“Why do you live? ”
“It's my policy to do something meaningful in my life. ”
“Yes. Okay, I'll look at it later. ”
“Take a look now. ”
“Why are you looking at this when it's not even business hours? You look like you're in trouble just looking at the title. I'll check in with you tomorrow at work. ”
“You have to work during business hours. ”
“Save me. I just woke up from a hangover. ”
“There's never been a human that hasn't seen the effects of healing potions. ”
“Anyway, let's talk tomorrow. I'm not in the mood today. ”
“I can't do that. ”
Louie pulls out a piece of paper and a pen on the table and writes something. Then he summoned the young servant and instructed him.
“Deliver this letter to His Excellency. He'll be at your house by now. ”
“Yes.”
Jeron looks at the young servant with a curious look as he rushes out with a hastily written letter.
“What kind of letter are you writing? ”
“This letter is asking you to take care of a special unpaid vacation for Mr. Deckard. ”
“Oh, vacation? That's good.... Huh? Did you just say" unpaid "? ”
“Yes, at this point, that's all the vacation Mr. Deckard is legally entitled to. ”
“Not unpaid! You're cutting my salary. It's too close to pay for your trauma in a bar! ”
“You might want to cut down on the booze. And don't worry about your living expenses, I'll take care of you during your vacation. ”
“Are you going to lock me up in this shabby house? I'm a higher rank. You can't treat me like this! Where are my guards? ”
“Everyone's on vacation. ”
“…… You took a vacation from my bodyguards? ”
“Yes, he listened. So let's get started. Please review the draft manuscript first. ”
“Hey, hey! ”
Louie drags Jeron to the library.
Jeron cried as he watched the breathtaking landscape of the library covered in all kinds of data.
“Why this guy? That guy? He likes to keep me locked up! ”
Jeron Deckard has done the same thing in the past.
I didn't think it was because of my bad working attitude.
Jeron ended up in Louie's house, collaborating.
Once the draft manuscript ‘Establishing a Temporary Administration System and Minimizing Civil Damage’ appeared, Jeron immediately took his attitude seriously. It was because it felt like Louis was a masterpiece of his spirit and might be left in history.
Without a moment's rest, Jeron dismissed the manuscript.
“What do you think?”
Louis, who brought me coffee, asked.
Jeron sticks out his tongue.
“What the hell do you want me to do? Looks perfect to me. ”
“A compliment.”
“Really, I want to show this to the Chancellor. Watch and learn. But is there anything I can do with this manuscript? ”
“I would like to fully consider the variables based on strategic movements of my allies and enemies in the exhibition. ”
“You look like you've done enough. ”
“Not that I'm not confident, but I can be more perfect with the help of Zachary Deckard, and there's no reason to insist on going it alone. ”
“It was a creepy and thorough plan, even though I took a look. You sublimated the system to strategic level. If you put it up now, you'll get adopted. And your public record. You're gonna share that with me? ”
“Yes.”
Jeron tilts his head.
“What's wrong with you? You weren't always like this, were you? Isn't it a shame you want to share this incredible idea with me that will last a lifetime? ”
“That's a shame. I just want to do more than I can. ”
“…… there was a human here who was touched by his speech. ”
“My heart rang out. ”
Jeron smiles in relief.
“He's good at what he says. I've been through a lot with that horseshoe. ”
Louis laughed as well.
“But you have to learn that, too. Learn some tricks to attract their interest. What's" Building a Temporary Enforcement System and Minimizing Civil Damage "? It's boring and blurry. Let's change it to a more eye-catching, simple title. ”
“How? ”
“I'll show you.”
Jeron slashed the line on the first page of the plaintiff "Building a temporary system of exhibition and minimizing civil damages." And I wrote a new title under it.
The title was:
[Maneuvering]
Louie's eyes widen.
“Indeed.”
“Much better, right? The simpler the title, the easier it is for future generations to remember. ”
“I'm not interested in the reputation of the next generation, but I agree with the title. But before that, before the coffee gets cold. ”
Jeron took the cup of coffee to his mouth.
“Oh, that's good. ”
“Thank you."
“Why are you thankful? ”
“Because I made it. ”
“ ……?! ”
“Do I look like a shrewd person who has no hobbies other than work? ”
Later, two geniuses began to immerse themselves in the legendary roster.

After a successful briefing, I took a three-day vacation from King Eric. I was interested in getting some rest and getting back to work.
However, I could not play at home and play with Jis at home during the holidays. I had to go to a party with Julia.
There was no way Julia, the party fanatic, could have missed the grand party that the nobles had gathered at the banquet. Moreover, you can get a lot of attention if you take me to the discussion circuit.
Eventually, I hung out with Julia.
I got along with people while I was at this party. I wished that this kindness would help me gather the nobles in the exhibition.
Julia enjoyed the party very much.
“I knew Wool's husband was the best! ”
“Now I realize the greatness of this husband. ”
“I'm not the only one who's impressed by her famous speech. I thought you had a lot of money, but you're a good talker. ”
“Hey, do you want to get mad at your husband? ”
“Heeheehee.”
“How did women react, by the way? ”
“I was more cautious than men. I guess it makes you reluctant to leave your child's arms and go to royal school. ”
“Women tend to protect their children more than men. You said your father represents society, and your mother represents your family. ”
This is why it is difficult to adapt to the social life of those who were overcompensated by Mother as a child.
“My family is the opposite. I like to go to meetings and make connections, and she wants to hang out at home. ”
“Isn't that the restoration that implies the future of our ligand family? I retire early, play at home, you do business outside. ”
“Who cares! You're going to let me work outside and play alone with cis, right? ”
“You're jealous again. This cute thing. ”
I stroked Julia's head.
“Well, what is it? You think I'm Ann? ”
Julia rubs her face red with my hands, but now she's calmed down with a steady stroke. My sweet wife.
We flew in the sky holding hands on Earth's hand. The bright moonlight and starlight were creating a romantic scent.
After being intoxicated by the atmosphere of the night sky, Julia leaned her head against my shoulder. I hugged her like that towards me.
Oh, I'm happy.
I hope this day will go on forever. A peaceful life without war.
