71. Request

While eating breakfast, Sia kept whining next to me.

“Cain also come…”

“No.”

“Whyeee!”

“You’re doing well in your workout.”

“Chii…”

Now, Sia was acting cute towards me quite a bit, and I was seeing other emotions mixed in with her other than dependence on me as I stroked her head and took a spoonful of soup from her expression and tone of voice.

Sia, who had been laughing at my touch, whined again when I tried to focus on my meal. So I put my mouth near her ear and whispered softly.

“Siaya.”

“Huh..?”

“If you work out hard today, I’ll give it to you orally later tonight.”

“Ugh…!”

Sia avoided me yesterday morning, but when I arrived at the dorm late at night after rolling around with Tanya, she was squatting in front of the door again, waiting for me.

I felt sorry so I quickly sent Sia away and put her to bed, but considering that she peed herself and made a fuss, it seems like she felt much better than I thought because she came back to me in just one day.

“Why? Not really…”

“Ah…No, I’ll work hard!”

It was cute how Sia felt better and lifted her arms, even though she had no muscles, and her flat, slender biceps were vaguely outlined.

“What are you two whispering about?”

“Ah~ I’m going to the union today to look at a request, but I told Sia to work out alone.”

“Ah~ Sia, then will you help me exercise?”

Now Claude’s gaze naturally lingered on Sia’s breasts and he spoke with a smile.

Sia snorted with an indecipherable expression and began to eat the soup and bread voraciously.

“Angning..! Are you okay!! Mumble, mumble!!”

“But we still exercise together in the open space…”

“It’s really okay!”

“Yeah…”

Claude continued eating with a bitter expression rather than a bewildered expression as he watched Sia’s reactions gradually change.

Then he turns to me and questions what I said a moment ago.

“Cain, is the request a labyrinth?”

“No, I’m going to look at the combination requests or individual requests that can be done in the city. Since Sia’s stamina is growing rapidly, I’ll earn the money.”

Even though she ran slowly, Sia, who used to complain that she would die if she walked for about 30 minutes, was now able to run slowly, and her stamina was gradually increasing.

The fat that used to be slightly more like aegyo-sal than belly fat on Sia’s lower abdomen had gone down, which was a bit disappointing, but the lower abdomen near her uterus still stuck out in an obscene way, so she pressed down on that flesh to console herself.

“No…me too…!”

“Okay. Did you forget?”

“Ugh… Okay.”

Claude, who was moving his body because he wanted to help out even though it was training, was unable to say anything because of the precedent, and immediately backed down and finished eating his breakfast after hearing my words.

“Go.”

“Cain, should I come quickly?”

“Okay.”

Ssss!

“Hehehe… Exercise!!!”

As I was leaving the dorm, Sia ran to me, patted my head again, and ran to the empty lot in her workout clothes.

After just eating breakfast, I stopped by Carmela’s shop and told her that I would be doing some work in the city for the time being and gave her a big hug.

Before our relationship got deeper, we didn’t visit the store often, but now that our relationship has gotten deeper, Camella is very sorry.

But I gave her a deep kiss as she blushed and said that she would wait patiently with the baby in her stomach, and headed to the union.

“Oh my! Mr. Cain!”

“Mr. Mi-on, are you busy today?”

“Moderately? It’s not as leisurely as the end of the month. Hehe… Mr. Cain… maybe today…?”

When I was dating Ms. Mi-on, I was usually waiting in front of the union building when she got off work.

Although we made some strange progress at her house, after that we only dated healthily, so when Ms. Mi-on saw me coming early, she stuttered, but it was impossible.

“No, I came today to look at a request.”

“Ahem..!”

“Why? Were you expecting it? Mr. Mi-on?”

“Keuk!! Ah…no…!”

“Yes, yes~”

“That’s not true!!”

“Okay, sis.”

“Ugh…! My heart!!!”

Today, too, Ms. Mi-on was seen holding her chest in a comical pose and making a fuss.

Although Siana Carmella has unusually large breasts, Ms. Mi-on doesn’t have small breasts either, so the top she wore to hug her breasts slightly opened up, revealing her bra.

“Oh… blue lace.”

“Eek!!”

Mi-on, who was late adjusting her clothes, coughed and took out the request documents and showed them to me.

“Um… The requests coming from the city are this way…”

“The gathering seems to be getting better, but the request status is not good lately?”

“Well… Sometimes that happens. The requests coming from the city these days are a bit lacking in nutrients.”

How is there nothing better to do than collect weeds?

As I was looking through the request documents, Mayu, who was at the reception desk next to me, sneakily approached Mion’s reception desk and pressed her large breasts against the partition to speak to me.

“Oh my! There’s that lukewarm one, right?”

“Sister Mayu?”

“Hello, Mayu”

“Yes~ Mr. Cain. Mion~ I guess you can give me what Mr. Hawk put in yesterday!”

“That…!”

Mayu looked at me with a faint smile and moved her upper body secretly so that her breasts continued to be pressed, and Mion was momentarily taken aback by her words and could not continue speaking.

“Huh? Mr. Hawk put in a request?”

“Ahahaha… That’s…”

“That’s right. Mr. Cain. That old man also didn’t make any personal requests for a while, but he’s been making requests to the union and going around here and there lately, right?”

“Sister… Stop it…!”

I heard it vaguely from the window, but did they make a similar request to the union?

Judging from Ms. Mi-on’s slightly unhappy expression, she seemed to know the old man’s circumstances quite well, and Mayu seemed to know to some extent as well.

“Oh my, aren’t you being too sensitive?”

“ Didn’t you cross the line enough, Unnie? It was a personal request, right?!”

“Okay~ Our Mi-on is too sensitive. Could it be… because of Mr. Cain? Hehe.”

“Sister!!!”

slap!!!

“Gyaak~! I’ll stop. Hohoho.”

“Ugh… What’s wrong with that girl these days…”

When Ms. Mi-on, unable to bear it any longer, slaps Mayu’s breast, Mayu screams with laughter and returns to her seat.

“Are you okay, Mr. Mi-on?”

“Yes…”

“Don’t be so excited, but can you take a look at the request that Mr. Hawk gave you?”

“Uhhh…. I’ll show you first.”

Mion, who had been grumbling for a moment, took out some documents from another drawer.

Looking at the commission that Mr. Hawk had given, it said that he would give a large reward to anyone who could find the necklace in the labyrinth, and a really elaborate drawing of the necklace was attached.

“Necklace?”

“Mr. Cain, you’ve heard that even if a relocation occurs, items dropped in the labyrinth are sometimes found a long time later.”

“Ah….”

“I guess Mr. Hawk wants to find this necklace at all costs.”

At first glance, it looked luxurious and the painting itself was so intricately drawn that it looked incredibly expensive.

“Is it like a heirloom?”

“Um…”

He returned the request form to Ms. Mi-on, who was reluctant to say anything else.

“I don’t think I’ve seen it on the public bulletin board.”

“Yes, let’s set the reward high and only charge the posting fee to the person in charge with the lowest cost…”

There are two main types of requests that are made through the union in the city.

Requests posted on the public bulletin board and assigned as quotas to the responsible receptionist.

The concept is that if you don’t give the quest to the explorers, there is no penalty and you get a small bonus.

There are also two types of requests made by individuals.

If you post on the union’s public bulletin board, an additional posting fee will be charged.

Instead, if you place a request only to the person in charge of the receptionist and the receptionist receives help from another investigator or another receptionist in charge and passes the request on, the request initiation fee is lower.

“But is there another reason why I only found out about this request now?”

“Ahem…!”

Although it was okay to reveal anything related to the request, except the information on the Explorer Card, I pushed my face in close to Ms. Mi-on, who was avoiding eye contact with me.

Swish-

Snap-!

“Huh! Mr. Cain?”

“Tell me quickly, Sister. Okay?”

“Huhhh.”

Before she could react in embarrassment, I held her hand and whispered in her ear, “Sister,” and her face turned red as if it was going to burst.

“Hurry up.”

“That…that…”

I briefly enjoyed her foolish reaction to my words as she stuttered and spoke, and then I stopped joking around.

“Okay.”

“….in?”

“Honestly, there must be a reason why Mion hid the fact that Hawk and I were close. I don’t really want to dig into it… If you have any better requests than gathering requests, please let me know.”

“Uh…yeah!! Okay..!”

As I let go of his hand and showed my intention not to dig in, Ms. Mi-on let out a breath and showed me the requests she could bring from the other employees.

But still, I didn’t see any requests that had any particular nutritional value.

“Hmm…”

“Ugh…”

“I’ll ask for a collection.”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Cain.”

In the end, since there was no request that I liked, I chose the herbal medicine gathering request.

My skill stat has been going up, and I’ve been collecting while watching Sia play around, but I think I’ll have to finish it faster than usual today.

“What does Ms. Mi-on have to be sorry about? She didn’t even make the request herself.”

“….”

“I’m going to do some light gathering today, so I’ll finish it up quickly and come back. Let’s eat after work.”

“Yes!!!”

When I suggested dinner to Ms. Mi-on, who had a apologetic expression on her face, her face brightened.

Today, I didn’t come out to collect, so I borrowed the collecting tools from Ms. Mi-on and was about to leave the union at the reception desk when Mayu suddenly poked her face in and waved at me, as if the explorer had left the desk next to me.

“Hello Mr. Cain~”

“Yes, Mayu-san”

“Sister!”

“Hehehehe why~ I just said hello.”

“Really!!!”

As Mayu and Mion’s grumbling grew louder, other receptionists nearby could be heard giggling.

Looking at the things Mayu is doing, rumors have already spread throughout the group.

Sigh… Until we completely conquer Sia, I think I should go to the union alone if possible.
