At night, it cools down as soon as possible.

I borrowed my coat from Sansa's knight and waited now or now for dinner to be served.

"Dear Sansa! Can I also add all the secret meat I got in the Circuista!? Slough's young lady can't wait either, so let's go here at once!

But it's a handy thing for the knights who are putting ingredients in a big pot and preparing dinner. You guys work with Shakishaki, and you're lively.

It will be because those who supervise them are well educated.

Charlotte's helping out, and I'm not just watching, so I'm just trying to help you with dinner for a little while...

"Young ladies rest there! We'll make it!

Look, this is right. This is what happens when you sit down.

"Denilo, Sansa's staring at us."

"Because that's a pose! Young ladies don't have to worry!

Some of the knights were faces I had seen too. I was in the main building of the Duke's Territory until I went to the Kursch School of Magic. There are many people I know.

Deniro is a knight about five years older than me. I've been a moodmaker since I spent time as a knight apprentice in the Duke's territory, and that still seems the same now.

Besides, the knights are surprisingly favorable to me, who was a problem child in the Duke's house.

"Hey, Denilo! Don't make Slough sweet!

"Dear Sansa! That being said, isn't it Sansa who told you to give Master Slough a break!

"I didn't say a word about that!

"When you're with Sansa as much as we are, the atmosphere tells you."

I'm a duke, but I'm not the supreme power in this place.

That's the guy over there. Now he is a working woman, mixed among the knights. His name is Sansa. That's my sister. That's what I say, but humans are too much.

"... I don't know yet. I'm starving."

A number of meats and vegetables thrown into a large pot.

I can't help but simmer the big pot that the knights stir because it boils down to a good smell this way.

I'm the only one.

Keep sitting in the stump waiting for dinner to be served.

Oh, my stomach rang.

"Dear Slough, if you soften up, you won't get away with the rice. We're almost there."

"I might run away. I might have legs in the pot, someone might even eat my share"

"... he said he wouldn't run away. Oh, Lord Slough forgot about the lack of eyes for rice."

"Buhii"

There's nothing to worry about right now because one of Shoya's things is cleared up.

I could be with Charlotte, and my appetite is on the rise.

"-- Mr. Slough's minute. I brought it, wow! No one will take it!

Ugh, take a sip. All right, the soup has a firm meat flavor melting out. Then he carries the meat in the plate to his mouth with a silver fork. It contains plenty of vegetables and potatoes as well as meat. Taste melted every time it was chewed.

"Yum! Yum! Charlotte, take your place!

"Huh!? Have you eaten already?!? Isn't that a bite!

"Charlotte, take your place!

On the stump, next door is Charlotte.

Charlotte looks at me like I'm in total trouble for dinner.

"Denilo! Eat! Don't leave me, eat!

"Dear Sansa! Why do you have so many vegetables just for me! Mr. Cocktow, please don't laugh. Please help me! I put meat in Slough's young lady's plate. I was watching! This is discrimination!

"Don't say anything extra! You like and dislike too much!

Eating dinner, soothing bickering is taking place all over there.

I was along the border on my way to the Circuista Grand Labyrinth. I was targeted for carriage luggage or something, but now I don't have to worry about that.

There will be no one in this world to attack those people in that jacket whose family crest is engraved and even indicates that they are knights of the Duke's family.

Sansa also seems to have fun with the knights of the troops.

Sansa is remarkably popular among the Duke's family from the soldiers, I feel like I understand. I don't know what Sansa's gonna say, it's solid on and off.

Tighten when tightening, and loosen firmly when relaxing.

There are many knights and soldiers who think like their own daughters about Sansa, just for the record.

"Dear Sansa, aren't you popular?"

"Charlotte. As a matter of fact, I wonder which is more popular with soldiers, me or Sansa."

……

"He said it wasn't something to worry about. Sansa, it's your choice. I wish he could be the next Duke. Then you won't have time for me..."

Well, Sansa taught me about my squire change.

I dared cut in from Charlotte to a story I didn't try to hear.

The story about me and Charlotte is about nature.

"There are no more flickers, because I hear that they used to be no less noble than the Dukes! I wonder what Mr. Mint is like."

My squire candidate's name is Mint, I hear.

Sansa told me his name, and I thought he was a civilian, but not at all. By the time I met Charlotte, she seemed to be the son of a grand aristocratic flicker who Her Majesty had crushed her.

So before the house was torn down, the name was Mint Flicker.

"I heard all the people in the Flicker family headed for the Free Union... the Sansa guy. Where have you found the Flicker family?"

"Master Sansa praises you so much, you must be amazing..."

Apparently the new squire candidate is at the Krush School of Magic and is waiting for my return.

And in the carriage, Sansa said which girl named Mint I deserved a squire. Because Sansa's narrative has been enough for Charlotte, who has been my squire, to take into account, Charlotte doesn't seem to be in great shock.

But what kind of a mint is that tough Sansa pushing her heartbeat......

"Oh, even Master Sansa is secretly avoiding carrots! Tell me not to like or dislike it. It's not there! Look at Slough's young lady! I'm eating without liking or disliking it! Or is the tenth cup just the same for the young Slough!

The journey to the return of Daris was much easier than the journeys I took with Shoya and Alicia.

Whatever it is, because the knights of the Duke's house will do it. Plus the knights and Sansa's entanglement was fresh and interesting.

And when I entered Darris territory, I noticed one discomfort.

Sansa is a very busy person in a position unlike me.

I thought Sansa would be gone from the carriage as soon as she entered Darris territory, but she was in the same carriage as me the whole time.

Huh... why? I guess it's because I've been staring at Sansa's face the whole time.

"You accept mint, to see it through. Slough, you're gonna say the right thing if I weren't here, and you're gonna drive Mint back to Duke territory."

... have you found out?

I'm returning to the Kursch School of Magic in the next story.

[Dear reader, please]

I read the piece and said, 'That was hilarious!' If you think Slough's squire candidate is good, it would be very encouraging if you could support him with the three stars below!
