There were dozens of people gathered in the steel shop, both the teenage children and the adults they kept asking for Reapers
“Uncle raise me to be your student” Say son
“Did you really meet Reapers in person?” ask a teenage boy
“How did you meet with Reapers?” ask the girls
“Please don't shut up, tell me how you met Reapers” grumbled young lady
“What is Reapers headquarters?” ask the knight
Gordon remembered what En said
“Just tell them that you were invited to do a cooperation contract”
“I don't know anything about Reapers they just invited me to do a contract of cooperation no more than that. And in the near future I need people to help me produce sugar, so I will open a job vacancy”, Gordon explained
“Asik, I want to list”
“I also mau”
“What women can list”
(Bla blah blah)
“They went where the hell, whereas today's the best day” grumbled Gordon inwardly looking for the whereabouts of Elly and the others

“Quick” said Elly excited, she ran out of the house this time she used a pink dress that gave Gordon was very suitable for her skin
“Patience, and stop running around you in a dress could have you fall” yelled ken from inside the house
“Since when did His Majesty worry about Elly? He looks like a father who is worried for his daughter” said En wondering in his heart
“What do you see” asked Kei annoyed to notice En smiling from earlier
“No sir forgive me” said En apologized
“I will lock the door please come out first mr” added En while locking the door

“Welcome” said Gordon lethargic
“Eh.. Gosh welcome how are you?” gordon said to Elly while hugging her
“Uncle Gordon reminds me of my father” muttered Elly
“Sorry if you make you remember a sad thing you can think of me as your father” Gordon said excitedly
“Thank you” said Elly while hugging tightly
“Gosh... My beloved son is very cute with this outfit” Gordon added.
“Who are they uncle?” ask Flen the teen Gordon recruited
“They-”
“Halo introduce me his daughter, who are you?” ask Elly who cut the conversation
Gordon is quite moved by the words of Elly who thinks of him as a father
“I'm a worker here introduce my name Flen” reply Flen
“Newly this time I saw your face, where have you been all this time?” ask Flen suspiciously
“Oh... That's because I have a job outside my territory I just returned” Elly said while smiling
“So apparently, greetings know brother” said Flen while shaking Elly's hand
“Greetings” reply Elly while smiling
“Omong-by the way why do you wear a head covering?” ask Flen for a modified Elly dress with a cape (modern day Elly dresses like a hodie)
“That's because of the remaining ear defects you don't care tau” said Kei annoyed
“Ma-I'm sorry I've asked you something unquestionable” said Flen regretting his actions
“Ah... No problem thank you next you need to keep my secret yah” said Elly while patting Flen's shoulder with a smile
“I have to go back immediately, thanks miss” Flen running away from Elly because of the cold gaze from Kei
“So far someone has ordered a tool totaling 50 seeds” said Gordon
“You don't have to make it” reply Kei
“Why? Isn't that a good thing” asked Gordon in astonishment
“Truely said they” ucapp Elly who arrived to speak
“This is like a secret recipe of course you do not want them to know, this way we can sell sugar at a rather expensive price. First set the price for the middle people we only need to give a little price different from the nobility we need to sell a bit expensive than the usual price but with the best quality” said Elly explained
“Alik” says Gordon excited

“Your Majesty is again circulating the news about Reapers, this time they helped the production of sugar in the Baron Matteo” region, said Vin aide to the emperor
“So apparently let” reply the Emperor who was checking the documents on his desk
“Your Majesty we can not keep quiet, what if the confidence of the imperial people falls in their hands, it could be that it will shake your throne Your Majesty” said Vin worried
“You seem to know them are you related to Reapers?” ask Vin who is getting suspicious
Aldric stopped writing
“How dare you speak like that, it seems you need another etiquette class by madam Garnet”
Instantly Vin goosebumps considering his childhood which was closely watched by Madam Garnet
“It has not been a long time since he left the capital, do I need to send him a letter back to the capital?” aldric asked with a faint smile he began to prepare a piece of mail
“Ti-Not bother hahaha, give me His Eminence” reply Vin with a wry smile while grabbing the pen that Aldric held
“Alright if so, I think you're starting to miss him” Aldric said

“During your absence something happens. bla bla”.
“What happened Reapers helped sugar production in my region?” the Baron was surprised
“True tuan” reply aide Baron
“Discover the newspaper I want to see what it is” said Baron Matteo who was getting upset
(Not only did they save the feed crisis in Marquess Reinhart's territory, Reapers also helped the Barons in sugar production, they were truly angels)
“What the heck is this when I just came back and suddenly get news like this. It's really annoying to tell-ah no I'm going there directly” said Baron Matteo

“Hey... You two food is ready let's eat together, uh.. what-” said Elly who ran into the room
“Sorry for interrupting your time, I was wrong for not knocking on the door first.” Elly said as she ran away from the two of them.
