Put out a few uses for people and change their plans significantly from tomorrow.

When I talk to Corneille, there are a lot of circumstances that I can't explain to him in detail, and I put it that way, but it's convenient for me to back up his proposal.

It's my intention to keep Daphelias' information secret if there's anything that can make me break my engagement.

In the first place, it is strange because Viscount Augrain summoned Fayria, who cannot and is not willing to dissolve the engagement.

According to Corneille's story, Yesta Augrain's intended opponent is the Viscount of the West, whose main revenue for the territory is from agriculture. Oscar collected some simple materials for me, but it doesn't look like the other house owns the assets that would allow me to manage Viscount O'Grain's debt.

I mean, Viscount O'Grain's call for Fayria was definitely not a discussion to break the engagement.

Then what the hell is the Viscount thinking?

... If there's anything in Fayria's engagement at this time, it would be me and the Rogue Shea family who will be harmed.

The Augrains have a powerful backup called Nordstelm. If something happens to Fayria and she loses her engagement to the Rogue Shea family, there is no risk of collapse if her financial resources give her money.

You just told me that the most devastating damage to the Rogue Shea family, which actually falls, would come to me when I couldn't avoid the Rogue Shea family falling.

Arxian aristocracy tends to hate the fall of the lord aristocracy.

It's stable, but the law makes me geese, and it's not that much fruit, because of all the heavy responsibilities.

Once Rogue Shea has fallen, it is inevitable that she will surely be held accountable until the noblemen of the cauldron are determined afterwards. It would also go around with bad reviews......

And is this Fayria call one of the instructions of the Marquis of Nordstelm?

Perhaps he would have liked the expulsion of me and Count Theresia from the aristocratic community, which was a great possibility that he moved as a measure.

... did the Marquis have her summoned in anticipation of Faelia coming out of the Academy without permission?

The inside of the Academy is isolated from the outside of the hospital. Basically, students don't get outside information, and if there's nothing between nobles to be told by their parents, they just have to hear rumors.

Conversely, it's easy to get inside the Academy from the outside.

Numerous people work as servants in the Academy. You can use that as a source.

I also put about two aristocrat-born women of civilian status in the position of preparing the lecture room of the Academy for personal expenses, and the Earl of Teresia has such handouts on a dozen units.

The Academy is not directly related to politics, but it makes a lot of sense for the nobles who try to manipulate the power of the Wang Capital to grasp the information inside.

In my case, where self-rule is the main rule, well, I'll be enrolled in a few more years, so I'm just hiring people for a reason like that.

... That's way off the record.

This means that it is not impossible to predict how Fayria's engagement is known within the Academy or what action Fayria, called in the name of a discussion to break the engagement, will take.

Especially if Augrain's hand is around Fayria, it will be easier. It's between engaged houses, so you won't be so suspicious.

I don't know what you were going to do with the call. But it seems certain that the Augrains are moving in the direction of breaking up their engagement to Fayria.

─ ─ I was just lucky to be caught before Felia and Corneille went to the Augrain family.

But I couldn't miss this opportunity because I didn't have to go around behind my back.

Three days later, I served yesterday and the delivery of attendance to the House of Lords, which was absent due to ill-health.

At the same time, the prepared one reaches the mansion successively, and the sweet aroma of one of the loads, the bright fruit, spreads throughout the mansion.

... I hope this keeps you in a good mood. Whether he moves properly or not, the upside of things seems very different.

"Um..."

Faelia sitting on the bedside of the room looks up at me with a very unexpected look.

I unload a cup of tea from my mouth, anything? and turned his gaze to her.

"It's about your father's business..."

"Oh. Did you even think of that?

"... Yes. Probably making beeswax."

... beeswax.

"The Grunfeld region did have a lot of beekeeping going on."

"Yes. Perhaps my father also provides beekeeping. But I was wondering if my father was beekeeping for beeswax, not honey."

"Why?

When asked why she thought so, Faelia thought only a little and then began to line up the reasons she hesitated to come up with.

"There are candles lit at home… a little extravagant. Then, for the past five years or so, your father has often given you cream to take care of your skin..."

"I see."

You make beeswax... But that leaves a question. Candles are in quite high demand. Yet Count Rogue Shea's business failed once. I've never even heard of Rogue Shea territory making beeswax a specialty before.

... somehow I feel hooked. I'm curious, but you don't have the means to find out...

Besides, now I have to concentrate on playing Augrain's opponent.

I drove that slight suspicion into the corner of my head.
