Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

"Uh ..."

Earl Bozes, who was staying at the Royal Mansion during the social season, stopped his paperwork and was struck by a letter.

"Th-This is……"

Yes, it was a party invitation from Marquis Tinoberg.

A party invitation to the Bozes couple. That's good. It is common.

... The problem was that Marquis Tinoberg and Iris, Countess Bozes, were on a dog-monkey relationship.

The Countess of Bozes and Marquis Tinoberg, and the Marquis Tinoberg and Countess of Bozes, are not incompatible. On the contrary, they are quite close, especially the Earl and the Marquis, who are fairly friendly as lords of their respective territories, and nobles of the same faction.

But Marquis Tinoberg and Countess Bozes. This was useless. It was useless, lethal.

Is it bad that you were in the same grade at the aristocratic girls' school in the royal capital? Or was it bad that Earl Bozes made a marriage proposal to his wife, just before the Marquis of Tinoberg, before she met Marquis ...

The marriage of a nobleman can be decided between houses irrespective of their own will. It is not a rare thing, such as a direct courtship from the person himself. Moreover, if it is the youngest of the lower aristocrats, it is still from the trace of the Earl family.

Naturally, the turmoil caused Iris to be seen by many noble girls with envy.

Iris attended a junior high school, but for a short period of time to allow the aristocratic daughter to experience a minimum of "interaction with other people besides family and servants". It's just a mana. The study and background education as aristocrats are performed by vassals, servants, and tutors in each house, so it is really a place of play.

…… However, it seems to be a terrible place to learn factions and power relations. And women who have attended Jogakuin never talked to men about Jogakuin.

He ran around with his friends with sword training and ridiculous play and got a lifetime friend, many acquaintances, and connections. , But after all, he was unable to tell me anything.

Anyway, the marriage of Marquis Tinoberg and Countess Bozes was the worst.

Indeed, if a party is a child's debutant ball, a birthday, or an important anniversary of the host family, then they just ignore each other and do nothing. For a time, it seems that they have a common sense.

However, meeting people at parties that don't need to take care of others and children is always terrible. And this time, the host is the Marquis Tinoberg, and the party's name is the Marquis's birthday party.

You don't have to worry about other homes, you don't have to care for your children, and your home ground.

The Marquis couldn't help. And of course Iris ...

Dragon and Manticore were fighting against the backdrop of flames, and he was Earl Bozes holding his head.

"I'll go, of course."

"e……"

Maybe you refuse to attend? No, I wonder. I hope you refuse ...

The Earl who thought so was disappointed.

"I can't seem to have escaped fighting in a disadvantaged place."

"It's a fight ..."

Earl Bozes is giving up everything.

Iris was like Iris.

"If the battlefield is at a disadvantage, all you need to do is get enough weapons to overturn that disadvantage."

"e?"

Count Bozes didn't understand what his wife was saying.

However, when I saw my wife's grinning face, I knew well that it would not be a good thing.

Aristocratic parties do not have greetings at the beginning like Japanese common party. The number of people gradually increased, the conversation progressed in each group, and after a certain period of time, there was a greeting from the organizer. It was a natural system because it was difficult to get together exactly on time.

And arriving on time was rude and it was natural that it was a little late on purpose, but it was almost time for all the invited guests to gather.

"Hello everyone, welcome to my birthday party today."

The Marquis, who was escorted by Marquis Tinoberg and climbed up on the stage, began to greet him, and his wife, who would normally see it bitterly, seemed extraordinarily affordable.

The wife's figure with a simple design with a wide open chest and a light shawl is beautiful. The Marquis's greeting was over while the Earl was gazing at the same appearance as when he first met. Then, the Marquis descends from the stage and walks straight to this place.

(Oh ah ...)

I can't help myself.

I thought so, it was Count Bozes who gave up everything.

Behind the marquis who was walking, was Marquis Tinoberg, who had the same look as Earl Bozes.

"Oh, Countess Bozes, have you come to celebrate my birthday?"

Although they are former classmates, they never talked to each other's first name.

"Yes, I heard that the Marquis is going to get another year, so I'm hoping to see that moment, ho-ho-ho!"

!

A blue line appeared near the Marquis of the Marquis.

"Oh oh, hohoho!"

"" Hohohohohohohohoho! "

The surroundings were wrapped in silence, and the visitors' faces were cramped.

And Count Bozes, looking at it with a hollow face, thought from the bottom of his heart.

(I want to go home……)

"Yes, my husband gave me this as a birthday celebration ..."

Speaking of that, the Marquis, wearing a shawl like Iris, took the shawl. And what appeared from below ...

"" "" "Ooooooo!" "" "

A roaring gushes out of the visitors.

 It was a brilliant red ruby pendant, a brilliant color, size, and a glow without impurities.

The Marquis held the pendant top in hand so that everyone could see it better, and presented it in front of Iris, without any intentional shuffling. And a smile on his face, as if he was proud.

The Marquis never spoke of the "difference between marquis and earl" in the fight against Iris. It depends on the status of the husband and has nothing to do with their difference.

But this is different. This jewel is your possession and your own decoration. And a proof that I have the attraction that I can contribute to my husband. In other words, this is "proof of your ability".

And the Marquis, who wanted to enjoy the regretful Iris' face, looked suspicious. ...... Iris has no regrettable face. On the contrary, she smiles slightly.

(……e?)

Yes, Iris was expecting this.

Give Date to the maid girls and give pocket money to "Made friends with the maid of the Marquis of Tinoberg. I'll give you all the money you spend for that, apart from your pocket money. '

The maids jumped at the chance of paying at the sweets and haberdashery for free. I also took a vacation with the marquis' servant's vacation and made contact with it. With the payment of a sweet shop, he quickly became friends. Yes, it's fun to tell you that your employer's wife is buying a great gem, and that it seems like a considerable expense, and that your employer has a head.

And Iris went back.

"Oh, I also got a gift from my husband. It was nothing but a birthday ..."

Iris took the shawl.

And what appeared from below?

"" "" "" …………… ”" "" "" "

No words. Silence until horrible.

Yes, it was that.

Things that should not be in this world.

Besides the queen, it is not strange that the goddess wears it.

No, no. "It would be strange if someone other than the goddess wore it."

A miraculous pearl necklace with a shape close to a sphere, large, thick, uniform in color and grain size.

(……won!)

Seeing the Marquis solidified with an appalling face, Iris warped her mouth slightly.
