Quantity 10, Chapter 3 “The Fanatics”

Half 1

The Redgrave household mansion within the royal capital.

For some cause, the one who greeted me was the Duke, Vince-san ―― Ange’s Papa.

“I’m so glad you got here. Once I heard you have been coming, I rushed over right here as quick as I might.”

“H-Haa”

I heard that Gilbert has returned to their territory in his flip, however did the Duke come all the way in which to the royal capital to see me?

I couldn’t consider it a little bit.

Ange’s Papa had introduced considered one of his friends into the parlor.

I had been knowledgeable prematurely, however that individual was taking a look at me.

“Ano, who’s that individual?”

“He’s the man I’ve been which means to introduce you to.”

The individual Ange’s Papa dropped at me bowed respectfully in entrance of me.

“It’s a pleasure to satisfy you for the primary time, Duke Bartfalt. I’m Rely [Dominique Fou Mottley].”

If the center title is Fou, he’s a lord nobleman.

If he’s a Rely, the scale of his territory have to be fairly giant.

However Rely Mottley seems to be in his thirties by all means.

His silky blond hair curls outward on the ends, and his beard is properly groomed and filthless.

His physique was toned and he appeared like a handsome, succesful man.

Ange’s Papa tells the story of how he was introduced right here.

“I’ve a reference to Rely Mottley. He’s the rely who owns the floating islands in his territory, and he’s one of many ones who handle our borders.”

“Border?”

Once I checked out Rely Mottley, he was laughing.

“It isn’t protected by the household alone, however collectively by the lords and nobles of the area, led by the rely of the frontier. Because of this, it was regrettable that I used to be not in a position to be part of the Duke within the battles of the previous Principality.”

“I-I see.”

He’s fairly a clean talker. On the time, my popularity was very low ―― to not say under rubbish.

Nobody would have been silly sufficient to need to work for me.

Nevertheless, Ange’s Papa says to me.

“Rely Mottley is a fan of yours.”

“――Eh?”

Once I was shocked and checked out Rely Mottley, he grabs my hand with each palms and waves it up and down tremendously.

“Once I heard about Duke Bartfalt’s success, I felt saved. I’ve been being attentive to you because the time of the dueling commotion the yr earlier than final, however I by no means anticipated you to perform such an awesome achievement.”

“A-An awesome achievement ?!”

Rely Mottley grins as I’m wondering what I’ve accomplished.

“You’ve got damaged the sh*tty customs of the Kingdom.”

“Ah, sure”

May this individual probably have suffered not directly from a lady on the college?

It appears my ideas have been proper.

“My household was elevated to the rank of rely by my father’s technology, however after I was attending college I used to be nonetheless a Viscount. My marriage associate was a horrible girl.”

“I-I don’t know what to say about that”

I’m certain he’s nonetheless struggling.

However I used to be mistaken.

“She was actually the worst type of girl. She had a number of lovers earlier than the kid was born. Whose baby was she going to offer beginning to? ―― Nevertheless, Duke Bartfalt has destroyed the customs together with the Principality. Thanks! Thanks very a lot!”

“Eh? EH?!”

Puzzled, Ange’s Papa tells me the small print of the story.

“Rely Mottley is divorced from his spouse on the grounds of unfaithfulness.”

“HAa?! Divorce ?!”

Marriage in noble society means a connection between households.

Divorce can’t be granted on the idea of private emotions, however till now, the Kingdom has not even acknowledged divorce on the grounds of unfaithfulness.

It got here to be acknowledged, and apparently Rely Mottley quickly divorced her.

“I additionally should thank the Duke Redgrave. And I can’t thanks sufficient relating to my spouse”

Spouse?

Once I tilt my head again, Rely Mottley tells me about his present spouse.

“I remarried. She was a girl who had been there for me for a few years, however she was a servant, so her standing turned a difficulty. So I requested the Duke Redgrave for assist.”

From there, Ange’s Papa tells the story.

“Undertake his spouse right into a household of knights related to our household, then undertake her into the household of a viscount, and after a certain quantity of training, marry her to Rely Mottley.”

――Isn’t it profession laundering?

In different phrases, did Rely Mottley purchase a noble standing by asking Ange’s Papa to marry a girl who was not a noble?

No, even when he doesn’t purchase it, what’s the deal?

As I take into consideration this, Rely Mottley adjustments the topic.

“I can’t cease eager about you two. That stated, I additionally heard about Duke Bartfalt’s actions within the royal capital. I heard that you simply took management of the royal capital in a single night time. A hero who rose to the rank of duke in a single technology is totally different.”

“No, that’s”

It might be simpler if I might say it was because of Luxion and never me.

I used to be going to say that it was solely due to everybody’s cooperation, however I used to be interrupted by Rely Mottley.

“Nevertheless, it was a bit naive. If it have been me, I’d have allow them to trigger a little bit extra injury to the royal capital.”

“――What are you saying?”

To my shock, Rely Mottley appears to be like puzzled.

Instantly Ange’s Papa put his hand on my shoulder.

“I’m sorry. He’s rising too quick, so he’s needed to atone for numerous issues.”

Listening to this, Rely Mottley nodded just a few occasions and smiled.

“It’s a draw back of speedy promotion. No, I’d say it’s extra of an enviable fear.”

Listening to the 2 of them smiling and conversing, I sign to Luxion to examine.

Luxion deciphered what they have been making an attempt to say from their dialog.

[Dominique seemed to think that Master intended to join the Redgrave family and turn against the kingdom. He must have been suspicious that Master knew nothing about it.]

――That’s so.

Then Rely Mottley appears to be like straight at me.

“Duke Bartfalt, will you burn the royal capital collectively?”

“――That’s not a humorous joke.”

“A joke? Don’t you perceive that if you’re a lord nobleman? For therefore a few years, the dominion has been hostile and oppressive to us. Shouldn’t they pay for that?”

Rely Mottley’s eyes have been like probing me ―― and but, he was severe.

I can really feel that he actually desires to set the royal capital on hearth.

Ange’s papa additionally waits for this.

“Rely Mottley is in too haste. You must attempt to be extra cautious.”

“I urge your pardon. It appears I used to be excited after I met the hero of my goals.”

.

Half 2

When Rely Mottley left, I used to be alone with Ange’s Papa.

Ange’s Papa is laughing.

“Rely Mottley is a little bit of a militant nobleman who fights on the border. I hope you’ll forgive him for this case due to my face.”

“――Are you actually going to go to battle with the Kingdom?”

Once I requested him straightforwardly, Ange’s Papa didn’t break his smile.

“I heard you had a combat with Ange. What’s that woman doing?”

Apparently, he has caught on to the truth that the connection between Ange and I isn’t going properly.

“Please reply me. For those who’re severe, I’ll cease you.”

Once I say this, Ange’s Papa ―― Vince-san’s voice turns into considerably decrease.

“Even when we pressure the dominion to live on as it’s, finally dissatisfaction will erupt. If that’s the case, is it boastful of us to need to decrease the injury with our personal palms?”

“Dissatisfaction?”

“You’ve seen Rely Mottley, proper? Oppressed lords and nobles like him are dissatisfied with the dominion. Issues are altering today, however do you actually suppose they’ll hearken to you if you happen to inform them to forgive?”

“That’s――”

The dissatisfaction of the lord nobles, who’ve been oppressed by the dominion, doesn’t subside simply because the scenario has modified. Quite, plainly many nobles are pondering of venting their resentment in opposition to the weakened kingdom.

I see――I suppose he introduced Rely Mottley to point out me that the Lords and Nobles are severe.

“It’s a obligatory sacrifice. If we revolt in an uncontrolled method, we are going to present a gap to different international locations and the Kingdom of Horfalt will probably be divided. We should keep away from that.”

Vince-san places his hand on my shoulder.

“I’ve excessive hopes for you. With the ability of your misplaced objects, the bloodshed will probably be minimal. Then I’ll give Ange a agency reminder from me.”

――Has Ange been having this type of trade for a very long time?

.

Half 3

After getting back from the Redgrave household mansion to my room within the scholar dormitory, I used to be mendacity on my mattress and searching up on the ceiling.

“If there’s going to be a revolt, decrease the injury, huh”

Floating close to me, Luxion talks about Vince-san’s speak.

“It might definitely be efficient, however the Redgrave household is a department of the royal household. There will probably be many nobles who is not going to prefer it. In truth, if the Redgrave household isn’t cautious, it is going to be destroyed along with the royal household.”

From the attitude of the lord nobles, the Redgrave household can be a department of the royal household and could be a hated enemy.

The one means for the Redgrave household to outlive was to take the lead and begin a brand new nation.

“I want I might simply carry on defending the royal household”

“It have to be ambition. Each Vince and Gilbert need the throne. “

“I don’t get it”

[Their real intention may be to get the country for themselves, but it is also true that they can reduce the damage caused by the rebellion. Because Master is a hero for the lord nobles.]

“As a result of I freed them from an disagreeable marriage?”

[That may be so, but the Master’s reckless attitude toward the Kingdom is the kind of hero they have been waiting for.]

“I’m only a small hero.”

“Marrying Angelica means becoming a member of palms with Duke Redgrave. On this world, the person and the home are usually not but fully separated. “

I’ve heard that within the days when a person might simply die, the household was essential.

It was too widespread for folks to die, and it was their home and bloodline that needed to be left behind.

What a beautiful factor it’s to reside in a world the place the person is revered!

It’s pure that I, who know such happiness, and Ange, who solely is aware of this world, have totally different values.

“So, what are your ideas?”

[Yes?]

“How can we unite the Kingdom with out inflicting injury? Is there any means to do that with as little bloodshed as attainable?”

What sort of solutions will AI present?

As for me, I needed the outlandish reply to offer me a approach to save the whole lot.

[If Master quickly takes control of the royal capital, the neighboring lords will turn over their hands and settle their disputes. The nobles who adore Master, like Dominique, will gather in royal capital, and if a new nation is born, the damage will be minimal.]

――It was silly of me who had excessive hopes for Luxion.

“It means”

[Master should be king.]

“You fool, I reject such strategies.”

I’m a king? I don’t know concerning the others, however I’m not the type of one that likes to be king.

I nonetheless want I might retreat to the countryside and reside a peaceable, gradual life.

[We can minimize the damage, though?]

“For those who imply utilizing your energy to rule, then you definitely’re no totally different than the Redgrave household. A~a, it was my mistake to seek the advice of you.”

Once I advised him it was ineffective, Luxion got here as much as my face.

[But it was Master who couldn’t come up with the solution, so you asked me for the answer?]

“That’s why I admitted it was a mistake for me to seek the advice of you.”

Within the first place, Luxion isn’t harm or bothered by the destruction of the dominion of Horfalt.

As a substitute, he would slightly see any nation based by the brand new people be destroyed.

Every time this type of troublesome concern comes up, he all the time says one thing like, “Why don’t we simply destroy it?”.

“I ought to speak to somebody about it. However Ange, who is sweet at this type of speak, can’t be relied on this one time.”

[You usually rely on her too much, though.]

“Shut up”

Trying up on the ceiling, I ponder who I ought to speak to.

Quite a lot of faces got here to thoughts, after which I considered one.

There was one man who was in the identical scenario as me.

.

Half 4

Flower beds close to the coed dormitory.

Herring, who waters the flowers there, didn’t mock or snicker at listening to my query.

Nevertheless, he has a troublesome look on his face.

“The values concern is a troublesome one. I’ve additionally had bother with it lots since I reincarnated over right here.”

“Did it bother you too?”

“Trigger I nonetheless have recollections of my earlier life”

Herring let loose a small sigh with a darkish expression on his face, then appeared up on the sky.

“Since I turned a knight, I’ve been pressured to combat in wars.”

“I see”

From the way in which Herring appeared, it was straightforward to think about what he had accomplished within the battle.

Knights and nobles are usually not allowed to run away from the battle.

Do this, and your standing and status will fall to the bottom.

It is not uncommon information that combating is honorable.

And on the battlefield, if you happen to kill lots of people, you can be referred to as a hero.

That is the explanation why neither I nor Herring is glad to be referred to as heroes.

It additionally proves that we have now killed lots of people.

Herring, maybe sensing my emotions, scratches his head and comforts me.

“We each have a tough time. It is likely to be higher to haven’t any reminiscence of our earlier life――No, if I hadn’t, I wouldn’t have observed Mia”

If I had no recollections of my earlier life, I wouldn’t have bothered, however the information of my earlier life is the one cause I’m nonetheless alive and protected at this time.

Even for Herring, he is ready to meet Mia correctly due to his information of his earlier life.

“If I didn’t have recollections of my earlier life, I’d be useless by now.”

Remembering that Zora virtually bought me out, it could be a great factor that I used to be reincarnated with the recollections of my earlier life.

Herring is laughing like he’s in bother.

“You’re having a tough time too.”

“I’m glad Hering was right here. I can’t speak to 5 idiots about these sorts of issues.”

“There’s Marie, proper?”

It’s true that Marie is a reincarnated individual like us.

Nevertheless, there’s a essential distinction.

“She didn’t kill folks within the battle.”

“――That’s proper. Then I suppose you possibly can’t speak to her. However I’d like her to remain that means.”

Herring provides a distant look and I give a small nod.

Marie taking part in an lively function within the battle? It doesn’t swimsuit her.

Herring put his hand on his chin and started to suppose.

“If we have been within the empire, we might have consulted with the emperor.”

“To His Majesty the Emperor? You’re awfully pleasant.”

When I’m shocked at Herring’s willingness to casually seek the advice of with the emperor, he himself appears to be like a little bit impatient.

“Did I not inform you? Our emperor ―― Mia’s father is a reincarnated individual.”

“You’re mendacity, proper?!”

Aren’t there too many reincarnated? Once I was shocked alone, Herring put his proper hand on his face.

“He could also be a loud outdated man, however he’s reliable in occasions like these. He’s not getting any older, you realize. If there’s a reincarnated individual with extra life expertise, you might speak to them about it.”

Seeing the troubled Herring, I considered one individual I might consider.

” ―― It’s Erika”

.

Half 5

I instantly went to Erika.

Because it was a weekday, there have been many followers round, however after I approached them, they have been attentive and moved away.

I instantly invite Erika to the tea room to seek the advice of along with her privately.

Erika listened to my considerations.

” ―― Uncle is troubled by the distinction in values between you and Angelica-san.”

“That’s proper”

I really feel ashamed of myself for asking my niece for relationship recommendation, however I’ve to depend on her as a result of there are only some folks I can speak to about it.

Luxion floating beside me, profiting from my indebtedness.

[Even though you are her uncle, Erika has more life experience than you.]

“Can’t you be a little bit extra respectful to your grasp? For those who have been nicer to me, I’d be nicer to you, too?”

[No thanks]

Erika giggled when she noticed Luxion, who assured me that he didn’t want my concern.

“Uncle and Luxion have all the time gotten alongside properly.”

There’s one individual right here who’s misunderstanding.

“Erika doesn’t perceive how unhealthy this man’s mouth is, does she?”

“A relationship in which you’ll be able to say no matter you need to one another is valuable, Uncle. However greater than that, you care about Angelica-san.”

Smiling, Erika had a tolerance that one wouldn’t anticipate from somebody a lot youthful.

I flip my face away from Erika.

“So much has occurred.”

“Try to be sincere there and say that you simply love her. Uncle, you’re not the sort to say what you actually really feel fairly often.”

“Trustworthy? I’m all the time sincere. I say what I believe instantly, and other people round me don’t like me.”

I smiled at her and Erika checked out me smiling.

I really feel as if her eyes are wanting into my thoughts, so I avert my gaze.

Erika doesn’t blame me for my infantile perspective and begins speaking about options.

“If uncle desires to be with Angelica-san, I believe making an attempt to be good to her could be the alternative of what she desires.”

“Eh?”

Once I raised my head and checked out Erika’s face, the individual in query had a severe look on her face, her smile gone.

“Angelica-san desires to help uncle. No, I believe she desires to face subsequent to you and attain one thing collectively.”

“Ange is?”

“Uncle, you might be forgetting one thing, aren’t you? Angelica-san was initially a girl who would have been the queen of the dominion of Horfalt.”

Ange was initially betrothed to Julius, a girl who would have finally grow to be queen if nothing had occurred to her. I do know that and have by no means forgotten it.

“I haven’t forgotten”

“If that’s the case, you don’t perceive. Angelica-san is a gifted younger girl who was raised to be the queen of a rustic. She has numerous satisfaction. She simply can’t stand being protected.”

She doesn’t like simply being protected, huh.

Certainly, she stated one thing like that earlier than.

It was totally different from me, who instantly took the assistance of Luxion to make issues simpler, within the first place, by eager about it.

“She desires to see, really feel, depend on, being depend on, and help one another aspect by aspect. However uncle can do something alone.”

“I’m not likely alone”

I attempt to make excuses, however Erika smiles and tilts her head barely.

“I’ll educate you the easiest way to make up.”

.

Half 6

After college, just a few days after the date.

Ange walks down the hallway, being pulled alongside by Livia.

Livia is strongly pulling Ange, who isn’t very enthusiastic.

“Ange, it’s already began.”

“Relax, Livia. I’ll be coming over after I end my errands.”

“No. That’s how you plan to distance your self from Leon-san and never take part, is it not?”

Livia sees that she had deliberate to not attend the gathering due to an errand.

Ange, who isn’t glad concerning the scenario, tells her why she doesn’t need to take part.

“What sort of face ought to I present to Leon? I don’t need him to hate me greater than this.”

“If that’s the case then it’s pointless, please meet Leon-san! Everybody needs to be right here by now.”

Then Livia pulls her into the vacation spot classroom.

As the scholars had left the varsity, the lecture rooms which are normally used have been quiet ―― not.

Leon’s yelling comes from contained in the classroom.

“I stated no!”

A number of different voices could possibly be heard from the classroom to the hallway, and Ange and Livia checked out one another and nodded their heads.

“What sort of gathering is that this? Livia is aware of about this, proper?”

“No, I’m advised solely by Leon-san that it was so he might make up with Ange.”

“C-May make up?”

The truth that Leon desires to make up is nice data for Ange.

Nevertheless, from contained in the classroom, Leon’s shouts may be heard.

“Go dwelling! Go away! Please!”

He retains yelling desperately begging for somebody to go away, however voices of refusal may be heard from contained in the classroom.

Standing in entrance of the door, Ange reaches out with all of the braveness she will be able to muster.

She opened the door a little bit and peeked inside, and there they have been, the standard members of the group.

(Noel’s right here. Hmm? Is that His Highness Jake and the others over there? And the overseas trade college students from the empire. And Princess Erika?!)

Standing on the podium educating within the stairwell classroom, Leon repeatedly tapped the desk with the palm of his hand.

In entrance of Leon’s eyes is a bunch of 5 folks, led by Marie.

Unusually, Leon is pleading with Marie and the others.

“You guys are usually not invited! Please depart! I’ll provide the cash!”

Despite the fact that Leon would pay them and ask them to go away, Marie and her pals didn’t even attempt to depart. Usually, they’d have obtained the cash and left as quickly as attainable.

Marie protests in opposition to Leon.

“That’s how you intend to make yourselves really feel good! I received’t permit it. I’ll by no means forgive you for that!”

Behind Marie, clinging to the rostrum, was Julius, his eyes bloodshot.

“Leon, we’re pals, proper? So take me with you!”

“When did I grow to be your buddy?”

“Now!”

“Be obedient and go away!”

It isn’t solely Julius.

Even additionally Jilk.

“Leon-kun, we’re your subordinates. Don’t be so distant that you simply don’t need to depend upon us?”

“Don’t you ever suppose that I don’t need to depend upon you, so I received’t take you with me? Go away.”

Brad pushes Jilk away and begins to enchantment to him to take him.

“Then it’s my flip, isn’t it? A magician like me have to be indispensable. Now, promise me you’ll take me!”

“No ne~ed! Go away and look within the mirror.”

When Brad was additionally rejected, Greg now pushed him away forcefully.

“That is the place I are available in, proper, Leon! In contrast to the remainder of them, you want a person with expertise and dependability. You may rely on me!”

“Go away, muscle”

“Fufu, if you happen to reward me, meaning you’ll take me with you, proper?”

“――Sorry, go away”

Regularly, Leon is dropping his power.

Chris kicks Greg out of posing and asks Leon to let him be part of.

“Leon, I may be helpful. You had your adventures with me within the Republic, didn’t you? You and I at the moment are a bonded celebration. In different phrases, we’re pals who entrust our lives to one another. Please let me be part of you on this journey――”

Earlier than Chris might end, Ange was operating.

She pushes Chris away.

“An journey journey?!”

“――Guhe”

Chris, who had been pushed away, was groaning however couldn’t afford to fret about it now.

Leon, wanting on the excited Ange, was a little bit taken again.

“Y-Sure. Really, I used to be pondering of doing a treasure hunt and making an attempt to make a plan at this time.”

Trying intently, one might see an elaborate map on the blackboard.

He was in all probability planning to make a plan any more, however Marie and her pals got here and irritated him after they heard the story.

Ange pushes Julius and Marie away and approaches Leon.

“For those who invited me, does that imply you need me to affix?”

The space between one another’s noses is sort of touching.

Leon was blushing from embarrassment, however Ange was blushing with pleasure when she heard concerning the journey.

When Leon backs away and creates distance, he clears his throat after which talks about his plan.

“Clearly, I’m going to get Ange to assist me. This time I’ll take Einhorn out and we’ll head for the floating island the place the treasure is.”

When Leon frivolously hits the overhanging map together with his fist just a few occasions, Ange additionally strikes nearer to the blackboard to take a more in-depth take a look at the map.

“It’s a really elaborate map. The paper is new. Is it actual?”

“Little question about it. The map was ready by Luxion.”

When Leon appears to be like at Luxion, Ange’s gaze turns to him as properly.

Luxion moved the pink lens up and down in a small movement as if nodding.

[Yes. I made the old map look better.]

“You may actually do something”

Whereas impressed, Ange rapidly returns her gaze to the map.

“A constructing? Is it an outdated fort?”

As she mumbled, for some cause Marie interrupted the dialog.

“It’s a dungeon in a collapsed outdated fort! There are many magic stones and treasures. If all goes properly, I’ll get wealthy, do away with my poverty, and I received’t should flatter Ani——Leon for cash anymore!”

Julius and his pals are much more motivated after listening to Marie’s pleasure.

“That signifies that Marie will spend much less time with Leon. We are going to discover the treasure and have time to spend with Marie. I can’t stand the considered not being part of such an incredible journey!”

Marie and her pals are speaking as in the event that they have already got the treasure.

Ange is surprisingly irritated by this, however ignores it and talks to Leon.

“I’m in. When? When can we depart?”

Forgetting that her relationship with Leon was a bit awkward, Ange was clinging to him.

She grabs Leon’s arm and hugs him.

Leon, who was grabbed, is flabbergasted.

“That’s why I gathered everybody collectively at this time to make these plans, and now all these pointless folks become involved.”

Leon’s gaze went to Jake and the others who appeared to have gathered along with Marie and the others.

The brief Jake crosses his arms and smiles fearlessly.

“Anybody who hears of such an thrilling journey and doesn’t take part isn’t a nobleman. Aare, you’re coming with me, aren’t you?”

As a nobleman, in fact! he introduced firmly and crisply, then turned again to Aare, who was standing behind him.

(Aa~, you need to showcase your abilities to girls? His Highness Jake is simply too insincere concerning the adventures, so no.)

Ange’s opinion of Jake has been dropped two steps, if not one step, in her thoughts.

Aare stared at Jake, however this one was holding his palms collectively.

“I’d be glad if I might take part.”

“Fufu, depart it to me. Duke Bartfalt, we’re additionally becoming a member of in.”

Jake tells him as if it have been a choice, however Leon provides him a chilly look.

When Leon says, the 5 idiots, led by Julius, are booing Jake.

“Proper, you guys go away!”

“What ?! You’re only a bastard who’s been disinherited!”

A sibling quarrel that begins abruptly.

Leon let loose a giant sigh.

“Julius, you guys can depart too.”

“Leon, don’t be chilly about it! We’re pals, proper?!”

“Cease! Don’t cling to my legs!”

The classroom was noisy, however when a person opened his mouth, it turned quiet suddenly.

The person’s title is Oskar.

“I want to earn cash for my future with Jenna-san. So, brother-in-law, would you be keen to let me take part?”

Oskar speaks up naturally, however these round him who know what’s going on take a look at Leon.

This concerned household issues within the Bartfalt household, and the one one who might decide was Leon.

Oskar, not understanding the change within the ambiance of the place, asks Leon.

“At the moment, it doesn’t matter if it’s a chore. Please assist me to grow to be a person worthy of Jenna-san!”

Oskar’s sincerity made Leon’s cheeks tighten.

“I believe you might be worthy sufficient, and I’d slightly really feel sorry for you as a substitute. Please, don’t bow down. I perceive. I’ll take you with me.”

“Is that true! I did it, His Highness Jake! It appears to be like like I’m going to be allowed to take part.”

Jake’s face turns pink at Oskar’s report of his pleasure.

“That’s the place it is best to ask him to let your grasp be part of!”

“Eh, me, do it?”

Why ought to I be the one to beg? Oskar tilted his head, a glance of not likely understanding on his face.

Then, within the classroom, which was getting noisy once more, it was Livia who approached Ange.

“Ange, that”

Ange hugs Livia, who’s fearful.

“Livia, it’s an journey. Journey! This time, in contrast to any earlier than, it’s an actual journey. Perhaps it’s a dungeon nobody has ever set foot in. You’re in, proper? Proper ?!”

As Ange’s eyes sparkled, Livia nodded with a sophisticated expression on her face.
