CH 45

Chapter 45 - New Resident

Shylock Mansion

When Ritone returned home, he met with Milky who was being held by Mother.

「Hmm. It seems like they somehow managed to get back in one piece. This guy must have the luck of the devil.」

Though she said that, she seemed worried about Ritone.

「Kyui~Kyui~!」

The lonely Milky, who had been left behind for a while, glomped Ritone with delight.

「Thanks to Master’s milk, we were able to help the people infected by Tsuchigumo poison.」

As he said that, he returned the remaining milk. There was only a tiny bit left over at the bottom of the PET bottle, though.

「Good. Keep it. Perhaps you might need it later on.」

Mother smiled wryly as she shook her head.

「That's right. When I drink Mother-sama’s milk, I feel energized. I felt that my magic power had risen, why is that?」

「... I also felt it. My magic became stronger than usual.」

Shylock Castle

After Mother’s training ended, Ritone showed Littlette around the castle.

「Then shall we tour the first floor?」

「That's fine, but... Are you okay?」

Littlette was worried about Ritone. As his entire body was covered in wound, his face was bruised as well.
