Chapter 972
‘To think that you'll care for a mere slave like me, Your Majesty...’ Metatron was deeply moved by Siegfried’s kindness. He expected that Siegfried would not allow him to take time off and visit the Demon Realm.
Contrary to his expectations, Siegfried had gone so far as to prepare a gift for his father, something he had never even dreamed of.
“Sniff...! Your Majesty...!”
“Huh? Hey, why are you crying?”
Siegfried tilted his head in confusion as Metatron wiped away his tears.
“Hey, what’s wrong with you?” Siegfried asked.
Metatron immediately prostrated and cried out, “Your Majesty...! Thank you! I have been worried sick every day because of my father’s deteriorating health!”
“Huh?”
“And yet... you gave me such a precious gift... Sniff!”
“Eh? Come on, this is nothing. We have this tradition where I’m from. Bosses give their subordinates gifts when they return to their hometowns. So, no need to get so emotional over it.”
“N-No, Your Majesty... Sniff! Sniff! This means so much to me...!”
“You little punk.”
