I kept being called incompetent at home, but it seemed super competent globally

Oh, my God!? Is that the Sword Saint!?

Castle of the Valdemar family.

In front of the gate leading to it, Sister Liza secretly revealed her identity.

Suddenly, the guards are making a scene, surrounding us with straw.

"... I usually hide my identity, so don't make so much noise."

"This is rude, but I can't believe the Sword Saint...."

“I've been here before, don't you remember?”

"Unfortunately, there has been a lot of change of servants lately." I'm just beginning to work, too. ”

A guardsman with a look of apologies.

... the incomprehensible tax hike, is something unexpected happening to the Valdemar family?

We looked at each other unexpectedly.

After all, I have a slightly unpleasant feeling about this.

Yeah, but I can't go back here.

Having said that, Sister took the dagger out of her pocket.

The pattern is engraved with the emblem of a lily representing the Kingdom of Winter.

Only the Sword Saint is allowed to have this gift from the royal family.

It doesn't seem to have that much performance as a sword, but it's not enough to prove my identity anymore.

"This is...! I will tell Master Leonidas in a moment!"

"Yeah, I'll take care of it."

The guard faded into the castle in a hurry.

After a while, a girl in a waiter's suit appeared.

It has an elegant attitude, and it is worthy of her to be placed in the Valdemar family.

However, the wind was a little strange.

He wore a white mask and completely covered his face.

Nice to meet you, Taylor, the chamberlain.

"... this is Liza, the Sword Saint." And this is my brother and his people. ”

We slowly lowered our heads when our sister introduced us.

Perhaps they were a little drawn back to Mr. Taylor's figure, but Kurta's expression was only modest.

Mr. Taylor then brushed up his long hair and smiled gently.

”Fufu, you're surprised to see this figure, aren't you?”

Yeah, well.

"It was Leonidas' order." If you are a woman, please wear this. ”

Then Taylor offered his sister and Kurta a mask similar to his.

Suddenly, a wrinkle appeared between the eyes of the sisters.

"... why do I have to wear this?"

"It must be incomprehensible. But this is the rule of my castle.”

"It can't be helped..."

Nino wore a mask while muttering his displeasure.

After confirming that there is no abnormality, Kurta-san and her sister are also urged to wear them.

"What the hell is this for?"

"But it might be a bit interesting. It's like a costume party."

"Is that right? I'm just in the way."

Even though she was not satisfied, Kurta-san was somewhat amused.

As soon as the women are finished wearing their masks, we step inside the castle.

"Oh... this is amazing!"

"Wow, that's a little scary, isn't it?"

As Liza-san said, the castle was renovated in luxury.

The walls, floors, and ceilings are carefully decorated.

In addition, there are a number of artworks all over the place.

That ornate flower painting on the wall... is it the work of Gohong?

If it were real, 100 million would be nonsense if it went to auction.

Please, this way.

Eventually, he was guided to a room on the top floor of the castle.

When I opened the heavy door made of ebony, a woman in a dress immediately jumped into my eyes.

Nice to meet you, Leonidas.

When she called herself that, she held onto her skirt and bowed gracefully.

"This is the head of the Valdemar family..."

Rowga-san said that she was the most beautiful woman on the continent, but she had the appearance to make me think that it might be the case.

Long, glossy purple hair, pale skin and vibrant deep red lipstick.

Almost all of the elements seem to become vulgar, but they are neatly stuck together.

Your body shape is also very sharp, and the curves are shiny.

Rowga-san's eyes were chasing the huge swell swayed by bowing.

"Rouga..."

"Oh, I'm sorry! It was so beautiful, I followed you."

"It's okay." It's only natural that you fall in love with my beauty. ”

That said, Ms. Leonidas smiles gracefully.

You're kind... you seem like a habit.

Eventually, she starts talking about it even though she hasn't heard it.

"I will be thirty-eight even now." But you look lightly ten years younger, don't you? To maintain this beauty and body line, we put in a lot of effort every day-- "

"... oh! It's been a long time, Lord Leonidas!"

Leonidas has stopped.

Liza greeted her loudly to end her story.

Have you finally returned to me?

Leonidas stops and smiles gracefully again.

"Excuse me." So, what can I do for you, Lord Liza? "

"Actually, there is something in the Valdemar family collection that I would like to give to you."

"... Huh?"

Leonidas frowned and whispered in a low voice.

There was a dark light in the back of his eye.
