That day, I was waiting for Sandra to come to the guest room to have a meeting with her before my magic training.
On the table was a cup of tea that Deanna had brewed for me and a neatly arranged list of the " Education Course in Magical Studies" that Sandra and I had been compiling.
I am sipping the cup of tea and going over the documents again until she arrives.
As I sipped my tea while looking over the documents, there was a knock at the door. I answered it and Deanna entered the guest room and looked at me after bailing.
" Master Rid, Miss Sandra is here to see you. May I lead her in?"
"Yes, please."
After hearing my answer, she bows again and leaves the room.
I drank the tea that was left in my cup, put the papers I was checking back on the desk, and waited for Sandra to arrive.
Soon after, there was a knock at the door, and when I answered, Sandra entered the room.
'Master Rid, thank you for waiting for me .
'Thank you for coming, . Please come this way. Deanna, I'm sorry, but could you please pour a cup of tea? And could you pour me another cup?"
As I asked Sandra to sit on the sofa in front of me across the table, I shifted my gaze to Deanna in the middle of the room and asked her for a cup of tea.
Deanna bows, and then exits the room.
Sandra sat down on the sofa at my prompting and turned her happy, shining eyes on me.
'That's a sudden turn of events, by the way. ...... I was surprised to get a call ....... I didn't expect you to purchase around 150 beast slaves at once.'"
"I didn't expect to buy around 150 beastmen slaves in one go. I am also surprised because I honestly did not expect such a development'.
The other day, after the meeting with father and Chris and the others, I immediately sent a letter to Sandra saying 'Do not talk about it' to let her know what had happened.
Of course, I needed to confirm with Sandra about the "magical course of study" to be given to the slaves.
Sandra was very surprised when I told her that one of the purposes of purchasing the slaves was to "systematically train the slaves in magic and use them as a stepping stone for the territory's development.
But I think it was typical of her that her eyes immediately lit up with "'Interesting , let's do it!
However, I was still a little concerned about something, so I looked at Sandra with a slightly worried look on my face and asked her,
"So, how are the 'people' requested Sandra to help you with? I've talked to my father, and we've set up a place that could be used for a simple laboratory.'
"They are all very enthusiastic about helping me with my research and the creation of a magical education program. Don't worry, they are all very enthusiastic about helping me with my research and the creation of a magical educational program. They are very grateful to the Bardia family for finally allowing them to live off of the research they love."
Sandra smiled happily as she finished.
I smiled as if my worry turned to relief when I saw the look on her face.
"I see. I'm glad to hear that. I'll have to go and say hello to everyone again sometime soon."
"I'm sure they'll be happy to see yoU "
Sandra smiled kindly at my words, as if she was truly happy.
Her smile made my face break out in tears as I thought back to "them.
In fact, during the period from about half a year ago up to the present, "certain people" had come to the Bardia territory from all over the land.
They were people who worked at the same research laboratory when Sandra was the head of in the Imperial Capital, and were her subordinates and researchers.
They were "excellent researchers" who had been recruited to create "magic recovery medicine" in the capital regardless of status.
Unfortunately, however, the research of the "magic restorative," which was thought to be impossible to create, and the investment of funds in the "researchers," regardless of their status, aroused the suspicion and discontent of some Imperial aristocrats.
Later, Sandra and her colleagues were blocked in their research by some aristocrats and were forced to take responsibility for their inability to produce the desired results and were forced to leave the institute.
In Sandra's case, her knowledge and wisdom might be able to cure her mother
The father, who felt that it was a good idea, told her to come to the Bardia territory, and she was able to get things done.
However, that is not the case for the other researchers.
They all went to the research lab in the capital with the blessings of their hometowns, but were mistreated and forced to return to their home towns, a situation that must have been very painful for them.
Some of them even tried to take their own lives, and Sandra and the other researchers had to work very hard to convince them not to do so.
I think it is ironic that Sandra, who was treated in such a way, secretly completed the "magic restorative" in collaboration with me.
I will not disclose the existence of the potion until my mother recovers from her illness.
But when it is made public, it will surely be the greatest disgrace in history caused by a few of the incompetent imperial aristocrats.
Just as I was thinking about this, there was a knock at the door, and when I answered it, Deanna brought me a cup of tea for two.
"Thank you, Deanna."
"Thank you, Deanna."
Deanna bobbed her head in acknowledgement of my and Sandra's words and, with a lean, keen knightly gesture, placed the tea in front of us and added, "Please note that it is hot.
"Please be careful, it's very hot."
She then bailed us out and quietly left the reception room.
However, she was waiting at the door ready to move as soon as I called out to her.
Sandra, who had been looking at me until Deanna left the room, let out a sigh.
What's wrong?
'Hah,...... we want people like Deanna and Capella in our laboratory too,'. I know it's not easy because the researchers, myself included, are more preoccupied with their research than cleaning up."
"Is that so? I'm not sure how much of a challenge that would be."
I was joking, but Sandra's eyes swam at my words.
I had a very bad feeling about this, so I asked her with a grim look.
"...... You don't mean to tell me that the place has been turned into a dump? Really?"
What? Oh, no,...... it's not a dump, but the materials are in a pretty messy place. Hahaha......"
In response to my question, Sandra spoke with a look of displeasure on her face and finally laughed dryly while putting one hand on the back of her head.
Imagining the situation that her appearance suggests, I turned my head down and shook my head lightly while placing my hand on my forehead like my father, and then after a short pause, I let out a sigh.
'Huh,...... I get it. I'll see if I can get someone to help Sandra and her family."
Sandra's expression of surprise was perhaps not what I was expecting, but then her eyes lit up and she leaned forward with great vigor, uttering the following words of delight: "Really?
Is it true⁉ Well, I guess I'll just have to say it. Master Rid, please take care of that ."
When she finished, she bowed her head.
I was taken aback by her expression and said to her as if to nail her to the wall.
"...., you know, you should organize your own documents a little better, don't you think? I said, 'I'll make sure it's ready,' so I didn't promise anything."
I understand. I know. I'll make sure to organize it properly. But still, I'm looking forward to ...... seeing what kind of people are coming ......."
She didn't seem to have heard a word I said.
"I was so stunned that I hung my head, but then I returned to the main topic of the meeting, "The Magic Educational Course."
