Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1525 - 1066: How About... We Come Back Another Day?
The central mansion in the guarded area, along a corridor.
Reiger arrived here quietly, and alone.
He didn’t alarm anyone, stepping with a miraculous silent gait, minimizing his presence as he reached here and saw the person who arrived ahead of him.
"Sir."
Beluti seemed intent on not alarming others as well, cloaked in white robes, with a hood over her head, making her angelic features partly hidden until she saw Reiger arrive and then lifted her head, revealing a delicate face with a pure, flawless smile.
It must be said, that smile was highly infectious, even Reiger felt the urge to glance a few more times.
But he hid such thoughts well, approaching Beluti with a calm expression.
"Sorry to keep you waiting again."
Reiger smiled helplessly.
There was no choice; the agreed meeting time had passed by nearly twenty minutes.
In other words, Reiger was about twenty minutes late, so he should apologize.
If this were in a past life, daring to let such a beautiful girl wait, he’d probably be cursed out thoroughly.
Yet Beluti didn’t mind at all, rather, she understandingly said.
"Sir, you were delayed because of Her Highness the Princess and Lady Naisa, right? Then it can’t be blamed on you!"
Evidently, Lady Saint had already guessed the reason for Reiger’s tardiness.
This was indeed the case.
"Who would have known what happened last night?" Reiger sighed and said: "Now I have to come out alone again and meet with Princess Lilicia like this, one can easily imagine Melo and Naisa won’t be pleased."
For this outing, Reiger had to meet two people who were at odds with Melo and Naisa, so it stands that the two wouldn’t be pleased at all.
Moreover, after what happened last night, it’s clear that Melo and Naisa would be even more displeased with Reiger repeating the same mistake.
"So, Sir, did you sneak out again this time?"
Beluti seemed a bit embarrassed.
She always felt like she was a bad woman, knowing full well Reiger shouldn’t go out alone, yet constantly luring him away.
"No." Reiger shook his head and said: "This time, I informed them in advance."
Just to persuade those girls, Reiger spent some time, causing the delay.
If he could sneak out, he wouldn’t be late.
Of course, he didn’t dare sneak out now.
In broad daylight, if he disappeared in front of Melo and Naisa, it would surely cause big trouble.
So, Reiger deliberately spent some time convincing them, getting their agreement for him to go out.
For this purpose, he exhausted his arguments, and had to finally use "I also need some private space" as a reason, otherwise Melo and Naisa wouldn’t have agreed.
Mainly because Melo and Naisa also didn’t dare stick too closely to Reiger, fearing he’d resent them, thus they compromised.
"In any case, I have received permission this time, you can rest assured."
Reiger comforted Beluti, allowing her to let out a sigh of relief.
Seeing Beluti’s relieved expression, Reiger continued.
"You actually didn’t have to come, just resting well in the room would be fine."
Unlike Reiger and the others, Beluti’s strength was not particularly strong, it could even be said quite weak, almost no different from average women in the Source World.
Naturally, she wasn’t like Reiger and others, able to maintain a good mental state even without sleep. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Considering this, Reiger hadn’t planned to have Beluti introduce on his behalf, but Beluti volunteered, insisting on introducing him.
"After all, Princess Lilicia and I are old acquaintances, and I’ve traveled in the Dwarf territories, establishing good relations with many Dwarves, perhaps I might be able to help you." Beluti smiled at Reiger, speaking softly: "Please don’t worry about me, I understand my own body, I know myself best."
With Beluti’s words, Reiger felt relieved.
After all, she was a renowned saint of Source World, perhaps weak in strength, but an expert in healing and restoration, surely capable of resolving any mental fatigue.
Reiger said nothing further, after chatting a bit more with Beluti, they set off together towards Lilicia’s room.
...
Lilicia’s room was also on the mansion’s top floor, but in another location.
According to Beluti, Lilicia and Pasiphus’s situation here was the same as Reiger’s, living in a suite, only theirs was much smaller with only three bedrooms, accommodating up to three people.
Originally, Lilicia and Pasiphus had invited Beluti to stay there, but she politely declined the sibling pair’s offer and lived alone in another single-room on a different floor.
Yet, Beluti knew well where Lilicia and Pasiphus lived, leading Reiger to their door as if familiar with the path.
"We’re here, Sir." Beluti said to Reiger beside her: "Let me knock."
With that, Beluti prepared to step forward and knock.
