CHAPTER 57 OJII-CHANZ

Dear Lucio

My Senjukou

One day, Ojii-san and the King came together.

I got surprised to the two who stood together in front of the entrance.

Ojii-chan, and also Ou-sama. What is it suddenly?

We came to play. Isnt that right, Abe

Umu, I came invited by Luka

The two talked very frankly to each other.

Theyre really getting along as usual.

Butthey came to play, they said.

Its alright with Ojii-san, but isnt that bad for the King?

The minister would be crying again you know.

Its alright, my Senjukou

My heart skipped a beat.

The King said as if he read my mind.

I have no slips this time. To be sure to not let anyone know, I properly asked casted on magic that changes recognition. The me right now should only be seen as an old man other than the ones who know me

Hee, theres a magic like that huh

I havent learned it, but well, it isnt strange if it exists.

I have learned quite a few magic spells that are more than that.

Well, if that is so, its alright huh.

Then, come on up

I invited the two to the mansion, and passed them to the living room.

There was Veronica there.

She was on the sofa leisurely, and was drinking the tea Sylvia made.

Ojii-chanz who saw her tilted their heads at once.

Umu? Lucio, who is that girl?

Eo, shes my friend

Hou, my Senjukous friend

Isnt she quite a lovely girl

Umu, she matches well with my Senjukou

No, no.

Saying that she matches well with me suddenly.

Well, with the appearance of her age, that might be true though.

And when I was thinking of that, the King approached Veronica, and talked to her.

Nice to meet you. Can I ask little ladys name

Nice to meet you too. I am Veronica Amall Guernica desuwa. You are?

I am Abraham the Third

Wait, wait, why are you two saying your real names?

Of course, the atmosphere petrifies.

I am Luka Martein

Nobody was listening to Ojii-sans self-introduction.

Fumu, I know a girl that has the same name as you. She is not as young as you are

I also know a name that is similar to yours. He is not an ordinary old man like you though

No, the two of you, both of you are the real ones.

The King, and the previous Queen.

Depending on how you look at it, this, isnt it something like a summit.

The two stareno, glared at each other for a while.

Finally, the two talked to me while glaring at each other.

Come to think of it, my Senjukou. Do you have something youre troubled with recently?

Im pretty much troubled that the King is frequently coming to another kingdom.

Ne, Lucio. Where are we going to play today?

Its not a situation that we can go out and play.

When I wasnt being able to answer, there were more and more sparks between the two.

To this situation that cant be solved with magic, I was very troubled.

Luggage is being carried into the mansion from the carriage in front of it.

Most of them are Grimoires.

The King, to make me read them; Grimoires th

at were taken from the Royal Grimoire Library.

Speculating from the amount of the luggage, about a thousand books. And from how I looked at their covers, all of them are ones that I havent read yet.

Honestly, this is quite thankful.

Thank you very much, Ou-sama

No, no, it is nothing. It is for my Senjukou, something like this isnt much

But, next time, I would be happy if you tell me in forward. Im surprised that it suddenly came

Well, because, I wanted to see my Senjukous surprised face

Dont act cutesy

Please, Ou-sama

I looked at him straight, and begged with looking from below.

Mumumu, I got it. If you insist that much, it cant be helped. Next time, Ill send a messenger before coming

Thank you, Ou-sama!

When I said thanks, the King was moved.

Lucio

This time, Ojii-san talked to me.

What is it?

Look at thisIcicle

Jii-san reached out his hand.

He used a magic, and created an ice pillar.

I got a little surprised.

Ojii-chan, you remembered a new magic?

Umu, the Grimoires that Lucio recommended, I could read that

Amazing

Its all thanks to Lucio. Hey, dear Lucio, what Grimoire would you recommend to me next?

Uhmm, then, I suggest Blast Stone for the next one I guess? I think that that was easy to read. That should also be in Ojii-chans place

Umu, Ill read it immediately after I go home

Ojii-san nodded with a full smile.

And there, the King interrupts.

My Senjukou. Are you not troubled with your lifestyle?

Lifestyle, uun, Im okay?

I see. In addition to the regular salary of a Duke, I had added 50% for the business trip bills, so if its not enough, you can tell me anytime alright

50%?

Wait a minute, thats a huge amount you know.

Its not enough right, theres a lot of expenses in a land that youre not used to. I also said that, but the minister was so unwilling

No, no, no.

Thank you, minister, good job on stopping him.

I know, my Senjukou has two wives right. Yosh, when I return, I will make you have family allowance

Stop it, Ou-sama. I dont need that much. The salary up until now is already too much

I mean, a Duke of a kingdom receives a high amount. The amount originally is already enough for hiring a hundred servants.

If there were additional things to that, its a little scary.

Thats why I stopped him in a hurry.

I see

Thats true, Abe, theres no problem in money. Lucio, Im thinking of sending Amanda here

Amanda-san?

Thats right. Lucios two wives also do chores right? If that is so, I thought that a maid that Lucio also knows quite well would be great on taking care of personal things instead

That is, un, I guess so

I remembered the time when I was living in our family house, its true that Amanda is very helpful.

If she is here, the more that I would be able to play with Sylvia and Nadia. Ojii-sans words are completely correct

Thencan I ask you that

Umu, Ill send Amanda here after I return

Thank you, Ojii-chan

Fufun

Ojii-san snorted his nose very proudly, and the King was groaning.

AhhI mightve done this wrongly.

My Senjukou. If its a maid, theres a lot of them in the palace. Ill also send one super maid

As Ive thought, he started to compete.

Ojii-san and the King. The more that the two get along, the more that they compete with each other.

On top of that, they would compete on things that wouldnt leave seeds of trouble in the future, so its difficult to stop, and Id get troubled.

Let me think, a hundred people should be enough right

Lucio, do you want dried persimmons that you ate when you were young? Ill send you a lot of them next time

Really, Im troubled.

I feel troubled, but for some reason, Im happy.

Because, the two are really lively when they compete against each other.
