Chapter 8

An empty house is lonely, isn't it?

The carriage arrives, and first, Miss Satella and Nia, along with other exhausted women, are loaded and sent off as much as possible.

Sending Miss Satella to the Lanakeld house is the top priority.

I took on the role of supervisor until the end.

The share of the treasure is already decided, and since it was Niaโ€™s party that saved Miss Satella, itโ€™s best to send Nia to the Lanakeld house. There shouldnโ€™t be any trouble if Miss Satella is with her.

Nia would be able to perfectly protect Miss Satella even if they were attacked.

As for me, I have time to spare, albeit reluctantly.

As more carriages arrive, I pack people and goods into them, and finally, I send off a box filled with silver coins in a carriage with Niaโ€™s confidant, Marg.

Unfortunately, thereโ€™s too much cargo, so I canโ€™t ride.

Well, I donโ€™t mind.

Walking back to the imperial capital is no big deal.

Iโ€™ve made enough profit. If I were a poor man, I would have to hunt magical beasts on the way back to make ends meet.

Leaving the stronghold behind, I walk on the highway. Itโ€™s utterly peaceful.

I immerse myself in a pastoral mood for the first time in a while.

After some time, I finally arrive at the imperial capital.

When I go to Niaโ€™s base, they are cooking.

The captured women seem to have not been able to eat properly, but their complexion has improved a lot.

If they rest for a few days, their bodies should recover considerably, if not their hearts.

Since Niaโ€™s base is too cramped to accommodate the women, I rent a cheap inn for a few days and have them stay there.

A relatively healthy woman with long hair bows her head.

โ€œThank you not only for saving us but also for taking care of us. I will not forget this kindness.โ€

โ€œDonโ€™t worry about it. Itโ€™s only natural. Iโ€™ll make sure everyone is sent back to where they came from.โ€

Iโ€™m just giving back a part of the profit I made.

I could leave it to the empire since they are victims of bandits, but they would be inconvenienced.

Besides, it will become a good story that raises the image of adventurers.

I might as well put out a request to other adventurers to deliver them. Nia and I donโ€™t have the time to do that.

While Iโ€™m doing that, Nia returns from the Lanakeld house.

She looks unusually worn out.

โ€œIt would have been better if the Sky Knight-sama had gone. Youโ€™re used to it.โ€

โ€œYou get used to it. You canโ€™t avoid it forever.โ€

โ€œJust so you know, the Marquis was really scary. He shook hands with both hands and thanked me, but he said he would strangle the kidnapper with his own hands. Too scary.โ€

That place is known for its martial faction within the empire.

โ€œItโ€™s good that the Marquisโ€™ daughter was unharmed. Really. I wonder what would have happened if she had been hurt.โ€

โ€œYeah. Iโ€™m glad we went to crush them right away.โ€

Thereโ€™s nothing more I can do. I donโ€™t need to handle the guild procedures this time, and the rewards and shares will be settled later.

Oh, I need to collect the reward for the dragon subjugation soon.

I leave Niaโ€™s base and return to my newly established home.

The furniture and other things havenโ€™t arrived yet, so itโ€™s just spacious.

I was too eager and rented a large house.

I sit and rest on the sofa. Thatโ€™s also where I sleep.

Oh, what should I do while Iโ€™m away?

The house I rented with my previous party had a managerโ€ฆ

I donโ€™t like coming home to a house that hasnโ€™t been ventilated or cleaned.

Maybe itโ€™s a good idea to buy a slave for house management.

Slavery is not illegal in the empire.

Those who become slaves are children who are a burden to feed, people who canโ€™t pay back their debts, and various others.

Buying a slave means supporting a person.

Itโ€™s not exactly a social contribution, but still.

The house is quite convenient with magic installed, so two people should be enough.

Living alone is lonely. Itโ€™s hard for adventurers to have lovers.

Damn it, those two come to mind.

It was fun, after allโ€ฆ

Alright, Iโ€™ll pick out a slave tomorrow. Might as well be someone whoโ€™s easy on the eyes.


The sudden dissolution of the Empireโ€™s strongest party. Iโ€™ve decided to travel freely through life with my cute companion.

I had achieved great success as an adventurer of the empire and was even called a heavenly knight. I was at the forefront of the empire's strongest party and had a promising future ahead. However, one day, I suddenly ceased to be at the forefront of the empire's strongest party. If the other two are retiring due to marriage, there's nothing I can do about it.
