Virtuous Old Man, SSS-Rank is Confirmed in Your Next Life

Courtyard of the Royal Palace.

I made people pay. So I was alone with Eliza.

Eliza walking ahead of me.

Emperor Clothing (,) - Put together the Emperor's costume. She unleashes an unimaginable majesty from her real age.

A girl who was born as much as possible as an emperor.

Making her think so, Eliza stopped in front of the flowerbed and turned to me.

"I want to stabilise and rule the Empire for a long time."

Eliza's tone, which began with that cut out, was serious in itself.

"Create a stable world, based on the imperial stalks that the predecessors rocked. That's what I want to do."

"Yeah, I think we should"

"What do you think is most important for that?

"... I don't know"

It's as many questions as you can answer if you want to, but the only correct answer is in Eliza.

I threw back the question that had been thrown.

"Abdominal heart, right arm, scalpel. Making the equivalent human longer. You familiar with history?

"... yeah, it seems like changing the prime minister often makes the political situation harder"

Memories of a previous life, and studies since I had the stone of a wise man in my hand.

Those knowledge prompted me to answer Eliza's question.

"Yes, that's why I want someone to stay long. Someone who seems to live longer than me, smarter and has better roots"

"So you made me vice emperor."

Eliza nodded clearly.

I see, then I understand.

But is that really okay? Will I have a vice emperor...

"And. If you're dealing with a vice emperor, you can marry him."

"Huh? Did I just say something?

Eliza crushed something while I was thinking about the heavy responsibilities that would be imposed on the vice emperor.

I heard it back.

"Hey, it's nothing! Just talking to myself."

Eliza blushed and deceived.

I can't help it if I'm talking to myself.

"Well, more than that."

Eliza regained her mind with a gophone, and a cough, and looked at me with the same, serious eyes as just now.

"Can you help me?

"Am I okay?

"I want you. You're the only one - in a double sense."

I don't know what you said at the end, my voice was so low I couldn't hear you, but still.

The strong will of Eliza that you are the only one has come to pass.

"Yeah, okay"

"Thanks"

Eliza smiled.

He is an emperor and a girl of his age.

Both, I laughed with that look.

That was so fascinating and smiling enough to make her want to cooperate.

"Oh! You're home, brother-in-law."

When I broke up with Eliza and came back to Hawthorne's mansion, people were in and out of there very intensely and the servants and maids were in a terrible mood.

"Dear Hawthorne, is something wrong?

"That's a gift."

"A gift?"

"Oh, it's all a gift for my brother-in-law"

"... I see what the vice emperor is doing in office"

Think about it for a second, I see the situation.

Humans suddenly have more friends and relatives when they win or emerge from the lottery.

It's the same as that, but if you're just a deputy emperor, you can't come right away, so you're starting with a gift to get in a good mood.

"And that's amazing."

"Oh, look at this. Look at this."

"What is this mountain of seals - an invitation to attend a party?

I took one of the envelopes and looked at the contents.

That's a party invitation written in proper letters on a decent piece of paper.

Formal documents and invitations are rude if they are not beautiful letters.

Beautiful writing is the only technology that makes it gold.

Such a beautiful letter, I think it's enough to feed a family of ten people without difficulty.

Naturally easy to read, I read the invitation with Horsen.

"By chance, you must come because I'm going to partay."

I see it's a coincidence.

I normally know there's no reason for that.

There can be no such coincidence at this time.

Definitely something that opens up because you want to invite the vice emperor (me).

"And that's a lot, how much?

"I didn't count ahead from 1000!

"Yes!?

Big Horsen.

I asked because there are a hundred envelope piles, but they far exceeded expectations.

You mean some things don't belong here?

"And then these things came along."

That's what I call it, Horsen.

Another maid brings a heap of seals as well.

"What's this?

"It's a pageant. I'd like to introduce my brother-in-law to my wife."

"I see, this one's pretty straightforward. And that's a lot."

"I didn't count ahead from 1000!

"Not so much! I can't, not so much. Your wife!

I'm noble, and sometimes I need a side room or something because I became a deputy emperor.

Among the aristocrats, the better the side chambers can be managed, the more they are evaluated.

For my sweet Ange, I thought that was some of those things in the future - but I can't do this.

I can't have so many!

"Really? I think I can afford my brother-in-law."

"Yes!? What the hell is that buyout?"

"By the way, Carlisle used to say, 'I'm trying to revive my first night's tax for Alec'. The whole people are practically stepbrother's daughter-in-law."

"What are you up to, Father!?

First night taxes, by the way, are something that some aristocrats still do, although not Carlisle family territory, either literally give a woman her first night or pay a substitute amount of taxes.

"Ma'am, the numbers are reasonable, but there are too many daughters on the normal level, you're not matching my brother-in-law. You can burn it."

Yes, I did, and the maid walked away with a pageant seal.

Horsen's buyout is no less amazing than his father's.

"These things are coming too."

"Do you still have it?

The next thing the maid brought was still a pile of seals.

"Now what?

"Home."

"Home?"

"To put it bluntly, it's about doing the house."

"It's too straight! And this is no way..."

"Whoa! I didn't count ahead from 1000!

"Too many!

If I get all of them, I'll get 1,000 houses.

It's no longer a homeowner, it's a city level.

"Shit, it's too cheap for a house or a mansion to get into my brother-in-law, you can burn this too"

On Horsen's orders, the maid once again left with a pile of seals.

I took a deep breath.

"Something's gone wrong."

"Maybe at first. What are we gonna do, stop now, Vice Emperor? A man like my brother-in-law, not a vessel that fits into the ranks of vice emperor."

"Yeah, I'll do it"

I was remembering Eliza in my head.

Her determination, the ideals she spoke of.

Remembering that, I felt like I had to work hard, even if it was somewhat difficult.

"Oh! That's my brother-in-law! That's the man."

"Well, I guess so."

"Oh, my God, what's wrong with my brother-in-law now?"

Horsen used words like a young man.

That suits him well, too.

"All right, then I'll handle all of this from now on."

"Are you sure? Isn't that hard?

"It's no big deal. Anyone who wants to send something to my brother-in-law can beat me with a Tyman first."

"That's a mullige, isn't it?"

I laughed bitterly.

Horsen Choch, the empire's strongest samurai.

Who in the world can beat him with a Tyman?

"So don't worry, I'll take care of it. If there's a bone on it, it's funny."

Horsen lifted the corner of his mouth.

As self-declared, that's the face I think I'm really looking forward to.

If that's what you mean...

"Yeah, okay. Please."

"Say it! I'll take care of it. No!

Horsen laughed even more delightfully and luxuriously.
