Chapter 290: Future investment

“Well girls, let me introduce you. This here is Euphrosyne, and the brat here is Kiel. and as I told you before they are the reason I was absent, well get along, But not too much… they are all part of my harem.”

“Nice to meet you. As Seraphina-sama said, I’m Euphrosyne, but you can call me Rosy.”

“….”

“Hey, stop lying half of us here aren’t from your harem. And what the hell… why are you suddenly bringing demons here?”

“Huh? Of all people, you were the one I least expected to hear such a discriminatory comment from, Aurora.”

” That’s not what I was referring to!!, because the rest of them seem calm, could you please explain!…”

At the introduction of two people with horns, Aurora protested, besides she’s wrong since the twins if they are only she doesn’t know it.

It slipped out for a moment, but not that it matters,

Finally after finishing everything with Rosy at the end, my doubts were cleared up, and indeed, she was as normal as she said.

I could see their status and there were some skills that, frankly, surprised me and now I discovered the existence of a skill whose effects left me speechless.

That one in particular was added to my mental library, and it was a skill that entered at the top of the rankin of what I consider cheat skills.

I didn’t think I would get a trump card of that level, if it can call it that.

And not only that… Rosy was at the ’Initial Soul Strength’ rank, the eleventh rank or the first rank of soul conversion, which surprised me.

But if I thought about it, if she was born in such a high level place, I shouldn’t expect less, in fact she told me that she was stronger but the Invernacion degraded her rank, which I found curious how it worked.

I really thought she wasn’t very strong, since to escape from Kiel’s family she had to lose limbs… but apparently, Kiel’s family was stronger than I originally thought.

It was fortunate that they escaped themselves, because if I didn’t find he, I was going to infiltrate there.

Rosy was powerful and it would have been a problem to take her out as I had thought, but I still believed that, if I tried hard, I could take her out, since she only has one limb, i.e. one foot. But considering its abilities, it wouldn’t be that easy.

In the end, it didn’t matter, because now she was – to put it mildly – she is my subordinate.

In fact I thought it was a shame not to be able to use her properly, so I asked her if she couldn’t regain her lost limbs.

To which, again, she told me to put my hand in her chest again, in what I realized was another of her many skill that made the function of dimensional bag, it seemed useful, but soon I will be able to do something similar with space magic.

Although in the end I don’t touch anything, I don’t even know what to think about the entrance being that place, what my hand grabbed was a list with five minerals:

{Velythium

Pyrophrax

Lunorite

Ferridrax

Aurion }

It was a list of rare metals, and some honestly a bit complicated to find ,I only had Aurion, and not even in the quantity needed.

The good thing was that I only needed to find them and she would take care of the rest.

And lastly I asked her reason for acting as a robotic maid.

From what I saw in her memories, it shouldn’t be like that, and despite what she is, she should act like anyone else, but once she answered me I would have preferred not to know and I felt that everything I saw was a lie.

But anyway Now that everything had been resolved and finally, with Kiel’s cooperation, we went out and I introduced them to the girls.

I looked at the girls and at Rosy who was on a wheelchair that I quickly made with my affinity for plants. I’ll do her one better later.

“My lady… 눈_눈”

Elena, and the girls who just like the rest made a quick introduction to the demonic duo and explanation to Aurora , Immediately after that she looked at me with a threatening face for some reason.

“Huh? What’s wrong, Elena?… Huh!!? Why are you pulling George out of nowhere!!? Put that away!!”

“My lady, you said you went to the demonic world and brought what you named as ’future investment’, right…?”

“Huh? Well, yes, Kiel is something like a future investment, and- Hey!! But what the hell!!! Elena, why do you look like you’re gonna hit me with George!! Seriously, what did I do wrong?”

“My lady, no offense, you are an unstoppable degenerate, unethical and a disgrace to society.”

“Hey!!! What do you mean ’no offense’?!!! I’m obviously offended!!! What are you getting at?”

“But I thought you’d at least have some morals and settle for the twins, at most.”

“Huh? What are you saying? I don’t understand.”

“hey!.. I think I am getting your point and I don’t like the sound of it. Besides, it could be a misunderstanding. That fool could be how it is, but… hmm….maybe….”

I wasn’t getting what Elena was telling me, but apparently Eira was.

I mean, it’s dangerous that Elena brought George out, but I don’t know what I did. I just introduced them…I had already told everyone both ahead of time, so it shouldn’t be a surprise.

I don’t understand Elena’s sudden need to insult me out of the blue and threaten me with ’george’…though I appreciate the cold stare. Still, I feel there’s an injustice if I’m not told what I did wrong.

But oblivious to my bewilderment, Elena continued:

“Oh, excuse me, Miss Eira I didn’t mean it in any bad way, but you are right. My lady, could you tell me Kiel-sama’s age?”

’it’s not fair because with him if I can hear elena’s ’sama’ damn brat’.

I complained internally, but I still don’t understand the point, rather…

“Huh? Age? Well… Hmm… Kiel, how old are you?”

“Thirteen.”

“Oh!, thirteen.”

Well, despite his still curt attitude, he seems more willing now to answer questions, maybe now he knows I’m not dangerous to him.

Although he didn’t want to introduce himself earlier, well I guess he’s at a sensitive age and so many beautiful girls might intimidate him.

“…”

“Yeah, Elena, get it over with! That pervert overstepped the limit! We have to give her a reprimand before it’s too late!”

“What Eira what do you mean, Elena, wait, I didn’t do anything wrong!!! At least tell me what I did!”

“And you still ask, my lady… how dare you have such nefarious plans towards a young girl like her?”

“Huh? What do you mean by…. Wait girl?!… Oh!I know what’s going on! It’s a misunderstanding! Kiel is a man!!!”

“Huh?”

“if Kiel is A man he may look androgynous and unmasculine! And honestly very feminine, but it’s because of his race.”

It seemed that Elena had misunderstood my words about “future investment”, even more so considering that Kiel is androgynous because it must not have been long since his maturation phase.

Elena looked at me and then looked at Kiel. She looked surprised… and embarrassed? Oh, it was rare to see her embarrassed on a day to day basis.

’Hee~ that’s what you get for being prejudiced towards me.’

Saying that, she finally put George away and simply stepped aside. Come to think of it, the situation is still awkward, since they haven’t spoken beyond introductions.

Well, I guess I have to play the role of go-between.

But just as I was thinking about what to do, Kiel spoke to me,

“I don’t look like a girl!, and I’ll have muscles soon.”

“…” ’well that’s true, although right now his looks almost beat me a few punches’.

“besides why do you keep calling me Kiel? That’s not my name.”

if I thought about it it was the first time he had spoken to me directly without me taking the initiative.

It seems that he had complaints with this matter, it is true that he had introduced him as Kiel, although his name is Zaphkiel, maybe he did not like that I introduced him by his nickname and …..

’Wait!?… come to think of it,he told me his name wasn’t Zaphkiel at our first meeting. ’

I didn’t pay much attention to him because of the situation, and after that he never complained about what I called him. But if he doesn’t have a name yet, then….

“눈_눈 Hey, kid, answer me something… you’ve gone through your coming-of-age phase, right? You should have a name right?”

“…”

If I thought about it, those of his race, just like the Krixis, pass their coming of age when they are between 15 and 20 years old.

But, from my recollection, he was especially early. This could be for two reasons:

It’s something unique to him, and he simply developed earlier or He went through a stressful enough situation to force his maturity.

Given his circumstances before I rescued him, it could be either.

And if it’s the second… it leaves me wondering if he already lived through it or if it was when he was imprisoned by the humans, which was interrupted by me.

Was this important? Well, yes, his race is born without gender or name, and when they come of age, they receive them.

That in itself is not so rare in the demon race, leaving aside the issue of the name that is only a few rasas have.

It’s not as if they are the only race to receive their gender late; in fact, an incredible 10% of demonic races have this method of growth, including the Krixis.

In fact, if Aurora was mostly or fully Krixis during her recent growth phase, she might have chosen a gender.

’Wait… because of Aurora’s tastes, if she had more Krixis heritage, then… would she have chosen to be male?…. Shit! Now I can’t shake that thought…’

Well, it’s not like tastes are the only factor and Aurora was definitely more human and was born with a gender and now she’s definitely a woman, so…. ’No! Focus on Kiel!’

“Hey, answer me. did you or didn’t you go through your coming of age phase? Did you or didn’t you, you know…a-”

“Stop! What are you saying to? Stop being so rude in front of him!”

“wait Aurora, this an important question, you know, he could have been cheating on me all this time, pretending to be a man.”

“….yo didn’t cheat on you you’re the one acting like a smartass”

“what did you say shorty!”

“If I may, I’ll answer that, Seraphina-sama.”

“Oh, Rosy, go ahead.”

“My young master has not yet gone through the coming of age ceremony and, in fact, does not yet have a set gender or name. But he prefers to be referred to as a male, and his temporary name until that happens is Ciel.”

“Huh, really? So you didn’t go through the growth phase, that’s why you’re so androgynous and feminine?”

“Who’s feminine!!, I told you I’m going to have a lot of muscle soon.”

“um, well, with your breed it will be hard to have muscles, if you didn’t go through the growth phase, … rather, let me check it out….

“Hey! W-what are you doing? Get away!”

If this is true I had to check it with my own eyes, despite my compression of the body with a simple glance it was hard to notice, because of how special and unique their race was .

The Animora and their physical structure a bit unique to the rest of the demons, so it was better to look directly.

“Calm down, kid, this is a routine checkup. I have to confirm something, it’ll be quick.”

“No! Rosy, tell him to stop!”

“I’m sorry, young master, but as I had told you, Seraphina-sama is now my master too, and a mere servant like me shouldn’t-”

“Calm down, if you have no gender you have nothing to hide, And if you are male, what does it matter if a beautiful woman like me looks at you? And if you happen to be a woman, well it matters less, between girls there shouldn’t be a problem!”

“Nooo! Get away from me!”

“It’ll just be a quick glance and there shouldn’t be- agh!!!”
