「S-Scary stranger suddenly brought Philia to this place… That's why Philia going to go back to Pora's place now.」
「Oooh, I see. You must be scared, good job in managing to escape until this place.」
Said Greed with his usual coaxing voice.
Gain couldn't help but look anxiously at their conversation.
Though Gain had been Greed's aide for a really long ti, this was the first ti he saw Greed act like this.
Thus he couldn't help but wonder what happened to his master today.
From his perspective, Greed was soone who could see through human heart and the flow of this world as if it was a child play, elusive and unfathod person.
And the fact that he act like this upon seeing the little girl who he just t a while ago made it even more bizzare.
「Hohohoho, I see, so your na is Philia-chan. What should I do now? This place isn't safe, an adorable kid like you might get attacked by another scoundrel. Even if you're not attacked by them, this isn't the nicest place for an adorable girl like you to wander around either. Moreover, you must be tired and scared right, girlie? How about taking a short break in my mansion? You can tell your story while resting in my mansion. There's a lot of sweets and candies in my mansion you know?」
「B-But, I can't follow a stranger… It's dangerous… And might bring you trouble… like what happened to a while ago…」
「Fufufu, such a good girl you are. My na is Greed. No one in this city never heard of my na. May I ask for your na to, young lady? I an, this will make us acquaintance right?」
「Uhm, yes… Y-You're not, a stranger anymore but, I still can't go with you… Pora will be worrying about …」
Hearing that, Greed looked at Gain.
「Gain-kun, go to the magic tool shop that beca famous recently and tell them that Philia-chan is coming to play in Greed's mansion, so she'll be back in the evening. Don't you dare to lie to them, I've promised this girl after all.」
「Eh!? W-Why!?」
Gain raised his voice.
「I-In the first place! Why are you visiting this place!? I have no idea about what you wanted to do, Greed-sama? Isn't it to gather the information for the next plan!? Why are you suddenly canceling your plan like this!? I-In the first place, there's no way I can leave you alone in this Dark Ward without any escort!」
「Did you hear my words, Gain-kun? You don't need to know anything, just do as I say. I've told you before, right? You're really convenient since you always did what I said without saying anything. 」
Greed replied with a clear displeased face.
「U-Urgh… But… This is…」
「Haah… The thing that I can see is different from yours, Gain-kun. Do not get in the way of my judgnt. Do you understand? I'm not looking for advice or concern from an ordinary person like you.」
「Y–Yes. My apologies… I'll be back imdiately..」
Despite his anxiety, Gain followed Greed's instructions.
「Let's go,, Girly.」
「But…」
「Are you still anxious even after I send my man to tell your store/」
「That's… That is…」
「Woopsie, my bad for speaking like threatening you. Now then girly, this uncle is the owner of this Polorock. Due to this city's complicated passage, you might a hard ti finding the magic tool store you're looking for. But, you don't have such worry if you follow this Uncle. In that way, the child called Pora won't be worrying about you either. How's that? Want to play with this uncle for a while? You see, this uncle is actually really lonely and want to play with you, girlie. This uncle isn't lying. Or, could it be that you hate this uncle?」
「You won't do sothing bad to Kanata and co?」
Asked Philia timidly while looking into Greed's eyes.
「Uhm, yes. I won't do bad things to them. If it's your friend, this uncle will make an arrangent so that no one going to do sothing bad to them in this city.」
「… Do you have delicious sweets?」
「 I've got a lot of them! My uncle doesn't eat those sweets but, I've prepared a lot as a gift for my guest. Moreover, whether it's a rare sweet or expensive sweet, I just need to say my na and the maker will co running to present their sweets to . That's why I'm sure that a lot of sweets will be prepared as a present for you by the ti we arrive.」
「Then, I'll go with you for a bit…」
「Good girl, now let's go.」
Greed replied happily to Philia with a weird smile plastered on his face.
「Since it'll take so ti to reach my house on foot, tell when you're tired. This uncle will give you a piggyback.」
