169 - - 167 episodes of the Dictatorship.

Mr. Toruku cooked a lot of food for us. I was very happy to have magma fish for breakfast, which I had always been curious about. It was a delicacy worthy of a delicacy from another world, but I guess that's okay too.

"Did you guys like it?"

"It was delicious." "It was delicious." "Master, it was delicious." "Master, it was very delicious." "I love fried food." "Ho ho ho." "Pugyu." "It's fun to taste something for the first time."

"I see. That's good."

They were happy, and I enjoyed it. I'd say the food drive was a great success. We still have dragon tongues and fire dragon meat to enjoy.

"Master, what are you doing today?"

Sara asked me what my plans were for the day. Well, I felt satisfied and the day was over, but it was still morning. I was thinking of going to see Gina, but I'm in a lazy mood today. I feel like I could take today or tomorrow off at least. Let's take it easy and play with the belles.

"As for my plans for the rest of the day, ...... I haven't rested since I got back from the labyrinth, and Sarah and the others haven't taken a day off, so I think I'll take a few days off. You can go out and do whatever you want, but just to be on the safe side, I'm going to need you to go with Dory, so let me know if you need to go out."

Sarah and the others have been training in the mansion all day, so let's let them play in the labyrinth city. We should give them some pocket money too.

Yuta! The viscount is leaving. It's a carriage and he won't arrive at the capital for 4 days..."

I completely forgot about ....... That troublesome aristocrat is still here. I'm in trouble with the nobles, so I'll have to wait to recruit Gina until after I'm done with the viscount. It would be a pity to get her into trouble just after she became my apprentice. Well, I don't know if she'll become my apprentice or not.

Okay, thank you, Sylphie. Will you let me know when you arrive in the capital?

"Yes, I'll go and check on him when he arrives.

Thank you, I'm sorry to have bothered you.

"Don't worry about it."

Sylphy says with a wave of her hand. But she doesn't look excited, so I guess she's taking her time. When she's interested in something, she flies away from it immediately.

**

"Yuta, the Viscount has arrived at the Marquis' mansion. What do we do?"

We spend our holidays leisurely, visiting with Mel and enjoying good food. While I was completely distracted, Sylphy, who had gone to check on the Viscount because he would be arriving at the royal capital soon, came back. He has finally arrived.

Arrival on the fourth night?　Well, I'm kind of looking forward to it, since I've done a lot of preparation for this day.

"Yeah, let's get going. "Oh, wait a minute, I'll tell Bell and Sara."

I call Sarah and her friends who are training voluntarily even though it is their day off, and Bell and her friends who were helping them. Sarah and her friends have gone out several times, but they are very diligent and good kids who train every day. I wish they would relax more, because it's hard for me to be around them.

By the way, when Sara and her friends went to Gina's diner, they asked her a lot of questions about the necromancer. She told them that she kept the details of her training secret, but told them what she could tell them. Gina seemed to be having a hard time deciding, but I guess that means she has a pulse. Let's hope for the best.

"Yuta, what's up?" Cue?""" A handbag?"" Cu?"

"Master, what is it?" Master, new training?"" Kunren?""" Ho?""" Pugya?"

Yeah, it's a big family to get so many replies when you call out to them.

"I'm not here to help you or to train you. I'm going out with Sylphy for a while. I'll call Dolly and I'll be back by morning, so you guys go back to sleep."

Everyone responds cheerfully. I'm blessed. After I have patted them all on the head, I am about to summon Dolly when it occurs to me. I haven't called Dine in a while, and I'm afraid she'll sulk if I don't. But I'm worried about them if it's just Dine.

I trust her to be safe, but there is a high probability that Bell and the others will learn something strange. ...... Well, I'll call both Deanne and Dolly. Dolly will be a stopper.

"Here comes your sister!"

Dineh appears on the stage, and Belle and her friends greet her with a "deeeeeeeeee! They seem to be having a lot of fun. I summon Dolly to babysit while I'm at it. After the greeting with Dene, Belle and her friends came to greet Dolly.

"Yuta, don't you think the way Belle and Dolly greeted you is very different from the way your sister greeted Dolly?

Dine tilted her head curiously, and I didn't know what to say.

I don't know what to say.　I don't really understand. So, I was wondering if you could babysit Belle and Sarah for me?"

"You're asking for your sister. Leave it to your sister!"

...... Is she still trying to impress her big sister by putting her big sister twice in between short words?　Well, you've put up a good fight, so I'll trust that you'll be fine. I've asked Dolly to make sure she's okay with it.

I'm off then. Sylphie, please."

I wave to everyone and sneak out the window into the sky.

"Okay, let's go."

"Yeah."

...... arrived at the destination as fast as possible. Well, of course we did. It's two days away by horseback. So this is the royal city ....... It's pretty big. It would be fun to come to King's Landing with everyone since it's so close.

"Oh, the Viscount is just on his way to the Marquis' room. Do you want to hear?"

Can you hear me?　I mean, eavesdropping on a conversation between men is a little creepy. But it's important to hear what they're up to.

"Please!"

"Yes, well, you must embrace the wind."

Sylphy says, and a gentle breeze blows in the air. ...... I feel a little uncomfortable as the two men's conversation reaches my ears on the pleasant breeze. ......

Floating above the marquis's mansion in the royal city, I listen to the conversation that is carried on the wind. The thought of listening to the radio makes me feel a little less disgusted.

"Father!　That adventurer was a fool who did not know what nobility was. That piece of trash, let's kill him."

I thought you were supposed to enslave them.　I don't consider myself a smart man, but when the Viscount calls me a fool, I take offense. I feel like I'm being insulted very badly.

"Calm down. Calm down. It's true that he has value, even if he is a lowly man. And a lowly man cannot understand the nobility of nobility. Those who refuse to follow orders have their ways. You can either enslave them or kidnap those around them and make them do what you tell them to do. Then the treasures of the labyrinth, the materials, and the honor of war will all belong to my House of Galli."

...... father, the Marquis, was also an aristocrat of the crazy type. I guess that kind of monster is born when you are spoiled and do whatever you want. Should we scold Belle and Sarah too?　...... Well, I don't need to scold him because he doesn't do anything to be scolded and if I warn him, he won't repeat it, he's different from that Viscount. But he seems to choose criminal acts without hesitation.　　

There's no need to make such a lowly man serve you. Then, let's just say that the adventurer has stolen our treasure and reduce him to a slave. We can be sure of that by kidnapping his apprentice as well.

"Haha, that's my boy! Such prudence!　You are a worthy successor to the Marquise de Galli."

...... headache. When they say they are going to kidnap Sarah and the others, I should be angry, but instead of anger, I feel sadness. I'm getting sick in the head just listening to this conversation.

"Hey Yuta, why don't you hang your head already?

Sylphy's words fascinated me terribly. But I don't want to see the two idiots' heads, even though I didn't do it. The royal family is going to send a messenger to question us, but at this rate they'll try to mess with us before that, so let's stick to the plan.

I've come up with a plan and I'm sure those two can do it!

"Is that so?　Well, if Yuta says so, then fine. If not, we'll hang him then.

...... They really want to hang him. Sylphy doesn't like that type. ...... I wonder if she likes them more than most people do. I'm tired of listening to the conversation between the lustful idiots, so I ask Sylphy to stop the conversation and have a cup of tea while relaxing in the sky and looking at the royal city.

In a normal fantasy world, it would be dark at night, but since almost everyone can use life magic, there are light balls everywhere, which is quite a spectacular sight.

The father and son start drinking together, and Sylphy and I have a leisurely conversation for the first time in a while. This kind of time is not so bad.

****

...... Finally the Marquis and the Viscount have gone to bed. If it's just a drink, the idiot son has his hands on the maid. Envy and the awkward silence that flowed between me and Sylphy...... decided, I'll be a little harder on him than I planned. I'm so pissed off.

I'm going to have to go to the office to get a good look at the house. There are some guards, but they don't seem to have taken much precaution against air invasions. As expected, the windows are covered with metal grids, but Sylphy cuts them off. The wind membrane is conveniently designed to prevent sound from leaking out. I think I'm going to be as good a thief as Loon.

Thanks to Sylphy's perfect spotting, we arrive at the Viscount's room without any problems. I'm trespassing in someone's house, but I don't feel the thrill of being a thief.

Well, I ask Sylphy to wrap the Viscount in a cocoon of wind. I almost look at the maid sleeping next to me, but I do my best as a gentleman to avert my eyes. The Viscount is also naked, so I cover him with a cloth. I don't want to look at him, so I finish quickly.

（Sylphy, won't he wake up?)

"It's okay. It's just like putting an animal to sleep, it won't notice for a while."

I see, the animals didn't wake up at all. We move on and wrap the Marquis in a cocoon of wind as well and escape from the mansion. At first I thought of throwing him naked in the king's castle, but I decided on another way since it might end quickly with his execution or the king might be lenient in his judgment and allow it in secret.

"Okay, let's go."

"Yes, please."

With the viscount and the marquis wrapped in a cocoon of wind, they fly through the sky and across the continent.

"This is the farthest country from the Kingdom of Chrysoprase. Can we go by that little village?"

"Yes, I want to be somewhere where demons won't attack me while I'm sleeping."

"Okay, I'll just throw them in those bushes and you'll find them in the morning, is that okay?"

Well, well, Sylphy seems to have trouble dealing with the Viscount and the Marquis, so there's no reason for me to be overprotective. If she gets bugs, she'll wake up.

"Yes, but first I need your clothes."

Sylphy waves her hand a little uncomfortably, and the Marquis' nightgown falls to pieces. It's an ugly sight. It's a good thing Belle and her friends are staying at home. Bad education.

The Viscount and the Marquis are stripped naked, thrown into the bushes, and a hundred thousand elts wrapped in civilian clothes are placed on top of the Marquis. I was not sure whether to give them the money or the clothes. But this father and son are going to be dead in a moment without the first money.

I hope they can make some kind of a splash. I was going to give the viscount 100,000 elts as well, but I don't have the money to give it to a guy who messes with maids.

An ordeal to return to the kingdom of Chrysoprase with no proof of identity and little money. When you come back, you will have grown up to be an adult. If he dies on the way back, so be it. You'll be a lot better off than I was when I was left in the land of the dead.

If the Viscount and the Marquis go missing, they won't have time to mess with me... and if it's too late, someone else will take over the house. What will happen?　I'm kind of looking forward to it.

The nobleman who laid a hand on me is missing. They'll suspect me, but I didn't leave any proof and I'll be able to handle it if the king doesn't get mad about the Marquis de Galli's disappearance. I hope this will keep you out of trouble ...... for the time being.
