At first I stared, but when I found out I was a child, I loosened my expression.
âWhen you talk to me even though Iâm like you, the grownups will piss you off. I donât care about me. Just go somewhere.â
He said so as he stood up. Apparently, he cares about me.
If you come close and take a closer look at your face, you look very neat. If youâre in Japan, be an idol.
I wonder if it is.
Hair is short and black. The tall is huge and seems likely in the second half of 170. Given the age of fourteen, it is likely to grow to about mid-180.
Well, it doesnât matter what the look of Leeds is. I decided to look at my abilities and subordinate myself.
âThe risk spoke with knowledge. Be my minister.â
I told him on a direct ball.
âUh, hang out? Well, um, itâs the mountains I want to play for you, but I canât afford it right now, either.â
Leeds laughs bitterly.
He thinks itâs kid bullshit.
I havenât told her Iâm the lordâs son yet, so naturally I will?
âItâs not. My name is Ars Rovent. He is the son of a lord who governs this village. I felt a rare gift like you, so I want you to be my minister.â
The look on Reedsâs face changes when he hears my words.
âSon of a lordâŚâŚ? You?â
He looks at me with suspicious eyes.
It wonât even be possible. Now I am dressed in a miserable way to avoid finding out with my lordâs son.
Heâs not going to be a person in this village, so you wonât be able to pin him if you look at my face.
âIf youâre in trouble anyway, come with meâ
âNo, butâŚâ
Leeds gets lost. I guess Iâm worried that I can rely on a child like this.
Then, the sound of goo consisted around the belly of Leeds.
âYou were hungryâ
âOh, yeah, butâ
âI have plenty of food. If you come, Iâll feed you.â
â⌠uhâ
To my words, Leeds seems to be shaking his heart tremendously.
And in the end,
âUm, let me goâŚâ
and have asked me to blush a little.
â
âSpeaking of which, you didnât name it. My name is Leeds Muses, and youâre Ars Rovent?
âOh, yeahâ
On the way to the Mansion, Leeds has introduced himself.
Let me take this opportunity to ask you a lot about him.
âWhy was Leeds in that village?
âThereâs a lot going on. I was in the mercenary corps, but a lot of the members of the mercenary corps died in the war. The executives who were in command above are almost dead, so thereâs nothing more we can do, and the mercenaries are disbanded. I didnât have to go. I wandered around, and I got here.â
You seem to be struggling pretty hard.
But because you have the strength, canât you live as another mercenary regiment or caution stick?
I asked.
âI canât. There is nowhere to hire a Marka child who has no fame like me. I donât trust you. The previous mercenary regiment has been with us since we were kids.â
Reetz gave an explanation with a bitter laugh.
Surely it would be difficult for someone you donât trust to stick a caution stick or join a mercenary regiment.
Normally, itâs a strange story to suddenly turn a young man into a servant.
If the appraisal didnât show that it was Nobunagaâs talent level, I wouldnât normally do such outrages.
I was walking around talking, and I arrived at the mansion.
Reetz looked at my house, letting his mouth whisper,
âKo, is this your house?
Thatâs what Iâve been asking.
âI told you it was the lordâs sonâ
âHo⌠was it true⌠yes, no, uh, Iâm sorry. Something happened to your lordâs son. I listened to him casually.â
I donât mind.
âIs that it? But wait a minute. The fact that you are the son of a lord is not a joke or a fool to be the first to say that you will be a servantâŚâ
âNo matter, I mean itâ
âOh, yeah!?
Leeds is stunned.
I feel like I said I donât know what to look like about too much.
Letâs first feed Leeds and then ask Father to minister.
âDear Ars! Were you out again!? Iâm in trouble. Not at all! If anything happens, Iâll be killed!
The butler just came running over.
He is about a deacon in his fifties called Krantz.
I have served the Lovents for a long time.
He takes care of me around him.
âPreach later, prepare more food than thatâ
âAre you hungry?
âNo, this person eats, not meâ
I pointed to Reeds standing behind me.
âHuh? Well, isnât that the Marka! What are you thinking, such as putting such inferior people inside the mansion!
Krantz turned his face bright red and scolded me.
It is unpleasant that Leeds is discriminated against, but this is something we cannot help.
Marka discrimination is deeply rooted. At least everyone I knew thought the Marcas were inferior races.
Because it is rooted in common sense, it is impossible to change it so easily.
It wonât change if you persuade him somewhat.
âAnyway, Iâll get you some food soon. Heâs dying of hunger.â
I donât know if Iâm dying, but to appeal to urgency, I said so.
â⌠ok. Itâs pathetic to die when it comes to the Markas. But as soon as you feed them, youâll kick them out!
With that said, Krantz went to get food.
But you seem to hate me more than I thought.
Can this be done for ministers or something?
No, Iâll definitely try.
Leeds should always be an essential talent for me.
You will do your part in saving me many times in the future. Is this what youâre going to miss?
Krantz brought bread and water.
âOh, thank you!
Unflavorful, hard bread but still looks delicious, Reetz ate.
âNow, please kick me out!
âI canât do that. I brought him here to minister.â
âHey, what are you talking about! Such a thing!
âAnyway, Iâm gonna talk to your father.â
I took Leedsâ hand, ignored Krantz, and forcefully headed to my fatherâs room.
