Walking over to Erhart's shop, all five of them went inside. Even now there was tension in the air, but Andrew placed the boxes next to the others and then looked at Melti. She in turn carefully walked over to Naofumi and wanted to start talking, but she was nervous. Raftalia stood next to Firo and gently held her by the shoulders. Erhart, on the other hand, watched this silent gathering in silence.

This silence continued for some time and Naofumi took the initiative to speak.

- And when were you going to tell us that you were from the royals? Or were you not going to say anything, but wanted to stab us in the back later, or a similar meanness like your sister! -

The last words sounded sharper and louder than the others, causing Melti to flinch and squeeze her eyes shut slightly. Seeing this Andrew walked over to her and put his hand on her shoulder, then looked at Naofumi and began to speak.

- Naofumi, be gentle, I don't think even you would like it if you were spoken to like that. So take a breath and calm down, and you Melty don't have to be afraid, speak calmly. -

Melti looked at Andrew and nodded with a small smile, then her gaze went to Naofumi and began to speak.

- Please forgive me for withholding the truth, but it was necessary for your own safety. My mother gave me a message to contact you and provide assistance. -

Hearing this Andrei immediately smiled slightly with understanding. His hunch about Melti was true, and the mysterious lady was the queen, and perhaps she was wiser and kinder than the king. But what happened after these words Andrei did not like.

- Why should I believe you or your mother, your family is my enemy and I want nothing to do with you. So go away, and it's best we don't run into each other again. -

Melti wanted to say something, but a menacing look from Naofumi stopped her. She silently walked to the door and before she left she addressed the rest of her acquaintances.

- If any of you need help, give me a sign, I'll do what I can. -

After saying that, she left. Andrew shook his head and wanted to tell Naofumi that he was wrong, but Erhart beat him to it. He came out from behind his desk and began to speak.

- You shouldn't have done that to her, she obviously meant well for you. If you get the chance, apologise to her and better listen properly. -

Naofumi only gave him a slight look of slight irritation before he began to reply.

- I won't believe a single word she says or any of them say. I'm already reaping the rewards of their actions. -

Then he too went to the door, at the same second he was called by Raftalia, who had been silent all this time and restrained herself from slapping Naofumi on the face with the palm of her hand for such behaviour.

- Where are you going Mr Naofumi? -

Naofumi looked at her and answered without thinking about his tone or words.

- 'None of your business Raftalia, I want to be alone. Without your annoying tutelage. -

He left with a slam of the door and Raftalia could hardly hold back her tears. Seeing this, Firo also got sad and hugged Raftalia. Andrew did the same and seeing the tears in the corners of Raftalia's eyes, wiped them away and with a small smile began to speak.

- Don't cry sis, everything will be alright. He will calm down, we both know that. But for now, we'd better go for a walk. Erhart, will you look after Firo? -

Erhart in turn smiled slightly and then began to answer.

- Of course, Andrei, go for a walk, divorce, and I'll stay with the little one. What do you think, Firo, shall we make something? -

She immediately ran to him and they went to the forge. And Andrei and Raftalia took the boxes and went out into the street and went along the road known to Andrei.

On the way Raftalia began to smile again, Andrew noticed it and was pleased, also decided not to mention Naofumi and changed the subject.

- Raftalia, soon we will come to the very place where I go to my girlfriend, you just don't get scared, the women there have a very strange temperament, but they are funny, although I crossed paths with all of them only once. -

Raftalia nodded, but then a little embarrassed she started to answer.

- Brother Andrew, why don't I stay outside and wait for you there? In case I disturb you somehow. -

Andrei laughed a little in response and began to answer in the same way.

- Don't worry Raftalia, I think you can make friends with Lizi, in addition sometimes you need to rest somewhere. Even if it's not the right place for girls, but as long as I'm around, you have nothing to fear. -

Raftalia thought a little and agreed, and then started to walk in line with Andrew. So they reached the bar Temptress and went inside. Everything was almost as usual, but there were no visitors who sometimes glimpsed in the bar part of the building. But there were all the girls, including Lizi and Miss Sonya, as well as Ali who often talks playfully with Andrei.

They all immediately noticed the entrants and Lizi with undisguised joy approached Andrew with a quick step. He put the boxes down and they immediately hugged each other, followed by a kiss. After that Lizy looked into Andrew's eyes once more and began to speak.

- How much I missed you Andrei, I was so worried about you. -

Andrew in turn gently stroked her soft cheek, then stroked her wheat-coloured hair and looking into her eyes began to answer.

- I have missed you too my love, also now you may not worry so much about me. I'll be with you more this time. -

Lisey hugged him again, but then she turned her gaze to Raftalia who was watching slightly embarrassed. She wanted to ask her who she was, but at that moment Miss Sonia came up to them. As always dressed in translucent clothes made of very thin fabrics. She smiled and walked over to Andrew with a slight hug and then began to speak.

- Hello Andrei, I see you didn't come to us alone this time. You also brought some boxes, presumably with something valuable. But now I'd like to know the name of your companion. -

Andrei immediately noticed the attentive glances of the other girls and even Lizi. Slightly smiling Andrei carefully brought Raftalia a little closer and began to speak.

- This is my sister, Raftalia, I told you about her. I hope no one minds that she came with me. -

Miss Sonia did not remove her smile and looking at Raftalia began to answer.

- Don't worry, we are happy to see not only you, but also those who are dear to you. I hope the young girl will tell us about your adventures. -

Immediately after that Lisi came closer to Raftalia and took her hands and began to speak with a smile on her face.

- I'm so glad to see you at last Raftalia, Andrew is very dear to you and your comrades. -

Raftalia started to feel embarrassed from all this attention and her tail started to wag and her raccoon ears started to press against her hair. But in spite of that she began to answer.

- I'm glad to meet you too, it was very interesting to see who Andrew opened his heart to. I hope we can be friends. -

In response to this Lisi immediately hugged Raftalia and began to answer.

- We're already friends, come on, I'll introduce you to the others. -

After that she led her to the other girls and Raftalia began to chat with them quite calmly and without embarrassment. Andrew sat down beside them and Miss Sonia addressed him.

- You have a very beautiful sister Andrei, probably many men see something more in her. -

Andrei shrugged his shoulders and then began to answer.

- That's partly true, but she already has someone she's attracted to, except that he hurt her a little bit a while ago. That's why I decided to take her with me this time. -

Miss Sleepyhead clucked her tongue and started talking.

- Oh, how stupid men can be. But it's okay, if you don't mind, we'll try to help her and show her how to respond to rudeness. -

Andrew thought a little and agreed, Miss Sonya immediately smiled and then went to Raftalia. Lizi who was talking to her at that moment hugged her again and came to Andrei, then quietly began to speak.

- Let's go and get some privacy, I want to know what your adventures were like. -

Andrew gently took her hand and began to answer.

- Of course Lizi, I'll tell you everything that happened to us. -

So they went to Lizi's private room on the first floor and as soon as the door closed, Andrei and Lizi's lips immediately connected. As soon as the kiss stopped Lizi hugged him tightly and barely holding back her tears, began to speak.

- I was very worried about you, I thought you wouldn't come back. Every day I thought you weren't coming back, like something really bad had happened to you. -

Andrew immediately wiped her tears that began to flow from her eyes, and then began to speak.

- I'm sorry, I'm sorry Lizi, it's my fault that you were worried. I'll try never to put you through that kind of worry again. You know, you're beautiful. -

Lizzie sniffed her nose a little and began to respond by stroking Andrew's cheek.

- To hear those words I had to cry in front of you. But let's get to why we came here in the first place. -

Immediately after that she kissed Andrei passionately on the lips and began to unbutton his sleeveless leather jacket and white shirt, which became rather grey. Andrei also unbuttoned her dress and dark bra.

When they were finished, Lisey saw the new scars on Andrei's body. She gently ran her palm over the scar on his rib cage under the stone and asked.

- How did this happen? -

Andrew placed his hands lightly on her waist and began to answer.

- I'll tell you everything that happened, but right now I want to distract myself from everything around me, from everything but you. -

Now Andrew kissed her on the lips and moved to the bed, lying on it, they began to enjoy each other.
