"Huh~"

The experience of the past two years flashed like a revolving lamp in his mind. Watz put the exquisite coffee cup back on the table with a gloomy face. At this time, all the coffee in the cup had been drunk by him.

A strange red light flashed in his eyes, and Watz stood up firmly, "Boss, pay."

‘I’m not wrong! The one who is wrong must be this world. As long as you do this business, even Master Hugo will…’

Just as Watz was crazy about various thoughts, among the three of him who had been regarded as harmless as humans and animals, the young man suddenly spoke quietly.

"A fleeing wanted criminal, former Secretary of the Kleister Chamber of Commerce, are you still obsessed with it?"

“!!”

‘This voice!’

Watz, who had just taken out his shriveled wallet and was about to pay the bill to the shop owner, was stunned. He still remembered the elegant word, but revealed the calm tone of the noble's unique majesty in his words.

"Kay...Kayne?"

Watz turned his gaze stiffly toward Ryan, who was still sitting at the table calmly, and did not notice that at this time, Altina had already disappeared in Ryan's arms.

Ryan chuckled and waved to Watz, "Ha~ I didn't expect that Watz's former sales director still remembers me, is the life of escape interesting?"

After Watz came to his senses, he tightened his muscles all over his body, and the red light in his eyes seemed to have become deeper. The old man standing in front of him could even see the strange purple-black aura from Watz.

'This is……'

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he was still hunching over and maintaining his original movements, Ryan was surprised to feel the powerful fighting spirit gradually emerging from the other person's body.

‘Just kidding? Now whenever you meet an old man on the roadside, he is a master?’

"I……"

Watz lowered his head and clenched his fists, and Ryan and Miltio looked at him calmly.

"I won't be caught! I must prove myself! The mall is like a battlefield, and my career is justice..."

With a harsh word in his mouth, he turned around and was about to escape to the door, Watz hit a hard object sadly. He had no combat ability and screamed and fell to the ground.

What stood in front of him was a strange black puppet. The material that made this puppet did not look like metal, but was some kind of smooth material similar to ceramic.

"Target, capture."

A slightly cold and pleasant girl voice came from behind the black puppet. Without waiting for Watz to get up again, the black puppet easily pressed Watz with one arm, and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not move at all.

"Let me go! I won't fall here. You are all stumbling blocks that hinder my idea. I want to crush you!"

Watz, whose eyes were red, seemed to have completely lost his mind. He was still struggling wildly while the lightsaber was pressed against the center of gravity of his body, completely ignoring his violent friction with the ground and oozing bloody skin.

"Oh~"

Ryan sighed softly, "This is the first time I have seen someone who is deeply controlled by curses. I can no longer communicate with my words. Yartina, knock him out."

"yes."

After receiving the order from Ryan, the lightsaber connected to Yartina's heart immediately hit Watz's head with another arm.

"Um!"

Watz, who had purple and black aura erupted all over his body, finally rolled his eyes and fainted. As he lost consciousness, the black aura disappeared immediately.

After subduing Watz, Ryan apologized to the relieved old man behind the counter, "Boss, I'm sorry to cause trouble for you. This man is a wanted man. Letting him continue to flee may damage the social stability of Lamar State."

The old man smiled and bowed to Ryan with a standard housekeeper etiquette. "If you don't know, Mr. Kane is so honored to be here. It is a good idea to catch the wanted criminals. Please don't mind."

"oh?"

Ryan and Miltio looked at each other, and a trace of understanding flashed in their eyes at the same time.

'This old man should be a retired housekeeper in Edel's family, right?'

Ryan has long been unable to complain about the combat effectiveness of the housekeeper and maid in Semlia.

Although not all maids and housekeepers are monsters with amazing combat power, as long as they have spare energy, every noble will usually raise one or two housekeepers.

"Grandpa Knicks, what happened?"

The sound of Watz's yelling before spread throughout the rest station. When he heard the movement downstairs, a gentle and slow-tongued female voice came from the second floor.

Although the old man known as the Knicks could not see the scene on his head, he still replied with a smile, "Miss, Duke Kane is visiting, and the Duke also caught a wanted criminal."

From Ryan's perspective, you can see the second floor above the counter. A plump woman with long green hair and dress stretched out her head from the railing and looked curiously towards the first floor.

"Oh~"

The green-haired beauty showed a surprised expression on her face when she saw Ryan, and she still said in a slow tone, "Isn't this Instructor Reinhardt? It's been a long time since I saw you."

"Hello."

Ryan smiled and waved to the other party, "Edell, you are indeed here too."

...

When Alisa and his men arrived at this resting station decorated with a large number of beautiful plants, everything had already been settled.

Watz, whose eyes were turned white, was tied to the ground and had not woken up yet. Ryan, Yartina and Miltio were holding black tea cups with exquisite golden patterns on the surface, slowly savoring the coffee in the cup, while Pegasus was docilely lying on the side and napping.

"Yeah~ Not bad."

Ryan slowly swallowed the coffee in his mouth, looked at the steaming brown coffee in the cup with admiration and said, "Very pure coffee beans, they must have been delivered soon, right? I really feel that you can still buy authentic Keldick coffee beans during this period."

"Haha~ Thank you for the praise."

Edel smiled happily, "But this is not bought, but a copy I grew myself. Just be satisfied with the taste."

“Imitation?!”

Ryan smelled the aroma of coffee in surprise. With his sensitive sense of taste and smell, he could not detect any difference between Edel's so-called imitation and the authentic Keldick coffee beans.

"ha……"

Sighing softly, Ryan said with emotion, "As Fei said, you are so talented in taking care of plants that no one can match."

‘It’s like the legendary druid with the power of nature…’

Alisa and others also came over at this time. She first looked at Miltio, who looked a little depressed and unwilling, drinking coffee with her head in silence, curled her lips slightly, and then looked at Yaltina with admiration.

‘Beautiful job, my dear daughter.’

‘A small thing.’

The eye contact between the mother and daughter made Lixia, who was holding Qiya, showed a laughing and crying expression on her face. Sheron also jokingly glanced at Xue Nai, who seemed a little disappointed, from the corner of her eyes.

Emma has not been in the family for a long time and she doesn't know much about the twists and turns between the few people.

She saw Edel, who had a plump body with a stable and childlike shape, "Isn't this Senior Sister Edel? I guessed when I first entered the door and saw a lot of plants. Sure enough, this rest stop was opened by the Senior Sister, right?"

"That's right~"
