Chapter 51

We left from the port city of Brindish, which was a bit far away.

It is well maintained for transportation. The closest port town at the moment.

Kiara insisted on seeing us off, and she was the only one of my relatives to do so.

If we don’t put a stop to this somewhere, she might even come in the bath.

Should I meet up with Mil as soon as possible?

 

Kiara’s face was full of lingering regret.

 

“Brother. Please be sure to write to me. I’ll do my best to support you by building a port town.”

 

“Oh, that’s right …… If you work too hard, you’ll end up mass-producing Mario. Make sure you take care of the health of your men too.”

 

The port was quickly built,

I don’t want to see a large number of living dead rebind dead being mass-produced instead.

 

“I understand. I will not do anything that will ruin Brother’s reputation.”

 

I was ready to board the ship, but Kiara grabbed my clothes and wouldn’t let go.

I’m in trouble.

She’s become dependent on me.

Part of the reason for this is me.

 

If I get married, she’ll settle down ……

I can feel the eyes on the ship urging me to hurry up and get on board, and I’m caught in the middle.

 

Yes, let’s just do it.

Last resort.

I kissed Kiara on the cheek.

 

“I’ll be back then.”

 

As I said that, I gently untied her hand.

As expected, Kiara’s face turned red and she stiffened.

I waved my hand and got on the boat, but Kiara was still stiff.

I guess it was a little too …… stimulating.

It’s not like it’s anything special like in America or anywhere else before my reincarnation.

There should be nothing strange about it.

 

The people around us whistled at us.

No, we’re brother and sister, though???

 

The teacher makes fun of me.

 

“You’re going to put your hand on your sister too? You’re too unscrupulous, kiddo.”

 

Charles sniffs in astonishment.

 

“Prof. Visconti. That was just a friendly greeting. You’ve never been with a woman before, have you?”

 

The teacher was blatantly flustered.

After all, he’s spot on.

 

“W-What does it matter!’

 

This man, Charles Rossi.

He’s actually a popular man who has had many affairs with women.

Even though he was accused of being unbecoming of a knight, he didn’t care.

This is part of the reason why he is being fed cold rice.

But that doesn’t mean he won’t change his ways.

 

“It is obvious that even if I were to change my behavior, they would come up with another quarrel. Then they should be satisfied with just me.”

 

Apparently, that’s what he told his subordinates.

I recognized the rightness of his words and couldn’t bring myself to condemn him.

That’s what happens when a relationship goes sour.

Charles’ sarcastic smile turned into a straight face.

 

“Lord Alfred. I would like to introduce you to my second-in-command and Lord Alfred’s personal bodyguard.”

(T/N: Changed Young Master Alfred to Lord Alfred. Young Master Alfred is too long and I think Mario or other servants in the mansion is the only people that will call him that.)

 

The two knights who had been waiting behind him stepped forward.

One of them is a knight who looks like a straight-laced person.

It is much rarer to find a knight who is not a straight-laced person, after all.

Silver hair and dark blue eyes.

I think he’s quite handsome.

 

“I am Robert Melchiorri, Sir Rossi’s second-in-command. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

 

I smiled and held out my hand.

Robert was momentarily taken aback, but hurriedly held out his hand.

I shook his hand, but it was still a lumpy hand.

I guess he’s always working out, even when he’s eating cold food.

 

That’s my kind of guy.

I love people who can’t be broken even when they’re in a bad situation.


 

I’d love to create opportunities for them.

Not every righteous effort will be rewarded in this world.

But I’d still like to make sure that it does, as far as I can see.

 

“I look forward to working with you.”

 

Charles looked at the handshake with a bit of surprise.

Well, no lord shakes hands every time.

But they were the ones who had been eating cold.

I should at least show that I’m taking a big step forward.

The first time is always the most important.

 

He immediately noticed my gaze and turned serious.

 

“If I’m not available, please direct your questions to Robert. One of them should stay close to Lord Alfred.”

 

The other was a stoutly built knight with a fierce look about him.

He has short-cut brown hair and brown eyes.

He has tanned skin that gives him a mild impression.

 

“I’ve been assigned as Lord Alfred’s bodyguard. My name is Jules D’Avorio.”

 

I smile and hold out my hand.

Jules smiled shyly and immediately held out his hand.

I smile and shake his hand.

Another powerful one.

 

“I’ll try to make it as easy as possible for you to escort me. I look forward to working with you.”

 

Charles added with a grin.

 

“Jules is not only good-looking, he is also well qualified as an escort. If he fights me ten times, he’ll get one from me at least once.”

 

One of the reasons why I indirectly nominated Charles, I see him as the best of the Scala family in combat.

As a knight, you need not only skill, but also loyalty and good behavior.

This is one of the reasons why he was nominated.

 

A knight is always accompanied by a squire.

When I was on the sidelines, there was one squire for every two knights.

With this reassignment, they were transferred to the front line.

For every knight, there are three squires.

This was due in large part to Edmund’s favorable impression of me.

There were some questions about the number of squires in the knights’ group.


 

Edmund suppressed it with a single word from his crane.

People’s goodwill is not something to be taken lightly.

 

The number of people in the first group was

With Charles at the top were 30 and 90 squires for a total of 120.

Forty families in poverty, 172 people.

The ordinary citizens numbered 89.

Me and my teacher, a total of 386 people.

 

So I hold the fate of many people in my hands.

It’s the size of a small company.

I couldn’t have imagined this before my reincarnation.

 

If I think about it too much, a hole will open up in my stomach.

But I can’t stop, either.

God is going to make me use my power.

That’s what the questions and answers are telling me.

Worst of all, he could send down a new apostle and hit me with it.

I don’t know how much time I have left, but I don’t think I have time to take any detours.

 

By then, they can think for themselves and decide how to live ……

In other words, I want to create a society for them.

 

If I have to use my powers in the worst-case scenario ……

All I have to do is disappear somewhere else.

I don’t think I’d go that far, to be honest.

It’s just …… in preparation for the worst-case scenario.

I wonder what kind of move this God will do to get to me.

 

 

I’ll have to think about that later.

I turned to teacher and Charles.

 

“There is something I would like to ask of you both in the development of this territory.”

 

Charles put his hand on his chin with a slightly probing look on his face.

 

“Hmm. What is it?”

 

The teacher looked at me suspiciously.

 

“Your demands, huh. It doesn’t sound like a good idea.”

 

“I want you to feel free to express your opinions to me. I will never punish you or treat you unkindly.”

 

Charles looked interested.

 

“Hmm. Why is that, again?”

 

“Maybe …… No doubt, I will make many mistakes in my future decisions. I don’t want to be wrong by choice, but …… I’m an imperfect person, so I can’t help it. And the later you are, the harder it will be for you to admonish me. If you accumulate achievements, no one will be able to give you an opinion, after all.”

 

Charles nodded with a sarcastic look on his face.

 

“I guess so. It’s just …… There are a lot of people who want that. In their heart of hearts, they want advice that will not offend you. Advice that is convenient for them.”

 

“You can’t reach them with vague words or words that are meant to put them in a good mood. Depending on the situation, you may have to say too much. An unreachable admonition is a waste of time. So there is no need for any discursive pretense.”

 

Charles’ smile deepened.

 

“Oh …… Well, well, well.”

 

I’m sure they’re going to find out if these words are true or false.

I’m sure he’s saying that in a way.

I’ll tell the teacher, too, just in case.

 

“The teacher has known me for a long time, so I’m sure he won’t mind. It’s an important point …… As long as women are not involved, insight can be expected.”

 

The teacher’s cheek twitched.

 

“Hey, kiddo ……”

 

“Sir Rossi is not a man to be shy. But since I’m giving the orders, I can control the backlash around me. No matter how you put it.”

 

Charles nodded with some admiration.

 

Do you really care that much? As I thought, you’re not sixteen.”

 

I’ve gotten used to it.

I definitely need someone to remonstrate with me.

I have no illusions about my own judgment.

Even Taejong Lee Seomin wanted a vassal who would give him advice.

Not me, anyway.

Admonition is painful to hear, but it is necessary to cool your head.

 

There are not many people who have the ability to cool themselves down.
