CSWH Chapter 68: My Meeting with My Personal Attendant

My lessons at the Are

I waited for our arrival hoazed at the familiar scenery

The Anderson Marquis House and the Arh the mansions of nobles were concentrated near the palace in the Capital, so that may also just be a matter of course

The journey ended in no time at all and we arrived at the mansion Around that time, I noticed a disturbance in front of it

”……stop the carriage”

When I opened theand gave the coache ca at all

The cause of the uproar……were toatekeepers, ere looking up at the carriage that had stopped next to them with surprise

”Good work”

When I called out to the gatekeeper frohtened up

”Mellice-ojou-sama……! Welcome back!”

”Yes, I' on?”

When I turned to the gatekeeper and greeted him, he appeared troubled as his words faltered

”That's, u irls raised her voice

Looking carefully, both the girls had a coht and facial structure

While atekeeper hastily tried to cover the girl's mouth

……probably because normally, a noble would find fault with her actions

”Yes, that is so, but……what exactly is the problem?”

However, I do not have a nature that pays much heed to impoliteness, so I simply continued the conversation

”Please allow us to meet General Gazelle!”

”……Father, is it?”

I ondering what sort of wish they had……but to think they would desire to h, I have heard that due to Father's title of hero and his achievements, the citizens have a heavy sense of trust towards hist them are some crazy fans……is what I've heard from Kuroitsu-san

However, when I examined them carefully, their spirit wasn't that dreadful

”Why do you want to do that?”

”We admire General Gazelle and aspire to enlist the Army's 1st Division However, we heard that women cannot enter the Army……anted to know if there was some way, some way at all that we could enlist in the Army, and ca their i with the past me

Because I had once had the same desire, it was only natural

I closed my eyes for a short while and hesitated

And the decision I hed and opened the carriage door

”……please enter I a home today, but……I shall directly report that request to Father”

” ”Th-Thank you so orously lowered their heads

As they stayed like that and did not e, and it once again began to move

When we returned to the uide the two and ordered the Guard Corps to observe them while I returned to my room

It was at that time that Granny entered my room

”I heard about it, Ojou-sama It seems that you invited some suspicious people into the mansion?”

”Oh, I left their observation to the Guard Corps to ensure that they do not inflict any harm upon the people of the mansion I am sure that they will be able to take control if needed……although I a a needless precaution”

Their actions were filled with far too ed that their request was the real thing and invited the like that Why did Ojou-sa like……”

”……oh, did you think that I could reject them? I, who once aspired to enlist in the Arle and looked at Granny, she wasa fed up so back so easily on so that she said she'd do, even once”

”Fufufu, as expected of Granny So, will Father be returning to the irls are quiet lucky Just earlier, a notice that Master will be returning soon caood Then, Granny I will be standing witness to the irls, so could you help e?”

”Understood Well then, please excuse ed into the clothes that Granny helped me to pick out and headed over to the parlour

”Oh, Father……”

On my way there, I luckily bu, 'Oh, Father', you know? Geez, you did such an unnecessary thing……”

”Yes, that is true That is why I have coether with you”

”It's not so on helping every single person that wants to have a direct talk withthat”

”Then why have you helped those people……”

”Intuition”

The word that I plainly shot out caused Father to stiffen ht It is so theour And, have I ever done this for the other people who caht? You know that even if they come to me, it would be impossible for them to enlist in the Army”

When Father said that, it sounded like he was actually saying, ”nobody should know that better than yourself”……and it was true

And, that was precisely why I had invited the two of them

To learn why they persisted in that drea that, as well as the journey they have undergone to reach that point

”Indeed For now, please see and hear their ith those eyes and ears of yours”

”……only 5 minutes”

”I do believe that should be sufficient to listen to their story”
