This Time, I Became the Fiance of a Duke’s Daughter. But She is Rumored to have Bad Personality, and Ten Years Older

Having had a doggedly tired day, Jared was exhausted on his own couch when he returned from school.

I don't look a little sloppy on a sofa that sits comfortably and rolls over without taking off my boots.

Even though it's a separate residence in the Duke's house, Jared was so tired that he couldn't afford to care less about that.

I don't mind seeing the Duke because I'm not particularly tired and I'm interested in being the same magician when it comes to the Konrat that serves Olivier's brother. I don't think the Duke, who cares about Olivier and Hannellone, is going to introduce us to someone who would be harmful to both of us, but he's decided to ask Olivier just in case.

But more than anything else, it was the appearance of Emilia Alway who got tired.

I guess Olivier has something to think about. Suddenly I wondered if he showed up, at the end of the day he said, "Wouldn't you be my fiancée, etc.," and the story flowed because the Duke was angry at me, but it makes me feel weird to think I might see him at school in the future.

The Duke had not noticed, but Emilia had been asking what was going on from inside the mansion, even when Jared was leaving the mansion behind.

Exactly. I can't tell Olivier about Emilia.

At least, I'm going to leave Jared alone until it becomes a problem he can't solve. Honestly, I don't like people who don't know what they're thinking in their chests like Emilia.

So did Olivier, whom we had just met, but she was easy to understand her personality if she spoke a little with her. But Emilia isn't. We had a little conversation, but didn't show our true nature.

Nothing, like Olivier, I don't think there's anything you can't get close to without checking your personality out of the fear you're after. I didn't feel that kind of vigilance from Emilia. I just didn't want to get any closer to you than I thought Emilia was a troublesome opponent for Jared.

In the first place, I was not going to go ahead and imitate anything to do with Olivier because I would definitely be unfriendly with him, and I shouldn't have wanted to let him near me from the Duke's attitude.

I chase Emilia out of my mind just because I don't want to think about it anymore if I decide so.

I don't have any plans for tomorrow in particular, so you might want to send a letter to the Duke to see him later. Whether he has qualities as a magician or not, judgment is better fast.

"Jared, are you coming in?

Thinking, as I was getting a little sleepy and bit the yawn to death, Olivier came into the room.

Teapots and cups are available in her hands.

Olivier lifted his brow as he found Jared lying on the couch.

"I have time for dinner, so even a little tea - before you do, grab your feet off the couch. It's not sloppy. If you're sleepy, go to bed."

"When I get into bed, I think I'll sleep through the morning"

"Then I won't wake up with a cup of tea. I need to talk to you a little bit."

Jared getting up off the couch. I wanted to ask Olivier about Konrat, so I was just fine.

"Sorry to bother you with your tea"

"It's okay. I can do it any time you want."

That's right, he smiles, but noble ladies don't usually support their tea.

Olivier's attitude is impressive, with Trane bearing the chores, but still trying to do what he can.

Drinking the tea she made me smelled and tasted different from what Trane put in.

"This tea is my favorite. I like the calming scent."

Certainly a sweet fragrance like fruit calms my heart. Tea is also sweet without having to add sugar, and the flavor is firm. I don't have much habit either, so it's easy to drink.

Drinking tea without conversation, Olivier and I had eyes.

"If you need to talk, go ahead."

"Yeah, thanks. You met your father today, didn't you? I'm sorry to call so suddenly early in the morning."

"I don't mind. It wasn't my fault."

"I wonder what that means?

I guess Olivier cares what Jared talked about when he met with the Duke of Alway.

I think that's why he even brought me tea.

But that's exactly - I was worried about the reply to the letter to you, and I can't even say it.

"Pfile - the other day, it's about the Raiders."

"I've been listening a little bit, too. You don't talk about anything, you don't eat or drink."

"I'm also worried about the debilitation, but I'm anxious the masterminds who asked him to try to make Pfile a deceased. Of course, we may not be able to do anything bad because we have security, but in case another new assassin shows up from Vault Toyfer, the story will change."

"Right... but my father should be moving too just in case"

And just in case you care all about it, I can't help it.

Unlike Olivier, Jared has an optimistic side, so I don't want to go right to left with something that hasn't even happened. I never tried to be vigilant, but I think I'm sorry that I have to be constantly driven by anxiety.

"Of course it is. However, I didn't think the situation would change, so I decided to meet with Pfile."

"- Seriously?"

"Of course it is. I talked to the Duke, and Pfile lives within the rules of Vault Toyfer of following the strong. That's why, in any way, if I fought and won, I'd be able to talk."

"Is there no danger?

"I don't know. But if you talk to Pfile and find out who made the request from inside the Duke's side room, Olivier and Hannellone can live in peace."

I'm already ready for danger. But I also don't think Pfile is going to go to Jared right now. If you were going to resist, you wouldn't have passed on the client's information, and you wouldn't have told me to kill him.

Sweet as it may be, Jared wanted to think positively.

But Olivier's expression is not excellent.

"Again, you are in danger because of us... your father and I rely on you all the time. I'm really gonna hate this, I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize. Even I sincerely want Olivier and Hannellone and Trane to live in peace. So let's make solving the problem a priority now."

"... thanks"

Olivier, with tears, wipes his eyes with a handkerchief. Jared pretended not to notice her tears and drank up tea.

"I don't know, you've always helped me. Is there anything I can do?

"Well, there's one thing I'd like you to tell me."

"Tell me."

"Can you tell me about Mr. Konrat Alway?

"What the..."

The moment I ask the question, Olivier's expression is stained with anger.

I have to get tired of watching because I am a person who often changes his expression. I wait for Olivier's words as he escapes reality.

"Yeah, you know what? Your father is leaving Konrat to Jared."

"Oliver?

"You, do you know what this means? Konrat is the only surviving candidate in the Duke of Alway's house with magic!

"Yeah, so he wants you to see if the Duke has talent as a magician"

"That's all?"

"Well, if he's talented and I like him, he wants you to take care of him."

"Look! You're about to be taken in by your father!

What more, Jared desperately endured to speak.

At the point where we live together as Olivier's fiancée, the surroundings will see us as magicians already involved in the Duke of Alway family. Even more so if you get married.

One of the things about Konrat is Jared's desire as a father to simply give magical children a place to learn.

There will be no lack of talent. I also have a mage in the Duke's house, so I should be able to tell if I can do it as a mage. And I expect you won't mind seeing that - the less talented you have a magician to teach.

That's what Jared thought, so he decided to get interested in seeing Konrat.

However,

"Okay? I feel sorry for Konrat, but I don't need to listen to your father!

Apparently, your fiancée didn't mind.
