Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite

The first step has been taken

Even as a lord, Rion's daily schedule does not change much. The time spent working as a daytime servant has only turned into a working time as lord.

Training to get up before the dawn is over. It has not changed since we arrived at Bandhu. It can be said that there is more heat than before.

I thought I had gained some strength through fighting monsters at the event. But to help Vincent, Rion was killed by the commander-in-chief of the Knights, with no hands or feet, just as he said.

Even Dine's magic defense, which he thought was a trump card, failed to respond to the commander's sword. Sarah's magic attack hadn't even started.

When I remembered that time, I was ashamed of my thoughts.

I am still immature. You must train more and acquire the power to defeat the Knights of the Guard. I am determined to do so and I am training with heat, but things are not going well.

The limits of being self-taught, honing your sword skills alone. The problems from when he was in the royal capital have not been solved. Is there any good way? Forgetting to shoot his sword, Rion thought.

"Lord"

The voice that was suddenly hung there. Someone knew the voice.

"Cassis?"

"Yes"

Formerly the castle, Cassis, now the captain of the territorial army, stood. Rion is not the one she wants to talk to. Rather than Cassis, Leon came to the territory and hasn't seen any credible people yet.

"What is it for?"

"No. I was just passing by, and there was a sign of a person."

"Really"

If not, the story is over. Leon holds a sword to return to training. After all, what I can do now is just swing. After thinking, I decided to do it.

"Would you like to serve me if you like?"

"eh?"

Cassis has made an unexpected proposal.

"Swing is fundamental, but is it difficult to improve by itself?"

"... Is it strong?"

"I don't know if I'm strong, but I've been learning since I was a child."

"I see ... then, play with me."

You should be able to use it in your own way. For Rion, that's not what I want.

"Hah"

Cassis has come before Rion. The moment he faced his sword, he knew that Cassis was terribly humble.

Fighting spirit rising from the whole cassis. Rion is overwhelmed by that.

"... I'm coming"

The body of Cassis, which slowly advanced, seemed to be in front of him after a moment. The swung sword. Rion suddenly prevented the sword from laying down, but the impact was terrible, and the sensation felt like being crushed.

Barely falling behind on purpose, and escaping from it. Get up using the time you have made.

"Huh ..."

A whispered impression leaked from Cassis's mouth.

"What's" ho ". You were wearing a cat."

"I'm not particularly conscious. For me, who has nothing but a sword, the unskilled castle worker is nervous."

"... the language has changed, so this is just plain."

"Well, after all, it's just a warrior."

It's a sneaky way to say, but I'm proud of Cassis uttering the word warrior.

"... I'm fine. I can't beat the Guard Knight unless I have such an opponent."

"Huh?"

"This time is from here. Come!"

When he screams, imitating the words of Cassis, Rion goes to a close meeting. But Cassis doesn't even allow that. The sword came down from above with tremendous momentum.

Rion managed to avoid it, but Cassis cut her sword sideways to follow Rion.

"……HM"

Cassis mutters small.

"Do not get rid of something. Okay, this time."

Thought, Rion rushed towards Cassis, but this time he was sunk. He couldn't match his sword, and he ate the Cassis sword and fell down.

And from this day, this will be Rion's daily routine.

◇◇◇

"... They don't have daytime wrath."

Rion is complaining while lying in bed. Eriel looks at Rion with interest. With herbs in both hands, a lot of medicinal herbs.

Rion's morning training time has turned into a truly fulfilling one. If every day of injuries can be said to be fulfilling.

It is not only Cassis who is facing Rion. The four of them appear in the forgery instead and meet Rion.

All are the leaders of the six Bandu parties.

In addition to the red party Cassis, there are also the blue party Keel Blau, the green party Mojito Grün, and the yellow party Aperor Kelp.

Although each fights differently, all four are strong. I couldn't measure how much Rion could do, but no matter how many times I attended, I couldn't get any Rion.

It is only one-sided with a sword and full of bruises. The only thing that can be said to be injured is that Airiel cures it magically, but as a result, it's strange that the skin is red and blue with bruises and has different skin colors.

That's why Airiel laughs.

"If you complain so much, stop it."

He knows Lyon's answer, and Eriel says:

"I can't stop. I can't beat them, and I can't beat the Guard Knight."

"Is the Guard Knight stronger?"

"I don't know. I'm so immature that I don't know. But someday I'll be strong enough to see it.

While staring into the air, Rion speaks of her determination. Rion's body was overflowing with killing that Airiel could understand.

"I'm scared. Which Lion is the current Lion? I'm sure it's a lion who grew up in the favela because it's kind of a mess."

"... No, it's not a replacement."

Rial's murder was wiped out by Aeriel's fallen question.

Before leaving the Imperial City, Rion tells Eriel everything. He thought it was sneaky to get married while hiding.

Rion was afraid of Ariel's reaction, but it was a complete lack of concern. Aeriel had just noticed that Rion was not just an orphaned town orphan. Not because magic can be used, but because of that behavior.

Arial's completely unknown knowledge, unusual thinking, and most clearly, the fact that Rion often uses words not used in this country.

A good example is the knowledge of spirits. Despite the word “spirit”, salamander, undine, and sylph are not called this country, or even the whole world.

So, where did Leon get that knowledge? As expected, I was not even convinced of a different world, but when Rion taught me, Aeriel was more than convinced.

Then just accept the words of Rion. In the first place, whatever Rion is, it has nothing to do with Aeriel. That's what Horiya's daughter, Eriel, has come to love about Lion, an orphan in the favela.

"... but Rion"

While staring at Rion's eyes, Eriel looks at her face.

"what?"

"Now your left eye is shining beautifully."

"Hmm? Possibly different brightness between left and right?"

"Yeah ... it's so red, so beautiful."

"... Aeriel"

With her hand on Aeriel's cheek, Rion gently lays her lips. The other hand is Eriel's waist. When you pull your narrow waist down, you change your body and go up.

The hand on my cheek slowly descended down, holding Eriel's chest. The hand that was on my waist also extended further down.

"……Ah"

Finally, Rion returned to sanity. He hurriedly lifted his hand from Eriel's body and lay down.

"Mm ..."

Airiel swells his cheeks, expressing dissatisfaction. Airiel's temptation failed again.

"It's dangerous. I'm almost hugging."

"That's good. We're a couple."

"that's right, but……"

"Rion doesn't like me?"

"No such thing. Even now, I really want to embrace ... that ...?"

Finally, Leon notices. I was worried about being really stupid.

"What's wrong?"

"No, I hate the nakedness of women.

"... what is that?"

Talking about other women doesn't feel good, no matter what the content.

"I'm worried what if I had such feelings for Eriel."

It's an excuse to be an adult. Leon always hated women during sex. The appearance of a woman drowning in desire seemed only ugly.

Even up to his favorite Eriel, Rion was worried about what to do.

"... maybe?"

"Yes, so I avoided that."

"Yes, then?"

"No, I never wanted to hold a woman because I wanted to hold it, but now I want to hold it and my body moved naturally."

"That's what?"

I know what Rion wants to say. Still, Eriel wants to be clear from Rion's mouth.

"... Is it okay to hold it even before adults?"

"fool……"

Smiling with a smile, Aeriel deposits his weight with Rion. The time has finally come to join the two ...

"……painful"

"eh?"

"Body hurts"

I didn't hear what Rion's body said.

"... Well, I won't do it until it's cured."

"Well, there's training every morning."

Even though healed, nothing was hurt by training every morning. How long does it take until the day when it doesn't hurt, that is, when you don't get the swords of Cassis on your body?

"Do not know"

I thought that the long-awaited moment had finally arrived, but this development. Airiel has also been relentless.

Eventually, the day ended with the time of Eriel's sermon to purposely stimulate Rion's painful spots.

◇◇◇

Time of duty as lord. Rion today is in a bad mood than usual.

I finally felt like holding Aeriel, but I couldn't. The frustration is heading to those who have hurt their bodies.

Since Rion knows that it is a perfect eight hits, he does not imitate it as it is. They are just consciously ignoring their existence.

Kashim and his colleagues in the office seem to feel uncomfortable, feeling the atmosphere of Rion. That said, you can't get out of the office. Kashim knows that Leon is what he wants, but that he will not trust him forever.

Only the sound of the pen Rion is running in the heavy air office.

"excuse me!"

The existence that breaks the air has appeared. One of the soldiers guarding the castle gate.

"what?"

"Someone is looking for a visit to the Lord."

"To me? Who is it?"

Since becoming a lord, Rion has been busy trying to keep track of the territory and has had little contact with the outside world. If you come to Rion, your opponents are limited.

Although limited, Rion dared to ask the question.

"I want to do business in this city, like a merchant flowing from the capital city."

"Yes. Some people are strange. I see, I'll see you soon.

"Hah"

Following Rion's instructions, the soldiers who came to tell the visitor return.

"Because it's a visitor, take your seat off."

"Hah"

Those who were in the office also go out of the room as told by Rion. Except Casim.

"... I told you to take off."

"I can't help leaving the Lord alone."

"The other person is a merchant. Don't worry."

"I don't know if I'm really a merchant."

"... I don't need an escort"

"There are many in the world who are stronger than the Lord. I am one of them."

"Guh ..."

For a cassis of Takeshi, he hit a good place. Takeshi's ability is the only thing that Rion recognizes the Kasims. And, Rion does not forcibly deny what he has once acknowledged.

Without further saying, Rion turned to the documents in front of her. He acknowledged that Cassis remained in the room.

After a while, the soldier who just appeared brought a man. After confirming that, Leon stands and sits beside the sofa in front of the desk.

"Please call me here"

"Ha ha ha"

A man sitting on the sofa prompted by Rion. Rion also sat down in front of the man.

"Welcome to my territory. Was it hard on the way?"

"On the way?"

"... the journey to here"

"Oh, but it was interesting to see it in various ways."

"Okay, that's good. You heard you want to do business in this city?"

"General ?? What is it? Is that tone here in fashion?"

"Fool! Don't call me a general! I'm not alone!"

"Oh, oh ..... Nice to meet you, uh ... not a general, what should I call?"

A man who started acting in a hurry, conscious of the presence of Cassis, but it seems that he can not do well. That's right. There is no way that a villain in the favela can behave like a merchant.

"... it's good.

"Excuse me"

Rion also gave up trying to deceive.

"I came here well, but to be honest, I didn't think there would be a false."

Forus is the place where the seats are under and above Lyon. Even if it doesn't matter, he doesn't specialize in open-minded work, as the merchant couldn't do.

"Well, there are so many things. The best thing is to leave the royal capital, I was chosen."

"various?"

"In the beginning, Ain's big brother and Gordon's guy said they would go. As expected, it was no good and everyone stopped."

"Is that so? Those two have to organize their organization in the royal capital."

They are delighted to serve Lion, not to stand on the organization. I don't even know what Rion is all about.

"Yes.

"... The bottom is probably the family's boss. Even the age is higher."

"Yeah, while thinking about the pretexts to hold it down, the seats are neither high nor low, but to me who is allowed to leave the royal capital."

"I see. I understand."

Leon understood that a different type of false was chosen to persuade them.

"That's a little annoying for a while, thank you."

"Oh, how long have you been?"

"here we go?"

"Yes? ん だ Are you going back to the royal capital? が あ る There are various things I want to bring back."

"That's other guys. My job is to start a prostitute in this city."

"In this city?"

This story was not in Leon's plan.

"Yes. It's strange that there is no organizational base in the city below the general's knees. So I will make a prostitute."

"... I don't make any money?"

No one in this city can attend a prostitute. The population is small and everyone is poor.

"Oh, I thought it was in this city, but well, that's it."

"that?"

"What was it? A contact office, a relay station, it looks like that."

"Aside from the liaison office, is it a relay station?"

The number of bases will be increased in the city on the highway connecting the royal capital and Kamark. This is Rion's plan. Kamark is the end point. Rion thought it was worth setting up a base called a relay station there.

Apparently, my subordinates are a little glad that they are beginning to think bigger than themselves.

"That's why you don't have to make money."

"I see. Is the license only for the prostitute?"

"Yes. I'm going to make it feel the same as the royal capital."

"Is it a prostitute, a bar, a bath, or a gambling hall? I understand.

"eh?"

"I'm the lord here. Gambling is officially accepted."

"... Yeah."

The illegal Rion organization is now embarking on legal business, albeit only in form. It is unknown to Lion at this time that this would be the first step in the development of Kamark.

"I have a request"

"What is it?"

"Some of the things you want to bring back to the royal capital. The most important thing is this."

Documents that Rion wrote all the time. Rion points at the thick bundle of paper.

"What is it?"

"Don't worry about the contents. Give this part to Charlotte Lanchester, House of Fatilas. Ein should do just fine."

"Yes"

"The other part is kept, in case Charlotte does not take any action. It also describes what to do."

"I understand"

When Rion says this, he does it. That is Leon's men. But unlike the cassis, those in the favela have the power to apply it.

In fact, it's only after the slums have improved and the confidence in what they've done has grown, but Leon's heads are the only ones who are now. This is the misfortune of Bandis cassis.

Anyway, the reforms of the territorial politics, which had not been able to take any action, are finally taking place. Rion finished thinking and moved on to action.

◇◇◇

One month after Fors visited Lion. One thing has begun in the royal capital. As Rion thoughts.

"The manager has received a new note."

Inspection department of the Knights of the Kingdom. One of the inspectors reported the submission of a note to the Director of Observation.

"... Is this fraud within the aristocracy, out of our jurisdiction"

Looking at the submitted documents, he said, and returned to the subordinate's inspector. With a glance of criticism, what they are accepting.

But even subordinates know that much. Even if you know, there is a reason to report to the Chief of Inspectors.

"The sender is Charlotte Lanchester of the House of Fatiraz."

"Even if the sender is a lord, the same is true."

"Yes, but the pilots are Baron Rion Frey and Mrs. Aeriel."

"……what?"

As soon as we heard their names, the observation director's complexion changed quickly.

"... is Mrs. Aeriel the Eriel?"

"Yes, Baron Rion Frey was his servant, Rion, and Mrs. Aeriel was that Aeriel Woodwill."

"That's right, they were ..."

"What will you do?"

"Start the investigation right now. With complete evidence, stick out to the Home Office."

"Hah"

Inspection departments, who are said to be ruthless, are those who work in that organization are ordinary people. They are only exercising the rigor that their criminals seem to have from their sense of duty and mission.

For them, Vincent and Aeriel's case is a bitter mistake. Even if it's a false accusation, if it's for the kingdom, they don't think anything, but things are not.

Vincent and Aeriel have even become bard songs as protagonists of the tragedy. Obviously, the Inspection Division is sung as a different organization, but it is irrational. And the opposition to the royal family is spreading as much as the song spread.

The kingdom is cracking down on such songs not to spread, but that will also stimulate the public. The influence of Leon's subordinates lit a fire behind the kingdom running out of fire is great.

The impatient kingdom's irritation is directed to the Inspector. That's because it can't be turned to Prince Arnold.

The Inspection Department, with its narrow shoulders, wanted an opportunity to return his stigma so that his throat could reach out.

Rion took advantage of this situation. Even if you are an enemy, you will use what is available even more because you are an enemy. That's it.

Thus, the officials who had been free to do whatever they wanted in Band ド ゥ, including former officials, were to be investigated by the Inspection Division all at once. The Office of Home Affairs, which had jurisdiction, would have been able to erase the matter in advance, but the Knights' Inspection Department could not do anything illegal. The wrongs were revealed one after another, and many were caught.

The biggest embezzlement case in kingdom history. Among the things that have been made public, this one has been called so.
