Chapter 072

At the main street of Comer city where a lot of people were coming and going, regardless of day and night, a conspicuously prominent girl was standing . All the people that walked by turned and looked back once again at her .

The reason was because there were two dog-like black wolves with the girl . One was walking excitedly in front of her and the other was walking timidly behind her . The onlookers’ gazes fell on the black wolves then at the girl, who seemed to be the owner .

That was expected . The girl was a young dark elf with a still growing body, who would eventually grow up into an enchanting woman .

“Suke, please don’t walk behind like that, you are a wolf you should be proud of it . Coro, please calm down a little, you are like a sore thumb, standing out . ” The two wolves were scolded by Marifa . Suke rubbed his head on Marifa and let out a pathetic crie, while Coro was still waving his tail happily and didn’t realized that he had just been scolded . Marifa could only sigh a little seeing the two .

It was already Marifa’s 16th time inside the dungeon and every morning she always trained the black wolves before going to the dungeon in the afternoon . She also showed superb effort in training her skill . The two wolves that she brought today were one of the young and talented wolves . Although it took more effort to reach the store because of the two, she still arrived, not without struggling, of course .

She arrived at the slave shop by moving trough the crowd . The man was already waiting there . He looked at the dark elf girl and the two black wolves however his gaze was mainly fixated on the girl as if he want to devour her .

(She was still young but her body was not that bad . It was too bad I let her go . )

Coro let out a small growl when he felt the man’s gaze and Suke was looking up at Marifa uneasily .

“It’s been a while Dan, is Mago here?”

The man name was Dan, he was the grandson of the slave dealer Mago . However he was surprised that the beautiful girl seemed to know him .

“Why do you know my name?”

“Did you forget me already? I’m Marifa . You guys were taking care of me until a month ago . ”

“You are Marifa? That’s a lie!”

Dan of course knew Marifa . Marifa was an ugly girl with a blind eyes, a big scar on the neck, and was as skinny like as a skeleton . The dark elf in front of Dan’s eye was a girl that was not lacking anything . A healthy girl with a charming growing body .

“So, is Mago here?”

Dan nodded in a hurry and guided her to Mago’s room .

“Hoho, it’s been a long time . I’m surprised seeing all of your wounds healed . ” Despite his words, Mago was calm .

“Let’s stop with the joking . ”

“I do not remember telling you a joke . So, what is your business today?”

“Did you forget? Today is my first payment due date . Also you need to check the potion . ”

Marifa then took out potions from her item pouch that wass attached to the apron . The potions were nicely placed in a glass container with a lid . It would then have a label placed on them to be sold by Mago . The rumor of the first batch was already spread among adventurers and it was known they could only be bought trough him . Even if he was only running a slave trading post, he wanted to regain his former glory and open item shops .

“And this is the payment . Please look at it . ”

From her front pocket Marifa took out a coin pouch . Mago opened it and counted . It were 53 pieces of gold coins .

“How did Yu gather this?” Mago was not unreasonable in asking so . Speaking of the 53 gold coins, a C rank adventurer could barely gather them .

“It was earned from the dungeon . ”

Mago and Dan’s eyes opened when they heared that . Yu was able to obtain the secret to the potions, negotiate about the price, heal Marifa’s wounds, and now he heard about him being a strong adventurer .

“Hoho, although I heard that he had talent but to be able to earn this much in one month . ”

“I also have another thing to ask . ”

“What is it?”

“Gold flies and silver flies, despite the fact that we are soaking in their kindness, we are only flying around the house . ”

Dan tried to understand what she said . It was a saying among the citizens . “Nobles were a flock of flies that gathered around gold”, “merchants are silver” because the fact that nobility gold comes from the taxes and merchants silvers come from their profit . It was as if saying that they were doing nothing but being treated with kindness, so Marifa felt the same way about Yu .

“So, what is troubling you?”

“Do you have Lori flower?”

Dan became quiet hearing that .

“Lori flowers are quite unique . It was a white flower that could turn into red . ”

“Do you have it?”

“No . ”

“Please, tell me if you have some . ”

“Yes, it is regrettable I don’t have it this time . ”

After that Marifa resumed her duty . They decided the date of the next potion delivery and all other things . When she left, Mago immediately got a glass and poured sake and drank it . It was his usual routine after facing a noble opponent .

“Yu, is lunch ready yet? My stomach is getting noisy . ” Mussu said that while sitting on the sofa in the living room .

“So noisy . I will make it after Marifa comes back . It was your fault for coming here to have a meal anyway . ” Yu would genuinely wait for Marifa before making the lunch .

“Yu-san, please take this . ” Nungu had prepared crackers and grape juice with some fruits as a snack .

“Nungu, sorry to trouble you . ”

“No, it was my pleasure . I’m a butler so doing this kind of work is my job . Don’t mind me . ”

The feeling he emanated was the same as Stella however Yu hadn’t noticed yet .

Mussu and Nungu visited Yu everyday whenever they got freetime and having a meal together had become something regular .

“Yo Nungu, give me some wine . You have to prioritize in serving me . Me!”

“Don’t mind something so trivial . ”

“Eeh? This is not something trivial . I also know you did something in the back . Is it because of me or Yu? I heard you sneaked into Gorubado viscount’s and baron Peritto and suddenly they became quiet . ”

Yu and Nina were eating the crackers while watching the scene . Across them Lena was also thinking if she should get some snacks too .

“Nothing . I was just giving flowers as gift . ”

“Giving flowers?”

“Yes, a beautiful red colored flower . ”

Mussu heard that and lost his interest . While drinking the wine, every day seemed so peaceful .

(Tl note: if what I think is right, the Lori flowers that Marifa asked is the same flower that Nungu gives as a gift . It was basically a metaphor and the real meaning of the white turn red flowers is blood has been spilled? Lol)
