7th day, 8th month, the year 2812. Western Continent Calendar: (Towards the peninsula 4)
Geez, did we really have to welco him like that?
While drinking black tea, Earl Salzberg spat out dissatisfied words. And his wife was sitting in front of him while listening to him
The figure of the person who had welcod Ryouma full of smiles has gone, replaced with a dissatisfied expression.
His face now shows the arrogance and contempt for commoners.
Lets see He did embrace the maid, for now, do you want to hear the result?
Hearing she said that with a smile on her face, the Earl scowled at her in irritation.
I dont need it! I laid my eyes first on that girl you know that right? Yet, why did you give her over to that upstart!
It was natural for the Earl to get upset, after all the maid girl he aid at was given to soone else.
Isnt it fine? There are a lot of other maids you have here Besides, you will just get bored of her after one month, no?
This and that are different matters! Even if I get bored and throw her away, I cant stand giving my things to soone else! Furthermore, shes a girl that Ive not yet laid my hands on, you know that? Geez, and she was that pretty!
Even if the Earl expresses his wrath, nothing can be done now.
Yuria feels disgusted but does not show it on her face.
(*Sigh* I wonder why this mans habits are so terrible. He can get as many prostitutes or slaves as he wants, but he always seeks out innocent girls that have little to no experience Besides, he will undoubtedly sell them to the slave trader after embracing them in bed once or twice)
She looked at her husband who only likes virgin girls with cold eyes.
However, she tried her best to hide her true emotions.
In order for her to keep living, she needs Earl Salzberg.
After the Earl complained for a while longer, his mind seems to have cald down.
He took a deep breath and relaxed his body deep into the sofa.
Well, whatever I have no interest in a used woman that has been touched by commoners However, why did you tell him about the mine? Wont that create suspicions instead?
His eyes that had been previously clouded by lust turned sharp.
Although he is the worst type of human, in regards to being a ruler and commander he was soone excellent.
If he was not like that then he wouldnt be able to maintain the territory and Zalda Kindom would have succeeded in invading the country.
I guess that might be the impression the other party would get But, the other party had no intentions of believing our story to begin with If he felt interested with the salt, he will definitely check it himself. If that is the case then theres no aning hiding it, no?
To be honest, he might actually stop checking it instead.
Fuh I wonder if he thinks that far? Besides, how did you know that? He was just a forr rcenary who has so little achievent during the civil war you know? How is he going to investigate where the salt ca from?
Isnt he soone that is only good at fighting?
From Earl Salzbergs viewpoint, Ryouma looks like your ordinary good guy.
Listening to his wife advice, The Earl welcod him with the highest hospitality, but inside, he was actually looking down at Ryouma.
(Just from looking at his body build I can see that he is a good fighter But that face, I cant see any trace of intellect from it)
The Earl can only see Ryouma as soone calm and good-natured, the Earl couldnt detect any aura that indicated intellectual capabilities from him.
For the Earl, good-natured man represents the weakness of ones heart, while being calm is an equivalent of having no ambitions.
Based on Ryoumas appearance, Earl Salzberg concluded that Ryouma was only good at fighting in battles.
Certainly he does not look like a resourceful man. But, I dont think that is true Absolutely.
Hmph The rumors might say that, but what is your proof? I think he was just soone who curried so favor into Elena Steiner though?
Maybe he felt dissatisfied towards his wifes opinion, but the Earl clicked his tongue while talking about his own opinion
I dont think that Elena-sama would do sothing like that though
Fuh Well, forget about that So? About that girl whom you told to accompany him, she did manage to get so information right?
Answering the question his wife shook her head. Seeing that, the Earl feels irritated.
Theres no way hes going to talk about sothing so suddenly Last night, he seems to have only embraced her Next ti, I will tell him to take the girl with him. Well, hearing from the report, that girl seems to not mind being his possession, thus I dont think shes going to refuse.
From the maid that Ryouma embraced, Yuria had received a report of what they both talked about last night.
(Well he sounds like soone whos kind toward won And most n would usually open their mouth after sharing a cup and bed with won.)
She thought of that while looking at her husband sarcastically.
Geez, to think that I have to shows such behavior toward an upstart Its really troubleso And this all is because of that foolish princess huh?
It is not foolish Princess, but a foolish Queen. She has been crowned as the new queen of the Rozeria Kingdom just the other day after all.
It seems like the image of Lupis being a foolish queen has been confird.
It was a word that would cause them to lose their life, but for the couple, that was their common view regarding her.
To give him the Wortenia Peninsula It would only cause us more troubles!
Well, you can complain as much as you want Right now, we have to watch that man, making sure hes not going to do anything unnecessary
The Earls wife gives him advice while ignoring the Earls complaint.
Apparently, in this household, the one who holds the real power is the wife.
I guess youre right At worst
Have you cald down now? In any case, the monsters within the peninsula will be happy that he is coming there
The Earl shows a cold smile after hearing his Wifes words.
-
Young master! You seed to be having fun last night
The middle-aged man sitting on the coach spoke up.
Following after the way Bolts addressed Ryouma, the bunch from the [Red Lion] have started calling him young master.
After being involved with the civil war together, they all have beco good friends with each other.
Hnn? How did you know that Mike?
They are currently heading back towards the Inn from the Earls mansion. Since they have a lot of ti, they rode the carriage slowly.
And as soon as they left the mansion, Mike starts talking with Ryouma.
Oh, I just so happened to hear about it when I talked with the workers at the mansion!
Did Bolts order you to do that?
Yes I was told to get as much information from the workers at the mansion as possible.
Mike answered Ryoumas question while stroking his beard.
Fll0w current novls o/n n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(c/o/m)
As expected of Bolts Hes fast
True Well, Nee-san is strong when it cos to battle, but shes weak when it cos to backdoor scheming With that being the case master Bolts has to cover for her in that regard
Among Liones [Red Lion] rcenary group, Mike is ranked right in the middle.
He was a dexterous person who can do almost any work.
This ti, he was given the work of Ryoumas escort.
Honestly, I never thought that we would stay at the Earls house just like that
Well Thanks to that I felt creeped out by how they welcod
as well Though they did not send so woman. The alcohol and food are not sothing that is usually served to the servants And the bedroom was really great too.
You too huh?
Indeed, To be honest I also feel creeped out by it.
Hearing Mikes words Ryouma nodded his head lightly and closes his eyes.
Both of them felt the sa thing when they stayed at the Earls mansion.
I wonder, why did they go that far?
After being silent for a while, Ryouma throw so questions toward Mike.
Well, I dont have a smart head like young master or master Bolts after all
With those words as the beginning, Mike begins to speak about how he felt.
I feel like they might want sothing from young master, or they want the young master to leave the city as fast as possible
I want you to go out, but I dont want us to be hostile to each other huh? I guess thats possible.
Theres also the possibility that Lupis pulled so strings behind the scene.
For Lupis, she cant rest easy unless Ryouma has arrived at the peninsula after all.
It is easy to understand if she asked Earl Salzberg to let Ryouma enter Wortenia peninsula without any hindrance.
(Either way, what option do I have in response to all of this? I guess its useless to think about this now. I need so information first. I should wait until Bolts and Genou presented their report first)
And to even provide such hospitality toward a servant, that ans
Theres sothing under the table huh
Indeed
Mike agrees with Ryouma while nodded his head.
By the way Mike! You didnt tell Laura and her sister about what had happened last night right?
Ryouma switched the topic. At that ti, since he doesnt know the intentions of the Earl, he has to do what he needs to do. But right now, the most important thing is to stop Mike blabbing his mouth.
Hearing Ryoumas question, Mike shows a stiff smile.
Well, lets see When I told them that young master is having fun last night Uwaaah, those ladies imdiately went into a fit of anger you know?
Because of how underdeveloped this world civilization, sexual activities are one of the few forms of entertainnt that exist.
Of course, as a rcenary Ryouma also had experience going into the red light district.(Note: There you have it, Ryouma is not a virgin when he embrace the maid)
Oi! Tell the truth! I dont know why, but sohow I know that they are definitely going to kill , you know?!
Hearing Mike joking answer, Ryouma instinctively raise his voice.
Well, isnt that obvious? Besides, the young master should have noticed those young ladies feeling right?
Mike spoke those words as if he was an elder speaking with his son.
W-Well, yeah
Ryouma respond to him with a short answer.
Theres no need to tell Mike in detail. Ryouma fully understands the sisters feelings.
If that is the case, young master should understand, no? Those young ladies also want to be embraced by young master. That is those twos deepest desire.
After Ryouma was summoned into this world, he saved the two sisters. Its been over 8 months since then.
The three of them have acted together all the ti. It is no surprise such emotions were born between them.
Ryouma himself was also aware that they are both won.
I know that, but
Did you feel bothered that one day you might leave them when you got back to your original world?
Regarding his circumstance, Ryouma had already explained them to the [Red Lion] rcenaries.
It was because they had questioned him regarding Genous question if he was soone from hinomoto
Well Yeah, that too I think I might lack determination too
It was unusual for Ryouma to be vague with his words.
He understands that he cant go back to his original world, and his mind also understands that he will have to remain in this world. But, his heart cant accept it yet. He still unable to forget the friends and family he left in Japan.
Although one can say that Ryouma is soone whos rciless, he is a human being too. It was natural for him to feel troubled with such feelings.
(To embrace those two I need to be prepared To stay in this world, together)
If it was won who work in the nightlife business, then he does not have to feel bothered. Since money settled that.
But in case of the Marfisto sisters, they show affection toward Ryouma without expecting anything from him.
To embrace such won
Theres no way Ryouma would be able to return to his original world alone and leave them behind.
Well As the young master knight, I will say this Since young master has accepted the territory, doesnt that an young master already decided what to do?
Well, since Ive involved everyone I cant really go back to my original world now
This was fate. If Ryouma left this world and went back to his original world, whats going to happen to Lione and the others?
(If theres a way for to get back I)
He already has the answer. As well as Ryoumas resolution
Well, as young masters knight I will also keep what happened last night a secret But in exchange, buy so drinks next ti, deal?
Mike said that while laughing.
Fine, you can drink as much as you want!
Mike changed the subject because he was being considerate toward Ryouma.
And Ryouma who knew that responded in kind.
(Everything is up to huh?)
