Chapter 126 Tanya’s concerns

“Hold on, Tanya . ”

It was the middle of the night . I was about to leave, but was called to a stop .

“What is it, Dida? I’m busy . ”

I glared at him, but Dida maintained his usual casual smile .

“I know . You received an order from milady to investigate the east region, correct? And you also have to look after young master . You’re working quite hard . ”

“If you think so, then perhaps it would be a good time to leave now . ”

“That’s unnecessary . ”

“…What?”

“I’ll be the one investigating . If you’re buying a biscuit, you should go to the biscuit store . I’ll go back to the old nest . ”

Hearing this, I understood what he wanted .

The man before me was from the east region…besides that, he was once a member of that organization .

Lady Iris picked him up when she was traveling with her family in the east .

It wasn’t far from the capital of the territory, plus it was by the sea . So the east region was a frequent destination for their travels .

That was also when I was working and practicing…so I didn’t go with her, but instead waited for her at home . Seeing this man come back with her, I was more than surprised .

“Don’t you have your own work?”

“I also have quite the excellent partner . Plus, all of our subordinates are well-trained . Everything will be fine . ”

“…Even so, you can’t do this . You’re the kind of person who wouldn’t utilize the organization’s power and look into things on your own . But even if it was from when you were young, they’ll still remember your face…it’s dangerous . ”

“Hey, come on . I for one think that I have a few good moves up my sleeve . ”

“I know . You don’t have to tell me that . But why? Why do you want to do this?”

“If we’re going to put ourselves out there for Lady Iris, I should be the one to do it . As I mentioned, I understand the landscape there better . ”

As if to demand his true intentions, I stared straight at him .

He smiled, seeming a bit confused…but eventually, his expression became serious .

“I keep having a bad feeling about the whole situation . So I wanted to go ahead and confirm things for myself . If I can clear the slate, then I’ll do that too . ”

“Do you think that I’ll let you go alone after hearing that?”

“I’ve said it before . I can handle pretty dangerous situations…so, sorry about this . ”

The moment he said that…something hit me .

I had been careless . I couldn’t help but scold myself .

At the same time, my consciousness began to dissipate .

The last thing I saw was him .

His expression was incredibly apologetic .

…When I opened my eyes again, my brain couldn’t process what was going on .

Why? The scene that entered my eyes was so completely normal .

It was my room .

But it wasn’t a dream .

Looking down at the clothes I was wearing, I sunk into thought .

I immediately tidied myself up and ran out of the room to report to milady .

“…Dida has gone to investigate?”

The moment I spoke, her eyes went big .

“Although I understand that I shouldn’t worry about him…I still do . Would he do something careless?”

She spoke her thoughts out loud .

“Even so, if we were to bring him back, Ryle…We don’t have the kind of resources to send out someone so skilled . Most importantly, I’m quite grateful for his actions . We’ll see how things go . ”

“…I understand . ”

I couldn’t go against milady’s decision .

Pushing down the annoying foreboding feeling that kept appearing in my heart, I returned to my usual duties .
