Chapter 9: Second Son, to Independence

Nadia-chan!

SylvieIs it Sylvie?!

Inside the room, the two friends were reunited.

Nadia was surprised being taken here, and Sylvia ran to embrace her.

Why are you here?

Instead of me, why is Nadia-chan here?

While the two girls were talking, I was facing Golka.

I can, take her home right

I have confirmed the payment. The ownership of slave Nadia has been moved to you. As you will

Golka said.

The payment was made earlier by sending an employee to the mansion, and let them bring my saved money here.

If its Grimoire, I could be as many as I want as long as I report it to Ojii-san later on, but this time, it should be my own money.

Ive used most of my savings, but well, whatever.

Sylvia, alsoNadia? Lets go home for the mean time

With an intention of something like an extra bonus, they made us a free ride using a carriage to the mansion.

The three of us rode the carriage, and came back to the mansion.

I was always worried about Sylvie. Even if I ask Father, he wouldnt tell me anything. He said that I should forget all about Sylvie-chan, that was all that Ive been told

Im sorry

Rather than that, why did you become a slave?

I returned to my usual way of talking and asked Nadia.

Nadia was astonished in an instant, and looked at Sylvia. Sylvia nodded, and Nadia started talking about the story timidly.

I dont know, there was a lot of people who came to the house suddenly, telling to seize

Ahh

Nadia told that she doesnt know, but I guessed what happened generally with only that.

Its the same thing that probably happened to Sylvia.

Lucio-sama

Un, what is it

What is Nadia-changoing to do from now on?

I hesitated.

Nadias social status is that of a slave, so normally she would be a servant or a maid because slaves are usually used like that.

But Nadia is Sylvias best friend, using her as a servant with Sylvia whos close to her age nearby, makes me feel guilty.

I wonder what I should do.

You should just marry her

Returning to the mansion, I consulted Ojii-san who understand me best, and I was told that.

Marry? I will marry Nadia?

That is for the best

I see, for the best huh.

Ah! But there is something to be done with her slave social status

If its in Martein House theres no problem. There are some nobilities that are noisy about that, but our house dont have that problem. I mean

*Niyari*Ojii-san smiled at me.

I also had a slave wife

Oi oi, are you serious.

But I heard something good.

If it was Ojii-san who is virtually the head of our house to back me up, theres no problem at all. All is left is how to convince Nadia.

You will do that?

Un, it looks like theres no other way

Then, it is better if you got independent

Independent?

What does he mean.

Its not good that you have two wives yet you live in the family house right? Isnt it natural that you buy a house, and live together with you wives there?

Maybe that is true.

Ojii-chan, Im still 8-years old you know?

A man who takes home a wife with his own will is already an adult

I guess so.

Theres no helping it, I should find a way to earn, buy a house, and be independent.

Ah! Before that, I should confirm Nadias feelings.

That was decided, so marrying is the best way, what do you think?

Returning to the mansion, I talked about that to Sylvia and Nadia.

Really!

Nadia was very happy for some reason.

I can be the wife of the same person with Sylvie?

Well, it would be like that

I will, I will become a wife!

Nadia was more eager that Ive expected, I was confused instead.

I-I see. What about Sylvia

If Lucio-sama says so

*Niccori*Sylvia smiled pleasantly. In her age, she was the mirror of an obedient wife.

Yosh, lets do that then

The storywas surprisingly organized easily.

Well then, I need a houseandbecome independent.
