The three of them chatted as they walked along the street.
After listening to Albedo's explanation, Draco understood.
When they went to the slave town in the Eastern Empire before, the injured girl Sebas rescued at the end was named Tuare, if he remembered correctly.
At that time, Tuare was brought back to the city, while Sebas and Solution took the remaining slaves to Milim's territory.
Logically speaking, the two shouldn't have had any further interaction.
For some reason, perhaps due to certain work duties, Sebas frequently visited the city.
Fate is something no one can explain.
It seemed the two had met again.
Although Sebas appeared to be a mature gentleman, his actual age made him the youngest NPC in Nazarick.
It was just that his appearance was set to be elderly.
The budding love of a young man... Good grief... In Albedo's words, the encounter between Sebas and the girl named Tuare was a romantic and dramatic meeting.
After hearing this, Draco shook his head.
"Forget it, let's not interfere too much in their business."
"Eh?! Well, okay..."
Shalltear puffed her cheeks, feeling it was a bit of a pity.
"Let's go, today is our rare date time."
"A date~!"
Albedo excitedly fluttered the black wings behind her and took Draco's hand. "Master, where shall we go now?"
Shalltear, not to be outdone, took Draco's other hand.
"Let's wander around first. There are many new delicacies I haven't tried yet."
The three strolled along the bustling main street. The constant noise along the way made Draco feel as if he had returned to the real world.
Looking at Shalltear and Albedo beside him, Draco suddenly felt a bit emotional.
Two years ago, he was just a down-and-out young man who was somewhat handsome.
In the blink of an eye, he already possessed such an enviable life.
It really felt like a dream.
Perhaps because of his changing mood, the expression on Draco's face appeared quite complex.
Shalltear glanced at him and then asked with a smile, "Master, why do you look a bit melancholy?"
"Ah? Oh, it's nothing."
Draco smiled and stroked her soft long hair. "I just feel that this kind of peaceful life is quite nice."
"A peaceful life... huh."
Looking up at the brilliant river of stars, a magnificent firework bloomed in the mid-air.
"What beautiful fireworks."
Draco reached out, put his arms around the waists of the two women, and pulled them into his embrace.
Albedo and Shalltear leaned gently against Draco's chest, pressing close to each other, enjoying this moment of peace and tranquility... Unlike the lively atmosphere of Nazarick, Clayman's room was pitch black, as if the electricity bill hadn't been paid.
If it weren't for the lightning outside the window occasionally lighting up the room, the entire space would have fallen into absolute darkness.
Standing by the window, Clayman waited quietly with a grim face.
"Yahoo, Clayman, we're back."
The figures of Tia and Footman suddenly appeared from the darkness.
Seeing the two return, Clayman's expression softened considerably.
"How is it? Did you investigate anything?"
"Hohoho, fortunately Frey was out, the plan went even more smoothly than imagined."
Footman chuckled and took out a crystal ball. "Here, this is the clue we found."
"Hey, hey, Clayman, we found the reason why the Winged Race is in such a panic."
"That Storm Great Tempest is about to be resurrected!"
BOOM!
A bolt of lightning suddenly split the sky.
Clayman's eyes instantly narrowed, and then a strange curve traced his lips.
"I see..."
"Tia, Footman, I have a new task I need to entrust to you."
"Hehe, what is it? The Storm Great Tempest?"
Tia rubbed her hands excitedly, looking like she couldn't wait.
Clayman nodded with a smile. "First, go find the Sealed Cave and see if you can try to tame this monster."
"Leave it to us, Clayman!"
Footman also burst into laughter. "Hohoho, wait for our good news. Tia, let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Footman grabbed the enthusiastic little girl and disappeared into the darkness.
"The Storm Great Tempest..."
"Just how strong can that power, which can rival a Demon Lord, be? It's truly something to look forward to..."
"I hope you don't disappoint me."
A cold smile played on Clayman's lips... In the Duchy of Nazarick, Draco led the two women as they wandered and stopped, eventually reaching the central square.
A large number of drunks were gathered under the giant Divine Dragon statue, all drawn by the mountain of alcohol placed there.
As soon as Draco arrived, he saw Carrion having a drinking contest with Cocytus.
It seemed that since their last battle didn't result in a clear winner, the two were planning to settle things today through their drinking capacity.
"Drink!"
Cocytus roared with his coarse and heroic voice, raising his cup and pouring it down his throat.
Beside him, Carrion showed no fear, raising his cup and draining it in one go.
Gulp, gulp!
"It seems they're getting along quite well."
Draco murmured with some surprise. He didn't disturb them and went directly to King Gazel's table nearby.
Hakurou was also there. King Gazel was delighted to see his mentor.
Hundreds of years ago, when King Gazel was still a young boy, he accidentally got lost in the forest and happened to meet the sword demon, Hakurou.
Under Hakurou's guidance, he eventually became the Sword Saint Gazel he was today.
"Lord sword demon, I didn't expect to see you here. This is wonderful!"
Hakurou said with a smile, "The brat who got lost in the forest back then is completely different now."
"No, I should call you Your Majesty the Dwarf King now. It's truly wonderful that you've grown into a swordsman even more outstanding than I am."
Gazel rubbed his head with a bit of bashfulness. "To hear such praise from Lord sword demon is truly an honor."
"Oh, you guys seem to be having a happy chat."
Draco came over and patted Gazel's shoulder.
"Lord Draco!"
Hakurou was originally prepared to stand up, but Draco stopped him.
"No need for formalities. Today there is no distinction between ruler and subject, just be casual," Draco said with a wave of his hand.
"By the way, Hakurou, let me introduce someone to you."
As he spoke, Draco went over to Rimuru, who was not far away discussing becoming an adventurer with Fiz, and scooped him up.
"Third brother, I've found a master for you. And by the way, you've gained a senior fellow disciple."
