Momonga knew, Mare should not have been like this. Even if one wrote a
long character description for their NPCs, it would not be reflected in their
personalities.

Yet, these two Dark Elf children were displaying animated emotions in front
of Momonga.

“—They must be the Aura and Mare that Bukubukuchagama-san wanted to

see.”

Bukubukuchagama was the guild member who had designed these two
Dark Elf characters.

If only she could have been here for this...

“I, I’m sorry I kept you waiting, Momonga-sama…”

He nervously raised his eyes to peek at Momonga. He wore a vest of blue

dragon scales, and a small cape that was as green as jungle leaves.

His clothes had the same basic white color as Aura, but a short section of
flesh peeked out below his short skirt. It was short because the rest of his
legs were covered in white silk stockings. He had an acorn-shaped pendant
on a necklace like Aura, but his was made of silver.

Mare was much more lightly armed than Aura, with a pair of lustrous white
gloves on his dainty little hands, and a gnarled black staff in his hands.

Mare Bello Fiore.

Like Aura, he was a Guardian of the Sixth Floor of the Great Underground
Tomb of Nazarick.

Momonga squinted — though his eyes were merely empty sockets — and
looked at them. Aura thrust her chest forward proudly, while Mare simply
cowered under Momonga’s gaze.

He nodded several times, musing that the two of them were indeed the
incarnation of his comrade’s hard work.

“I’m glad to see that the two of you are in good spirits.”

“I’m positively overflowing with energy… although it’s been a bit boring
recently. It would be nice if we had an intruder or two.”

“I, I would rather not have to meet intruders… they, they’re scary…”

After hearing Mare’s words, Aura’s expression changed:

“...Haa. Momonga-sama, please excuse me for a while. Mare, come with

me.”

“O-Oww… Nee-chan, that hurts…”

After seeing Momonga nod slightly, Aura pinched Mare by the tip of one of
his ears and dragged him away from Momonga. Then, she began
whispering into Mare’s ear. Even from a distance, one could tell that she
was scolding him.

“...Intruders, huh. Well, much like you, I don’t want to meet them either,
Mare…”

At least, I’d rather meet them after having the chance to make all the
preparations I need, Momonga thought as he watched the twin Guardians
from afar.

After he snapped back to reality, Momonga realised that Mare was on his
knees in front of Aura, who was hurling a torrent of abuse at him.
