Episode 151
Chapter 2
After my sister became stable and I introduced her to our little ones, I introduced Rondo to her, and time passed like that.
At that moment, two men come into view, running out of breath, from the entrance of the rose garden.
When I turned up my hearing a little, I heard this.
‘No, it really flew in, didn’t you know that?’
‘How would I know, I just took a picture.’
‘This guy is funny. Is that why you asked me to make a bet?’
‘So you did it? You didn’t do it.’
‘No, the problem isn’t that we didn’t do it. We were preparing to have a parade or something with the kids we gathered, but what is this? If you knew, you should have told us a long time ago… ‘
‘Okay, then just keep your mouth shut. Then Confucius will hear everything.’
Aveiro and a man next to him who looks to be in his late 20s.
This is the guy Aveiro introduced me to before.
The name is Philip.
Did you say you were a background check specialist?
I used that material that friend made quite a bit.
Those two guys closed their mouths and came towards me.
however.
“I heard everything. Our Aveiro, you’re cuter than I thought, right?”
“Ah… … haha.”
Aveiro smiles awkwardly.
Philip, next to him, looked quite nervous.
No, you seemed quite active from the way you were talking on the way here. Why are you like this?
“It was Philip, right?”
“Yes! That’s right!”
He’s so well-dressed that anyone who sees him would think he’s a soldier.
I approached the guy and patted him on the shoulder.
“Thank you. I put the information you gave me to good use.”
“It’s nothing!”
It’s so cute how he doesn’t even make eye contact and just looks off into space as best he can while answering.
My sister and Ron had blank expressions on their faces, perhaps because it was the first time they had seen Philip like that.
I turned my head and looked at Aveiro.
“I thought it was mostly done?”
“Yes. Since we haven’t received permission from Confucius, all progress has been halted for the time being, and we are only maintaining the status quo.”
“If I summarize?”

“Currently, except for the four knights surrounding the Marquis of Valantie, two elders, and guards patrolling outside the territory, as well as apprentice knights and full-fledged knights, about a hundred people, everyone else is on Elizabeth’s side.”
From this point on, I felt something was strange.
Elizabeth’s side?
Something about the nuance seems a little strange?
Did he read my expression?
Our Aveiro said with a confident expression.
“I found out the real reason why the Master sent me here.”
As soon as I heard that, I felt a pang inside.
Did you know I was on vacation?
Are you even planning to establish a new Department of Information Studies at the academy and appoint a Dean there?
What the heck, how much does this guy know?
At that time, I was thinking like that.
“Are you planning to make Elizabeth a Marquis?”
“……huh?”
The accident has stopped.
“Haha, as expected, it’s Confucius. When I first came here, there were a lot of things to do that were strange. As I continued to do it, I realized something. When Confucius sent me here, he said, from the word family to the words to organize things, and when I put all of that together, I came to a conclusion. At that time, I thought, “Ah, our Confucius wants ‘that kind of thing.’ So I changed my direction and proceeded.”
… … What is he talking about now?
“I organized the elders, organized the knights, organized the soldiers. It was a bit difficult because Mantis’ roots were deeper than I thought, but I still organized most of them. Those around the Marchioness and the Marquis are also Count Mantis’s private soldiers, so I’m just waiting to take a break for now… … .”
Aveiro, who was speaking, trails off.
Then he looks at my face and the teacher sitting on my shoulder, and blinks.
And then he opened and closed his mouth several times, and then he closed his mouth again.
I guess he noticed.
“… … Isn’t it?”
“I don’t know. Me too.”
“… … What did I do?”
“I want to ask. What did you do when you came?”
“… … .”
I crossed my arms for a moment and thought.
this.
After thinking about it carefully.
It’s okay.
I just turned my head back.

My older sister was tilting her head.
Now I understand.
That’s what you were crying about earlier.
Advertisements
That’s what it meant.
The first female marquis of the continent.
He raised his arm slightly and patted Aveiro on the shoulder.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“… … No. Did I do something wrong?”
He immediately shook his head.
What’s the useless thing?
“Good job. You actually looked ahead of me.”
“Me?”
“uh.”
“Is that so…?”
“Actually, I thought my sister wasn’t ready yet.”
Elizabeth Valantier.
He is not even twenty years old.
An age where one has recently completed a coming-of-age ceremony.
18 years old, the flower of youth.
What my older sister said she wanted to do.
I was willing to help with whatever it was.
But he is a Marquis… … .
No matter how much I think about it, wouldn’t my older sister do better than a psychopathic ‘punk’ like me?
Before going to my sister, I asked Aveiro first.
“What do you think?”
“You mean Elizabeth?”
“uh.”
Aveiro said with a serious expression.
“I think you’ll do well. I’ve seen many nobles and many small-scale families. But, Lady Elizabeth, you’re no longer at the level of a small-scale family.”
That was enough.
My older sister.
He is called a genius by the world.
There’s a reason why he’s called a genius.
I just kept walking.
My older sister, who had been crouching down and chatting with us kids, slowly stood up.
The kids and Ron.
And Aveiro and Philip.
Everyone takes a couple of steps back.

Just the two of us.
A road just for me and my sister spread out before me.
I asked.
“Marquis, do you want to do it?”
The older sister with a serious expression closed her mouth for a moment and then clenched her teeth.
That’s a warning.
It was an action that signified determination.
My sister said.
“……huh.”
“Do you think you can do it?”
“……huh.”
“There’s this thing called prejudice. As the first female marquis on the continent, there’s going to be a lot of gossip. Do you think you can do well?”
My sister’s eyes gradually gained strength.
“I can do it. It’s okay if people talk behind my back, because I’ve already done it a lot. And I want to do it, and I think I should do it.”
I looked at my sister in silence.
“Just because? Do you feel like you have to? Do you want to?”
“No, it has to be me.”
“Why doesn’t it have to be you? There’s Peyron and I too?”
I wonder if you understand what I mean.
My sister laughed at my words, which seemed a little aggressive.
“I don’t know the details. But each person has their own unique ability.”
It’s a bowl… … .
It seems like it’s been a long time since I’ve heard that word.
“My bowl is like this, but yours?”
I was speechless.
This is ambiguous.
I don’t even know how wide my bowl is.
“I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but I know this much.”
“What is that?”
“You won’t be obsessed with the title of Marquis.”
Look at this.
They say family isn’t family for nothing.
“I have never had anyone like Aveiro over there under me. I couldn’t have anyone under me.”
I listened in silence.
“But you left it. That’s the difference between you and me.”

“… … .”
“And, as an older sister, I can’t hold my younger sister back.”
I ended up laughing.
Let’s turn our head to the side and look at our teacher.
He is looking blankly at our older sister.
It’s a meeting between two beauties.
This looks like it would be quite a picture.
I just took a step forward.
“If you’re going to do it, do it properly. I told you before. You can’t be a child forever.”
My sister nods with a stern expression.
“That’s fine. Tell me what you need. I’ll give you people, money, supplies, weapons, and armor.”
“… … You’ve changed a lot.”
By the way, I forgot to say this.
Yeah, all the kids are gathered here.
Let’s just say it all here.
“I am a regressor.”
Everyone’s mouth is wide open.
You’re saying that here?
That’s the kind of expression you have.
What’s new?
You all know I’m leaving.
“As of now, it’s been about 19 years and 10 months? Or maybe 9 months, exactly, when I regressed.”
“… … .”
-… … .
“… … .”
“What’s going on? Why is the atmosphere like this? Everyone who knows me knows, right? I told you I’m a regressor.”

Clark Valanti couldn’t help but ask:
“what?”
“… … The youngest master has arrived as a marquis.”
Clark shakes his head.
The reason I asked back was not because of what I said earlier.
What follows is what follows.
“You rode the carpet and arrived at the rose garden… …no, landed.”
“under…….”
Advertisements
I didn’t mishear.
He said he came down from the sky on a carpet.
The youngest?
And that too while the academy semester is in progress right now?
That wasn’t the end.
“I brought along about three little kids, along with the deputy captain, Mr. Gonzalez.”
“Gonzalez, why is Gonzalez with the youngest?”
The knight could not answer.
Not exactly.
No, what do I need to know?
How would I know that?
“Wait, wait.”
Clark shakes his head.
Something is strange.
No, that’s weird.
If you’re here, at least show your face to let people know you’re here.
How dare you chat in the rose garden?
Clark Valantier felt this way.
What do you want to do?
This is exactly how I feel.
“Call the youngest here right now.”
The knight bowed deeply and immediately moved to the rose garden.

“Ron probably knows, Aveiro and our little ones probably know, and my sister and Philip over there are the only two people who don’t.”
The expressions on the two of them were blank, and the expressions on the rest of them were not much different.
that.
Was it okay to say it so easily?
That’s the look on your face, but like I said before, I told you to leave?
I don’t hide that kind of thing.
The reason I haven’t said anything until now is because I just didn’t ask.
It’s really weird to go and talk without even being asked.
I may be a loner, but I’m not a weirdo.
I turned my head slightly and looked at my older sister.
My sister decided and resolved to become a Marquis.
Honestly, age is an issue, but age is not a problem at all if the people around you help you and support you.
Advertisements
And our older sister.
Even if I say it myself, she is quite a capable woman.
Skip everything else and just take responsibility.
If you showed the people of Yeongji half the sense of responsibility you showed me, you might be given the nickname of Saint.
Still, I have to tell you what I have to tell you.
I thought so.
“Sister?”
“huh?”
“Come here for a moment.”
I took my sister and approached the well where I had previously broken Peylon’s head.
At that moment, when we were sitting there and about to talk.
“Three Princes!”
I missed my timing because of a loud voice coming from somewhere.
