After my story is finished, Lilia-san puts down the cup of tea she was drinking and exhales.

And it was there that he made over 400 platinum coins... that he happened to purchase the behemoth... and was later invited to the royal castle of the Archlesian Empire as a guest of honour. .....
Yes, sir.
I can understand the words, but my head refuses to understand them...
No, I'm afraid that headache is from something else.

　Lilia-san holds her head in her hands and looks down.
　


My Lady. I'm sure you have my best intentions and I'm sorry to hear that, Miss Miyama.
Yes?
There is a game that has spread from the world of Lord Miyama...
Play?　Is it?
Yes, it's called the 'lottery'. You should come with me sometime.
...Hey, Luna.

　What can I say, Lunamaria-san was a stable Lunamaria-san.
　Surprisingly, this person would get along with the area around Alice, in the sense of being a no good person....

'Anyway, Miss Lilia. Please. Could you please let me put the bell down?　Of course I'll pay for your food and stuff.
''..........hmmm. It's true that she was very friendly with Kite, and I don't think she's in any danger, but........
Isn't that nice, sweetheart?
Luna?

　As expected of a behemoth, the legendary behemoth, even the natural Lilia-san wouldn't give her permission immediately.
　You're going to have to make a sincere request.

I'm sure Miyama-sama will be able to take good care of you. And even if you refuse, you can't just throw out the behemoth, right?
That's certainly true, but...
'Fortunately, they're still babies, and they're not going to grow to be huge in a few years or decades.
''Well sure, that's true, too.
Thank you!
There is one condition, though.
"Conditions?

　With Luna Maria's help, Lilia-san has allowed me to keep Belle.
　As I tell her thanks, Lilia-san tells me that she has some conditions with a bitter smile on her face.


'What?　No, but....
I'm not going to give this one away I'd like to return the favor every once in a while.
Repayment?

　Hearing Lilia-san's words, I nod my head significantly.
　Lilia-san returning the favor to me?　Isn't it the other way around?　And if you want to call it a favor, it's on me, who's always been a great help to you. I'm always bothering you and all you do is bother me.

''I'm grateful to you, Kite. Thanks to Kite-san, I've come to the point where I'm about to achieve the two goals I promised myself when I received my knighthood.
What?
Your presence here is more valuable than you realize, Kite, because you are here to stay. That single point alone has given Duke Albert's family a voice that rivals... or even surpasses that of any other great nobleman.
Does that help your cause in any way, Lilia?

　What are Lilia's two objectives?　I know one thing I know ... that I will get Mr. Zeke's voice back.
　But I can't imagine the second. From Lilia-san's expression and mouthing, I can imagine that somehow that's a goal that can be called a long-sought goal, but.......

''.......One thing, as you know, Kite, is to get Zeke's voice back. This has been put on hold due to Zeke's own wishes. That's what we're going to find out.
....
''The person who can switch information about the Knights.......probably a nobleman with quite a bit of power. We needed the help of the
Well, you know, the culprit is...
We have no idea at this time. Maybe we won't find it but we'll keep looking.

　Strong words told with certainty and determination.
　The entity that once gave false information to Lilia-san's unit and caused Zeke-san to lose her voice.
　It must be Lilia-san's longest wish to find it.

''.........It's not about me, and I feel really sorry that this is the power that Kite-san has blessed me with, but.......I am sincerely grateful. Especially for letting me meet Kronor-sama, I can't thank you enough.
I can't tell you anything about it but I'm glad if I can help you, Lilia-san, even if it's just by accident.
"...thank you so much. So please allow me to return the favor, at least a little.
"...yes. Thank you.

　She and Lilia-san look at each other and thank each other with a sense of embarrassment.
　Lilia-san then turns to Luna Maria-san as if she was embarrassed, her red face remains red, and she turns to Luna Maria-san to switch the conversation.

''Even so, for Luna to side with Kaito-san so strongly... she must be up to something, right?
"...ha, ha, what an idiot...
You're up to something.
No, it's nothing important... it's just that I've been having a little discussion with Mr. Miyama.
"Consult?

　I also felt it was somehow strange, but it seems that Lunamaria-san was on my side for some purpose after all.
　I'm very uneasy, but thanks to Lunamaria-san, I'm able to keep Belle, so let's listen to her demands for now.

''........From the information I've gotten, I heard that the Dark Lord is developing a new magic tool right now.......and, well, I'd love to buy it if I could.... I was wondering if you could ask for help from Mr. Miyama...
Okay, okay.
Thank you!

　Where the hell does this fanatic get his information from?
　The magic tool Black is making is probably the calculator he asked for before, but I haven't told anyone about it, so how is Lunamaria-san getting that information?
　You don't think there's some kind of weird network among Black's followers, do you?

　Dear Mom, Dad - Lilia-san allowed me to keep Belle. That was partly due to the help of Ms. Lunamaria, but it seems that Ms. Lunamaria got the information that Black was making a calculator from somewhere.
