Some people had unexpected reasons for wanting to work
To put it simply, Number 9 was looking for a man?
It wasn’t like there were any rules against this. And I suppose such a thing might be good for the village…
“Uhh…I’m sorry. That is not something I considered when looking at the village. And so I cannot answer your question.”
“I see… Well, maybe there will be someone good in this crowd. But I had high hopes for the village… After all, I will be more likely to be accepted that way, right?”
“Uh…perhaps…”
I really did not know how to answer her questions. She seemed like a city person who had romantic ideas of living in the countryside.
Though, it may not end up being the kind of life she wanted. I heard stories of people who ended up regretting it.
“Hoho. What a delightful young lady. As long as you do your work properly, you can spend the rest of your time as you wish. But be careful, as such things can sometimes lead to your ruin.”
“I know that. I am not thinking about jumping into anything lightly. I am just saying that I want to work and marry a nice man and have a family. And some people still laugh at me.”“As long as you are serious, I don’t think it is anything to laugh about. What about you, Mr. Takumi?”
“Uh, me…? Well…I don’t see why anyone would complain about that. As long as you are not fighting over someone or stealing…”
When speaking to Mr. Ekenhart and Sebastian, I had refused to give a definitive answer about Claire. And this kind of felt like Sebastian was criticizing me.
Well, perhaps it was just in my head.
“I would not do that. I have no interest in other people’s things.”
“Hoho. Then what about this Mr. Takumi. He is serious and kind. And will soon have a thriving business. He will not be free for long.”
“What!?”
Sebastian!?
“Oh, no… Someone who owns a Silver Fenrir and is backed by the duke…is not a good fit for me.”
“Really? How unfortunate…”
“Please stop looking disappointed… Uh, if you really are interested in marrying in Range village, I suggest you get to know the people while you work first. And then you can get a feet for how you would fit in? Though, I’m sure the men will notice you soon enough.”
“Yes, I understand. And thank you for the compliment.”
“Uhh, are there any other questions then…?”
“Yes, I have a question.”
“Go ahead, Number 20…”
We then answered Number 20’s question, and others after that until there was no one left…
“So, that will be the end of this interview. Everyone, thank you for your time…”
Said Sebastian, and everyone got to their feet and bowed.
“Hya! Oh-oh-oh…phew… Ah, excuse me!”
While the butlers and Ms. Lyra led everyone out of the room, Number 38…the woman who had tripped and fallen in front of the building, lost her balance yet again. However, she managed to catch herself, so that she did not fall on her face this time…
