Until I, A Fallen Nobleman, Was Called the Great Sage With My Hazure Skill “Super Jack-of-All-Trades

“Teacher ……!”

“Hello, Ryuuze! Do you feel sick or something, my lord?”

“I, I guess …… Do you feel sick, too? …… Hmmm, I guess you’re crazy?”

“I’m not denying it.”

“Kuh …… You’re speaking nonsense ……”

Burao grits his teeth at the sarcastic reply. But why did the teacher come here? Ryuuze’s face seemed to brighten up a little from its previous sullenness. As he listens, teacher opens his mouth.

“I’m just passing by. It’s our duty to check the kids before they leave to make sure they’re not in danger. Here.”

Tigre pointed to a woman. She didn’t seem to notice us, but I think that was …… brother’s homeroom teacher. As she disappeared across the street, Brao narrowed his eyes and then said.

“…… You’re such hard workers, huh? I don’t like the part about nobles and commoners are equal in the academy, but I’m sure the students and their parents will be relieved.”

“Yes. No matter what your status is, you are still a child. I’m going on patrol too. I don’t know what’s wrong with you, but please take care of yourself.”

“Mm.”

Tigre-sensei left the place with a scary smile in his eyes. As he came towards me, I quickly disappeared and jumped to the roof of the hospital. Downstairs, Brao sniffed and stared at teacher, then quickly disappeared into the hospital with Ryuuze.

“–It’s unusual for you to bring someone. Irumi, please lower your end of day tag.”

“Yes.”

As I was lying face down on the roof, I heard the voices of Retzel and the lady who was at the reception desk the other day coming from a room on the second floor.

“Today we’re going to check on the situation. Did Lars come since then?”

“……!?”

“Let’s see, he hasn’t come. Maybe he didn’t think that you and I were connected? …… Just because you’re afraid doesn’t mean you can’t be suspicious if you come here this often, don’t you think?”

“I-It’s okay! It’s not a problem if I tell people I’ve been sick lately!”

I was convinced that there was a connection between him and Brao, and I couldn’t stop my mouth from loosening.

I’m really glad I took action today. The only regret is that there is nothing in this world that can record it.

But why did he bring Ryuuze here, I wonder? I’m sure he heard what I said to Ryuuze and acted on it, but I wonder if he’s thinking about telling someone about this connection.

That’s what Retzel seemed to think, too.

“So, why did you bring your son here? I don’t think it’s good for either of us to know that we’re connected, do you?”

“…… You’re right. But he has been following me lately. I’ve decided it’s better to talk about it rather than have people sneak up on me and see what I’m up to.”

“Hm, So that’s how it is. Ryuuze-kun, right? My name is Retzel. I’m a friend of your father’s, and after much deliberation, I had no choice but to sacrifice the former lord’s son.”

You are so brash to say such disgusting things …… Why should my brother sacrifice himself to satisfy Brao’s desire? Just as I was about to step in and magically wipe out Retzel, Ryuuze opened his mouth fearfully.

“W-Why did you decide to help father with his plan?”

“Because I thought it would be fun, you know?”

“Wha- ……?”

“Like I said. I like to see people suffer. Especially when they’re in despair over something they can’t control. The former lord and his wife had a good look on their faces. When I told them that their son was not going to make it ……”

“Enough, stop it. My son is frightened.”

I glanced in from the edge of the window and saw Ryuuze lying face down with a pale face. Ryuuze ……

“Pardon me. If you’re going to be a lord in the future, I thought you should get to know who I am, right?”

“That’s what It means. With Doctor with us, we are in safe hands.”

“…… Does father-“

A gentle, but confused Brao put his hand on his shoulder. At that moment, Ryuuze turned to Burao and said something to him.

“What did father do before he became a lord? Did you not have enough money to become a lord?”

“Mm …….”

At Ryuuze’s words, he realizes that he had no interest in what happened to Brao before he became a lord. Ryuuze looks straight at Brao, whose expression is cloudy.

“…… You don’t need to know.”

“Why not! You told me that Lars’ family was poor, but I think we were actually poor too! If that’s the case, then it’s wrong for us to despise the commoners, and father, who made them poor, is in no position to call Lars and his family poor!”

“Shut up ……! All you have to do is shut up and listen to what I say!”

I’m amazed that Ryuuze, at the age of ten, can think that much. I wonder if he consulted anyone? I don’t think I can dislike this guy for saying all this when I’m not looking …… I feel like I’m going to cry a little bit, and then Retzel says in a troublesome tone.

“Well, there’s no way he can tell you. Your father is–“

“Hey, stop it!?”

“He was originally a servant of the former lord.”

“What!?”

Retzel narrowed his eyes and looked at them with a disgusted smile, then paused for a moment before continuing his words.

“…….”

“Kuku, of course he is. If it weren’t so, it would be impossible to poison the lord’s son. But what about a trusted and proven servant? It’s not hard to get close to him by taking a few glances. Just scare one of the maids, you know.”

“So it’s you! You’re the one who threatened my father ……! Ugh ……!?”

“S-Stop it Retzel!”

“…… Don’t get too rattled, kid, okay? I’m in charge of Brao’s life and death. Of course, you too as the son.”

Plunk ……”

The suddenly leopard-like Retzel grabbed Ryuuze’s chest and pushed him into a chair, bringing his face close to his own. In his free hand was a vial of green liquid that he had been holding for some time.

“……!?”

“D-Don’t do that …… don’t touch Ryuuze!”

“That’s a good face, Brao. If you don’t train him properly, I don’t know what will happen to Ryuuze-kun.”

“Do you understand Ryuuze? You have to give up being friends with Roen’s son. If you are selfish, he will kill you.”

Ryuuze nodded helplessly, as if he had no choice. That Brao, he’s talking like he’s the victim when he’s the one who sowed the seeds…

But there was a harvest. That vial, if I take it and have it [appraised] somewhere…? No, that won’t prove that he tried to kill my brother…

Either way, I’m taking that one with me.

Will I be able to do something with the rest of the Invisible, but I’m going to stay low-key after Ryuuze and the others leave. It’s not that I don’t take into account the fact that I can disappear, and the lock on the locked cabinet is in the right place, so I was able to retrieve the medicine.

“Yes! I’ve achieved my one of my goal! No, I see …… Can I use this technique if I do this?”

I came up with a problematic but reliable method.

I’m sorry for the delay, I didn’t have time for my friend’s visit, but I’ll be back on track tomorrow!

Thank you for reading!

“Looks like I don’t have time”

Well, these things happen …… But I was able to play the game ……

“I’ve fucked up so badly ……”
