"Give them food and resources? I had never considered that! But you're right, Drake! We could actually feed them the food we can now harvest in the dungeon as you've rescued it and…!" said Mikohime.
"Well, not yours, mine. We'll give them the food I can get from the Ice Moon Sect plus all the Spiders." I said.
"Oooh…"
"Y-You would really do that?"
"Drake-sama, you're so benevolent!"
"Such a pure and gentle-hearted soul!"
"Indeed! So gentle! Such a gentle soul!"
Everyone was freaking out a bit too much, but I guess it is fair seeing how they didn't really wanted to use the resources and food they were slowly stacking up now that the two dungeons were producing food once more.
But don't worry, daddy Drake, has it all covered for you.
Indeed, I am such a nice person.
First, you feed them with good food, resources, and repair their sect.
Second, you ask them to join the Empire.
Third, if they don't you cut off resources.
Fourth, if they had not joined yet, they'll agree as they starve to death.
Sixth, profit! Two or more new dungeons in my property, and a whole new sect.
I feel like I am slowly conquering the land in here by being such a nice person!
Ah, I guess I do sound like an asshole, my strategy is pretty asshole-made too.
I've become what they call a "gentle asshole", I am actually a good person and have good intentions, but I am also greedy and want them for myself, so I mix them both and a weird and bizarre entity emerges, me!
I've also considered something else bringing Mikohime's grandson and making him prostate in front of the people while asking for forgiveness. Of course, I am not into sacrificing people, so I am not going to kill him for them so they can see him die and be happy.
I will just force him to ask for forgiveness and that's all, it is better than nothing, right?
Hopefully, Mikohime and the Elders won't make a fuss over it.
"We'll bring your grandson too." I said.
"Huh?! I-I cannot let you do that, Drake-sama! I know he had done a horrible thing but its wrong to sacrifice him…" sighed Mikohime.
"I am not going to sacrifice him; you have my promise I will keep the kid alive." I said.
"R-Really? Can we take your word?" asked Mikohime.
"Yes, I will make sure the kid returns alive and in one single piece, you're coming with me anyways, so you can guard him with your strength and your dragon. Some elders can come too. I will leave my troops here as well so the place can be well guarded." I said.
"Thank you, then… I will trust your words, hero." Said Drake.
"Hero?!" I asked.
"Well, you're technically the hero of this sect," said Mikohime.
"I-I guess…" I said.
"What? You're embarrassed for being called hero, seriously, Drake?" asked Miranda while raising an eyebrow.
"Well obviously, it's a bit cringy." I said.
"What's… cringy?" asked Mikohime.
"Erm, nothing, dear, better for you to not learn what it is." I said.
"Oh… D-Drake-sama called me dear!" said Mikohime while blushing.
Ah, it came out of reflex, she's just like a cute sister by now.
"I only say it because I see you as part of my family now! Yeah… Nothing romantic, don't get the wrong idea… Sorry." I said.
"I-It doesn't matter! I am glad you think that of me." She said happily.
"…You better not!" said Benladann.
"Benladann calm down…" sighed Miranda.
"Anyways! We should really stop wasting any more time, let's go." I said.
"Hm! Very well, Drake, can you help me go find my grandson?" asked Mikohime.
"Sure, let's do it." I said.
With Benladann, Miranda, and Belle at my side, I walked with Mikohime to see her grandson.
"Phew, it was such a pain to travel so much, can I rest in here for a while?" asked Belle.
She had come back after a long time, so she was tired.
She was currently sitting over my head. She was small enough that this was a possibility for her.
"Sure thing, sleep tight and comfortable, I don't mind." I said.
"Thank you~ Now, time to sleepy sleep…" she sighed in relief.
She began sleeping right away, over my head.
Having this small, fluffy fall of pink fur was rather cute, but many looked at me weirdly, thinking I had a weird wig over my head for a bit, this only made it the more embarrassing, but I managed to fight off this embarrassment as I continued moving forward.
We walked around the streets until we reached a very big Japanese-styled house.
The house was massive and had around three floors, more like a small tower in a way.
We entered through the entrance as we were greeted by a few servants.
"Ah, Mikohime! You're here…"
A beautiful woman around her twenties greeted us, of the same family as Mikohime.
"Kokoro! How are you?" asked Mikohime.
"I-I am doing fine… Even though, I am still concerned about father… Where could he had gone? I think about him every day… My father." sighed the girl.
She was the daughter of Mikohime's big brother, who had gone missing.
"Hmm… Well, we are still looking for him, don't lose hope, dear… How's Shouta?" asked Mikohime.
"Shouta… Erm… Well, he's fine but… he doesn't want to talk to me anymore, and he's always saying that he just wants to die… It makes me worried; will he commit suicide? I-I don't know what to do… Since his father died that everything had gone downhill… Sniff… I just want my son to be happy… even after the mistakes he had committed…" cried the woman. contemporary romance
She was a young mother, but still loved her son very much like any mother would. And it seems that her husband died in a war long ago against a large bandit group that had tried to raid the sect.
