The Darkness Metal Manipulation
Chapter 62's

In one room of the mansion, Zyden was muttering furiously about the carelessness and stupidity that resulted from his lies to the hero Asren.

While angry in his mutterings, Zyden saw three people who had just walked out of the bathroom door.

Two girls of high school age, and a boy who wears a towel to cover his body. They stood at the door looking at Zyden.

The boy and one of the girls looked at Zyden with a dreamy expression and were astonished at what had happened to Zyden.

While the other girls only looked at Zyden with an expression of not knowing anything.

They were Lilith, Erika and Eciela who had just bathed the boy. To Lilith and Erika, Zyden was currently in a state of annoyance, anger and was very unpleasant to talk to.

They saw it like that because the fireflies around Zyden did not look as good and glittery as before.

While Eciela who could not see the fireflies, did not know anything about Zyden's current condition.

Seeing the three people standing at the door looking at him, Zyden immediately changed positions and acted like nothing had happened.

"Oh... You guys done?" Said Zyden casually from behind his mask.

Hearing that, Lilith immediately smiled and got excited again. "Yes, Lilith is done. Big brother, let's play..." The boy ran happily.

"Eits... Wait up! You can't hug her anymore." Eciela raised and held Lilith tightly.

"Aahs... Why can't Lilith play with a star!" Lilith thrashed and tried to break away.

"Of course you can't...! You're not wearing a suit yet, and he hasn't changed. If you hold her, you'll get wet and have to shower again." Eciela said restraining the boy's movements.

"don't want... Lilith wants to play now." Lilith cried constantly.

"Yes yes... You can play, but after he changes his clothes." Eciela said firmly. "Hey you! Take a shower and change your clothes. I don't want to keep going like this." Go to Zyden and walk to bed.

Zyden did not answer him, then immediately went to take a bath as Eciela had said. Erika who was in front of the door also went aside to give way.

"Had something happened? And why is Asren not here." Ask Erika.

"Nothing happened. And the hero just left." Answer Zyden flat and go into the bathroom.

Erika who felt that Zyden's tone of answer was different, began to be moody and rather sad to hear him. Erika also walked to Lilith and Eciela while pondering about the purpose and mission given by her father before.

"Oh yes Erika? Can you call me..." Zyden said out the door asking Erika. The summoned Erika turned around and wondered about what Zyden was going to say.

'e.... What's his name?' Zyden thought... Aye!' he continued to remember something.

"Can you get Liya here? I want him to make a drink out of the fruit you gave me this morning." Zyden said casually.

"Mi, Drink? A... Can I make it for you?" Erika replied somewhat doubtfully.

"You can make it? Good, then please help Erika." Zyden. "Do you have that fruit, Erika?" Further asked.

"I'm not holding it, but take it easy. Liya must have had a lot in her dimensional magic. After all it was one of the medicinal ingredients he used to use." Erika replied.

'he carried the fruit in his magic dimension? Then why did he bother to go somewhere last night to get the fruit?' zyden thought he was surprised by last night's weirdness.

'whatever. Had he not brought her I would have given her mine.' "Good indeed.... Oho! So, are you going to see Liya first?" Zyden asked.

"Yes, I want to see him so he can stay here too." Erika Sahut.

"Is that so? Then please yes..." Smooth Zyden. "Ah... Yeah Erika?" Further.

"Yes?" Answer Erika.

"If you can, give the fruit more often a little... Let it feel more. Or maybe ask Liya for her dose, I think she knows how much fruit to use for my drink." Zyden recommended the ingredients for his drink.

"...., okay. I'll ask Liya for advice later." Erika replied curiously at what Zyden had just said.

"Thank you." Exclaimed Zyden back to the bathroom and washed himself straight away.

"Yes.., Same." Erika said a little daydreaming for a while at her place, then went to where Lilith and Eciela were.

After arriving, Erika was immediately given a question by Eciela who had seen them chatting.

"What were you two talking about, Erika?" Said Eciela who was still holding Lilith in bed.

"Ehm?! Ah... It's nothing, he just wants to make a drink." Erika answered without burden.

"created drink? How dare he order his fiancee to make a drink. What are you a waitress?" Excitement Eciela high.

"It's okay Ecil, this is also my own wish. Zyden had asked Liya to make it, but because I wanted to make something. Then let me make it!" Erika.

"Liya? Who is Liya?" Ask Eciela curious.

"A... I haven't introduced her yet, have I? Well, how's this?" Erika. "Ecyl? Can you help me?" Further requesting.

"What kind of help?" Eciela.

"In our journey, there was one more person who came with us." Erika Exclamations. "He is Liya, he is a friend and a maid who has been looking after me. This morning, I ordered Liya to find a place to stay in this city."

"But I forgot that for a while I'm going to stay here. Hence, can you help me to ask Uncle Oliver for permission so that Liya can also stay here with me." Erika further explained.

"That's... I forgot, because Zyden asked me to stay here." Answer Erika lirih.

"Because of her? Since that guy doesn't even think of you as his fiancee, can you forget about your friend?" Excited Eciela who answered in silence.

"Erika let me give you some advice?" Eciela. "You better not be so dependent on him, I see that you are very attentive to him even though he is indifferent to you. Aren't you sick like that?" Further.

"Am I being too gentle with her?" Said Erika.

"Yes... You're too soft on her." Eciela.

"But Eciela! It doesn't seem like a problem." Erika smiled.

"No problem? Why, don't you feel hurt or anything." Ask Eciela.

"Yes, I don't have a problem. I'll try to be closer to her, better understand her, and more reliable for her." Erika.

"After all, this is also my father's duty and also my desire to make him accept everything." Follow Erika with the most sincere tone.

"Huh...? I don't understand the thought of a man in love." Eciela exclaimed which made Erika stunned. "But Erika, as a fellow woman, I will support you. Hope your goal is achieved." Continues encouraging.

"Thank you, Ecil." Erika smiled.

"So? When's your friend coming here? It still rained outside." Ask Eciela.

"Oh, wait a minute." Erika said using her magic. 'Liya, can you hear me?' continued Erika using magic that can communicate between spirits that she already knows (Telepati spirit).

„Upload like that 😉.„

'Yes my queen.' Liya replied.

'have you found a place to live?' ask Erika.

'Had my Queen. I've bought one of the mansions in town.' Liya.

'then leave the mansion because we'll be staying at the heroes' place for a while. Come here, I also need your help as soon as possible!' Erika gave the order.

'well Queen. I'll be there now Liya replied.

'and also, from now on don't call me queen. Just call me lady or something, you understand?' Erika.

'well miss, I'll be there now.'

Not long after they both had their eyes. Liya suddenly appeared before two people who were silent and a boy who was being detained.

"Miss Erika? What can I do for you?" Liya exclaimed slightly bowing which made Eciela and Lilith startled.

"Liya? Ah... First, introduce this Eciela. He is one of the heroes of this country. While the child she was hugging was Lilith, she was the daughter of the noble who owned this mansion." Erika pointed at the two of them.

"It's nice to meet you, Miss Eciela! Miss Lilith!" Liya said politely and kindly. "Thank you for taking care of my lady for a while." Further.

"I... Yes, it's nice to meet you." Eciela.

"Woe... Brother is also similar to Erika's sister. So pretty..." Lilith stopped rebelling.

"Thank you lady for your compliment." Liya. "Then Miss Erika? What can I do for you?" Further.

"Look Liya? I need you to help me make a Leanull for Zyden. Did you bring the fruit?" Erika Exclamations.

"Yes, lady, I brought her. I've also prepared the drink beforehand just in case you want it." Answer Erika.

"You've made it?" Erika Sahut.

"Yes miss. Do you want to use her or do you want to make her yourself?" Said Liya as if she knew about it.

"Ep... I want to make it myself. Can you help me?" Erika Exclamations.

"Of course, miss, I'm always there for you." Liya replied as a reliable maid.

"Then let's make it." Erika.

"Yes miss. I've prepared all the ingredients, only. We need a kitchen to make it." Liya said to find a solution.

"We'll use the kitchen here. An ecil? Can you help me borrow the kitchen too? If you want, you can also help me make it." Erika said to Eciela who had been silent in confusion.

"Erika's? What kind of drink are you going to make from that?" Ask Eciela.

"Of course, the dwarves' high levels of alcohol."
