Me, Adventurer! - Undoubled Skills Are Flat Magic

"Lady, please come back.

"I don't like it.

It's been this repetition for a long time. No progress at all.

The place is back inside the inn again. The office in the back of the lobby, plus the reception space on the corner. It has a low table and two seated sofas, the perimeter of which is separated by collisions. This office, usually Mr. Lloyd or Augusta, is working, but now he's having his seat removed. If you ask me, I won't be able to tell you a bad story.

Me and Cristella are sitting on the couch, Mr. Benjamin about Jii across the street. Everyone else is listening across the clash. I know you're behaving badly, but I know how you feel, so I pretend not to look at you. Woo is at my feet, which is a fixed position.

Mr. Benjamin said he was a guardian when Cristella was Marquis Orderly. I thought you would. When I say lady at home, there's only Christella.

Slightly less than 160cm tall, meaty. He's probably over 60, but he never has a crooked hip, and his footprint is solid. I've been running a lot. My hair is white and I still have a few muscles or brown ones. Is the ground hair brown? He caresses the hair carefully and makes it all-back. I don't have a mustache. He seems to be shaving carefully. Slightly eagle-nosed, looks like a serious German. It's my personal assumption.

The outfit is a simple black trio with a white shirt in stand collar and a black butterfly tie. Everything looks like a butler. I had woven a cape on it until earlier, but now I'm taking it off and putting it on my knees.

"Lady, please listen to me. The survival of the Marquis depends on the lady.

"That's not what I found out. In the first place, it was your father... the Marquis Hugo who unilaterally insulated me. Don't you think bugs are a little too good, like keeping them as slaves and calling them back after more than six months?

"As I've said many times, things have changed.

"So I'm saying that I didn't know about the situation.

Cristella is pointing that way at Mr. Benjamin, who is facing straight over the table… but the conversation, which is not even discussed, has been going on for more than half an hour. There's no way we can just go in there. Trouble.

The cause that both of them could rub, it was the Marquis' house commotion.

◇

The Marquis Hugo family, the home of Christella, is a grand nobleman with a great barn zone on the plains west of Wang Du. Also known as the "Food Bank of the Kingdom". The territorial capital, San Palace, is the second largest city in the country, with a plain stretching at the foot of the North Wall Mountains and a port town to the south of it. Food harvested in the territory is widely transported not only to the Wang capital but also to other cities. He is one of the greatest nobles in the kingdom. I heard that from Cristella before.

Cristella hits the second daughter of the Hugo family. Marquis Hugo has a genuine wife and a side chamber, and Cristella says she is the second child born to a genuine wife. Three brothers in all. He says it consists of his oldest brother, "Aristotle," and his belly brother, "Damon," just like his belly sister, "Brenda. I hear Brenda's not already married to another house.

Nobility in this country is based on direct male inheritance. In the case of the Hugo family, Aristotle, the first-born son of his rightful wife, has the supreme right of inheritance. Beyond that, following Damon and Cristella, Brenda, who married another family, already had no inheritance rights. Men first, firstborn first.

However, there are exceptions to this succession order. It's magic.

In order for the nobility to defend its status and authority as an aristocrat, its power needs to be shown internally and externally. That can be, or financial or military power again, but the most important thing in this country is magic, no matter what. The secret of mystery, which is supposedly only available to nobles. Well, there's actually an exception: me and my buddies, the ex-slaves. The magic that makes us divine and easier to govern is the most important element that makes nobility a nobleman.

Only Aristotle and Cristella can use magic in the Hugo family. Apparently the grandfather of the deceased predecessor Lord was a wizard of the earth, but he can't use the Marquis, who is the current Lord. Aristotle says he's also a user of dirt magic. Separate genes, huh?

I don't think there's going to be a home commotion or anything like that because Aristotle, who has the highest inheritance rights, can use magic, but it's the world that's going to happen that I didn't think would happen.

The war is still ongoing, but the Hugo family said the Aristotle was to lead an army. Apparently the reason is that when the Marquis himself marches, his internal affairs lag behind and his logistics in the country will be affected. The Earl of Bullhead here at Bordersetz hasn't marched for the same reason, and that's fine.

The problem was because Aristotle went missing at the front of the war. No, instead of a problem, you're a big problem. Damn, this war makes a commotion everywhere. Jerkin, the murderer, needs a kick-ass drop.

Aristotle, assigned to the eastern side of the Lute Hainan, was apparently leading the ship to hit Nolan's defeat. He said that it was a placement because he was quite accustomed to handling and directing ships because of the traces of territory that required port towns.

But they were manipulated by unfamiliar inland sea tides and climates, and they were manipulated like good with the pirates of the divine Nolan, who knew all about the inland sea, and the achievements were not (silly). You're right about what I hear over here.

The commander, who boiled his business to a never rising effect, jumped at the telecom about the pirate's aside just in time (...). Aristotle was promoted to an assault operation planned without a busy backup, and was the Aristotle who led the fleet into Azit as directed... but it was a trap, as you can see.

Save the details, but the fleet you attacked is devastated. There was no sign of Aristotle among the crew who survived slightly. From the circumstances, they say survival is hopeless.

The tragedy brought about plunged the Marquis into havoc. The whole house is cracked because of who's going to take over the trail.

Side chambers and their sympathizers naturally pushed their second son Damon to the cauldron. That's natural if you think about it in due course. The second son of a nobleman is only a spare for his eldest son.

But the guys who were originally attached to the eldest son naturally rebelled against this. Because if the Damons take real power, they will be driven into idle employment.

That said, we need grounds to disagree. Aristotle needed a new flag head to replace Aristotle. So it was Kristera who stood the white feather arrow.

In the first place, Kristella was not expelled because of Kristella. It was because there was unbearable pressure from the second prince (idiot) and hence from the royal family. Now the second prince has lost his real power (although he has actually even lost his life), and his parent, the King, is also in the family. There's no one else you have to fight.

"Recall Cristella and let her inherit the title". That's all Aristotle had left.

"Nobility must remain noble. And it is nothing short of magic that is adding nobility to the nobility. Only a lady can use magic in the Marquis now. The future of the Marquis rests with the lady.

"So you're saying I'm not from the Marquis already, am I? Just a slave Christella. That's who I am now.

All the time, the story is parallel. He doesn't have any intention of going back to his parents' house. Even if you go back, you will only be used as a tool for political strife, and you will be fighting with your sister and brother. Actually, she's a smart Christella, so maybe she's also concerned about the Marquis losing her power because of the house commotion. It's not uncommon for a nobleman not to be able to use magic, and I suppose he thinks it's okay for his brother to carry on the trail.

"Ku, even though what your husband did, it is lamentable that your daughter is a slave or something. Did you say Lord Beat? I'll give you any kind of gratuity, will you let the lady go?

Whoa, you wanna come talk to me here? But... there's nothing I can do, is there?

"I only respect Cristella's will. You don't think you're a slave in the first place, and you say you'll free me whenever you want. I'm not going to give you an order except when you really need it.

Everyone who bought it in the early days, including Cristella, has already been rewarded enough to buy themselves back. It is their own will that they are my slaves. That's not what I can say.

"That's right! I want to be with Master Beat of my own free will! This body, mind, and all your life is dedicated to Master Beat!

"Colour!? It won't! The lady must welcome her rightful son-in-law and inherit the Marquis Hugo family! I will not forgive this jii even if God forbid it, such as dedicating myself to those who will make tomorrow's work a business, such as adventurers!

"You don't have to forgive me! When Lord Beat loses his destiny, I lose my meaning to live too! You're only going to die after yourself!

What? You've heated up something and changed your argument. I'm going back. What's wrong with not going back? And Cristella, that's a heavy statement. Are you getting yandered?

"I won't, I won't! Unless whoever will be the lady's companion will fulfill these Jii glasses! I can't leave my daughter to anyone who doesn't know where the horsebone is!

"Master Beat is not a horsebone or anything! Make me a loving apprentice of Hero Dantes, a powerful adventurer! Be knowledgeable and bright on the economy, and the manager of the commercial guild will surely ask for it! Perfect! There is no doubt that future generations will see you as the star of the epic! There is no one more worthy of my dedication!

Kristera proudly stretches her chest with her left hand on it. No, who is that, someone I know? I know. I'm always a pain in the ass making people do a lot of teasing and donning around. That's not Dekisugi, it's Yarisugi. Horsebones, or stupid bones... well, I'm getting depressed.

"Guru... then let Jii see its power too! I'm not convinced if you check with these eyes! If you are satisfied with this Jii, we will gladly welcome you as your daughter's companion!

"Whatever the difficulty, if you hang it in Beat's hands, there's no making it! I'll take that offer and stand up!

Looks like we've got something to talk about, though... Huh? Is that it? What partner?

... what?
