Paul and I just sat in the room.

No one spoke.

……

"Rudy, Aisha has the power to protect herself now, right?"

Paul suddenly spoke.

"Well, that's what Alice said."

"Really? It's probably no problem if I can get Alice's approval."

"I think so too."

"I see, this means that you don't need to worry too much about Ai Xia's safety, right?"

"Ah."

"In that case, there's actually nothing wrong with it."

Paul let out a long sigh.

"In the end... almost all members of our family have this problem, running away from home and so on."

"Whether it's you, Lilia, Janis, me, or even Luo Qixi."

"I ran away from home when I was 12 years old... Tsk, isn't this exactly the same as me? I can't scold you at all..."

Paul talked a lot to himself.

As if to convince myself.

So what should I say?

Although I want to shirk this responsibility, I also feel that there is nothing wrong with this...

But sure enough...

In the end, I still have to say something.

"Sorry, Father."

"Ah."

Paul nodded.

Then, he patted me hard on the shoulder.

"There's no need to blame yourself too much. After all, running away from home...is a fine tradition in our family. Rather, it's a good thing you came to me to discuss it first."

"Speaking of which, how should Lilia explain it?"

That's the problem.

Paul could accept Asia running away from home because he also left home at the age of 12.

But Lilia was different.

Lilia has hopes for Aisha.

If she found out that Aisha left her job as a maid and became an adventurer, she might be stunned on the spot.

Although I promised Ai Xia to solve this matter...

But anyway, it's better to ask Paul for help.

"Lilia, leave it to me."

Paul said.

"I will find a suitable excuse to let Lilia know that Aisha will not be a maid for the time being."

"What's a suitable excuse?"

"For example, being chosen as a brave man by a passing sage and embarking on a journey to defeat the Demon King... something like that."

"..."

I stared at Paul with strange eyes.

The latter smiled awkwardly.

"Hahaha, it's really a bit forced..."

"That's a terrible idea."

"Then say it directly."

"...Say it directly?"

"Well, instead of beating around the bush, it's better to change Lilia's mind directly. Anyway, the rice is cooked now..."

Hey Hey hey.

Your statement is more likely to be misunderstood.

"Leave this to me!"

Paul said.

It seems completely unreliable.

I can't believe him easily...

"Well, I think it's me..."

"No! Rudy, I am the head of the family after all, so I must say it!"

Paul said without giving up.

That being said.

I also promised to help Aisha solve Lilia's problem.

Therefore, I cannot give in.

Let’s fight for it again.

……

……

The argument lasted about half an hour.

Sudden.

There was a knock on the door.

Paul and I stopped at the same time and turned to look out the door.

"Master Paul, Master Rudeus, can I come in?"

It was Lilia's voice.

I subconsciously turned to look at Paul.

The latter took a deep breath.

"Come in, Lilia."

"Yes."

The door of the room opened.

Lilia, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was standing at the door, followed by a timid Norn.

"Master Rudeus, long time no see."

Lilia said with a smile.

"Well, it's been a long time no see..."

We haven’t seen each other for almost three or four months.

Lilia is still young and beautiful.

"father!"

Nolen trotted in and jumped on Paul.

"Why are dad and brother quarreling?"

Nolen looked up at me and Paul and said angrily.

"Huh? We..."

"Miss Nolen has been listening to your quarrel at the door just now. She seems to be very disturbed by this. Master Paul, Master Rudeus, what happened?"

Lilia also said a little uneasily.

"..."

"Let me tell you."

"Ah, um..."

Paul took a deep breath.

Then he looked at Lilia seriously.

"Lilia, a few days ago...Aisha said she was like an adventurer."

"Eh?"

Lilia was stunned.

Paul continued:

"Then, Rudeus and I discussed it and thought there was nothing wrong with this, so we agreed."

"Wait, eh? Why...Ai Xia..."

The expression on Lilia's face became extremely stunned.

As if he couldn't believe what he heard, he covered his mouth.

Nolen also looked at Paul blankly.
