“Wait, who is that handsome guy?” Lin Yu noticed someone on the wanted poster who wasn’t in Night Raid.

“Huh? You don’t recognize him? That’s Bulat!”

“Ah?! Big Brother Bulat, are you sure?” Lin Yu couldn’t imagine a Bulat with a slicked-back hairstyle being the same person as the handsome Bulat on the wanted poster. Is that hairstyle really that important?

“Anyway, Boss said Bulat has had that hairstyle ever since he joined Night Raid.”

Mine said.

“…”

As Lin Yu and Mine continued to wander, sounds of teasing and pain came from a nearby alley.

Hey… hey…

Uh… uh… uh…

Two people, one fat and one thin, were seen strangling a ragged, blue-haired, blue-eyed little girl.

“You…” Mine was about to step forward…

“You two good-for-nothings, don’t you know how to repent!”

Lin Yu immediately recognized these two as the sons of the inn owner.

“It’s… it’s you!”

Both were shocked! They thought they would never encounter Lin Yu again in this lifetime.

“It’s me. A dog can’t change its habit of eating shit!” Lin Yu’s anger flared up inexplicably at these two bullying this little girl!

“St-stop! She’s a refugee from another country, not one of our Empire’s people!” The two immediately made their final defense.

“So…” Mine wanted to step forward again…

“And then you think you’re superior, so you can bully her, right? Since she’s not from this country, even if she’s a little girl, you still want to bully her, right?”

Lin Yu began to roll up his sleeves. Discrimination, is it? People here look down on people from there, right? The key is, you two don’t even respect your own countrymen; you just like to pick on the weak.

Bang! × 2

One punch each, and they were sound asleep.

“Um… thank you…”

The blue-haired little girl thanked him in a soft, voice.

“Don’t…” Mine was about to say a few words…

“Little sister, are you okay? Tell big brother, are there many more like you?”

Lin Yu squatted down, wiping the dust from the blue-haired little girl’s face.

He was selfish; he only helped those who touched his emotions.

“Th-there’s still a little bit…”

“Got it. You go back first. Big brother will come find you in a bit.”

Lin Yu smiled. The Imperial Guard’s prison was in dire need of people.

“If you do that, she won’t be able to become strong.” Mine finally had a chance to speak.

“So what? I’m the captain of the Imperial Guard. I have the ability to ensure their survival.”

“And then what? What will they do when they grow up?” Mine was a little agitated. When she was little, she was just like that little girl, bullied in various ways because she wasn’t from this country. She also hoped someone would save her, but her tears dried up, and no one like Lin Yu came to her rescue.

She swore never to cry again. To avoid being bullied, she could only make herself stronger.

“When they grow up? The boys will work in the Imperial Guard, and the girls can come be my maids. I’ve already thought it through.”

One must make good use of their authority.

“…”

What was supposed to be a good conversation fell into a dead silence.

Mine’s brain hadn’t quite caught up. “Huh?”

“How simple is that~? Did you forget I’m the captain of the Imperial Guard? Arranging jobs isn’t very simple?”

“N-no, I mean the maid part.”

“Maids? You can’t look down on maids, Mine. A maid’s work is very hard too.”

Lin Yu explained earnestly.

“You’re a pervert, aren’t you!” Mine said, her face red. Cultivating them from a young age, if he wasn’t a pervert, what was he? Calling him a lolicon would be overstating it.

“Your prejudice is a big mountain. I just accidentally saw you in your underwear, and you suspect I’m a pervert? I just want them to have a job.”

Lin Yu was even more serious.

“I didn’t!” Mine quickly retorted.

“Then why is your face red like a bubble tea? You must have thought something you shouldn’t have.”

Lin Yu was still very serious.

“Ugh!”

Mine’s face, which was already red in two spots, turned completely red:

“Mind your own business!”

After punching Lin Yu in the stomach, she walked away indignantly.

“Women, huh~” Lin Yu sighed.

When he tried to follow, he felt something was off. Right, it was the System.

System bro, with my perfect operation just now, why didn’t the goodwill value increase or decrease? Are you slacking off a bit?
