Suddely Became A Child's
Eps 25's

Rein rolled around on the bed, then stared blankly at the flat-looking wall.

It's been two weeks since the hunting festival that took place in the Volker forest, which is now Volker territory.

Since then Curran has been busy building territory so that it can be occupied by citizens of the Xinlaire kingdom. He was also assisted by knights from the Duchy Crimson region, and courtiers.

There's nothing wrong with that.

The problem is, Curran punishes himself not to go to the green forest behind the residence.

Goddamnit!!

Even more annoying, Curran gives a lot of knights to keep an eye on whenever he goes to play.

Goddamn bum!!

He already had many monsters in the dimensional space, one wind spirit, as well as the sometimes perverted Croft system. With them, there was no way he would be injured.

After all, he was also unlikely to use a hacker skill every day.

Curran motherfucker!!

"Yeah."

Rein let out a long breath.

Rein initially intended to rob Curran's gold, but did not. If Curran is poor, he will be poor.

"Yeah."

Rein let out a long breath.

~ "Why ... Cutie pie ... Continue ... Stroking ... Breath?"

Joy asked with her mouth full. He was eating a fresh purple fruit, sitting on a small table together with Croft who was beside him.

Croft turned to the side, then he clicked his tongue looking at Joy's face with purple liquid on his face.

[I told you, don't you, if you eat slowly. Lookie! Your face is so dirty. ]

Joy smiled slightly at Croft who was grumbling, but still cleaned her face.

Joy now has a way of getting Croft to talk to her, though a little scared, but she ends up having a chattermate other than a red man or Cutie pie.

[Stop smiling like a fool. ]

Joy immediately put on a sullen face when she was told stupid by Croft who stared flatly.

After making sure Joy's face was clean again, Croft floated towards Rein.

"I'm bored."

Rein complained with a tired face.

[ Masters. ]

Rein glanced at Croft who was flying towards him.

"Hm."

[Master, how about we steal food from Marry's place. ]

Rein put on a flat face hearing the proposal from Croft which was very unqualified.

"You want us to steal food from Marry's place with the knights behind me? Wow, that's an amazing idea."

Croft grimacing. For a moment he forgot the knight who was standing guard at the door of the room.

~ "How about we play outside?"

Joy flew up to them and told her thoughts.

Croft snapped his finger.

[Joy, you're very smart. ]

~ "Really?"

Joy exclaimed at Croft's praise.

[Of course. ]

Croft patted Joy's head. Then look towards Rein.

[Master, let's sneak out. ]

The corner of Rein's mouth twitched. He immediately kicked the blanket that wrapped around his body. Then get off the bed.

"Good idea, we're going to the market right now."

[ Ready Master. ]

~ "Not that Joy-"

Joy stopped her speech seeing the two of them looking happy. He thought for a moment, before following those who were sneaking through the window.

Tok to tok.

"Lake in."

Hearing the revelation from inside, Rosaly entered the room with some files and flowers in her hand.

"Dad, I want to report."

Gilbert removed the glasses from her face, then leaned on the chair and looked at her beautiful daughter.

"Say."

Rosaly handed the file to Gilbert, then put the flowers on the table.

"Many cases of the recent disappearance of a child, about 100 children are reported to have disappeared without cause."

"I don't know if it's a human form of selling or a monster doing it."

"Does anyone still dare to do human sales in this area?"

Gilbert asked in a low tone, her eyes very sharp looking at the details of the child loss case.

"I don't know for sure, but there's one thing that's quite suspicious."

Rosaly paused her speech for a moment, to see her father's response.

"Say."

Hearing Gilbert's words, Rosaly immediately said the thing that stuck his mind.

"The case of the disappearance of a child, happened to coincide with a florist who appeared in the past few days."

Rosaly continued to say.

"Not only that, there was an incident, where a man dared to commit a crime in a public place even during the day."

"There are also reports of traders complaining about the strange behavior of their employees."

"Not to mention, the monsters that were at the end of the border started acting aggressively since yesterday. This left several orders of Crimson knights heavily injured, there were even three fatalities who died over the incident."

Rosaly finished her sentence with a low tone and a sharp look in her eyes.

Gilbert pinched the base of his nose. He felt dizzy with the problems that had occurred lately. Just a few days ago, he solved the problem of human sales.

'Have I looked tame lately?'

Gilbert's emerald green netra flashed sharply.

"Dad."

Gilbert looked at the face of Rosaly who had a thick smile on her face. In contrast to the burning and cunning gaze, as if ready to pounce on its prey.

"Say."

"Did they feel loose when brother wasn't here?"

Rosaly asked a question that stuck in her mind.

"Maybe."

"Should I hunt them?"

Rosaly raised one eyebrow, when she asked Gilbert.

The corner of Gilbert's mouth twitched.

"What do you want to do?"

Rosaly thickened her smile, then replied in a calm voice.

"Certainly destroy it."

"But you don't have the evidence to do that yet."

Gilbert replied to Rosaly, staring at her face.

"Why do I need evidence to destroy something?"

Question Rosaly, make the corner of Gilbert's mouth twitch.

"Dad, I just wanted to hunt him down instead of killing him."

Rosaly continued her words.

"If he's innocent, we just need to give him money in exchange."

Gilbert smiled at Rosaly.

"Do as you please."

"As you wish, Father."

Rosaly bowed respectfully, then turned towards the door. However, he immediately frowned hearing the sound of a hurried knock on the door.

"Lake in."

Gilbert immediately gave permission to the person behind the door to enter immediately.

"Mark?"

Rosaly stared in bewilderment, towards Mark who went inside with a stiff expression on his face.

"Young lady."

Mark was shocked to see Rosaly when he just walked into Gilbert's study.

"Mark, did something happen to Rein?"

Mark immediately came to his surprise at the question asked by Gilbert. He also immediately said his purpose.

"Large master, young master Rein disappeared from his room. I saw the window of the room open, the possibility of young master Rein going through the window."

Rosaly was shocked by the information she heard. Gilbert took a long breath.

He had expected this to happen sooner or later. No one wanted to be in brackets for a long time, not to mention giving the many overseeing knights made him feel that movement was limited.

"Tell Curran that his son ran away from home."

"Good lord."

Mark bowed respectfully and left the room.

"Dad, what if something happens to Rein?"

Rosaly asked worriedly.

"Rosaly, Curran must understand about his mistake in educating a child. Let him feel the consequences."

Gilbert answered calmly. He was not too worried as Rein was still in his territory, not to mention that Rein had quite a strong guard.

"I understand, Father."
