[Next, please]
Oops, it’s my turn. I put my sack on the counter. Since it’s only a small bag, the goblin ears burst out from the bag.
[I’ll checking it first… Oh dear, you sure hunted a lot. Did you go hunting with a big party?]
[Eeh, yeah, yes I did. We worked hard, combining our efforts. Everyone was in such high-spirits… I think]
I desperately talked about the imaginary party in my head, since the party itself didn’t exist, I can only imagine an party of air. Then, Greed talks in my mind.
[I can’t hold myself back from laughing]
[Shut up]
Oh crap. The reception person is unable to hear Greed’s voice, so he is looking at me perplexed. It’s because I was suddenly said [Shut up] during our conversation. I intended it for Greed, but the reception must be thinking it’s for him.
[I’m sorry. It’s nothing.]
From now on, when I exchange for rewards, it would be better restrain myself to 10 monsters to exchange like the other warriors do. Let’s give up on more than that. Every time, if I bring in a large amount of monster parts, everyone would think that it’s strange. Although it’s not a big deal, but let’s slow down my pace.
[What I have done those five years…]
Guuuu….
As the thoughts of Rafal and co. filled on my head, my stomach which should be satisfied until now by the overly-filling goblins, begins to growl. As if it’s was saying “I want to eat them, I want to eat them!

[Anyone can look good in good clothes, I see]
[Shut up]
[Did you just arrive? I have been waiting]
[What’s wrong?]
Roxy asks me curiously.
[Roxy-sama is too beautiful, so I couldn’t stop staring at you. I’m sorry]
Her cheeks redden, and then gently clears her throat.
[I, I occasionally wear my dress. You too, your appearance is different too. Saa, follow me]
In spite of the large residence, it’s very quiet. I have not seen the servants’ appearance, it was silent.
Followed by whistles of emptiness shortly after.
[This is…]
[Father, I’ve decided to employ him today. I hope my heart can be revived with this]
I cannot process the words that Roxy said just now.
[My father, he died three days ago in Gallia to the south]
[Gallia, huh?]
Roxy says, as if reading my anxiety.
[The cause of death is not because of monsters. In the Gallia, there are other causes too]
[I heard that the troops my father led were all annihilated. It’s unthinkable, a Heavenly Dragon flying that far away from its nest… After all, such a case has never been heard of in the last few millennia.]
[I’m finally done with the work for this morning. With Father’s funeral and a bunch of other things, it was hectic. Since I succeeded Father’s position, I am now officially the Heart Family head.]
Even in such a situation, Roxy was thinking about me and invited me here.
And here I was thinking of how should I deceive Roxy’s father who would interview me about my power…
Roxy-sama, I’m sorry, I am…
[Don’t make such a face, let the both of us grow the Heart Family together. Could you do that?]
[Yes, gladly]
That day, I became an employee of the Heart family.
