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

The day after returning to Wellrod, Isaac was enjoying Claude and Tea Time.

Full work is two days after Hans' arrival.

I don't have any urgent work, so I'm getting tired of traveling now.

"Don't you have to go back to the village this year?

I dropped off Bridget returning to the woods this morning.

But Claude remains in the mansion.

Isaac, curious as to why he remained, brought up this topic as a public tale.

"What I have to tell you is in the letter. It's you more than that."

"What, me?

(You woke up to Shota because I'm a beautiful boy!... Well, if you think about it normally, you'll worry about it. I'm sorry I was kidding.)

I apologize in my heart because I've been thinking rude.

Claude is a relatively common sense adult.

Isaac thought he was worried about the child as an adult.

"Anyway, Randolph, I don't know what happens when you're acting Lordship. We need to keep an eye on him nearby."

"Ah... yes..."

Sure, he seemed worried about Isaac, but he seemed worried in a different way.

He lost a lot of credibility after only one incident.

Unfortunately, they just didn't want to stop interacting with humans. It's still better.

"By the way, what's in the letter..."

If you're wary of Isaac, I'm worried about the letter.

Depending on the content, Aloys' attitude may change.

"Rest assured, I just wrote that there was a power dispute at the Marquis Welrod house. Well, to be honest, it just makes my head suspicious to write that a 10-year-old and a 9-year-old fought, so I blurred out the details."

"But isn't that what Mr. Bridget tells you?

Even if I explain it in a letter, there's got to be a leak in Bridget's mouth about Isaac.

I'm sure she'll talk without shutting her mouth.

Claude's consideration would also seem to be in vain.

"It's okay, Bridget was disturbed then. I only understand as much as Isaac killed my brother Nathan. The village chief won't move in Bridget's words without understanding the situation in detail."

"It is."

Now he finds out that his relationship with the elf will not move significantly, and Isaac exhales in a ho.

Look at Isaac like that, Claude stabs the nail.

"But don't forget that one foot at a time is noticed. Now I still have a stronger sense of interacting with the Marquis of Wellrod than with the Reid royal family. If you're a tough guy to hang out with, call out to other villages."

"Yeah, I know. I don't think we can kill each other, so I'm sure you'll feel safe there."

To Isaac, interacting with an elf is like a trump card.

When the relationship deteriorates and the interaction is interrupted, it becomes very difficult.

And I'm not going to imitate selling fights to elves any more than that.

(There's no such thing as a magical elf and war...)

Claude's parents also tend to hate contention.

But even more so, the generation of its parents - Mathias - is different.

They seem to have a pretty belligerent part.

Mathias was the grandfather of the tea glare tap, but when it comes to fighting, he has no hesitation whatsoever in killing people.

Probably because I lived through rough times during my founding years.

That's not all.

Those who hate strife were also fighting in the war two hundred years ago.

I understand that sometimes we have to fight because we love peace.

If you get into a dispute with an elf, not just the Mathias generation, but all the other elves will be turned to the enemy as well.

And Isaac knows the magical power of the elves.

With weapons like swords, spears, and bows, I'm not going to fight an elf opponent who can use the magic of power like a cannon.

I don't sell the charm, but I want to be close as a good neighbor.

I didn't mean for Claude to worry about anything.

Rather, as much as I want to aggressively draw into my people.

"... that?

"What's up?

Isaac comes up with something.

"Mr. Mathias was a martial officer or a mercenary in your ancestral days, and that's how you worked together, wasn't it?

"Oh, that's what I hear"

"So no one worked as a civilian?

"Civilian..."

This is what Isaac just came up with.

"If you have a martial officer, it's not weird to have a civilian," he said.

No warlords involved in the war. But as a civilian, I might be able to draw in.

Two birds with one stone can eliminate the shortage of talent and strengthen their relationship with the elves.

Most importantly, this also requires consideration for the civilian personnel who were there, so it cannot be implemented immediately.

Claude tries to remember if anyone was a civilian and starts to worry.

"Unfortunately, I can't think of anything. I know people who used to run shops, but I don't know anyone who had anything to do with politics."

That didn't mean we'd find the people we needed right away.

I guess that means the world isn't so sweet.

"So, Mr. Claude wants to do my secretarial apprenticeship? If you're near me, you'll know what to think."

"Mmm."

Claude begins to think about Isaac's suggestion.

But I shook my wearing right away.

"No, let's not do that. I assume you're going to be involved in politics as a proxy for the Lords from now on? There must be some things the elves don't want to know. I'm glad you invited me, but I have an ambassadorial role to play, too. We have to keep the right distance from each other."

"Well...... I'm sorry, but I can't help it."

I wish you'd rode the invitation here, but unfortunately you didn't.

But this isn't all Isaac gave up.

Because they want to "keep the whole elf out of the Marquis Welrod family" in the future.

Now it's only a relationship with a neighbor's part-time destination or business partner.

I am not going to help you in the future when you start a revolt.

It is only by human power that we take the country.

If you rely on the elves, you become Isaac and Elf's country, not Isaac's.

I don't want that.

But beyond that - after taking over the country, we want you to establish a deep relationship with the elves to help them look out for the surrounding countries.

I don't have a problem with friendly people.

"Speaking of which, it says in a letter from the village chief that there are no new villages to participate in the earnings"

Claude changed the story.

That's something that Isaac doesn't really want to hear.

"I heard that, too. Looks like you're not riding in a village with distances."

The village of Maulanu, where Claude lived.

The nearby village had the act of making money, selling things at the exchange, getting money, buying goods and going home.

But distant villages are different.

With the city of Tilly Hill and Dwarf at the same distance, the village has gone to the city of Dwarf since its previous relationship.

Of course, the village close to the city of Dwarf is as it has always been.

And distant villages from both used to ask the villages that got salt and other things to increase their fees and replace them.

Isaac also wants to do something about it, but there's nothing humans can do about it: "Distance". Expansion of AC was stagnant in front of a large wall.

"... Can't you just make a path in the woods? The artificial forests are packed with Biscilli trees, but they were pretty open between trees when it was a natural forest, weren't they? I think it's going to change dramatically if you magically narrow the gap between the trees a little bit and have enough roads for a carriage to get through."

Here Isaac guided the answer: "Make a path in the woods".

If the distance is far away, you just need to keep the road in order.

When the road is ready, you don't have to carry a bag of salt and struggle to walk in the woods.

Those who need to be far away if they can use a wagon to increase the amount they can carry in one go will also achieve results commensurate with their struggles.

"The road. There won't be anything I can't do... I wonder. You might want to ask someone who actually comes and goes to the exchange."

"Right. Well, let's see what Mr. Bridget looked like when he got back."

This is not doing anything wrong.

Just listening doesn't have any negative impact.

I could safely consider it.

"Right. Once you've got your way, all you have to do is get the guy who was running the store to do a salt dealership or something in the Elf village.... Oh, but will I miss the exchange then?"

I thought it was a good idea, but there are some bad sides.

I think this is something I shouldn't give myself an answer to, and I try to pull my thoughts in.

"Over time, those who start shops should also come out in an attempt to sell what they have purchased from nature and humans. I don't need to rush to think about something. Time will fix it."

"Yeah, I do think you're right"

Isaac thought what Claude said was best.

Especially the young elves. There are places like humans.

Those who go to distant villages to sell goods and start doing things like pedestrians may also show up.

Instead of trying to do something with the power of politics because of its seriousness, it seemed better to leave it to the flow of nature.

"Though humans don't have as much longevity as elves, you're still young. Don't be in a hurry and do it carefully."

(Even if they say that, I'll have to do a lot of ground-building and stuff within the next 10 years...)

Of course, I can't talk about that.

"I don't know myself, so if you think I'm in too much of a hurry, Mr. Claude will tell me."

Instead of telling the truth, I decided to ask Claude to act as a stopper.

Because if someone stops you when you're in too much of a hurry, you can do so with some relief.

"I don't mind... Wouldn't you rather ask a human adult?

To Claude's words Isaac shook his neck to the side.

"'Cause now I'm the greatest thing in this Marquis of Wellrod territory, right? I figured the adults would be reluctant. Whether it's your boss or your men, I want someone to say" Zuba. "

"Oh, you know what? Then let me tell you when I need you. But remember, there's a fundamental difference between different races, so my attention isn't always right."

"Thank you. You don't have to hesitate, just say it clearly."

The method of terrorizing your surroundings would be good for someone not to let you.

But it also interrupts my men from even advancing what they think is "right".

I'm sure my great-grandfather Jude, too, could have made a different choice somewhere if someone would put the brakes on.

Isaac has already made a lot of noise.

Perhaps the adults around you should be careful and hard.

- From a step away, he pays proper attention if there is a mistake.

It would be a great pleasure to have Claude in such a person.

Even if only a little, he was irreplaceable to Isaac right now, just saying that he would take some role for himself.
