Stranger’s Handbook

149 For the wedding.

"Pope Gabella's letter tells me to put him on his side as a daughter and use him as an escort... is that okay?

"As the daughter of the Grand Duke, wobbles work hard! The kingdom of the elves would be safe if Grand Duke Zest were alive."

"Sir, are you sure?

"Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh?

When I heard why Kathua pushed me to be my adopted daughter, there was no way I could say no.

You asked for the fridge...... but Kature would have a reason too

"You have no choice, do you? For Pope Gabella's sake... and Albert doesn't know what he's talking about, so shut up."

"I've known her a long time. You can't turn that down if you want."

Kathua in arms and talking, but the real thing isn't, is it?

I did have a fridge letter... but that's not the only reason

Elf's role as a watchdog from the country and his adoption to protect himself.

"Ma, I hope that's all right in front of the building... shall we hear the truth? My daughter."

"... oh, it's been hundreds of years since I've been called my daughter"

Too bad this baba, who is tripping lightly, is going to be my daughter... hundreds of years, how old are you really?

See how it goes while using therapeutic magic on Albert, whose face is more than double swollen

I know what I'm talking about, but it's because the dog was busted by Kathua.

"Kathua. You're a good boy, so tell me."

You haven't heard back from Lori since the treatment was over.

I thought she was still tripping. She looks serious.

Was it bad for you to treat me like a child?

I want you to say it again.

"... tell me because you're a good boy"

"Call your name, stroke your head and do it again!

I thought you were angry. The other way around!

You troublesome bastard...... are you so happy to treat children?

"Kathua. You're a good boy, so tell me."

"Yes, sir! It's time to get married and have kids. But in Elf Country, there's only an old opponent, so the Grand Duke of Zest... I don't think you can catch a young man if you're a daughter on your dad!

I'm getting migraines...... I just get called 'Daddy' by an older Baba. What's 'on Daddy' even though it's tight

Who taught you these words... there's only a fridge.

Besides, the search for a son-in-law is too oblique.

"Hey, Kathua. If you're going to be a parent and child, why don't we just talk about it for real? Adopted for that reason..."

"That's why? This is outrageous! Every day, every day, a man doesn't know what it's like to be his second wife. How old do you think you are?"

That logic is strange.

You would be older...

"Besides, Daddy doesn't have a lot of pawns for political marriage. If you're scared, you're just fine, right?

"I won't deny that. But, okay?

"Certainly, there are aspects of it as a political ploy. I don't deny it... but I'm a girl too!

I don't know if there's a girl like you around.

I was able to swallow that line, and I want you to praise me.

"There's finally someone who can take care of Elf Country. Then you want to have your first marriage and raise a child! If you miss this opportunity, the wrinkles... the wrinkles..."

"Sir, I'm too pitiful to hear any more"

"My lord, the candle will do something about it. I can't stop crying when I think about my daughter being single for hundreds of years... please forgive me already"

"... OK, so don't cry. Because I'm going to adopt her."

In front of the three tears, that's all I could say.

That's how Loribaba became my adopted daughter.

"Sir, Sir Albert is back from the Empire City. Here is His Majesty's letter."

That Kathua would be adopted, Albert became a messenger and informed the Empire.

It's been a big bargain sale lately.

But I'm guessing this news will be stomach-friendly for His Majesty.

"Oh, you've had a hard time getting to Imperial City in a row. You should get some rest."

"Ha! Thank you for your words. Let me just take a little break."

Albert, who continued to fly to the Imperial City in this short period of time, must have just been tired

He left the office with a slightly worse complexion.

You don't seem to have any verbal matters to convey... so does it say in detail in the letter?

Open a handy envelope and check inside

"Here we go!

If that elf's head court magician is your adopted daughter, you need someone to marry, right?

My son's unmarried, but you'd be interested, wouldn't you?

Don't deepen your bond with Elf's country or with you! Look forward to it.

Unlike last time, you seem to enjoy yourself, Your Majesty.

I guess marrying Wis was too early to tell because I was afraid.

Even if you were married to an adopted daughter, it would be enough to connect with deterrence.

"Did His Majesty's son have anyone else besides His Majesty's next emperor's man?

"No, I remember His Royal Highness was the only child of His Majesty the Emperor's boy"

I just answered not to say that su making tea is normal

... Does that mean Kathua is the Empress? There won't be one.

Or are you even a concealer?

"Keep this matter confidential. If there's a hidden child, it could be a disturbance."

"Yes, I do, I will. Kathua, do you keep secrets from the lady, too?

"That would be better. It's about him, so we can get on the dragon and raid his fiancée."

"Your husbands' children are full of tendons. Only Lady Wiss needs you to grow up quietly."

"You'll be fine. Catalina will educate you well as a champion."

"Sir Catalina is also quite a martial artist with that..."

…………

It could have been a missed candidate...... With that in mind, the day in Elf's country went by

"Sir, Miss Tsubaki's wedding is finally tomorrow. Your daughter should be here today."

"This way? In the same mansion, there wouldn't be anything here, would there?

Today's meeting with the nobles of another country, Norma came back to the office, and Su started saying strange things to me.

Prince Mars' mansion is a big one, with quite a few rooms.

Tsubaki lives in his own room with his own maid.

"Sir, it's the way my daughter does when she gets married. Forgot?

"... because I thought we were still ahead of us."

answering with a cup of tea, she sighs

I hope you don't look so sorry.

"On the eve of the wedding, parents and children sleep together. Even if he's adopted, that's not an exception, is it?

"Oh, you said Beat was crying so hard at that time,"

It's easy to imagine because it's about that troubled master.

I don't know, he said he was a sweet father to Beato... next time I think I'll screw that up and have a drink with him

"So get ready"

"Prepare for what? You'll be able to get another bed."

Hurr, I can't even hide it. With a big sigh, Su shakes his head.

Hey, turn to your husband. That would be terrible... surprisingly, I'm mentally weak, huh?

"You're going to sleep in the bed with me, right? It doesn't make sense to sleep separately. Sir, Sonia must have taught you."

"Wait, I didn't hear that! Master Sonia didn't tell me that much either."

Kyotong su, but soon he noticed something and squeezed his expression

"Normally the mother will play that role, so I guess you didn't explain it. Don't worry, I'll tell you now."

"I'm not worried about that..."

"It is common for fathers to participate as surrogates in the absence of a mother or in the event of circumstances. Of course, the family as well as the father will be there… there are three of us this time"

"Oh, really? Is that normal? The three of you, Tsubaki Kathua and me... what the hell is that?"

If you hold your head while interacting like that, the door is knocked and the media comes in

She's supposed to be escorting Tsubaki, so I'm guessing you're looking down on this event.

"Happy day, my lord! Enjoy your last night."

"Hey, media. Is it okay for a man parent to be with his daughter? Is that normal?

I guess I'm upset, too.

I'd like to ask you for an hour why you asked an unrelated media outlet about normal or common sense.

"What? Oh, I'm fine. The evening before is a family night club. And there's nothing to complain about or push."

"You're really gonna be okay, aren't you? I'd like you to give me a break about Beat scolding me later..."

"Don't worry about that. The night before, you're going to have a family order and a maid, right? Of course, it's just women. Except Lord Zest, he's a man, but he can only participate."

Right, is it a sleepover thing that brings together servant women from families and houses!

I see, then you don't get mad... maybe.

"I've got some new night clothes for tonight, too. Oh, I'm so excited."

That's what I said and laughed, Su and the media discussing their plans for tonight

Apparently some things had been decided beforehand, and in a few minutes she left the room

I was eavesdropping on the conversation, but it seems like an event to have fun with my parents' last bachelor night while eating sweets

There are people in Japan who would do the same thing, but it's not a custom level.

"Is that a thought? Sir."

"No, I thought the customs of this world were interesting. There are still things I don't know."

I had a sigh of tea that Su prepared for me.

But I felt like I was missing something.

She seems to be the same standing in front of me, with a difficult face

""... ah!!

We raised our voices at the exact same time, and we ran up to the door and we opened up ramblingly.

"I don't care who you are. Bring the media idiot! Tell me you can't attend the ceremony the night before!

"Somebody take up Sir Media's nightwear! Right now!

A few minutes later, the dragon-bit media was brought to the office.

"Or, my lord. With your mouth... tell me... if you... you'll see. The dragon... has to be Sir Albert... I can't."

Interruptly. That's all I say, the bloody, cramped media.

Do you want me to do some therapeutic magic... next time you have to teach me how to handle this or I'll have a dead man... Sorry, Media
