" Arwin Herbin the owner of the magic tower, who does not belong anywhere although his place lies in the imperial palace. "

"Ouch"

Arwin dramatically said with Latte's observation how he does not belong anywhere.

" The same scenes from the last chapter play about Arwin's angelic face (Too lazy to repeat this ;-;)

"If I don't hurry up mother will come back from her morning walk. Did I wake up too early..? Fell dead tired."

Latte is shown with a fedora. 

"The morning streets are energetic?!"

'Since I still have some time. I'll stop time, I'll stop by the publisher!' The screen shows a book shop.

"Welcome, what business brings you here?"

"Um will you tell Booke that "Rose is here?"

"To the boss? All right."

'Booke's publisher was a small one but thanks to me, it grew so big.'

"MASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Booke is shown running in.

"YOU CAME!!!!!!!!!!"

"It's been a while"

"Welcome! Welcome Madam."

'He wasn't this polite from the begging...'

A flashback is shown of a young Latte begging Booke to publish the book. 'The manuscript that Booke thought of as some kind of joke 3 years ago... The moment it took the 1st place in the number of copies sold. He addressed me starting from "lady" to "writer" and lately ended up to "Master"'

"Oh don't you smell something? A snobbish smell. Anyways I think the next work will take some time Booke."

"Oh is that so? Then how long.."

"I can't give you a definite answer. I've got work to do for quite a while."

"Hng.. Well it can't be helped! I should pay more attention to export."

"Wow..."

"Export? To where?

"Do you remember Dumpking and Nansure kingdom that I mentioned last time."

"Lift, their reactions were extremely good, so I've decided to agree on a few more works."

"Hmmm...."

"I'm thinking of branching out based on the sales including Lana kingdom of course. Oh! And we opened 3 more branches. Larger population means bigger market, you know."

The screen shows Latte looking at a stack of gold coins. 

"Hoho~ Really??"

'I'm on a roll~ Actually I didn't expect such success. Since I was keeping my writing a secret I couldn't bring the money home and had to keep it at the publishing company.' There are letters with hearts and bags of cash shown yet again. 'I had once asked Booke.

"Why in the world is it selling so well?"

Booke smiled ear to ear and started giving an impassioned speech.' "

"Damn his smile is creepy."

Esula pointed out. 

"Wait who was writing those love letters to her?"

Kenneth asked.

"Love letters, what love letters?"

Arwin said.

"There were love letters?"

Cano spoke.

"There were hearts on those letters?"

Rosaline pointed out.

"But who would write love letters to her?"

Rondemio asked. More confused chaos ensued for a solid ten minutes.

" 'To put it short, he says my novel is a Draxxball among the major textbooks, and Seoxxxji's music among the calm classical music.'

"I believe we should triple  the number of copies for the new work. Anyways I will be waitin and here is the money you have left. Thanks good luck!"

Booke is shown handing Latte a big wad of cash.

"Thanks Booke! I'll come back for more next time."

"I was always curious, but where do you use all that money?"

"Luxury."

"Huh?"

Booke looks off into the vast unknown thinking of how plain Latte's outfit is.

'He doesn't know how huge the world of luxury is. How shallow.'

"Oh take care!!!"

"It's already so hot." "

"She's already so hot." -Arwin

"What?" -Anyone in the room

"What..?" -Arwin

" 'Shall I eat something?' A kid being hungry is shown.

"I'm hungry help me~"

'Uh..!!! The welfare is set to be quite good in this country... How come there's a child begging.. This child..? Oh, right. I think it's a set up for Ibelin and Arwin to meet..?' "

"Who would make a child suffer just to make someone look good?"

Ibelin said in distress. With that it hit Kenneth and Arwin that all their separate suffering and pain was just for the entertainment of others.

" Ibelin doesn't get caught up with the gangsters for no reason. She gives alms to the starving child from sympathy, but the gangsters fund out the source of the money and surround and threaten her. "

"That is so sweet of her!"

Rosaline cued.

"It really isn't even out of good intention it is a death sentence for starving kids."

Arwin said rolling his head so hard his eyes could practically roll out of his face.

"Oh sorry I didn't know.."

Ibelin said tears coming back to her eyes for the a millionth time. 

"Leave her alone man, she was just trying to be nice."

Kenneth spoke with anger.

" The screen shows a bakery with Latte leaving it. 'I may not look like it but I used to be a regular sponsor for UNXXF. I can't just pass by although you're just a set-up....'

"THANK YE"

"There, there you're eating so well...hmm..."

'I feel a bit relieved now let's wait for Ibelin.' "

"See, now that is what you're supposed to do"

Arwin said.

"Well sorry I wanted to give him money to get stuff more than food."

Ibelin snapped back.

"Wow, are you showing your true colours?"

"No I am just defending myself there is a difference."

" 'Originally I would be hiding and eating popcorn, but right now I can't relax...'

"Oh I feel empty, empty."

'Hang in there I have to get close with Ibelin.'

Latte is shown jumping around with Ibelin.

'Now, come quickly, my rub hill.'  A image of Ibelin as a hill pops up yet again. 

"Ding."

'Wait! That person-?!'

"To be continued..."
