Episode 73. Become a lord (6)

“Ma’am. “This is Count Frauche de Raisel, who has been appointed as the new lord.”

“My name is Count Frauche de Raisel. It’s an honor to meet you.”

Perorin introduced it first.

I slightly bowed my head to show respect.

“My name is Seriana Pnaini. It is an honor to meet Count Frausch. And this child is called Ionia, her my daughter.”

Seriana greeted and introduced her daughter.

A pretty woman about eighteen years old.

Beautifully braided hair and impressive sky blue eyes.

I can see his curiosity towards me.

“It is called Ionian Pnaini. “It is an honor, Count Frausch.”

“Nice to meet you, Miss Ionia.”

It wasn’t awkward from the first meeting.

There was formality, but it wasn’t arrogant or harsh.

“Please sit at the head of the table.”

Seriana offered me a seat.

The head table where her husband and lord would once sit.

“thank you.”

I didn’t decline.

From now on, I am the lord who will protect them.

Although he is young, he has become a real adult.

“I don’t think there’s much to prepare, but please enjoy it.”

“no. Excellent.”

His cooking skills are considerable.

Herbs sprinkled on golden, oily grilled lamb ribs.

There is no fishy smell at all.

The refreshing meat stew and freshly baked bread are also delicious.

It’s not a course meal, but it’s satisfying enough.

A dinner full of sincerity.

I scooped up the stew and took a bite.

My eyes opened brightly.

“Delicious. very.”

I was hungry.

The cooking at the knight school was excellent, but it didn’t have this kind of sincerity.

A mother’s sincere heart for her family.

Forgetting about face, I started eating the food with great enjoyment.

Clatter rattle rattle rattle.

Perhaps by coincidence, the spicy yet refreshing meat stew captivated my appetite.

The bread was also chewy.

Not to mention meat.

Moderately grilled lamb ribs that are crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.

It’s an illusion.

“brother. “Is it that delicious?”

“Rogerine, what are you talking about to the lord? A brother to the Count… … . “Please apologize.”

“Mom, that’s… … .”

Seriana immediately admonished Roselyn.

I felt a strict family tradition.

“I’m sorry, my lord. The child is immature yet… … . “On my behalf, I apologize.”

Seriana stood up, bowed her head, and asked for forgiveness.

What formality!

Nobility… It’s a tough job.

“An apology? no. I allowed him to call me oppa first. “Do not reproach me.”

“yes?”

“Brausch told me to stop talking.”

“still… … .”

“it’s okay. “I wish I had a younger sibling.”

“No matter what, please refrain from rude behavior that would lose your dignity as a noble child.”

“yes… … .”

When Seriana advised, Roselyn responded politely.

It’s a good family.

Unlike Roselyn, Ionia ate quietly.

The gentle smile was elegant.

She is worthy of being the precious wife of a noble family.

I think I would be very popular if I entered the aristocratic social world.

“Count Frausch… … .”

The meal is over.

Time to drink tea with dessert.

At that time, Seriana opened her mouth.

“Seriana, please do not hesitate to speak.”

Seriana bit her lip slightly.

“Now that the owner of the estate, the Count, has arrived, I will leave here. Just let me stay for a while while I look for a house. “I couldn’t find a house because I was in a hurry.”

Seriana speaks cautiously and confidently without losing manners.

Even after losing her husband and son, she maintained her family’s pride.

A great example of a mother.

I feel so sorry for this family.

“Seriana, I would like you to stay here.”

“yes???”

“Baron Pnaini passed away in the arms of God while performing his duty as a knight. As a knight and lord of the empire, I cannot dare to think of sending such a person’s family out without any measures. So, I hope he stays here with his daughters.”

“… … .”

Seriana looks at me with surprising eyes.

According to original custom, it is an unwritten rule that if the owner of the territory changes, the castle is vacated.

“but… … Count, that is not right. We took a moment… … .”

“Seriana!”

I called his name firmly.

“I’m sorry to interrupt you, but please do it this way.”

“???”

“If your territory is stable, we will provide you with a place to live in the capital.”

“Oh, no. “My lord, there is no obligation to do so.”

“I think it is moral and reasonable to do so. Please know that.”

He said definitively.

The words of noble women who had no money were obvious.

You will be sold as someone’s concubine or sex slave.

The dead Baron Fnaini will be saddened.

From my perspective, I feel at ease when I clearly calculate and pay for the land.

“And if I could eat this delicious food every day, I would want to be happy even if I had to sell my estate.”

He concluded his speech with a smile.

That moment.

“Hmm.”

“Huh… … .”

Tears formed in the eyes of Seriana and her two daughters.

What can nobles do who have no money and nowhere to go?

And that too with the fragile bodies of women.

It is natural for sighs of relief and tears of joy to flow regardless of intention.

In addition, Sir Perorin, a loyal knight who was large but gentle, also had tears in his eyes.

“Brother Frausch, I will listen carefully to Roselyn from now on… … .”

Little Roselyn also sniffles and speaks in a bright voice.

My heart became bright.

I don’t have any family anyway.

Crucially, with cooking skills like this, my future life at the estate would be very enjoyable.

That’s how my first day at the territory started with emotion.

We ate and drank fruit and tea.

Haha, I had a good time.

“Phew… … .”

It wasn’t until late at night that I returned to my room.

Lord Perorin and Seriana delivered various information.

I also learned many miscellaneous things.

The bedroom is right next to the office.

Seriana and her family lived on the first floor.

“There are only five maids in this big castle.”

These are the widows and children of soldiers.

The former lord took him with him because he had nowhere to go.

Soldiers took the place of servants.

A fiefdom that is too unsightly for an aristocratic value.

This is the reality of territory.

“I came without saying anything… … . “I miss you already.”

I miss Fiona.

Even if you want to go, you cannot come and go without permission.

He was given the task of protecting the territory by order of the emperor.

There was no moving magic circle.

A movement magic that is a high-circle magic.

This is advanced knowledge that not everyone can obtain.

“I don’t have enough knights, soldiers, or money. “Is there any way to make the territory wealthy in a short period of time?”

In my heart of hearts, I want to steal at least a dragon rare.

My thoughts were complicated.

Time passed quietly.

From the first day, I enjoyed the emotions of the lord in agony.

Even Master Cheokcheok can’t find the answer.

“ha.”

I was frustrated and headed up.

The inner wall is the highest here.

Jump and jump.

When you reach the end, you can see the outside of the castle.

Before you know it, it’s morning.

The castle and fields visible in the red dawning sunlight.

It’s spectacular.

The site of a typical Baesan Imsu.

You can see the mountain range behind and the rolling fields and hills ahead.

A typical pastoral landscape.

“Whoa… … .”

I took a long breath.

An alien world brought to us by a quantum transfer device.

In less than a year, many events and relationships have occurred.

The proportion of happiness is greater than unhappiness.

There is no need to complain when you are full.

Thanks to my teacher, I became a great noble here too.

This continent where magic, martial arts, and spirits are real.

I filled my heart with hope.

“Reck, stop staring and come here. “Isn’t it cold?”

At that time, I heard a loud voice.

My eyes turned to that place.
