The village chief completely understands that this kid is not for Lord Cuizi after such twists and turns! The land of this maple village is barren, and there are always youkai infestation around it.

If it weren't for the Demon Hunting Village, they would either starve to death or be played to death by monsters in this place. It's a fool who wants this hot potato place.

Alas, they were too excited and miscalculated just now, so they not only lost the initiative. It also made Mizuko-sama lower her vigilance against that cunning guy. In this way, maybe Mitsune-sama will really ......

.....

At this time, there was silence in the makeshift cell. Tsuiko looked like she wanted to say something to Makoto Ashbara, but she knew that this person didn't seem to like her very much. Her next request was really hard to say.

As if he couldn't see it, he picked up the teacup in his hand and savored it. Although it was just a glass of boiled water, for some reason, Makoto Gray always felt something else. It's a little sweeter than usual, maybe it's because the water is a spring.

The black bear who stayed on the side felt that the atmosphere was wrong, even more weird than when he first met his mother-in-law. So he casually found an excuse and hurriedly left this place of right and wrong.

......

Cuizi, who hesitated, finally took the initiative to speak, after all, she wanted to seize the opportunity in front of her, whether it was for herself or the villagers, she had to become stronger!

"Seven Nights City Lord, can you teach me how to become stronger?" Tsuiko was prepared to be humiliated by the person in front of her, after all, whether it was a samurai or a mage, the cultivation method would only be passed on to his descendants or his disciples. No one will easily divulge the way to become stronger, because there is no profit to gain and their weaknesses will be exposed. Tsuiko knew her request was rude, but she couldn't help it. She has to get stronger in the shortest possible time, no matter what it takes. And the teenager who is younger than her in front of her may have a way.

"Oh! Yes! It's just that I and you are a great good man who scatters his wealth for no reason. Are you ready for the price? Makoto Gray Yuan put down the cup in his hand and looked at Tsuiko with a resolute and persistent face with a demonic smile.

"I... Don't know how much you're asking for? I have two taels of silver, and I can give it all to you. Tsuiko said through gritted teeth. That's all her money. And it was she used to prepare for the herbs.

"Oh! How much? Two taels of silver? Hahaha, Miss Tsuiko, you're so cute! I don't want your money, I want your people! Well, would you still like it? Makoto Gray Hara couldn't help but laugh when he saw Tsuiko say such cute words. He stood up and walked over to Tsuiko who was kneeling, bending slightly and touching Tsuiko's hair. It looks like it's evil.

"I ...... Willing. "Tsuiko didn't resist Makoto Grayhara's rude actions. If that's all there is to it, what about sacrificing one's own body? She didn't want to, but she couldn't. The villagers were willing to give their lives to protect her, so how could she give up guarding the villagers because of her own unwillingness.

And if she doesn't agree, will the person in front of her not save them in the Maple Village? She can't bet.

Makoto Hibara lifted Tsuiko's chin and saw the beautiful eyes that seemed to glow, and he could feel her sadness and how determined she was to say these simple words. That's what he wants. smiled and let go of the beauty in front of him, and stretched out a gesture to lead her up.

"Don't worry, Mikoto-sama. Just kidding you. Don't mind. I'm not going to do anything to your body. I want you to be my retainer, oh no, it's good to be a guest. How's that, promise? ””

"I promise, so what will I call you in the future? The lord of the city? Or is it the head of the house? Tsuiko didn't feel humiliated at this point, well, actually, it's still a little. This man is poisonous, right? Is it funny to play tricks on her all the time?

But she was more fortunate in her heart, thinking about it. After all, the lord in front of him is still a child. I don't think I have the ability to do that kind of thing. Tsuiko is different from other girls, as a shrine maiden and a powerful shrine maiden. She is proficient in medical science, and she also knows a thing or two about that kind of thing.

"Nope! I give you permission to call me young master in the future. "It's not Makoto Ashbara's bad taste. It's just compared to the titles of city lord, master, and house master. He still felt that the title of young master was more easy-going and intimate. Moreover, being a rich boy has always been his wish.

"Young Master?" Cuizi was a little puzzled why she was called Young Master. Wouldn't it be better to call the lord of the city? But forget it, now there is a demand for people, and people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Whatever he said was what it was, and she confessed.

"Hey! Don't hurry up yet! Don't you want to learn it yet? Seeing a stunned Tsuiko there, Makoto Gray began to urge. In fact, even if Tsuiko doesn't ask him, he will take the initiative to teach her some methods. After all, he saw her strength in his eyes and was a usable person.

He could see that this girl didn't have any clever skills, but she was still so powerful. She's definitely a supernatural talent.

He took a fancy to it
