Hey, Im Vector. An ordinary adventurer you can find everywhere.
Eh? Dont like it? Im not lying at all Ah, you knew? I see.
Hmm! Yes, I am Vector Georgius Ostrat. Forrly the second prince of the Kingdom of Georgius, presently the Duke of Ostrat.
Sorry, can I stop now? I dont like talking about this.
What did I want to say again? Oh, Ill talk about my life as an adventurer. As you can see, being an adventurer is a way for to hide my identity from the world. I have various circumstances Well, its not that complicated.
When it ca to royalty and the older prince, I frequently experienced many cases where my life was targeted because of the right to succeed to the throne. To put it simply, most people didnt like and just wanted to quickly beco a subject of the state.
Since I received the royal education, I understood my obligations and responsibilities, and I intended to fulfill them. Even so, I was a little tired of the political conflict or the plotting In the first place; I had no interest in the throne, so I gave it up.
When I was twelve years old, I hid my identity and started working as an adventurer. When I reached adulthood at fifteen years old, I served the kingdom, receiving the Duke title. However, I never thought I would end up fighting the Lord of Winter right after that
So nobles didnt take sides to the political affairs and got along with everyone, abandoning the right of inheritance of their family and succeeded using their own ability. I wanted to beco soone like that, and it went better than I expected.
However, I couldnt completely abscond the right to succeed to the throne, and thats sothing I was still worried about.
Territory managent? I had no particular problem there. I had them ceded a fertile land from the territory under the direct control of the royal family, and my aides were excellent My partner originally grew up with as my foster brother. I could trust him with things like this. He looked like he was going to die due to a lack of manpower, though.
Eh? How could I afford to beco an adventurer with no aim in my life? No, my main purpose was to scout human resources to solve the labor shortage.
I had to find a reliable partner since they were going to be my subordinate hired in my territory, right? Plus, I could help the commoners who were in trouble by becoming an adventurer, killing two birds with one stone And I wasnt enjoying my valuable freedom to the fullest, okay? But I couldnt say I didnt appreciate it.
I frequently went back to the territory to watch the situation, so its okay. My partner was excellent, and I kept increasing the talented people, so I could be free for the next few years no. Im going to be an adventurer. Its not like I was playing around, okay?
Besides, I also caught a few rchants who were doing dishonest business secretly And also several corrupt reeves
Speaking of which, when I returned to the royal castle the other day, Sir Eisenstein, who I t after a long ti, called an as or sothing like that. What does that an? Maybe I should ask him when I et him next ti.
I was currently working with a few colleagues.
Most of them were younger than , but I had good chemistry with one of them Hmm, maybe it was a few years ago? I didnt like how my na beca popular after the Lord of Winters subjugation. That only made my surroundings noisy. The story started when I t them, when I was working in the territory of Mubarro, away from the royal capital.
He was called Neil, a young adventurer who got along with . A lot of things happened, so I worked together with him.
At first, I talked with Neil to decide on the policy, but I beca the leader before I knew it. When I realized that, I could only laugh bitterly.
That being said, I wasnt always working with them. Actually, I also joined several other parties. My original purpose was to gather human resources, so I had to et many people. But well, I mainly worked with Neil and his team.
Anyway, let introduce them for now.
First, Neil.
He wanted to be a swordsman. I taught him the regular style of swordsmanship, but he was good. Even if he only trained for a little over a year, he could think for himself and work hard. If he keeps going like this, he most likely would be quite strong.
Next was Collie.
She was Neils sister how could I say this? She was handy, willing to do anything, but she didnt excel in anything. She beca the scout for now, but Id like her to use a spear to switch with the middle guard to balance the team. I just hope she could stop looking at amorously like that.
The last one was Tess.
Tess was Neils lover. An alchemist who ca to their village a long ti ago taught her a little, so she could make up a prescription, even if not much. Thanks to that, the party could reduce the cost of recovery dicine a bit.
She was also interested in magic after learning alchemy, so I taught her magic occasionally when I have ti.
They were all farrs, but they were better than I expected. Especially Neil. If he keeps improving like this, I might leave one of the units to him. The latter two were it would depend on their future growth.
Ah, actually, besides these three, I had two more mbers a few months ago.
One was Irvine.
He was an archer, an excellent rearguard who could also beco a scout. He used to be the third son of a noble of lower status
The other was Gilliam.
He was a warrior equipped with a large shield, a tanker? But thanks to him, the battle beca stable.
I had invited these two to be my subordinates. They were happy to accept my offer. After that, I talked to Neil a bit, but he seed to be worried about various things. Well, we still had ti left, so he could take his ti to consider it.
Ah, and I was also interested in a kid.
I heard about her from Neil before. She was a witch who lived in the forest nearby Neils ho village, who was also an excellent alchemist.
She could even make a dicine to cure a highly lethal epidemic in just a day.
I was only thinking of eting her if I had a chance. But a few months later, after I t her, I wanted to rope her in.
She took care of the orphans in the town who were working as adventurers, improved their life, defeated an orc alone, and collected a sizable amount of herbs every ti I heard she also introduced a dish no one had ever seen before at the inn.
Irvine and Gilliam also said she had helped them before.
They took a request to subdue a group of ogres. But when they went to fulfill it, a lord actually commanded the group, putting the subjugation team into a difficult position.
They were almost dead after being chased by a ferocious orc. She was the one who helped them.
However, there was one problem in recruiting her. It was her relationship with Neil.
Apparently, Neil had offended her when she was going ho. Neil also had a hard ti adapting to the situation, so he bothered her a lot.
Well, Neil didnt seem to be aware of it, but he clearly favored her. I think thats why his attitude toward her had changed.
The girl in question was called Ren I heard a lot of stories and talked to her a bit, but she seed to have a very troubleso personality.
Its better to gradually deepen the relationship than to force it. With that in mind, I pretended to et her by chance and greeted her whenever we t, but she vanished from the town during my gradual approach.
