Episode 178: Unqualified
March 19, 7450.
"Guine, will you ask me?
I said as Ralpha popped out and looked at the open door.
"Huh?"
Cunningham raises a voice that looks unexpected.
"Al. Al should go after him himself at times like this"
Claw also followed with a regular face.
But Guine is up and running while I call or not.
That's right, you know.
"Why would Al go? Al is the one who shouldn't go after him."
Marie was also floating her hips, but said as she lowered her back when she saw that Guine had gone after her.
"Why not!? Because Lar..."
Claw says that far ahead.
You must have said it all in front of Cunningham and wondered if it was a good one.
"What does Al say to Lar? What am I supposed to say?
Marie tells Claw in a sigh.
You're right.
"What..."
Claw has a mouthful of rice balls.
"True, that's why you're still here. I've never spoken to a woman properly, so shut up."
Marie tells her to throw up as she looks at her husband with contempt.
If I did only ever dictate a woman in [seduction]...... Huh?
K, Claw, are you...?
Because I rounded my eyes and saw Claw and Marie, Marie looked just a little embarrassed.
"Mmm... don't get me wrong. The proposal came from a proper claw."
Oh, yeah.
Oddly enough, I was relieved from the heart.
"But even if we talk about that now, that's it, right?
Marie broke it off.
Sure, I'm not interested, but it's not like I'm listening or talking right now.
"Mr. Cunningham, you've shown me the inconsistency..."
Yeah, Cunningham was there, too.
"Cunningham, all of a sudden you surprised me. Sorry."
I also apologized to Cunningham as I scratched my cheek in the blindfold.
No, not anymore, I'm really sorry.
I would have honestly bowed my head too if I hadn't been in the troublesome position of a senior aristocrat or something.
"Huh? Um... but okay?
Cunningham, who knows nothing about the situation, says as he lets his gaze swim between me and the door.
"It's not good. But you better know when this happens. I'll talk to you, okay?
Marie says you don't look at me like you need my permission.
"Hey Marie......!
What do you think about people's feelings, especially when they say things like secret thoughts?
Look, Claw snorted at my words too yeah... no. Something is depressing.
"So we'll talk from you?
Marie says with her eyes like she shoots out.
Gu......
Sure, I'm one of the parties.
But you can also say from me... um, I can.
Seeing me stuck in words, Marie gave me a slightly sweet look.
Okay, I'll take care of it.
"I don't know everything about it either, but simply put, Lar liked Al. Nobody seems to have told anyone, so nobody's ever talked about it before, but I think everyone figured it out when they saw it by their side. Somehow, we've been spotted by shallow people."
Mm, well... right.
"Even Al noticed how she felt, didn't he?
Mm, well... right.
You noticed.
"But Al's feelings were toward another person, and Al married that person"
I can only do the facade...
……
Cunningham is listening in silence.
Claw is still depressed and up to tears.
This guy, you really like Marie.
"Well, this is a common story in the Kingdom of Romberto and in 'Japan', and there's nothing wrong with my feelings because they're important. Besides, it's not like Al hates Lar, is it?
All I can do is snort.
Naturally, I never thought I was a bad guy about Ralpha... quite a while ago.
But I've never hated and neglected it from the bottom of my heart.
"If you look at that too, you'll see"
Marie nodded and hammered me.
"So if you asked me if I felt like getting married, it wasn't that far, was it? You don't have to look like that. Because I know. Lar didn't even tell you how he felt in the first place, did he? Then you're not bad at all, and you don't even have to be sorry."
Yeah.
That's right. I know.
Not by comparison, but I thought Mizuchi should answer me as honestly as possible for communicating her feelings from the front, and I finally wanted to fulfill her wish that she could complain about her own feelings with a desperate look on her face.
It would be the biggest difference between Mizuchi and Ralpha.
And I'm just saying I preferred Mizuchi's temperament.
What's more, he was not aware of Ralpha as a paedophile at all.
"It's certainly not a bad idea for Al to get a second daughter-in-law because bigamy is also allowed in this country. I guess that's why Al wanted to have a political marriage."
Is Marie explaining to Cunningham that she's comforting me?
"Both Al and Mizuchi... Oh, Mizuchi is Al's wife, but only the reincarnated are not completely escaped from common sense and good and evil when they lived in 'Japan'. That's me and Claw, too. Even you, Mr. Cunningham, aren't you?
Cunningham nodded at Marie's words.
"But there's still a lot of common sense in the way before, and the thought of getting a second wife, whether it's Al or Mizuchi. I heard that. Even me, huh? As much as I thought."
Well, that's a little bit.
"Claw, because he has feelings.“ What about Mr. Mizuchi? "
Claw nodded as well.
I think I've already drawn tears to the boulder.
"I haven't been able to talk to Mizuchi yet because it was decided this time with the person to marry, but I've been talking about getting married for political purposes for quite some time, and I'm convinced of it."
I don't want Mizuchi to be misunderstood as having decided to marry me without telling me anything, so I said the words of follow-up myself.
"Right. That's what you are..."
Marie says as she throws her soft gaze at me.
And he said, "Around the front door or the stables anyway. Otherwise, Guinness will catch you in the corner of the squad. You'll be here in a while," he said, drinking tea.
"Excuse me. I'll just take it off. I'll be right back..."
I feel like I can't wait to get out of my room.
I just wanted to be a little alone in the captain's office.
Because if I stayed in my room like that, I wasn't going to get my mind sorted out about what to look like for Ralpha back there.
"Mr. Cunningham, I'm sorry I suddenly flustered you"
"No, no..."
Marie lowered her head again, and Ethel can't hide her confusion.
"I hope you don't get me wrong, Al... he's going to be the jetty from the kingdom"
Marie starts talking quietly.
"I want you to know that working under Al together is something you need to know more than say... I'm going to tell you... that the founder of the Kingdom of Romberto is, you know, that sutra of origin"
A surprised look appeared on Ethel's face when he heard Marie's words, then frowned as he suspected.
Because of this, Claw looks like a jerk.
"Yeah. I don't know if it's true or a lie. The person may be someone else who just fooled the name of his menstruation. But you want me to hear it because you think it's true here. If you can't believe it, at least assume that person is a reincarnator. 'Cause we can't talk unless we do."
Ethel nodded and admitted.
"It is said that the Kingdom of Romberto was founded more than 500 years ago. I don't know if this is true or a lie either. You don't have a proper record. Because even if we stayed, we couldn't find out more than we could. That's right, when I founded the country, the menstruation was... in Aus (this way) it's named George Lomberto, but let's go over thirty. Well, that's a branch leaf, so it's not very important. The important thing is that he left his descendants saying that he was a reincarnator himself. Especially since this is Al's guess, but judging from all the information I've heard, I support Al's opinion, too."
Cough small, Marie goes on.
"And how, His Majesty the King clapped that Al was a reincarnator. And then to those around him... this is about us under Al, and he thinks there seems to be a reincarnator."
In response to Ethel, who opens his eyes, Marie gently raises her hand and sends a gesture asking questions later.
"Mm-hmm. That sounds a little too hasty. But it's not that long..."
Seeing Marie's face say tea again, Ethel thought, "That's going to be a pretty long story".
Marie begins to talk about the circumstances of her current reborn in the realm of the Earl of the League.
"According to Al, there must have been several reincarnators before we were reborn. But it seems that if a new reincarnator is to be born, after all the previous generations of reincarnates have died. In short, no new reincarnators are born while one of us is alive, and no one is alive in the generation before us. I hear there are exceptions, but I don't know any more about how you know this... I'm sorry, if you're interested, ask Al later."
"Some of them are likely to have been recognized by the state. But most of them either died before they sprouted, or they did all of Tenshou without anyone noticing..."
"So far, His Majesty and those around him seem to see the reincarnated as quite useful people, but they think it's not because of the knowledge that the reincarnated possess or would have possessed, but because they excel exclusively in personal martial arts."
"We think about this because it's unlikely that one generation or at least two generations ago, if we weren't reincarnators, that agriculture would have been revolutionary in military, industrial and commercial terms, and that one or two generations ago, reincarnators wouldn't have had that kind of knowledge, that even if we had been there, birth patterns would have mattered, and above all, we couldn't have grown to the age at which we could have demonstrated our abilities."
"We haven't seen any movement to get the reincarnated, to welcome them in and make them useful. 'Cause if someone has that much amazing knowledge and that knowledge seems right, it's weird that the state doesn't. Either we gave him that status, like Al, and let him guard the border, or we took him up as a knight and let him work as a soldier."
"Hmm, I don't think it's unnatural or anything about this. A generation before us, I think you can imagine about a hundred years ago, when it was about the head of the 1900s." Japan "is the end of" Meiji "or" Daejong ". Whatever your average level of knowledge is, it will be lower than ours. If you were the head of the 1800s before that, it would be the" Edo period, "and you would have even less knowledge. Well, there's no denying that there were developers and blacksmiths like Cannons and Artillery, but I think it's much more likely that they weren't there because they're going to have a low percentage of the population in the first place."
"If some kind of 'traffic' accident, like ours, caused it to reincarnate, 'Dae-jung' would be a 'bus' or a ship. There was a train at the time, but nobody remembered the big train crash, so I thought I could rule out that possibility."
"Hmm? Yeah, there could be a sen called" Transportation "in the military because it was also from" World War I. "But the" truck "was used for the transport of soldiers only after Al entered Showa, and in the case of ships, sinking as a result of the fighting would be the majority rather than an accident... I can't say much about it, but I can't think about all the possibilities, and from the slightly more likely..."
"The 'Edo period' would only have ships. There were hardly any carriages or cow cars in Japan as" transportation ". At the time, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the crossing, the fishing boat and the boat were almost everything, so if there were other than the crossing, there would be only sailors there would be victims, and there would be no such thing as a crossing or a large boat that could boast dozens of people, so passengers would be military or officials of" samurai "or" samurai "or some sort of wealthy peasant of" Ise "once in a lifetime, even if they were there, or pedestrians who could not prepare the boat in front of themselves. It's not the first time for a man of artillery or blacksmith to travel."
"You've noticed a good point. So far, we've been talking about assuming that Aus (this world) and Earth are on the same timeline. Nobody remembered exactly how many years the menstruation died, but it was definitely a little before the Good Kuniku Ukakura Shogun. Then it's strange that he was reincarnated a little over 800 years before us. That's why I didn't know if it was true or a lie that the Kingdom of Romberto was founded 500 years ago. Well, I have a lot of ideas around here... so keep in mind what I just said."
"It's the way things are from here. The kingdom is now in dispute with the Kingdom of Davis to the south, not with the Empire of Granan, the Kingdom of Cambit, or the Kingdom of Lyle, which otherwise borders the border. Especially since they have good relations with the Kingdom of Cambit, and the Kingdom of Lyle is not regarded as a problem because it is seen as too small to have a taste in the territory. But in the last few years, he's been raising his guard against the Empire of Granan, which is supposed to have a non-war agreement. They're trying to turn their power against you."
"Al appeared in such circumstances and caught His Majesty's eye. In short, His Majesty is almost certain that he is a reincarnator about Al, and he thinks he is personally highly combative, just like the reincarnators who have shown the headlines in the past. And so far Al has shown His Majesty a respectful attitude. That's also why we can say Al was given territory close to the Kingdom of Davas. For that matter, you can turn your power against Granan. And I expected that there would be similar reincarnators around Al as well. But I'm not sure yet."
"Because there's still no country contact anywhere else. If you're sure, you're in contact, right? At least you didn't even feel suspicious until Al got the countenance and sealed in the territory. Al used to publicly proclaim that he was reborn from another world."
"Yes. I was saying it myself. To get your attention all together. Personal combat power was also isolated from the others, so you must have been convinced as Your Majesty that there was. Al gave us a strong light, so we couldn't keep our eyes open until then."
"I can easily guess His Majesty's assessment of a reincarnator named Al. First of all, I'm incredibly strong as an individual. Enough to take down the dragon. This time, the defeat of the Blue Dragon that appeared on the Dart Plains would have reinforced it. Until this point, it won't be much different from the previous statue of the reincarnated, which should be in His Majesty. As a reincarnator, apart from being out of standard as a person, it's not out in the sense that an individual is highly combative."
"Besides, I think you've earned a lot of recognition there as a senior nobleman. I haven't caused any major problems with the management of the territory. Well, I guess I predicted that extent in advance. Otherwise you won't suddenly be a senior aristocrat with territory for anything else. Because the Chamber of Commerce that Al runs is doing well, you can guess that he would have quite the ability to use and negotiate with people, and most importantly, because His Majesty has exchanged words directly with Al many times, I think he had a lot of credibility."
"As far as materials go, His Majesty will be quite good at Al, even as a reincarnator, and a talent that he can still use."
"And I think it would be an assessment that those of us who are under Al are certain that it will be less than Al. Anyway, they were all useless when they fought the dragons in the labyrinth, and that would seem to be the case because they are spoiled under Al. It's true. Yeah, I didn't say I was unhappy with my current position."
"It would be more risky to solicit us like that than it would benefit to succeed. First and foremost, you will consider the possibility of buying Al's wrath. Al is not someone who is controlled by emotions and does reckless things, but if someone ripples enough to defeat the dragon and he gets busted in the king's capital, he can't even look at you. If you're so risky as to think about it, you'd much rather have him play with the Kingdom of Davas on the sidelines with Al, wouldn't you?
"And here's what Al said. The King is at a stage where he suspects he is a reincarnator about us. Partly, there is no denying the possibility of being held to certainty, but we will not fully know who and who are the reincarnators, he said. Of course, as kings, reincarnated or not, there was also the hand to show everyone as good a condition as Al to solicit. But the territory and status are limited, and most importantly, there is a small number of people who know about the reincarnated, and if you want to hide them, you have to be careful about soliciting them."
"In the first place, it's hard to justify soliciting all of us, right? Somehow, reincarnated people are thought to be strong enough as individuals, and if they ask you to cost that much for talent, you won't hang it."
"So even if we solicit, we won't get our hands on it until we figure out if our power is comparable to Al's or if it seems to be more useful than Al's. When we get our hands on it, we can easily beat Al, or when we're judged to be more useful than Al."
When Marie is waving her long and wide tongue like this......
"Larru!"
Gradually on the outskirts of the squad field, Guine caught up with Lal.
Even though Lar was snoozing and running, as a slow legged Guiney, you'd better work hard.
"Get off me... leave me alone"
Guine grabbed me by the arm. That's what Lar said and knelt on the ground.
"You can't leave me alone! Run away all of a sudden. Come on!
Guine tries to get him to stand up forcefully with his arm grabbed.
And he brought his own face closer to the lal facing him without force.
"Why are you crying!?"
"Because..."
"You know, it's a good opportunity, so I'll tell you what. You don't deserve to cry about a habit you haven't even confessed to Mr. Al!
"Because..."
"I can't help but cry if you say you've confessed and been shaken. I can go out with you, too. But I feel sorry for Xenom for his habit of not even making a minimum declaration of intent!
"Because... Al has Mizuchi, and I can't tell you"
"Then just give it up! If you want to cry, you can do it yourself, but don't cry alone where no one else is!
"Ugh..."
"This doesn't have to be the first time you see Mr. Ethel!
"Ugh, uhh... Mi, if it's just Mizuchi, I can still stand it... but I can't believe it's Hiu, with Hume... I can't believe it anymore..."
"So the only one who can say that and cry is the one who properly confessed! You didn't do anything!
"But..."
"But you know what, I didn't say guzzle, it's lame!
"... just..."
"Ah?"
"You didn't even confess to Tris!
"What's wrong with that? I gave up right away. I didn't cry and disturb you."
"Liar! You were crying after me!
"Oh, oh, that was a delight to see you!
"Hmm, what do you say? There was a time when Guinness was heating up to Al."
"That's right. But it's only a very short time after I see you, and I'm not crying like you, and that's all you can say?
"Chi, damn it! Idiot, Guine is such an idiot!
"Uh, silly is fine. But it's better than you! You asshole! Look over there!
That's what Guineh pointed inside the squad yard.
There, on duty of care, the mountain people (Dwarves) of the old purgatory flame (Gehenna Flair) with dragonflies gathered to see what had happened.
"Look, they always hold on to you ladies and daughters, so be sure."
"... Did you hear that?
"It's that distance, and you don't sound like a boulder. Look, I'm going back."
"... no"
"Don't ever say something like a child. Stand up, look! I'm gonna go wash my face!
Guine started pulling the guzzling lal hard.
"Hmm..."
I was sighing deeply in front of the captain's office desk.
"Damn, what am I supposed to do... damn"
Stupid as he keeps his weight on the back of his chair.
I like Ralpha, but I fell in love with the swelling. That's not it.
I want someone to find a good guy and have a happy marriage.
He is of the same race, the Pu, and ideally the second son of some senior nobleman or something is the best.
Of course, I don't mind at all that it didn't.
You just have to be the kind of guy who always cares about him and always thinks and cares about him the most.
I was hoping Ralpha would find someone like that.
One of the reasons I joined the Knights also meant so that we could meet at all.
I was even thinking that with more of my territory, that would be all we would meet.
Is it my fault?
Is it my fault that I didn't react aggressively while I realized how he felt?
…………
……
Will Mizuchi make it for dinner tonight?
If not, let's go eat sea urchins.
