C19 : Introduced The Three Maids to Esmeralda and Lilith
Inside Esmeralda's house, Esmeralda and Lilith were still awake. They seemed to worry about Zero who was still not coming home at this hour.
"Where the hell did that brat go?" why is he still not coming home?" Esmeralda said.
"I don't know Mistress, I've looked for his room but he's not there," Lilith said.
Suddenly they heard a voice at the front door of their house, then both of them rushed to the front door. At the front door of Esmeralda's house, Zero's group arrived.
"Welcome to my house, my three beautiful maids. Let's go inside."
But suddenly when he turned around, He was hit by two figures that appeared quickly towards him, so he fell to the ground. The two figures were Esmeralda and Lilith who hugged Zero tightly. Zero felt something that gently hugged him tightly and because their bodies were touching he smelled the fragrance of their bodies. Making him aroused by the fragrance of their bodies and the softness of their bodies.
"Hey... You two calm down." Zero said.
"Where had you been this time?" Esmeralda said.
"Yeah. Don't you know both of us are worried about you?" Lilith said.
"Both of you calm down let me explain after we get up." Zero said.
"Huh? ... "Both of them stunned.
Hearing Zero, they both just realized that they were hugging him tightly and were on top of Zero's body. Then with reflection, they immediately stood up from Zero's body.
"I am sorry." Both of them said together.
Shortly Zero got up from the ground, and he said, "Let's go inside first, I will explain to both of you."
Then he looked at his three maids.
"You too, let's go inside the house."
Esmeralda and Lilith just realized that three girls were standing behind Zero.
"Huh... Who are you three?" Esmeralda asked.
"Do you come with him?" Lilith asked too.
"These girls are my maids and these girls are with me. Let's go inside first."
Both Esmeralda and Lilith were stunned after hearing him say that. But Esmeralda only said, "Alright, if you say so."
Shortly they begin to go inside of the house. Soon they gathered together in the living room, the six of them sat on their respective chairs.
"You said, they are your maids, right? So hurry up explain it!!"
"Alright, but first let's introduce ourselves. Mom and Big Sis Lilith, they are Anna, Reina and Delia."
She continued by looking at the three of them.
"The three of you, I introduce you to my Adoptive Mother, Esmeralda. And my Adoptive Big Sister, Lilith."
"Greeting Madam Esmeralda, Greeting Miss. Lilith." The three said together.
"En... Me too. Anna, Reina and Delia." Esmeralda and Lilith said together too.
"Oke now, The second is How they became my maids, Right Mom and Big Sis Lilith?"
They both nodded.
Zero continues, "Because I saved them from the Goblins at The Goblins Cave not far from our town. When I want to hunt some Goblins, but later I find some of their lair not far away. And they became their captive, so I must save them. After the three of them were saved, They didn't know how to live and wanted to become my maids. So with that, I decide to accept them to become my maids. But Mom and Big Sis Lilith, you two don't have to worry about giving them salaries, food, and clothes. Because I will give them all those things because I have become an adventurer and earned enough money for all of us."
"Huh... You're the one who will provide for them? And since when did you become an adventurer?" Esmeralda asked.
"Since this morning, Mother. This is 31 Gold coins and 8 Silver coins, this is the reward I receive from the quest. That money is for you, and this is my Adventure ID token."
Zero took out the money and handed it to Esmeralda, then gave her his adventure ID token so that she could believe what he said to Esmeralda. However, Esmeralda only took her adventure ID token to see and examine it. As for the money, she didn't want it.
"You don't have to give me your money, because it is the result of your hard work. As for the ID token, it seems like you are telling the truth and you are now a D-Rank adventurer."
"What are you saying, Mother? My money is your money too. So please take it. With that you can buy some clothes with Big Sis Lilith, so you two will become more Beautiful. As for food, I have some 40 Horned Rabbits meats, 20 Gorboars meats, and 30 Gorlizards meats."
Hearing Zero's words, Esmeralda and Lilith both gasped. Because heard the amount of meat she got, even though it was F and E rank monsters. But the amount was enough to stock food needs for 2-3 weeks.
"But the money is better to meet their needs, Aren't you going to provide all the needs of the three of them?" Esmeralda said while pointing to Anna, Reina and Delia.
"It's fine, Mom. I can earn some more to provide for their needs."
Zero said that and paused a few seconds, but he continued saying,
"Besides, I want to take responsibility for all of you. In other words, I will be responsible not only to the three of them but also to be responsible for you two, Mother and Big Sis Lilith. Don't you understand what I mean by this?"
Both Esmeralda and Lilith blushed after hearing what his saying.
"A-Are you serious saying that, Zero?" Esmeralda asked.
"Yes. Mother–, No. Esmeralda." Zero answered.
"Are you serious about taking care of us, Zero?" Lilith asked.
"Yes. my dear Lilith. Not only the two of you, but also included Anna, Reina, and Delia." Zero Answered.
Then Esmeralda and Lilith looked at each other and a few seconds later they nodded together as if they were showing signs of agreement and understanding.
"Alright if you're serious about what you said. We both have agreed to the bet you made back then. If you manage to win when dueling against both of us at once, We both will become your wives."
"Oh yeah... I'll show you in three days. But where would be a good place for our duel?"
"How about our duel venue be held on the outskirts of Radagor Forest?"
"Okay, that sounds good to me."
"Alright. It's decided then."
They decided for their duel venue to be held on the outskirts of Radagor Forest in three days.
Then Zero said,"Then what about the rooms for the three of them to stay in?"
"They'll be occupying Lilith's bedroom for the time being, while Lilith will sleep with me in my bedroom."
"The description is good enough for me, so what do you three think?"
"We'll follow what Madam Esmeralda says." The three said together.
"Alright, since it's decided now let's get some rest. And I hope you three enjoy staying here. In the future, I hope you all become closer and more harmonious because all of you will sooner or later become my wives."
After saying that, Zero left the living room in the blink of an eye in front of them. He disappeared without them realizing it, and he was in his bedroom. Meanwhile, Esmeralda and Lilith were very surprised and dazed after seeing Zero who suddenly disappeared in front of them without any trace. But not long after, they wake up from their surprised daze.
"Mistress. It seems like he has become strong, we can't underestimate him or we will lose to him." Lilith said.
"Yeah, you're right, Lilith. It seems like we've underestimated him all this time. And he's hiding a lot of secrets from us." Esmeralda said.
Then Esmeralda and Lilith showed Anna, Reina and Delia the room they would be occupying. In addition, they both tidied up Lilith's belongings from Lilith's room to be moved to Esmeralda's room.
Meanwhile, Inside Baron's Mansion.
Dunde the Baron, looked worried after knowing that his son Jay had not returned home. He looked at his men and said, "Do you know where my son is now?"
"Sorry sir, we have not found the whereabouts of the young master. We are still looking for him in several places that the young master often visits."
"Find him further, if necessary search outside the Town. You may interrogate everyone in this town."
"Understood, Master."
Then his men went out of the Baron's Mansion to carry out the task given by the Baron. To find the whereabouts of young master Jay. While the baron could only think.
'Where are you, my son? You have made me very worried.'
In the Morning.
Anna, Reina, Delia, Lilith, and Esmeralda were awake. They were preparing breakfast in the kitchen after getting the monster meat that Zero had hunted. 10 minutes later the food was ready on the dining table, then Zero also appeared.
"Good Morning my dear Esmeralda, my Dear Lilith, my dear Anna, My dear Reina and my Dear Delia." Zero said.
"En. Good morning, Zero." Esmeralda and Lilith said to him without angry.
"Good morning, Master." The three girls greeted him.
"Ahh... I like this harmonious Atmosfer, I hope we can like this every time."
"Alright, that's enough. Let's have breakfast then."
Then they had breakfast, and after finishing they rushed to their respective activities. Esmeralda and Lilith went to Esmeralda's flower shop, while the three maids cleaned the house, and Zero rushed to the Adventure Guild Hall.
During the trip to the Adventure Guild building, Zero saw several soldiers asking and interrogating several people. But he ignored it and continued his journey. When he arrived at the Adventure Guild building. He noticed some adventurers murmuring after seeing his presence. But he ignored it and walked towards the quest board to take a mission.
Meanwhile, in the corner of the room, The Wolf Fang party who were talking to each other now focused their gazes on Zero. They had planned something to finish off Zero.
"Let's finish him off while he's in the Radagor Forest according to the plan we've made," Hughie said.
The other members nodded.
Then they waited until Zero left to carry out the quest, and they would follow him from behind until he was in the Radagor forest. Meanwhile, Zero has already sensed their gaze. He soon knows what they're planning for him.
Not long after, Zero had chosen the Quest and handed it to the receptionist to be accepted if he would do the quest. He chatted a little with the receptionist, shortly he rushed out of the Adventure Guild Building and headed to the Radagor Forest. Meanwhile, The Wolf Fang party followed him from behind, to launch their action against Zero.
