"The curse placed on our house is that when we act without reward, we are rampaged without sight. You must ask for a reward for anything trivial. It was such a pain in the ass."
It was a hard past just to remember, but Matt speaks quietly.
"The cause was the killing of the elves in the inter-ethnic war. My ancestors were cursed when they killed the elves. It's not just about the person who killed him, it's about being passed down to his offspring. My ancestors, cursed, moved away from the Baron Mosley family and began to live as mercenaries. The reason is simple. Because I have no problem living the way I want to be rewarded for everything. For 200 years now, mercenaries have been in business for generations."
"... is that what it takes for all the kids?
Janet asks Matt questions.
If I decided to marry him, I'd have to ask him about the kids.
Matt closed his eyes to remember the past.
"It doesn't take all the kids. It's just unfortunate."
"What do you mean?
"Basically, the Lord is cursed. A child can have a normal life until the cursed parent dies...... My father was a mercenary. In that case..."
"One day suddenly you die in battle...," you mean?
"Exactly."
Matt exhales a deep sigh.
"I was cursed when I was fourteen. My father, who was on the battlefield, must have died. After dinner, my mother asked me to clean up the dishes and I..., if I noticed, was killing my mother and my brother"
"Huh!?
Those who were listening are breathtaking.
It's a horrible thing to be angry about cleaning up dishes and killing people inside you.
It was a curse so strong that it was easier to understand than any more.
"Fortunately, no arrangements were made. Guards don't care about the deaths of families of mercenaries who don't settle and keep moving in search of battlefields. All I could think of was a dead man caught up in a mercenary mess."
Mercenaries are treasured on the battlefield, but they are troublemakers when the war is over.
I'm only a blind stranger who doesn't know when to commit a robbery or other crime.
I don't like to get more jobs because it's not the damage of my own people, and I guess I couldn't properly look into it.
I don't know if that was lucky.
"After I mourned my family, I also thought about suicide. But......, I didn't die. I was afraid to die myself. He then became a mercenary, seeking a place to die on the battlefield. Cut first into the enemy formation before anyone else and last but not least after the battlefield. Still didn't die. I thought it might be a real curse not to die."
(That would be because it was set to survive to appear in the original game.... this is also a curse in a way)
Isaac thought so.
- I survived on the battlefield to appear as a sub-offensive character.
- To meet Nicole, to be decursed and distracted.
This is not what Matt wanted.
It's just like a curse because it was kept alive just for that matter.
"It's been about ten years since I became a mercenary. He shrugged when I tried to stab a stop at a fellow mercenary who was fatally wounded. 'I wanted to see my hometown again before I died,' he said. At that time, I said, 'What is home (...) so good?' I thought. Because I had fallen apart from my residence, so there was no place I could call home. So I decided to take a vacation and look into my roots and head to the Reid Kingdom."
Here Matt opens his eyes and sees Viscount Wellington.
"When I was staying in Wang Capital, many people invited me as a servant. But I didn't come to the Reid kingdom in search of a servant. I thought I was sorry, but I turned down all the stories."
"I was even turned down by Lord Wallick and Lord Wilmente. There's nothing to include when my invitation is turned down."
Matt also declined Viscount Wellington's invitation.
The matter was more topical now because Viscount Fosbury had said it earlier.
Except between us, there's nothing in particular to feel.
"When the commissioner's invitation settled, Lord Enfield called."
For that matter, the subject of Isaac builds everyone's interest.
Amanda and others were about to embark on a big one.
"If it's an invitation from Marquis Welrod, I know. Even an invitation from Viscount Saunders as a successor can tell. But I still didn't see why my child Lord Enfield would try to make me serve. But I saw what I did when I met him, and I knew right away. This man met me knowing about the curse. 'Consideration by a multilateral perspective and assumption of events that may occur. I still remember clearly the phrase' after thinking hypothetically that you are cursed '."
"Ho."
- Isaac never met anyone.
- It was also discerning the invisible thing called a curse (...).
Not at the level of superior ability to spot.
It's a level that goes beyond theory and can be described as a paranormal idea.
It was another reminder of Isaac's anomaly for those who were present here.
Only Isaac was upset by the backwardness with which he knew the answer.
"At that time, Lady Claude and Lady Bridget were both present. Lord Enfield called me beforehand, wondering if he could break my curse. I haven't even seen you. It's to break my curse. How far ahead we can look and how far we can move for people...... I can't measure the size of the vessel."
"Isn't that all you wanted to be a minister?
Anne throws a simple question.
In contrast, Matt smiles mocking himself.
"No, Lord Enfield did not ask me to work under him. If it's true, you should have offered it from me then. But I tried to do something I had never been able to do because I felt free from the curse. That was the orphanage. Lord Enfield only says, 'We just need your help in case of trouble'. In return for my help, I wasn't told to work."
When Matt denied Ann's idea, she was in a hurry.
Apologize immediately to Isaac.
"Oh my God... I'm sorry. I didn't think Lord Enfield was greedy."
"No offense. I know it's a statement. Normally, you should think about ministering Matt. Especially if you felt the war was close."
"Yep. If I were you, I would have said you wanted me to be a clerk. With peaceful times going on, experienced mercenaries should have definitely wanted"
It was four years ago that Matt visited the King's Capital.
The following year, there was a war with the Kingdom of Rockwell.
Besides, Isaac was predicting a war.
Normally, one experienced soldier like Matt would want more.
But Isaac didn't want it.
The matter was a common question not only for Ann, but for everyone.
(You can't say 'Kill for me from now on' to someone who's happy that you can make amends for killing people. If I could do that, I'd be engaged to Amanda a long time ago and make her a stepping stone)
The answer to that question was even simple.
- Isaac just couldn't be ruthless.
But those who did not know that felt that Isaac had a different idea.
"Then why didn't you minister?
Amanda speaks for everyone's feelings.
"You can't stand in the way of people who regret hurting people and want to live without hurting them from now on. I've had a lot to regret."
Isaac answers with a slight grin, feeling lonely who can't tell the truth.
The grieving grin made Amanda's chest pound.
"You don't care about me. It's about Matt now. Come on, keep going."
I noticed Amanda's eyes staring at herself jizzily, and Isaac became uncomfortable.
I'll get right back to it and try to turn everyone's gaze to Matt.
Matt also looked impressed, but Isaac told me, so I try to get back on my mind and keep talking.
"You know the rest. Attempts to create an orphanage were blocked by the law and the merchants who kept the gold were taken away with all their property. It is Lord Enfield who picked me up like that. I've given you two chances to start over in your life. This is why we cannot take precedence over Lord Enfield, even if we are living together."
Matt ran out of grandeur.
Viscount Wellington, who has listened so much so far, is shaking his body.
(I knew I was cursed, so I just tried to see if I could handle the elf magic. But if I made it Matt, it was a serious incident that changed my life. I knew I was grateful.... but I didn't know it was anything strong so far)
Janet just got dumped by Damien.
Although I'm willing to take care of my daughter, I wouldn't leave it with a man that there's something else to prioritize.
Isaac realized the failure.
"Wouldn't that be nice?"
"What?"
Viscount Wellington takes off his hand, which has always covered his mouth.
He was smiling.
"If that's all I owe you, it's natural to devote myself to Lord Enfield. Janet grew up beautifully, although she also had the eyes of her parents. There is also the added value of Amanda-like childhood training. But a man who doesn't even look at such things and just pierces loyalty. This is what a samurai has to do. Instead, it's that I can leave Janet at ease because he's a man with one of these cores through him. Robert, you brought a good man."
"Don't you? When I talked to Baron Kirby, I thought you'd like it."
Viscount Wellington gives a satisfied look and speaks to Viscount Fosbury.
Viscount Fosbury was relieved that his friend had reacted well and had the same look he had accomplished.
And Isaac couldn't help but understand what was happening in front of him, and he said, "Why is that?," he thought desperately as he drank his tea.
(You, you're serious!... Oh, speaking of which, did you become friends with Viscount Fosbury on purpose? Whether it's good or bad, you might like a man who doesn't brace.... Are you okay? Matt's gonna brake a lot)
Matt now seems to have been the middle type to Viscount Wellington's taste.
Between after the curse was broken and solving one of the orphanage cases, however, Matt's way of life was heavily braced.
So much so that Isaac doesn't pull it off.
If that's what Matt is supposed to be, I might give him a rundown someday.
(... I can't even talk about people. I don't know when I'm going to run out. I can't worry that much. We'll just have to get a couple to do something about it)
But Isaac stopped worrying immediately.
I can't worry about people about this.
Positions go hand in hand, and I'm in a more dangerous state.
Besides, the matchmaker's entourage doesn't mean anything bad.
Now I decided to keep my mouth shut in hopes that the conversation would go well.
"Janet, these guys can count on you. At least, if you get engaged, you'll be in one piece. So did Robert. I lose my eyes to other women. Men like Baron Kirby aren't."
Viscount Wellington pushes Matt hard on Janet.
But Janet's expression was not excellent.
"Right. But..."
I guess there's something I think about becoming her.
Unlike Viscount Wellington, he didn't seem to like it in one shot.
Show your reluctance to engage Matt.
(Forced is not good. But Janet would likely support Matt's personal life, and you just want to support him)
Isaac tries to move.
But Matt moved before he moved.
"Mr. Janet, I understand your reluctance to engage me. As a matter of fact, I didn't want to marry my noble daughter either."
"Wait a minute!
Isaac tries to stop Matt from talking about the bomb.
Because it was a good vibe, but I tried to smash it at the end.
But Matt says, "Let me tell you," and shows his willingness not to stop.
"I saw them at the party venue, but noble women were just people who wished they were beautiful. Of course, I don't hate beautiful women any more than I am a man either. But some of it will be because I was a civilian, but when I get home, I want to eat handicrafts from a woman who will be my wife, not a servant. I don't want a wife who sharpens her beauty and just gets interested in chatting with friends. I want to be a couple who can support each other."
He began to convey his feelings.
The content is not a bad one, so neither did Isaac try to stop it anymore.
"From your point of view, I'm an odyssand, right? I know what it's like to hate it. But I'm positively thinking about getting engaged to you now. It's not because you're a young, beautiful daughter, or because you want to have a relationship with the Marquis Wallick or Viscount Wellington families. It's you, Mr. Janet."
"What does that mean?"
I'm surprised Janet opened her eyes.
She had no contact with Matt, so she didn't know why she was so interested.
But the truth is, there was.
Big contact.
"It was about two years ago. When Lord Enfield was walking around the city, he was meeting and talking to Mr. Janet, wasn't he?
"Yeah, I think that happened."
"I was there as an escort, too. I didn't mean eavesdropping, but I heard what the story was about. That's when I thought. Oh, the nobleman has such a charming daughter, too."
"In conversation then?!?
Janet blacks and whites her eyes into a sudden confession.
Because what I talked to Isaac about wasn't a glossy story, it was a wild one.
"That's right. The way I work for my future husband was very fascinating. If you're a civilian daughter, it's natural. But it is unacceptable for me to marry a civilian daughter who had already earned the title. At least I can't do it to my real wife. I had to choose between my noble daughters."
"There are many like me. Rather, it allows most female students to do their chores in general"
"Maybe it is. However, the woman to whom I am referred had no one to do the chores"
"... would prove that you were in that position."
That's what Janet replied when she heard about the person Matt would be introduced to.
Near Isaac's side, he is also one of the heroes with a major pattern.
It's natural to be introduced to someone who doesn't have to think about the possibility of doing chores with their own hands.
Matt, say the barons, were in more position than the Viscounts around.
I also hear rumors that Isaac likes to pay, so it wasn't strange that he was conceived of as a premise of a life where he used a servant on the person who introduced him.
"That's why we don't want to miss this opportunity. It's also on the edge of something that we're supposed to make a pageant like this. I want you to make a relationship with me on the assumption that you will marry me."
To Matt's confession, Janet blushed and nagged.
I had a fiancée named Damien, so I'd never been confessed to the opposite sex like this.
I don't know what to do, I have trouble reacting.
Seeing my parents and Amanda for help.
"No man is better. If you don't answer, I'll answer."
"You should tell them yourself when you're like this."
The Viscounts of Wellington push Janet's back.
"He seems like a good guy... Given one of the orphanages, I guess I'd be anxious to keep Janet. Yeah, but maybe I just need Janet to support me in my personal life."
Amanda was troubled.
When I think about Janet, I want to be sure she's a reassuring person before I support her.
But it's a waste of time to miss this opportunity.
It was difficult to give an answer right away.
"Lady."
The secretary of the Marquis Wallick raised his voice.
I guess I have a suggestion.
"What?"
Amanda gives permission to speak.
Whatever, so if you have an opinion that will allow you to judge, I wanted to hear it.
"A formal engagement with Baron Kirby is pending until the end of the first semester. In the meantime, how about deeper interaction? Because of the circumstances surrounding this situation, it seems appropriate to give Janet time to think calmly."
Apparently he wants to say he should take safety measures.
By the time I graduate, I still have time.
There is no need to rush "on this occasion now" because it was originally a condition of "finding a replacement during the first semester".
Especially on Janet's side.
Matt is looking for Janet, so he should be waiting for a semester or so.
"Right..."
Amanda looks at Janet.
Janet was looking at Amanda like she was begging for help.
I'm usually strong, but I seem to be feeling weak about these stories.
"Hmm. But yeah, maybe it's a one-sided opinion, but it's also pretty hard to be waited for. Whether it's a good answer or a bad answer, you might want some predictable answers."
- But Amanda said something that would push Janet away.
Janet is surprised that she was "betrayed," but realizes Amanda's gaze was directed at Isaac and finds out she wasn't betrayed.
Amanda was just taking this opportunity to say "I want answers" to Isaac.
The fact that Janet's story seemed to come together well and that I saw Isaac's worried expression earlier had made my feelings uncontrollable.
Isaac hangs on to this.
Because I didn't think spearheads would be right for me in this place.
"No, you should put some time aside for the answer. You should avoid things like moving with temporary emotions and regretting it later. Baron Kirby may also think of Mr. Janet as' different than he thought '. Mr. Janet may also think of Baron Kirby as' I can't have an uncle who smells like aging '. During the first semester it shall be a period of getting to know each other, during which time Viscount Fosbury will continue to look for other candidates just in case. Wouldn't that be enough? You don't like each other being hard goodbyes again, do you?
Isaac rushes to interrogate Amanda.
Safety measures are effective for people who have been caught badly.
Add your opinion to the proposal the secretary said.
This makes it even easier to accept opinions.
"Mmm, Baron Kirby is a good opponent...... As Lord Enfield said, no rush. This is what happened because we were engaged before the child was born. I'm also in favour of having time to get to know each other. But I'd like you to make sure Baron Kirby doesn't introduce me to other women."
Viscount Wellington showed an understanding of putting aside time.
If it's going to be like Damian again, there's nothing like spending a little time on it.
"Of course it is. That's all I cared about Janet, so I won't let you look away. Don't worry about that."
"Then this one is fine. Let me trust Lord Enfield."
I guess I don't say "believe in Viscount Fosbury" because there was still something about Damien.
Viscount Fosbury, ashamed of Damian's education, could not say anything back.
"... does it smell like aging, etc?
Matt cares and sniffs his own body, but he doesn't know the smell himself.
He looked anxious to Isaac.
"It's okay, it's okay. Because it's just one example. But you need to be familiar."
"Yeah, I'll try to be careful"
If there's a problem, it's the age difference, not the age smell.
The key is whether or not there is enough appeal to fill the area.
I just prayed to Janet that she would make some compromise as she went out with Matt.
