I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

Episode 121: Family Name Determination

"Hmm, 'face' hey... did you mean 'face' or 'face'? I don't look like a kid, but I hardly ever put the truth on my face, so maybe it suits me."

On the morning of April 6th, the deadline for filing applications, I went to the imperial castle to register my family name and family crest. I was tangled with the king in the interior office. Why are you waiting? Are you free? You don't have to comment on the paperwork you submitted, so get to work.

The king today is not dressed in black gold the other day, but in thick trousers of the same color as the dark blue jacket. Somehow it looks very flat. From the chest, you can see a stunning stretched pectoralis major. Even though it's spring already, I sometimes breathe white in the morning, but isn't it cold? I don't really understand in many ways.

My family name was Face. Baron Beat-Face.

A face is a word used almost synonymously with "plane" in the 3DCG tool. A polygon surrounded by several straight lines. In a sense, the King said the closest thing to the "big face".

"Other things like 'face to face' and a little bit of a different pronunciation, but it also means' trust 'and' faith '."

"Heh, you don't look good at all! You're a god, especially."

"God is not the only one who believes. Believing in your people is important as an adventurer."

"Son of a bitch. You're as cute as ever. Well, the family crest is hexagonal... is this Lily?

The family crest was a radial combination of six diamonds. Depending on what you see, it doesn't look like a lily or an orange infarct. It is surrounded by a double hexagon of thin and thick lines. It's sort of like a magical team design, so I think it would be nice to (...) use it as a wizard's family crest. Well, magic in this world doesn't use magic formations. Ah, but there was something engraved in the magic equipment. Do you want to disassemble it next time?

The gap between the hexagon and the diamond in the enclosure may also represent a subtle, planar triangle. I don't think my descendants can use planar magic, so I don't need to make it stand out, but it's important to keep the house entertained.

In fact, however, this is not really a magic team or a lily, but a deformation of the shape of a "dog". I mean, woo-chan.

Using a dog for design was already a decision in me, regardless of whether it was a thing or a letter. Woo-chan is my dear partner and irreplaceable healing. I can't think of taking this off. I would have liked my family name to be "Dog God." I stopped because I was about to get a gloomy serial murder. Especially after the war. Is it okay if I end the war?

The first thing I thought about was a European-style "stand-up dog", but in any case, it became a crest rather than a family crest, so I decided to use it. This has a different purpose. "Different things" and "different genres" have different meanings.

The next thing I thought about was "meatballs in a circle", and I thought this was a pretty good design, but it was already used. I was a little sorry, but I also wanted to meet the ancestors of the house once. I'm sure you'll get along as a friend who likes Kemo, or "Kemo Fresh" for short.

The third idea I thought about was "Dog in a circle". But this design is the mark on the front door of the house where the dog lives. It is usually a set of "dog caution" paper and one set. Of course, there's not that mark in this world. Nevertheless, it is unacceptable for designers to hold their designs together. I can't use it as it is.

So this hexagonal lily crest is the result.

The five diamonds represent large characters, and the remaining one represents a dot. The circle was also turned into a hexagon, making it even more double.

There is no danger of being sued because the original design no longer remains anywhere. The cliché "From whom" goes through.

"Hmm... I'm sure there were six female slaves walking with you. Does one of these lily petals represent it? Lily is a symbol of a woman. The hexagons that wrap it around you. I don't know if it would be nice to sell to slaves, but it's a family crest that really describes you."

... oh, I see! That's the way to look at it!

Speaking of which, when I showed you the design of the family crest, Christella was strangely excited. Is that why you received it?

... let the truth be buried in darkness. I'm scared if they find out.

"... Your Majesty, it's time to return to your duties. You haven't received the documents you requested yesterday.

When I was entangled with the king, a talented, talented man with neat, all-backed hair called out. Her hair is dark brown mixed with a little white, and her height is slightly too small to reach 180, and she is weak. The official uniform, the white robe, has a lot of small chapters on its chest that indicate that it is an official.

I'm sure he wasn't the head of the administration called the Home Office. In modern Japan, is it the Minister of Finance, Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry, and Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries? Anyway, you're a great man.

His name is Baron Leon-North Shore. But the image I get from the appearance is more like a leopard than a lion. It feels supple and light. White leopard?

I don't know the details, but I've heard rumors of shards. Otherwise, you won't be at the top of politics in Arafat. In Nagata-cho, Japan, which is also known as a nursing home, it is treated more like a boy than a young man.

"Shit, I don't know. Come on, Leon. That's his application the other day. Processing is" A "."

"I understand. Your Majesty will take care of this as soon as possible, so please send us the payment documents."

"Okay, okay. Bye, kid. Now you're a nobleman. Isn't that too flashy?

Well, I was the one who treated him like a kid. Well, that's fine. I'm actually a kid.

The king gives the papers to Baron Northshore and leaves the interior office. The officials temporarily stopped, lowered their heads deeply and dropped it off. Looks like a big company or a big hospital in Showa.

"Well, Baron Beat-Face, the paperwork has indeed been received. After that, I will explain the noble pensions, duties, rights, etc., so please wait on the couch there until the attendant arrives."

Yes, I understand.

……

The finished Baron Northshore stares at me silently. What, are you worthy of a new American aristocrat? I'm a little uncomfortable.

"Um, what is it?

"No, nothing. Okay, I'll do it now."

That said, Baron Northshore handed the paperwork to the official and turned his heel and disappeared to the back door of the interior office. The official in front of the door is lowering his head. I see. A government official asked me to deal with the King and came to help him. If we're dealing with the King, we can't deal with it unless it's at the minister level.

But what was that? Did I have anything to do with him? I don't think I have any idea... well, look. What you don't know when you think about it is useless. If it's important, there will be action from the other side.

I hear about pensions and duties from a clerk who has just disappeared.

The pension is three grand gold coins a year. How carefully can one person live for a year? It is paid once a year as long as the person is alive.

If you are a member of the Adventurer Alliance, it will be transferred to the Alliance's account during the New Year's Eve. However, if I don't show my face to the Adventurer Alliance for more than a year, I will be cut off for lack of information. That's right, it's a profession that doesn't matter when you lose your life.

If you are not enrolled in the Adventurer Alliance, you will be paid at the reunion at the beginning of the year at the Imperial Castle. There are few monsters in winter, so it's convenient for me to travel.

My share of this year will be calculated on a monthly basis and transferred at the end of this month. However, since it is already April, it seems that it cannot be paid for April, and it seems that it will be paid from May. That means two large gold coins for eight months, two-thirds of a year, from May to December. Well, you called for it on April 1st, didn't you? Come on!

Then listen to the duty.

That said, the Baron does not seem to have a heavy duty. To respond to urgent requests from the state and to educate their children. They say I'm still a kid, so I'm exempt from both. You know, expect honest behavior so you don't degrade your country. It's pretty loose.

Instead, if you commit a crime, you are deprived of your title immediately. In some cases, they may face heavier penalties than when they were civilians. Unauthorized departure from the country is said to be punishable by severe deprivation of title. It's tough. We need to be careful when we take requests.

In the end, it's a noble privilege.

There are two main privileges, one is tax exemption.

In the case of a quasi-bar, the head tax that governs the country is free only for the person. More than the Baron, they say he is exempt from taxes even to the blood of the second degree. Grandparents, parents, siblings, children, and grandchildren are not eligible because their siblings and children's spouses are not connected by blood. However, only the head tax is free, and local lords are obligated to pay their own taxes.

The second privilege is this lord's right to set his own taxes, the right to tax.

For example, landlords can set their own "merchant taxes" depending on the number of shop employees and "toll taxes" collected when passing through territory. It seems that it is often said that incompetent lords who mistake this have lost their territory by imposing stupid taxes.

Some of the profits from this taxation right seem to have to be paid to the state, but only more than a territorial countess. I had nothing to do with the Baron. Having territory is troublesome after all. I don't mind the baron. I can't do NAISEI.

It was when the sun circled Jomtien that I left the castle. No, the bureau takes time everywhere.

Anyway, from now on, I will join the nobility and complete the goals of the medium- and long-term growth plan! Hyaahh!

... let's go back to the adventurer business.
