Chapter 147 Call! Shout!
He wears a red mask on his face, perhaps to hide his eyes, and his upper body is naked with a loincloth tied around it. He was a dangerous person no matter how you looked at him. When he came up to us, he stopped.
I don’t want to ask him who he is. But I can’t help but ask him.
“Um, are you Lake Spirit-sama?”
“Indeed.”
It replied, crossing its arms. I knew it. I could see my own face was scrunched up. I looked next to me and saw that my brother’s face was also twitching. It seems that it worked a little too well. Geez.
What should I do now? I hope he simply came to say thank you.
“It looks like you’ve returned to your normal form. Congratulations.”
“Mm-hmm. Thanks to you, and especially to Julius, I have more power than ever before. Even now, the power is still gushing out of me like this: ……!”

The spirit of the lake strikes a muscular pose. It’s power is increasing! Why didn’t I use a normal magic recovery potion? If I had done that, this would not have happened. Since I made it a continuous magic power recovery, his magic power will continue to increase until it reaches the upper limit.
“Well, that’s very pleasing indeed.”
My brother with a drawn smile said so. The dangerous man with a shell on his back silently nods his head. What should I do. It’s my fault, right?
While I was in a daze, our eyes met.
“Julius.”
“Yes.”
“I’m going to follow you.”
“Huh?”
We can’t have that. I feel sorry for the lake spirit, but if we take him with us, people will surely look at us strangely. I have no choice but to refuse. I had to hold them back somehow.
“I think that’s a bad idea. Aren’t you protecting this area, lake Spirit-sama? If your protection were to suddenly disappear, many people and the plants and animals in this area would be in trouble.”
“That’s right. Everyone is happy that the town’s hot springs are running again. If the spirit of the lake were to disappear now and the hot springs were to dry up, wouldn’t they be sad?”

“Mm, that’s certainly true.”
The spirit of the lake pondered. Brother Cain is also desperate. We can’t have such a suspicious person following us. I felt such a strong will.
“In that case, I will give Julius my blessing. If you need anything, call on me. I will come to your aid from beyond the ninth dimension!”
With a hissing sound, a mysterious ray of light shot out from the spirit of the lake and enveloped my body. Oh, it looks like I can’t veto it. The light quickly subsided and I found myself with a tortoise shell pattern on the back of my hand. What’s this? …… I tried to rub it off, but it wouldn’t come off.
“The contract has now been signed. Members of the Margrave Heine family, you can visit anytime. You are welcome!”
Saying this, the spirit of the lake returned to the water. We stared blankly at the scene. Around us, tourists who were watching the whole thing were whispering to each other.
It seemed that the Heine family had made a contract with the spirit of the lake. If he could at least do something about that figure,…… that figure is of a pervert no matter how you look at it. If mother saw it, she would definitely have a stroke. I don’t know what to do.
“Haa…… I finally understand what father meant when he told me to take good care of you. I guess he meant to keep an eye on you.”
He sighed sadly. Why! You’ve got it all wrong.
“It just happened, brother! Don’t talk about me like I’m a troublemaker. In the end, I ended up saving the Spirit of the Lake and this town, right?”
Ad
“Yeah, well, if you just look at the results. But It did attract a lot of strange attention though. Oh, what am I going to tell father ……”
“You should just keep quiet!”
“I can’t .”
He denied it with a straight face. I thought it was a good idea. When I looked at the knights, they all had troubled looks on their faces. It seems that I am a total troublemaker. I’ll keep quiet.
At the insistence of brother Cain, we decided to leave town on the same day. He said, “I want to go to the royal capital as soon as possible.” I am sure that behind this is his desire to “arrive at the royal capital as soon as possible and leave Julius in Alex’s care.”
Although I found this incomprehensible, I had no choice but to follow his lead, as I had no power. I am sure that my father must have anticipated this and did not have any of the knights close to me accompany us. What a clever plan. But even my father would not believe that I had received the “blessing of the spirit of the lake”. I got one. No, maybe the spirit of the lake took one from me. Oh well.
After that, it was nonstop to get to the royal capital. You’re desperate, brother Cain. …… When we arrived at the townhouse of the Margrave Heine family in the royal capital, the butler who manages the townhouse greeted us as if in a hurry.
“Welcome home. I’m surprised you arrived so early.”
“Oh, I didn’t mean to startle you. Where is brother Alex?”
“He’s out right now, but I’m sure he’ll be back soon.”
Apparently, we had arrived much earlier than planned. In fact, we were supposed to proceed more leisurely and with more time to spare. That’s how much Brother Cain had a sense of urgency toward me.
I’m sorry I did that. But I can’t help it. We certainly couldn’t have left it like that. I am sure that he knows that. On top of that, he probably thought it was beyond his control.
While we were being guided to the salon and taking a rest from our trip, the servants were hurrying about. They must be getting ready to welcome us. I felt somewhat apologetic.
In the meantime, brother Alex came back.
“That was fast, you two. According to the schedule, it should’ve taken another two or three days.. …… Cain, what’s going on?”
Brother Cain nods his head. I don’t like it that he didn’t ask me. It seems that Alex thinks it’s something to do with me. Well, it’s true, but there is a chance that it might not be. I wanted him to hold even a small piece of that possibility.
