"I...understand...understand." Lukia said tremblingly.

"That's good." Mu Hantian smiled slightly and withdrew his strength.

"Lu" Qia stood up unsteadily, and looked at Mu Hantian in fear.

"The room was fine this time, I hope that doesn't happen again."

"I see." Lucia bowed her head respectfully, but her hands were still trembling.

"By the way, now, can you please bring us to meet Ramthas? We also have our own life itinerary, and hope to go back as soon as possible."

After hearing Mu Hantian's words, "Lucia" shook her head and replied: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ramsas is out of the city just now for business, please wait until tomorrow to meet again."

"Not here? Isn't he the one who came here?" Youxi frowned and asked.

"Yes. If I visited the mansion a few days ago, there would be no problem with Lord Ramthus's itinerary. However, just as you have your own itinerary, we also have various affairs. Especially now, Our Moderate faction and the current Demon Lord faction led by Leohart are in a time of war."

Lucia went on to say: "Master Ramthas is the leader of the Moderate faction, and he is usually busy with official duties. Unfortunately, there is an important matter that must be dealt with today. We have waited for more than a month to cooperate with everyone's schedule. Can't wait even a day?"

"Okay, then we'll wait another day."

"Thank you for your understanding."

When "Lu" Qiya said this to Mu Hantian, someone knocked on the door and entered the room.

"Everyone, please have some tea."

It was a beautiful maid with brown skin.Mu Hantian and the others all knew this girl who was slowly approaching with a metal trolley full of tea sets.

"Jest, long time no see!" Mu Hantian called out her name.

"Hello." Jest nodded to Mu Hantian's call and said, "Long time no see, Mu Hantian——no, it should be Mr. Hantian."

Seeing Zester like this, Hu Tao leaned into Yuxi's ear and asked, "Is she that Zest?"

"Yes, he used to be Zolgear's subordinate." Yuxi nodded and answered Walnut who had never met Zest face to face.

"You seem to be having a good time here...that's great."

"Yes. Zest is very grateful for your concern."

"Jest will be responsible for the daily life during Mr. Han Tian's visit. If you have any needs, please ask her directly. You are welcome. Zester——you will take Mr. Han Tian to his room later."

"As you order, Lord Lucia."

Seeing Zester saluting and accepting orders, Lucia said "Hello" and continued: "Everyone must be somewhat tired after the journey. There is still some time before dinner, please stay in this room for a while, We will let you know when the meal is ready. Goodbye."

"Lucia" saluted and turned to leave—but turned around in front of the door and said, "Maria—after drinking Zest's tea, remember to go to my room, where are you?" make a detailed report on all the actions taken.”

"Okay, I understand, "Lukia-sama."

After Maria nodded slightly, "Lukia" really left the room.

Staying here to rest before dinner actually means not leaving this room.

Although a little upset, everyone had no other place to go, so they stayed here.

Mu Hantian drank the tea that Jeste made for them.After sitting down around the sofa at the big table in the center of the room, Jeste put the tea set in front of everyone, picked up the white porcelain teapot and poured tea one after another, and Mu Hantian took a sip immediately.

"The aroma and taste are similar to the black tea we usually drink."

"There are completely different kinds of tea in the Demon Realm. Considering that this is your first time here, I will try my best to choose the tea that is closest to the taste of the Human Realm...do you still like it?"

"Yeah, it's delicious, Zest."

"That's it, that's great." Zest smiled happily.

"You guys have a good atmosphere... I haven't even drunk the tea yet, why did I warm it up first?" Mio, who was watching Mu Hantian and Zest's conversation, said stingingly.

"Sorry... I didn't mean that..." Zester apologized with a sad expression, and poured tea for Mio's teacup.

After that—the atmosphere in the room became a little tense.Mio was convinced that they were the adoptive parents of her biological parents, but unfortunately they were slaughtered by the high-ranking demon Zolgear—and Zest was his subordinate.

Of course, Zest was only obeying the orders of his master Zolgear, and had nothing to do with the death of Mio's adoptive parents; Moderate.It would be too cruel for Mio if Mio were to give up killing her kinsader Zolgear with her own hands, and then ask her to live with the enemy's subordinate, Zest.Because of these reasons, when Zester temporarily stayed at Dongcheng's house, Mio hardly spoke to her, and Mu Hantian also let Mio go.

However——when Zester took a step back after pouring the tea, Mio picked up the teacup and said, "Really... I'm afraid that you will be abused here. It's really useless to worry."

This sentence with a "hum" surprised everyone present.

Zester froze completely.

"Huh—how, how...?" Mio noticed that her eyes were focused on her, and frowned suspiciously.

Most likely, Mio herself didn't realize the significance of what she just said.I don't know how much of Zest's burden can be relieved by a casual murmur.

This kind of Mio looked so cute in Mu Hantian's eyes, he couldn't help reaching out and stroking her head.

"Hey, what are you doing, brother—why is this all of a sudden?"

"No, no reason. I just think you've grown up." Mu Hantian smiled and said to Mio who didn't move her hand away even though she was confused.

"Could it be that I was just a child in your eyes before?" Mio said with some dissatisfaction.

"That's right, although your body has grown up, some of your behaviors are really like children."

"Hmph." Mio snorted arrogantly, and turned around.
