Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

Finally, on this day worth celebrating, Kyle is back, and he was picked up by his sister!

The moment we met, I immediately hugged him... Although the smell was a bit strong, I couldn't resist. I greedily inhaled his scent. If it weren't for my sister's "reminder," I wouldn't know when to let go.

Later, I don't know how, Kyle and Ilya got into a fight, and she even talked back a little. I shouldn't have... Oh, where's the clothes he took off? Turns out they were in the trash can. I found them! I'm so happy.

What made me even happier was that Kyle gave me a ring and, at my request, put it on my finger.

I actually know that becoming "family" is destiny, but I can't give him an answer yet. After all, it was already decided that I would wait until he and Alice got married first before I would...

Mmm, sleeping all night holding my new clothes, which smelled of Kyle, was incredibly satisfying...

The next day, before Kyle even got out of bed, someone quietly opened his bedroom door. Wow, the whole room smelled of him! Sniffing the aroma, they leaned over the bed, watching his sleeping face, and their eyelids grew heavy again…

Huh, who's calling me? Open your eyes and look... How come that pocket watch that fell in Kyle's room is right in front of me?

Hmm... It seems to be in Kyle's hands. Does he know something that only Alice knows? Will he think I'm a bad girl who only follows "orc instincts"...? No, no, no, what should I do?

—(Pink Memories Dividing Line)—

Seeing Martha's strong reaction after opening her eyes and seeing the pocket watch, Wang Kai couldn't figure out why for a moment and could only force a smile.

"You mean this watch? It should be yours... Where you found it isn't that important anymore, what's important is that it's being returned to you. Here, take it..."

Martha was a little flustered, but after noticing no other strange looks in Wang Kai's eyes, she calmed herself down and walked over, gently taking the pocket watch from his hand and whispering something.

"Thank you, Kyle. Now that you're back, you shouldn't leave alone to go on adventures again, right..."

"Huh, does Martha have some kind of mind-reading ability? I also seriously considered this question last night, whether or not we should continue down the 'single-player route'. Why is she asking this so early in the morning? Does her orc bloodline give her a keen ability to observe?"

Wang Kai remained silent for a moment, and Martha immediately realized something. Her face darkened. This time, she didn't want to compromise like last time, so she put her hands on her hips and tilted her head.

"Brother Kyle, you're probably thinking of going on an adventure alone behind my sister's back again, aren't you... Two words: No way!"

"You guessed right... No, who said I was leaving?"

"Stop lying. When people lie, their breathing becomes disordered. I can smell the difference just by moving my nose slightly. Even if you ask for their consent this time as a 'family member,' it's absolutely impossible. Even if you're leaving to go on an adventure in the outside world, you have to take me with you... and Sister Lan!"

When the conversation touched on "key figures," Wang Kai sighed, walked to the window, took a deep breath, and said...

"I'm actually not very good at lying. Even white lies sometimes make me bite my tongue... So let me tell you the truth. What's so great about being an adventurer? You're constantly running around exhausted, risking your life to venture into the wilderness, or even more dangerous dungeons... Simply put, it's all about making money to live a good life... Now your Lan-jie has more money than she could ever spend in ten lifetimes. Finding a beautiful place with good scenery, building a castle, and living a carefree life every day is no problem at all. Martha, don't you think I'm right...?"

Martha stared blankly at Wang Kai, her little face full of surprise. She was a reasonable girl, and although she knew it was the correct understanding, it still sounded a little uncomfortable. She puffed out her cheeks and replied with displeasure.

“Indeed, Sister Lan’s ‘inventions’ are great. She also fulfilled her wish to ‘let us live in the rich area of ​​Merck Town.’ Since I came here, I have no worries about food or drink, and I have no troubles. This kind of life is unimaginable even in my dreams… But there is a feeling, a feeling that I can’t explain, as if something is missing in my life…”

"It must be the 'excitement' that comes after the mundane..."

"Stimulate?"

"Yes, in our area, the only worries of rich kids when they wake up every day are what to eat, what to wear, and what fun places to go to have fun. When they can't keep up with eating, lodging, and playing, they'll meet up with some friends to go to bars and have a blast, and even cause trouble after drinking to seek thrills... After settling everything with money, they feel it doesn't matter, and they continue to cause trouble to bring new thrills. There's a very apt description... 'The troubles of the rich'."

Martha shook her head, probably because she couldn't understand these profound topics.

"Brother Kyle, you seem to have changed a lot in the past two or three months. Did something unpleasant happen to you?"

"No, I'm very happy, but also shocked. I thought I had achieved a significant milestone, but who would have thought... she would reach a height that most people could never reach in several lifetimes, as if she had been propelled by a rocket. Compared to her, I feel ashamed. Only now do I realize how insignificant my previous confidence was in other people's eyes, something that could be completely disregarded..."

"Are you talking about Sister Lan? After you came back and met her this time, did she look down on you? Did she make fun of you? Or even feel dissatisfied with you, her partner who has always been by her side, in some ways?"

Wang Kai thought for a moment and then shook his head.

"She didn't show any dissatisfaction with me, but in the face of these 'achievements' that everyone can see, no one can connect 'Kyle' and 'the Saintess of the Otherworld,' not even one percent of the brilliance of your 'Saintess Attendant' status, Martha, could easily overshadow my existence... So, there's no point in me staying by your side. Since there's no point, can I still use the 'adventure companion' label to get you to come with me on an adventure to unknown and dangerous places? Don't be ridiculous... Haha."

Before he could finish speaking, Martha rushed over and grabbed one of Wang Kai's hands.

"Shut up, shut up, Kyle! Listen to what you're saying!"

"Ah, wasn't I telling the truth? Martha, can't you tell the truth from lies by your breathing?"

"It's because you're telling the truth, but people absolutely don't agree... Come with me!"

"Hey, wait a minute..."

Without a word, Martha dragged Wang Kai out of the guest room. The force of her steps and the tight grip on her small hands indicated that she was genuinely angry. Wang Kai didn't dare say anything and could only let her drag him away.
