I figured it out, but the Imperial Palace is big.

If it was a previous life, it would be Palazzo Versailles, Palazzo Ecatelina, or a decorated fountain with trees and statues reminiscent of such a palace, or a tidy garden.

If it's true, I'd like to look around like an officer, but I was led to the Chancellery by an official who works for the Chancellery and went to the Chancellery.

If the official knocked on the door, he just "brought you" as the story seemed to follow, and was invited indoors with nothing in particular.

What I needed inside was a long beard on my long eyebrows, a bright white hair tied behind me, a grandfather like a fairy from what I said in my previous life, and the Han clothes I wore promote its appearance.

The grandfather laughed furiously as he handled his beard.

"Welcome from afar, Count Kikunai"

"I have come to you by summons... Count?

"Yeah? Yeah, I've been processing my hiding and adoption reports yesterday. Not yet, though. Sir is officially in charge."

The wood also remained seated at the shiny desk, and His Excellency the Chancellor advised me to "put it on" and a leather sofa.

And when I thank you, I will hang it with the teachers.

His Excellency the Chancellor looked at the teachers with interest, from under the white eyebrows.

"Sir Shostakovich has had quite a fracture in Sir Saint-Just's case."

"I only hid him, and it was Ah Tan who brought him back to life as a politician... no, Count Kikunai."

"I know you are. The Baron Ballas has done his best for the Count. With a man like that in his cousin, he had trouble excepting him. I haven't forgotten how well you've worked at Corsara."

Kokuri, the teachers and His Excellency the Prime Minister nod.

He stood up from his chair in a good manner and had a majesty that he could not call a very old man.

I don't think I can eat it.

Even though the atmosphere is really soft, obvious and gentle, the eyes hidden behind the bright white, dripping brows sharply identify me.

I don't hate working for it because the country is rich and the people moisturizing is the shortcut to what I want.

I don't, but do they use it conveniently?

With that feeling in my sight, my skin bothers me somehow.

When I imagined removing the feeling of being stroked by the skin like a cat, His Excellency the Chancellor leaked "ho".

"I see, you seem to be better than listening."

"... I didn't come here to be tried?

If you ask him not to put it on the table as much as he can, His Excellency the Chancellor will have another chin beard.

Then when I put my arms behind my back, I looked like a child who had been seen through a prank.

"No, I'm sorry. Seeing a promising young man in the future, it's an old man's bad habit you want to try. Excuse me."

"No......"

His Excellency the Chancellor's sharp eye flickers, hosting a calm light.

As it changed, I sighed inside.

Hard to do.

Are the top nobles just the ones who can't read the bottom of their bellies like this?

Tired already quickly, His Excellency the Chancellor raised the edge of his mouth slightly.

"Well, it's late, shall I introduce myself? We are offshore in Plum Creek. He holds the position of Imperial Chancellor as the head of the Duke of Plum Creek family. My lord is heard by my master, the musician of the court there."

"My master...?

Not Japanese sweets, but my master.

Silence descends into the room for a short time until you understand what it means.

Seeing Mr. Viktor around his neck, motionless as giggly and rusty, he was turning his face in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

"If you hear that the disciple of the same gate is the one who can use it, it's a human being you want to try. He's a funny kid, more than anything."

His Eminence the Chancellor strikes after me in a blatant manner.

Isn't this the same one the Duke of Rottlingen said he was a scary teacher about Dr. Romanov!?

Take me elsewhere, Chancellor, and laugh.

When I change my expression too, I bow with my hands on my chest.

"Again. I came to see you first, Kikunai Family Man and Phoenix Butterfly. The pleasure of what you see has come true."

"Mm-hmm. I thought we'd see each other soon, but I don't think it's too soon. I'm struggling."

It was a laborious voice, but my gaze and expression were in tune with the sound of it, so you probably say it with all your heart.

Whatever the answer, it just makes me feel complicated.

Because I know that, His Excellency the Chancellor does not wait for my answer either, but returns to the leather chair.

Because Teito is south of Kikunai, or it doesn't seem to have much snow, and the hedgerows you can see through the window of the Chancellor's office are thick green.

On both hands, loosely assembled by His Excellency the Chancellor on a candy desk, he mounted a jaw with a rich beard.

"I'm talking about this replacement..."

"Yes."

"I don't think it's sincere to Sir, but it's convenient for the Empire"

I tip my neck, even though the Chancellor tells me with a smile and a good old man's face.

Something touching the slender and skin seemed to be coming in from outside the office, and when I asked His Excellency the Chancellor only with his gaze, he said "stay put" with his lips alone.

Is there something outside, or is my father here?

The rabbit also goes on as the horn says.

"Convenient......?

"Mm-hmm. I contacted Lord Saint-Just. Kikunai submits that the measures against the monster outbreak from the dungeon were taken in detail in the first place before Sir Saint-Just took office"

"Sure, before he took office, there was a slight commitment to beginner adventurers..."

"We also conducted an investigation to corroborate this, but only five times in five years the Counts of Kikunai returned to their territory. And none of them are less than a few weeks' stay. Now you two were ruling the territory, etc., which is very incredible. Even as deputy, Sir Saint-Just's predecessor is in prison for embezzlement. So who was making that fine effort..."

……

Well, I didn't hide it, and Louis told me that I was doing something to find out all the civilian people who could do Kikunai.

But it wasn't just me, because there was the help of the teachers and the Adventurer Guild Master Laurent.

When I felt differently told and told that it was the result of something I had done alone, and I shut up, I pretended and His Excellency the Chancellor laughed with his voice alone.

"It's useless if you're worried about being slandered for transcendence for taking measures on behalf of your parents. Lords are allowed autonomy to some extent, and if they pay taxes without delay to the Empire, they can't talk unless they commit a special sin. It's hard for a wise lord to want to talk to his parents."

"Thank you for looking into it...... should I thank you?

"Well. May I say that it was worthwhile introducing Sir Saint-Justo in the face of hard work?"

"Ugh... thank you so much for that verse. Half of what I wanted to do in terms of territorial security was achieved thanks to a competent deputy."

"About half, huh?

"Yes, we still haven't had enough money or time to reach out to the residents' safety side, such as evacuation and rescue training"

"I see..."

This is true.

And then there's the health insurance system and the compulsory education system, but I'm not comfortable with the financial base that supports them.

In order to raise tax revenues, we need to make sure that more money comes around to the residents.

You really don't have time for the troubles of Lord's throne.

I almost sigh inadvertently and swallow it.

Then His Excellency the Chancellor said, "That's it," pointing at me with his jaw.

"What in front of Sir, it is difficult to say that the parents of the current Sir contribute against the Empire. But Sir is not. Properly implement dungeon measures, work to bring people together, and actively work to moisturize the territory. If the territory is moistened, there will be more taxes paid by Sir to the Empire, so that's enough to make a contribution."

"I'll be awed."

"In other words, it would be more convenient for Sir to take his place and contribute to the Empire than to leave the danger to any savory territory."

Ooh, I'm too busy with the adult situation, and so am I. But someone outside the door tells me the atmosphere is donning too.

That seemed to have been passed on to His Excellency the Chancellor, and when he grinned at Niyali and me, he coughed up one.

"Well, if you were listening, come in. Kikunai...... No Sir Bernstein"

A man with a face appeared out of a door that made a painful noise and opened, looking nothing like his younger brother, whom he sees for the first time in a year and a half.
