Chapter 56: Summarize

* bang *

It was only after seeing Elizabeth leave that Desmond was relieved.

"Let's get ready to go home." He then turned to Laura, who had been smiling to herself.

"But… what about Annie?"

When Laura heard Desmond's order, she didn't accept it right away but dared to ask back.

Maybe because of what happened earlier, Laura forgot her position until glared at by Desmond again.

After seeing Laura obey again, only then did Desmond open his mouth.

"It depends on-"

Desmond stopped talking; he received a message from Annie.

Master, I'm sorry, I failed. The spy headed towards the current master's location in the form of a bird.

Desmond frowned.

Fine, you come back safely.

Yes, Master.

"Let's go; looks like the spy came here."

"Eh?... So how are we going to-"

Her word was halted when she saw Desmond suddenly chant a spell, and their body glow for an instant before returning to normal.

"I know what you want to say; in short, we are nowhere to be seen. So walk and act as the wind."

Seeing Laura's shocked expression, Desmond knew it would be complicated to explain everything, not to mention Laura's very troublesome nature.

…

Meanwhile, Elizabeth, who had run away from Desmond's room, was outside the shop. She was aware of her embarrassing behavior and wanted to get information from Desmond, but she was too embarrassed, so she chose to wait for Desmond...

Elizabeth received information from her father that her father's friend Grimm was investigating a person with one hand. It just so happened that after she treated Desmond, she received this information.

After waiting for some time, Elizabeth finally saw the shop door open.

"Master Des-"

But it wasn't Desmond who was seen, but someone else.

"Eh? Didn't I already tell everyone to leave? "

She wanted to ask the person, but then she saw another person coming out of the shop.

This confused her, and her gaze was now only focused on the shop door. Without realizing it, she had seen people coming and going for more than 1 hour.

"Waaa."

Elizabeth suddenly jumped up in surprise, as she felt someone touching her from behind. She turned around only to see Clark with her mother.

"Hello, Eliz, what are you doing here? Let's go in. "

Yasi and Clark were standing in front of Elizabeth; Yasi seemed to be carrying some clothes that she wanted to keep in her shop.

"Eh .. yes, mam."

Elizabeth's brain was slow; she thought about Desmond until she didn't realize or didn't hear a word from Clark's mother.

Meanwhile, Clark, who had been smiling, approached Elizabeth, who looked confused.

"What is wrong?"

He held her hand as he brought his face closer and looked straight into Elizabeth's eyes.

-Town Square-

The atmosphere of the town square atmosphere at noon is tranquil because of the hot sun; you can see the merchants also fanning their bodies with fans who move independently and float in the air.

However, they then heard the sound of footsteps; this made their expressions turn to joy.

But this was only for a moment before they were finally disappointed that what they saw was not a person, but just a gentle breeze.

"Haah ... it's always like this, every afternoon the square will be quiet, and the shops will be crowded." One of the merchants in the shop complained to the other merchants.

"How could anyone want to shop in the heat this season?" one of the merchants answered in a helpless tone.

"How about we report this to the king?"

"What do you want to report, asking the king to make a giant tent? Hahaha. "The merchants laughed at the idea he heard, and the other merchants laughed at this.

The atmosphere of the town square, which had been deserted, became bustling with this humor, but it was only a moment before they heard a voice.

* crash *

The boxes in the middle of the plaza suddenly fell, and when they saw it, a sudden bright light shone into their eyes, blinded them, and it made them dazzle before their vision finally returning to normal.

"Did something strange happen?" one of the merchants asked while looking around.

"Maybe it's just wind?"

"Yes, maybe ..."

Seeing the messy boxes, they all go back to tidying them up. This box contains their unsold merchandise yesterday and hopes someone buys it because it looks mysterious.

Therefore, almost all the merchants put their box in the middle of the square, containing their name and merchandise contents.

Meanwhile, in Desmond's situation.

After he exited the clothes shop and under Elizabeth's watch, Desmond and Laura hurriedly left and headed for their house, passing through the town square.

Because Laura is not accustomed to not being seen, she always almost greets and bumps into people around her.

Which made Desmond's annoyed; if it weren't for him using the Power Boost yesterday, maybe he wouldn't need the help of this annoying maid right now.

Even so, they still ran smoothly, but all that changed when Laura hit the box in the middle of the town square.

Desmond was forced to activate his spell to create a diversion and cast a spell to make him and Laura disappear again.

Since then, he has been in a bad mood, and he doesn't want to hear Laura's voice anymore, only orders her via magic messages, and only speaks when necessary.

…

After several minutes of walking, they finally arrived at the gate of their house. Desmond had previously sent a message to the gatekeeper to open the door.

For a long time, the guards who had worked with the Desmond family never understood even the nature of their masters; they just had to carry out their duties without question.

Desmond managed to get into his house without attracting much people's attention; they saw Desmond's gate open and only thought that the guard opened the door because they wanted to show Desmond's house's size.

…

Arriving at their house's main door, then Desmond deactivated his spell, and slowly the light that enveloped their bodies scattered and then disappeared.

Laura then knocked on the door, and Desmond's maids opened it very wide.

When the maids saw Desmond's condition, almost all of the maids acted like Laura, and some were like Annie; they only saw him with a worried look.

Desmond was merely ignorant of this and continued his usual activities.

...

After changing clothes, explaining the situation again, being served food by the maids, only then could Desmond return to his room.

This time it wasn't Laura who escorted him to the room, but another senior maid.

The maid laid Desmond on the bed, and after asking if there was no other need, the maid left.

"Ah ... today feels really hard for me ..."

Remembering the incident of being chased by people from the organization, staying at the guild until he accidentally met Elizabeth and tricked the spy, Desmond felt that this was indeed the most challenging day he had ever experienced after reincarnation.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot."

He chants a spell and sends a message to Annie, asking how the situation is.

.

Meanwhile, in a small alley, a woman was seen sitting with torn clothes showing her charming body parts resting on a pile of demon corpses.

"Aaah… this is so tiring. It seems that the young master has managed to overcome the spy somehow, but the young master hasn't given the order to return home yet. "

Annie, who was sitting on top of the demon, just received a message from Laura saying they had arrived safely.

Not only were the guards trained, but even the maids in the Desmond family also had to at least have the ability to fight demons.

Even Laura, whose appearance and reckless nature could be said to be almost as strong as Annie, only Laura was a witch that was not very suitable for close combat.
