"It's a pleasure to meet you, Master Alphonse Barca. My name is Sebastian, and I serve the Vandenburgs.”
Several carriages have arrived in the capital of the Orient country.
Moreover, it is not as solid as the merchants load goods, it is properly furnished with a roof, walls and peepholes, and its walls are painted with a seal.
It was a tailor-made carriage, obviously, with high-ranking people on board.
There are several such carriages, and mercenaries armed to surround them are constantly guarding their surroundings.
The imposing group hastened to this point for a very short distance.
Even before we arrived in the Orient, we had been sent a foretaste, and the rulers and mercenaries were already resting in the inn we had prepared.
According to reports, I'm feeling quite tired.
As expected, it must have been a distraction to come through a number of small countries, not only in the country of Brillia Magic.
However, despite the fact that he came here in such a hurry, there was no doubt that there were people who worked in the Vandenburg family, the nobility of the great country, and the man named Sebastian, the shaky butler, had a style.
Maybe he's from some aristocrat too.
Even though I was just talking to you in a very natural way, there was an atmosphere where I had to stretch my spine and deal with it.
The others who are facing Sebastian with me are always nervous.
"Welcome, you've come a long way." Did you like the accommodation you prepared? "
I answer to Sebastian with fervor.
Seeing that, the Vandenburgs, who were with Sebastian, reacted with a twitch.
At the same time, officials from the Orient side were paleing their faces.
Sebastian hasn't changed his expression at all.
Perhaps it is the atmosphere around you that is right.
A house of counts among the great powers.
It will undoubtedly outweigh those at the apex of the Orient army.
By the way, it was the same when I was in Brillia.
Students in the noble house could be divided into two types.
A man of the Count's power, or less.
For a long time, students from families above the Earls' House were mainly present in the Academy, and students below the Earls' House, the Baron, or the Knights' House were in the Magic Labyrinth.
I was aiming to increase my magic power by wandering around the labyrinth and possess the magic power of the countess.
In that sense, the Vandenburg family, the countess of Brillia, is definitely a high-ranking nobleman.
And it has a power and history that is incomparable to the nobility of a small country.
Of course, those who serve there are proud to be at the Count's house, and I must think I've ignored that and spoken arrogantly.
However, it is not good to be too polite to respond here.
Because he is not the head of the Vandenburg family, nor is he their daughter.
He's just a butler.
If I bowed my head to that butler, I would be recognized by both sides as a butler or less.
This in turn leads to the future position of the Orient country.
So I hit [Intimidation].
Sebastian and the people behind him with eyes that look down at me will be able to inject magic thorns into their opponents.
Even though this [Intimidation] was not spell-crafted, it was a magic spell that I used quite a bit.
Speaking of which, you developed this in the magic labyrinth of the enchanted kingdom of Brillia.
The purpose was to create a gap for the monster magician who was there for a moment, but now it was only used against humans.
Initially, I was pursuing how to sharply sharpen my magic power and knock it into the opponent, but [intimidation] has changed a little lately.
Because there was no one in the Orient that had more magic power than me.
That's why I fainted every time I hit [Intimidation] on those guys, and it just got harder to deal with them later.
As a result, this [intimidation] started to be used as a bargaining technique.
In short, did you learn to add and subtract, or did you feel extreme?
Taking into account the amount of magic power of the opponent, I tried to pierce it with moderate magic power.
Then, although the opponent does not faint, he feels difficulty in breathing or a sense of urgency.
Unlike the previous magic thorns and spear-like shapes, it would be like hitting a wedge.
As a result, the opponent will face me with a sense of nervousness without even knowing it, so I won't be licked.
Somehow, from my appearance, which is still regarded as a child, it was easier to use [intimidation] like this to bring about good results.
"Excuse me." My men seem to lack courtesy and I apologize. Would you excuse the rudeness? ”
But that's what Sebastian said.
Sebastian himself may feel nervous, but he is still tense without changing his expression.
Then he bowed his head, seeing without seeing him, how were the men behind him.
"Forgive me. So, is Elizabeth safe?" I've lost my composure when I heard she was suffering from a disease. I'll be careful. "
When I heard Sebastian's words, I lowered the output of my magic power by one step.
Now you're still nervous, but it's easier to breathe than before.
Sebastian's breath leaked out from behind him like a shallow sigh.
I'm glad.
It was unknown what kind of people would come from the marital home, but this butler could be said to be easy to talk to.
He told her that he was worried about Elizabeth, who had been brought by Sebastian and the others, and began to talk about her.
