“Then I have to tell them this, but I don’t think it’s very annoying as an adult …”

] Adopting his tired face, Yabu struck a bunch of wooden bills with his fingertips.

“Ehrenfest has long been a lower territory, and few adults know how to associate with an upper territory. Don’t you know it?”

That’s something that has been said to have been abandoned at the Aristocracy. We have just returned from the Aristocratic House and have all met.

“But in Ehrenfest, the number of aristocrats has decreased due to the influence of purging, and the aristocrats are interested in who will be in a vacant position due to the disappearance of the captured people. The first step is to organize the domestic affairs, rather than to associate with other territories. “

Since Gibe Gerlach and Gibe Vessel were executed, the remaining nobles were checking each other and who was going to be the next Gibe, trying to take a dominant position as little as possible. It seems that it is not in a state where you can turn your eyes to the territory.

“I know the children’s efforts. I’m going to understand that the dormitory swayed in the dormitory because they worked together to improve their rankings and improve their results. The adults cannot follow the momentum unfortunately, so for a while you should keep the ranks in the aristocracy or lower them to the 10th place, which is the consensus of the adults at Ehrenfest. ”

I couldn’t believe the words of the adopted father, and I opened my mouth. The adults tried to be suitable as a superior territory, so I didn’t think they would be told that I wanted them to lower their ranks, instead of saying they wanted me to keep them.

“… Is Ellenfest’s adult consensation lowering the rank?”

At the Aristocratic House, I worked hard and divided into teams to improve my performance. The faces of all those who were pleased by the teacher’s compliment on the good results of the classroom study emerged. And the appearance of the entourage who was struggling while trying by hand in search of how Ehrenfest should join the surrounding territory by joining the territory of the upper territory crosses the mind. Do I have to say that I want everyone to move down?

“Rose Mine, the will of the Raisegang nobles who are their support base”

dad standing behind adoptive father said so with a bitter face.

“Risegang noble family …?”

“Oh. Information provided by the Aristocratic House has led to the purging of the purge and almost wiped out the Arensbachian aristocrats who had held their main positions. The long-standing dreams and hopes were buried. Satisfied that he was able to leave, ex-Ghibe Reisegang went up the stairs to a much higher level. “

I was amazed at the unexpected words.

“My great-grandfather is much higher?”

“Rosemine was grateful and satisfied that God sent him for Reisegang. If possible, I would like Rosemine to become an aub.”

Reminds me of the great-grandfather, who was stiffened by resentment and hatred against Ahrensbach and Veronica. It seems a little relieved to talk to Villefried and make a promise, but is it different? Whether I am satisfied with my pursuit, my death, that it is thanks to me, or that I am asked to become an aub in my will, I feel a little humbled.

“That’s my father. What is the relationship between the former Gibe Reizegang and Ehrenfest?”

When Villefried said so with a jealous face, the foster mother was a little blinded.

“With the former Gibe Reisegang going up so far, the conflict with the old Veronicas was easier to resolve. You don’t have to move up to win Ahrensbach anymore. “ I have to focus on preparing the Ehrenfest, and as the whole Ehrenfest feels burdened, it seems that the nobility of the Raisegang believes that no one will be pleased with the ranking. ”

I heard that adults can’t follow, but I didn’t think it would be difficult to move up to the point that “nobody is happy.”

…… Isn’t it all the more that everyone worked hard at the Aristocrat, thinking about raising their rankings as much as possible?

It wasn’t for Raisegang that I raised Ehrenfest. It was just right for the goal of organizing the dormitory, and it was necessary to prevent Ferdinand from going to Ahrensbach. However, I don’t know how to react when I was asked by my adoptive father who said, “I want you to raise my rank,” and then “I want you to lower it to the 10th place if possible.”

…… Did Ferdinand say that Ehrenfest is in trouble because he is in Ahrensbach as an education clerk for Letizia?

“The only argument is that Rosemine is the only one who actively engages with the higher territories and has a connection with the royal family. If he refrains from speaking, Ehrenfest will be prevented from moving up any further. It has been said among the nobles that it was dear, and it was too conspicuous, continued to take the best and deepened friendship with the royal family. An internal conflict occurs. I want you to be very careful with your actions. “

Apparently I shouldn’t have done my best. Speaking of which, I feel that Ferdinand didn’t give up. Is that because I had trouble with Ehrenfest? As soon as that thought passed, the spectacle seen from the stage that I was glad to receive the award was fading in an instant.

“Givets who have spoken directly know that they don’t want aub, but for the nobles who don’t, it seems that he wants aub. It must be trusted where you say there is no action, but you can only show by action that Rosemine is not going to Abu. ”

…… In other words, in order not to cause strange confusion around Aub, is it better for me not to show up in front of the nobility now? Is it better not to be me?

¡Responsibility for work, feelings to work hard, and something important is missing. I want to quit in the library so that I don’t do anything extra.

“… That’s just right. If you don’t have the opportunity to bring aristocrats into your faction while giving rewards or punishment, your eyes will change.” It ’s up to Abu ’s adoptive father and the next Aub ’s brother, Villefried, to arrange the rough Ehrenfest and seize the nobility. ”

I’m really good because I don’t want to do anything to close my own library or a temple near the downtown. When she smiled, she fried with a dazzling smile that looked at the goal.

“Yeah, I want to focus on the castle and aristocratic rulers and want to be recognized as the next Aub”

…… While Mr. Villefried was told that nobody was pleased with the efforts of the Aristocracy, did you think anything? Did you tell me to go down the ranking that I did my best?

Why should I have heard the same words and have a smile full of hope so far? It’s strange and can’t be helped. While thinking so, I will release what I have.

“I have copied the stage design for the spring ritual at the Aristocratic Library, so please use it for the faction of the adoptive father and the brother of Villefried”

“I just want to get rid of projects that are likely to be called to the castle as soon as possible, but Mr. Villefried was glad that it was saved.

“I am very helpful because I can focus on the temple and the downtown area.”

I declared that both sides would benefit, and I declared “I will be drawn to the temple,” but my adoptive father shook his head with a troubled face.

“No, I want them to fill the hole in Florenzia”

It seems that she wants to assist her foster mother’s work while gathering female nobility through socializing women such as tea parties while setting up Vilfleet as a fiance. To be honest, now that Ferdinand has disappeared, there is no other person who can consult about temple work, and I am worried about whether I can turn the temple alone, but even my foster mother’s work is difficult. And now that you don’t have to work hard at the Aristocratic House, you can’t be motivated for a cumbersome tea party.

…… Maybe it would be just right for me to fail in socializing to lower the rankings?

“I believe that the role of my fiancée, Wilfried’s fiancée, would be the role that I would play, but isn’t that social and work better suited for Charlotte? I think it ’s better to focus on the merchant’s efforts. ”

It is impossible to neglect to be ready to accept merchants from other territories. If the merchants of other territories show that the inside of Ehrenfest is rough, it should have a great influence on future territorial relations. When I insisted that this, the adoptive father thought a little and showed me “Oh, yes”.

… I can still do my best for everyone in downtown.

While remembering his promise with his father, he was enthusiastic about flying and wielding his foster father with a frightening face.

“Don’t make a sweet face to Rosemine, my father. Shouldn’t we have to rush to gain social experience for next year’s aristocracy?”

Why do I need to rush to gain social experience when I no longer need to worry about the ranks of the aristocracy? I hid my head like a princess.

“Brother Villefleet, who will exchange for temple work and commercial guilds? It ’s impossible to carry everything.”

I have just taken over the temple work, and the commercial relations are not yet nurtured by civilians who can get the merchant’s will. There can be no substitutes, even though there is no reliance on a civilian who feels seriously regretful that Yustox is gone.

“While the temple work has not yet been done, the civilian guilds had previously been handled by civilians. It should be left to the civilian. It is better to gain social experience for next year’s aristocratic house. It ’s very important. ”

I was able to adjust the aristocratic circumstances and merchant reality by intervening and accept the merchants of other territories while identifying the limits, but I was left to the former civilian Is it considered? It is obvious that it will be difficult to play without thinking about the ordinary people’s circumstances.

“Who is the civilian that Mr. Villefried says? Can’t cope with the fact that the rank of the territory has risen, so I can do the same job as before with the consciousness of the lower territory Even in Hartmut, who can talk with the commoners in the downtown area, the business relationship is still lacking in knowledge and experience, and it is difficult to negotiate unless I am present, but commercial negotiations It was my first time that a civilian who could be entrusted with me was brought up. “

When I said that I would like to be close to me if I was so good, Villefried swallowed my eyes, “That’s it …”. It doesn’t seem to be an excellent civilian that I don’t know.

When I was jealous of Villefried, Charlotte sighed as if he was amazed, “I can understand the opinion that your brother wants your sister to socialize, but now she is I think his opinion is correct. ”

“If you socialize with an aristocratic woman, I will be replaced, but no one will be able to replace the role in the temple or the cooperation with the merchant. So I will replace my mother.” 19459002]

…… Charlotte is kind and too good! I was seriously thinking about pulling to the library and the temple.

I was too dazzled by Charlotte’s reliance that he said he would be socializing for aristocratic women, and I couldn’t look at Charlotte very much.

“It is top priority to have Charlotte and Rosemine gain social experience as a nobleman, because the report from the Aristocratic House is the shortest part of Rosemine now…

I was gently distracted by the words of my foster mother, who seemed to have been hurt by reports from the Aristocracy. However, after being struck by Charlotte, she becomes slightly uncomfortable with a slight eyebrow, and after looking at me, Villefried, the adoptive father, and the adoptive mother in turn, he drops his gaze.

“I don’t think my sister’s social experience is a top priority. Fathers and mothers are fine and young enough to have new children. Isn’t there more than a decade before I can become Aube and let my sister take full responsibility for socializing as the first wife? ”

When Charlotte raised his face, he compared foster fathers, foster mothers and Villefried with critical indigo eyes.

“While the uncle was missing, temple work, management of an orphanage where the number of people increased due to cleaning, negotiations with merchants, transportation of the printing business and Gutenberg. If you are already working more than a full-fledged adult at work, ask for efforts to gain social experience while denying your sister’s efforts at the Aristocratic House, or fill the hole of a pregnant mother. I think it ’s wrong to ask for a burden ”

… Charlotte.

] I was very happy to be angry for me, and the words of Charlotte were filled in the part that was missing and empty. I felt like I was biting as I gradually filled with positive feelings.

… Yeah. I can do my best.

Contrary to my delight, everyone in the conference room looked at not only Villefried but also Charlotte, who had criticized the tone of Aub and his wife. However, Charlotte is quiet and speaks her opinion.

“Did you know that the inside of Ehrenfest is going to be hard, but instead of scolding the second wife who seems to support Ehrenfest together, is it your father that got your mother pregnant? Shouldn’t the father bear the burden of filling his mother ’s hole? ”

In my case, it was a romantic marriage rather than an agreed politics marriage, but I thought that it was inevitable that I would avoid the second wife for the circumstances of the territory. Regardless of whether or not there is a baby, I feel that it was good.

However, Charlotte, who is raised as a genuine clan of lords, seems to have a fundamentally different way of thinking about her second wife. He turned his indigo eyes to reveal contempt.

“Hey, father. If mother had a baby, what would happen to Greschel’s Entoviceln? According to Greschel’s aides, did you plan to do this spring?”

Entwickeln is a witchcraft that requires so much magic that the lords’ family has to put all of their magical powers while using recovery drugs. The Greschel township is smaller than the town of Ehrenfest, but it still requires a lot of magic. If Ferdinand is gone and the foster mother becomes pregnant and uses magic for her baby, it’s hard to do Envyckeln this spring.

“… difficult to do in spring, but should be done in autumn”

“Because you can’t tolerate failure as long as you use Entwickeln to maintain it, Greschel’s nobles seem to be very nervous, but change the schedule and welcome merchants the next summer Can you finish the preparations? ”

Perhaps I received a consultation from a Greschel native. Charlotte’s eyes are serious about his father’s words to change the schedule.

“I don’t want to see my entourage feeling painful. Is there a Greschel in my sister’s entourage? Is it okay to change the schedule for Entovickeln? What do you think of older sisters familiar with downtown and merchants? “

Charlotte was staring at me uneasy, and I moved my head desperately to meet Charlotte’s expectations. There is Brünnhilde near me, so I often hear Greschel.

…… I don’t mean you aren’t ready to welcome merchants.

Greschel trained craftsmen at Ehrenfest when introducing the paper and printing industries. At that time, Gutenberg and craftsmen are making connections, and stores that handle paper and books can be prepared immediately by interacting with the printing association. It seems that they are also negotiating with Brünnhilde to increase the number of hair ornament stores through the Gilberta Company.

However, there are not enough accommodations to accept merchants, and the downtown area is still dirty. To make up for it, Entwickeln is needed.

“The store preparation seems to be progressing, but construction of the accommodation and maintenance after cleaning the town is a problem. Especially, the accommodation is interior, securing human resources and education …. Cologne ’s rescheduling is pretty tough. ”

Charlotte sang in my words.

“Your sister seems to be like that, too. It took me about two years to prepare my room in the north. I chose a professional craftsman and asked for a rug, curtain, and furniture. It ’s not easy to see Envy Vickern fall in time for next summer ”

As Charlotte says, Entwickeln is only a white building with no doors, window frames or furniture. Even considering the experience from the time of making an Italian restaurant, it takes a long time to complete the work after requesting a woodworking workshop.

… I don’t really need two years.

When I was thinking about how I could save the time, I opened my mouth comparing Villefried’s vigorous Charlotte and his frightened foster mother.

“But Charlotte, I have to change my schedule. I can’t let my mother join Envickeln who needs a lot of magic. It’s too dangerous.”

“I know, brother, but I thought that the lords wouldn’t blame Greschel because of the change of schedule. Should we avoid repelling? ”

At this point, you should not push Gregshel into a difficult task and cause a rebound of the Rizegang. What Charlotte says is correct. If you work with the foster father’s way of pushing from top to bottom as before, it will be easy to fall into trouble.

“Don’t let the Father sign any more contracts with other territories at the lord meeting to avoid being repulsed by Greischel and other Raisegang nobles.”

Advocates and his entourage had a bitter face in Charlotte’s words. It is because they are asked about this year’s trading quota at the lord meeting and respond to them. The situation that you have to refuse even though you are asked for a connection is quite tight. In particular, Ehrenfest, which has risen sharply, wants to go around so as not to buy rebellion from other territories.

…… It’s not good to keep waiting for other territories forever. I’m afraid of other areas.

The current Ehrenfest must satisfy both the other territories and the nobility within the territory. If this is a bad effect, I may have to take responsibility.

“Father, it’s important to organize aristocrats in the territory, but the relationship with other territories is also important, isn’t it?”

“Ah”

“So I think the direction to make Greschel available in the summer of next year can be left as it is. For that purpose, it is necessary to do it on the initiative of Aube instead of leaving it to Gibe Greschel.” 19459002]

It will be difficult because it tries to push responsibility down. Since it is the lord who has decided to accept merchants from other territories, the lord should move responsibly. Greschel should not be dissatisfied if the failure is the responsibility of the lord. The adoptive father and the adoptive mother looked away at my remarks.

“What do you suddenly say, Rosemine?”

“Would Greschel be held responsible for Aub Ehrenfest?”

“Yes. The town of Ehrenfest is not enough to welcome merchants from other territories, so I borrow a Greschel. If Aub is responsible for preparing facilities for Greschel Will Charlotte’s worry disappear? “

Charlotte is worried about Greschel’s failure and responsibilities due to a change of schedule, and that the inside of Ehrenfest is shaken with a backlash. So if I assume full responsibility, I think most of my worries will disappear.

‘Charlotte says in my words,“ I am worried that my sister ’s work will increase. ” Stare at whether to put out. After adopting Charlotte’s quiet and harsh line of sights, his adoptive father became a rosy face, saying “Rose Mine…”.

“Because we are going to change the schedule significantly, we will need a generous help from Aube. It’s not enough to leave it to Greschel alone, but he will be responsible for providing most of the money and magic. I don’t think it’s impossible if you assume that it is a premise. “

“What are you going to do?”

Abandoned her face, the adopted father embarked himself with interest. I started to explain because I was very interested.

“The civilian will make a detailed blueprint for Entwickeln? Just the amount of the accommodation is fine. Copy the blueprint so that the exact dimensions are known, and I ordered the interiors of each room, such as doors and window frames, from a separate woodworking studio before cologne. “

…… The exclusive system is in the way to get the numbers quickly.

For craftsmen in downtown, this is an important system for getting a job, but it is very difficult when you want to do a big business at once.

“If you have a single room in a single studio, it will be finished in about half a year. If you give notice to give priority to doors and window frames, doors and window frames immediately after Entwickeln. You wo n’t be cut out if you give a reward to the workshop that made a wonderful interior and let the craftsmen compete. ”

If there are doors and windows, it is possible to arrange the interior during the winter, but without it snow will get in and it will be difficult.

“Greschel’s workshops are not enough, so we have to place orders for Gibe’s workshops around Greschel, as well as the downtown area of ​​Ehrenfest. That ’s why I wanted to do it. ”

“Fum …”

Adoptive father’s dark green eyes shone shiningly. I grinned to the face where I found the chance to win.

“And then the problem is furniture, but if Aub is responsible, furniture preparation is very easy.”

This also requires a woodworking workshop, but if you want to get all the furniture, it will not be in time for next summer.訪れるのは上位領地の中でも豪商ですから目も肥えているので、生半可な物では笑われる可能性もある。

「どうするつもりだ?」

「粛清でお取り潰しになった貴族達の館の責任者はアウブでしょう? 家具を接収して宿泊施設へ回すというのはどうでしょう? 部屋ごとに担当する工房が違うのですから、家具も部屋ごとに趣が違ったところで問題ないと思いますし、家具の購入費が大幅に削減できます」

これもアウブが責任者でなければ、全て購入しなければならない物だ。宿泊施設で使用すれば、家具を残しておけば必要になる管理費や他の者に下げ渡すための面倒な手続きも全てカットできる。

「宿泊施設に使う家具は、子供達の私物や教育に必要な物と違って、後々問題にはならないでしょう?」

連座を免れた子供達は孤児院、城の子供部屋、寮のどこかで暮らすことになる。備え付けの家具があるので、大きな家具がいくつも必要になるわけではない。

「後は人材の教育ですけれど、こちらは下町の商人達とも話をして、グレッシェルから宿泊施設で働かせる予定の者をエーレンフェストの宿泊施設で教育すれば良いと思うのです」

調整や移動が大変だけれど、エーレンフェストの下町にとっては忙しい時期に人手が増えるわけだし、グレッシェルにとっては半年ほど実際の商人達を相手にしながら実地研修ができるのは、悪いことではないと思う。

「商人との調整はわたくしのお仕事ですから、任せくださっても良いですよ。……養父様が責任者になるのが前提ですけれど」

「……わかった。やろう」

養父様が頷き、養母様は心配そうに養父様とわたしを見比べる。シャルロッテは「結局、お姉様のお仕事が増えているではありませんか」と呟き、ヴィルフリートは唇を引き結んで俯いた。

「シャルロッテ、心配してくれてありがとう。でも、わたくしは表に出ないように言われているので、提案するだけなのです。実行するのは養父様ですよ」

わたしがフフッと笑うと、シャルロッテは少し目を見張った後、クスクスと楽しそうな笑みを浮かべた。

……それに、これで神殿に引き籠れるし、下町の皆と会える回数が増えるんだよね。計画通り!

そこに、これまでは発言せずにじっと聞いていたメルヒオールがバッと手を挙げた。

「姉上、私にできることはありますか? 私もエーレンフェストの役に立ちたいです」

「……そうですね。では、メルヒオールはわたくしのお手伝いをしてくれませんか?」

「もちろんです。何をすればよいですか?」

明るい笑顔の返事にわたしはニッコリと笑う。

正直なところ、まだメルヒオールにできることはほとんどない。魔力の扱いも練習していないので、魔力供給もできないし、神事に連れ回すのも難しい。けれど、そのやる気は伸ばしてあげるのが一番だし、メルヒオールにできることは少なくても、常に周囲にいる側近にできることは色々とある。

……神殿の仕事を押し付け……もとい、一緒に頑張ってくれる人材、ゲットだよ!

「メルヒオールには神殿業務のお勉強をしてもらいます。わたくしが成人するまでにメルヒオールには神殿長としての役割ができなければ困るでしょう?」

粛清の影響で更に青色神官が減っているのに、成人と同時にわたしと側近が神殿から一気にいなくなれば、エーレンフェストの神殿はその時点で破綻する。後継者の育成は必須だ。

……わたしが図書館に出入りする時間を作るためにも、ね。

「側近も含めてメルヒオールの教育を引き受けます」

「ローゼマイン、それは将来の不安の種になる気がするのだが……」

わたしがメルヒオールの教育をすることに養父様が困った顔をしたけれど、神殿業務の引継ぎはいずれしなければならないことだ。人材は不足しているのだから、有効活用するべきである。

「あの、ローゼマイン様。洗礼式を終えたばかりのメルヒオール様を神殿に向かわせるのですか?」

メルヒオールの側近、特に年嵩の者は顔に出していないものの、乗り気ではないようだ。けれど、わたしはせっかく神殿で使えそうな貴重な人材を手放す気はない。

「あら、わたくしは神殿で育ったとはいえ、洗礼式でアウブと養子縁組をして、その直後から引継ぎ期間も何もなく神殿長に就任しましたもの。フェルディナンド様という後見人が支えてくださったからですけれど、引継ぎ期間はあった方が良いと思います。どんなに長くても、わたくしが成人するまでの三年ほどしか期間はないのですから」

わたしの言葉にメルヒオールはハッとしたようにわたしと自分の側近を見比べた。そして、「三年……」と小さく呟く。

「父上、私は神殿でローゼマイン姉上のお手伝いをしたいと思います。この城ではまだできることがないけれど、私も領主候補生ですからお役目が欲しいです」

メルヒオールの真っ直ぐなお願いに養父様は最終的に折れた。

「……わかった。メルヒオールとその側近には神殿へ向かうことを命じる」

メルヒオールの年嵩の側近は苦い顔をしたけれど、護衛騎士は興味深そうな顔になったのがわかった。ローゼマイン式の魔力圧縮に加えて、加護の増加についても貴族院から戻って来た学生の側近達から話が出ているのだろう。

「一緒に頑張りましょうね、メルヒオール」

“Hey!”
