Chapter.4 Hamburger and Boy

I summoned a flame spirit that feeds on my mana. Little lights twinkle around me.

The boy looked at it with very curious eyes.

“What is this? “It’s just sparkling?”

“I will protect you in case your life is in danger. So you can always make a loud noise. “You don’t have to be afraid.”

“really?”

“Really. “It may look small, but if the Baron is in danger, it will turn into flames and eat everything.”

“Nana! I think I read about spirits in a book. amazing!”

“But it’s not free.”

“Isn’t it free?”

“Even if you become a lord, you must come to the restaurant often. However, not with the sensibility of a dignified lord, but with the sensibility of a boy like today. “If you come to a restaurant and show off, we’ll kick you out.”

“Don’t worry about that. He is a good lord, so he has no dignity. yes?”

“No, it has to be there when there is dignity. You must know how to react according to the situation. “It’s all up to the Baron.”

“I see!”

Leaving the boy to make up his mind alone, I called Lulin.

“Rulin, let’s stop rolling around and go back.”

Lurin, who had been rolling around on the sofa, fluttering as if she liked it, opened her arms wide when I said that. It seems to mean come and hug me. This dragon?

“This is so soft! “Can’t we take it home?”

“I’ll buy it for you later, so don’t be greedy for someone else’s.”

“You must keep that promise! Well, if you want to go back, give me a hug! This time from the front.”

Rurin opens her arms wider again. There is no choice if you want to go comfortably.

“see you later.”

I cried out and clung to Rurin.

The boy raises his arms in confusion.

“Are you going already?”

“Next time, don’t sneak away and visit me, but come find me on your own.”

At that very moment, Lurin used teleportation. The black hole’s spiral struck my vision again.

The moment the boy comes out strong, the little woman will probably be quite embarrassed. Still, I won’t give up.

From there, the boy’s fight begins. There’s no way there’s just a small group of women around. Now I’m in that state because I’m seen as a child with very little will.

There was some interest, but it was a problem the boy would have to deal with in the future.

If you become a regular, I’ll take care of you more. If you become a regular.

At least if you have that spirit, your life won’t be in danger. The Flame Spirit was a service for leaving 100,000 runes on the table.

You don’t want to give back the money you once received, right? No matter how rich I am.

A few days later.

The boy came back to the store. I was alone again.

“Did you run away again?”

When I ask, Mr. Youngju next shakes his head. And pointed outside.

“I came to speak confidently. “There is an escort outside.”

“Oh, is that so?”

He gently patted the boy’s head. And then I surprised myself. I’m glad there’s no one watching. If it were my status, even the emperor would tremble.

That’s why a count like him can’t say anything even if you pat him on the head or even hit him, but the problem here is that he’s a retired commoner.

“That can’t be said.”

“Why? I feel sorry for you and want to help you. “Isn’t that the first step to becoming a good lord?”

“So you are going to help everyone who is having trouble? Do you cook for all the single mother families, farmers, poor people and beggars in Gray City?”

“I need help. “That’s a good lord.”

“Listen carefully, Baron. That’s just the Baron’s self-satisfaction. “What difference does it make if you help me like that just once?”

“uh?”

“And is that your money, Baron? “It’s family money, right?”

“that... .”

“If you become a lord and manage the territory, it will be your property. But not now.”

The boy couldn’t say anything.

“If you really want to be a good lord, give help for a reason, not the self-satisfaction of throwing money away for no reason. Policies or jobs that allow single-parent families to receive assistance. It is the role of a lord to come up with fundamental measures and enable the people to stand up for themselves. “Throwing money is something anyone can do, and it’s also something that can’t change anything.”

“but!”

“When people encounter unexpected good fortune, they always feel the need for help. I don’t have the ability to take action to solve something on my own. Are you going to take responsibility for them for the rest of your life?”

“Uh uh... .”

Of course, what I say is not the correct answer. But at the very least, enemy lines for no reason can easily ruin boys and girls. I think so.

“How old are you two?”

“I’m 18!”

“If you’re that age, you’d be helping in the fields, right?”

“yes!”

“If you really want to give a gift, it doesn’t mean you don’t have the opportunity. Of course, even this opportunity itself is very fortunate. “The world is not that easy.”

“I know that! “I don’t know how many times I’ve been kicked out already.”

“brother... .”

“Well then let’s do it like this. I will create an opportunity for you. So do you want to work? If you complete it, I will prepare the best dinner for your whole family.”

“Is that true? Please tell me anything! “I don’t mind breaking my body as long as I can serve delicious food to my mother!”

The boy nodded his head at me.

“I want to do it too!”

And the girl, holding her brother’s hand tightly, also opened her mouth.

“I guess you’re too young to work?”

“I’m already 12 years old now!”

The girl looked at me with earnest eyes. It seemed like I couldn’t refuse that earnestness, so I opened my mouth again.

“Well, if it’s just a matter of helping your brother, then do it yourself.”

Then another boy. I felt Gray’s gaze staring at me.

“I will try that too. Nana! I want to learn something. I wanted to make money with my own hands. “Thanks to you.”

It’s good to experience anything. That thought itself was amazing. There is no need to refuse.

“great.”

I walked to the Limon Forest, leading the growing sprouts. And he pointed to the entire forest.

“If you look closely, there are eggs like this here and there in this forest, so you just have to search through the grass or bamboo and search again to collect as many as possible. And if I find one that looks like this, I dig it up.”

In addition to eggs, they showed bamboo shoots that are difficult to find and dig up one by one.

“If you’re doing it for your mother, try hard.”

“thank you! “I will work hard!”

The boy ran into the forest without any hesitation.

“brother! “Let’s go together!”

The girl goes in together. Grayke also entered the forest with determination in his eyes. The guards just looked at Gray in silence.
