After a long silence, Kalen opened his mouth.

"You...You don't seem to want to talk to me, at least for now. No matter what I say, you won't listen."

"Did you know that now?"

"Even if I showed good intensions, you wouldn't accept it."

"...What are you up to?"

Only then did Kalen fully understand. No matter what he said, no matter what he gave, Kanna would never accept it. On the contrary, she would be suspicious and only increase her vigilance.

"I am here..."

Kalen stopped breathing once, then exhaled. It was very easy to cool down.

"I have come to offer you a deal."

"A deal?"

Kanna listened intently. She seems to have found something worth talking to.

"Say it."

Deal, contract. Kanna deals with others only with such things.

Kalen said, clearing his throat.

"Please continue to look after Luc's health."

"What? You still don't believe that she's been cured?"

"It's not like that. Lucy..."

Kalen let out a low sigh and continued.

"Lucy is not a particularly healthy child. Her physique is also small for her age, and her heart is weak."

"What happened?"

"She is the child of a maid. Brother or mother, especially Isabelle... They are not very friendly towards Lucy. On the contrary, there are many times when their behaves violently. That's why I'm always depressed."

Kanna seemed to know what Kalen as about to propose.

Lucy is seven years old. When a growing girl is stressed, of course there is a problem with her growth.

"Please make a restorative medicine that can strengthen the mind and body. Also, she's a kid who puts up with it even when she's sick, so please check her health often."

"What is the price?"

"I will give you whatever you want."

"Two thousand gold a month."

It was excessive compared to the work she was doing, but it was on the small side for a noble woman's monthly living expenses, so she went out strong on purpose. No matter how much she call, the opponent will cut anyway. However,

"Great."

"What?"

"Two thousand gold a month, and?"

What is he talking about, son of a bitch?

"It's not 2000 silver, it's 2000 gold. 2000 gold, in a month."

"There is no difference between 2000 silver and 2000 gold. If you want 2000 silver, I will give it to you."

"..."

Ah, right. The opponent was Kalen Addis.

"Is there something more?"

"...Give me an exclusive maid. Someone with proper skills and character."

"All right. And?"

"..."

"What else do you want?"

"Are you really going to listen? Why?"
