As soon as I walked out of the gate, I used my Teleportation Magic Tool.
Up to this point, I came back with Lillywood-san’s continuation of her guide to the Demon Realm, but since there’s nothing particularly new for me to see on the road to the gate of the Human Realm, I decided that I would just teleport.
In an instant, the landscape around me was distorted, and I could already see Lilia-san’s mansion in front of me.
Hmmm, it’s quite convenient but…… I still feel a little sick after using it. I had no problems when I used that gate connecting the Human Realm and the Demon Realm but…… Does the magic power used have some relation to that?
Anyway, I returned to Lilia-san’s mansion safely.
When I moved to that room to tell Lilia-san that I was back, Lilia-san and Lunamaria-san were inside and greeted me with a gentle smile.
[Welcome back, Kaito-san. How was the Demon Realm?]
[I have returned. Yes, it’s such a beautiful, vast place, and I enjoyed just looking at the scenery.]
[Is that so, that’s good to hear…… By the way, there’s something I’d like to ask you……]
[Yeah?]

Lilia-san nodded with a gentle smile on her face, but for some reason, her expression changed to a serious one.
As I tilted my head at this situation, Lilia-san slowly folded her hands in front of her face before she spoke.
[I- I know that it might be impossible but…… You’re not going to tell me that you actually met with Dragon King-sama, right?]
[……I’m sorry. We met.]
[…………..]
[My Lady!?]
When I honestly answered the question Lilia-san asked me with a pale expression on her face…… Lilia-san slammed her face on her desk.
[……Why…… is this person…… always meeting one of the Six Kings everytime you go out……]

[My Lady, please keep yourself composed, they may have just met and no real connections have been done yet!]
[T- Thank you, Luna…… Kaito-san, ummm, errr…… Please don’t tell me that you actually got along with him or anything like that, right……]

[………………]
[Kaito-san…… Why are you looking away?]
Her hands trembling with a pale expression on her face, Lilia-san…… looks really scary.
However, it isn’t like I can just not tell her…… If I were to tell her about this later, she will definitely strangle me again……
Thinking about that, without a second thought, I took out the scale Magnawell-san gave me from inside my Magic Box.
[……He gave me his scale.]
[…………….]
All expressions disappeared from Lilia-san’s face.
The air was so frightening that I couldn’t help but straighten up…… but just like a puppet who lost its strings, Lilia-san’s body collapsed.
[……Kyyuuuu~~]

[My Lady!?]
The scale of over 5 meters long that I took out seemed to have exceeded Lilia-san’s tolerance limit in an instant, and as her eyes upturned, she fell down on her desk.
Yep, it feels like another preaching is confirmed to arrive later…… However, I don’t think this whole situation was caused by me, and I think it was the Phantasmal King’s fault though……
After a while, Lilia-san’s consciousness returned. She scurries to the corner of the room though, and holds her knees on her embrace.
[……Seriously…… Kaito-san, you’re strange…… you’re abnormal…… Why is it that…… this only happened while I’m the one looking after the otherworlders……]
[My Lady…… you poor thing……]

[Why are you laughing there!?]
Lunamaria-san was still the same, smiling at the depressed Lilia-san, and was instantly scolded.
However, what should I do…… It might be bad for Lilia-san’s heart and I’m really apologetic for her but……
[U- Ummm, Lilia-san?]

[Yes?]
[……Errr, I’ve got something for you from Isis-san……]
[………………]
Hearing the words I timidly said, Lilia-san looks like she was about to start crying…… No, there are already tears in her eyes.
Even though I’m feeling uncomfortable since it feels like I’m bullying her, I place the jewelry that Isis-san told me to give to Lilia-san on her desk.
[……W- W- W- What…… i- is this……]
[These are the things Isis-san wanted me to give you, they’re blue diamonds and ice crystals.]
[That’s a tremendous amount. Moreover, all of them have a wonderful depth of color, My Lady…… Wouldn’t this be equivalent to a tremendous amount of money?]
[…… No…… more……]
Looking at the beautiful blue jewels piled up like a mountain, Lilia-san holds her head in her hands and hides her face under her knees.

Thereupon, after trembling for a while, she vigorously looks up and……
[NO MOOOOORRREEEEEEE! KAITO-SAN, YOU IDIIIOOOOOTTTTT!!!]
……started crying.
[WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO WITH THIS AMOUNT OF JEWELRY!?]

[Gueehhhh!? Li- Lilia-san, p- please calm down……]
[WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS DOING THINGS THAT WOULD HURT MY STOMACH!!!? GEEZ, JUST OPEN UP A HOLE IN MY STOMACH, WILL YOU!!!?]
[It huhts, Li- Lilia-san…… I give up, so phease rehease me……]
Grabbing my collar, she began to violently rock my body back and forth in the air.
However, Lilia-san looks like she really had enough, looking really pitiful with tears streaming down her face, so I can’t strongly go against her.
How should I say this…… I’m really sorry, Lilia-san.

[My Lady, there’s something I’d like to ask before you make Miyama-sama faint……]
[WHAT IS IT, LUNA!? I’M BUSY RIGHT NOW……]
[No, it’s just that there’s something bothering me for a long time…… My Lady, you used to turn bright red right away when you touch a man who wasn’t part of the family…… but you’re fine with Miyama-sama?]
[……Ehh?]
Hearing the words Lunamaria-san told her so matter-of-factly, the strength in Lilia-san’s grip on my collar weakens, and my body falls down to the ground.
Released from the agony of feeling like I’m about to lose my breath, I loudly breathed out and turned my gaze towards Lilia-san…… whose face had turned bright red like a boiled octopus.
[……Eh? Was I just touching Kaito-san?]
[Now, or rather, you’ve already been close to him a few times already. Your faces was so close that they were almost one breath away from each other.
[Ehh? Awa— awawa—That is because, ummm, my head was filled with lots of things, so I wasn’t aware of it— awawawawa.]
With a face so red that it looks like smoke is about to come out of her ears, Lilia-san flusteredly muttered, her eyes circling around the room.

I wonder why, but it’s just that based on the experience I had until now…… She will probably faint sooner or later.
[I- I- I…… to- to- touched Kaito-san…… Kyuuu~~]

[Lilia-san!?]
As I thought, Lilia-san’s eyes upturned, and she collapsed on the ground.
Hurriedly running over to her, I checked whether she’s injured or not for the time being before I turned to Lunamaria-san.
[……Lunamaria-san. What’s going on here?]
[Probably because she’s raised in an all-female environment…… She’s not immune to men at all, so just shaking their hands is enough to make her turn bright red. However, I was wondering why she didn’t seem to be turning bright red even as she touched Miyama-sama all these times…… I see, she was simply too preoccupied with other things to be aware of it until now huh……]
[……You mean, just like what happened earlier?]
[Perhaps, my remark reminded her of all the times she has ever touched Miyama-sama, and the embarrassment overwhelmed her…… What a pity.]
[……You did it on purpose, didn’t you?]

[……No way……]
Now that she mentioned it, thinking back, Lilia-san indeed only touches me when she’s basically confused…… She would never touch me unless she’s one step away from passing out.
I never really questioned it since she’s a woman of marriageable age but…… I see, it isn’t that she’s being reserved, but she was completely vulnerable to men.
Dear Mom, Dad—— I’m really sorry for the trouble I’ve been causing Lillia-san. But this time, the cause of her fainting was different from usual—— It was out of embarrassment.
In the evening light, a figure dressed in black appears in a certain miscellaneous goods store.
The person takes one of the daggers hanging on the wall of the miscellaneous goods store, wraps a black cloth around it and then, places it on the counter.
[……A commission huh?]
It’s the hidden face of this miscellaneous goods store’s owner…… A sign of a commission for an underworld worker.
The shopkeeper clad in a stuffed costume looks at the figure clad in black before asking in a cold voice.
[……I would like you to abduct a certain person.]

[……Not kill, but abduct huh……]
[Yeah, he’s someone whose existence itself has worth.]
[Well, I suppose that depends on who it is and how much you’re paying.]
Following the stuffed costume-wearing shopkeeper…… Alice’s words, the black-clad figure took out a paper with his target’s physiognomy and white gold coins from his pocket, placing it on the counter.
(T/N: It’s those papers with a face drawn and a description written on it. I think.)
[10 white gold coins as an advance payment…… 30 white gold coins for your success.]
[That’s quite the tasty treat…… So, this person…… is someone I’ve seen first huh?]
[He’s not a being from this world. He’s a human from another world…… The name is “Miyama Kaito”……]
[Heeehhh~~ An otherworlder huh…… I see.]
To the words told by the black-clad figure, Alice replies to him indifferently, without getting shaken at all.

Thereupon, after looking at the physiognomy for a while, she picks up the white gold coins.
[……I will accept it. When’s the deadline?]
[The sooner you can, the better…… I need you to bring him to the place stated in there.]
[So, I’m not handing it over to you, but bring him here? Am I going to deal with a pretty dangerous person here?]
[……Here’s the information about him.
Saying that, Alice flips through the proffered bundle of papers, and without seeming to be bothered at all, she spoke.
[……Well, I don’t see any problem. Then, it’ll be in a few days later……]
[I’m counting on you.]

Hearing Alice’s words as she tells him that she’ll accept the request, the black-clad figure turns away, as if to say he has nothing more to say, leaving only those few words.
After seeing the figure off, Alice looks at the paper with Kaito’s face drawn on it and mutters to no one.

[……Well, this is one of the paths fate leads us huh…… What a shame. I like Kaito-san quite a bit but……]
The eyes of the masked girl in the stuffed costume, illuminated by the light shining through the window were…… as cold as ice.

Serious-senpai: “I have come to chew gum and spread seriousness…… and I’m all out of gum.”
The Underworld King began shadowing.
The Death King began to warm up.
The God of Creation began to monitor.
Serious-senpai: “……Oh, I still have gum here.”
Well, it might be a bit preemptive to say this, but it’s the start of Alice’s capture.
T/N: The author didn’t specify who is capturing who, just saying.
