"Linos of Agartha, it's !
The man in front of has a blank expression on his face. I would like to congratulate myself on my brilliant phrasing, but it seems that this man doesn't understand it. Too bad.
I had been transferred from the farm of Agartha University, where the Serloites had been, to an empty room in the Agartha Military Headquarters. For so reason, the room feels chilly and cold, but I try not to worry too much about it and decide to confront the man in front of .
"Well, I have a pretty good idea, what are you doing there?"
"Wow, I'm ......."
"Oh no, you don't have to talk."
I activate my appraisal skill on the man in front of . Naturally, I have him warded and deprived of his freedom.
"...... What a man!"
I was beyond angry and disgusted. For it was no exaggeration to say that this man's life was a life of blood, sweat, and sen, as the saying goes.
For this man, won seem to be the beings to satisfy his desires and to be used when he is done with them. He did not have a normal relationship between a man and a woman, in which they respect each other and share their love for each other. He simply dominates won and discards them when they are no longer of use to him. In a sense, he was a man with an easy-to-understand policy.
He is an amazing man in many ways, but the most amazing thing is that he never received any kind of retaliation from the won he dumped, even though he loved them so much and left them in a ss. Either he is good at breaking up with them, or there is sothing about him that makes them give up even trying to retaliate: ....... I don't really want to know, but he is definitely not a man I would want my daughters around.
The man in front of is trying desperately to say sothing, but I can't move my body because I'm warded. The man's face is becoming more and more distorted.
Your na is Mataka, is it not? You did not co to Agartha on Vieille's orders, did you? Ron Esrotel ......? Sohow, this guy seems to have so quirks too. ......"
The man's eyes are opening more and more. As I watch him, I continue to say more.
"Did you take any asures before you ca here? ...... I see. You thought no one in Agartha would know your face. You are more naive than I thought. You'd better get an accurate estimate of your opponent's strength or you'll end up dead."
The man is trying desperately to speak, but he cannot open his mouth, so all he can do is shake his body.
"......It seems that no one besides you is trying to get close to Miss Serloitte. That's a relief. So you were the only big rat.
"......gghh......gghh......"
"Yes. Then I guess I should have gone with "Arajishi Otonosuke" instead of "Bentenko". He's no ordinary rat, you know... like ....... No, you'd miss him then, wouldn't you?"
Mataka looks horrified when I laugh at him. It seems that he does not understand a word I am saying at all.
"Well, now that the jokes are over, let's see what we're going to do with you, shall we? I could deport you to Vieille, but that would surely kill you. Considering what you've done so far, that might not be a bad idea, but sothing tells it's not. ....... Hold on a minute."
I left Mataka behind and transferred to the dwarven workshop in the capital of Agartha.
"Oh ...... oh. This is Mr. Linos ......."
An old dwarf greets reverently. He seems quite confused, as he had not been notified in advance.
I'm sorry to just barge in on you like this. Is there a ...... Sidhee here?"
"Oh. The great princess...... no, if you are the princess, she is in her workshop. Shall I call her for you? ......"
Oh, no. It's all right. I understand."
With that I walk into the workshop. The workshop where Sadie usually works was the last room in the house.
"Sadie, I'm coming in."
"Wait a minute!"
I knocked on the door and was about to enter when I heard Sadie's voice coming from inside. I waited for her to co in, thinking she was changing her clothes or sothing, but she was completely silent.
"What's up, Sadie? You want to co in?"
"Hey, wait a minute! ...... Wow!"
"Sadie!"
When I opened the door, I found Sidhi buried under the paper. I rush over and help Sidhi out.
"Are you okay?"
"ugh ......"
While carrying her in my arms, I looked around and saw that what was buried in the ground seed to be a design docunt or sothing.
"What's wrong?"
"No. ....... I intuitively sensed that Master Linos was coming, so I decided to clean the room ......."
They cleaned up the room in a hurry, but they just piled them up and they fell down without a trace, it seems.
"Well, ...... you can take them down, if you like."
Sadie is blushing and muttering. I cough and set her down on the floor.
"It's unusual to see you in the workshop, Mr. Linos.
"No, Sadie told about Serloitte, but when I went to check on her, I found that she was almost attacked by a man.
"I knew it!"
"We captured the man and now he is under house arrest in a room at the Agartha headquarters. What do you think I should do?"
"Ummm."
Sidi puts the index finger of his right hand under his chin and thinks about sothing. After a while, he slowly nodded his head and looked at .
"I think it would be better to leave it to Matkal.
"To Mato?"
"Yes. Intuitively, I think Matkal will be able to put it all together."
"Okay, okay. I'll talk to Mato about it.
"Um, ...... Mr. Linos."
"Yes?"
"If that's the case, I think a reminder would have been fine. ......"
"Ah."
That's true, that's true. I looked away for a mont and then quickly turned my attention back to Sadie.
"Well, yes, that's true, but sohow I wanted to see Sadie's face.
"......"
Sidhi turned over, his face bright red, and lightly poked my arm with his fist.
I was so surprised.
"...... got it."
I moved to Matkal's place and imdiately told her about the man I had captured. Matocal thought for a while and then called a soldier who was standing by and ordered him to call Lafayence.
"Why the general?"
"It was the man who captured you, wasn't it? It is best to leave n in charge of n."
"Is that how it's supposed to be?"
Matkal looks at with a cool expression as I am puzzled by his unexpected answer.
"No, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
A few monts later, Lafayence entered the room. Although he has retired from active duty, he does not look old at all. Perhaps it was because he had been devoting himself to the education of young soldiers, working with them day after day.
When he heard Matkal's story, he smiled and nodded broadly.
"What do you have in mind for this man, Mr. Linos?"
"That's the point, General. I thought about deporting him back to Klimiana, but that would surely get him killed. I don't an to be warmongering, but it just doesn't seem right. ......"
"Mm. Your sense is right, Mr. Linos. The man should not be sent back to Klimiana. Let take care of him.
General ......, what in the world do you intend to do?"
It's settled. You'll be re-educated as a man.
"Re-education?"
It is outrageous to treat won like objects. It's unbecoming of a man. I'm going to teach that man how to be a man in every fiber of my being. I can't say without seeing his face, but he must have a good appearance. If so, he can be reborn as a gentleman.
"So ...... is that so?"
"Hey, don't worry. You're right. ...... two years. Let's see you turn that man into a gentleman in two years. I'll take care of everything.
Lafayence is puffing his chest out. As I watch him, I whisper to myself in a small voice.
"This is going to be one hell of a man school. ......"
