Unexpectedly, this kind of joke seemed to hit the mark as Sesenia chuckled.
“Oh, you’re the first one to genuinely laugh at my joke. Everyone else used to fake it.”
“It’s more amusing than I thought.”
If Lizbeth or others had seen it, they would probably be shocked, wondering what part was funny. However, Sesenia genuinely found his joke amusing.
“Haha. I’m in a really good mood today.”
“I’m glad to hear that. By the way, what brings you here?”
“I finished what you asked. So, where is that guy?”
“Tedy?”
“Yeah, that slave guy.”
Matapju scanned Sesenia’s room here and there.
“He’s at the Company. This place is not suitable for keeping Tedy.”
“Probably to keep it from being noticed by others.”
“There is that reason, but if what I requested is finished… are you here with the culprit?”
“I hid him in this space.”
“In that place… Is it okay to put a person there?”
There were rumors about mages putting objects in this space and traveling with them.
However, the idea of putting a human there was something Sesenia had never heard before. But he didn’t seem to find it strange at all and shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, as long as he doesn’t die, it’s fine.”
“Ah, have you put people in there often?”
“No, this is the first time. But surprisingly, it seems like he’s doing well in that space. It doesn’t seem to endanger his life. Hm, I’ll have to study this part a bit more.”
As if intrigued by the new research subject, he stroked his chin with an interested expression.
“I see. Anyway, shall we head to the Company? If I go first, will you come as you did now?”
“Just come with me using magic.”
“Ordinary people would be surprised if you suddenly appeared like that. I don’t want to startle my people.”
“That’s why powerless beings are quite inconvenient. Can’t be helped. Since you say so. I’ll specially ride in the carriage with you.”
Sesenia decisively nodded.
“If someone who didn’t have an appointment with me rides the carriage with me, that would be surprising as well.”
“Hmm, is that so?”
“Yes. So please move separately.”
“Annoying. Very annoying.”
Looking annoyed, Sesenia awkwardly nodded at him.
“But still, as the perfect Matapju who faithfully completes the given task, do so.”
“Alright then, I…”
“But wait. Sesenia Vestel.”
“Yes?”
Stopping Sesenia, who was about to leave, Matapju blocked her way.
“There’s a strange power in this place.”
“A strange power?”
As soon as those words were finished, Matapju began to look around the room here and there.
“I feel the strongest power in two places. Besides that… It’s like there’s a strange power everywhere, as if someone lit incense.”
“What does that…”
Seeing Sesenia’s expression that seemed to completely not understand, he moved on his own.
The first place he arrived at was the bookshelf.
Recently, Sesenia, who had been quite busy, barely read books other than the ones she was used to instead of those on the bookshelf. She chuckled with just a nod.
“This.”
Matapju stood in front of a book. His long fingers pointed to a book with a pure white cover.
“That is…”
As Sesenia faced the book, she felt her heart drop for a moment. It was a problem that should not exist within the current time, a book that should not be here.
“Do you recognize this book?”
“Ah…”
She couldn’t bring herself to say it to Matapju. The book contained the secret of the lineage she discovered when she took over the family for the Marquis. When Sesenia became the head, she discovered this book in the secret library behind the Marquis’s room.
It shouldn’t be here.
“This… shouldn’t be here.”
It was absurd. As if it naturally belonged there, the book was stuck in its place.
Sesenia hastily pulled it out, from the spine to the cover and even the contents of the book were perfectly the same as in the past.
“Ha…”
“I can’t see the contents, though.”
“You can’t see them?”
“Yeah, that’s… it’s protected by some unknown force. Not even touching it is allowed. It’s a force even the master of the Matap can’t touch.”
He looked at the book with interest, as if intrigued, and then moved again.
The next place he reached was Sesenia’s bedroom, precisely the flowers on the nightstand next to the bed.
“This also has the same power.”
“This is…”
It was a flower Teddy gave her a few days ago as a gift. A flower Teddy bought to ward off danger, following the absurd prophecy that the petals would fall when something dangerous was about to happen. And yet, it was the same flower.
“Really…?”
“Yeah? Well, there’s no need to worry since it’s a friendly force for you. But for me, it’s an extremely annoying force. A force that even I, the owner of Matap, can’t do anything about.”
“Ah…”
“That power is like… protecting you as if guarding you. It’s filling this room. Perhaps the power constantly flowing from that necklace is protecting you.”
Pointing directly at his necklace, Matapju made Sesenia’s eyes widen.
“Can you see this too?”
“I can see it. Isn’t that a necklace?”
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
