After buying clothes and bedding at the market, the demihuman slaves hugged the things in their hands tightly.

Just this one action made them vaguely feel that Reiner might not be as bad as Martina said.

After buying clothes, Reiner took them to rent a house.

Now he has more and more beast-eared girls under his command, and there are ten of them in total including himself, and that small house can accommodate ten people at most. After all, it is not very convenient to have too many people. He can't let all ten beast-eared girls sleep on the floor in the living room.

"Are there any empty houses near the east side of the city? As far as I know, there shouldn't be any. But there are quite a few empty houses in the west side of the city. Would you like to consider them?" The tavern owner wiped the wooden table in front of him with a rag.

"Forget it then." The west side of the city was too far from where he lived and was completely out of his consideration.

On second thought, he didn't know how long he would stay in Melode.

Maybe he’ll go back to Cannon after a while.

Although it is relatively backward, there may be more opportunities there than in Melody, and it is a good place for development.

Reiner sighed and then thought carefully.

The house he lived in was in the eastern corner of the city. The houses in that area were not very densely populated, and there was an open space of nearly ten meters long and wide, covered with weeds, between the backyard and the corner of the wall.

As long as Reiner wanted, Kakao could use rock magic to build a staff dormitory for them to live in.

However, almost every inch of land in the city belonged to the lord. These local rulers attached great importance to land ownership, and building houses without permission could easily be regarded as a provocation.

I need to ask Dimas.

"Junis, take her home first. I'll sign the contract and go find Dimas."

"Then come back early."

Nora and Martina also want to go with Reiner.

"I'll give you a task. Help me keep an eye on these slaves, especially the white fox. You must keep a close eye on him."

Nora nodded and went back to Junice, her eyes fixed on Paige.

The cat and the fox just stared at each other.

Martina pursed her lips slightly and said angrily, "If you want to get rid of us, are you planning to go out and find another woman?"

Reiner pulled Aliana over and said, "If I really go out to find a woman, I can't bring a burden with me, right?"

The elf didn't understand what the two were talking about, and she scratched her head in confusion.

Martina narrowed her eyes, thought for a moment, and nodded: "I reluctantly believe you. Come back soon and don't let me miss you."

Reiner said goodbye to them and walked out of the tavern.

About ten minutes later, Reiner arrived at the city gate.

Reiner spotted Dimas from a distance.

He was wearing a full set of plate armor and was standing on the city wall, looking into the distance.

Judging from his back, he seemed to have become stronger after not seeing him for a month.

"Lord Dimas!"

Hearing Reiner's voice, he looked back.

The two looked at each other.

I wanted to exchange a few pleasantries first, but this time, Dimas, who was not good at speaking, spoke first: "Reiner, I heard you were back. I was just about to go look for you."

There was a hint of joy in his tone.

Dimas noticed the blue-haired potato next to him. "Who is this?"

Reiner replied, "There is a nameless large forest to the north of the Morning Forest. She is an elf who lives there."

"Elf?" Dimas walked down the stone steps from the city wall and stood before Aliana, examining her carefully. "This is the first time I've seen one in person. Aside from the color of their hair, they look just like humans."

"There's really no difference."
