With Katsuki helping us find the best route to run to avoid any monsters, we were able to lose them in the maze until we found the stairs that led to the next floor.
Edir was giving me a concerned look, "Umm… Mistress? Wh… Why were they after you?"
"Mmm… Long story short, some noble tried to mess with us, he got his ass kicked, so now he's sending someone else to kick our ass I guess?" I explained.
"E… Eh? Umm… Mistress doesn't sound worried about it?"
"Well, that's because they won't be able to beat us in an actual fight so we would be fine."
She shook her head, "No, I meant the fact that the noble is targeting you… Wouldn't he be able to ruin your family and your life with his authority?"
I giggled, "Ahaha~ I'm pretty sure he can't~ Let's just say that my family outranks him but he just doesn't know it~"
"I… I see…"
She went silent after that as we descended the stairs towards the next floor which was unsurprisingly a boss room.
