IUD-Chapter 601 Leave

After that, Fang Li went straight back to his room and waited for Emilia and Rem to return.

In the meantime, he didn't come out of his room once.

Since it was noon when he returned, it didn't take long before Ram came to invite Fang Li to lunch.

But Fang Li, who had lived here for a whole month, knew better than to expect much.

Unlike the almighty Rem when it came to housework, Ram's domestic skills were almost all below par. She was more of an ornament than a maid.

And the only thing Ram could cook well was steamed sweet potatoes.

Fang Li didn't want to fill his stomach with just steamed yam when he came back.

So Fang Li immediately refused without hesitation, earning a scornful look from Ram before this maid Big Sister left.

By the way, Ram didn't eat lunch either, probably because she'd had enough of sweet potatoes in the past few days.

It wasn't until the evening that Emilia and Rem finally returned.

In the hall of the Roswaal mansion, Fang Li had just come downstairs when he saw Emilia and Rem being ushered in by Ram.

As always, Rem maintained her perfect maid's demeanor, showing no signs of fatigue even after a full day's work.

Perhaps this had something to do with Rem being an Oni with strong physical abilities?

On the contrary, Emilia looked exhausted.

Seeing Emilia like this, Fang Li spoke with a wry smile on his face. "It seems like it wasn't very smooth..."

Emilia only replied with a complex smile.

Obviously, Emilia's efforts to calm the citizens under the jurisdiction of the Mathers had run into a few bumps along the way.

"But at least we managed to prevent panic from spreading."

Saying this, Emilia's mood lifted slightly, as if she felt the effort was worth it, and her smile began to show a hint of determination.

"Even though everyone... is still upset, at least they accepted my explanation and didn't cause any more trouble."

With these words, there was indeed a hint of relief in Emilia's tone.

"This is also due to Fang Li Sama's influence." Rem, who accompanied her, finally smiled and said, "Because everyone knows that Emilia Sama has received the Dragon's approval. Even if they do not easily accept Emilia Sama in their hearts, they still consider this point and restrain their inner resistance and impulsiveness".

It's true.

If it weren't for the Dragon's approval, even if Emilia talked until she was blue in the face, no one would obediently listen to the consolation of a silver-haired Half Elf, right?

So this can also be considered as the influence that Fang Li brought.

"Really..." Emilia clasped Fang Li's hand and held it in front of her like a prayer, and there was an endless feeling of gratitude and warmth in her purple eyes.

On the side, Ram stood quietly, although she didn't say anything, it was obvious that she knew something. It seemed that she had also received the news and knew what had happened at the Royal Selection meeting.

Looking at Emilia and then at Rem, Ram sighed softly in her heart.

Because only Ram noticed that from the moment Fang Li came downstairs, both Emilia and Rem had their eyes fixed on Fang Li's body and never looked away for a moment.

Though unruly and unconventional, Ram was still a girl.

So Ram knew as to what was the point of this behavior.

(Although I don't understand why Emilia Sama and Rem are acting like this...)

After all, even by Ram's extremely picky standards, Fang Li was an outstanding individual.

Even though he constantly clashed with Fang Li verbally, deep down, Ram also greatly admired Fang Li.

As Rem had once said, Fang Li's carefree and independent nature was similar to Ram's in many ways.

Therefore, Ram probably trusted Fang Li more than even Emilia Sama and Rem.

(However, this feeling of trust probably can't be compared to the emotions Emilia Sama and Rem feel...)

That's what Ram thought.

It was truly remarkable how Fang Li had managed to gain the trust of so many people in this mansion after only one month. Fang Li was indeed an exceptional person.

(Even Lady Beatrice...)

While Ram was thinking about this, just as Emilia Sama and Rem were both smiling at Fang Li, Fang Li unexpectedly said something completely out of context.

"If that's the case, even if I leave this mansion, you should be able to handle things on your own."

A sentence froze the entire atmosphere.

"Leave?" Emilia covered her mouth in shock.

"Leave?" Rem's expression stiffened.

"Leave?" Ram looked at Fang Li with blatant surprise.

Seeing the incredulous reactions of the three girls, Fang Li smiled bitterly once again, but he didn't beat around the bush and explained directly.

"I originally came here to deal with the Witch Cult, and now that the Witch Cult has been dealt with and you have even overcome the Royal Selection's initial difficulties smoothly, I don't have any reason to stay here anymore, do I?"

Hearing this, both Emilia and Rem spoke up at the same time, except for Ram.

"There is no such thing!"

At that moment, Emilia and Rem's expressions were unusually anxious.

"How can there be no reason?" Emilia couldn't hide her annoyance. "You... you've helped me so much, and I haven't even been able to repay you!"

"Just like Emilia Sama said." Rem also showed an unusual sense of urgency and said, "Fang Li Sama's help to us is already beyond words. Please stay, no matter what!"

"...Roswaal Sama once instructed that the most respected person in this mansion, besides Emilia Sama, is Fang Li Sama." Surprisingly, Ram remained silent for a while, then She said calmly, "We have an obligation to accommodate you, and it's perfectly fine for Fang Li Sama to stay here as long as he wants. I believe Roswaal Sama would give the same answer."

The three girls all expressed their desire for Fang Li to stay.

This actually caught Fang Li off guard.

However, Fang Li still smiled slightly and said such a line.

"I also have my own things to take care of, so I can't stay in this mansion forever. So please don't try to keep me here. It's not like we'll never see each other again."

"We'll definitely meet again in the future, right?"

"Definitely..."

After hearing this, Emilia Sama, Rem, and Ram all knew that this matter was irreversible.

At that moment, the three girls fell silent.

Until a long... long time passed.
