We got to the rendezvous place a lot earlier than we promised.

It's unusual for me. Aren't you the first?

It was worth the effort to speed up the train to Wangdu. Tonight, let's make fun of those bad friends with this stuff.

Expect to be led to the back of the store by the clerk.

When you open the heavy door...

"... I'm disappointed in you guys"

"Come early, what's the word?"

"That's right. You're too late, Professor."

Two bad friends, Duke Walter Howard and Duke Ricardo Linster, were tipping the glass.

On the table, three bottles of wine.

It's lamentable that the Duke under heaven is starting to drink before the night book goes down. You won't be able to do this unless you drink this case.

Take an empty seat and get a bottle of wine.

"Ricardo, is this the wine we're selling next time?

"That's right. Unfortunately, I don't have enough to sell. It's all sold out."

"It's not just wine, this crop is ripped off, too. I've ordered Graham to turn it around, and I'm turning it around as much as I can, but he'll need more production after next year. Eat. It's delicious."

Walter's offering me a fresh vegetable salad on a small plate.

Are you maintaining this freshness... boulder, I guess I just said.

Pinch the salad, drink the wine, and ask the two of you the real question.

"-So, about Prince Gerald this time, what are the views of both Dukes? All of a sudden, you must have been summoned from the realm, but you're asking me what happened?

"... oh"

"... whatever. You did something stupid to me."

Ricardo wines with a bitter expression.

Walter is a big sigh. This time, your daughter is doing pretty bad things, too.

"Tina, to her mother - does she look like Rosa, she has somewhere to run. Magic is now available and the crisis of Allen, the benefactor. I don't know what it feels like. But as a result."

"He was in a serious crisis. I also hear he took refuge and took a deep hand. Nobody died because he and Lydia were on the spot and... we're just lucky, aren't we? Lisa was also a werewolf when she was rewarded."

"I know.... I'm going to tell my daughter strongly."

"Yeah, you should do that. Whatever - 'Great Magic' exists in them. And only Allen can stop it. Unless we find a solution, they and he are more united than ever. We have to avoid getting along."

………………

The two evil friends pour wine into each other's glasses silently and drink it all at once.

I understand. But... is that kind of you?

No, it's hard being a parent.

I may be careless, but I'm having a lot of fun. That's a good drink.

Walter stares at me like that. [M]

"... what are we going to do after this? He is now equal to having gained the power relative to the kingdom. Whatever, it's that personality. It'll never happen like that."

"I agree. Instead, don't you feel responsible? And excessive."

"'If I were more prepared, I would have had other options. It was my downfall that put Tina in danger and involved Lydia. I made the other kids feel scared. You can't, really...'. A godchild who said something like that plainly even though he was dying himself. - All right, you two? Both Allen and Lydia have extraordinary talent. Many times before, I have saved this country with shadows. But."

Drinking wine, I look straight into the eyes of my bad friends.

I put my arms together on the table and told him.

"Those two are only seventeen, seventeen! When we were that age, did we clean up the fate of the kingdom, the idiot prince? Well, I can't believe 'The Great Magic'!... Anyway, there will be people who think about sacrificing and ostracizing him while covering up this case. Is the current Royal Palace magician the head of the house something of a spearhead? I'm willing to wager my position to protest, assuming that story makes sense. [M] Directly to Your Majesty."

"I won't let that happen! He owes a debt of gratitude... for saving Tina once and twice. So is Stella. I hear something seems to have blown out since he taught me - whether or not to succeed my Howard family is still at the consideration stage."

"Walter, I'm sorry, but Allen is the default route to becoming my righteous breath. Lisa is going to, and Lydia is going to... stay away. If you try to force it off, you'll dump the linster soon enough. Miss Tina wasn't the only one who saved his life."

"Well, well. Anyway, in my current position, I can't. Gentlemen, if the Dukes say so, the Royal Alternative. More than the right to inherit the throne is alive, albeit formally... I can't marry Miss Tina, Miss Stella or Lydia. He's not even noble. - Hmm?

Something hooked me up.

The presence of a replacement werewolf leader when he left Allen's hospital room.

Assuming he is the head of or close to the Beast Nation...

"What's up, professor? Keep up the rare, serious faces."

"Hmm. Maybe it'll snow tomorrow."

"... you guys."

He's a terrible friend. People are thinking about corners, measures to open up the situation!

Shall I give it some consideration?

- Then, I would like to reiterate my regret that the daughter-in-law case to me, which is becoming the norm, has been brought up.

I'm not tired of you guys. I can't get it together, shall I stop the college students? Next time I bring it, I'll have to rethink my friendship.
