Few seconds later, Primis smile faded. He turned to Eina and said.
Primis: Wait here. I want to check something.
Eina: Hmm. What is it?
Primis: Nothing much. I will be back in a second.
Eina didn't understand but still nodded her head. As for other four, they realized that something was about to happen.
Mia: H-Hey, boy. You should know that we "Hostess of Fertility" don't like violence here.
Primis: Don't worry I am a peaceful person and love peace. I promise I won't even raise a hand.
Mia: If you understand then good.
Primis then walked towards the private room and entered. As others were wondering what's going to happen, he returns the next second. They all became confused when Primis returned in a second.
Chloe: What did you do, meow~?
But Primis didn't respond and just stand at his previous spot. Since Primis was not responding others become more confused. As for Chloe, she was getting infuriated noticing how Primis was ignoring her.
Chloe: I am asking something, meow~.
Primis: Quiet.
Chloe: Kyaahh~~
Primis said a single word and grabbed her tail again. She broke free from Primis grip and took some distance from him. This time, both even Ryuu and Mia bewildered for different reason.
Ryuu because she can't believe Primis grabbed Chloe tail again and this time in front of everyone. As for Mia because she didn't see when Primis moved his hand. It was just too fast. Even though Mia still had her signature smile on her face but inwardly she had raised her guard to the limit. She knew that if Primis use such speed against her then even she will die without realizing.
'Mia: He is dangerous.'
As for Anya, she already hid behind Ryuu when Primis caught Chloe tail. Primis ignored them and remained silent. Eina also remained silent and stayed by Primis side.
Soma Familia Adventurer: Hey, our order.
Everyone snapped out of their thought and returned to their work leaving Eina and Primis behind. Of course, Chloe and Anya didn't forget to send a glare back at him before leaving.

Time went by.
Adventurers started leaving one-by-one while more were coming. Yet, Primis just ignore it since he was waiting for a private room. After some time, commotion started to occur in the private room which Soma Familia was occupying. Hearing this, Primis raised the corner of his lips, but no one saw it.
Mia: WHAT'S GOING ON? LUNOIRE, CHECK IT.
Lunoire: Yes.
Lunoire entered the room and commotion increased even more. After few seconds, she came out. Though, she had a bad expression on her face. Ryuu, Chloe, Anya, and Mia had already gathered around Primis again. Even though Chloe and Anya still had angry expression on their face, they didn't know why they just can't bring themselves to hate Primis.
Mia: What happened?
Lunoire: They are fighting.
Mia: Why?
Lunoire: They are blaming each other for stealing their money.
Mia: Huh? When was their money got stolen?
After questioning Lunoire, Mia sent a glance at Primis direction. Not only her even Ryuu, Chloe, Anya, and Eina all were glancing at Primis. Lunoire got surprised by their actions and followed where they were looking. There she saw Primis and got stunned since she didn't sense him at all. Nevertheless, she put that thought at the back of her head and hurriedly answered.
Lunoire: They said they had money a second ago. But it disappeared suddenly.
They all took a breath of relief after hearing first-half of the sentence but got confused listening other-half.
'All: Disappears suddenly. How?'
So, they turned their gaze back at Primis again.
Primis: I am not someone who will steal other people money.
'All: Why can't we believe you.'
'Primis: Of Course, I didn't steal their money. I just took back the money which belonged to Lili. So, it's not stealing. Just some compensation.'
Primis nodded inwardly. In truth, when Primis entered their room, he did take away all their money. However, he put them into an illusion making them believe that money was still with them. As a result, when they decided to take it out to pay, illusion wore off and their pouch became empty.
Even after Primis explanation they were still looking at him with suspicious gaze. Primis decided to break the ice using the previous method. He grabbed Chloe and Anya tails again.
Chloe and Anya: Meow~~~~~~~~~~
They hurriedly broke free and ran away. Then they saw some hairs in Primis hand, this caused them they ran away even further. After keeping some distance, they glared back at Primis again.
Chloe: What was that for, meow~?
Anya: What did we did this time, meow~?
Primis: Before you were looking at me like I am your first love. And now you are looking at me with longing expression.
Chloe and Anya: WHAT "FIRST LOVE"? WHAT "LONGING EXPRESSION"? IT WAS CLEARLY A SUSPISCIOUS LOOK BEFORE AND NOW ITS WAS GLARE.
Primis: Is that so? Then---
Saying this Primis raised his hands again. Realizing they were going to lose more hair from their tails, Chloe and Anya hurriedly nodded their head.
Chloe and Anya: No. No. No. You are right. That was clearly a look you give to your fist love and now its longing expression, meow~.
Primis: Are you sure?
Chloe and Anya: YES, WE ARE, MEOW~.
Primis: Ok.
Primis became silent again and didn't continue. Behind him Eina, Ryuu and Mia were have hard time controlling their laughter again.
'All three: "First Love". "Longing Expression". HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA'
Chloe and Anya of course saw this but could only glare at them. They knew if they deny it now then their tails will have to face torture again. As for Lunoire, she became speechless seeing the interaction between Primis, Chloe and Anya.
'Lunoire: When did they become such good friends? Not only Chloe and Anya didn't lash back at him for grabbing their tails, but they even said they are looking at him like they are looking at their first love. When did we start doing comedy to entertain our customers?'
If Chloe and Anya would have known Lunoire thoughts, then they would have growled at her. As for Primis, he would just have ignored it like always. Soon, commotion started to increase between Soma Familia. Mia already an enraged expression on her face as she started walking towards the room.
Mia: Damn them. If they should checked whether they had money before booking a private room and ordering this much food in the first place.
As Mia was walking towards the room with great stride, Primis decided to put oil into flames. He turned to Ryuu, Chloe, Anya, and Lunoire altogether and said.
Primis: I didn't know that "Hostess of Fertility" provide free food service along with private room. I also want to book such free service. I will make sure to tell my friends about it. After all, I don't know any place like "Hostess of Fertility" in the entire Orario who give free stuff even when the 'prices' of the ingredients are 'too' costly.
Hearing this, the mouth of Ryuu, Chloe, Anya, Lunoire and Mia who was already near the door twitched and veins appeared on their forehead. Next, all five of them started releasing their killing intent. Everyone in the hall started to shiver.
Primis stood in front of Eina to guard her from this killing intent. Then Mia opened the door of the private room and entered. Though this time Ryuu, Chloe, Anya, and Lunoire also followed behind.
[Someone or some people are going to get very unlucky.]
Primis just smiled without responding. Soon sound of beating was heard from inside the room. Primis just stayed with Eina and enjoy the sound while a worried expression appeared on Eina's face.
Eina: Don' t you think they should stop now. From the voice of Adventurers, they should be in miserable condition?
'Primis: *sigh* Man, she is too kind.'
[True. But you know what, her kindness reminds of one person. That person is also very kind. And she is also too pure.]
Primis didn't ask since he knew Twilight will tell him anyway.
[Hey, at least ask who I am talking about.]
But silence was the answer Primis gave her.
[Fine. Since you asked soooooo politely I will answer.]
'Primis: .......'
[I am talking about, Emilia. From "Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-"]
Primis narrowed his eyes hearing this. He didn't deny that.
'Primis: Does the world of "Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-" exists this Group?'
[Yes.]
Nodding his head, Primis became quite again while planning his course of action when he will go to that world in future. Still, he didn't forget to reply to Eina.
Primis: They deserve this. Don't forget not only they are eating free food but also booking the private room for free.
Eina: I know. Yet, I am having a feeling that you are somehow responsible for this.
Primis: Why?
Eina: Women Intuition.
Primis lips twitched hearing that. Twilight also didn't let go of this opportunity to make situation worse.
[Women are said to possess a superior intuition called Women's Intuition, an almost psychic — and somewhat frightening — knack for knowing what others are feeling and thinking. Experts say this intuition is based on an ability to read facial expressions and body language. And one more important thing and i.e., women's intuition makes relationships much more difficult than they have to be. Hehehe]
Veins appeared on Primis forehead because of anger but he was able to remain calm thanks to his extraordinary will and responded.
'Primis: Thanks for the information but I didn't ask though.'
[It's my job to tell you even if you didn't ask.]
Ignoring Twilight's comment for now, Primis moved his attention at the room. After some time, sound in the room died down and Mia came out with Ryuu, Chloe, Anya and Lunoire following behind. They were dragging some human-shaped 'garbage' behind them.
Everyone in the hall watched in silence as they threw 'garbage' outside and shivered slightly. To not become next human 'garbage' they double-checked if their money was still with them or not. After finding out that everything was fine, they took a sigh of relief and continued eating their food. Mia approached Primis again once they were done throwing the garbage.
Mia: Boy, just now a room become free. Do you need it?
Primis: Sure.
Then Ryuu, Chloe, Anya, and Lunoire went back into room to clean it before coming out
Mia: Good. Room is all cleaned now you can enter.
Nodding his head Primis entered with Eina. Just when they were about to close the door, Primis smiled to Eina. Everyone saw that smile and thought Primis was just happy that he finally got a room. But not until he said something.
Primis: See, Eina. Didn't I say that "I am a peaceful person and love peace."
Eina didn't give it much thought and nodded. Next, they both entered inside and closed the door. Others didn't mind what Primis meant at first while continuing their work but in the next second they all stopped altogether, and their eyes opened wide in shock. They looked at each other and could see fear in each other's eyes. Not only Ryuu, Chloe, Anya and Lunoire but even Mia was same.
'All Five: We have been had.'
Exactly. Primis knew all along that Soma Familia will be present in "Hostess of Fetility" because in plot they always spent the money they earned and stole from Lili here. He didn't want to resort to violence in front of Eina, so he decided to make someone else do it in his stead.
First, he grabbed Chloe and Anya tails to incite them. Since they can't see Primis movement they realized that they were not his match and kept their angry inward. But Primis kept on increase their angry again and again. In between he also distracted them from knowing his scheme. He also made everyone think that he had no idea that Soma Familia was here.
He made everyone laugh by saying "First Love" and "Longing expression" and so on. So, when he put the oil into flames saying "Hostess of Fertility" provide free food and room service, they finally snapped and changed the target of their rage from Primis to Soma Familia. Ryuu and Lunoire who remained calmer than Chloe and Anya also didn't sense it at all because of Primis distractions.
And so Primis succeed in making Soma Familia into 'garbage' without even raising his hand. Now all five on them were looking at the closed door of the room in which Primis was. They felt chill down their spine. They never thought he would make all five of them into doing his work and they didn't have realized it if he didn't give them hint just now. They all gulped their saliva. As for Mia...…
'Mia: Correction. He is not just dangerous but the most dangerous I have ever seen. I need to make sure not to make enemy out of him otherwise I won't even realize why and how I die. I need to inform this to Lady Freya as soon as possible because this is the first time, I have seen someone who is both Physically and Mentally strong.'

As for Primis, he was enjoying his time chatting with Eina. Well, to be more specific he was as silent as always while Eina's the one talking. When they were alone in the room, Eina started talking non-stop about her trying day today.
How one adventurer after another kept on coming to gather information about him and how she didn't even get time to eat Lunch today and so on and so forth. Primis didn't say anything and let Eina release all her frustration. Sometime later, Eina calmed down and Primis passed a glass of water to her.
Eina: Thanks.
After drinking she put the glass down. Then she looked at Primis with embarrassment.
Eina: Sorry for making you listen to all this.
Primis: How are you feeling now?
Seeing Primis was not angry, Eina took a sigh of relief and smile reappeared on her face again.
Eina: Fresh.
Primis: Good. Then let's order.
When Primis said so, Lunoire entered to take their order. Primis knew that they are outside and waiting for him to give order. Lunoire took the order and left. Even though Lunoire looked same as always, she was on full guard against him. Primis smiled slightly and remained silent. Soon their order came, and they both ate it with again Eina the one talking while Primis listening.
Once they were done, Primis put the money on the table and left the room. When they came out, he was greeted by the smiling faces of Ryuu, Chloe, Anya and Lunoire. Though, Primis can tell it was a forced smile. Still, he didn't say and move towards the entrance. He knew that Mia must have already notified Freya by now, so he wanted to leave before she arrived.
All Four: Please come again.
All four of them bowed towards Primis and Eina. Eina also responded by bowing towards them. As for Primis,
Chloe and Anya: Meow~
He grabbed Chloe and Anya tails again. But before they could resort and broke free, he let go and put his hand on top of their head and started patting them gently. They got shocked because of his action. However, when they looked up, they fell into trance.
Primis was patting their head and ears with small smile on his face. This was not the smile which sent chill down their spine but a gentle one. Not only Chloe and Anya, even Ryuu and Lunoire also fell into daze. It should be known that yesterday and even today till now Primis almost always had indifferent expression on his face. They had never seen any other expression on his face. So, it shocked them. Primis knew that he had wronged these two cats too much today, so he decided to pat they as an apology.
Primis: It's not good to remain this stiff when you sending someone, ok?
Chloe and Anya: Mn.
Chloe and Anya nodded and looked down. Though, anyone could see their tails wagging right left, showing that they were enjoying his patting. After some time, Primis removed his hand and left with Eina but not before nodding at Ryuu and Lunoire too. As they saw his back going further and further, all four of them bowed towards his direction again. And this time there was a genuine smile on their face.
