No, it's not bad.

The response of the Marquis of Marmont was unexpected.

By the way, seeing how confused we are, the Marquis of Marmont keeps his words scratching his head.

"Oh, how well do you guys know about the Meredith family?"

”-The Meredith family has only Diora's children?”

In fact, Ilias didn't tell me that Diora-san was a child in the side room, or that her right wife was a bit troubled, and she hadn't given up on following her own child yet.

However, I replied modestly that it might not be good to talk to her too much, but Marquis Marmont dared to be suspended and laughed with one cheek.

"You're about to grasp it." I'm sure that his wife left the Viscount's house and his family is strong, but I can't defy that. And Baron Meredith. If this continues, House Meredith will surely fall to the baronet next time - no, considering Diora's treatment, the odds of falling to the knights are higher. "

"Is that because you haven't decided on an inheritance?"

"That's why I didn't contribute to the country, too."

The House of Baron Meredith is a lawless nobleman with no territory.

If so, it is difficult to maintain the title unless you become a bureaucrat and support the country, or work under other territorial nobility to contribute to the country.

But the current Baron Meredith lives on a pension and doesn't seem to have much work to do.

"Diora is good, isn't she? It's easy enough to be a bureaucrat, and if you're the heir to the Merediths, it's considered a sufficient contribution. But thanks to this halfway position, I can't do it."

"... I heard that you can't even get married because of that."

The Marquis of Marmont nods deeply as Hulka leaks his words small.

"Oh, that's unexpected, isn't it? That said, it's hard for them to talk about their other homes - but if you hire Diora, the story will change."

According to the Marquis of Marmont, he is a subordinate to his daughter.

If you're pressing a story that doesn't make sense, there's still nothing wrong with it, even if it means doing something very clear.

"Anyway? It would be a good contribution to help launch the House of the Viscount." The Meredith family can maintain their baronetry even in Diora's generation if they give up their patronage at that time. If you take the story with you, Baron Meredith won't refuse. "

If the Marquis says so, so be it.

As we asked, I would pay at the front gate, but I don't care if it's Marquis Marmont.

She is a person who cannot designate Diora as her successor because of the complexion of her wife's family, the Viscount.

If you can make a point here, it won't be a problem.

"I don't care if it's just you, but it's about my niece, and Viscount Nenus would agree." If I could call out to Sliviya, I wouldn't be able to keep my mouth shut, would I? "

The Marquis, the Count, and the Viscount all stepped on it.

- Isn't that half-exposed already?

Perhaps it will be a return to Diora-san?

"Thank you for taking care of me so much. If so, I would definitely like to ask you..."

“Normally, I think it's a good story. Not only that, of course, but I think it's worth it for you to include Diora."

Although not designated as a heir, Ms. Diora, who has been educated as a trace of the nobility, has enough knowledge to make up for our shortcomings.

In addition, the neighboring Viscount Nenus family is related to him, and is now deputy branch manager of the Adventurer's Guild.

We haven't decided what to do with the dungeon, but Diora's presence with the pipe to the guild will be very reassuring.

If anything, why don't you tell Diora?

"Thank you, but if you ask me, I think we should say it directly..."

Besides, in general, it's a good story, but it's a different matter whether Diora wants it or not.

If she wanted to continue working for the Adventurer's Guild, it would be very difficult for the Marquis of Marmont to say no.

If you do, you'll have to repay your debt with vengeance.

Of course, we should avoid that.

"However, if there is a problem with my parents' home, can you help me at that time?"

Baron Meredith said he might be disturbed by his wife, anyway, and if I asked him to do so, the Marquis of Marmont nodded lightly.

"I don't care, I was going to." I have something else to say...... I don't think so. "

"That means there's only one thing left to do, Father."

Raymond and the Marquis of Marmont looked different at first glance.

But at that time, the smile of both of them was very blood-thirsty.

◇◇◇

The Mansion of the Marquis of Marmont is big enough for Meatier to mistake it for a castle.

In view of its status as a marquis, it is natural in a certain sense, and there is also a splendid training ground in the site, where the conscripts serving the Marmont family are in training.

When we left the room where we met, we were guided to such a training ground.

There were now seven of us, plus four of the Marquis of Marmont, and the Conscripts, who had suspended their training and were watching us.

If this was just a tour, I'd feel comfortable, but naturally it couldn't have been--

Actually, I've been looking forward to the game with Toya.

"Um, are you sure you want to do this? Lady Raymond."

"Whoa, Toya, we're brother-in-laws. I don't mind if you talk to me normally."

"...... then, let's spoil your words."

"Hmm. Then I'll answer the question, 'Are you sure you want to do this?'

Yes. The purpose of my presence here is to put into practice the deal with Toya that Lord Raymond declared at the beginning of the meeting.

On behalf of the other brothers, Master Raymond seemed very enthusiastic.

Even more so, the Marquis of Marmont didn't say anything, and even the Emire, who was coming with me on unexpected occasions, didn't seem to stop.

Master Raymond, are you more motivated than expected?

Hulka secretly said, "Don't you have to stop?” She turned her gaze to Leah, but she sighed as if she had given up somewhere.

"Ah, but you can see it, my brother..." I'm too busy to take the time, but I like swordsmanship itself. "

Is that so?

“Yeah. Except for my father and my mother, I'm the only one in the Marmont family who's been allowed to tell the Sarth Heart story. -That's me now, too."

"Oh, that's right."... that? And Emire-sama? "

Leah nodded at Yuki, who tilted her head unexpectedly.

"Your mother's skill is better than my brother's." I don't think it's going to reach my father..... "

"Is that him? Really? It looks very elegant, though."

Natsuki looked at Emile with a bewildered look on her face, but when she noticed that, Emile only smiled with a gentle smile.

At first glance, it didn't look like I was going to take a sword.

It looks good, but it's my mother, isn't it?

"That's very convincing." So you can't expect me to stop. "

"I know you won't say it, but I think you want to see Toya's skill too."

Oh, that's right.

In the original world, you may care about the education, income, and character of your marriage partner, but in this case, your arm may also be quite important.

If you don't leave the town at all, it won't be that far, but in the case of people who have a certain position like the nobility, the movement from town to town will happen.

Of course, if you were an aristocrat, you would have an escort, but if you had a strong opponent to be a husband, you wouldn't have surpassed it, and it would definitely lead to a sense of security.

”But if you get hurt, isn't that bad?”

Isn't that right? Lord Raymond is the trail of the Marquis.

Even though I was challenged, what would happen if I was seriously injured?

Maybe our marriage to Leah will be a bullshit, and if we don't get along well, we'll be guilty.

Perhaps Toya thought about it, comparing Leah and Raymond as if she were in trouble, but it was Marquis Marmont who slapped him hard on the back.

"Tsubaki's son isn't that weak." I don't care if I die trying to get seriously injured? Huh? "

"Yes, of course." Rather, I want you to show me that much skill. Besides, you guys are good at healing magic. ― ― It's okay to be able to take off your arms and legs, right?

Will it cut or be cut?

With a refreshing smile, she said something outrageous, and Hulka and Natsuki let out a squeaky expression.

"Ahh... I hope you don't want to cut it off..."

"Yes, I haven't had any experience connecting them." At least, even if it's a fracture. "

Hulkas can use [regeneration (regenerate)] even though it is incomplete, and it seems that if there are still cut parts left, they can be connected, but luckily, this has never been necessary.

With that in mind, the two of them answered somewhat modestly, but the Marquis of Marmont laughed happily when he heard of it.

"Oh, if it's a fracture, it's not a problem." You can do whatever you want with this. I'll come back later... "

"No, you can't." When you're done with Raymond, get back to work. I have to go to the capital soon. "

With a smile on his face, the Marquis of Marmont sighed unfortunately, stuck to the words of Emile, who felt the unexpected force of the presence or absence.

"Guu... hah, I can't help it." Toya, the sword is over there. Use whatever you like. Then, if you're injured beyond your control, I'll call a healer. Toya, can we have a safe exchange too? "

"... I understand."

The Marquis of Marmont pointed to the corner of the training ground.

There was a box full of training swords.

Toya took some of them and shook them several times. She chose one of them and stepped into the training ground with it in her hand.

On the other hand, Master Raymond took the sword that one of the soldiers had brought and confronted Toya with one hand as if hanging it on his right side.

Well then, let's do it, Toya.
