Freeloaders (1)

Yuri was the one that led them in answering again as she said, "My lord, we are here to confirm your safety and to protect you while you recover."

The other three nodded in agreement with this before looking at me, as if they were waiting for my response.

But I just looked at the four of them with narrowed eyes for a bit before asking in a cold voice, "Is that really the only reason that you're here?"

When they heard this, all four of them couldn't help trembling.

The three in the back couldn't help looking away slightly while Yuri just lowered her head a bit.

It was clear that the four of them were hiding something.

So I spoke in a cold voice again, "Well? Out with it."

The four of them still didn't speak as they bit their lips, as if they were afraid to say anything.

But in the end, the pressure that I put on them was enough to make Yuri confess.
