A few minutes later, a large number of members of the Knights of the Inquisition called in by Miliel, the vice-president of the Knights of the Inquisition.

When we seize Ferdinand's body, which has been turned into a demon, we are listening to the owner of the Golden Jumping Horse Pavilion to hear the circumstances.

I guess there's something nasty about you sweating cold in a lot of places.

There is no such thing as a human being who is in the business of this hand in a slum and has no place to be offended. But the shopkeeper doesn't seem to be involved in this case. I would argue that I was only lending Ferdinand and his business partner a place.

Listening to that story from the side, Miliel, who was in command in the field, spoke to me.

Once again she bowed her head deeply, thanking her.

"Thank you very much, Lord Kite, for your help."

"I'm not thankful. This is what I like to do."

"But if it weren't for Lord Kite, we would have been wiped out."

"Speaking of which, is your men's Knight Hall all right? Looks like they took a heavy toll."

"I can't say enough that there's nothing else in life,... Because the devil's claw is poisonous. I'm calling a priest who specializes in healing right now, hopefully in time -"

Before Miliel finished saying that, I headed in front of a falling knight.

When I asked the knight who was doing the restorative magic to give me the place, I cast the magic.

The knights wounds were already blocked, but they look unusually pale. Everyone was swelling their faces in purple.

Chanting the spell, he hung the magic of "Detoxification".

When I do the magic, the breath of the knights who were hyperventilating is calmed, and the purple complexion gradually regains its skin tone.

Miliel crushes when she sees the sight.

"Shh, wow, is Lord Kite good at healing magic too!?

"It's not so. But earlier, we analyzed Ferdinand's magical properties. You can roughly grasp the magic composition of the poison. And I just changed the routine."

"That's the magician we expected. Is that a sage class?"

"Well, we're supposed to be fourth in rank."

When I said that, I asked her again.

"Earlier, Chloe told me that Lord Miliel was here to ask me for help."

"Yeah, I'm sorry about the capital, I wanted you to help me sweep away the wicked."

"I see, but now you can sweep away a bunch of evil people nesting in Lengrad,"

"Yes."

And, Miliel shakes her neck vertically.

"Then I don't know if I can help you. I'm sorry, but I'd like a reward for this job."

"Is that a reward?

"Can't you? I've worked a lot to help improve security in the capital."

"No, that's not true. No matter, I'll prepare it. I'll have it delivered to my home at a later date, so say what it's worth"

"In the future, please take care of me and my daughter so that the machine doll can live quietly. That's the reward."

"... I see you're an abnegation"

"If my maid or master asks, demand more, but what's important to me now is to live quietly with my daughter."

"Okay. Then let's arrange it that way. If you have any trouble, come to the Knights of Episcopal Church Inquisition stuffing in the capital at any time. I'll help."

But she adds.

"We were originally looking for competent magicians like you. And I've confirmed that you're a very capable magician. You may wish to cooperate in this case in the future, but is that okay?

It would be easier if I could say "not nice," but the woman in front of me, a person named Miliel, seemed to make sense of the joke.

Besides, the woman in front of you is a heretic inquisitor.

I don't want to offend your heart certificate.

It would be important if she were to become oblivious to her so that she could explore her surroundings any further.

It could expose that Fiona is a homunculus.

In that case, I would also be an inquisitor.

No, it was never up to me to be your questioner. I just can't stand that messing up my daughter's future.

If caught by the Episcopal Church, it would be good and closed for life. Worst fire ever.

It was imperative that if captured by the Empire, it would be turned into an experimental object.

I don't deserve such a future for my daughter.

Fiona's future depends on living very mediocre and having happy days.

If there is a factor that inhibits it, it will be the muscle to remove it.

So I dared to jump into the fire.

If you become a collaborator of the heretical inquisitor, you will encounter it accordingly, and you will not receive any more prying, that's how you calculated it.

"Okay. I don't know if it helps, but as a 'good citizen', I'll work with you if I can."

and asked Miliel to shake his hand. Miliel, who shakes my hand back with pleasure.

The power was powerful for women, but it was still soft at the hands of women and somewhere warm.

Not long after we met, this woman is trustworthy. I could be so sure.

When I finished shaking hands, I showed her my back.

"Lord Kite, which way?

When I look back, I answer.

"As I said earlier, I'm going home. I have a daughter about my age, and I'm worried about leaving her alone."

"Besides, I have to take a bath with you."

and Chloe, who was lying beside him, comes to a tear.

"Oh, I did. But I hurt my right shoulder as much as I wanted. I don't think I can do it today."

I'm seriously depressed. bother with it.

I don't care if I can't take a bath with my daughter. I need to know how to explain this shoulder wound.

Miliel offered me a solution when a big adult, a wise man who lived for a thousand years, was seriously haunting his head.

"It's a shoulder wound, but if you ask a healing expert who's coming up now, we'll be completely blocked in three days"

"Seriously, that helps"

"In the meantime, I can't take a bath, but I have a plan."

"Suggestion?

"That's right. Excuse me, but tomorrow, a vendor will come to Lord Kite's house, will you accept it?

"I don't mind that."

So Miliel was quick, giving some instructions to his men.

"What did you order?

Naturally, I ask, Miliel just said, "Enjoy till the day".

The next day, the vendor who comes.

It was the Dwarf architect who came.

When Dwarf's architect skipped the carpenter's instructions, he completed what was three days old.

What is finished is the latest bathroom.

A luxurious tub in a fire Holy Spirit style boiler. Plus, the interior looks like a royal nobleman.

They say it's just a gift of heart from the Knights of the Inquisition, but Fiona joys and braves when she sees it.

"Wow."

And when I jumped, I just grabbed my hand trying to get in with you.

No matter, I had no reason to say no, but this is what I thought when I took a bath with my daughter.

I'm renting a house here, but is it okay to do this?

And don't float when the bathroom is so splendid.

I thought so, but I didn't say it and honestly enjoyed bathing with my daughter.

It's been a long time since I've had my daughter wash her back.

My daughter washed her back with a sponge, but she emitted this dialogue along the way.

"Father, what is it, your back hasn't gotten smaller?

As a father, it is a delightful dialogue. Because I can guess why.

"Your father didn't grow smaller, Fiona grew bigger."

Telling Fiona why, her daughter seemed convinced.

"Right. I must have grown up."

When I heard the words, my daughter was washing her smile and my back extensively.

One day when this back got even smaller, my daughter would stop bathing with me, but the feeling that she would come sooner then and that she wouldn't come forever, they were both at best.
