Chapter 283

Chapter 283 – Adding another employer

“I’ll be in your care from today . ” 

During the day inside the mansion, at the branch office <Swallow’s Repayment> .

The girl who has the same uniform as Elza, Ena joins the roster .

While bowing, she spoke in a rather polite manner .

However, the moment she lifts her head up, it’s back to her usual self .

“Aren’t you amazing Ryouta-san, to the point that you need two exclusive assistant . You happy? Hey, are you happy about it?” (Ena)

While getting close to me, she used her elbow to nudge my hands .

“I don’t know whether I’m happy, as I still do not fully understand the situation yet…… . . ” (Ryouta)

This morning, after I was done with breakfast, I wanted to leave to a dungeon when suddenly she visited .

Then she started saying “I’ll be in your care” and “Are you happy”, all out of a sudden .

I don’t even know how to react at this point .

“Don’t you know? You were simply amazing yesterday . ” (Ena)

“Yesterday…… . . ? Aaah . ” (Ryouta)

While smiling bitterly, I head towards Elza and bowed at a 90 degree angle .

“I’m sorry, you had a rough time yesterday, right?” (Ryouta)

“N-No, that’s not it . ” (Elza)

“Nah you didn’t . In fact, you did a fantastic job as well . You should’ve seen her, she was drowning in a sea of potatoes . ” (Ena)
“No, I did inconvenienced her, physically speaking . ” (Ryouta)

While feeling bad, I bowed down once again .

“Since we needed to help Elza, I came from the main branch to sort things out for her . You know, everyone was shocked that their mouths were open when they heard about it . I was impressed that only Ryouta-san could do such a thing that I sighed and ascended into heaven . ” (Ena)

What the heck is with that last sentence! Well she’s just exaggerating as usual .

“So is it confirmed that you’re gonna be helping Elza out?” (Ryouta)

“Well, we did have a talk about adding another person to help her out previously . ” (Ena)

Then, Ena winked at me and “Eh~” me .

She never changed huh .

“Is that so?” (Ryouta)

“Even though Elza alone is enough to do the job at a daily basis, but look at what you did Ryouta-san, now she can’t handle that much you know?” (Ena)

“Aah…… . you’re right . ” (Ryouta)

Since I’m reflecting on what I’ve done, I can only bitterly smile and nod at what she’s saying .

Yes, I have many non-daily events .

Whenever there’s something happening, I would dive straight in . Whatever request from Cell, I’ll do it, or when there are people in need, I would go and help them .

So as what Ena has said, I do a lot of odd jobs .

“And that’s why . When this kind of thing were to happen, we need another person to come and handle things as well . Just like what has happened yesterday . ” (Ena)

I bitterly smiled again .

Within seconds, I sent in tens of kilos of potatoes to the mansion, like winning a jackpot on a slot machine, where the coins be rolling out like crazy .

Imagining it makes me a little happy .

“So, I’ll be joining the party as of today . ” (Ena)

“I see, but then, why must it be Ena?” (Ryouta)

“Eh?” (Ryouta)

Ena was seriously shocked at what I asked .

“Since I’m always sent to various places whenever something happens, so I’m always moving around a lot . ” (Ryouta)

“Uhmm, well…I wonder~ . ” (Ena)

For some reason Ena couldn’t say anything, and averted her eyes away from me .

Thinking that it was strange, I pushed on further .

“I think that <Swallow’s Repayment> is a rather large company, so isn’t it strange that they specifically sent you to help me?” (Ryouta)

“T-That is… . . that… . . you know . ” (Ena)

“Hm?” (Ryouta)

I further inquired, and it was hard for her to respond .

“R-Right, that’s because you’ve always been helping out my family . ” (Ena)

It’s as though she suddenly thought up of an excuse to say .

I see, it’s alright even if I don’t know .

“What’s more——” (Ena)

She suddenly spoke again, and her stuttered self vanished .

She suddenly smiled devilishly .

“Since I’ve met you many times before, it’s easier for you to have someone familiar to handle things right . ” (Ena)

“That’s true . ” (Ryouta)

As someone who I know besides Elza in <Swallow’s Repayment>, that person would be Ena .

If you think about it, she is suitable for the job as she’s a friend of Elza as well .

‘Hey …Stop lying already Ena . ’ (Elza)

“Huh? What did you just say Elza?” (Ryouta)

“Uhh, nothing at all . ” (Elza)

“I see?” (Ryouta)

Well, if it’s nothing then that’s great .

Well then………If that’s the case .

I went to the entrance of the branch office and shouted .

“Emily~ Are you there~” (Ryouta)

After calling out, I heard a cute “I’m here desu~~~”, then soon after a pitter-patter sound coming closer .

“Hey, what do you mean by me lying . ” (Ena)

“A liar’s a liar . I know it . ” (Elza)

“W-What are you even saying . ” (Ena)

“I don’t like the way you’re tricking him . Even though I don’t blame you . ” (Elza)

“……It’s subtle . But I guess you’re right . ” (Ena)

“……Un, I got it . ” (Elza)

Elza and Ena were both talking behind me, and I guess they’re done talking .

Since they’re friends, I’m sure they’re just catching up on some stuff, so I didn’t pay much attention to what they’re saying .

After awhile, Emily arrived, and I asked her to prepare a room for Ena .

It’s important to give her her own personal space after all .

“Oh right, Ena, can you wait here for a while?” (Ena)

“Hm? That’s okay, but what’s up?” (Ena)

“Just wait and see . ” (Ryouta)

I asked her to wait for a moment, and I dashed out of the office .

Going down to the basement, I used the Drop Bullet to get myself another Golden Key .

Then returning back to the office, I handed Ena the key who was making a fox like expression .

“Here you go . ” (Ryouta)

“This is?” (Ena)

“I’ll explain to you later, but think of it as a master key of some sort . ” (Ryouta)

“Aah, okay… . . ” (Ena)

For some reason, her face was slightly red and confused .

“I can’t believe it leveled up from here . ” (Elza)

Elza looked amazed from the side .
