasu . ] (Ryouta) (TLN: A samurai bureaucrat that was in charge of silver mines during the Edo period . )
It was not a fuss about oil money, but actual money .
It that story were to be true, this man’s parents’ house is at a ridiculous world, far for us to grasp .
[That’s right . ] (Clint)
As if knowing what I was thinking through my expression, Clint answered with a bitter smile .
[Thus, I cannot refuse to give up my seat when the order was from the higher ups . ] (Clint)
[Well, that’s obvious… . . ] (Ryouta)
While we were busy discussing seriously, Cell and Emily were excitedly discussing a different story .
Cell took out a doll one by one from his bosom .
It was a hand-held sized dolls .
He placed it on the table and showed it to Emily .
[This is Satou-sama battling barehanded, and this is Satou-sama when he’s sniping, and this is Satou-sama when he’s seriously fighting the Dungeon Master . ] (Cell)
[Amazing desu, it looks exactly the same nanodesu!] (Emily)
[Why and when did you even make such things!] (Ryouta)
I greatly retorted .
All the hand-held sized dolls were all me .
More accurately, it was like those figurine that you could see at an Akiba shop, but the figure was surprising high quality, so high quality to the point that if I were to become small using magic, it would look almost the same .
[Why that is of course I respect Satou-sama . This is when Satou-sama is in Selen, and this is when Satou-sama is in Aurum . Oh and this is when Satou-sama lent his power to Lady Margaret—–] (Cell)
[Aren’t you just a stalker!!] (Ryouta)
My voice came running out from the back, all the way out .
Even though the close quarter combat and sniping figures were fine, but up to the point where there were particular situations of me doing something, that just crosses the line .
[Wait a minute, I am not a stalker . I’m merely impressed with Satou-sama’s pure and honest actions . ] (Cell)
[… . . ] (Ryouta)
I saw Cell’s eyes . All stalkers says that .
[It’s true… . . All of these, are when Satou-sama helped people who are in need . ] (Cell)
[Muu . ] (Ryouta)
Seeing Cell talking in a serious manner, I was suddenly remember a line which says [If there’s someone in trouble, then there’s someone with the power to help . ] .
[Let’s put it this way, these are just to shape the appearance of what Satou-sama did at that time . ] (Cell)
[… . . I, I see . ] (Ryouta)
I guess so .
Even though it’s barely crossing over the lines, but I guess it maybe so .
[When you mention about Yoda-san helping others, do you have one with Cerberus-chan too desu?] (Emily)
[Without a doubt, I certainly have—–Ah . ] (Cell)
While he was trying to take out a new figurine, a bean like item dropped to the ground .
It wasn’t a figure, but a jewel .
[It’s the Tears of Slime nanodesu . ] (Emily)
Emily immediately knew what it was at a glance, even I too .
It was a request that we got during the harvest festival, so I still remembered it .
[Th, this is different . ] (Cell)
Cell hurriedly picked it up and hid it into his bosom .
… . .
……
[Don’t tell me that’s—–] (Ryouta)
[No it’s not, it’s not like I asked them to switched out during the harvest festival when Satou-sama gave it to them . ] (Cell)
[You freaking stalker!!] (Ryouta)
There’s no doubt, this is a genuine stalker .
100%, no room for doubt .
The stalker Cell was revealed in the salon which was surrounded by a strange air .
After awhile, Cell coughed to clear his throat, and acted as if nothing ever happened .
[I’ll be staying in this city for awhile . I might ask Satou-sama for assistance as the Chief of the Dungeon Association, so I’m counting on you . ] (Cell)
[A, aah . ] (Ryouta)
[As a way of thanking you so not just this mansion, but the 3 other properties that Satou-sama rents, I’ve bought them all and shall give—–] (Cell)
[Please stop . ] (Ryouta)
I stopped Cell’s words mid sentence .
[Mu? What do you mean by, please stop?] (Cell)
[There’s no reason to get such deal by you . ] (Ryouta)
[No, this is . ] (Cell)
[I’m not troubled by it . ] (Ryouta)
I told Cell off with a simple and short sentence while staring at him .
Of course if you do something, you’ll be rewarded, or if you’re in trouble and you need help .
If it’s neither of those, then there’s no reason to be rewarded .
Taking back Cell’s words, he had a bitter face .
[Yes, it’s as Satou-sama puts it . ] (Cell)
[I’m sorry . ] (Ryouta)
[But I’m in quite the predicament . Since I’ve recently came to this city, I want to have some connection with Satou-sama, even if it were a little . ] (Cell)
[… . . ] (Ryouta)
I’m troubled by his words though in various ways .
[Oh right! Would you like me to deliver Satou-sama’s drops everyday?] (Cell)
[Drop?] (Ryouta)
[Umu . My sister who came together with me is a gourmet . Though it’s slightly unbalanced… . . But she should be satisfied with Satou-sama’s drops . I’ll even pay twice the market price, so let me do it everyday!] (Cell)
[… . . Fumu . ] (Ryouta)
I thought for a moment while putting my hands on my chin .
[If you put it that way… . . I got it . ] (Ryouta)
[Really!] (Cell)
Cell was delighted to have his proposal accepted .
[He really does resemble Cerberus nanodesu . ] (Emily)
Emily murmured to herself, the troubled me also agreed .
Though he’s a stalker, but it gave me a complicated feeling .
☆
Cell and Clint who left Ryouta’s residence, sat inside the Stem family’s chariot .
Clint was sitting opposite of Cell while bitterly smiling .
[I can’t believe he refused the proposal for the mansion . ] (Clint)
[Hence why he deserves respect . Satou-sama isSatou-sama . ] (Cell)
Clint was secretly amazed .
The guy named Cell in front of me, the man holding the source of money in this world seemed to respect Ryouta so seriously .
Even though he left disappointed… . but after leaving the mansion, this man completely surprised him .
Though, Clint thought it was fine .
The eyes of pure admiration within Cell convinced him .
Thanks to Ryouta, during an emergency, Shikuro would have a great person behind it to rely on .
Clint was convinced .
