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

"... by the way, do you have a girlfriend or a woman close to you?

Laurenz didn't know what my father meant by his words, and he was often frightened.

I couldn't understand why my father would be interested in my own women's relationship when I should have told a very important story earlier on.

And I also subtly didn't like the fact that he looked a little red and didn't try to gaze at me, whether it was awkward or embarrassing to talk to my son like that.

"Yes, no, even if you have friends, no one special close to you...... What's wrong with that?

"Just like your friend Lord Jared did, we need to talk to you."

"... no way"

The question arises as to why. I can't help it. I'm only a pupil.

I don't have a Duke's fiancée, I'm not a privileged student at school. I'm only a mediocre person everywhere - and Laurenz himself thinks.

"Why?

"That, of course, is because you were recommended by the court magician"

That's what they said, and I got a point. Laurenz himself was too sudden to realise it, but from the surroundings it is promising in the future that the court magician named him, even if he kicked the story, too much to tie the edge.

"... I see this is how Jared feels"

In retrospect, the emotions I was pointing at Jared, who had just become a candidate for court magician myself, were probably the same as the ones my surroundings are pointing at me right now.

"In Lord Jared's case, the timing was also bad. Shortly after Lord Olivier and I talked about our engagement. Whatever questioned its strength would have been good. But he silenced the question with numerous merits"

I know that very well, too, Laurenz. Jared's prowess and suspicion that he might have used Conne in one of Barnabas Kaif's murders, especially the candidate for court magician, should have completely disappeared.

"I guess the status of court magician just seems savoury to those who join the sorcerer or not. No, you're not, it actually tastes good. There are twelve mighty men in the land, and they shall be given titles. Every house should want to have an edge, even if I give it to my daughter."

As a matter of fact, Laurenz is a promising stock as his future opponent.

He is the eldest son of the Earl's family and is recommended by the court magician. That alone would make the aristocrats, as well as the leading merchants, want to connect the edges. In addition, the absence of a specific fiancée is significant.

He has a fiancée, like a friend of his, and even in a situation where the woman is rejecting the side room, the conversation doesn't follow. It was also impossible for Laurenz, who had no troublesome elements, to have a conversation with us at the moment.

The contact is a woman who is late going, starting with Laurenz and an acquaintance. If it's terrible, it's wide ranging from young children who haven't even been girls yet, to divorced women back.

There is also a mix of offers that we don't think about at all, such as compatibility between us or whether or not we like our daughter, and it goes without saying that Kendrick held his head without his son's knowledge.

"I'm only sixteen. I can't even think about getting married without being an adult."

"That being said, if at least I didn't have a fiancée like Lord Jared, I wouldn't have a future offer of friendship. There are people who try to get close to you and smoke sweet juice, and there are people who think it's nice to get close to you."

"That may be, but I still think it's early"

"As a father, I do think it may be too early, but as the same man, I guess it doesn't mean it's too early, because if you're going to be a court magician, you'll be able to feed your family enough"

Kendrick's right, if you're going to get a court magician, you're just as likely to get a job. I can get steady pay. Even if I get a wife, I can feed her, and even if I have a child, I can afford enough.

Even if you don't get the title as a court magician, Laurenz is the heir to the Herring family. Again, there's no problem getting married.

Indeed, it's not like I don't know the opinion that I'm still underage and in too much of a hurry. From a son who is a student and lives under the care of his parents, I wonder how bright the future will not be to be so accepted.

It's like a dream for Laurenz to just be recommended by a court magician in the first place, and he's still in an incredible state. There, I was honest that I couldn't keep up with my thoughts, even if they told me that I was expecting the future and talking about friendship, etc.

"I know you're confused, too, but just like with the court magician thing, think more about the fringe. We'll get you the details later."

"Wow, I get it. I'll try."

I don't like marriages I don't want. I'm also sorry they forced me to marry them.

I guess I'll have to choose a partner in my life one way or another, but I don't think that's the time yet.

Laurenz floats about his best friend in the back of his brain.

When it was not yet a relationship that I could call Jared and my best friend, I suspected and argued that my fiancée Olivier had helped behind him as a candidate for court magician.

One of his buddies peddled rumors about Olivier and told Jared that he was seriously furious.

I became close to that, and now I'm also close to meeting Olivier. Even from Laurenz's point of view, they seem sympathetic.

My best friend and his fiancée are so close that they even mistake me for thinking of each other all the time from an early age.

- Can you seriously think of someone, like Jared and the others?

If we are going to marry, I want to accompany a woman who I can love wholeheartedly. I think so. It was Laurenz.
