"Hey, Al. Why is everyone wearing such worn out clothes?

"Huh? Are those the clothes of the people you tried at the funeral today, Master Garrod? Those were good clothes for the villagers for the funeral."

"Really? Nobody wears those in the castle, do they? Aren't you cold?

"That must be cold. Some villagers may die in the cold of winter."

"Al, really?

"Yeah, sure.... Have you noticed anything else, Master Garrod?

"Erm.... yes, the house was worn out too!

"I see. It's a good focus. The building where the funeral was held was indeed old. Can Master Garrod stay in that building?

"Uh, no. My butt hurt because it was tiny and my chair wasn't fluffy."

"Really? But that building was better than the house I was born and raised in. We were poor farmers."

"Where Al was born? Was it smaller than that? That's a lie."

"It's true. Because you didn't have anything to eat at all. You served a little food at that village funeral, was it delicious?

"Yeah. It wasn't delicious at all"

"That's a treat the villagers prepared for the funeral. I guess we don't usually even prepare that many meals. Maybe you usually just eat something a little less flavorful"

"That makes you hungry, doesn't it?

"Of course it is. I can't believe I'm hungry."

"... why doesn't everyone have a better life? It's completely different from the life of a castle, so I was surprised."

"I guess that's what we all think. He wants a good life. But I can't because I'm still poor."

"Oh well. Poor is bad."

"That's right. And it will be difficult if the country is not stable for everyone to cease to be poor. If the kings of this country are not firm, they will all remain poor."

"The king... hold on..."

"Yes, I hope villagers can have a better life when Master Garrod grows up"

"Yeah. Then I'll try harder. Protect everyone and fight. So, make your country bigger."

"... are you going to fight?

"Yeah. It works better than Al. I was taught how to fight part-time the other day."

Damn right.

I took out Garrod, who knew nothing about the outside in castle life, to show him the life of all sorts of land.

So, because I wanted you to know that life in the castle is not the norm, and that we all work hard, even though we have a hard life.

That was a success, Garrod, who seems to have taken an interest in the lives of ordinary people.

Because of this, I thought you would know a little bit about it in the eyes of the common people and think of something from it.

Had you already taught your part-time brother how to fight and do it?

What will happen to this child in the future?

Will I become a man who loves to fight like my part-time brother?

Now that we are still in a world of war, that is by no means a bad thing.

Because where you've been nice to the common people, if you lose the fight, you lose everything.

but if you mean to fight for your country, anyway, it's hard to fight because you want to.

If we continue to seek battles based solely on our fighting instincts, it will be too damaging.

Above all, it will be an endless battle.

What's the matter?

I want Garrod to be able to capture and think things in a more balanced way as a king.

but it's a little bad for me to be Garrod's educator.

He protected Garrod and became the principal deputy, and now even the prime minister and general of this country.

So if you become the king's educator, Barca might get the status of a slate stone.

but there will still be rebellion there.

I became the principal agent because of the assumption that I would temporarily assume that position on behalf of my young lord.

Besides, I have no upbringing.

When I say upbringing here, I mean knowledge that is not complementary to previous life's knowledge.

It refers to common sense and knowledge possessed by noble blood muscles such as kings and nobles.

Somehow, no matter how far I go, there's no such thing as nobility.

While we teach them to behave in a royal manner and behave in a standing manner naturally, we must also teach them how to fight, and be raised not to scorn ordinary people.

If so, will you ask him?

Thus, while attending funerals everywhere with Garrod, in response to Garrod's interest, I made up my mind about who to entrust to this child's educator.

"Am I going to be Lord Garrod's fu?

"Oh, can you ask me, Lion? I mean, I'm not qualified for anything but you."

"But..."

"Please, take it on. If Lion, who has worked in the Wang Metropolitan Area and dealt with various aristocratic opponents without any particular problems, it would be perfect, at least, about courtesy. You're the only one left, Lion."

It was Lion that I chose as Garrod's educator.

He is also the brother of my wife Lilina and is now in charge of diplomacy as a Graham nobleman in the Kingdom of Fontana.

If I could teach you common sense as a king, it would be the most appropriate of Fontana's.

I wouldn't tell Lion directly about that, but this guy is also an evaluation point where he's cold in a way.

I believe that the essence of Lion is that he is a strategist, not a diplomat.

If there is a battle, Lyon is not the way to fight on that battlefield, but the kind that tries to see through everything on the board to identify trends in that battle and twist the strategy.

In other words, I can also say that Lion thinks of a person who actually does battle in battle as a comma.

For example, the same goes for me when I fought Pessi, the Ulk family, who thought I was going to die the most.

At that time he fought the Arborest family in the west and gave it the effect of taking over its principals, but Lion immediately told me that he should head east to rescue Carlos.

And now that we have Fort Einlad, where Carlos is, he has suggested that I, who defeated the Urk family's real son the previous year, should look like an easy bait for Urk opponents to eat, and for that he will be a part of it.

As a result, Urk's superior magic [black] nearly made us steamy.

That battle is still unforgettable.

How many people have died among the positions made in [Wall Architecture]?

The wear and tear rate was also knocking out amazing figures.

That should have been the same for Lion.

In the same position, the Graham army had a higher rate of wear and tear than the Barca army.

but still, Lion never complained about Carlos in that fight.

That would be because, for one thing, I saw the army, and myself, as a comma.

He probably thought he needed an army that would dare be a throwaway pawn to ensure that he discussed the main class of the Urk family called Pessi.

Besides, the abandoned pawn also contained his own life.

To win, calmly, or even at the expense of the lives of your allies, you gain victory.

Lyon is a man of such calm.

Sometimes Garrod, who will eventually become king, may need to think like that.

but even humans with only such aspects are in trouble.

Lion can be ruthless if he basically needs to, but usually he can think and act on what's around him.

That's what I thought. I desperately convinced Lion.

And he managed to flutter Lion's neck vertically, proposing it to the Council and gaining endorsement from around him.

Thus, Garrod was to be educated by Lyon when he turned 6.

Well, until then, I'll take you to all sorts of places like this once in a while.

He prayed that he would become a decent king, and then he decided to take Garrod to attend funerals and such.
