With the discovery of Lamia's identity, Lasse and the others achieved their goal and returned to the city of Dexi for the first time in weeks.

"This has been a productive trip,

　Lasse's words say that he was able to learn about the transmissions with noblemen from other countries and information about Lamia's homeland.

"What are you going to do, Master Lasse?

　Lamia asks. . how the Lord will act now that his identity is known.

Well, I've been out and about for a while now, so I think I'll stay around town for a while, looking for work and finding out more about Lamia's sanctuary.

　I am inwardly relieved to see that I won't be scrambling to find sanctuary in Lamia .

(That makes me happy, too.)

　To be honest, the return to her homeland was not that important to Lamia.
　Having lived in the human world since she was a child, Lamia's world was as foreign and unknown to her as it was to the rest of the world.
　But most of all, she was worried about the possibility of being separated from Lasse if she found out where she was born.

　So Lamia was relieved that her search for her hometown had been put off.

"Besides, everyone who works in the town will miss you if you go out too much.

　The

"Welcome home, Lord!

　A half-human, half-fish demon siren greeted Lasse when he returned to the office.
　Because she was a fish underneath, she had missed being able to accompany Lasse on his recent business trips.

"I've missed you while my lord was away!

　When the Siren embraces Lasse, the surrounding guests, more properly male guests, look at him with glazed eyes.
　The Siren is a demon that has the upper body of a beautiful woman and deceives men with her unworldly beautiful voice.
　She is so captivating that men instinctively identify her as an enemy if she is the man they embrace.

You have a beautiful woman in your life.

(Sirens are so friendly, I won't allow it!)

　But since the Siren is a follower of Lasse, a servant of Lasse, who is happy to serve him, they can't do anything about it, as the Siren himself doesn't like the idea of picking a fight with Lasse.

Are you going to be working in town forever?

"Yeah. I'll work in town for a while. There's a lot of paperwork that needs to be done.

That's right.

　A dignified voice echoes through the office.
　The owner of a clear voice that reaches clearly through the crowded store is the plant demon Dryad.

I have a number of documents pending approval from Mr. Lasse, please review them before you sign them.

　Pointing to the stack of papers the dryad is holding, the dryad rushes to a rise.

"Yeah, all right.

　At the dryad's urging, Lasse walked to the back of the store and stopped to look back.

Yes, yes, I'm home, Siren.

"...... Yes!

　The Siren replied with a big smile, and the men were knocked out of their hearts with her debonair smile.

(I'm home, oh I'm home. What a sweet word.

　The Siren is a demon that deceives men.
　Therefore, the men who are confused by her voice will be trapped by them forever.

　But Lasse is different.
　Perhaps it's his nature as a demon hunter, or maybe he's not trapped by the magic of the Sirens' voice, but he's free to act without being trapped by it.
　In other words, he's like a migratory bird that won't stay with her.
　A man who is not deceived by his own self, and who has returned of his own volition to say that he is home.
　It was more exciting than anything else for the monster Siren, who couldn't let go of the man.

(She couldn't control the man she'd found, and she waited anxiously for him to return of his own volition. Oh, how exciting!

　The Sirens' values were a bit biased.

　.

Here are the papers.

　I feel dizzy at the stack of papers on my desk.

That's a lot of paper.

In addition to the people we've done business with, we're seeing more and more newcomers.

　However, the work of the dryad was perfect.
　He took care of matters that were not worthy of Lasse's attention and only selected requests that were beneficial to Lasse and that took into account his position.
　Furthermore, he only signed the documents after checking their contents according to his word.
　Since the dryad was examining them, there was actually no need to even check the contents.
　But she still asks Lasse to confirm the contents.
　It's not to make Lasse aware of her responsibility as a manager.

(You'll definitely stay here while we look at the documents, right?)

　A small but lovable maiden's heart .
　. was a modest selfishness that stranded Lasse in this town, and wanted to monopolize it.

　In short, jealousy of Lamia.
　But the perfect woman would never show her jealousy.
　Rather than doing such ugly things, the flower lady understands that the right use of time is to create time when she can legally be with the Lord.

"Master Lasse, let's take a break.

　When Lasse is tired, the dryad offers her tea.
　The water is a spellbinding morning dew water she had prepared herself.

"Thank you, dryad.

You're welcome.

　It was a short but calm and happy time.
　The dryad was chewing on the few moments before the other demons interrupted.
