c562: That Moment, He Understood

Afterward, Shien Buztout didn’t do anything else, as if he were an ordinary human, spending his time in the Elven Homeland enjoying himself with the girls around him.

Sometimes, he would take everyone out together, shopping, eating, or watching the festival performances, having a great time with them.

Sometimes, he would take one person out alone. That’s why he had only taken Lucy out on the street the other day.

After all, she was his soon-to-be wife. Shien wasn’t so lacking in emotional intelligence that he would always take a large group of women out together, never having a proper date with Lucy.

This princess had been looking forward to the Peace Festival for a long time, so Shien naturally had to accompany her and have some fun, lest she become resentful.

It turned out that Shien’s approach was correct.

At least, after that, Lucy stopped her sarcastic remarks.

Clearly, the princess’s jealousy had subsided, and she was satisfied with Shien’s actions.

After all, later on, Shien started actively buying things for Lucy, giving her gifts, and even preparing many beautiful accessories handcrafted by the elves, which not only functioned as magic items but were also very aesthetically pleasing, making the princess very happy.

Thanks to this, the princess’s resentment was appeased, and her gaze towards Shien became much gentler than before. That loving gaze made Shien’s heart race and his body flush.

And since his heart was moved, action was naturally required.

This was where the benefit of appeasing the princess came in.

Well, specifically, they unlocked many new achievements.

Wonderful!

Of course, Shien didn’t just go out with Lucy. Sometimes, he would also take Lilith out alone, making the girl very happy and excited.

During this trip to the Elven Homeland, Lilith’s several actions had touched Shien deeply, so he naturally wouldn’t neglect her. During the festival, he doted on her, fulfilling her various wishes, giving her small gifts, and feeding her delicious food, making the girl incredibly happy.

Later, Shien even went out with Lasha and Yulin.

However, the atmosphere was different with these two.

Taking Yulin out wasn’t a date, of course.

To reward the loyal dragon girl, who had indirectly provided him with various business opportunities, Shien specifically sought out Carol, paying a small price to have her order a large batch of meat dishes in the name of the Elven Corps, allowing Yulin to eat to her heart’s content during the festival.

This appeased Yulin’s previous resentment.

As for Lasha…

It wasn’t so much Shien taking her out on a date as it was this elder sister taking him out to make a fortune.

“Are you short of money?”

Lasha had suddenly asked this at the beginning of the festival, seeing Shien’s limited funds and his inability to shop as extravagantly as Lucy.

Then, this maid somehow managed to set up a shop in the Elven Homeland, specializing in her homemade dishes and handcrafted accessories.

After that, things escalated quickly.

Anyway, Shien felt that after this amazing maid opened her shop, the entire street was filled with the aroma of her cooking, and the handcrafted accessories she made were so exquisite and beautiful that they surpassed countless top jewelry designers’ expensive luxury goods from his previous life. ɽΑ₦ỘΒЕS

That day, the street went wild.

It was said that all the goods in Lasha’s shop sold out in just a few minutes.

Especially the handcrafted accessories, which were snatched up by noblewomen from all over the world, each selling for an exorbitant price.

A dragon scale was definitely expensive, right?

A drop of dragon saliva was also a very precious alchemy material, right?

But a piece of all-natural jewelry made by Lasha from leaves and branches sold for a higher price than dragon scales and dragon saliva. This was outrageous.

Shien would probably never forget the scene that night, when this maid dumped a mountain of gold coins in front of him.

“For you.”

Lasha said calmly, then turned and left.

Shien was dumbfounded.

At that moment, he understood.

“What’s so great about being kept by a princess? I’m being kept by a maid!”

This thought almost made Shien shut down.

Later, Lasha didn’t want to continue running the shop, but she was visited by elves and noblewomen from all over the world, begging her to reopen, which was another story altogether.

Shien only knew that from that day on, his elder sister became the elder sister of the entire Elven Homeland, becoming incredibly popular.

It was said that many dignitaries and nobles offered astonishing conditions, hoping to poach this elder sister, but were flatly rejected.

“I already have a young lady, and I’m currently serving my temporary master, so I can’t accept your requests.”

Lasha’s emotionless refusal made countless people sigh.

Shien felt extremely complicated emotions.

Especially when he heard the phrase “temporary master,” his heart felt uneasy.

Shien had to admit that if Leisha appeared in front of him at that moment, he might not be able to resist making a move, killing someone to steal their maid, and completely abducting this exceptionally talented maid.

It was worth mentioning that Airi, Lid, and Millu’s feelings were even more complicated than Shien’s.
