The Walking Corpse Society is a salon for veterans whose magic organs are cured by me with healing magic.
I have never visited the salon because it seems to be located in the royal capital but every now and then, I receive something like a newsletter.
In the latest issue, there was a story about playing tennis together and a grandfather member boasted about his grandchildren….
I wonder if such an easy going society can really be of help.
「I see, let me contact them. Veterans have a lot of time on their hands so they might be helpful.」
「Then, I will prepare a letter to Baron Goshushin, he’s the organizer.」
「Can I write to him instead?」
As I said that, brother in law cupped his chin in my direction but Laura-san shook her head.
「My husband is too business minded so making him do anything will definitely have the opposite effect.」
「He’s the guy who built the transcontinental railroad that made Kraunia smaller so that’s expected. 」
I don’t know if they’re complimenting or bad mouthing me. In any case, I’m from a merchant family so it can’t be helped, right?
Though I was too scared to say anything.

Brother in law ended up staying in Torquiva for three days to wait for the train to return home.
I was happy to serve as his guide but I had no place to take him.
After all, the Slayra family is a very big family, a family of margrave.
Most things are in their hometown and even if you can’t find it there, they definitely exist in the royal capital.
Since this discussion is a private one, he won’t be visiting Torquiva’s lord, the Snore family, and of course, he has no business at the Magic Academy.
After watching Noah and Lacus play with each other for a while, I decided to take brother in law to the baseball field.
Well, it’s something you’ll never find in the Slayra territory.
Blue skies, blowing cold winds, shouts all over the place, and a crowd of commoners. This is something hard to find in this world.
The view from the VIP seats on the hill where only mages are allowed is spectacular.
「What the heck is this place?」
『Batter, number 5, Kakra』
「What is that noise?」
Brother in law seemed to be completely taken aback by the sight of the baseball stadium he had never seen before..
「This is a place to play baseball.」
「Baseball…..is that the thing where you hit the ball with a stick?」
「You know about it!?」
「I heard about it in a salon in the royal capital as a barbaric game of the south.」
Brother in law said that with a somewhat dissatisfied look on his face and pout his lips as he smoked a cigarette.
「Here, even the count competed.」
「Fuh, I guess he tried some things in his free time.」
「Ah, right. The two teams playing right now are the ones I and Laura-san manage.」
Today, the Scorpions and the White Beams were playing a friendly match but without mages so it was more like a practice match.
「Manage? What do you mean?」
「We fund the teams and keep the members in line. Sometimes, we even join the team on their matches.」
「My little sister has learned a strange hobby since she came to this place……」
He let out a puff of smoke as if to sigh in disappointment and drank out of a paper cup of ale.
He’s blonde, macho, and good looking. He looks like a Hollywood star on his day off.
As expected of someone with a good face.
「However, isn’t this game even serious? How pathetic are you to not even hit a ball like that?」
「It’s not easy to hit a ball like that.」
「I don’t think so.」
Brother in law snorted but it’s true that Laura-san was able to hit the ball from the start.
Perhaps the Slayra family are natural born hard hitters.
「Would you like to try, your excellency?」
「Playing ball? Nonsense」
「Our team has some players who can play pretty well against Laura-san too.」
「Fuh, perhaps she has weakened after retiring from the military. However, she’s not the kind of woman who would have a problem dealing with some commoners.」
「Maa……if it’s a competition that doesn’t use magic, anything is possible.」
I didn’t mean to stir things up but as it turned out, my words seemed to have provoked brother in law.
Whew, I looked at brother-in-law’s face as purple smoke sprayed out and then, saw it……the eyes with the same color as Laura-san’s and a face with a grin.
