Episode 45
##045
The lady-in-waiting smiled at Charlotte, who had followed her.
Unlike his usual expressionless and stern appearance, he seems very friendly.
“Charlotte. It’s been a long time.”
“yes! Maid Maid. I didn’t expect to see you again like this. hehehehe!”
Is it because it’s nice to see you again? Charlotte cried and tried to be hugged by the maid.
“stop! stop.”
Stupid Charlotte.
“Your clothes are very dirty. You’re not trying to hug me like that, are you?”
“lol. I have some business on the way.”
It was because I was rolling on the ground while arguing with the second Gais.
In a way, it was safe to say that it was the mark of the victor’s glory.
“It’s a job. Well, it must have been a lot of work to serve the young master alone. Even if your clothes are so dirty, you won’t have time to change them… I didn’t mean to let you go like that… … .”
“That’s not it. How well the young master treats you!!”
It was sincere.
As a lady-in-waiting, it was probably the best treatment in the world.
“okay. Bocchan, he was a good-hearted person from the beginning. I wish there were more maids to help you though… tell me if you need I’ll see if any of the maids have children to follow.”
Handmaids and maids are completely different.
Maid-in-waiting is from aristocratic background and serves to assist the aristocrat with light household chores.
Looked like a secretary.
On the other hand, maids are from commoners and take on all sorts of chores.
“no!! It’s enough for me alone. Uncle Sebas is there too. How delicious Mr. Cooker’s food is.”
Even if there was a class difference between maids and maids, Charlotte was unwilling to see other women flirting with Lian.
“okay? what… Then you can’t force it. after… By the way, what the hell happened?”
“yes… ? hmm… A little bit of work has happened… … .”
Charlotte is too busy to explain.
“There is no need to elaborate. just curious Listening to the story of the superiors, I heard that you are a war hero… do you know anything This is the content of the specialty.”
The maid handed a piece of paper to Charlotte.
This was not particularly a secret among the employees.
Rumors have already spread.
Of course, I didn’t believe it right away.
Of course, there were misunderstandings. The contents of the professional written on paper… … .
[The Countess of Atronne will respectfully greet Lian Leon, the hero of the war against the Thrang Empire. And I will cooperate as much as possible.]
Because it’s over.
This was the limit for long-distance communication today.
It will probably take a few more days for regular contact to come again.
Of course, since it was on display right now, Ingleson Kingdom couldn’t afford to spread telecommunication magic in the provinces.
Even in that content, the wizards’ hair must have been plucked out to reduce the number of characters as much as possible to save energy on long-distance communication devices.
“huh? That’s right. war hero.”
The maid also saw Lian earlier.
Nothing has changed, and I still feel restless.
Of course, Lian was curious and looked around.
“after… What do I expect from you?”
I just wanted to ask.
From the beginning, Charlotte was a child with many blind spots.
Plus, since he was kind to Lian, he’ll see everything positively.
I just wanted to ask.
“ruler. These are clothes for you and your guests to change into. take it If you have any trouble, come to me anytime.”
“Yes! Maid-in-waiting.”
The lady-in-waiting looked at Charlotte, who smiled brightly, with a worried expression.
When he first entered the palace, he was a child who had accidents every day.
Even now, like a child brought to the waterside, he was anxious and anxious.
“Lulu~ Lal~ La~ Maid of honor. Handmaid’s clothes~!”
She changed her clothes and sang.
Of course, Charlotte was given the maid’s outfit because of the maid’s misunderstanding.
“My combat uniform is a maid’s uniform~! I’m a battle maid~!”
Charlotte, dressed in a maid’s uniform, felt better as she remembered the old days.
She was a great warrior, but there was no need to be particularly offended.
She’s a maid. As an escort knight. Because I was also a watchman… Perhaps the maid’s uniform was just one of many work clothes.
Clap!
Charlotte opened the door boldly and entered and shouted.
“The clothes are delivered~!! Come on, take one.”
Whiririk! flutter!
Clothes were thrown at each other with great flair.
Surprisingly, the clothes fell neatly in front of the people without being disturbed.
“Shall I change you?!”
The only thing left in her hand is Lian’s clothes.
“no. I will refuse I will decline the refusal of refusal.”
“Chwi. I used to change a lot in the past. I’ll give you a bath too.”
“That can’t be!!”
Ryan shook his head.
No matter how much she doesn’t know much about life in this world, the ladies-in-waiting don’t tend to take care of baths.
I don’t know if it’s a maid.
“Why are you so late?”
“I had a little interview with the lady-in-waiting after a while. heh.”
“Hmm? what interview?”
“therefore… … .”
As if it was no big deal, Charlotte relayed the conversation she had with the maid to Lian in detail.
Hearing this, Ryan’s lips slowly began to rise.
information was controlled.
“Big! Ingleson you sensible people! good. very good!!”
I wouldn’t have intended anything.
It’s just that due to the nature of long-distance communication, the detail has fallen.
“Why are you like that? young master… … .”
“Heh heh. I suddenly thought of something funny. Oh. The time has already come like this. Everyone take care of it quickly. Going to eat soon. hehehe!”
Ryan hummed and urged.
The vice-captain felt something fighting.
“Again again!!! Little boy, what are you up to? This is not your mother.”
“The vice-captain uncle knows who is the devil’s child.”
“So what is it this time?”
“My mother’s family is probably the strongest here on Airy Island. It’s too strong, so it’s hard to get rid of it… … .”
He was mobilized in the colonial war, and his strength was greatly diminished.
Thanks to this, successors died one after another in the New World.
Of course, the situation was the same for the other counts of Airy Island, so the average was lowered.
“What is that… ruler… Wait you!! I don’t know what it is, but you’re a child of Satan… … .”
“What kind of praise is that? hehehe.”
Ryan started to lead with his nostrils wide open.
Fighting among cousins would be the icing on the cake.
Sometimes there are good items.
“I don’t have any allies who don’t listen to me, but I can’t!”
If you run out of strength and lose your position as the strongest and mediator of Airy Island, you will become dependent on yourself.
That means you will have the best allies called bloodlines.
angle to angle.
On the way to the restaurant, Lian finds the second Guy.
“Oh! It’s my brother~!!”
He jumped up and waved his hands.
On the other hand.
“uh… uh. okay. little brother.”
The second Gais’s face was disgusted.
Should I say that my position has changed from before?
Should I say that the host has been evangelized?
Rather, Lian seemed to be the successor of this region.
“Are you on your way to dinner?”
“Yes… … .”
“Then let’s go together. hehehe.”
First of all, I think it would be possible to sell the trap by roasting and boiling the second one, but I was worried about what to do with the first one.
Should I go directly to his manor (Baron’s territory)? The moment you think
“Guys!! Ino Ohm!!!”
A man reminiscent of a brown bear strode forward and grabbed the second Geis by the throat.
‘Situationally, he’s the first.’
This is the home of Count Artrone.
Who dares to grab the collar of the only two heirs?
There is only one person who can do that.
“oh my. older brother! Let go of this.”
“joy!! Hey. If you scrape off the potatoes of our territory, what did you mean to eat my people? My estates are suffering because of the price!”
“If the price rises, why don’t you release the potatoes stored in your brother’s warehouse at a high price? You can lend it at a high interest rate.”
“Are you saying that? If it’s that good, go rake up the potatoes in your estate!”
For reference, Airy Island mainly grows potatoes, not wheat.
They also grow other crops, but there was nothing like potatoes.
There was a reason for the high unit productivity, but it grows well anywhere, the growing period is short, and the labor force is merciful compared to wheat.
In addition, it is an indispensable crop for fallow land.
If potatoes were used well, it was possible to grow three crops in a year.
In addition, Airlie Island in particular was heavily exploited by the nobility.
It wasn’t because the nobles really wanted it, because Airy Island itself was like a colony, so not only the people but also the nobles were pretty harsh compared to the main island.
In addition to the taxes and soldiers that must be paid to the kingdom of Airi, they also use customs to steal additional money… … .
“Ah~ I’ve already scratched my estate once. Hyung-nim, you should also scratch before I scratch.”
“Did you say that!”
“Why are you so angry!”
Gais made an expression of incomprehension.
Are you still iron? Is the heart bad?
The frustrated first shouted.
“The reason why we Gaels (Isle of Aire) do not stand up is because the traditional aristocrats of Isle of Aire keep the minimum line. If we disappear, we will take our place. Because we think we’re better than the nobles of the mainland of Ingleson. however… you!!”
“older brother. What are those people afraid of! There are hardly any Mana users, let alone Awakeners.”
The second was sarcastic.
It seems that the idea of the chosen people has settled quite large in my head.
No matter how much I hate him, he’s my half-brother.
“You stupid bastards. Gentry guys, even if they are not nobles, are the ones who will stick to the people’s side when something happens. It must be an opportunity to rise in status for them.”
The real main force of the war is the wealthy commoners.
Awakening anyway, even if you have talent, it’s difficult with normal financial resources, but making a mana user is at least something that even a wealthy commoner’s family can do.
The very mana user uses is the horseman who is the center of the Persian formation and determines the outcome of infantry battles.
The Persian formation is a way to run an army by dividing it into square regiments of about 2,000 men, consisting of long spears on the outside and horsemen on the inside.
“joy! If that’s frustrating, why don’t you go to the floating ship pier now? By now, my men should have sold them all to the Ingleson merchants.”
The second shook off the collar of the first and stepped back.
Of course, the first one glared at him like he was going to kill him.
“This guy!!”
nasty atmosphere.
Then the strangers who come late to the first eyes.
At first, I thought it was just the second subordinate, but upon closer inspection, it wasn’t.
Among them, I see a familiar face.
“Lian? Why are you here?”
When the first one tries to approach Lian, Charlotte naturally blocks the way.
Due to the recent incident at the floating ship pier, she was able to completely relax even in places that did not seem dangerous.
“Charlotte? While I haven’t seen you, your off-white color has increased.”
A small and delicate girl who contrasts with the gigantic bear-like figure.
For reference, the first one wasn’t particularly s*xual.
But, I’m just keeping an eye on Charlotte’s future… … .
“I will not allow further access. First, young boy.”
“what?”
The first eyebrow twitched slightly.
According to the evaluations of those around him, he doesn’t have a particularly bad personality, but he’s a little quick-tempered and sometimes goes out of his way first.
The old days when Lian stayed here at the count’s house.
If the second one was mentally harassing Lian, the first one was impatient, so it was said that he sometimes stabbed Lian.
Of course, he belatedly apologized whenever that happened, but it wasn’t to the point of being particularly forgiving.
At least for Charlotte.
“What are you going to do?”
“I won’t forgive you if it’s even your fingertips on the boy’s collar.”
Charlotte, unlike usual, raised her voice seriously. However, it did not raise the energy of the spirits.
It’s obviously hostile behavior.
You can’t recklessly hostile without Rian’s permission.
It is difficult to forget that this place is their last name.
“Puhahahahaha. You’re still a crazy kid. Just be my concubine. It’s still not too late.”
The first one burst into laughter because it was absurd, but the second one who saw it sang joy inwardly.
‘Look at you too. ha ha ha.’
First of all, it seems that she hasn’t properly grasped Charlotte’s skills yet.
Rumor has it that the first one is on the verge of a second awakening, but that fierce lady-in-waiting was a mid-level warrior who had already undergone a second awakening.
It is said that size is important in a fight, but it is mostly only at the level of the same class.
If they face off, Charlotte has a very good chance of winning.
no. win unconditionally
“tongue… older brother!”
an imminent situation.
Ryan stepped in and softened the atmosphere a little.
