"Ma, stay! Why did you do that... Didn't that get a handkerchief from Loretta? Was I supposed to seek an engagement with Loretta in return for making the dragon grown up?
"What!"
Now it was Isaac's turn to be surprised.
I don't know sappily where my engagement story with Loretta came from.
(No, wait. Dragon on handkerchief...... Valentine's Day!
I came here and Isaac finally remembered.
Valentine's Day in this world is when a graduating girl sends a gift to a boy and a boy gives a girl permission from her family to get engaged.
Only people of marriageable age have an event to do with it.
So Isaac wasn't even close, and I've only thought about Valentine's Day as a business opportunity.
Because of that, I've forgotten.
(Damn, if you would at least give it to me on February 14th...... I don't know about out-of-season gifts. Mostly, an event I've never had an edge on...... NOT! There it is, the edge!
Isaac remembered four years ago.
- That Lisa, who couldn't find her fiancée until just before graduation, gave Isaac a handkerchief that no one had received.
(That's totally sweet and sour! Well, I'll forget about those memories!
From Lisa at that time, I felt as if I had cut myself in a previous life.
So I guess Isaac was also left in the depths of nature and memory.
I've completely forgotten it before.
(Is that it? Well, then, the current situation is not the first...)
Loretta wasn't the only one who received a handkerchief.
- Pamela.
- Amanda.
- Tiffany.
- Judith.
I also receive it from them.
What it means is...
I have to apply to five women for an engagement.
- That's right.
Would you accept me by saying, "Everybody be my wife"?
That can't be right.
"It's outrageous, it's a man who's not fooled by a woman," he decides to be despised.
(If you hadn't said something extra in public, I'd still be able to handle it...)
Isaac looks at Elias with grudging eyes.
If he hadn't exposed in front of a large crowd that "Isaac had received a handkerchief from Loretta," he would have been able to respond individually.
But because of his exposure, I couldn't take that method anymore.
But it's also cruel to blame Elias.
Where everything was proceeding to its ideal form, it was beaten to its worst demands in a way it would not have assumed at all.
I should have kept the Loretta case a secret, but I was so shocked that I leaked it.
This happened because Isaac said, "Don't hesitate to say it" and really said something like that in public.
"... what's up? Doesn't that mean you didn't know about Princess Anne and Knight White?
There's no way that Isaac doesn't know about Valentine's Day.
But it is also possible that you are too smart to learn the simple things that everyone knows and takes for granted.
- You really don't know?
- Or are you shiitake?
Either that or he was beginning to think.
Elias turns his suspicious attention to Isaac, who is silent.
"No, I knew it"
It might have been safer to excuse "I received it without knowing".
But Isaac got acquainted with it.
Because I thought I was being pushed into distress, I couldn't make a normal decision.
I regret it after I put it into words, but it's too late.
I have had to make excuses from a more unfavourable situation.
"Well. Then why did you receive the handkerchief?
Elias immediately asks.
Even with him, this is where it stands.
If a meritorious minister like Isaac says, "Because I can't hear your orders anymore," his fame as king falls to the earth.
I had to leave the "right to reject orders" as a reward.
So I decided to take Loretta's handkerchief off topic.
Simply because I doubted it, and if it worked, I might be able to make you marry Loretta about the veto.
But this was counterproductive.
Isaac only had a degree of recognition that he was really "glad you were worried".
That's why I easily received a handkerchief from the five of us.
I didn't receive their thoughts responsibly, so I was desperate to get down suddenly and escape the burgeoning responsibility.
That makes it easier to get away with putting the blame on someone.
(... let's implement the plan we were thinking about and figure out how to push the blame while we're talking)
"To explain that, you have to touch on the right to reject the order you just offered as a reward. It'll be a little longer, would you mind?
"... okay. Explain it."
I didn't like to touch the veto, but in this situation I said, "None after all. Let's go to the separate room," I can't say.
Nobles throughout the kingdom are listening to this exchange.
- What did His Majesty do to demand a veto or an apology more than an engagement to Loretta?
Because I realized the possibility that it seemed so.
If you are engaged to Loretta, there is also the possibility that you will be King Fatil in the future.
If you're a normal person, you should choose an engagement.
Asking for a veto until you throw it away means there are so many circumstances.
If I talk in a separate room, they think I "pushed Isaac hard with power," and I'm in a bad position.
Isaac wasn't the only one who suffered from turning the Loretta thing out.
Elias himself had become the feather of suffering with his own far-fetched actions.
"First of all, it was when His Majesty ordered me to deal with the dragon. I said I wasn't sure. But His Highness Jason was told that I could do it, and His Majesty agreed with that opinion. In an April opening ceremony incident, I had permission to refuse His Highness's orders. Yet I told His Majesty, 'You should help your neighbor. Is that even a problem? You can't say no to me if you say so."
Listening to Isaac, Elias realized what he had done.
Although I could say no if it was just Jason's words, I couldn't say no because of my tense self endorsing them.
That's why I've been asking for the veto.
Originally, Isaac could refuse Elias' orders.
You can protest without permission.
The fact that Morgan has protested against Isaac's orders is proof that everyone has the right to be heard.
But Isaac is a young man with unprecedented loyalty among the ministers Elias had.
I guess he didn't even think it was okay to refuse an order from the king, etc.
That's why he made me think, "To refuse an order, you have to get that permission first," Elias thought.
- But Elias was wrong.
Isaac said, "Can't they shake me up anymore? In the first place, because this student life is important, if they let you go on an expedition, you wouldn't be able to take advantage of the confusion Nicole would cause," I just asked for the veto because I was unhappy.
No loyalty to the royal family at all.
"That's when I was ready to die. An unknown opponent, such as a dragon, told me to stand alone. I was so prepared to die that I asked my worried friends about my sister. 'Cunning to death and cooking a running dog' That's about the word that came to my mind. I was wondering if His Majesty was neglected of my existence and tried to be a deceased by the hands of a dragon... I was depressed that I had been made a disposable pawn."
Isaac gives out as consciously as possible a caged voice of sorrow.
That's as far as I can think.
- I bought the sympathy around me and had no choice but to receive a handkerchief.
I was trying to get through this by making him think so.
"That's not true! That's what this country needs. When Jason inherited the trail...... No, if Lord Windsor were to retire, the next Chancellor would have had no choice but to leave it to him. It's not disposable."
Naturally, Elias desperately denies it.
Because he knew that if he disposed of a meritorious minister like Isaac, he would be despised by other nobles.
Who will follow those who dispose of merit?
If they think, "Stand out and you'll be murdered, so let's keep it out of the way," etc., it could lead to the apoptosis of the Reid Kingdom.
Rating could turn from wise king to fool king.
This was not the only thing that could be admitted in silence.
"Perhaps. But I didn't know His Majesty's sincerity. I have had the opportunity to receive a reward from His Majesty before, but I want something that will benefit the Reid Kingdom in the long run and I have never sought a reward for my personal lust. I thought I had devoted myself to the royal family. Yet when I thought I was going to be disposable, I really missed you."
Isaac looks at Loretta.
It's a complete add-on from here.
One mistake is fatal.
I was feeling my chest beating faster and faster.
"At that time, someone was worried about me. I want you to come home safe. I was really glad they asked me to take the handkerchief as an amulet. I couldn't refuse the handkerchief I was offered."
"Then can I answer that feeling?
"No, you can't do that"
Here Isaac ran out of kippers.
"Lisa, Tiffany, Barbara, Camilla, Doris... Guys, can you come out in the center"
Isaac calls about ten names.
Then I called them to the carpet stretching from the door to the throne.
They didn't know why they called in on this occasion, but they honestly came out through people.
He didn't even understand Elias and looked strange.
Only those close to Isaac could understand what this candidate meant.
"Sire, they are my childhood friends. What do you think?
"How about... Doesn't mean it's beautiful or cute.... you mean it's just women?
"Exactly. Speaking of my childhood friends, they were the only ones. Until I was nine, though."
They are the ones who have left Isaac for fear of his actions.
Not only that, but it also includes some reason why they took a distance from Isaac the man because they also have a fiancée.
Since the age of nine, he has been able to have a boyfriend, who was naturally alienated.
"I want to be a fine man like my great-grandfather Jude Welrod. That's what I was thinking. No, I still think so. But there's only one thing you can't do."
Isaac turns his gaze to them.
"When I was a young girl, my only friend was a girl. Because of that, we can no longer think of women as pawns in politics. Of course, one day you may get yourself engaged to a house where you have a daughter and you are likely to live happily ever after. But I can't think like that right now."
Isaac turns to Elias.
The face was serious.
"Seek certain women as rewards for solving dragon problems. That's the same thing that deals with women. I'm not going to ask for an engagement that way. I fear above all that you will be disappointed that 'I didn't think you were like this' after your engagement. If you have a long relationship, like Lisa, and you know each other, you may seek an engagement, but you and His Highness Loretta have only been dating for about six months. No matter how frantic you are, I will not ask you to be engaged to someone who doesn't know each other very well. If you know each other and they want to get married, they want to seek an engagement without taking the form of a reward. I'm not going to ask for a woman as a reward, even if it's something I've learned in my story."
- It was in my own good faith not to ask for Loretta's engagement as a reward.
Isaac made such an excuse.
What Isaac says smells blue.
However, there were times when my childhood friends were only girls, and I could understand how I began to want to respect the feelings of women.
And there's no contradiction with Isaac ever telling me that he wants to marry a woman he likes.
The desire not to seek a woman as a reward (...) was understandable.
But as an area, I didn't want to understand.
"I would like to respect that idea... Then I guess I can't be the predecessor Lord Welrod. Loretta is the perfect match for that. Seeking rewards here isn't a bad thing."
"No, it shouldn't be"
Elias desperately tries to recommend Loretta, but Isaac shakes his neck to the side.
The trick made Elias and Loretta unfortunate.
"It's not Jude Welrod, it's not Marquis Welrod, it's not Viscount Saunders I should be. It has to be Isaac Welrod Enfield. The predecessor Marquis Wellrod is only a goal and I don't think we need to imitate everything. Maybe I'm wrong as a nobleman, but I'm going to make it up to you elsewhere. I will not ask for a woman as a reward. This is why I don't want to be engaged to certain women as a reward."
Isaac himself talking, he doesn't know what he's talking about, but he pushed it off with momentum for now.
After I said it, I thought, "I guess I could have just done it in the second half," but it's the festival after that.
But when I looked at Elias, who didn't even sound like a goo, I could see that it worked at first.
I decided to keep the chase going while I could.
As for Isaac, he needed to blunt his spearhead to himself by making Elias a thorough bad guy.
"I asked for the right of veto, not least because His Majesty could hear His Highness Jason. Your Majesty has forgotten his promise."
"What!?
With further offense, Elias marvels with his eyes round.
Aside from hearing Jason's opinions, he starts to wonder if there was anything else that pissed Isaac off.
"When I was awarded the Duke, Your Majesty granted me permission to 'relieve me of my duty as a nobleman until I turned twenty'. But if you're given an order like that, you're going to have to do your duty. Your Majesty told me to exempt you from your obligations. I refused to give him the title if I knew I would be rebellious."
"Oh, that's..."
This is Elias' fatal mistake.
That's what I told myself to give Isaac the title.
Besides, everyone was listening at the Arbitrage Awards.
"Did I say that?" and I can't even spark it.
Isaac was so user-friendly that he relied on Isaac.
"So you're telling me to overlook the Dwarves in trouble? I ordered you to think you could do something about it."
I realize my mistake, so Elias tries to get off topic.
Isaac shouldn't be able to say "I don't care about Dwarves" either.
There were also plans that if it turned out ok, the damage would be less.
But that's going to dig the grave.
"That's also why I asked for an apology to Lord Welrod. Ambassador Villey's remarks were only to such an extent as consultation. But what His Majesty ordered me to do made it a formal proposal. How about we decide that over the head of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Lord Welrod?
"Ah..."
Elias was noticed making numerous failures in this case.
It would be because the tension raised by the balloon remained intact and the decision was made at the thought of the spot.
"One word. You should have just said one word: 'I will decide after consultation with Lord Welrod'. If you did, Marquis Welrod's face would have been preserved. Marquis Welrod is not talked about his work at the Mansion. Rumors don't even come in that you did something special. But I guess that doesn't mean I didn't do anything. The role of a civilian is to solve the problem before it gets bigger. The lack of prominent work means that it plays a brilliant role without further ado. There's no such thing as being taken lightly."
Isaac sheltered Morgan, citing what he told Norman.
In fact, I haven't heard any rumors that Morgan "did something amazing" or "made a big mistake".
All Isaac knows is that he went to the condolences of Simon, the former king of the Kingdom of Rockwell.
Those things point to solving problems within the scope of everyday work.
There should have been no problem with Morgan's abilities.
Everyone sees Morgan with a sympathetic eye.
And those close to Morgan understood that he did not ask Isaac to apologize for Elias, but did so at Isaac's discretion.
Because even if he was foolish about Isaac, he knew he wasn't foolish about his treatment.
"And there's only me and Viscount Saunders in the Marquis Welrod family with a direct line of men. Marquis Welrod's hard work would have been immeasurable if I had been sent to his place of death. I'm not against helping Dwarf. But if you took the time to consider if there was any way, your impression would have changed dramatically. His Majesty spared only one effort. I would like to apologize to Lord Welrod for that."
"... it was indeed a reckless act. I'm sorry, Lord Welrod. Let Marquis Welrod and Viscount Saunders make a formal apology again at a later date"
Elias also understands the importance of succession.
Shame on the Marquis of Wellrod for having lightly ordered a dangerous mission that is likely to result in the loss of an important legacy.
That's why I honestly apologized to Morgan.
"Please understand that Lord Enfield is a child who is not yet an adult. Married and bequeathed to me."
Morgan was also mean and said, "I will never forgive you! I didn't say," etc.
I'm dissatisfied, but I have to continue to serve Elias, because being mean just makes me worse off.
In the meantime, I'm glad you understand.
But now Isaac wasn't going to end it.
I'm going to blame Elias a little more for his judgment.
(If you don't, I suck)
- By blaming Elias for his judgment, I couldn't help but be careful and receive a handkerchief.
That's what you have to think.
Initially...
"Let's get Elias' right to refuse orders and not let him go away among the students. Let me apologize to your grandfather and let him bear the burden."
- It was only an idea to the extent that
But not now.
Because Elias told me to speak in front of the nobles, I had a situation where I felt my life was in danger.
"Step on my feelings," if one of the five had Yandere, he might stab me to death.
(Judith or something absolutely sucks. He's going to curse me.)
It was Elias who created this situation.
Then we just have to ask him to take responsibility.
Until this time, Isaac had no idea that the royal prestige could be sharpened together as a secondary effect.
That's all I was desperate for.
