Zongman: A Dimensional Journey Starting from Fulilian

"No, I believe you!" Emilia said firmly.

"That's more like it." Shi Chen tapped her forehead.

"Hmm... Shichen, you really like touching hair." Emilia covered her forehead.

"I don't touch anyone casually. Your silver hair looks so beautiful."

"Silver hair... looks good... really?"

"Of course, I like your silver hair very much."

"Thank you, thank you." Emilia looked at Shichen and smiled brightly.

"That's right, laughing suits you."

Shi Chen rubbed her head again, then returned to his seat, picked up Betty, sat down, and looked directly at Rozwaal: "Next, let's talk business."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Roswaal smiled with interest.

"Come to think of it, you are Emilia's shield. I have helped so much, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"

Chapter 488 Being a Diner

"Eh - Shichen? Didn't you say... it's not for the reward?" Emilia couldn't help but ask when she heard Shichen change his words again.

"It's true that I'm not doing this for the reward, but since there is a reward to be gained, it would be a waste not to take it." Shi Chen winked at Emilia.

"this......"

"Don't worry, it's not a huge reward. It's easy for Rozwaal to do it."

"Oh~ What is it? If you ask Ram and the others directly, I can't make the decision~"

"Don't worry, I will definitely rely on myself to conquer Rem."

"Is that so? Then tell me what you want as a reward. You are right. You have helped me so much. I will definitely do whatever I can."

"It's simple. Let me be a guest here."

"Huh?" Emilia exclaimed in surprise.

Rozswaal also stared at him blankly, as if he didn't hear what he said clearly.

Rem and Ram also looked at him in disbelief.

"You said... you want to be a guest?" Rozswaal asked slowly and uncertainly.

"Yeah, that should be okay, right? You know my current situation. I can only stay at your mansion."

"It's not a matter of whether there is a problem or not... is it that simple?" Roswaal asked again in disbelief.

"It's that simple." Shi Chen smiled and nodded.

"This is really..."

"Puchi~" Emilia laughed out loud at this time.

"Emilia, what are you laughing at?"

"Shichen, you...have lost all desires, have you?" Emilia asked, suppressing her laughter.

"You're already a guest, and you still don't have any desires? You can eat and live for free."

"It's you, Shichen." Emilia smiled happily.

Yesterday, Shichen helped her and only asked something as insignificant as her real name.

It would have been fine if he didn't know the importance of helping her then, but now that he knows, he actually just wants to be a guest.

She didn't think Shichen understood anything, which meant that he really had nothing else to ask for.

Why is this?

Come to think of it, he just touched her hair again.

She remembered Betty saying that this was called a head-patting gesture, which meant not only praise, but also pampering...

So, she was pampered?

Thinking of this, Emilia lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at him.

In her mind, all she could think of was Shichen praising her for being cute and her beautiful silver hair...

"Oh my~ Shichen, you really surprised me." Roswaal laughed happily.

"Surprised? No, I don't like to surprise men." Shi Chen waved his hands to resist.

"?" Roswaal didn't understand what he meant, but he didn't care.

"Since you said so, Shichen, I agree that you can be a guest here. You can even enjoy the same treatment as me. This is my way of thanking you." Rozwaal said with a smile.

"So good?" Shi Chen looked at him in surprise.

"Well~ After all, you should know how important your help is to me~"

Rozswaal is Emilia's backer as the king candidate, that is to say, a sponsor and a supporter.

Shichen's help is equivalent to standing in the same position as him.

"Haha~ In that case, I'll respectfully obey your command." Shi Chen accepted it calmly.

"Chen, stop talking about such irrelevant things and feed me." Betty finally couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted in a coquettish manner.

"How can this be an insignificant matter?" Shichen fed her a mouthful of bread.

"Uuuuuuu~"

Betty finished chewing and snorted: "Humph~ Anyway, Rozwaal will definitely let you stay, otherwise I will leave with you directly, and his library will be finished."

"Oh my, my~ I didn't expect you to betray me so quickly, Beatrice." Roswaal sighed helplessly.

Betty is the manager of the forbidden library in his mansion. The books in the library are all very important things.

It would be difficult to guard against it without the big elf Betty guarding it.

"What treason? That's such a harsh word. You and I are not companions." Betty retorted mercilessly.

"Oh~ In that case, Shichen, you must stay here for a while longer."

"Don't worry, Emilia is here. I will definitely stay for a long time unless she leaves."

"Shichen...what do you mean?" Emilia blushed and asked him in a low voice.

"What do I mean?" Shi Chenle asked back.

"Hmm..." Emilia shyly looked away.

"So you're here to be a guest just for Lady Emilia. What about Ram and the others?" Rozsval asked.

"Of course this is also a reason." Shi Chen replied directly.

"This is really... I can only hope that Ram and the others will be conquered more slowly."

The two people involved in the topic remained expressionless. As maids, it was not appropriate for them to interrupt.

Emilia also lowered her head, not caring about Shi Chen's fickleness. Except that her mind was still in a panic, she really didn't care.

After all, she is simple and doesn't know much.

Shichen, this is considered deceiving an ignorant girl.

Fortunately, this is a different world, and being fickle... no, being amorous is really not a problem as long as you have excellent abilities.

After finishing the business talk, we continued with the delayed breakfast.

After breakfast, Rem and Ram started to clean up the dishes.

Shi Chen sat in his seat, holding Betty, looking at Emilia who was wiping her mouth, and thought of a question.

"By the way, although I already know that Emilia is a bit naive and innocent, why did she act alone in the capital yesterday?"

"Nutty?" Emilia didn't quite understand the meaning of this word.

"Just stupid." Shi Chen said bluntly.

"I'm not stupid!" Emilia retorted dissatisfiedly.

"Really? If you're not stupid, then why were you wandering around the capital alone yesterday and had your badge stolen?"

"Well..." Emilia was too embarrassed to refute.

"As I remember, Ram was supposed to be with Lady Emilia, right?" Rozsval asked Ram who was cleaning up the dishes.

"Oh no..." Ram paused and his face became stiff.

"Oh no?" Shi Chen naturally heard her muttering.

"You weren't trying to get away with it just now, were you?"

“…” Ram remained silent.

"that......"

At this time, Emilia raised her hand, her face full of embarrassment.

"Actually, it's not Ram's fault. Yesterday, it was me... I should say I succumbed to a little curiosity... Anyway, I got separated from Ram in a daze..."

"curiosity?"

"Well, because it's my first time visiting the royal capital..." Emilia replied in a low voice.

"Oh, Emilia, you are really stupid." Shi Chen sighed.

"I......"

“But no matter how you look at it, it’s Ram’s fault, right?” Shi Chen’s face suddenly became serious and he looked at Ram.

"......Yes, it was Ram who failed in his duty. Please punish me." Ram admitted his mistake decisively.

"Punishment or something... It's not my decision, but Emilia will definitely not punish you. How about this, you teach me about the situation here?"

"Huh?" Ram looked at him blankly.

"What? Don't you know the situation in the capital?"

"No... just, that's it?"
