Volume 2 Chapter 43 A Meeting Of Sexual Harassment Known As Overtime
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
After stuffing myself with the dinner prepared by the maids at my house, my stomach full, I was walking down the hallway thinking about reading a book in my room when I noticed that the Red Valkyrie office in the annex still had its lights on.
Hmm, are Giuliana and the others still working on something?
I also wanted to dig up the details about Aida from Giuliana, so I decided to head towards the office with the lights on.
*Click*
When I entered the office, there were 2 women already being investigated as potential staff members by Annabella and Milly.
”Is this Sir Kent? Is it for something concerning Giuliana, the Hunting Group Leader?”
The one who spoke to me was the fundamental female secretary, boasting a Secretary Level of 50.
Her name was Helga, and she was a rabbit-type Majin.
The rabbit type is quite an unusual race; originally, they belonged to the Garuda clan of beastmen, which inherited the blood of the Beast King, Vanquish.
1800 years ago, when the Black Dragon chief Fabulanova led Garuda, Dream Demons, and Rakshasas into rebelling against the Demon Lord in the “Great Rebellion of the Four clans,” this race was banished from Garuda clan because they refused to join the rebellion.
After that, for over 500 years, the rabbit race wandered around the country, mating with the humans who lived in the cities, and after the ‘Human-Demon War’, the prisoners and immigrants who remained in the demon territory were recognized as Majin, and Lina told me that this race was incorporated into the Majin when they were recognized as the eighth clan of the demons.
She is a rabbit, but perhaps because of the crossbreeding with the Majin, she does not show any obvious physical characteristics like other species.
According to the information Annabella had looked up, she was 28 years old, 165cm (5’41) tall, with a G-cup bust of 92, waist 58, hips 88, and a curvaceous body wrapped in a tight black miniskirt and a thin white blouse.
Her hair was medium length, almost white, and reached her shoulders, and her eyes were a beautiful red color.
”Sir Kent, by the way, this afternoon I received a message from Director Werner of the treatment clinic saying that I should serve you well… what does this mean?”
The Healer Veris, who was doing paperwork on the opposite side of Helga, asked me.
She has also already investigated and noted that her clan is the same Rakshasa as Lana, but unlike Lana, her race is categorized as Engineer and seems to prioritize experiments and real-world applications over scholarly pursuits; she is 18 years old, stands at a height of 154cm, and unlike Helga, who has a figure of B82 (B cup), W56, and H79, Veris’s body, wrapped in a white robe, seems to have less distinct curves.
Her hair is brown and reaches the middle of her back in beautiful long locks, with the horns typical of Rakshasa clan hidden beneath longer bangs; her face still retains a youthful look, but her curious brown eyes were busily moving around.
”It was Ms. Veris, right? When I took the Healer certification exam this morning, Director Werner asked me to refrain from poaching any more candidates, and included in that message was encouragement for Ms. Veris to do her best, wasn’t it?”
”Huh, Sir Kent actually took the Healer certification exam? Excuse me, but you don’t have any practical experience, do you?”
”No, I don’t. Your master Lana insisted that I take it.”
”So, you passed on your first try?”
”Yeah, I’m technically just a rookie Healer.”
”Sir Kent is amazing! To pass the Healer certification exam on the first try like that… I failed 3 times!”

Because I took off my glasses and put me in my breast pocket when I came here, Veris became a Handsome Guy Carrier in this conversation.
”Don’t worry, Veris is already a healer. All you have to do is build up your track record. You won’t have any trouble finding an opponent here, right?”
”That’s right. Thanks to Sir Kent’s consideration, members with bruises or minor injuries come to get treatment every day, so we’re growing rapidly. Thank you so much.”
”By the way, Helga, where did Giuliana go?”
I turned to talk to Helga.
My gaze was drawn to a certain point.
It was hard to tell if Helga was unaware or doing it on purpose, but I could see black underwear through her thin white blouse.
The secretary’s sheer lingerie is pretty erotic…
”Oh, the Hunting Group leader went to call Ms. Aida. We’re supposed to discuss Ms. Aida’s party after this.”
”Do Ms. Aida and Giuliana meet often?”
I asked Helga, Giuliana’s secretary, about how frequently Aida meets.
”Well… um, probably, she meets with the party leader (PL) the most. Also, a lot of meetings happen after we leave.”
Seeing Helga checking the visitors for Giuliana in her notebook, I thought she was quite an excellent secretary.
”By the way, Helga, changing the subject, how is Giuliana? Is she managing well?”
”Yes! Group Leader Giuliana is a wonderful person. Some people make fun of her just because she’s a ghost clan, but there’s no one who works harder than her! Sir Kent, I believe it was you who helped me get this job. I’m truly grateful.”

Helga also became a Handsome Guy Carrier, and her friendship level rose rapidly.
”Oh, no. I saw your track record and thought you’d be perfect for Giuliana’s assistant, so I offered you the job. It was Helga’s ability that got her this job.”
”I was fired from my job as a secretary for a female Noble, and couldn’t find a new job. I was struggling to make ends meet, and was trying to become a Monster Hunter. But it was Sir Kent who picked me up!”
Tears were gathering in Helga’s eyes and threatening to spill out.
For Helga, who had a hard time finding a job, this job was a stroke of luck.
”By the way, can both of you stay late today? I think it might turn into an all-nighter, is that okay?”
”Overtime, huh… and even an overnight shift… Is there some urgent work, perhaps?”
Since Helga asked about the reason for the overtime, I was looking for a suitable excuse.
Ah, that’s right.
I remember Giuliana said she would bring Aida, so I could just say it’s a meeting for party formation.
”I’m thinking of having a meeting about party formation with Giuliana and Aida involved. I’d like you both to participate and share your opinions; what do you think?”
Helga responded to my question.
”If it’s Sir Kent’s request, I’ll stay late even if it turns into an overnight shift. Since I live alone, it’s not a problem for me to stay late.”
Veris, hearing Helga’s reply, hurriedly responded as well.
”I’m fine with it too. I can just explain the reason to my family when I get home, they should understand.”
Having secured the two’s overtime, I sat on the reception sofa and chatted with them until Giuliana returned.
* * *
”Lord Kent… what is going on here? I hadn’t heard that the two of them would still be staying.”
Giuliana, who returned to the office with Aida, was surprised to see the two working overtime.
”Giuliana, I want to discuss party formation with these girls included from now on. Of course, I want Ms. Aida to participate as well.”
”Um, Lord Kent. What exactly is this discussion about party formation? I wasn’t informed about it.”
I stare intently into Giuliana’s eyes.
Giuliana looked uneasy under my gaze.
Hmm, that seems suspicious.
”Hunting Group leader Giuliana, please let us participate in the discussion. We don’t mind working all night.”
Helga and Veris plead with Giuliana.
Aida, who was watching, came up to me.
”Kent, what did you tell those girls? And the discussion about party formation. Kent is a member of Crimson Bride… Oh, what’s this… I can’t believe it”

In this way, Aida, who seems to have been getting cozy with Giuliana, has also become my Handsome Guy Carrier.
”Ms. Aida, I don’t intend to meddle in the organization of your party. In fact, I would like to support you. However, the way you’re going about it is a bit… problematic.”
”N-no, there’s nothing shady about it. I just carefully explained the benefits of that party to Giuliana!”
Feeling like I might hit a nerve, Aida quickly turned her head away.
”On the bed, right? You played around with Giuliana’s body and got that formation approved, didn’t you? Am I wrong?”
I spoke in a hushed tone, just loud enough for Aida to hear.
”N-no! Going to bed together was just a stretch to relieve stress. I had no intention of seducing her! I swear it’s true!”
Aida turned bright red with anger as I correctly guessed her secret.
This confirms Aida’s guilt.
”Giuliana! Come here for a moment!”
”W-what is it, Lord Kent? Why are you shouting?”
”Serious doubts have emerged regarding Aida’s role as Party Leader in this party formation, so I would like to hear an explanation from Giuliana, the head of the Hunting Group.”
Giuliana, who came to my side, looked around restlessly.
It seemed Giuliana was sure I had found out.
The other 2 appeared to be clueless about the conversation, just staring blankly.
”Giuliana, take it off here. I’ll take care of the rest.”
