Sweet Reincarnation

Episode 377 Protector of Dragons

Hahaha, you did it.

"Your Majesty, this is no laughing matter."

Inside the office, Carison laughed in a good mood.

Pais, of course, is the reason I'm laughing.

Even though I have prepared an unparalleled reward, I have declined all of it. It was pleasantly laughing.

Marquis Siebert, the secretary of state, looks reluctant to such a cheerful king.

It was precisely a model of a face that smashed bitter insects.

While gnashing his back teeth, he looked like he was holding back his anger.

It would be disrespectful to reject the honor that His Majesty has bestowed upon you.

The reason I'm angry is simple.

Pais turned down all the honors that Carison could give him.

I felt rude to throw away the honor and admiration that I would have received if I had been truly impressed.

Is that so?

"That's right." Isn't it growing? "

"Come on, if it's growing, I'll get what I can get, and I'll ask for it instead." You should be praised for your humble and unabashed attitude. ”

That's what I'm talking about.

Human beings are not as angry as they are denied their values.

When you are told that the food you are eating is delicious and is not delicious. When I was told that the cartoons I enjoyed watching were a waste. Or when the opposite sex you're in love with falls in love with a scum like you can't help it.

There is no time when I am as angry with myself as when others come to me with a positive assessment.

The denial of values has a strong aversion to denying oneself.

And what about what Pais did?

The award of the highest prestigious medal and the status of guardian of the princess who would be proud of any nobleman.

Marquis Siebert would have been moved by his tears if he had been able to give it to him.

I immediately turned down such a wonderful thing, as if it was worthless. That's in the middle of nowhere. Fully.

Marquis Siebert may well feel uncomfortable in a way.

I was close to seeing the scene of throwing away something I could not help but want.

If you see someone who wants you to enter the lottery, and you happen to get a ticket that you missed, but you throw it away because you don't need it, you'll get angry.

"It's not like you're going to be angry." I just said I didn't want him to do what I said I was going to do. I didn't know there was a law against saying you don't need what you don't need. "

"Hmm..."

In response to Carison's words, Marquis Siebert mumbles.

Certainly, it's strange that I should be angry at the irrelevant conversation between Pais and Carrison. In theory, that is true.

Emotional problems, however, are not rational.

Carrison treats his subordinates who struggle between reason and emotion with pleasure.

"Besides, it's not like I turned it down because I'm blameless."

What do you say?

The Marquis of Siberto encourages the continuation of Carison's story.

"In the first place, it was an honor I tried to give you this time."

Yes.

"Gives a lot of honor. I thought this would make me more loyal to the royal family and give my daughter a trustworthy guardian."

"I refused that honor."

"... perhaps my daughter's guardian discovered that it wasn't just honor."

The royal guardianship is a great honor, but is it a reason to refuse it?

Guardian of the princess.

This can also give the princess a convenient way of thinking by watching over all the princess's activities.

That is why other nobles are now seeking this position.

As a Charlison, I want something with as little political colour as possible and little greed for power.

In that regard, Pais is full of points.

There is no doubt about the thinness of power greed. If you are willing to take power, you have as much power as you want. You can work at the boarding school. You can vandalize the Royal Research Institute. Or you can join the Central Army and other national armies. It would be possible to raise the status of a relative to high nobles like Fabarec and Viscount Bombino.

Either way, it's easy to gain more status and power with Pais' talent, network, and magic.

But Pais has never shown such obsession.

This thinness of power is good enough to assume a position of extremely strong influence over the royalty.

Politically, it will become an emerging aristocrat, but the Mortelun family is in a neutral position.

This is the remnant of the time when Casserole was making money in a false position as a mercenary.

The Viscount Mortelun family itself is an emerging nobleman whose contemporaries are the first generation, and whose place is in the army, the provincial lord of the Duke of Kadureček, but Pace's daughter-in-law is the sister of the contemporary Hubarek frontier uncle, which is good in balance. In recent years, it has also restored its relationship with Anise's parents, the wife of Casserole.

The Mortelun family is a central court aristocrat, a regional lord and nobleman, a southern warlord, a daughter-in-law of the eastern warlord, and an emerging nobleman who has restored his relationship with the traditional nobility.

Political neutrality is close to perfection.

The royal guardian deserves it.

But what if these neutral, powerless people actually become guardians?

As a guardian royalty, I would be the most reliable consultant. However, the guardian will also have a tremendous difficulty.

If you are a person who is biased in your position, even if you can apply external pressure, you can consider only a small number of people. All you have to do is listen to the opinions of people close to where you stand. You don't have to listen to your opponent.

However, it is unlikely to be a neutral person. Top and bottom, front and back, left and right. Attention must be paid to various directions and remain in a neutral position.

A royal guardian is, in a sense, like a firewall.

We must lead them on the right path and lead them to better beings.

The hard work will go on forever.

As a king, I want talent, and I'm sure it's an honor. However, the hardships that await afterwards are unusual.

Of course, you will be rewarded for your hard work. However, Carrison thinks that Pais does not want honor until he has such a hard time in the first place.

"He must have read my stomach that far." On top of that, I refused. It's not something I can do. "

As a king, I solicited the utmost. But Pais refused.

By becoming the princess's guardian, he would have been surrounded by the royal family and reluctant to be exploited by the "unique wisdom" that was at this dinner party.

"But I have a face, too." I'll give you what you need. I won't refuse you this time. "

If that happens, I think it would be a complete honor.

The product is returned as a gift. In itself, it's something that ordinary people don't care about.

What the king gave back has become a problem, and this is how Carrison and the Marquis of Sibert are troubled.

Granting honor to Pais. This is definite.

The current political situation has created a situation that cannot be avoided.

Pais defeated the dragon, used its resources to contribute to magic technology, and even became close to the prince and played a great assistant in the mission.

Seen from the side, it was an individual who contributed quite a bit to the royal family and the God Kingdom.

I don't give a damn about this. Even if he refuses, it doesn't seem to be Pais' abnegation from a third party's point of view. You see him exploiting a teenage boy who doesn't know anything.

I wonder if my men will be happy to follow my cheeky boss.

No, for a knight, loyalty is a sale. It is loyalty that you buy it at the highest possible price. Loyalty also declines under the wicked king.

Sometimes we fight for our lives. The result is far too irrational in terms of money. Even though it wasn't actually kicked, that kind of reputation spreads.

Pais once declined to be rewarded in public.

But I'll still give you a reward for that. If you don't do that, you'll doubt your qualities as a king.

"Yes, I'll give you the title."

Carrison remembered that there was just a good reward.

What's your title?

Umu

The Divine Kingdom has a name that cannot be identified without the King's permission.

You can try it yourself by saying, "The King's Vassal," or I can say, "The essence of the National Army." If you forgive anyone for that, you'll be in chaos.

Therefore, the title has existed as an unwritten law for a long time.

For example, the Marquis of Siberto has the title "King's Right Arm", which the King also recognized. I didn't give it to Carison to call it that, but Carison admitted that it was okay to call her that.

Pais will be given the same appropriate title.

In this case, Pais would have no real harm, and it would be profitable to use the title only at a convenient time. In a sense, it's a king's certification. There is a lot of usage.

If so, what title will you be given?

Most of all, an honorary position that is hardly profitable. That is also a good title that I would be happy with.

“So, what's the title?”

Marquis Sibert asks.

Carison, who had been thinking for a while, narrowed it down to one. If you don't have the right one, you can make a new one.

Dragon Guardian

The marquis smiled that it was good.
