It was after the meeting was successfully completed and the meeting was dissolved.

Elgnard soothes his hard expression and invites me for a moment. Hmm? And as I leaned my neck over, he bent his hips deeper and gazed at me.

"... it's been three years, but you've grown up, Viscount Cardia. Previously, I couldn't fit the height of my gaze without fully kneeling."

"Was I? You haven't changed much."

"I'm already at the end of my growth period. After that, it won't change that much until old age arrives."

Including tea glare, Elgnard carves wrinkles in his eyeballs. Very similar to Uncle Einschvark. I felt that way more than three years ago.

"How's Oscar? I heard he became your knight."

"Do you know him? I don't think he was a direct subordinate."

"He is the man who draws the blood of that Teresian main house. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know."

... That's well, maybe it does.

Oscar's grandmother is Marquis Riedelgau's sister, albeit with a stomachache. How can a Teresian family that builds a great power as a powerful aristocrat care less about its existence with blood muscles close to the center?

"I'm a competent person. Similar to Count Teresia, the work is very efficient and"

"I'm a little overzealous, though. You'd better have one of those guys because you have too much work to do."

"Yeah, yes, well"

When Elgnard lowers his back on the couch, he shows me the couch across the street too. Is there something like sitting back and talking? I obeyed his instructions and obeyed him.

"Let's get straight to it. The Earl of Teresia asked me to do one thing."

"... something to do with me?

Count Teresia asked Elgnard. Stuck in words for a moment in its oddity.

I didn't think the Einschvark and Teresian families had that deep a relationship, but it's not surprising that only the Count has a personal connection. But when it comes to what he might ask of Elgnard personally, all I can think of is something about me.

The fact that the Count, who seems ill all these years, will be ready to pull his hand from the Cardiac realm is not something that he would diligently have guessed at the time he came to me with Oscar, a blood relative.

I don't care what you think if you let me work like that, I'm going to die without another year, so I would like you to pull in early and cure me if you can even prepare a successor.... Unlike before, at some point it seems that way without any screaming.

"You are the party. Let me skip what you asked me to do. The question is, are you willing to be my daughter?"

.................. what?

I looked seriously at Elgnard in the face of the unexpected appearance of wrinkles between my eyebrows.

Wouldn't you like to be my daughter, because? I'm his?

"... thinking about adoption?

"No. I'm sorry, but it's not adoption, it's Judaism. You don't seem to know how Yuko is."

According to Elgnard's brief, Yuko and I have no legal rights, let's just say.

Don't think so hard, Elgnard tells me very naturally. It's like borrowing a name.

─ ─ I can't solve it. What's in it for him?

I mean, should we do his suggestion behind the scenes?

But two generations later, the great nobleman of Takemen, who obtained the status of Uncle Wang, turned to the backup of the little girl of the infamous little territory, and there should be nothing else to gain but unnecessary hardship.

"Don't think hard, though. Judaism is not what I intend to tie together. In ancient times, it's a rare relationship between caring about someone you like like like like like like a real child or a real parent. If you don't like me, you can talk to me, or else you can snort."

"Ha..."

"Well, don't worry. I have an advantage. I can't help but worry about the blood clans setting up kids here. Because my daughter-in-law doesn't get pregnant, I can't help it, but then I get separated from my daughter-in-law and I end up with people who call me a new woman, etc."

That's a good story, and I hammered. Elgnard is already half past twenty years old. Now that you have become the Knights Commander of the Border Castle Fort, it is only natural that you should leave your child behind.

"I don't think my voice will disappear when I welcome Yoko..."

"What, there is a way to do it. Then I'll say," Shall I adopt you instead of Judaism? "Most of them will shut up when your name comes up. [M] As it is Takemen for once, your name is quite well known. There 'll be more applause for this one."

Elgnard appended vague words to me when I leaned my neck, because you were not just a child.

Because my father told me about Judaism.

"Uh, no, that's a little. Are you kidding me?

I don't know, Niyanya laughs, and Elgnard probably jokes.

So, the force that was unknowingly in my shoulder fell out of ston. They make no difference to the unique, heartwarming care they try to relieve their tension.

"... if Count Theresia asked for it, I have no intention"

"Right. Then you will be my daughter now."

"Right. Thank you for your continued support."

"There's nothing more emotional than I thought."

Well, nothing's changed.

After a terribly pale exchange, on this day I had a Yu Father. Father, when I called him, he looked terribly odd, so when I called him Elgnard, he apparently came closer to you.
