6 Stand Materialize
TN : 6/15
===
In the end, I concluded that it was impossible for me to exercise my cheat in domestic affairs in this world.
After all, how could I do that when the quality of life in this world was not worse than that of my previous life? I meant, in this world, there existed magic tools that made full use of enchanted magic crystals.
This world was practically overflowing with it. For example, the kitchen. It was properly equipped with a gas stove, refrigerator, and oven. Heck, it was even outfitted with a ventilation fan. It was not limited to the kitchen too.
There existed a washing machine that was able to do its job to purify the clothes from filth with little noise as well. On top of that, I also found out the maids’ brassiere and pants that were drying in the shade, hidden from unwanted eyes in the shadow.
Well, though I said it was hidden, it still wasn’t concealed enough from my eyes who was in the middle of playing hide and seek. Anyway, I found that this world had brassiere and pants too, one that was similar to my past life’s version.
Then again, it shouldn’t surprise me since my brief was also a commercial product and not an overly luxurious one at that. And the reason why I knew this… well, because no matter how you looked at it, every piece of clothing was definitely the work of sewing machines. There was no sense of customization when I looked at the stitching.
By the way, I was pretty sure that the sewing machine is a magic tool as well. As such, I had to admit this. The level of sewing skill and the manufactured magic tools in this world were in no way inferior to the power of science in modern day Japan.
Furthermore, considering that chess and reversi existed in this place, I had a certain bold guess. Since the games existed, then it wouldn’t be strange if other forms of entertainment existed as well. For example, a tramp house or casino-like gambling house.
I meant, how could I not consider that? After all, even the food was using ingredients that were the same like the one I often saw in Japan. There were even plenty of seasonings like salt, pepper, sugar, herbs, ketchup, mayonnaise, and many other condiments!
Not to mention that, just the other day, I saw Kevin eating soy sauce flavored rice-cracker! And I had even heard that miso ramen existed here! All of these proved that this world was in no way lacking compared to modern Japan.
Despite the fact that this allowed me to feel closer to this world, the thought that this situation was very confusing also ruled my mind. What the hell was wrong with this world? How come the taste of those foods, flavorings, and ingredients was so similar to the one I was used to back in my past life?
Did this fact mean that anything that was possible in the modern world, say Japan, was also possible in this world?
Well, I wouldn’t discount this fact at all. After all, with the mass production of various magic tools, I was sure that the existence of a modern transportation system and infrastructure was surely present as well.
In fact, perhaps the only area they had yet to develop was something equivalent to the IT industry and communication industry or even the 4th industrial revolution.
Then again, though it seemed that they had yet to create TV and radio, it might be because these things were related to national secrets. After all, wasn’t that how it was like in isekai?
Heck, if this was like an RPG game, then communication via magic must have existed. After all, magic did exist in this world. So, it should have been developed already. Only, it was exclusive to the upper-class and yet to be used by common people.
In that vein of thought, I was sure that magic train and magic car existed too.
… This… was basically the same as when I was still living in Japan, huh.
The civilization had already matured.
Thus, I deemed that domestic affair cheat was pretty much unnecessary at this point.
Well, aside from that, the thing that had been in my mind was on my swordsmanship training.
Considering the evidence that this world’s civilization was no less advanced than modern Japan, I wondered why swords were still prevalent in this world. Was it because there was no gun and that was why I had never heard about the danger and importance of guns?
Or was it something else? For example, it did exist, but for one reason or another, the government decided to restrict it. I meant, it could potentially replace magic, couldn’t it?
Anyway, another thing that surprised me was the government. Because, even though the civilization level approached that of the modern days on earth, the government system was still that of monarchy for some reason.
I meant, usually, there should already be a seed of democracy that sprouted with such developed civilization. If this was the case, I wouldn’t be surprised. However, we were still in monarchy! Was it because this kingdom is a constitutional monarchy I wonder?
Eh, nevermind. I shook the wandering thought away from my mind. This matter did not concern me in the slightest after all.
Well now, I wonder what should I do in this world, then?
I suppose, for the time being, I should properly train to inherit the position as the next head of marquiss family from my father and then I would govern my future territory.
Still, the level of this civilization had severely restricted my method to make easy money. After all, the level of basic education of this world should be fairly high to be able to advance to this stage.
Moreover, since there was magic, a school that taught us the basics for magic should also exist! With that, at the very least, even if I was inept at magic, I wouldn’t be regarded as a useless-jobless adult since I had basic knowledge of magic and magecraft from my past!
Well, aiming for graduating with the highest grade in the educational institute in this world aside, I would have to learn how to act like a proper noble son as well.
However, there was a problem with this plan. It was a simple problem really, but it was a deadly one because the fact was… I was stupid.
It was evident from how my scores in my previous life were like. I had only ever gained below the average scores since I hated studying in the first place. And yet, despite my lacking brain, I was born as the eldest son of a noble family? Didn’t this mean that I’m going to be forced to manage the territory when I assume the head of house position then?!
""
Because I got this feeling that, even with the memory of my previous life with me, I still wouldn’t be able to keep up with the lessons in this world.
Yet I didn’t want to be known as a stupid noble either.
No. I refused. I didn’t want to become those self-centered and stupid noble I always read about.
YES, YOU HEARD ME, I REFUSED TO BECOME THAT KIND OF DANGEROUS CHARACTER!!!
No matter how handsome I would become in the future, I was nothing more than a loser if I was reduced to become that kind of character. After all, even the stupid me might laugh if I saw that kind of person. I would even point my finger at them. So, I absolutely wouldn’t become stupid and self-centered noble. No WAY.
Haaa… but if I didn’t want to become such a character… the first thing I should do was to study… I guess I should start with learning how to manage the territory.
Even though I might have ended up having no idea on what the teacher was talking about… or even having no idea about what I should ask… Don’t underestimate this stupid former commoner!
Anyway, even if I couldn’t develop my territory, I could still maintain it as long as I had excellent subordinates with me.
… Wait, no. It was too soon to give up. Don’t give up, me! Fight!
In the end, after all the thinking I had done, I learned that education was important no matter in which world you are. If I remembered it correctly, this corresponded to the saying ‘knowledge is an extremely light asset’ … right?
Anyhow, let’s study as much as possible from now on to decrease the burden for my future self.
Yosh, since I had decided, let’s set the aim. Hmm, alright, let’s become as smart as father! What? There was nothing wrong with using my father as standard… right?
I WILL DEFINITELY DO I~T!!!
I swore upon the brassiere and pants that were hanged in this place. At that time…
“I found you, Young Master… Why are you raising your fist?”
DAMMIT, HE FOUND ME!
And here I thought Kevin was the wimpy type, who didn’t have the courage to step into this sanctuary.
“I never expect you are actually hiding in this kind of place, Young Master. Well, Young Master is a man too after all.”
Kevin said as he looked at the hanging brassiere and pants with a playful smile on his face. However, I was not paying him any attention at all.
Uhm, Kevin. Behind you, behind you. You end up bringing people along with you to this place, you dummy. I told him with my eyes. Alas, he didn’t seem to realize my eye message.
“Oh my, I wonder what are these two gentlemen doing in this place?” A young maid said with a pleasant smile on her face. However, I somehow saw a hannya-like stand materializing behind her for some reason. [TL : Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure reference]
And it was precisely that non-existent stand that prevented Kevin and I from escaping.
In the end, both of us got a mouthful of scolding from Martha and the other maids. Alas, while I was fine after some time, poor Kevin got completely ignored for a while after that.
It’s… not my fault, right?
.
..
…
Sorry, Kevin.
I ended up genuflecting to ask for his forgiveness after I saw Kevin’s eyes looking like a dead fish’s eyes on the third day since he received such treatment from the maids
