<h4>Chapter 730 - Gi’s Circumstances</h4>
Gi is the reason why Hermes is free.
What do you mean by that?
It’s true that Hermes is Versa’s maid and is with her most of the time but it’s not like she can’t leave Versa.
After all, Versa is a hikikomori.
Therefore, Hermes sometimes goes alone when shopping to replenish their daily necessities.
This has not changed even after Versa came to live in Big Tree Vige and Vige Five.
Is it possible that there was a contract between Versa and Hermes I don’t know about and Gi broke it?
「Ah, no, it’s not thatplicated……」
Gi started his exnation.
-0-
It all started with the ruins of a city north of Shashaato City.
It involved an explosion that urred at the ruins of that city that they had previously tried to use for filming.
Gi had hidden arge number of books and videos in the ruins.
There is no doubt that the contents of the books and videos are something that……Versa would enjoy.
Gi hid them because of the mischievousness of his youth. To be exact, he wanted to keep them in the dark……
Simply put, Gi starred in those books and videos.
「I’m not the main actor! I only have supporting roles, supporting roles!」
Ah, yeah, of course, you do.
Let’s see…Gi has supporting roles in those books and videos.
「W-when I was trying a lot of things, I think I have lost my mind desu.」
Y-yeah.
Well, to Gi’s credit, I won’t delve into the details.
However, for Gi, those were books and videos that had to be destroyed.
However, when the devils came to serve the dragons, there was a use in the contract saying that they wouldn’t intentionally destroy culture and it would be a vition of the contract to dispose of the books and videos.
「I asked them over and over again but all they said is “no”……」
He said that the contract is quite important to the devils and they can’t and won’t break it.
So, he has no choice but to hide the books and videos and forget about them, and then, boom, the explosion urred.
Most of the books and videos were burned in the explosion but unfortunately, a good number of books and videos remained unburned.
After retrieving them, Gi tried to hide them again.
However, he had no idea where to hide them.
The safest ce he could think of is Big Tree Vige but because of Versa, such books and videos were forbidden to be brought in.
Vige Five and Shashaato City have high poptions so he would need to keep a watchful eye on them all the time to feel at ease.
Dragon-rted facilities are out of the question.
They are full of people who have too much time on their hands.
They will jump at anything new no matter what it is.
Furthermore, there are also devils who are like-minded to Versa.
It’s not even worth considering.
In the forest and in the dungeon…adventurers maye.
Adventurers are nuisances who wille to any dangerous ce even thinking that every dangerous ce has treasures hidden.
Threatening them will have the opposite effect and only in a hundred years will their threat be forgotten.
Where should he hide it then?
The best ce to hide a tree is in the forest.
Then, if you want to hide such books and videos…put them in a ce that keeps them.
There’s no ce like that!
No, wait.
There is.
Right.
Versa’s house.
「I’ve never been there but vige chief told me what the house looked like.」
If he throws it in there, no one will find them.
The question now is, will the owner, Versa, notice them?
………
…………………
He changed the way he thinks.
His purpose is to keep those books and videos from being seen by an unspecified number of people.
As distasteful as it is, he had already assumed that Versa would find them.
No, if they are with Versa, those things will be never seen by the public again.
If he finds something simr in the future, he can rest easy knowing that everything he needs to hide is in Versa’s repository.
With these conditions, Gi handed the books and videos to Versa.
This should have been the end of the story.
But Gi had overlooked something.
He had overlooked the existence of a maid named Hermes.
Note: Pretty sure Birkin is living there too.
Hermes is Versa’s maid.
Is it out of loyalty?
No.
It is because they are like-minded people who are in love with Versa’s works.
In other words, Hermes was also interested in the books and images that Gi gave Versa.
However, Versa must fulfill the condition Gi had set.
Versa and Hermes quarreled because of that.
Result.
Hermes left Versa’s side and went to Shashaato City to y.
Gi was pleased when he heard it from Versa.
He thought he made the right decision.
As for the fight between Versa and Hermes, he can only feel sorry for them.
However, he nned to intervene when the time was right.
ording to Versa, fights between her and Hermes were not umon.
They fight about once every hundred years or so.
Sometimes, they make up in half a day, other times, they won’t be seeing each other for several years.
There is a little chance that they will continue to quarrel.
Versa was confident that she woulde back once her new work waspleted.
So, Gi did not take it seriously.
Until he heard what kind of trouble Hermes had caused after she left Versa.
Hermes is a perfectionist.
However, she has a unique standard of judgment.
She ignores the flow of the world.
Because of how perfectionist she is, simple problems can be quite big if she gets involved.
On top of that, Hermes has no malice.
Leaving the details of the trouble for another time, Gi panicked.
He was in the midst of taking action to bring Versa and Hermes together in a hurry when he heard about the trouble.
「While looking at the problem, a new one popped out…fufufu, when Prada told me about Beton, all I can do was scream but when I heard the report the vige chief had gone out in the middle of the night, I almost went on a rampage…」
Gi stared into the void.
Ah, I did not leave about that issue though, I’m only going to search for a missing person.
I don’t know who reported it but teach them how to do it properly.
-0-
Well, I’ve heard Gi’s circumstances one way or another……
The battle started because Hermes is free…so, he’s like the root cause?
I don’t think it’s enough to tie him up though.
Alright, let me untie you.
「Thank you very much.」
No no.
You don’t have to but if possible, it would be helpful if you could help Hermes and Versa make up.
This is a request.
「Of course.」
Loo, what do you think?
「I don’t think Gi is the root of all evil so it’s fine.」
I see.
Good.
…
By the way, who do you think is the root of all evil?
「Count Pugyaru」
………
…………………
He’s a victim.
「Given his social standing, he should have either resist or leave a message for someone when Hermes took him out.」
W-well, yes, that may be so.
Y-yeah, how about the human assassins?
What about them?
「They were just doing their job. We can decide that the country that sent them was at fault but…」
You can but what?
「Should we destroy it?」
………
…………………………
Jeez, good joke.
Hahahahahaha.
Come on Loo, everyone,ugh,ugh.
While I was having a hard time, Dors came over to me.
「How about you leave the matter of your wives for now and listen to what Beton has to say?」
Beton-san?
The assassin’s case is over, right?
Another issue?
No, I think that’s important but I also think that talking with Loo and the others is important.
「I understand however, leave the matter with your wives to this dragon king.」
O-ohhhh.
Dependable.
「I’ve been meaning to warn you about this for a while. Don’t worry about it.」
Warn me?
「The content will put too much burden on you. Okay, go, go.」
Okay, got it.
「Ah, Gi, using vige chief to prove your innocence is not a verymendable move. I’ll let you off this once.」
「Yes! I’m aware!」
?
What do you mean?
「The fact that you untied him with your own hands. Well, vige chief can do what you want. You don’t need to worry about it. Just listen to what Beton has to say.」
I don’t know what’s happening but…okay.
I headed to Beton-san.
