A mysterious place surrounded by a grove all around.
At the edge, there was a small spring with clear water bubbling up.
The sweetscented tree fruits around stimulated the salivary glands.
A passing deer stopped in its tracks, perked up its ears, gave Evelia and Caron a look, and then bolted off somewhere.
Even Caron, who often climbed the mountain, had to admire the beautiful scenery.
Seeing that even the monster’s aura wasn’t detected by his sharp senses, it seemed the mountain itself was very neat and clean.
“Let’s set up here! A secret base!”
Evelia dashed into the middle of the meadow, turned halfway, and looked back at Caron and Undine.
With the scattered petals clinging to Evelia’s golden hair, she looked like a little fairy dancing in a flower garden.
Yes, if the little master could just laugh like that, he felt like he could be at the forefront, waving his sword to make the entire world the young lady’s secret base.
Caron smiled back at his master.
Oh, our chick contractor is so pretty, so pretty. Even me, a spirit, was utterly fascinated. Undine shook his head.
Evelia, standing among the flowers, took off her teddy bearshaped backpack, searched for something, and then took out a black necklace.
“Is that the necklace that the Viscount Cassis gifted you?”
“Yeah, right!”
The gift that the Viscount sent to Evelia, who had had a bad experience at his own birthday party a week ago, was a magical item that couldn’t be valued in money.
The necklace that only a magician of the Viscount’s caliber could make, could allow you to teleport to any coordinate you wanted.
There was a limitation that only two coordinates could be entered, and it was too heavy to wear around the neck.
But for Evelia now, it was the most necessary item of all.
Evelia intended to carve her room and secret base into the necklace.
So that she could freely go between the secret base and her room anytime.
“Ugh… like this…”
As the viscount had taught her, she placed the necklace on the ground and pressed it down, and a faint light flashed from the necklace.
“It worked!!”
Evelia picked up the twinkling necklace, put it around her neck, quickly stood up from the ground and exclaimed.
“Now we need to build a house!”
A house… a house?
Leaving a dumbfounded Caron behind, Evelia, with her small and short hands on her chin, pondered how to build a shack, then first returned to the Duke’s mansion.
She went to the knight Artina, who was at the training ground, with the world’s most pathetic eyes and whined, ‘I found a secret base, but there is no shack, and it’s certain that a wild animal will bite me.’
When the knights heard that a wild animal would bite the young lady, they shouted, ‘If there’s no shack to protect the young lady, it can’t be!’
For about two weeks after that, they attended the secret base every day, moved logs, cut them, nailed them, raised the roof, and generously used their highly praised sword skills to trim the logs.
To Undine’s eyes, there was no better fool in the world.
At this point, Undine had a question.
[But chick, it’s a secret base, is it okay that everyone knows the place like this? Those humans will keep coming to your secret base?]“……!”
Evelia’s eyes widened at the aspect she hadn’t thought of at all.
To Undine’s eyes, there was no better fool in the world.
Anyway, the next target of Evelia, who turned the Knights upside down, was the cooks.
“I will take it to the secret base! Um… bread, and cookies, and chocolates…!”
Preservation is important if you want to keep it in the secret base for a long time! Considering how our young lady eats, even if it’s spoiled, she’ll just eat it.
The cooks sold the natural preservative ‘Lishian’ grass, which is popular among adventurers and priced skyhigh, without sparing the name of the house to buy it.
In addition to that, the bed sponsorship was her brothers, the desk sponsorship was Elysia.
To prevent monsters from invading, the boundary magic sponsorship was Hugo.
The seeds that would grow well if planted around, the sponsorship was gardener Glen.
Evelia had thoroughly milked every person from the Duchy for their cooperation.
While it was questionable whether it could still be called a secret base as everyone from the Duchy knew its location and appearance, Evelia’s secret base was completed in the desired location and form anyway.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]Evelia walked into the log cabin of her secret base, humming a tune.
These days, she was stamping her attendance at the secret base once every two days.
Evelia would suddenly teleport to the secret base using her magic necklace while she was inside the room, which made Caron, her guard, feel like dying.
Today, Evelia walked into the secret base holding a basket full of deliciously baked cookies, soon tilted her head.
“Where has it gone…?”
The bottle of orange juice she had saved to drink with her cookies today was empty. She was sure she had left half!
“Did I drink it all…?”
Had she finished the orange juice?
Her memory was hazy.
She had had many experiences of food disappearing into her stomach in no time. She must have drunk it all! Thinking so, she pulled out a new bottle of grape juice.
Before going back to the Duchy.
In order to figure out how much snack to bring tomorrow, she confirmed that she had left half a bottle of grape juice, and ten cookies were left.
After carefully covering the basket, Evelia thought she wouldn’t need to bring new juice and cookies tomorrow, and turned her necklace.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]“It’s gone!!”
It was gone. It was definitely gone.
The half bottle of grape juice, the ten cookies, all were gone.
The bread and jerky that were filled in the grain warehouse, which she had painstakingly gathered in case of an emergency, had also disappeared a lot.
“…….”
This is my secret base……. It hasn’t been made for even two weeks yet……
“Sob…….”
Evelia, who turned her necklace again and returned to the Duchy, went down to the first floor with heavy steps.
As soon as they saw her slumped shoulders and teary eyes, Arkan and Cedric, as well as the Artina Knights who were playing an annoying game, rushed over.
“Our child! What’s wrong! What happened!!”
“Young lady!!”
Everyone flocked to Evelia and began to comfort her. Evelia, who had her secret base robbed in an instant, became even more upset.
“Sob…… there’s a thief……. in the secret base……!”
“A thief? Come here, let’s see. What did the thief steal?”
Cedric, who heard that a thief had entered Evelia’s secret base, held Evelia’s cheeks and looked into her eyes as he asked.
“Ten cookies, half a bottle of grape juice, and jerky in the grain warehouse…….”
Is it really a thief? Not a baby pig? Exactly like our little lady?
To Arkan, Cedric, and the Knights, it was strange for a thief to only eat while leaving all the expensive ornaments.
It seemed more like a wild animal than a thief.
“Sob…… if caught, won’t be spared……!”
But to the owner of the secret base, whether it was an animal or a human, a food thief was a food thief.
Must catch and spank it!
Evelia clenched her fists tightly and muttered.
The hunt begins, food thief!

Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
