Chapter 24 - Aftermath 5

"Miss Monica I advise you to halt your advances, the same goes for you miss Nero, and for the others else, it seems to me that young master here isn't good when it comes to women." Sebastian said in a loud voice so that everyone could hear.

"Girls calm yourselves, give young hero Kanzen here some space. You might traumatize him with your aggressive approach." A middle aged lady steps in, supporting Sebastian in order to calm the crowd.

Sebastian looked at the middle age gorgeous blue-haired women, he gave her a grateful look.

Sebastian and the blue-haired woman nodded at the same time, understanding each other's line of thought.

Monica and Nero being reprimanded immediately understood the situation, and begrudgingly left Kanzen to Sebastian before taking a seat a few meters from Kanzen.

Nero who just sat down on a wooden chair ears perk, she started seriously at hiding Kanzen behind Sebastian, realization apparent in her face.

"Sebastian-san didn't you just call young hero Kanzen here young master, why is that?" Nero asked, trying to confirm her suspicion.

The others hearing the sudden unexpected question listen looked at the two, their ears perking up awaiting Sebastian's reply.

Seeing that there's no hiding it, Sebastian looked at his master trying to ask for a confirmation.

Kanzen knowing what in Sebastian's mind just nodded, a resolute look on his face.

Sebastian smiled back to Nero as his gaze scanned everyone present in the scene before replying. "Young master Kanzen here accepted me as his personal servant, that's the reason I called young master with such honorific." He said in a firm and proud tone.

Hearing this, everyone immediately understood the gest of the situation, they looked at each other, differing thoughts running through their minds.

"EHHH! That's unfair, I also wanted to be young hero Kanzen's servant. Young hero Kanzen, no! Young master Kanzen, please accept me as your servant as well, I promise that I won't sneak behind you again anymore." Nero asked in a pleading tone that surprised Kanzen and everyone.

She would rather not be left behind.

She had finally found her destined young groom, how can she let such an opportunity to get close to him just passed bye.

Nero is a high noble birth from the far east, but she didn't really care about her title or family, so she left her hometown to avoid the political struggle and to farther hone her skills and mastery over the art of sword.

She witnessed Kanzen's simple sword strike that easily destroyed the prison cell bars and chains binding them, that action left a deep impression on her.

The simple, yet elegant sword strike overwhelmed her completely.

She couldn't fathom how he achieved such mastery over the sword in such a young age.

She desired to reach the same degree of mastery, this second of the reasons behind her deep infatuation towards Kanzen.

As for the foremost reason for her infatuation with him is because of his looks, appearance, innocence, and naivety.

She's your stereotypical incurable shotacon that loves young boys to the bone.

Kanzen seems to always act serious, domineering, cold, nonchalant and sagely, this behavior of his just flared up her desire to make him her.

She badly wanted to groom him.

The moment this thought came to her mind, Kanzen hiding behind Sebastian felt a cold shiver.

He instinctively stared at the gorgeous Renard looking at him with a smile on her face that's clearly isn't one.

'This one is very dangerous, I need to distance myself from her, or I might be devoured.'

Kanzen instinctively tightened his grip on Sebastian's cloth as every hair in his body stood up to no end.

"I need to think carefully about it before deciding." He replied to Nero in a meek tone of voice, clearly afraid of her.

'His instinct is really top-notch, as expected of someone who had face and destroyed an entire empire of powerful monsters.'

Nero thought wearily, smiling at the hiding young Kanzen behind Sebastian.

Monica not wanting to be left behind raises her hand trying to garner attention.

"I also hope to follow young hero Kanzen, I might not be a fighter, I am also inexperienced, but I know how to clean and cook." Monica proclaimed.

"Hahaha~ brat, are you offering to be a servant or a wife?" An elderly man on the side said, jovially laughing at Monica's statement.

Starting from the old man, everyone began laughing jovially, the somewhat awkward atmosphere after Sebastian's proclamation diminished, replaced by loud clamors of laughter.

*Grumble* *Grumble* *Grumble*

Out of nowhere, strange noises sounded.

Everyone promptly looked at each other after realizing why the sound meant, the girls in the group were even covering their faces, unable to face the person next to them.

Not wanting to waste the opportunity, Kanzen promptly stood up behind Sebastian.

"I will take my leave to go and cook."

He said, surprising everyone.

"Eh, you're the one cooking, young hero, don't bother let us cook for everyone." An elderly woman said.

"I may look like this, but I can confidently proclaim that I am one of the best and the best living cooks in the entire mortal world." Kanzen proudly proclaimed.

He may have just reached the realm of a master cook, but compared to several villagers and common people, he can confidently proclaim that none of them is better than him in terms of cooking.

After Kanzen's proud proclamation, he left the group as headed straight inside the mansion, preparing a meal for everyone.

The people who have been left behind look at each other, a weary and downcast smile on each other's faces.

"…Isn't young hero Kanzen too amazing he ain't just good at fighting, he is also very good at cooking…" A young elven beauty named Bianca said.

"…Um, your right, I never one's tasted something this good, even back at the most luxurious restaurants in the capital." Another elven beauty named Hilda replied.

Bianca and Hilda were both elves that have been captured by the goblins, they were just about to be the next prey of the Goblin King if it wasn't for Kanzen's timely assault in the goblin empire that forced the goblin king to confront him leaving the two beauties behind.

Kanzen didn't find them in the prison cells, they were rescued from the goblin kings bed chamber.

Before when Kanzen proclaimed that he is one of the best cooks in the world, everyone were in doubt but after tasting a bit of his personally prepared meals, they couldn't get over it.

Both men and women began ravaging the meals he had prepared, this combined with their long imprisonment having nothing but dried dirty bread and unclean water as their sustenance.

Thankfully, the meal Kanzen prepared could feed a thousand people, he used telekinesis and parallel thought in overdrive as he did a meal for a thousand people.

He used spirit herbs, magic herbs, and heavenly fruits in the salad.

He also used holy water and profound heavenly water and heavenly fruits for the drinks.

Lastly for the main dishes he purchased a heavenly bull meat, true dragon meant, luminance spirit deer and phoenix egg.

He didn't make the spices and just purchased some in the infinite shop.

Everything costs about 2,000,000+Credits.

However, he really didn't mind the extravagant cost.

He wanted the troublesome group to recover quickly, they reminded him of his previous self before Starlight appeared before him pulling him out from the darkness.
