Returning to the mansion, there was grandfather greeting me in a flustered state. There was a visitor for me, apparently. After thanking Ryuze, my body full of sweat, I changed and put in order, a suitable appearance for receiving a guest.\n\nIn the guest room, there sat a familiar gentleman and a sulking youth. Both were neatly dressed but exuding an aura of nervousness. The gentleman was a friend of grandfatherās another head of an Earlās family. He visits our mansion every now and then. The child beside him was probably his son. They have the same green eyes and blond hair that comes with a shade of orange. The me who hurriedly got here, was helplessly breathing roughly, catching my breath. Even a little moment becomes a burden to Britanyās body. Being urged by grandfather, I take my seat. Britanyās gigantic butt, there off, took two peopleās worth of space on the sofa.\n\nāFor this occasion, what discourtesy my son did⦠I had him rather late and probably doted on him too much for such a thing to happenā\n\nFrom the earnest apology this gentleman was giving, I was immediately able to guess his purpose for coming here. This gentleman, was the one who proposed my engagement, and also the one who broke it one-sidedly. Anger is welling up at why such a person is invited into our mansion but, coming from the good-hearted grandfather, I doubt he can flat-out ignore a friend. And⦠how much this person is shrinking in apology did make him pitiable. Incidentally, what did he mean by his sonās discourtesyā¦?\n\nāAlthough itās embarrassing to say, but this talk on annulment⦠I only knew of it yesterdayā\n\nI turned my head to one side in question to his words.\n\nāTo tell you the truth, half a month ago, I was absent from the residence due to visits to capital and territorial inspections. The matter with this engagement annulment, was done by my son, without notice, at that time⦠soā¦ā\n\nThe gentleman appealed to grandfather in hopes to make this engagement annulment as though it never happened.\n\nāEven if you say that⦠Britany was really hurt by this case, not even willing to eat⦠poor thingā¦ā\n\nGrandfather, you are wrong, itās a normal diet... He was misunderstanding the reason of his granddaughterās light eating.\n\nāLady Britany⦠truly, Iām very sorryā\n\nA gentleman, facing me, deeply bowing, is, as one would expect, a bit pitiful.\n\nāPlease raise your head. About this case, I pay no mind to itā I said with a smile.\n\nHowever, from the outset, all that could be seen is a fatty with a weird smile. He only withered away in response. It hurts a littleā¦\n\nāPlease donāt mind me and have a good talk with grandfather. Iāll go along with the decision you two agreed onā\n\nYoisho, I lifted this heavy butt and went out the room. The talk will probably be easier to proceed without the dumped person in question. Nevertheless⦠That son, he probably really disliked having to be engaged to me. So much so to aim for his parentās absence to send an annulment. Itās not that I donāt understand how he feels if I was in his position. Even Iād was to annul it if I were to nearly get engaged with a superior fatty. Personalityās bad and body stinks too⦠but looking into the position of a householdās, I donāt think Iāll actually put it into practice.\n\nāNow, I wonder where thisāll head toā¦ā\n\nIf that boy becomes my fiancĆ©, Ryuzeās condition will be met. Thatās fine. However, the other partyās probably in never-ending denial. Thatās rich in its own way with a line in place.\n\nThe me who was released from the guest room then decided to head for the hot spring Ryuze previous mentioned. The smell Iām currently dispersing is very severe, Iād like to secretly soak in the springs if possible.\n\nThe hot springs was located within our mansionās premises. The grounds of our earlās house was, like in any countryside, big. Thereās forests, rivers, and caves, so having a hot spring wouldnāt be weird.\n\nāFu⦠Fu⦠Fwuā¦ā\n\nI pushed my wash inside the premises, endlessly forming sweat. Although I was handed a rough map, the place sure is far⦠and, itās hot. If itās a normal person, they probably wouldnāt have so much trouble just to reach there, however, I am a white pig opposer, one very lacking in exercise.\n\nKuuh⦠If only I can ride a horse⦠Should I practice horse-ridingā¦?\n\nI took quite some time to reach the hot spring in deep breaths. If I say, in conclusion, there is a hot spring⦠There is one, butā¦\n\nāWhat is thisā¦ā\n\nFrom the cracks of the rock wall, flows something like a spring⦠However, nothing like a catcher for bathing is there, the water only flows down to the ground, then river. It might be due to the components of the water, making colour of the stream change.\n\nThe surrounding water in the river, you wouldnāt normally use it so itās fine but⦠the hot spring sure is a wasteā¦\n\nTouching the water, although the temperature is a bit high, itās not something unbearable, draining the source partially is possible. Now that I think of it, on the way here, there was a small dried up pool. That was a āpond substituteā that grandfather made for me; a shallow pond. However, Britany, as the one who hated moving, rarely ever used it. It became a useless good now that its dried up.\nPulling this spring to that artificial pool, then using the river as a flow⦠it may be do-able. They are close to one another, but even though I say that, it still requires a conduit. I donāt have the knowledge nor skills to make one. Even knowledge on public works, domestic affairs, medical science, business, cooking⦠I know none of them⦠only the worldās origin based on the story of a shoujo manga.\n\nCan I only ask Ryuze-oniisamaā¦? No, but I doubt heāll approve of me making a conduit to past time⦠Although itās not large-scale, itās still, only Britanyās selfishnessā¦\n\nāHahā¦ā\n\nMy own incompetence is becoming detestable.\nā\nWhile I was making a deep sigh, suddenly, a shadow rose before my eyes.\n\n\n\n
