Chapter 70 70 – A Name for the Dog
“Now, your name is Mona.” Elise, who was sitting leaning against the pillar, stroked the dog.
I agreed. “Good names.”
“So, can I start sending candidates to you?” Osiris asked. “And remember, according to our agreement. After telling you about Elise’s little brother, I won’t choose a candidate for you. You will choose it yourself from the ones I randomly give you.”
“You don’t have to remind me.” I’m a little annoyed with the words earth’s god of death.
“Sir Raymund!!!” Suddenly Anja jumped out of the fog. “Can I still see Elise’s mission?”
I smiled at that woman who I had deliberately summoned. Coincidentally, she is not busy anymore. “Unfortunately, her mission just finished. However, maybe you can see her new mission after this.”
“Then hurry up! I can’t wait….” Anja stopped her speech when she found Elise. The female warrior just looked back at the brown-skinned woman. “Well, we have to wait until you get better, Elise.”
“So, we can start the candidate selection, right?” Osiris asked again.
“Ah, she’s not a dangerous person, Mona.” Elise tried to calm her dog, who was already growling, and glared at Anja..
The dog barked fiercely, ignoring her master’s words, then ran to Anja. The servant of the merchant god flinched and fled after throwing away her oversized bag.
“Mona, don’t attack her! Ouch!” Elise won in pain, struggling to stand up.
I smirked at the scene. Anja ran as hard as she could with a frightened face while Mona chased that woman like she was hunting for prey.
Osiris sighed. “Looks like we have to delay the candidate selection. Or else the candidate will be chased by dogs too.”
The workers who took care of Elise’s shrine came from the fog carrying furniture and immediately dispersed when they saw the giant dog. Things get very chaotic, and Anja finally breaks free while Mona is chasing the workers. Elise tried to stop her pet but to no avail.
“Are you selling a leash?” I asked the brown-skinned woman who was catching her breath while bending over.
She took her menu book from her bag and handed it to me. After I made my choice, Anja brought me one of the things I bought, a thick leather necklace with a chain.
“Elise!” I called my servant and threw the leash. “Use this! Tie her to one of the pillars in the building.”
Elise frantically caught the object, then ambushed her dog.
While Elise was wrestling with her pet, I received a torch made of metal from Anja.
“What did you buy this for, sir?” The servant of the merchant god raised an eyebrow.
“You will see…. Oh, sorry. But this time, I can’t pay my debt yet.”
“Whaaat???” Anja looks so shocked, and I just grin at her.
Finally, Elise managed to put the leash on Mona’s neck. Miraculously, the big dog calmed down, allowing the female warrior to tie it to one of the pillars in the shrine.
“So, can we start the candidate selection?” Osiris yawned.
“Just a minute, bro.” I approached Elise while carrying the torch. “Sorry, but Mona did have to be tied up while she was here.”
“Is it a magical beast from the earth?” Anja, who was following me, asked. “If so, he will be hostile to anyone in this realm. The aura they give off is very foreign and leaves this dog confused. I don’t know why he can be calm around you, Elise.”
I pressed a button on the torch, causing the tip to ignite. Elise cringed when she saw that.
“I gave you an assignment,” I explained while holding out the torch. “If you have free time, look at this fire. This is so that you can overcome your fear.”
Gulped, Elise accepted the flame torch with trembling hands.
I looked at Elise’s almost finished shrine. The speed of Erbau’s workers is extraordinary. In a short time, this Roman-style temple full of pillars was finished. This building becomes a little color in my boring place with a mix of dark red and gray.
“Hey, you guys.” I turned to the workers who were actually idle while looking at Mona. The furniture they brought was scattered. “You guys brought the bed, right? Better put it in the room now so my servant can rest. Then, I ask that you can attach this torch to the room as well.”
“All right, sir!” They all answered and started work again.
“Oh, thank you,” Elise said as one of the workers asked for the torch in her hand.
“So.” Osiris took a deep breath. “Can we start this candidate selection? I no longer….”
“Who is that voice actually?” Anja asked while looking around.
“He is Osiris, the god of death from the earth.” I walked towards the pond again.
Anja hastily covered her ears while following me. “I didn’t hear that!”
“I see. You’re still afraid that you’ll get into trouble after hearing such information, aren’t you?” I chuckled.
“By the way, magical beasts from the mortal world can change into human form if they’ve been here for a long time, you know!” Anja changed the subject.
“Huh?” I looked at Mona, who was now asleep. “I see.”
Would my imagination come true? If so, that will be very interesting.
“Raymund.” Osiris was getting less and less excited. “Please, I want this to be over quickly.”
“Oh, sorry. Go on, bro.”
“Finally, after giving the candidate to you, I can take care of other matters.”
I frowned. “You said as if I would immediately accept whoever the candidate you gave me.”
“Huh?”
“I never said that, Osiris. I just promised not to ask you to find a suitable candidate for me.”
Osiris was silent for a few seconds. “Are you still looking for attractive female candidates?”
“Well, of course.” I shrugged. “If my heroines are attractive, I’ll be very excited to keep an eye on them.”
The god of death from the earth was silent again for a while. “You’re kidding, right? That could take a very long time!”
“Yes.” I sat on the floor. “No matter how many candidates you give me, I don’t mind. I have plenty of time.”
I’m sure Osiris won’t talk carelessly to Elise. He is the one who said that the success of my servants is also the interest of the earth.
“You’re a piece of shit, Raymund.” Osiris snorted. “Alright, I’ll pick a candidate for you!”
