Diamond looked at the dam with a smile on her face. It was quite large, even bigger than the farm on the first farm.
With such a big dam, there would be sufficient water to last for generations, as long as the water seed remained seeded there.
Foreseeing such a future, Diamond, without feeling bothered by Cain’s presence, flicked her hand and a blue crystal flew to the center of the dam before vanishing.
This was the first time that Cain was seeing something like that. It looked magical and ethereal.
He had always known that his boss did something to the dam for it to never go dry. He just didn’t know what exactly she did. And yet on this day, he saw her doing it.
He didn’t know what that blue crystal was, but seeing it disappearing after entering the dam, his heart thumped like crazy as his face flushed.
’She trusts me fully!’ he felt so excited, he looked at her, trembling with joy.
Diamond sensed a gaze on her. She couldn’t help but look to the side, only to find Cain looking at her with a reverent gaze. Seeing that, a smile blossomed on her face as her eyes squinted.
"Cain, whatever happens here, remain between us. You understand that, right?" she said, a mysterious glint in her eyes.
Thud.
Cain didn’t respond in the way she expected, but suddenly fell on his knees. It made Diamond who had never faced such a situation to be dumbfounded.
"You_" Diamond raised her hand, wanting to speak, but then Cain cut her words midway.
"Miss, thank you for trusting me. I swear with the name of my deity that I will serve you always with fealty and will never betray this trust you have placed on me," Cain began to earnestly swear his allegiance. It made Diamond speechless.
Cain, seeing her silent, felt like his words didn’t reach her sincerely, so h continued pouring his heart.
And since he was on his knees, the construction guys seeing that particular scene halted for a moment as they talked amongst themselves.
"Do you think that the lady boss is perhaps dissatisfied with him?"
"It should be the case. Otherwise, he shouldn’t be kneeling like that."
"Tsk. Tsk. Money surely knows how to make the world go around."
"Stop yapping like women and get back to work. Do you want to be the next people kneeling?"
And that ended the fiasco on that side.
Returning to Diamond’s side, she was still listening to Cain’s allegiance on the surface but currently engaged in a divine sense conversation with the space fairy.
’Are you sure that it’s alright like that?’
[Um. He is a good seed. He is trustworthy. Besides, if he betrays you or has such thoughts, we can just erase his memories and those of the people that he tells. It’s that simple.]
Diamond sighed when she heard that. ’I guess I can only continue to trust him and accept this allegiance. It will be helpful.’
