The reborn aristocrat is ambitious! "You've got pretty good status, give em to me"

Early March.

Even by this time Randolph remained mentally ill.

Morgan, who tried to do something, ordered the knight to "let him take a stroll in the king's capital to change his mood," and pushed him forcefully into the carriage, among other things.

At that time, however, he showed symptoms such as vomiting and eyesight, and found that the forceful means were counterproductive.

Contact with the outside still seems to be tough.

When that happens, the question arises as to what to do with the Lords surrogate.

In practical terms, if there are bureaucrats, we can handle it, but we will eventually need someone to write a signature to approve their finished documents.

That's fine with Isaac, but he wasn't educated as a lord yet.

I may sign everything without understanding the contents of the documents.

The biggest problem here is that Isaac might be fooled.

If even those whose roots are serious "pass practically unchecked with documents of any content," a certain percentage of those who really think bad come out.

For example, proposing a policy in favor of a deputy with whom you are associated.

Even with assistants such as secretaries, their emotions affect their work more than they are human, too.

Nor can what they say be completely peppered.

That's where Hans, Morgan's brother, comes in.

I have been educated as a lord, even though I have had no connection with the death for about thirty years.

But that's enough for now.

Because the Lord's work also requires information from the past.

- We've been friends with the dog monkeys since there was a rub between the Ohms and the △ △ family a hundred years ago.

Sometimes we have to settle for rubbing between nobles based on past information such as this.

And with reference to previous jurisprudence, which decisions may be taken, it is necessary to ensure that there is no dissatisfaction from both sides.

It is the deputies who are entrusted with the city to judge the appeals of the civilians, but the Marquis Wellrod must also act as a "judge" to judge matters between deputies.

It's not a job Isaac can do without knowledge or experience.

Having Hans as Isaac's guardian actually do his job, Isaac makes him see and learn practice as a decoration.

A method was conceived that

Originally, I just wanted to ask Morgan's sisters to assist me as a relative in the house where they were married.

But there's no relatives with those houses because Jude killed all the then principals and successors.

Morgan also made only one kid out of Randolph.

Because of this, it is a matter of no one being entrusted with acting as lord in these emergency situations.

Those wrinkles were coming to Isaac.

Suddenly there was no meeting, and Isaac and Hans met face to face first.

"I haven't seen him in person in two years."

"Right."

Hans stands similarly like Morgan and his brothers.

But I got the impression that Osama was somewhat frigid because of the thin, well-groomed Kaisel mustache that didn't suit me.

"Is that the example you have there?

Hans' gaze is directed at Isaac.

"Nice to meet you, big uncle. I'm Isaac."

Isaac greets lightly for himself.

"It's Hans. He's deputy secretary at the church in Wang Du."

"Yes, Grandpa asked."

When it comes to churches, not everyone handles festivals.

Because those roles are performed by those who can handle magic.

In the church, those who can use therapeutic magic are treated as elites.

As much as bishops entrusted with the Diocese of the Kingdom of Reed have also been appointed who can use magic, priority was given to those who can use magic when they are appointed to positions.

But that doesn't mean we don't need people who can't use magic.

The Church also needs more manpower to operate than it is to be an organization.

Among them, noble children like Hans were heavily used because they were educated.

Because even if you can't use magic, you can act as a clerk.

"Hans. As I wrote in my letter, I don't know what will happen to Randolph. For now, I'd like to ask for Isaac's guardian for just one year."

The story Isaac was asked before he met Hans said it would take the form of "temporarily leaving for a parish in Welrod territory, rather than being vulgar".

Hans also builds a position within the church.

It's painful to make you throw that away.

Besides, if there are people inside the church, it could be of some use.

So nominally, they're going to let Isaac's guardian remain affiliated with the church.

"I don't mind about that. But..."

"I know. Let me make a big donation three years after the Secretary's term expires."

Morgan and Hans look at each other and laugh niggly.

I guess Hans is quite ambitious, too.

Apparently there was not only a brotherly affectionate favor, but also a financial deal.

"Hell's Sharpening depends on Kim," he says, needless to say, but that's still valid in this world.

Perhaps even when it took the form of Hans' "outposting to the Marquis of Wellrod territory," the corresponding amount seems to be moving.

"Well, whatever happens in three years, as long as you're happy to donate as a church official,"

Hans grins as he touches his beard.

It's a white word to say that there's nobody here but Morgan, Hans and Isaac.

No, maybe he's afraid of leaking out of Isaac's mouth.

Many even adults have a light mouth.

It is also impossible not to believe the strength of a child's mouth.

"Isaac, those who are entrusting city and village deputies are scheduled to gather this afternoon. Let's have a light meeting there and get used to it. I will attend, too, but I will not speak out. Let me do what I can now as Lord's deputy."

"Yes, Grandpa"

Isaac's face is nervous and tense.

For once, I have an agenda for one up front, but I'm anxious to be able to talk to you well.

They say I can fail, but I was still anxious.

"Do what Hans wrote in his letter, too."

"Yeah, I'll take care of it. Regards, Isaac."

"Thank you very much for your guidance whip. Big Uncle."

"Um, let's do whatever we can to help. By the way, it's a different story."

Hans talks to Isaac.

"The clause 'Make sure that the practice of treatment by the elves is not an obstacle to the Church' is also included at the time of the trade agreement. Keep in mind that Isaac will not be treated by the elves either."

"Absolutely."

It's like not bothering to create and treat situations that don't interfere with the Church.

"… of course"

This was something Hans didn't have to tell me.

Church officials were the ones who felt the most at stake in resuming interaction with the elves.

The Church conducts therapeutic acts and collecting gold in the name of ”donations” to them is a major source of income.

So they were wary of being deprived of their role as hospitals by magical elves.

We knew the danger of encroaching on the Church's vested interests, so Isaac also didn't have the hair, such as the intention of letting the elves imitate the doctors.

At least, now.

"I'm going to ask the elves to do the civil work mainly. They say that if exposed to wind and rain, the magically maintained roads will also deteriorate, so they need to be rebuilt in a certain period of time. So rest assured that the elves cannot afford to be involved in therapeutic practices"

Hans nodded satisfactorily at Isaac's explanation.

'Cause I was pretty worried about this.

Because even if it was included in the agreement, I thought Isaac was going to look for some way out.

The lack of credibility is due to poor day-to-day conduct.

If the elves have no leeway to perform therapeutic acts, I am reassured that they will not be forced into the healthcare industry.

"Isaac, Viscount Halifax is also here early today. I'm talking to Hans, so go talk to him."

"Yes, Grandpa. Uncle, thank you again later."

Yeah, I'll see you later.

Isaac was right about his grandfather, saying hello to Hans before leaving the room.

My grandfather would also like to talk to my brother a little.

Isaac was also concerned about his other grandfather, Viscount Halifax.

I thought we should go see each other once and for all as they say here.

----------

Entering the room with Viscount Halifax, he was stared at with a rugged face.

Isaac wandered for a moment, but he couldn't escape.

Sit patiently in front of him.

"Long time no see, Grandpa"

"Long time no see..."

Even if we exchange greetings, he still looks harsh.

Isaac feels uncomfortable.

Viscount Halifax spoke with a rugged face.

"I should have taken him by force then"

"What?"

"If I'd brought you back, I wouldn't have to do that."

Isaac didn't know what he was talking about for a moment.

But I understood right away.

Viscount Halifax sees the scene where Isaac killed Nathan with his own hands.

He must have been worried about Isaac, who had to commit the contraindication of "killing his brother".

He may have a hard face because he regrets not being able to help him then.

"I don't regret it. As a successor to the Marquis Welrod, I think it was necessary one day."

Isaac ran out of grandeur.

I set that case up behind my back.

I don't want to worry about being nice to the people inside me.

By being grand enough, I wished I could lighten up the load of Viscount Halifax's heart at all.

"As a successor to the Marquis of Wellrod...? Indeed, for Marquis Welrod, he became just one grandson. You can't tell Viscount Halifax to come to the house anymore."

Viscount Halifax's face turns into a lonely look.

Maybe he really thought he'd come home to Isaac and Lucia.

That's a pretty lame idea.

But I guess that's all you were worried about.

I put aside about two breaths and now it turned to a crisp look.

"Isaac"

"Yes."

- There's something important to talk about.

Isaac, who felt that way, corrects his posture.

"When I became like my predecessor, Lady Jude, I heard from Marquis Welrod. Is that true?

Yes, it's true.

Isaac answers with eyes to eyes with Viscount Halifax.

Looking into its eyes, Viscount Halifax, who felt it was not a lie, takes a deep breath once.

"I already had my real brother in my hands and even the Carmine Chamber of Commerce was able to swap in. Perhaps you have the qualities to point to Master Jude. But you can't rest any longer than you once walked down Shura's path."

"... ready"

(Hopefully, I'd like to rest in moderation...)

I think so, but I know Isaac himself.

If you want something more than strength, you have to pay the difference with something other than strength.

That's the consideration of effort, and if you want everything, you don't have time to rest.

I knew it was a long and painful journey.

However, there is no option to avoid the tsu road, where the ordeal continues.

It would be rude if we continued to strive for heights not to waste their deaths more than we have stepped on the lives of Nathan and Melinda.

We need to build more piles of corpses and pave the way to our dreams.

That was Isaac's mission today.

Viscount Halifax, feeling Isaac's readiness, exhales a deep sigh.

"If you mean to go for Master Jude, I guess I can't follow you. But one day I can listen to you in my chest when I feel 'tired'. I don't know if I can fix it, but come talk to me anytime."

"Thank you, Grandpa"

Viscount Halifax also smiles when Isaac laughs at Nicole.

"By the way, I'm having trouble being scared by Tiffany..."

"That's... I was wondering if time would fix it..."

Exactly. Viscount Halifax seems to be in trouble with this.

Tiffany is also a cute granddaughter, so I don't want to force her to make up with Isaac.

Viscount Halifax looks in trouble.

"Pup."

Seeing that face, Isaac erupted.

Viscount Halifax laughed bitterly at Isaac when he saw how he was doing and said, "This guy knows he's in trouble."

The air in the field soothes a little.

Then for a while, they had a chat.

The time I spent with Viscount Halifax before the meeting where the nobles, who were Lord in Wellrod territory, gathered, eased Isaac's tensions.
