Chapter 729: 714 The Elves And Riko

With the current war being quite massive and yet our role is to remain on the sideline, I didn't waste my time staying in the game once there is nothing left to do. Without many players asking for help or buying my products due to how busy they were during the raid, I logged out from the game to rest for the remainder of the day.

After a good rest, I went out of my room and I felt a mana fluctuation on the rooftop. I frowned as that never happened before here even with Renatta present. There's no one around here since the siblings are currently in college, while Janus is presently working. Pandora and Suhei could be up on the roof but I still don't think they were there. There is a bigger chance that Renatta and Rika are upstairs though. As for Riko, I don't know yet but there is also a possibility that she was upstairs as well.

I immediately went upstairs and then I peek to see whether something is currently going on there and as expected, I do find someone in there.

Like the initial guess, Renatta and Rika were there. Even Riko and Pandora are also there playing with Pixie, and of course, the two elves who are currently having their two hands extended up in the air and seem to be gathering mana. No wonder the fluctuation of mana is weird, the two have been gathering for quite a while, perhaps to recover the mana in their bodies.

I went up and checked everyone and the two elves were surprised when I appeared while the others casually greeted me.

"Hey there, Manato. Checking up on the elves?" Rika asked when she noticed me climb up the stairs and close the door to the rooftop.

"Not really. I checked the area since I felt a weird mana fluctuation up on the rooftop and I thought something weird was happening. Are they recovering their mana?"

"Yep. Renatta suggested that with them the wife can now stand properly. With their current physique very weak at the moment, they really needed to recover all the mana in their body that was lost. We've been doing this since yesterday and it seems to be working properly for them which is great."

The two elves who are gathering mana stopped what they are doing and have their heads bowed down. Riko who was watching them shook her head.

"Guys, don't worry about him. He might be the owner of the house, but he does not get angry with what you are doing. Please continue on with what you are doing and don't worry if he watches. He doesn't get angry over this."

Renatta seems to understand the gist of it and tried to convey the words to them but since Pixie shook her head and took over, it seems that Renatta has difficulty in conveying our words in her own words which is a bit normal I guess knowing that she has barely studied our language and she barely understood it, though it already progressed quite far for her so I don't mind.

The two looked at me after Pixie told them the words of Riko and when I nodded in affirmation, they sighed in relief and continue to gather the mana that I interrupted when I went to check on them.

I sat with the others to check up on them, especially Riko.

"How are you now, Riko? Do you think you have regretted what you have chosen?" I asked.

"Me? Regret? Nah. Best choice I did so far and I didn't regret it one bit. Even if they made me do it again, perhaps I would choose the same choices I did the other night."

The hearing answer made me chuckle a little bit knowing what she has chosen in the past timeline is pretty different right now but since many things have changed, I didn't want to say much about her.

"Oy, what are you chuckling at there? You think my decision was funny?" Riko frowned when she noticed me chuckle.

"Hahaha, no. I was just surprised since you were so loyal to your parents before and you don't even want to disobey any of their wishes and now you are just basically saying to them "F*ck this sh*t, I am out" move on them which made them too shocked to understand immediately."

"Heh. Honestly, I was surprised by myself for being able to do that. Perhaps I have grown mentally without knowing of it myself."

I was wondering whether I should tell Riko about what her parents said when they visited the old house that Riko recently vacated. I thought I shouldn't do that but I ultimately decided that I should do it.

"Oh yeah, Riko. Remember that time when I left the car back in the parking lot near your home because no one will drive the truck full of your stuff back here?"

"Yeah, what's up? Something happening?"

"Yep. I didn't tell you immediately but I decided to do it anyways right now. Apparently, your parents are expecting you to come back to them sooner or later after you realize your wrongs and realize how harsh the world is for you without their help. Your father even expected you to go back to them in no time to beg for forgiveness."

"Wow, that's something. Even though I ran away from my family right now, they don't treat me like trash or anything in the same way although they are not better though," Rika chuckled.

Hearing what I just revealed, Riko shook her head and sighed. She is frowning but she didn't do much aside from that.

"Well, I guess they have to wait for a long time or I guess, forever since I don't think I will be coming back to them. They clearly don't know what their daughter is doing if they think that I wouldn't survive without their help. They don't even know that I am well sufficient enough to live by myself right now."

"Then? Why do you think you decided to crash into my place if you are self-sufficient?" I raised my eyebrow though I am clearly smiling, clearly teasing Riko.

"Hey, if you are with a mansion like this being your home with a housemate who is good at cooking, and hanging out with everyone has never been easier, why would I bother looking for my own house? Unless you sold this place to another owner, I think it's a bright idea for me to stay here and freeload, hahaha!"

I scratch my head at her shameless answer. "Hey, I know that I allowed you here, but don't just freeload like a lazy pig, do some housework here and there if you are free alright? Being very lazy and letting others take care of you is a very unhealthy mindset ya know? Also, just because you are living here, doesn't mean you can rely on me for anything."

Riko chuckled. "Hey, I might be lazy but I am not that much of a lazy bastard though. I know how to contribute and I take care of myself, though."

Then, we shifted the topic to the elves.

"So, what will happen to the elves after they recover? You don't want to enslave them, yeah?"

"I have to ask them to make a choice whether they will be staying with us or not. Knowing how dangerous it is for them, we have to find a way to let them return to their dimension again."
