「….ah, right, I remember that I didn’t give you and my little sister a wedding gift. How about, if you’re up to it, I can hook you up with someone to write the script?」

「……eh! Really!?」

The long silence breaks when brother-in-law says that even though he still has a reluctant look on his face. I even involuntarily asked back loudly in surprise.

「It may be a tiny little theater but it’s your castle. A castle must have the right treasures. You should at least have a little more dignity given that you are a member of the Slayra family.」

「Y-yess….you’re absolutely right…..」

「So about what I just said?」

「Ah, please, by all means! By all means!」

My brother in law’s proposal was really a godsend, a piece of wood in the middle of the ocean.

I had been thinking of ordering scripts from some writer that would be the centerpiece of the theater and I couldn’t be happier to use my connection with a great noble to find one.

「What kind of playwright do you prefer? For a comedy? Opera?」

The names of many great writers flashed in and out of my mind in an instant but before I could scrutinize them, there was one name that slipped out of my mouth.

「Mesias……ano, have you heard of the playwright named Mesias?」

Mesias was a charismatic figure in the eyes of my generation of theatergoers.

He had a fresh approach, a profound worldview, and a strong auteuristic sense that never faded, no matter what genre it is.

Thinking back to the day I had my first date with my wife, Laura-san, I think we talked about Mesias.

Anyway, he is my all time favorite playwright.

「Mesias? The 4th son of Count Warren? Isn’t he a successful playwright?」

「As expected, that’s too much of a request.」

「Not really. But it’s up for the other party to decide.」

As he said that, brother in law wrote something in a notebook he took out of his pocket.

「Eh? Then……can you introduce me!?」

「The 3rd son of Count Warren is working for a friend of mine so I’ll see what I can do.」

「Yahoo!」

I couldn’t help but jump for joy upon hearing brother-in-law say that.

If I could open my dream theater with a play written by Mesias……I wouldn’t mind dying!

No, I can’t really die because I have twins but……anyway, it would be a tremendous honor if this were to happen.

Ah, that reminds me, brother in law is going to get married soon.

It’s bad enough that I only kept getting favors for him so I’ll do whatever I can to repay the favor.

「I apologize for the inconvenience……by the way, brother-in-law is going to get married soon, right? Actually, we make a sake that is very popular among the women of the royal capital, so I would like to give it to you.」

「You mean Laura Rola?…..it was very thoughtful of you to send drinks named after your wife to her own brother. 」

Brother-in-law chuckled as he said this, searched his breast pocket, and noticed that his cigarette box was empty.

He tucked it away in his pocket with a disapproving look and on his face……after that, he wiped his face of beads of perspiration uncomfortably.

I was like, Oh no……I got carried away and really told him that I’m sending sake named after his little sister to him.

「Ah, right……sorry」

「Don’t mind it. I’m not going to turn away a celebratory gift.」

Brother in law said that, put his hand on his chin and continued…..

「If you really want to send me a celebratory gift, send me one of those air conditioners, no, maybe three of them.」

「Ah, yes!」

He actually wanted it after all that sarcasm……tsundere.

Under the blistering sun, I left the construction ongoing theater while asking brother in law for detailed specifications of the air conditioners.
