Chapter 21 – Finding Love is Hard for an Otaku in Any World
AN: The MC sees a lot of status fences in society.
A new researcher was dispatched from the royal capital to the magic academy.
She will be the one who’ll be in charge of the research of the artificial constructs that work without magic crystal(battery).
It seemed that many people in Torquiva would raise their hands if they were told that they would be promoted and sent to the royal capital but it seems that there were no suitable candidates within the range of Professor Marino’s influence.
However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t call someone from the royal capital….but it’s not something that a student like me can comment on.
The first thing that came to my mind is the fact that the person who traveled all the way here has an unexpected career.
「My name is Laura Slayra. I’m new to being a researcher so please take care of me from now on.」
A number of medals are hanging from her chest.
And an h.o.n.o.r.a.r.y. d.i.s.c.h.a.r.g.e. saber on her waist.
The researcher that came to us was an ex-military officer.
She’s probably a big shot.
Her eyes were soft but her blonde hair, which is tied in a bun, gave her a stern impression.
However, the army huh…..
Well, the research on magic construct without magic crystal must have struck the attention of the military so I guess it can’t be helped.
I’m not going to show off and I’m just going to work under her and be done with it.
I’ll take it easy this time.
However, school is just school.
As long as I get good grades, I can take it easy.
However, personally, there are a lot of things I want to do.
For example, apart from my own ambitions, I have a duty to pass on my “Schenker Family as mages” to the next generation.
And I hope it’s not an obligation.
Even if I don’t get married, as long as I earn enough money, I can live as I like, can’t I?
At least that’s what I used to think.
I used to think this was a simpler world.
However, after I entered the laboratory, I was rubbed and rubbed by the noble society, and I came to understand a lot of things.
This world is not sweet even to nobles.
Great power comes with great responsibility.
For example, let’s just say there is a commoner mage called K-kun who graduated from the academy at age 18.
He became a government official, did his job, and before he knew it, he was already 22 years old.
Compared to commoners, he earns a lot of money and he can even live a carefree life.
Of course, as a mage, he can’t get a commoner as a wife but he’s free to go to a brothel every day.
He can enjoy his youth as much as he wants.
Then, out of the blue, his boss came to him with a proposal for an arranged marriage.
Moreover, the other party is someone 10 years older than him and even has a c.h.i.l.d.
Although he is a mage, he is still almost a commoner. His boss is a noble so there’s no way he can refuse.
Thus, he came to have a family and later joined the nobles and had two children.
Happy end.
It happens a lot.
It is very common.
The nobles do this with g.o.o.d. i.n.t.e.n.t.i.o.n.s. to the young men they have laid their eyes on.
If you don’t like it, you can refuse.
They say that but they don’t mean it.
I’m the 3rd son of a prominent local family.
Even if I were a noble, I’m a perfect candidate for a marriage proposal like that and I’m sure it will happen soon.
For that reason, I’m looking for someone I can marry at my young age of 13.
If I’m going to get married anyway, I want an unmarried woman who won’t complain even if her husband doesn’t work and devotes himself to his hobbies….
By the way, a girl in my class that I targeted said this to me as she dumped me.
『All you can talk about is play.』
She’s right.
However, what else is fun to do in this culturally backward era….excuse me.
Because of that, I make a tearful effort every weekend to show up at the salon, go to a tea party where hobbyists gather, and even send poems to the girl next class.
However, my efforts don’t seem to be bearing fruit. Is it because I’m not trying hard enough?
Or do they think I’m gross because all I can talk about is plays?
And so, while I was at home, agonizing over my lack of success in my marriage activities, my school friends, Jinni and Ehra, came to visit me.
「I heard you’ve been trying so hard to find a girlfriend lately.」
「Jinni-kun, don’t say that.」
「Have you two married bastards come here to laugh at me?」
I’m saying this but the truth is, I don’t know anything about Jinni’s fiancee or even Ehra’s fiancee.
The fact that these two, who usually talk about things they don’t need to say, don’t want to say anything about it must mean they treat it as a landmine topic.
I would hate to see my friendship with them fall apart before they even get married.
「I thought of introducing someone to you today.」
「She seems to be someone with quite a reputation. They said she’s a lady of the inner window.」
TN: a lady from a good family and was brought up with the tenderest care
「They say she has beautiful chestnut hair down to her waist and she looks like the goddess from the play “Onion Empress”.」
「Why is a woman with that kind of reputation unmarried?」
Just that alone, I think it already stinks of trouble.
There’s a reason why she’s a leftover.
「I heard that she has a condition for marriage and she can’t find a man who can meet her expectations.」
「What is the condition?」
「I don’t know.」
「They said she’ll tell you if you meet her.」
How fluffy….
However, I’m curious.
To be honest, I’m clinging to the last straws of hope.
「I’ll take some poetry with me just in case.」
「Yeah, who knows if that’s the condition.」
「Yeah….let’s just go and see what happens.」
Basically, we are a very cautious group of people.
Half in anticipation, half out of curiosity, we headed immediately to the house of the rumored young lady.
The house is located on the south side of Torquiva. It was built in a strict samurai house and there’s even a training ground.
As a prelude, I had my slave Chicken hand over a poem to the young lady of house and….
I got an unexpected reply.
「She said she’s going to meet you.」
「Eh? Really?」
「Ojousama is waiting in the garden.」
We were led by a strong-looking butler with a straight cut on his face. We managed to meet the lady of the inner window at a ridiculous speed.
After passing through a small sliding heavy gate, we are led to the rugged training ground right next to it and made to wait.
I mean, how is this a garden!
「Who’s the one who sent me the poem?」
The lady in question appeared with great speed.
My two friends pointed at me side by side.
Given the speed she showed, the impression of being a young lady of the inner window has already disappeared but it is true that she’s a beauty.
Her auburn eyes are so big that they look as if they might fall out and they match her stern-looking, dark eyebrows.
Her rumored, rich chestnut-colored hair was tucked into a net and a jet black helmet was placed over it.
Is that the recent fad….?
Her chest was covered with armor so it was hard to tell but her long slender legs made her standing posture as beautiful as a painting.
If you’re going to ask if she’s as good as her reputation, she is….
Though in a little disturbing way.
「I don’t understand poetry.」
「Oh, is that so…..」
「I don’t know anything about play, cooking, singing, not a drop of it. I have zero knowledge about embroidery, flower arrangement, or tea ceremony…..」
The young lady talks in a small voice.
「Well, that’s what makes who you are, isn’t it?」
「But I like swords.」
「Heh, heehhh」
「So………….」
She pulled out a silver sword from her waist and said this with burning compassion.
「I decided to marry a sword.」
Carved with a dragon, it shines through the sunlight.
At that moment, not knowing who started what, the three of us ran like rabbits.
「Don’t let them escape without undergoing this lady’s ritual!」
「Prepare the arrows!」
「Rope! Use rope!」
We ran frantically through the battlefield filled with noisy voices.
If I hadn’t been reborn as a healing magic genius, what could have happened……
I’ve already learned my lesson about ladies of the inner window……
AN:
Great Nobles > Noble Family > Noble (Mage) >>>>>>>> Commoner (mage) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Commoner
The world is like that.
Sawadi-kun has had a lot of senpai since entering the lab.
