Magical Device Craftsman Dahlia Won’t Hang Her Head Down Anymore
253. Adopted Child and Keeper Dog
"Leaving - if you'll let Jonas go, I'll be grateful."
"Sorry, at this busy time"
The Scalfalotto family mansion, in its clerk's office, where Gouid spells his signature on the paperwork.
There are only a few more documents left on the desk. Nevertheless, the blue and white moon was already visible outside the window.
"No, Jonas' brother. I guess you cared. Next time I come to Royal Castle for delivery, I'll tell you. Whatever happens to me, unless Jonas himself quits, he'll serve as the knight of the Scalfalots, if necessary in writing."
"I apologize for the inconvenience. I thought we were going to talk about leaving sooner or later, but I'm not going back to my house because I'm a demon."
"Even Jonas won't be able to see himself. Brother, if you wanted to let go of you, you would have ordered me to leave with one paperwork a long time ago. I won't wait at the stable today."
"My brother said he was expecting me?
Unexpectedly, I asked back in a low voice.
"Oh. He's been waiting at the stable for two hours since Jonas left me at the Royal Castle."
"... is a waste of time"
Jonas turns to sign the documents he is given and weakens the dryer. When I made sure the ink was dry, I transferred it to the leather box on the desk.
Gouid speaks out with his new paperwork in his hand and without raising his gaze.
"As I leave what you think to Jonas, brother, I'm sure you care. Goodwin's" kinship club "has many connections. Someone in the back would like that."
"It's not worth it to me. If you leave, there will be a temporary increase in the number of places you can't escort, so I was wondering if it might be possible for you to aim for Master Gouad."
"I don't know. There are other high-ranking nobles in the field that cannot be escorted in the royal castle. Then you still have a better chance of aiming when you travel or when you head out to another house."
I'm not nervous about Gouid's voice when he says he's the target.
I hate to say I'm used to raiding, but I've been in danger of cooling my gall once or twice a year in the last few years.
I just want you to feel a little more critical.
"So what's the line where you're going to be referring people, opinionated, 'It's odd that a commoner who has left the country is the head of the arms department'?
"The former deputy captain of the Demon Crusade Force takes his name and complains about the head of the weapons department (Osa) that the retired knights push around - I just think he has a desire for ruin"
"Sure, thanks to Master Bernige and Dr. Dalya, I also got a robe for the Baron and Consultant next year..."
"I wonder if Master Berniege wanted to surprise us. Master Grate and Jildo kept the robe to themselves, so it may be an outside guru. You still treat me and Jonas like I'm a kid in a surprise box."
I'm just a little relieved by the frustrating gouad. He didn't really know, either.
"There are three objectives that come to mind in the matter of expulsion. One is a connection to the Scalfalot family. Because it will be intimate with the house where Jonas was adopted. However, since Jonas has a choice of adoptive destinations, it is difficult to do so for this purpose only. If you don't step on it to make sure you can adopt it, it's a bad bet for you."
"I have no such adoptive destination. I haven't even heard from you."
"The second is Lord Rossetti. Instead of having the adoption of Jonas in our company, it is possible that he will wish to connect with the Rossetti Chamber of Commerce. Well, I'll talk to everyone from One Ship then."
Even though he is a nobleman, he would not want to make a bad relationship with each guild for one Dahliya.
If you have to, Grato, the head of the Demon Crusade Squad, and Gildo, the treasurer of the Rossetti Chamber of Commerce, are likely to come out as well.
If you're a nobleman with a lot of information, you can't shut your mouth in the first place.
"Okay, third one, it's Jonas."
"What do you gain from adopting a demon? If you solve the demon, there is no external magic, and the eyes are strong. I thought it would be negative to add the blood of the desert people to the clan."
"We should stop wasting humility. Those who are stronger than you who have earned it can be counted in the royal castle. It looks pretty good. Deals with Ishrana are tightening up, as are more marriages between nobles. And..."
Take your eyes off the paperwork and gouad turns to himself.
Its face, illuminated by a demonic guide lamp, looked badly shaded.
"This is what I would think. If we get Jonas, we'll be able to make a connection with your husband, Mother."
"No way. That one and I have nothing to do with it"
"But if there's anything in Jonas, won't 'he' come out?
"... I won't deny it"
Mother back in the desert country, her present husband. I'm not my own father in the first place.
It's only for my mother that he cares about himself.
"It's time for you to come to the country every two years. Suddenly there must be demons in the streets. Let's turn the mercenary guard around to protect the delivery from the merchants."
"I'm sorry"
When he comes to the kingdom of Ordine, he asks to see Gouid every time.
A rare piece of desert as a gift, "Best Regards, Jonas" is a classic.
Most importantly, we have a business deal with the Scalfalots, so it won't be negative for him either.
"It's not for Jonas. A King Snake (Kingsnake) loose shell would be indispensable for slimming, wouldn't it? We will need a large number of them in the future, so we need to re-sign the purchase agreement. Oh, keep an eye out for the distilled liquor of return."
"Thank you"
One year last year, I did hit my tongue drum on the distilled liquor that I put to sleep for a long time and bought the same on my return home.
Maybe this year we can mix the same liquor with something darker with amber.
"By the way, does Jonas tell his episcopal female partner if he has any athe?
"I will give priority to Master Gouid's escort after the medal. Because the medal is the same day."
"Jonas is also on the clear stage. Join us as barons, not as escorts. I am with my father because I am also a substitute greeter. Ask your father to escort you."
"I don't know about that..."
The former Count, his own father, is not something you can call an escort either way.
Though it is true that their safety will be perfect.
"My father and I can talk about ice pickling every room, even if it raids us. I'm not gonna let one of you get away with this."
"I was wondering if you both had a problem adding or subtracting. Do you have any fear of involving those around you when you are aggressive?
"... hopefully nothing"
Soon he turns back to the paperwork and answers with a firm face.
Similar to his father, Count Scalfalot, Gouid is a poor handler of ice magic.
We've both frozen them up to the escort more than once with the raiders, so the escort became common to carry the Demon Stone of Fire.
"Let's turn to the Augusto family for the adoption of Jonas."
"That won't happen, Master Gouid. Master Scarlatti is deputy guild leader of the Adventurer Guild. It's annoying to adopt a demon."
"That's a lot of exorcisms for adventurers. And I don't think Augusto cares about Jonas."
"Since the death of the demonic adventurer a few years ago, it is recommended, in principle, that it be lifted. It is left to the discretion of the individual, but I wonder if it might not be in a form that Augusto, the deputy guild leader, acknowledges. I can't show the adventurer."
"Right. Anything else... even close to our faction, you can't ask Viscount Goodwin, whose name is exactly the same. And then there's Viscount Zione, Viscount Tarini...... let's not. If you're a baron, there are many candidates, but do you have any hope of being adopted?
"No. If you can serve as well as you do now, anywhere"
When I answered that, Gouad's eyes caught a terribly pranky light.
"Jonas, will you be my child?
"Give me a break."
The salutation disappeared.
Damn, what will the man who will soon be Marquis say?
"I feel chilly just thinking about it, like calling you my brother"
"Sure, whether Jonas calls me 'brother' or 'father', don't make me laugh"
"I'm absolutely sorry!
When I resolutely say it back, my friend laughs at the pieces.
That voice, not being aristocratic, seemed to be back in its student years, and it sounded mild for a long time.
"Well, this is as a joke. How about a son-in-law?
"It's a hassle. No one wants to have a urchin for their partner in the first place. Scared or disgusted - I'm sorry I ever got away with it again."
After the true meaning of the vomit, what returns to my ear is a scream for my demonized self.
Then the woman who told herself that she was' staying demonic ', backwards, said goodbye.
Interpretation, fiancée candidates appreciated in relation to each other in the house. It just broke before I knew it.
I only think so, but Gouid had a worse hurtful look (Kao) and looked at himself.
"... oh, not all those women. Now, the women you worked with the other day, they didn't take any chances against Jonas."
"Those people... are exceptions to the rule."
Idea Arena in Lucia for Dahlia.
None of the three of them are in sight about Jonas or anything. All I have in my eyes is my job.
In that respect, I can't say the same as myself.
Gouid puts his finger on his jaw and is beginning to think about something.
I cut out about his cute little brother because he's going to talk more about matchmaking if he stays like this.
"Looks like Master Wolfe told Dr. Dalya about his adopted son to the Scalfalot family."
"Adoption? Isn't it marriage?
"I hinted at the language of marriage, but Dr. Dalya didn't move. Probably not listening."
Stop the pen you were signing and your friend looks terribly sinister.
"At this time, shall we make Lord Rossetti's episcopal partner a wolf and wear clothes in each other's colors? Those two would be right if we told them we were going to get ready. And then there's flow and momentum."
"Don't waste your expectations. Besides, the dress is already made by Lord Lucia. And then Dr. Dahlia told me," Don't worry, I'm with you. "
"... Jonas, I want to ask you something serious"
"Don't make me say it again and again, it's out of range"
Answer in the middle of the word.
I wanted to tell you to make a troubled face and stop teasing me, but now I have more to say than that.
"Care more about Dr. Dalya than I do. That one is dangerous with vegetables. On the day the noblemen call me for their magic equipment, I will not be made a pageant."
To put it all out, the friend in front of me spilled a deep and long sigh.
"Ha... I'm glad I made it with Lord Rossetti's noble guardian. I'll tell Ivano to talk to him if he asks. He'll be loaded to deal with more than the Marquis."
"Really? I feel like I'm going to do it with a cheerful face. I'm terrified that that man is crossing this far while he's a common man."
"Will Jonas scare you? That's as much praise as I'd like to give him."
Jonas frowns at Gouad, who laughed with pleasure.
"I'm not kidding. The man is intimate with each guild leader and is also close to Lady Grate and Lady Zildo. Recently, we have passed the" Prosthetic Feet Care Set "to the destinations of prosthetic feet made by Bernige."
The contents of the "Prosthetic Feet Care Set" are a set of gloss, wipe cloth, polish cloth and small hairdryer on the cleaning agent.
I can have my phone. Besides, there's no name for the sender, the Rossetti Chamber of Commerce.
"Please let me know because it's convenient." Bernige, who gave it to Ivano, just handed it out free of charge.
"I'm impressed with that one. There was a" Chamber of Commerce crest "on the small dryer and polished cloth. If you look at that one, you'll come and get the connection from the other side. Wouldn't it be a good way to invite you to your hand without ever being grateful to anyone? Besides, the other day you gave me some stomach pills, both for Grate and me. I've never known a bear to work better than a cow. That stomach medicine looks like an adventurer's guild to me, but I wonder who told me?
Someone who can't follow me anymore...
So much so that Ivano's hands are getting longer.
I have a bright smile for sales and I don't even give in to the shaking of Gouid.
Jonas is so alert that he remembers the unseen blue eyes on the bottom.
"Really, I don't know how far you're going to stretch your arms. Mostly, you're afraid of that guy, so you're teaching him to go up and down every now and then."
"Because I'm a coward. I'll feed you and chain you up before your dog bites you."
"... that's a compliment I don't want to teach myself"
"You're not even gonna tell me, are you? I'm not stopping you. Ivano, just keep going."
Lifting his mouth loosely, Gouid finished signing the last paperwork today.
"If you don't get scared enough, you can't have two watchdogs."
