A sound of gritting teeth came.
When he showed signs of dislike, Holly felt better. At the same time, seeing her smile, Adam distorted his face.
“Why would I
”
“Adam.”
As he was about to get angry, Cahill called out to him in a firm voice, like warning him. Adam glared at Badin, who had caused this situation, with a disgruntled face before snatching the note from Holly’s hand.
“They don’t have to come with us.”
Adam was not alone in disapproving of this uncomfortable companionship. With Cahill’s cold gaze, he winced and his shoulders drooped.
“We can travel together in the future. You don’t want to?”
“Even without them, we will still be together.”
At the soothing words, Cahill frowned and took her hand. He even clasped it tightly as if he was afraid she might run away.
“Didn’t you hear me saying they kept chasing and disturbing?”
Holly raised her voice as if to let them hear it, gazing into Adam’s eyes. She confidently exclaimed that if they ostracized them and left only Cahill and Holly, they would somehow find them again and bother them.
“There are ways to make them not follow.”
As Cahill’s voice was muffled, Holly’s and Adam’s shoulders shook at the same time as a chill ran down their spines.
“Before we go shopping, I want to book a room at the inn where you’re at.”
Badin intervened as if to cut off Cahill’s dangerous thoughts. He looked tired, as though he wanted to go to bed right away.
“Are you going to follow me to the inn?”
It seemed that his ploy to divert Cahill’s attention was a success. Cahill made an openly disgusted face.
“How can I trust Your Highness and let you go like this?”
Badin shrugged his shoulders with a calm face, perhaps he didn’t care about Cahill’s irritation. He, too, seemed to want to make Cahill king, just as much as Adam.
“I want to rest, too. Let’s go.”
When even Holly, who had been watching from the sidelines, helped out, Cahill finally moved his foot.
When Badin and Adam came back, the innkeeper’s mouth stretched. He was delighted to seize the opportunity to earn money, even though he was troubled by the increasing number of unsuitable guests at the shabby inn.
“There are precious people in such a humble place
”
“Even if it is shabby, it is too shabby! Your Hi, no, Mister Cahill. I will take you to a better inn.”
Before the master’s words could be finished, Adam stopped in front of Cahill and spoke. He didn’t forget to glare at Holly, seemingly thinking that it was her fault that Cahill ended up staying at a shabby inn.
‘It’s not exactly wrong, but
’
Holly frowned at Adam’s unapologetic rudeness.
‘So noble.’
He was just like all the nobles she had seen, in a bad way.
“I made it clear that if you offend Holly, you will leave.”
Cahill looked at Holly’s frown and sighed coldly. It was only then that Adam apologized to the innkeeper with a cold expression.
“This is the only room right next door.”
Soon, the owner opened the door to the adjoining room Cahill and Holly were renting. It was a double room, like where the two were staying. The two men’s brows furrowed at the sight of the queen-sized bed in the room.
“I have no interest in sharing a bed with a man.”
Badin spat out his words quietly.
“Do you know who this is?”
Adom raised his voice with a straight face. He seemed to have hurt his pride for not being able to speak before Badin. The small innkeeper was sweating profusely and did not know what to do.
“Then, why don’t we change rooms?”
Badin looked at Cahill, and his eyes lit up.
“Well, the next room is the same
”
Before Cahill could answer the innkeeper in a trembling voice, it felt like the words would end up in tears at one more word.
“The same room
 are you sharing the same bed?”
Adam glanced back and forth between Holly and Cahill in amazement. He was like a mother whose shocked eyes had found lewd pictures under her son’s bed. Even if the two share the same room, they seem to think Cahill and Holly would share a separate bed.
“Are there any other rooms?”
His eyes were burning as he looked at the innkeeper.
“A room with two side by side
”
Before the words ended, Adam turned towards Cahill.
“I-I’d, I’d rather share a room with that woman! His Highness and Badin
”
Cahill, who had been looking at Adam coolly without an expression, opened his mouth with a serious face.
“Come to think of it, you said you molested Holly.”
Saying so, he glared at Adam with sharp eyes.
“
Yes? That was actually a misunderstanding—Wait a minute, Your Highness
 what’s wrong?”
He aggressively pushed Adam, who had been struggling, into the room. Of course, unable to push his master, he was pushed.
“Wait here a minute.”
Cahill, who was about to enter the room after him, suddenly stopped and spoke to Holly before turning his gaze to Badin, who was standing behind Holly.
Seeing that, he quickly took a step back from her.
“My fertility is precious.”
Badin said with a blunt face and shook his head.
Holly, who was listening to their conversation from the sidelines, narrowed her eyes at the strange words. It seemed like the people of that country, including Cahill, have a bit of a strange corner.
“
What a greedy guy.”
Cahill, who was staring at Badin, entered the room and closed the door after only saying that.
‘This man is greedy
?’
Holly looked up at Badin in disbelief. There was no desire to be seen on his face.
“Take off your pants.”
Looking at Badin with suspicious eyes, she widened her eyes at Cahill’s voice coming from beyond the closed door.
“The sound insulation is poor.”
She flinched at Badin’s muttering. When sleeping with Cahill earlier, she moaned loudly. She turned around just in case as she thought so, and the innkeeper, whose eyes met her, averted her gaze, blushing.
Holly buried her face in her palm, feeling like she wanted to hide.
“No matter how much I tell you, this is not it. Where, where are you touching
!”
It seemed that Adam was in danger. A continuous screaming sound came from inside.
“Where is he touching?”
Holly reflexively turned to Badin at the words that came out of her mind, but he still didn’t change his expression. Badin seemed to not hate the situation of not being able to enter the room.
What on earth were they doing inside
?
Adam’s short scream rang out over and over again. It was only after a while that Cahill eventually opened the door again. Looking at it curiously, she could see Adam sitting in the corner of her room with a face that seemed to have lost his soul.
“He’s fine.”
Cahill, holding Holly’s arm, spat out as if he was dissatisfied with something. Adam, who had been staring blankly at those words, turned his head away.
“What?”
“If you’re going to break it, you should have broken it right.”
After hearing that, she had a clear picture of what had happened in the room. Holly shook her head, feeling unwilling to remember.
Meanwhile, Adam’s face turned white in shock from the other side.
“I guess I should teach you self-defense. Next time something like that happens, never send them back intact.”
Hearing that, Adam understood the reason for Cahill suddenly asking him to take off his pants. He trembled as he remembered his master’s hand groping between his legs. Eventually, Badin sighed and went into the room before grabbing Adam by the back.
“Then, we’ll go shopping.”
Badin himself said the words first, and as if his mind was not relieved, he couldn’t step away easily.
“If you don’t trust Cahill, trust me.”
Only then did Badin nod his head as Holly intervened. Cahill, who glanced at the two of them alternately, frowned.
“Are you close with Badin?”
Cahill’s voice came from behind Badin as he turned around. At first glance, it sounds like he was complaining, but there was a chilly murderous energy.
“Don’t be too much. After that, you’ll really get hated by His Highness.”
Badin, who left the inn, let go of Adam, whom he had dragged around. Seeing them in person, as expected, Holly was not a simple existence for Cahill.
“It is all thanks to Holly that His Highness was able to travel properly and that we were able to accompany him.”
It would be embarrassing if Adam offended Holly and got kicked out. Perhaps, he wouldn’t let Adam go before Holly kicked him out. Even if it wasn’t, he didn’t want to be put in an uncomfortable situation throughout the trip.
“Okay, stop it.”
Adam grunted, smoothing out his crumpled clothes. Cahill’s sudden action of taking off his pants must have been a shock, and he was definitely stunned.
Badin, who was not satisfied with Adam, moved his feet toward the market, thinking that it was fortunate.
