Robots Drop Gold Like Small Monsters In A Game

The fragrant smell of coffee wafted over with the steaming mist.

Young Master Naiye took a sip, then slowly nodded, revealing a satisfied smile.

The boss of the Ruffian knights sitting opposite, and the pigtailed hot girl watched Young Master Naiye enjoy the coffee and, with hope, carefully took a sip.

The rich flavor filled their mouths; its bitterness without astringency and rounded taste invigorated the spirit.

Only the pigtail hot girl wasn’t used to coffee, so she didn’t enjoy it as much as Young Master Naiye.

But she admitted—the coffee was delicious.

Looking at the handsome and steady young master across from her, she felt truly happy today.

Young Master Naiye still owed the pigtail hot girl a date.

So he invited her out today; now they were sitting on a bench outside a café near Train Station No. 1, drinking coffee and nibbling snacks.

As for his knight, Dark Knight Weiluxika.

She had been training with Student Council President Meiyu these past few days, so she really hadn’t had time to protect Young Master Naiye.

On the streets one could clearly see students out shopping and playing.

Unlike during the war when no one was seen, now this scene finally had the youthful, lively academy atmosphere.

Now there were obviously few people near Train Station No. 1, since this place was considered closed.

The train was still broken, so few came here to hang out.

But that was better—it was quieter to stroll and date the pigtails hot girl.

“…………”

‘What should I do, how should I act? This is too sudden!

‘I should be proactive and bring up some topics!’

The pigtailed hot girl’s hands were hidden under the table, her two nail-polished fingers nervously fidgeting and crossing.

When Young Master Naiye suddenly asked her out, her mind froze for a moment.

After the heart-fluttering shopping and gift-buying, now it was coffee and rest time.

Though her facial expression didn’t change much and she kept smiling.

But deep down the pigtail hot girl actually wanted to find topics to deepen their bond.

“Ah, ah… right, Young Master Naiye, r-recently a very popular commission appeared on the ordinary knights’ bulletin—everyone is rushing to take it!”

“Oh, could it be that especially popular task of clearing out the hostile Federation’s robots?”

It seemed Young Master Naiye was interested, so she could continue well.

The pigtail hot girl straightened her posture and continued a bit happily.

“That’s right. With the war over, everyone thought there’d be little work, but the bulletin immediately updated with a commission anyone could take.

“Because during the war, those robots would be wiped out at once by the Four Great Knight Orders; now that the war’s over, there are actually more robots, but they’re too lazy to deal with them and so they commissioned us!

“And the reward for one robot is actually pretty good!”

As soon as she said that, the pigtail hot girl regretted it.

Why did she tell the young master of a noble family about rewards! He wouldn’t care about this money at all!

“Ah, well we already have a robot head here.”

“…?”

The pigtail hot girl hadn’t yet understood what that meant and froze for a moment, but immediately stood up alertly!

But she was still a bit slow—the bullet had already been fired.

Bang—!

Pop!

The bullet aimed at them, sparks flying upon firing, was immediately reflected back by Young Master Naiye’s shield!

And the returning bullet was even more forceful! It blew apart the core of the ambushing robot outright.

Then it fell to the ground like a falling apple.

“This……….”

The pigtail hot girl stared in surprise at Young Master Naiye’s shield, then at the fallen robot.

That Flame Lance Knight Manaen being able to pierce Naiye’s shield in a second was indeed a bit unexpected.

But when it came to dealing with these ordinary Caesar Federation robots, Young Master Naiye was truly an expert.

Young Master Naiye could handle them effortlessly without even moving.

At Naiye’s signal, the pigtail hot girl dragged the robot over beside them.

It was the most ordinary model robot, made purely of iron, only understanding simple commands.

Naiye checked its head and knew it had only two orders.

The first was to infiltrate and collect information.

The second was to cause destruction when possible.

Unfortunately, in front of the students of the Auriel Knight Academy they were just money-making tools.

Like in a game, monsters that drop money inside.

Their value might even be lower than that.

But after Young Master Naiye’s careful search, he discovered a deeper, ultimate task.

That was to find Naiye Lycoris.

It was a simple yet strange command, but however they searched for Naiye, he would not pay attention to the Caesar Federation.

The Caesar Federation were merely thieves who stole his grandfather’s technology; the Lycoris family would not treat them kindly.

Their reason for searching for Young Master Naiye was most likely for magical technology.

After all, the Lycoris family, who created magical technology, completely outclassed the entire Caesar Federation in that field alone.

The robot had actually targeted the pigtail hot girl earlier, not Young Master Naiye.

“Young Master Naiye!”

On the other side, the three members of the Engineering Knight Order came over from Train Station No. 1.

They hurried over at the sound of gunfire to check, but the robot and such had already been dealt with.

“Grace, you came just in time. This robot is yours; take these books and study!”

Naiye activated a spatial magic circle and took out three books on the related knowledge.

He then placed them into Grace and the others’ hands and let them study on their own.

“Thank you so much! But Young Master Naiye, what do you need us to do?”

“You should study these books well. Afterwards I’ll give you the other books concerning the train, and finally, in the name of the Lycoris family I invite you to help manage Train Station No. 1!”

“…!”

“Th-thank you so much!”

“Yes! We will do our best!”

The three from the Engineering Knight Order were overjoyed and completely forgot that they had originally come to warn Young Master Naiye that someone had arrived.

Actually, these past few days Young Master Naiye had invited them to Train Station No. 1 to start repairing or crafting various gadgets.

This time they were finally taking the first formal step!

After leaving the robot with Grace and the others, Young Master Naiye took the pigtail hot girl and headed toward the train station.

Along the way Young Master Naiye suddenly hugged her slim waist.

“Y-Young Master Naiye!”

Young Master Naiye’s face was very close, making her want to muster the courage to leap forward.

“I also have something—a job to ask you to do.”

The pigtail boss’s eyes widened, joy gathering in them.

Young Master Naiye had something to entrust to her—this meant he trusted her!

“Yes, I will definitely complete it!”

“In the name of the Lycoris family, I hire you and your people to maintain the train station; you must guarantee your conduct and quality! The salary will certainly be satisfactory. How about it?”

“Of course! I will definitely protect this place!”

The pigtail girl happily confirmed with Young Master Naiye, her heart actually leaping with joy.

She thought this would bring her closer to Young Master Naiye!

“Welcome aboard, but let’s end today’s date here; I have things to attend to.”

“Yes, thank you very much for your trust!”

She was extremely happy today!
