Chapter - 29 [ #V1.12 : Danmachi : Servant - Cat girls! ]

Seeing the departing figure of two mature women, Haruhime asked,

"Are you into mature women, Ash-sama?"

This made him twitch his cheeks awkwardly. But he decided to answer her truthfully.

"In truth, I don't really have a specific requirements for who I will be with. No matter who they are, unless they are my enemy, I consider them all perfect. Though the feelings are different. I will only accept if both parties have mutual feelings. In other words, I have to feel the same for it to work."

He was giving her a hint, and of course she understood it. He can see that by looking at her wagging tail.

"That means I can be your lover as well, right?"

She asked expectantly without shying away. He smiled and said,

"Of course. But you can't be one if you join my Familia. Since it's the rule that gods and their children can't have a relationship. Well, it doesn't really matter."

Although he was saying the truth, he doesn't really care. Besides, Orna who's already his lover is now under him. So, he can't refuse anyone else. He was just thinking if he forced her with this reason, she will leave him. However, against his expectations, she said eagerly,

"Then, I'll be your servant!"

This shocked him. Isn't lover a more higher position than a servant?

"Are you sure? That would mean your position will be in the lowest. Although I don't intended treat you as a servant, it still not a good idea."

Astonishing him once again, she said,

"I'm sure! Besides, did you know? Servants receive more love compared to lovers..."

Her words accompanied by a blush and the twitching of her ears and tail made it so cute that he unknowingly held his heart.

'Cute!'

He hurriedly hugged her making the Young Renard startled. But she didn't shy away, instead hugged him back.

"You are too precious..."

He said making her giggle. Then she said,

"If you don't mind, please make me your servant, Ash-sama. I don't mind how you treat me as long as I'm near you. I was ready to throw away this life of mine when I was captured. You are the one who gave it back it to me. I will be more than just happy to serve you till my end."

She then sat on the ground like a Japanese wife waiting for her husband with her knees on the ground. Then she bowed till her head touched the floor, she said,

"Please allow me!"

He shook his head and pulled her up with telekinesis making her startle again. But she let him do whatever he wants. After she was once again back to her feets, he said,

"I accept, and you will be mine forever. Even if you wants to, I will not let you leave. And although I said you are my servant, I'll treat you no different from others from my familia. If you want to be my lover and servant at the same time, you will have to make me fall for you."

He said with a smile and removed his Mask. He never showed her his face. He was sure if he showed her his face, she will instantly fall for him. Not because of his handsomeness, but because he was her hero too.

But showing his face proved even more difficult as the moment the mask left his face, Haruhime was breathing heavily while blushing. Her eyes were watery and her body was trembling.

She hurriedly turned back to hide her blushing mess of a face. He chuckled and whispered in her ears,

"If you don't make me fall for you, I'll be the one to make you fall for me~"

He left after saying that. As for Haruhime, she bit her bottom lip and muttered,

"You already did...."

...

He still had about four more days till the party returns after their raid. Till then, he will be enjoying Orario fully.

He wanted to meet many characters like Eina, Riveria, and the hiryute twins. But he decided not to as they were essential for Bell's growth. Although he already stole Ais, the word will continue to revolve around bell and the other girls after his departure.

'Shall I go to the infamous Hostess Of Fertility? I can see two cat girls~~'

He smiled and walked towards the place run by Mia.

After walking for a half an hour, he reached the famous place filled with people. As he entered, a giant of a woman stood in front of him, glaring at him.

Well, it was normal since he was wearing his mask. Well he will wear it when he goes around. Because he didn't want to charm just anyone ok the street.

"Care to move, Mia?"

He didn't really need to call her with honorifics considering his status. But the other party didn't really cared about that all. But she asked,

"You know me?"

"Of course I do. How can I not know someone who worked under that girl?"

This made Mia understood one thing. This person knows about her previous relationship with Freya. As for how he called her previous goddess a girl, this made Mia confused a little.

"Are you a God?"

She asked with a confused voice. He nodded and released a little of his divinity. She gasped and nodded.

"I apologize. But may I ask you something?"

"What is it?"

"Why did you call Freya-sama a girl? I mean not her gender but how you called her?"

"Because in front of me, she is still a small girl."

Although not entirely wrong, he was still way older than her, according to his status. Mia raised her brow as although she doesn't know the exact age of her goddess, she still know the Freya was one of the oldest gods to exist. So, this man must be from older generation than Freya, that was her thoughts.

"I see. I apologize once again. Please take a seat. Our waitresses will come serve you soon."

He nodded and walked towards an empty table and sat on it. He didn't have to wait a whole lot as he felt a touch on his shoulder and to his guess, he saw a black haired cat girl staring at him with a teasing and intersted smile.

'Chole Lolo, huh... Well, she was one of the reason for my visit.'

"Hello, Customer. What would you like to order-nya?"

"I'll take your recommendation, Kuroneko-chan~"

(A/N : Kuroneko-chan means Black cat girl. *Kuro is black. *Neko is Cat. Just mentioning it for those who doesn't know.)

Hearing her new nickname, Chloe's tail stood straight in amusement and slight embarassment.

"Nyahahaha.... I'm sorry nya... I forgot to introduce myself nya... My name is Chloe. Chloe Lolo nya!"

He nodded and said,

"Then Kuroneko-chan, I'm very hungry. Please bring something to eat~"

Hearing him, she understood that he was teasing her.

"Understood, Mask-man-san."

This made Ash and other customers to laugh aloud making the black cat to squirm in embarassment. She wasn't the one supposed to be feeling shame!

"My name is Ash. Although I don't mind if you want to call me that. I'll still call you Kuroneko-chan though."

His words made her puff out her cheeks and leave. He shook his head seeing her actions. A cat is indeed mischevious and cute.

While Chloe was gone, he sensed a gaze from afar and saw another familiar face. It was an elf. It was Ryuu Lion! She was staring at him. But he ignored her gaze. The other cat girl who wanted come and tease him stopped when she saw Chloe's fate. It was the brown haired cat, Anya Fromel. Sensing his gaze on her, she blushed and hide behind the Ryuu.

He once again shook his head and waited for his food to come.
