Chapter 209 I Agree to This Marriage
"Hey! You said that I will definitely wear yellow clothes in the future and eat delicious fish and meat every meal. Is it true or not!?"

"it is true."

"Is it really true? You didn't lie to me?"

"It's really true. I'm not lying to you."

"Is it really true?"

"It's really true, it's true."

Zun Zun answered her perfunctorily while putting the five big gold coins into his arms.

This was the first time he made money by cheating... no, by fortune-telling. In the past, fortune-telling was for marketing products, but this time he made money by licking it with his mouth.

Suddenly I feel that my parents are pretty awesome.

In fact, it was Zun Zun who was wrong. Unlike him who was a swindler, his parents were absolutely genuine and could make money by fortune-telling.

"With yellow clothes on, you can have delicious fish and meat every meal..."

Felt fell into delusion.

The main reason why she worked so hard, even risking her life, and took on the task was because the money was enough.

With this money, she and Grandpa Rom could leave the slums and live in a better and safer place.

After all, Firut is different from those people in the slums who say they are trying their best to survive but have actually given up hope. She must leave the slums.

"Thank you, even if it's fake, I'm still very happy."

"It's true."

Zun Zun endured her strong pats on his back and was curious about her happy look. This little girl who valued money so much would actually pay for divination. Was she good at fooling people or did she just want psychological comfort?

Felt narrowed her eyes and suddenly changed the subject.

"Come to think of it, you said you could predict everything, so you also know who my parents are?"

"Of course. But..."

Zun Zun rubbed three fingers towards her, and Firut was stunned for a moment.

"what?"

"That's another price."

"you……!"

Firut bared her little fangs as if she was going to pounce on Zun Zun and fight him to the death, but perhaps she knew that she could not defeat Zun Zun or the transaction was imminent, so her face changed and she finally endured it.

"how much is it?"

"20 gold coins."

"Why don't you go and rob?!"

"What are you talking about? How can you make money this fast by robbing?"

Zun Zun's matter-of-fact expression made Feruto angry for a moment, but he could do nothing about it.

She kept slapping her head, looking very annoyed.

"What a mistake. I got carried away. I actually gave my money to a liar like you. Damn it, how could I be so obsessed with it?"

This is probably the same as buying CP.

The poorer you are, the more you want to get rich through this, but in the end you lose everything.

"how?"

Zun Zun felt very happy seeing her being humiliated.

"Don't you want to know your origins? It only costs 20 gold coins. Ah, I forgot that you are just a thief at the bottom of the slums. You don't have that much money. But... Oh! For some reason, there is a badge worth 20 gold coins here. If you give it to someone, you might get an unexpected answer."

“…………I don’t want to!”

After being silent for a long time, Firut suddenly raised his head and glared at Zun Zun, holding the badge tightly in his hand.

Zun Zun raised his eyebrows.

"Oh?"

"You are beating around the bush like this, you must want this badge, but I will never let you succeed. And I also found out during our conversation that this badge is really important, at least it is worth more than 20 gold coins! So, I must raise the price and get at least 20 gold coins!"

It seems that Firut chose money after all.

It's so strange. I thought she would want to know more about her parents and past. Was it the education in the slums that taught her that she should strive for things that can be obtained rather than uncertain things?
"I'll ask you to tell my fortune later for 20 gold coins."

"Ok?"

"Hey, you just said that you can help me with divination for 20 gold coins, do you want to go back on your word?"

“Puff! Haha, hahaha, hahahaha——”

Zun Zun couldn't hold it anymore.

He just cursed himself for being bewildered and handing over the money, but then he turned around and was willing to take the risk and said he wanted to spend 20 gold coins to predict his past. It was really interesting.

But it also shows from the side that she still cares about her past.

Firut probably knew that what he did was too shameful. He glared at the laughing Zun Zun with shame and anger, and threatened: "After the transaction is completed, I will spend 20 gold coins to ask you to tell the fortune, but if the fortune-telling is wrong, don't blame me for being rude!"

The response she got was still a shrill laugh.

Uncle Rom didn't interrupt the whole time.

He just kept drinking, but at the beginning he just poured the wine into a dirty cup and pretended to take a sip, but now he kept pouring the wine into his own mouth, and his dark face was flushed.

Feruto said he drank too much, but he didn't listen at all.

"Compared to this."

Firut played with the badge in her hand, her red eyes fixed on Zun Zun, "What exactly is this badge? Why do you all want it? You should not be on the same side as the client, nor should you be on the same side as the person whose money was stolen. You all want this... I say, what is your purpose in wanting the badge?"

"Purpose? Ah, ah ah...purpose." Zun Zun doesn't have any purpose at all.

He didn't need a badge in the first place. If he had to give a purpose...

"For you."

"Give me?"

Firut pointed at himself and Zun Zun nodded.

After all, this badge is the only proof that can confirm the identity of the Dragon Priestess. If Zun Zun drags Firut to Reinhard and tells him that she is the Dragon Priestess, she will most likely be suspected or directly driven away as a troublemaker.

But it's different if there is a badge.

Being able to make the badge glow is enough to prove that Felt is the Dragon Priestess and the fifth candidate for the King's Choice.

"A badge worth 20 gold coins, for me?"

"Ah."

After confirming once more, Felt and Rom-sama exchanged a glance.

"Is it a proposal?"

"Lolicon?"

"……Um???"

Zun Zun was dumbfounded. He didn't know how the two of them came to this conclusion. They jumped around the topic faster than the stupid goddess Aqua.

"Wait, why did you come to this conclusion?"

"Isn't it? This badge is worth 20 gold coins. It's no exaggeration to say it's a treasure. At least there's nothing of the same value in my stolen goods."

"And you said you would give me this valuable badge, and even bought it from me before giving it to me. You went through so much trouble..."

"——He definitely has other intentions!" X2
The two said in unison.

Zun Zun subconsciously took a breath of cold air.

The whole process is obviously wrong, so why is the answer correct?
“Let me make it clear in advance that I have a fiancée! And… Felt, who taught you the term lolita? It means a middle-aged man falls in love with a girl who is much older than him, and I’m only 14 years old, so I’m not a lolita!”

Zun Zun shouted at the two of them.

Grandpa Rom stroked his beard and said thoughtfully: "14 years old... about the same age as Firut? Okay, I agree to this marriage."

"Lord Rom!?"

"Hahahaha—I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding."

He laughed shamelessly.

"…But this guy doesn't look like he's lying."

"Lord Rom, don't let yourself be fooled. This must be a joke, right? You're willing to spend a lot of money to buy it from me and then give it to me? It's so stupid. You might as well just tell me that you bought this badge to return it to the owner."

This is not necessary.

Whether it is Emilia or Natsuki Subaru, for Zunzun who has already arrived at the first level early and is waiting for the BOSS to appear, Firut is much more important than the two of them.

"If you want to lie, make up something nice. Even if you look serious, I won't be fooled. Otherwise, I... That's right, I won't be fooled."

“Feirut.”

As if to say goodbye, Felt squeezed out a hoarse voice. The worried Rom knew what she was thinking and his expression was also very sad. But from the girl’s stubborn attitude, it can be seen that Felt is forbidding herself to change her mind.

at this time--

The door was slammed, the sound was rapid, strong and quite rude.

"who is it?"

"I don't know. He's probably not my client."

Firut also looked confused.

The light from the window was at a high angle, and it was too strong to be called sunset. It was still early for the time she had agreed with her client. And her client was a very elegant, quiet, bookish older sister type, and she would never knock on the door so rudely.

After the three looked at each other, they took out their weapons.

Firut walked slowly towards the door with light steps, while Grandpa Rom walked out of the counter holding a half-man-high wooden stick, while Zun Zun gathered magic in his palm and prepared to launch a sneak attack at zero frame.

"I, I say, is the person you mentioned really here?"

"Really, really, you believe me. It's strange, why does it seem like there's no one here? Shouldn't you ask me to check the secret code?"

Outside the door was the sound of a man and a woman talking.

For the secret code?
Firut was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at Grandpa Rom on the other side, and found that he also shook his head slightly to indicate that he did not know.

There was a knock on the door again.

“Hey! Felt, I know you’re here, open the door quickly! If you can steal the badge, you can open the door! Open the door quickly, open the door quickly!”

The slamming door stirred up a lot of dust.

This guy's arm strength is a bit exaggerated.

Grandpa Rom signaled Firut to step back with his eyes, then put his big hand on the door, pushed the door open violently as if he was annoyed by the noise, and roared at the top of his voice.

"Stop it, kid! You're knocking on the door so loudly in the middle of the night. It's really annoying! Do you have any sense of public morality?"

"At night?... I don't think it's night yet, and your voice is much louder than my knocking."

The person who was speaking was startled, but soon relaxed and spoke as if he was very familiar with Mr. Rom.

Felt looked at him, then looked at Grandpa Rom.

"I do not know him."

Got this answer.
