Chapter 105 – Müller – 7
A month has passed.
Incompetent people are fired, competent people are reaped.
Triana Müller was given the position of captain of the guard. The authority in charge of the security of the castle and the security of this city is greater than expected. To put it bluntly, the authority to be in charge of guarding this castle when I’m not there falls under the second and third categories.
Give the remaining direct line of the Müller family that level of authority. To Müller, that seemed to mean that I had done some water changes now. It actually meant something like that. No one expressed dissatisfaction in the first place, but the faces of the people who were working with fear rather than dissatisfaction were given some leeway. It seems that Zeke has completed the verification to some extent and is now concentrating on domestic affairs in earnest, and Chloe also seems to be trying to redecorate the once disbanded Knights.
“I thought I was dying.”
Chloe appeared in his office with a pale face.
“I thought I was used to Hans’ training… It was an illusion. It’s terrible. Help me, Leo-sama.”
“Yeah, sorry.”
Will you stop looking at me like an abandoned puppy?
If I fight Hans, of course I win. No, Hans also has a lot of practical experience, and the battlefields he went to with his father are countless. There may be something like a hidden one, but I must have a higher win rate because I personally learned overwhelming magical power and basically how to move the body. . In the first place, the way to target me in the air with Hans’ magic was limited. However, individual strength is not something I can do about the collective strength, which is a characteristic of the knights anyway. How much more teaching?
“You just have to be patient.”
“There is a limit to what you can tolerate! If you’re going to become a guild leader in the future, it’s too unreasonable for me to do all the hell training divided by field, saying that you have to do this yourself from next time!”
Chloe is usually cold-hearted and has a clear distinction between work and business. Seeing her weak voice, she really seems to be acting like a dog. It made me laugh when I saw her sobbing almost to the point of crying. Let’s hold on.
“What about the other knights?”
“We are in group training right now.”
“Ah…”
Franz’s person might be dissatisfied if he rolls this much, but in the first place, Hans is a person who is still playing directly on the field even though he has aged that much. He must have subdued them with his skills, and the tribe of knights tend to respect such honor and power. The same goes for Chloe who came to Franz with her… No, since I’m rolling more, there’s no way I’m complaining.
“Then they must be on a break?”
“… Yes.”
Chloe’s eyes flashed sharply.
Her gaze fell on her twin brother escorting her outside the door.
“Well, we are at work!”
“Isn’t this a break?”
Flaw.
Sometimes it’s good
“The escort duties will be taken over by Chloe from now on. You go to training.”
“Yeah eh?! It’s our shift!”
“Then! Do you know how much I paid for drinks to occupy this time!”
“Is there any way to know?”
Chloe’s face hardened at the mention of the price of alcohol.
Did he feel the magical power of Chloe that was slowly rising?
“Training is the duty of a knight! We’ll be on our way!”
“Loyalty!”
A smile appeared on the corner of their lips when they saw the twin brothers leave immediately. Chloe sighed as she left in a tumultuous way. Still, when I look at it, my anger melts away. I don’t mind.
“Most of them would have lived in castles, but it’s amazing how they’re not shy.”
I heard that he often hangs out under the castle because he is more free than I am, but is that his personality too?
“Yes. Seeing that you’re already drinking with the Mullers, you’ve definitely reached the point of dating people.”
Maybe Chloe wasn’t too angry, so she quickly relaxed her expression. Although Franz is in the top position, it is not bad to get along well with people like that, since there are not enough of them and you have to live together from now on. Rather, it is a situation that should be recommended. So, I also looked at Chloe. Seeing as she averted her gaze from my gaze, she noticed too.
“How are you with Triana?”
“… Mmm. Dating people is not my specialty. And first of all, you are a nobleman, aren’t you?”
We’re the same age, we’re the same gender. It would be nice if the seniors were close to each other, but I don’t think it’s going well. But. Because you’re a noble Because her magical power is the second strongest after me.
“I don’t think it’s bad though.”
It’s such an awkward expression, so I wonder if it’s really like that. He smiled and dragged Chloe by the hand.
“Ummm, are these business hours?”
“Yes. My escort job. Shouldn’t you be close to the escort target?”
“You speak well. So are your twin brothers this close?”
I don’t even want to imagine that. Maybe my eyebrows were furrowed, Chloe smiled and came closer. The small, compact body naturally climbed onto my thighs.
“Then I can’t help it. I have to escort the most important place.”
“Thank you, Sir Chloe.”
At my words, Chloe put her hand on my pants with a bewitching smile.
* * *
“Miss!”
“Oh, Cherry.”
Cherry, Triana’s handmaid and aide, brought the documents. Triana checked it one last time and nodded her head. Now is the time for her to show her skills. She has to prove that she can do it without mistakes, so she is careful not to make the slightest mistake. After making sure there was no mistake, she looked at Cherry.
“Thank you, Cherry.”
“No, that’s about it!”
As Cherry with her pink hair said with a wide smile, the surroundings seemed to brighten up her. Aside from her magic, she is popular because of her looks and personality, so many men in the castle are targeting her. However, her magic power is not bad, so it can be said that she is a first-class bride. Cherry is now at the age to get married.
“I will only go after you go first! So you should hurry up and find a mate!”
“Okay, thanks. I’ll find you later.”
“Really! She always said that and kept putting it off!”
He smiled bitterly at Cherry’s complaint. Now that her situation has come to this, it might be difficult for her to find someone of the same noble family to marry. Thinking so, I grabbed the papers and stood up.
“Are you going to the lord?”
“Yes. You should report it within today. You can go to work first today. I’ve been working a lot, so take a break early. Meet my family too.”
“Uhm. All right! Then, you too, get some rest soon!”
I walked down the aisle as she greeted Cherry, who greeted her. There’s nothing special about it, so it’ll be over soon. Triana remembered her own lord, who had come into her own not too long ago.
Leoric Franz.
The second son of the Franz family and an aristocrat with the magic of the sun. The man is clearly a mutant in a series of trends in this world, where the entire family researches their own magic power and acquires that power in most cases. But it’s not like that’s not the case…
“It’s just heroes from old stories…”
Triana smiled bitterly.
When she first appeared, I thought she wasn’t human when I saw her god-like figure rising from the sky high like the sun and looking down, but after meeting her recently and talking to her a few times, she realized that it wasn’t just that.
Leoric, despite being close to the lord and knowing his personality, Chloe and Zeke both nodded their heads inwardly when they were told that they were heroes who would rule this area.
“Leoric… Franz…”
It was a short time, but I could see his ability. Even though he says he doesn’t want to do it, he doesn’t refuse the job he takes on, and he does anything skillfully. He rewards his people and treats them warmly, but when he punishes them, he does it more ruthlessly than anyone else. What about magic attribute? Even though she is still in her 20s, she possesses her own magic power, a fragment of power that no one has been able to obtain among the ancient powers of the sun.
It is the quality of a hero.
“Even if you don’t want to…”
As his grandfather said, looking at the recent situation, it is not strange if something happens, and there are piles of greedy lords nearby.
This is probably because money and troops only piled up while ruling the fertile land of the southern region, and as a generational change occurred, more lords did not know about the wars of the previous era.
“Wars happen.”
So now many people from Müller and people from Franz are moving quickly.
– Again, again.
He walked down the hallway, down a hallway that was still unfamiliar to him.
At the end of this road that I didn’t come to often, there was a dull colored door that seemed to give a sense of pressure. I walked up to the door and suddenly noticed something strange.
“Why are the escort drivers?”
Normally, there should be an escort at the door… Triana tilted her head. Did something happen? After she pondered for a moment, Triana took a deep breath and knocked on her door.
-Smart!
“This is Triana.”
She knocks on the door and waits a minute. Normally, even when she is working, the story comes out from inside… Its sillent.
Maybe something happened to Triana. Normally, it is forbidden for her to generate magic in the castle, but just in case, just in case, she was about to slowly generate magic when she heard a voice from inside.
“Yes. Come in.”
“… Yeah.”
It is the voice of the lord.
Are you okay for now? She hesitated for a moment before opening the door.
I slowly opened it with a clicking sound and looked inside. There is no sign of being disturbed, and her magical power is also calm. The lord, who was sitting at the desk in front of me, was looking at me with a smile as usual.
“It’s okay. Not a big deal. It was because of what you were doing.”
“Ah yes. Sorry.”
Triana bowed her head as her cheeks blushed as she spoke with a wry smile, as if caught browsing her room.
-Chewup…
“Yes?”
I thought I heard something strange.
Triana looked around her for a bit, then immediately approached her desk with her papers at the sight of the lord looking at her.
-Chung!
“… Well?”
“Why?”
Seeing Triana hesitate, the lord smiled mischievously.
“No, I think I heard a strange noise…”
“Well? So? I didn’t hear Oh, did you see this?”
“Ah yes! This is the report.”
Triana put her papers on her desk.
– Knocked up!
“Uh?”
It looks like the desk just moved… ?
Triana’s gaze began to turn to the desk.
