(POV Rika)

“That is not the agreement we reached before, Senior Ern! How can you retract your previous word!! "

“Miss Rika, as I said before, it seems like there was a misunderstanding. The price we agreed on earlier was not right, so if you want to keep this building, you can only accept the compensation necessary to have it.

…Otherwise, there is nothing I can do to help you. "

…It really seems that trying to hold a position without adequate backing is not that easy in this world. Since these problems did not occur at Delna, perhaps I had underestimated things a bit.

No, I'm wrong, it's not that in Delna that kind of thing didn't happen, just that it was thanks to Alexander who made our group grow in strength so fast, these things were quickly avoided or solved by ourselves!

Also… very quickly he won the support of the royal family of that place, therefore, fewer people were willing to offend us.

Unfortunately, here none of that is enough to help us now. Our strength is not comparable to the old man in front of me… well, if we used the weapons we have, I don't think we would lose either… or not so easily. The problem is the support behind this person, the [7 Mountains] sect… also, it seems to be someone related to the main families of the sect, which makes it more complicated!

Well, the truth is that the fact that it is only a senior of the [7 mountains] sect does not worry me too much, the girls who stay there are core disciples, they could probably easily solve this problem because of their position. Also, the princess of the Delna clan should be willing to help… the only thing that makes this matter somewhat difficult is I just never liked being dependent on other people.

If I can't do it myself, then I can only blame my lack of skill!

Also, I don't want to disturb the other girls... they are busy with their own business. And… well, I also have my own pride! While we've all accepted that we like the same person, still no one wants to appear weaker or less helpful than other girls!

…Or at least all work on their own things that they have to do to help Alexander with their best effort.

“Seinor Ern is right, Miss Rika. Things are not so easy in this Area… one does not know the problems that one can face here without sufficient strength. 

But you don't have to worry, as I said before, I am more than willing to help you! So everything will be fine if you let me help you, Miss Rika~

Major Ern, I will take care of paying what is needed to solve the problem of Miss Rika's group "

“Oh~ I see, I see ~ So you were acquainted with young Kenl? You all are so lucky to have someone of his talents as a friend! Someone like him who has just been promoted to core disciple certainly has a bright future~ "

"Hahaha, Senior Ern will make me ashamed, I still have a long way to go and I can't compare to Senior's experience~"

"Being so modest despite your  talents, young Kenl will indeed rise to great heights in the sect."

"" ... ""

…Fuck, how can there be such shameless people? Or do they really think that someone here would believe such an act of these two fools? They are underestimating our intelligence… no, the intelligence of all women!

Although if there is one thing that I must admit… is that they both have quite thick skin! Not caring about the cold and hard stares from all the girls here, they both continue to flatter each other!

Well, at least it's clear why all this trouble. A few weeks ago we had purchased this building to make it the headquarters of the [Alexander-sama's Servants] organization, and we spent these days quietly discussing various matters.

After meeting with the other girls and seeing that they were alright, that concern disappeared. Therefore, I could only focus on doing those things.

Unexpectedly, we ended up meeting this young Kenl… he has been a nuisance these last few days! The reason was none other than trying to chase me and the other girls! He was a persistent guy even though I tried to chase him away several times!!

Not even the cold stares and cutting words he receives from the girls seem to make him give up... I've even come to think that this guy has some strange fetish since this only seems to motivate him more!

Well… he's not the only one who girls treat like this, pretty much any man who sets his eyes on them will get the same treatment. Although that was to be expected given the things these girls went through before.

So it is not strange that the glances of other men towards them annoy them quite a bit. Interestingly, since as people get stronger their physique seems to improve, the appearance of these girls has improved a lot too. In addition, what saved them before not being killed was that their appearance was above average, so it is not surprising that now they attract a lot of attention.

…It's a shame that all this for them only meant more annoyance around them. Surely it is not easy for a man to get the attention of one of these girls.

No, well... there is only one person for whom the attitude of these girls totally changes...

“That is not necessary, we can work things out ourselves.

But Senior Ern, I'm sure that if the rumor that someone from the sect does not keep their word spreads, that will surely upset the people who run the sect a lot. "

"...You are threatening me? 

I don't know where you get so much value from! You dare to defame the prestige of the sect?"

"Oh ~ Of course I wouldn't dare smear the sect's name, but… I'm sure Senior Ern can't represent the entire sect."

"Y-You…"

I certainly didn't intend to spread such a rumor, it would be more troublesome than a help, after all, that would be insulting the entire sect. But if this happened, it would also be a big problem for this old man… I don't think his position is so high that they would defend him at all costs. He would become another sacrifice to uphold the sect's name.

That means that as a threat this worked very well! This could be seen by how he reacted! Hmp~ At least I have to let this old man know that it is not so easy to intimidate us!!

“Miss Rika… I'm really disappointed that you don't appreciate the help of others. Furthermore, as a core disciple now, I cannot remain silent as someone slanders the sect's name...

That is something quite serious… Senior Ern, let me take care of this, please. "

"Hmp~! It seems that these women need to understand where they are! I don't know where they came from, but this is the territory of the [7 Mountains] sect, not their backyard! So the rules are made by the people of this sect and not other people! "

"Hee~ I was wondering how long it would take to you show your true face, it seems like it was faster than I thought..."

I already had an idea that things could end like this… after all, people like that guy always ended up doing similar things. He probably got tired of acting sweet to chase us and now he will resort to harsh methods... he and several of his followers who until now were only watching us turns to me and the girls with eyes full of lust and come forward with big smiles on their faces.

As a result of this, the girls start to get their hands on the weapons… this became a bit troublesome now. Well, while the strength of these people was at the level of several large organizations in Delna, this did not scare the girls.

In fact, even if they don't use their weapons, they would surely defend themselves decently against them. While in that group there were about 3 people in the ninth limit according to the glasses Alexander gave me, all the 8 girls that I brought from Delna were now at that level. There were even some who had reached peak level 1 soul strength.

Maybe the only problem was the old man… I can see that he was at the 2nd limit of the second soul level. Also, defeating these people would only cause more trouble… well, I can't let them insult these girls or me either. If things get tough, even though I didn't want to, I'll have to resort to asking the other girls for a little help.

…Although I said that I did not want to do that since I had my own pride, this is less important than letting my companions suffer!

"" ... ""

"Rikaaa~!"

Then, while both groups looked at each other carefully and seemed to be waiting for a signal to start fighting, suddenly a voice is heard and breaks the heavy atmosphere in the place... also when I turned in the direction of the sound that came from the door, there were several people entering... and what looked like a rapidly moving red blob comes up to where I was and hugs me!

"E-Eh? A-Alexander? When you return?"

Yes, it was about Alexander and the girls within the sect. Since I hadn't seen him in a while, I was actually quite happy for him to come back! I couldn't stop a big smile from forming on my face as I hugged him back! But…

"H-Hey, where are you touching?!"

…This little guy after inadvertently hugging me, his hands start to get a bit dishonest! Also, after recovering from the surprise of seeing him, I remember that there were many people around us!! Since this was quite embarrassing, I pushed him to separate us!!

“Heee~ But I missed you so much, Rika. Let me hold you a little more! "

"...Who are you?"

Before he can hug me again, Senior Eren's voice prevents him to do it... I must thank him for this as it was difficult to reject him... after all, I also wanted to hug him and show some affection! And even more so now that this brat has begun to be intimate with other girls! I did not want to lose with the others either!!

…But for everything there is a right time and place.

“…I am Alexander. Who are you and what do you want, old man?"

…It seems that he did not like that our meeting was interrupted, Alexander shows obvious hostility to Sinor Ern. Seeing this, the old man also shows displeasure and was preparing to say something about Alexander's attitude... But before he can do so, the group from the core disciple Kenl´s begin to murmur among themselves avoiding him to do this.

"I-Isn't that the core disciple Alexander?"

"B-Besides, all those girls behind him are also core disciples..."

"W-What are they doing here?"

"N-Now that I think about it... the name of this organization displayed outside didn't have his name?"

""...""

What Senior Ern hears makes the anger shown earlier greatly reduced... even so, he still showed enough self-confidence.

“Well… it seems that you are a core disciple… still, you should respect your Elders and Seniors. You're still far from someone like our family's main disciple Velrut… you shouldn't act like you're the best in the world, boy! "

"..."

From what I've heard, the rank of a core disciple is even higher than an Outer Court Senior… so, not being able to depend on this, it seems that he decided to take the status out of his family.

Upon mentioning this, Alexander falls silent... since he was a person from the main disciple's family, I was worried that this would cause him trouble...

“Perverted brat… you forgot who Velrut is again, didn't you? Now that guy really makes me feel pity for him... "

“…o-of course not! I-I remember him pretty well, just… I was wondering if he still held a grudge against me "

“Lie, I'm sure you were wondering who that old man was talking about! Furthermore, it is obvious that this man must bear a mortal grudge against you! "

"…Yes Master. After you left him without being able to have children, he must totally hate you. So please let me take care of him to avoid any problem~"

"... I-I've already said it several times, isn't it, I was helping him!"

"You are so cruel... although I can't say that the relationship he has with his sister seems normal to me, you didn't have to go that far to stop him"

"T-That isn't like that! Why doesn't anyone believe me?! You will see soon... just wait and that guy will say I was right! "
