Cleman, of course, stopped my suggestion.

Of course, the proposal itself did not clap, but there was more concern for me than that.

It is a concern to me, the Duchess, that I would not have been able to bear it, be it a very, but small, village inspection.

Indeed, it is a natural story because it is his feeling that I will be a boxed daughter who has hardly ever been to the countryside or anything else in my life from when I am at home until I come here to marry her and live as a Duchess.

And in my experience at twenty, that was certainly true.

But I have a lot of old experience right now.

Especially at the end of the previous time... when the evils of the Duke of Farrence house were being uncovered and hunted down, that would be a much better life for wealthy peasants.

I've even had the countryside hide away to escape the chase.

So rural was quite familiar to me today, rather even a place where I felt intimate.

Of course, I told him more of a story that would convince him, because he couldn't possibly understand where he told Cleman about such circumstances.

I mean, my abilities would have helped Cleman.

I have enough power to help Cleman, a lord in clerical work.

And you can see things with the same gaze as Cleman.

It should help Cleman to rule that I look around the villages where some sort of anomaly seems to be happening. That's the story.

In the first place, Cleman himself must devote much time to what is naturally demanded of him as a noble nobleman, such as doing much work in the Mansion and, if not, going to the King's Capital to interact with the people of the Royal Palace.

For this reason, it is not so easy to twist the time to look directly around the territory, but frequently.

But I don't know if it's me.

I also, as the wife of the Duke's family, work occurs such as throwing tea parties and parties.

But now the child is not yet born, and again the child himself is small.

There is a thankful culture in this country that you don't have to host tea parties, parties, etc. at that time of year and avoid inviting other ladies.

I mean, I'm a lot easier to twist time than Cleman.

Technically, I can't even say that I'm not too busy because I also spend more time with Sieghardt than my normal lady.

But in the course of ten days, I can go as far away as I want to leave the mansion for a couple of days.

No, it's enough to be longer if you care about it, this is a one-off guide I set up for though I want to be with Sieghardt.

And in that case, the little Sieghardt will still be left in the mansion, but there are plenty of servants in the mansion who are accustomed enough to take care of their children, and they don't need to worry about anything to leave it to them.

Normally, I should be a little more anxious because I also have to consider the dangers of assassination and other things, such as taking care of the Duke's inheritance, but in my case, I know who of our servants can be trusted because they have all been through this once.

The servants who asked to take care of Sieghardt, starting with Amalia, are left only to those who shared their destiny with us until the end.

You can say there is no danger of assassination.

Still, I can't say zero worries, so they also have a defensive magic guide in place... but they probably won't turn up.

That's why Cleman eventually admitted to me about my departure.

◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆

"... ma'am. Isn't it hard?

That's what an old servant sitting in the seat in front of me asks me in a rattled and rocking carriage.

His name is Walter.

Until a few years ago, he was a family order of the Duke of Farrence family, but he ceded his duties to his son Ort, and he hid himself with the permission of Clément.

However, when situations like this one are particularly busy, they are rarely driven out by clemans and orthos asking for detailed help.

I don't know if that's okay with you saying that you've hidden, but as a person, it seems fine because sometimes going to work this way can also be a good penny.

Plus, that's what I've known about Cleman since he was a baby, and he's also looking forward to seeing how it works.

It's just...

"It's okay. But I'm sorry about that. I let you do this kind of work on purpose when you're in hiding... you'll want to work on my husband's side or on Orto's side"

That's right.

Right now, Walter is in the carriage with me.

The rural lookout I suggested to Clemann, to the carriage running for it.

In other words, Walter was attached to me this time.

Speaking of hiding, I was a little sorry to put him on a journey that would only be seen as the Duchess' docile act, having worked up to the family decree.

But Walter moves his beard well, smiles and says.

"No, it's outrageous. It is rather an honor for me to accompany your wife on her journey in this way. In the first place, you won't need my help or anything anymore, and so will the ortho. Your wife would be disturbing such an old man..."

"No. That's not true. Walter, you are a very good and experienced butler. I'm so comfortable with you. I asked my husband, and he told me that witchcraft and martial arts arms are pretty good too, and he'd rather have someone like that extra around this time. But you can't take personnel away from the Knights..."

"Hmm. There's a demon appearing in the villages, that's the story... it's just not up for reporting clearly,"

"Because Cleman and I only guessed from the numbers and the statements in the remarks section. That's why I need to go see her straight once. Just..."

"I understand. If that's the case, we need a speedy resolution. But there's no way your wife can handle it. That's where I come in."

To Walter, who tells me so, I still feel that you are the one who has worked the Duke's house slaughter for many years.

It's just a little different from my thoughts as far as I'm concerned...... I can't speak clearly about it, and I nod vaguely,

"... Yep. It would help if you did."

I answered that.

Actually, I'm going to deal with the demons too...

Well, I'll stop explaining any further if I can pack it up later about the area.

It's time to get to the village.

The voice of the one who was moving the carriage sounds.

Apparently the destination is close.
