Adopting Disaster

Chapter 119.1: (Part 1)



Only then did Dolores, who had been eating absentmindedly, remember who she was with.

"Eat. Just like that."

"I came dressed like a young lady, so I should eat like one......"

She started eating like a well-mannered lady belatedly, but that appearance seemed even cuter.

After filling her stomach to the fullest, they brought out tea as a post-meal drink.

Reed smelled a familiar scent from the tea.

"Excuse me, may I ask what kind of tea this is?"

"Are you talking about this? It\'s the trendy stone mountain tea these days."

"Is stone mountain tea in trend these days?"

"Yes. I heard high-ranking members of the Althea Church enjoy drinking it."

Perhaps the Twin Saintesses’ suggestion had been accepted, and many people had started to drink it.

Naturally, the trend spread among the nobles who liked it, and the commoners slowly began to follow the nobles\' taste.

"More than anything, it\'s said that if men and women drink it together, love will come true, so many people seek it."

"Love will come true?"

"I think they said that this stone mountain tea was made to find the person you love."

"......"

"......"

"Some high-ranking person went into the Kalton Mountains, defeated the evil monsters, and received this flower from the lake\'s spirit. So, it\'s said to be the tea that proves true love."

"I see."

"Oh dear, I\'m talking too much. Please enjoy it slowly."

The owner bowed and apologized.

Dolores and Reed\'s faces turned bright red.

It was because they knew who the high-ranking person and the woman he was trying to save were.

"It\'s quite romantic. Bards would love it."

"That\'s right."

"But is that true?"

"Isn\'t it more romantic not to know?"

"There\'s no need to know for sure."

Leaving the romantic as it is, is the most beautiful.

Dolores picked up her teacup and moistened her lips with the subtle fragrance that spread.

Reed watched her condition quietly.

He had checked several times, but there was still no reaction.

She was not a demon.

She was undoubtedly human.

"Have you made any plans for what to do after leaving the tower?"

In the cozy atmosphere, Reed asked the question Helios had been curious about.

Dolores nodded her head.

"Yes."

"What is it?"

"I\'m going to Escolleia to become a professor."

"A professor?"

Reed was surprised to hear the unexpected profession coming from her mouth.

"Being trapped made me think a lot. I\'ve been running so frantically, so I had to think a lot about who I am."

"So, you decided on being a professor?"

"Yes. I found it really fun to organize my thoughts in order to teach others."

She smiled beautifully.

"I mentioned it to my teacher once, and he liked the idea. He even told me to start teaching as a professor right away, but... I think it\'s better to start as a teaching assistant and learn diligently under other professors first."

A professor.

When he recalled her teaching Rosaria and Yuria, she seemed more suitable for that position than being a Tower Master.

"I\'ll continue teaching Rosaria and Yuria as I always have. The Sunday classes at the tower."

"Will you have time for that while being a teaching assistant?"

"If I don\'t have time, I\'ll make it. And they said I\'ll definitely have Sundays off."

"I thought they\'d use you like a slave, but your rights are protected."

"What\'s the point of being the favorite if I can\'t take advantage of it?"

Reed had been worried about what she would do after leaving her position as Tower Master.

He was worried about what would happen if she couldn\'t overcome the fact that she was a demon and left without a word, but hearing her answer like this made him feel relieved.

"The Tower Master of Timekeeper Tower seemed quite upset that you were quitting."

"I feel a bit sorry because the Chairman took good care of me......"

"No, that\'s the right thing to do. If you were still suffering in the Tower Master\'s position, I wouldn\'t have stayed still."

"......What would you have done?"

Her blue jewel-like eyes sparkled and shone.

She never let things go easily.

"I would have kidnapped and imprisoned you."

"What would you do after imprisoning me?"

"Feed you delicious food and stroke your head, what else?"

"Am I Rosaria?"

"Let\'s go with Rosaria’s Senior, Dolores."

At that remark, Dolores chuckled.

Reed decided to change the subject.

"How is your successor?"

"They\'re a good person. They were someone the previous tower master had an eye on before I came, so they\'ll undoubtedly do well."

"It\'s a problem that you\'re too strong right now."

He was worried that her strong support might overshadow others.

However, since it wasn\'t his business, he didn\'t interfere any further.

"If you\'re done with the tea, let\'s go. I still have a lot to see."

"Alright, let\'s go."

The two got up from their seats.

Their next destination was the market.

Dolores wanted to see the bustling market with lots of people.

They blended in with the crowd as a young lady and a sparrow, walking on the busy market floor.

Sneaking a glance at Dolores\'s face, it resembled someone.

A pure and curious young girl.

"What is this?"

"It\'s called beet. You\'ve probably eaten a lot of it, haven\'t you?"

"I\'m not sure. This is the first time I\'ve seen it. What about this?"

"That\'s a lemon."

"I know this. It\'s an apple."

The foolish girl who had only focused on magic and didn\'t know much about the world didn\'t know much about the items in the market.

Her naive innocence made the middle-aged merchants smile.

"Is this your first time going out with the young lady?"

"She doesn\'t know much about the world, so I came with her today."

"Coming to a market like this, where commoners visit, is very bold of her! Here, take one."

The middle-aged merchant handed Dolores a ripe apple.

"Oh, thank you."

Dolores smiled broadly and took the apple.

"Is it okay to accept this? They\'re selling things here."

"Think of it as a fee for admiring your beauty."

"Really? I\'m full, so I\'ll have to eat this later."

"Then, put it away."

Dolores slipped it into her clothes.

As a magician, she made good use of her pocket in the void.

Time passed, and the market became more crowded.

It became difficult to even walk side by side.

"Oops."

Even a genius magician wasn\'t strong enough to push through the crowd that poured in like a tidal wave.

Reed grabbed Dolores\'s hand.

"Shouldn\'t we not lose each other?"

"Yes."

Dolores obediently followed behind Reed.

They finally made it through the crowd of people coming in like a flood.

"Shall we finish exploring the market here?"

"Yes."

"Where was the next place?"

"Now it\'s my turn to guide you."

Dolores pointed her finger in the air.

Ice particles gathered and formed the shape of a broomstick.

"Can you sit on it?"

"Of course."

They had practiced several times, but it was still difficult to get used to.

Reed rode Dolores\'s broomstick and headed somewhere together.

The place she took him was familiar to him.

It was deep in the Kalton Mountains, which was once a territory of monsters.

"There is a really beautiful lake here. It\'s a place unknown to people and even to the orcs."
