“Lord Violant, are you feeling alright?”
Vio nodded. “I slept for a while, so I feel a lot better now.”
However, Vio was quite surprised. Never had he expected the crown prince to bring Princess Liona and Night to visit while he had dozed off. He never imagined the day would come where he could talk to both the hero and heroine of the manga he read in his previous life. Night, the protagonist, was calm and easy-going, while Liona, the heroine, was hot-tempered yet kind, wielding a strong sense of justice. They were exactly like the characters in the manga.
After meeting them, he really liked how nice they were.
“Legi, I’m sorry for dropping such an important task on you, but I’m looking forward to match. I don’t care if you win or lose. Just have fun.”
“Yes! I’ll bring victory to Lord Violant.” Legion nodded, extremely motivated.
As a fan of the manga, Vio wanted Night to win, but he also wanted his knight to taste victory. Needless to say, he had mixed feelings.
“Master, I brewed tea. Please have a seat over there.”
“Ah, thank you, Rille.” As Vio approached the table Rille had prepared, someone banged on the door of the guest room.
It swung open violently, and Legion moved to stand in front of Vio at once, thinking that it was an intruder. But as soon as he had recognized that person’s identity, he stepped aside.
It was Rupheus.
“Brother, why have you suddenly come?” asked Vio, shock coursing through his veins. Rupheus hated Vio so much that, under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t bother coming to find him. For a moment, the thought that Rupheus had visited him due to his unwell state crossed Vio’s mind. But if that was the case, his brother wouldn’t be so furious.
Meanwhile, Rupheus walked toward Vio in quick strides. Vio shot a glance at Rille and signalled to Jill by looking down. In the past, Rupheus had had his eyes on Rille and had dragged her into his bedroom. Noticing his master’s signal, Jill pushed Rille into the servants’ quarters, making sure to avoid Rupheus’ notice.
“You’re asking me why? You fucking bastard… What nerve!” Rupheus raised his right hand. The next instance, Vio felt a strong impact on his left cheek and fell to the ground, not knowing what just happened.
…Huh?!
A moment later, pain began to spread through his cheek. And it dawned on Vio that Rupheus had just slapped him. Rupheus, who was known as a military man, struck him with his dominant hand. The impact stung terribly.
“Lord Rupheus! What are you doing?!”
“This kind of outrageous behavior is too much!”
But Rupheus ignored Jill and Legion’s outbursts, glaring at them. “Annoying. You servants should know your place.”
Vio lifted the upper half of his unsteady body from the floor. Looked up at Rupheus in a daze. He could not for the life of him understand why his brother had hit him.
Rupheus looked down at Vio, ice-blue eyes cold enough to freeze. “I told you to stay in the corner so that no one would pay attention to you! Look at you now, boldly going back on your words. I’m disgusted.”
It seemed his anger stemmed from the crown prince’s visit. Even so, there was no way Vio could refuse a visit from the royal family.
“But Brother—”
“Shut up! I won’t listen to any of your excuses… I need to pay more attention to my family, she said? How dare that Ruslan vixen talk to me like that,” muttered Rupheus, grabbing Vio’s shirt collar, lifting him up from his sitting position. The collar tightened around his neck, painful. But Vio froze out of fear that Rupheus would grow violent again.
“When I inherit the position of duke, I’ll immediately banish a piece of shit like you from my territory. No, maybe I can sell you into slavery to some people. Your only good point is your appearance, after all. Then, with the money from the sale, I’ll improve the territory. You should be delighted.”
The moment he had heard those words, Vio grew pale. Heavy labor in the mines came to mind.
“Brother…” Vio was certain his brother would do as he had said. He felt nauseous from fear. He had thought he would be safe as long as he stayed in Leca town, but perhaps this wasn’t so. No. In any case, a war would break out before Rupheus inherited the position of duke. So there would be no place safe either way.
Vio looked at Rupheus, unsure of what to do.
All of a sudden, Rupheus released his hold on him, and Vio fell to the ground on his back.

“You don’t cry or even beg for your life… What a useless guy. Why does Mother protect someone like you?” muttered Rupheus in disgust. Probably satisfied with his work, he then left the room, not once sparing Vio another glance.
Not a moment later, Legion rushed over to Vio and helped him up. “Are you alright, Lord Violant? Ah, your cheek is swelling. Mister Butler, treat him at once.”
“Right away.”
Jill ran toward the servant room. Following that, Legion carried Vio, who was still befuddled, in his arms. Without giving Vio the time to be surprised or to protest, Legion placed him down on a nearby chair. Shortly after, Jill returned with Rille holding a tub of water and a towel.
“Ouch,” said Vio, frowning when Jill pressed the wet towel against his injured cheek. It seemed he had cut his lips with his teeth when Rupheus had slapped him. Without a moment of delay, Jill took out some ointment and smeared it on that cheek.
As Jill applied the ointment, Vio heaved a big sigh. He had finally collected his thoughts through the shock.
“Why does Brother hate me so much? I don’t want to be sent to the mine.” Vio’s shoulders shrank and he pressed the towel he had received against his left cheek.
As he seriously pondered over how many days he had left to survive, Jill asked unhappily, “On the contrary, I’m wondering why Young Master won’t get angry at him. Why do you always endure it like this?”
“Why, you ask… It’s because what he said is right. I have no good points aside from my face. For that, I’m grateful to my mother,” replied Vio. “But it’s not like I can do anything if His Highness the Crown Prince came to visit me. It causes problems for my brother too.”
Now that things had progressed to this point, issues might arise at the joint practice three days later. However, he had already made a promise to Princess Liona. As such, it was out of Vio’s hands.
“Hmm, maybe I should ask for my mother’s assistance… At the end of the day, it can’t be helped. We can’t just create a crack in our country’s relationship with the Ruslan Kingdom.”
Vio shifted his gaze back to Jill, wondering why the servants were so quiet. They all wore bitter expressions.
“Master has so many good points! You’re kind, gentle, and smart. Not to mention, you also have talent in spirit magic. Even now you are still thinking about the peace between countries, aren’t you? You’re this considerate, so why do you have to suffer like this?! Rille can’t help but feel vexed!” She covered her face, starting to weep.
Just as the sight had startled Vio, Legion, who was kneeling on one knee beside him, took hold of his right hand. “Lord Violant. So long as you give me the command, I am ready to dispose of anything that harms you, even at the cost of my life.
“Me too.” Jill also placed a hand on his chest and bowed.
Vio looked at them, speechless. Getting rid of anything that harms me… Are they thinking of assassinating my brother? Don’t say such a scary thing…
He couldn’t help but laugh. They truly were impeccable at pampering him. But he frowned soon after: his injury had started to hurt.
“You don’t need to do that,” said Vio. “But when push comes to shove… should we leave the mansion and run away? With my spirit magic, Legi’s skill in the sword, Rille’s martial arts abilities, and… what about Jill? Well, no matter how it turns out later, we can become an excellent mercenary party, don’t you think?” Though he might not have to do anything since Legion could probably finish all their missions by himself.
Legion said, “If we’re going to do that, then I alone am enough to clear missions. Lord Violant doesn’t have to lift a finger.”
“My, are you saying that I’m useless, Sir Legion? Of course, I’ll be the one to help Master.”
“Sure, I will follow you with pleasure,” said Jill.
Vio already felt satisfied with their encouraging replies. “Thank you, everyone. I sure am fortunate.”
The trio calmed down after he had smiled at them. Vio pulled himself together and clapped. “Now then, let’s wrap it up here. Since it’s already lunchtime, I’ll have to ask you to prepare it.”
“Oh my, this is bad. I’ll have it ready soon, Master.”
“You don’t have to get so flustered, Rille.”
After wiping her tears with her apron, Rille started that duty with energetic steps.
“Jill, may you go to mother’s place after eating lunch?”

“Understood.” Jill bowed.
Although Legion looked at him with high expectations, Vio couldn’t think of any errands for him. “Legi… ah, that’s right. May you help treat my injury a little more?”
“With pleasure.”
Following that, Legion took care of him, wringing the towel and pressing it to Vio’s cheek. An easy task, yet Vio felt a bit apologetic.
