Chapter 214 (1/2)
Escape
Last chapter su marks from the head of Rutina’s and Cassia’s family
”Grandmother Cassandra’s late husband, too, had a decorated life”
Because Grand on and on, Cassia joins in and follows up
Belonging to human tribe, Grandmother’s husband has already passed away
Well, she’s 107 years old, you know
”Quite right Despite being a hued to a certain noble fa done in by a labyrinth, they lost their peerage A co, my husband remonstrated in every possible way Consequently, he was cut off from the family Chased out, he arrived in the territory of our house Later, when he earned the peerage back, his relatives said whatnot to have hi an earnest man, he refused every approach He was the only person who adopted such an upright stance even though he had the mark to succeed ‘Such a fine ht,’ was this lady’s thought He had courage to enter the labyrinth; he was competent in terms of abilities; and he was endoith excellentto a noble family Cassia, you too better wash your hands of your ”
It seee if they fail to subjugate a labyrinth
Still, her story hasn’t served any purpose
It has
”Do you mean I’m not a fine article?”
”I didn’t mean that If mine were a worthless man, I would abandon hie of yourself, no?”
”Guu”
The Duke aly tips over
You’d best give up
Or, is it a duke’s obstinacy?
”shi+tty brat, although you have the potential of earning peerage soon, it’s not that si, you’ll be abandoned, too”
”Haa”
It’ll be better for me to just nod
So as not to end up like the Duke
”Choosing a hue the women of this fae fairly There’s that reason, too”
Belonging to different tribes, a human and an elf cannot bear a child
Because Grandmother doesn’t have children of her own, she oversees the family fairly
”I see”
”The head before randchild, garnering notoriety It would very likely have been their daughter’s turn for the head of family’s position However, in order to discipline , ‘if you’re suited, so be it’”
”No, it’s necessary to battle in the labyrinth”
One can simply not be too careful
I wonder if there really was no intention of taking it up
”Oh well Regardless of the way, if you live earnestly, I will not complain However, if you act excessively cruel and make her cry, I have a plan of my own”
Why do her eyes feel like they are glaring at me?
What’s the plan that you spoke of?
Itscary, so I’ll pass
Itscary
I repeated it twice to enificance
”I cannot even think ofher cry”
”To, downfall, slavery; these cases aren’t rare The head of a fale one of them”
”Such a thing?”
It must upset you a little, I think
Eloping, especially
Other than that, I soree
Theyin the labyrinth, too
”Currently, orries irl the father of whohter of a noble, ill her ht of as? With her father unknown, she won’t be received at an acceptable place while she cannot be left to grow sohter of the fa her happiness is the responsibility of the faives me a headache shi+tty brat, don’t you want to take her?”
There’s a country in conteitimate children are numerous This world doesn’t seem to have developed to that point yet
It’s probably difficult to be a noble’s wife
”Nope”
”I don’t have any particular issue with you being a hu her happy, even if you have God kno many mistresses”
Is this Grand to push me?
If that’s the case, then I’d like to
As you could guess, I cannot say that out loud
But she would surely be a beauty for she’s an elf
Well, if it’s about an elf, I have Rutina
Roxanne and the girls are there, too
Or it may likely be a bait in order to observe my reaction
Badger game, huh?
”No, really”
”Oh well Since it’s as such, I cannot irl’s ossip would there be”
”I see”
It doesn’t seeinally be impeached
Was it merely a character introduction?
”Did that kid drea in the Lords’ assembly?”
”Yes, Grandmother Cassandra”
”Such a thing If her man is adequately decorated, I have no objection”
Grand with her
A hurdle has unexpectedly been raised for me
Will it be alright?
”Haa”
”Do your best If you’re troubled with anything, I’ll be here to advise you It’s for the sake of the fahter, after all You can seek me if you need consultation”
”Well, till then”
As for the consultation, I think I’ll pass
As far as Grandmother is concerned, since Rutina is adorable and I’m not, I would be played with like the Duke if I approached tactlessly
A wise er
Respecting and keeping a distance seeht attitude toward this Grandmother
”Umu, I’m relieved that the interview is over without any hitch Shall we return then?”
Is the conversation over?
The Duke seems to want to escape, too
”Aah, that’s about it Brocken boy, I have a few things to discuss with you”
However, he has been sneaked around
”Well then, I-”
”Michio-dono?”
The Duke looks ateyes, but it cannot be helped
Begazu kyantobi chuzazu (Beggars can’t be choosers)
It’s an English proverb which ht to choose
To begin with, I have no relation to the Duke’s and Grandmother’s conversation whatsoever
”I’ll be waiting outside Speaking of outside, Gozer see with Michio-dono”
Cassia lendshand
Nice, Gozer
As expected of the model man of the world
I ondering as to why he didn’t join us inside Now I get why
”Well then”
Using the business with Gozer as an excuse, I escape
The Duke’s eyes are pitiful
I would like to tell the Duke the ination
You cannot escape froreat demon lord
However, I don’t go to Gozer right away
Because I had disbanded the party, I have lost all contact with Roxanne and the girls, so I’d better return first
Besides, the discussion with Gozer won’t be troublesome nor will it be restricted
If it were a discussion with the Duke, it would be troublesome
”Since it’s getting late, you should return for today You can go and talk to Gozer another day”
