Chapter 101
(Kaoru)and something like that
We talked to everyone about what just happened today after having finished our dinner.
No well, if I talk about it while were still eating, the food will turn bad. Thus, I decided to talk after weve finished eating.
(Roland)Francette, you
Roland was looking at Francette with an astonished face.
Emile and Bell also saw Francette with reproachful eyes.
(Francette)W-wrong, there are no reasons for me to be looked with those reproachful eyesthat was Kaoru-chans personal opinion! Im innocent!
Francette desperately made some excuses.
However.
(Kaoru)But, at that time, you had a face like this, right?
Having said that, I pointed towards Emile and Bells face and Francette became crestfallen.
(Francette)..forgive me. I unintentionally remembered that time when I accompanied Hector-sama and Yunis-sama to their sick grandmother
Ahh, it was when Francette served under Earl Adans household, huh?
It was that time when I gave some potions to that siblings who were travelling together with their maid and Francette. They seemed to have a depressing atmosphere inside the carriage.
Francette is originally a good-natured person. Shes not the type who would abandon someone even if she only has the power to save herself.
unless its herself, her comrades or my enemies, though.
In this case, those who seek me to get the attention of the rich people and authorities are enemies in my eyes, but seems like it was different for Francette.
Well, because Francette wants me to be revered as a goddess, she would gladly welcome any goddess-like things from me.
However, Francette also wanted me to show my goddess power to draw peoples attention, including Roland, who is trying to interrupt my search for a marriage partner.
My surroundings will be filled with enemies, you know!
Dont joke with me!!
(Kaoru)Emile, Bell. This is a divine order for you two who are the members of Goddess Eyes.
(Emile & Bell)Yes!
Its not a joke or collusion when I said it with a proper attitude and a serious face. In their perspective, it was an absolute order. Hence, I need to be very careful about the instructions or else, they both will end up dying to even a single foolish action.
(Kaoru)Investigate that persons master, Baron Drivell, and his son, Charlot. However, I strictly order you to prioritize your own safety rather than the investigation.
For me, my servants are tens of thousands times more valuable than a strangers child. The fact that you will treat your life poorly means that you, as servants despise me and put your own life at risk. Your life is mine now. Therefore, I wont forgive you if you selfishly die without my permission!
As of now, this will be the second time following our time at the well, telling them that I will not allow you to die without my permission.
(Emile & Bell)Yes!
Emile and Bell rushed out once more after giving an energetic reply.
(Francette)M-me too!
I grabbed Francettes arm and restrained her when she was about to follow them.
(Kaoru)Francette is no good
(Francette)W-why. I-I also, a divine order
Ah~ A knight who has been given a divine order, huh? Thats a title which Francette would likely plunge into.
(Roland)A-am I not good?
Even Roland was standing up as I looked back because of his voice.
Ah~ he really wanted a divine sword, right? Roland also has a strong desire for this, huh.?
(Kaoru)No, those two have been doing this kind of work for a long time, so they are already used to it.
Indeed, you guys are superior to Emile and the others in combat power, but you arent good at gathering information without the other party realizing it, right?
In the first place, you two are too conspicuous.
Francette and Roland couldnt refute my words and they dropped their shoulders dejectedly.
This is kind of awkward
(Kaoru)Alright, this is a divine order! Francette, massage my shoulder!
(Francette)Y-yes!
When I said so jokingly, Francette took my words in seriously and quickly went behind me
(Kaoru)GYAAAAAA!! IT HURTS! IT HURTSSSSS!!
my shoulders were crushed by Francettes super strength as she forgot to save her power because of her excitement.
(Francette)Gyaa!!
And, in order to protect me, Riette-chan bite Francettes neck as it was only the exposed place to attack from behind.
(Kaoru, Francette & Riette)Hah-hah-hah-hah-hahhh
After that, Rolands eyes, when he saw us looking exhausted, were painful
***************
(Emile)This is the result of our investigation so far
Emile and Bell came back right before evening.
According to the reports, the children of Baron Drivells household are one boy and two girls. The orders are boy, girl and girl, and their age is 10, 7 and 5 respectively. The person called Charlot, whom the envoy has said before, is the name of the eldest son.
Thats a given for why he was so desperate
Well, of course its not as if he wont be desperate if theres a second son in line.
In addition, the Baron and his wife are not at the age where they cannot make children anymore.wait, is this related to the feelings of parents who were thinking about their children?
Anyway, the child named Charlot is, at this point in time, the only boy in the Drivells Household and is currently sick and in danger
(Emile)Baron Drivell is ranked B. The child named Charlot is ranked B+. We judged it thoroughly only by the rumors, but
Hoho, thats a pretty high rank.
This rank is an evaluation system used to determine whether the target should be rescued or not by using Goddess Eyes just like when we were in Balmore kingdom. C is for ordinary nobles, who is not good yet not so bad. D is for a little bad nobles and E is for trash, while B is for relatively good nobles and A is for generous nobles. These five ranks are divided even further into three ranks, that is minus, no sign, and plus. In total, there are 15 ranks that can be used for evaluation.
However, the rank B for adults and the rank B for children are, of course, will be depended on their situation and attitude. They would be deemed worthy to be given Goddess Mercy if theres nothing strange going on with them.
(Kaoru)Alright, lets move on to the second phase of the investigation. Please continue your investigation tomorrow.
(Emile & Bell)Yes!
This will be the first Angel work after leaving Balmore Kingdom.
Ah, I have already given up saying Im not an angel. Its useless even if I say it everytime, and if I handled the situation poorly, Francette might say, Kaoru-sama is not an angel but a goddess.
(Francette)Thank you very much, Kaoru-sama
Francette usually refers me as Kaoru-chan, but when theres no outsider and the topic is related to angel or goddess, she will call me Kaoru-sama. Well, it cant be helped, I just let herdo as she pleases.
(Kaoru)I will remind you that I do this not because of Francettes wish. Ive already decided to give salvation back when we were leaving Balmore Kingdom. Besides, the one who is giving mercy to the people in this town is Angel-sama, and not a girl named Kaoru who is the owner of Convenience Store Bell. So, theres no problem!
(Francette)Kaoru-sama
Although Francette looks at me with an awe-inspiring eyes, shes already worshiping me from the start, hence nothings changed. Even if you add 90C hot water to 90C hot water, it will still remain as 90C. Shes that type of person.
Now then, how should I do my work
