"Ha-ha-ha!"

"Viscount Galli, what can I do for you?"

No, it's nothing. No, it's just that you should be on your guard.

I was amused by the stares of respect, admiration, envy, awe, and fear that I haven't felt from these fools in a long time. Normally, I would not pay attention to the gazes of the lower classes, but I have become sensitive to them due to the long hardships I have endured.  

Leave it to me. Our troops are the elite of the national army. We will protect you flawlessly.

"Mm. I'll let your father know how he's doing.

The prestige of the Marquise de Galli moves even the national army. Yes, the next head of the Marquise de Galli is the Dubliner. I will crush my uncle to perfection and let the whole country know it.

Surrounded by an army of 500 men, he heads for the house, the envy of all. My grandfather is watching us, so it won't matter if he escapes, but it would be easier to capture him at the house anyway. Let's hurry him up a bit.

"Hey, I'm sure word has spread far enough that I've returned to King's Landing. I'll speed up to raid the villa!"

"Viscount Galli, this is the royal capital, it would be unwise to increase the speed.

"Hmm? You are the national army, aren't you? Why would it be a bad idea to speed up?"

"The mission we have been entrusted with is to bring the Marquise de Galli safely to their residence. It is part of our mission to ensure their safety when they arrive at the residence, but if they run and cause a commotion in King's Landing, they may even be suspected of treason.

I don't like to be suspected of treason, even if I am the Marquise de Galli. Even my grandfather, who has influence in the military as a member of the Grandfather's inner circle, couldn't have made such arrangements, could he? You said you made arrangements in secret. Well then, let's proceed slowly and make our return to King's Landing be engraved on the city's walls.

**

"Hm, your uncle hasn't left the house, has he?"

The grand old house of the Marquise is silent, not a sound. But why is there not even a gatekeeper?

"Without a doubt."

So you are unaware of our activities?

It's a shameful thing to be a member of the Galli family. Did they think we were dead and let their guard down? Well, either way, he was not strong enough to carry the glorious Marquise de Galli on his shoulders.

"No, the guards reported that some of them entered the house in a hurry. After that, the house became noisy, so I assume that they know that you two have returned.

I see, so they are aware of us. If there is now a commotion in the house, are they prepared to intercept us?

"Hmm, you're going to strike back?"

No, I don't think so. When Viscount Galli returns with his army, any resistance could be considered treason. We can't be too careful, but he will probably welcome them quietly, won't he?

Ugh, if that's the case, I won't be able to play an active role. If I am to be welcomed in peacefully, I will rush in at once and restrain them. Then my greatness will spread a little to my uncles and the people!

"Hey, we're going in at once! If you see your uncle Jotaro, don't worry about him. Beat him up and take him prisoner! But don't kill him!

"Wait, Mr. Dublin. The soldiers my grandfather has arranged for you are here to protect you and Master Dublin. If they resist, we will let them fight, but it is not a good idea for us to charge at them.

Hmm, I remember the soldier who just told me the same thing. If my father told me not to meddle too much, but I did, does that mean that charging is a bad idea?

"...... But, old man! If I go home like a normal person, the world will not know how great I am.

"Mr. Dublin. The next head of the glorious House of the Marquise de Galli mustn't dwell on small achievements. Even the treatment of Dale and the others after this will be enough to let King's Landing know of the Marquise de Galli's prestige.

You're right, but I'm not convinced. My uncle should have stood up to them instead of being so quiet. You're so thoughtless. If he'd at least run away, we could've easily buried him in the dark.

Brother!

"Mnh-mnh, Davutos, Davushin."

You've come at last with a small army. Too late. This is why my uncles have the Marquise de Galli at their mercy.

And I heard that he was so absorbed in the struggle for succession that he neglected to search for us. After we've punished my uncle, we'll have to re-educate them as well.

Brother?

What the hell? Why are you tilting your head at me?

"What's wrong?"

No, no, it's a pleasure to meet you. Where is your father?

"Well, your father will return slowly after he finishes cleaning the house. I'll start cleaning now, so you guys watch from there."

"Oh, no! I will help you!

"Brother, this Dabushin will work as hard as he can for you!"

Why do these guys look so desperate? ...... Well, you must be excited by the return of your great brother. Combined with their own inability to win against their uncles, they must feel as if I, their respected brother, am their savior.

They are nothing more than my spares, but they seem to have a cute side to them. I may take care of them a little from now on.

"Well, I'm glad that you think of my brother. But I'm no match for your uncles. You can watch your brother's greatness at your leisure. And how is my squire? I thought I was working with you guys."

"You mean your brother's first squire?"

Yes.

Why do they look so delicate?

"Sir, sir. Your first squire was looking for you desperately at first but by the time we came to King's Landing he was already in love with your uncle. It seems that he gave his brother's property to my uncle in order to get to him.

"What? He betrayed us!"

And they gave my property to my uncle. ...... is unforgivable. He had the honor of serving me. If I were in danger, you would risk your life for me. And if you could not save me, the proper thing for a squire to do would be to commit suicide. But you betrayed me. .......

"d*mn you, you ungrateful bastard! Oh, well. He's just the third son of a lowly nobleman who doesn't know how to serve a nobleman. He must be made to know whom he has betrayed.

My uncles cannot be tortured immediately, and it will take time to dredge up those who have been disrespectful to us during our travels. For that and all the others, I will give hell to him who betrayed me. My wealth will be returned to me as soon as I capture my uncles.

"Mentor! Is the traitor in the house?

"Oh, he seems to be a very astute little fellow. The man guarding the house says he slipped out of the house unnoticed after the disturbance. But don't worry. We have a guard on the house to watch for anyone who might have slipped out.

"So ...... dubtos, dubsin. I have a job for you. Capture the traitor and bring him to me. Do not kill them. I will personally remind them of whom they betrayed."

I would like to capture him myself, but my uncles are my priority right now.

I'll make sure of it, sir.

Leave it to me.

"Mm. I'm counting on you. Well, we can't sit around here and keep Father waiting. Let's get the hell out of here! Open the gate!

**

"Nuh! Father's statue is missing!

In the middle of the road from the gate to the house, a huge statue was erected to commemorate your father's greatness. Uncle, the sight of your father frightened you so much that you took the statue down. Your uncle's treason is clear from this. I'll make sure he goes to hell. We arrive at the house confirming Uncle Hanko's outrage and reaffirming his guilt.

"Dublin, you're alive. I am happy! Oh, it must have been hard for you to lose so much weight."

Hm? Why does your uncle greet me with a smile? Isn't it normal to rattle and shake and beg for mercy from me?

"Uncle, you've been doing a lot of things while we've been gone. Now that we're back, you know there's no excuse. Prepare yourself!

"Prepared? What do you mean? I have been desperately supporting the Marquise de Galli since my brother and Dublin went missing."

Hmm? Why are you not upset by my wonderful ultimatum? Did your uncle not plot to take over the Marquise de Galli? ...... No, this is a trap of your cunning uncle. He is a descendant of the Marquise de Galli, even if he is a branch of the same family. He is not to be underestimated.

You're so brazen. Then why did they take down the statue of your father? That would be the smoking gun of your uncle's plot to take over the Marquise de Galli."

"Ah, that statue. I've been thinking a lot about it since your brother went missing. So I decided to move the statue to a different location and make a bigger statue that is more appropriate for you and Dublin, to pray for your return.

Nuh-uh? A fine statue of my father and I? Was your uncle's plot to take over the Galli family a misunderstanding?

"Mr. Dublin. Mr. Dale did indeed order an adamantite statue. But he did not order a statue of the boy and Master Dublin, but of Master Dale. When you fought with Davutos and Davosin and asked the king for permission to take over the Marquise of Galli, it is obvious that you were planning to take over the Marquise of Galli.

I was almost fooled. I knew your uncle was not to be underestimated.

"Mentor! My lord, why are you interrupting me? I am the son of a great father. I'm well qualified to take over the Marquise de Galli.

"Even if you say so, your predecessor did not choose Dale as his successor, but the boy. Then I can only abide by his wishes.

"I knew it! I was right. Uncle! I'm the next head of the Marquise de Galli, and I'm a hundred years too young to be fooled. You can no longer get away with it. Give up and answer for your crimes.

"Dublin, what are you talking about? I only petitioned the king because I feared for House Gulli in Davutos and Davosin. I have committed no crime.

...... it was. Since we have not committed a clear crime, we cannot attack and destroy them all at once for the sake of appearances.

"Well, well. There are many suspicions about your uncle. Let's keep him quiet for a while."

So far, he seems to be obedient, but I'm sure Uncle Jochi knows that he will only be erased if he continues in this way. Well, no matter how hard we try, it's all for naught now that we have returned.

I know it was easy and I didn't do much, but it's just the beginning. When they're gone, your uncles will have plenty to regret.

First, we must arrest those who have disrespected us. I remember there was a spiritist who disobeyed me. Let's capture them all together and let the difference in status be etched in our bones.
