Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 141

After Eldmia finished her business and left the office, Duke Lesrom sighed deeply as he sat in a chair while placing the document he had received on the desk.

Unlike the relaxed attitude he showed in front of the boy just before, the expression of deep fatigue expressed his sincerity.

You may have sewn the first button wrong.

His intuition, which he had endured for a long time in the den of vipers called the political arena, was telling. At the end, when she gave a subtle answer that was neither positive nor negative with a confused expression, all Eldmia showed was only minimal respect for herself. Regarding that part, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it was a godsend to treat him favorably when you first met him.

“I’m going to live a long time in this world, but… I never imagined I’d have to go through this.”

There is no fear of the royal family or worries about the political battles of the aristocrats. The emotions I felt from him throughout listening to his story were at a level that could be expressed as irritation and annoyance.

If an immature little boy is ignorant of the world and just arrogant, it would be normal to laugh it off…

“The only thing that overlaps is that he’s a little boy.”

Are you 15 now? Except for the face that still has a youthful look, there is nothing that can be considered to be that age. If you drink tea with a beast in front of you, you will feel a similar feeling.

Duke Lesrom, who took out a contact crystal orb, trying to get rid of the idea that it was nothing to do with his age, injected mana for communication.

-It ended sooner than expected. How was it?-

As if waiting, the face of the person who drove him into this situation was reflected on the connected crystal ball. It was true that I was actually waiting. As soon as I heard the news of Eldmia’s visit, I contacted him, received instructions, and even finished talking about reporting when the story was sorted out.

Duke Lesrom, who lightly bowed to King Itthiel VII, the ruler of the crystal sphere and the king of Itthiel, began to report the results.

“For now, I got a grace period to watch the progress. But I can assure you, you shouldn’t think that just giving a moderate amount of compensation will solve the problems related to it.”

However, it is not an awkward relationship to the point of kneeling in front of a crystal ball. Although not known to the public, the relationship between the two was very close and could be called friends regardless of status. That’s why they were able to endure for seven years by working together to protect the kingdom that was in danger of collapsing internally and externally.

Ironically, the adversity that lasted for 7 years had made the two of them closer, but it didn’t matter now.

-Are you a person to be wary of?-

“It is possible that the beginning was wrong. The thinking is different from that of ordinary people.”

-What does it mean to be different?-

“Let’s assume I’ve been swayed by someone… knowingly or unknowingly using their hands to take advantage of my power and position. In that case, of course, I’ll find out who’s behind them, figure out their purpose or intentions, and know whether they’re enemies or allies.” I’m going to try to separate the perceptions, but if the person who took advantage of it gives me something much more than I expected as an apology, I’ll treat it favorably. will.”

A very common sense story. In terms of gains and losses, it is inevitable. But the 15-year-old boy, who has no idea where he came from, is taking the problem in a completely different form.

“But the person named Eldmia Ega doesn’t think that way. Just because I gave him 10 damage and 20 profit, I don’t remember him as a person who gave him 10 profit. They perceive it as an enemy who wants to take advantage of it.”

I don’t care if it makes a difference or not. Because they regard the benefits they have gained as fodder for the enemy to shake. It is possible that there may be a very hedonistic idea that he takes care of his own gain anyway.

That’s why I thoroughly smash it so that I can’t even dare to use myself again. It seems extremely emotional and irresponsible, but the fact that it is an absurd conclusion that came after one’s own calculations is another thorny part.

If there is any comfort in the fact that it is expected that there will be no remorse because it is not moving emotionally, it is at the level of a comforter. It meant that if we could maintain a friendly relationship after that one blood loss, we could have Eldmia Ega as our ally.

Unless you pay with your life for messing with him without knowing who he is.

“This conversation made me a little more certain. He will definitely hold us responsible for trying to root out Count Bossa and his forces using the Marquis of Levien.” –

Even

if that’s the king?

-Then what’s quiet right now…-

“I think it’s just making an estimate…”

To what extent did you act selfishly and how far did you touch yourself with the intention of showing sincerity?

Is that a level that you can understand yourself or a level that turns you into an enemy?

Even if you call it a guest machine, there is no problem. How can one man deal with the state?

However, he behaves in such a way that the state can’t catch a single person who is determined and rampant.

The problem was that, judging from what he had done so far, it was true.

“Still, he is a boy with common sense and knowledge. As I said before, he moves based on calculations that are considered nonsense from a general point of view, but from a theoretical point of view, there is no problem, and he has a lot of petty affection. Indiscriminate violence to others. I’m not the type of person who wields a weapon first and sees it for no reason.”

-Jeong… The key to controlling the most uncertain person is the most uncertain emotional factor.-

Ethiel 7 years old was stroking his beard while bursting into laughter, but the emotions Duke Lesrom was feeling were no different.

“Even though the daughter of the Ogatorf family was violent at first meeting, they are maintaining a relationship without any problems as of now. Unless they are maliciously hostile or take advantage of him, they are considered to be more normal than expected. .”

-Aren’t you putting up with it because of the benefits of the Ogatorf family?-

“If that’s the case, you wouldn’t go through the eccentricities of working as a butler while refusing the biggest benefits that the Ogatorf family can give you.”

Sir Ekaf was both a loyalist and a pure knight who did not know politics.

Reports that come up periodically do not miss the content of Eldmia, who is a promising talent and has made the biggest contribution to packaging Ragnis as the Marquis of Levien, a hero of misfortune. It also included the expectation that Eldmia would receive an official reward from the royal family.

“I feel that if we can be human, we can steer our future relationship in a positive direction.”

humane. To Duke Lesrom, it was a very distant and unfamiliar word.

Although it was unknown whether doing so would result in complete indulgence, it would certainly be cheaper than ending up with someone dying.

– After hearing your story, I even think that it might be better to take this opportunity to deal with it

.

– Ha ha ha that’s right. However, it is true that I feel like a talented person who has the potential to be heinous enough to be worthy of such an evaluation

. Such an attitude always leads to regression. King Itthiel VII and Duke Lesrom knew this fact better than anyone else.

“Who knows? Before this is over, maybe we can find out who the commander of the Demon King’s army is, which is his target. If you tell us that, I think that friend will be able to skip this one too.”

-……If you catch the demons captives, I’ll have to tell them to interrogate who started the war

.

?

As I left the aristocratic house, I earnestly prayed to God that I would not be alone with that old man like a serpent three times.

I’ve never thought of myself as exceptionally smart in my previous life, and I think it’s the same here, but as I keep getting involved with people like that, I feel like I’m getting tired just by breathing.

To wield a sword by clearly covering the wrongs only means that in the end, if you are not sure, you will not be able to do either one or the other. It is said that the more brainy people than me are intertwined and the more twisted the case, the fewer things can be solved with confidence with a single sword. It can be said that there was no negligence in gaining knowledge, but politics is a different story.

To be honest, I thought there was nothing to do with it in my life.

But now two out of three women who say they like me are standing in the middle of the political arena.

“How did this happen…”

Did he move about twenty paces with the feeling that something… something was wrong? As the distance from the aristocratic house increased, Asilier appeared in the crowd. Just like when he disappeared, his appearance is as peaceful as ever, so I feel relieved.

“Did the story end sooner than expected?”

“Ummm. Should I say we were right in this or that way? We decided to help first.”

“Isn’t that an expression that has a lot to think about?”

“It’s actually like that…”

Still, it wasn’t something to share on the street, so I decided to go back to the mansion and explain it. First of all, I have to solve the tailing that stuck.

“What did you do with the tail?”

“It wasn’t the tail. Yen Tie? It was him.”

“Huh? Why is he?”

A completely unexpected person popped out and reflexively asked, and Asilie answered while taking off her hood and tidying up her hair.

“Should we say that we had similar thoughts? It’s clear that Eldy will be followed. In that case, he must have tried to find out who was behind it by tracking him in reverse. Rather, he found me and approached me first.”

He said he would do it for the price of his life, but it must have been nothing but empty words. Is this the position of the boss who sees new employees voluntarily working overtime…?

As I’ve never been a boss before, I’m very embarrassed.

“He seems to be an expert in his own way.”

“Even if my sister sees it, it is. Among those who serve the dream in the first place, there will be no one who is not an expert.”

Unlike me, who was unfamiliar with them, Ashley reacted as if she had heard about them. But this time, the part that surprised me was not that Mongsuni was an expert, but rather that Asilier was able to see through even the expert’s tailing.

Even in a city other than a forest, I was curious about what kind of elf hunters were these talented elves hunters who caught Asillier, but I didn’t ask because I thought I would meet them at least once if I caught and killed every slave hunter I saw in my life. . It wouldn’t be such a good memory anyway.

In the end, it was confirmed that it was a needless worry, so we were able to return to the mansion with a much more comfortable mind.
