"Nobles?"
Novi listened to Moss and asked in confusion:
"Does that have anything to do with this?"
"No..."
Moss's expression did not change at all. She suddenly grasped Novi's hand before she could pull it back and continued smiling.
"If all goes smoothly, perhaps we'll have many opportunities to work together in the future."
"Work together?"
Looking at Moss's smile, Novi seemed to see the merchants who often visited her father. She suddenly understood.
"Does Miss Molly want to go into business in the future?"
"No, no, no. I'm not going to become a merchant."
Moss shook her head with a smile, released Novi's hand, and turned toward the door as she spoke:
"Merchants are the ones who covet money. I don't have any particular fondness for these metal goods. I'll only earn what I want..."
She stood at the doorway, turned to look at the two of them, and smiled.
"Well, I'll head back first."
"Umeilu just woke up, and I'm a little worried."
Moss waved to them and left the room.
Axio was still standing quietly by the doorway. When he saw Moss come out, he bowed respectfully.
"Miss Molly, would you like me to escort you back?"
At that, Moss smiled and shook her head.
"No need. I remember the way."
Moss was just about to leave when she seemed to remember something.
"Ah! Mr. Axio, I'm a little hungry. Could you prepare dinner for two?"
"Understood. I'll give the order immediately."
Axio bowed slightly. He wiped a hand over the badge on his chest and began instructing the Floating Ship's kitchen to prepare the meal.
Moss did not linger either. After speaking, she leisurely turned and left.
The campaign would not begin so soon. In fact, the Floating Ship would first return to the nearest Hill
