Chapter 82. Siblings of the Pernil family (4) Anyway, the boy who had been insulting me hard even by mentioning other people''s families pointed at Heia and shouted.


    “Don''t you know that it''s disgracing your family?”


    No, you''re making me disgrace your family right now, right?


    Didn''t you learn not to point fingers at others?


    I''m wondering if this should seriously raise the issue of personality of the aristocratic children in the kingdom.


    Eventually, when the family was mentioned, Iret took a step forward as if she could not stand it.


    “Please stop insulting my sister and Miss Karet.”


    When he rarely expressed his opinion, it must have hurt the boy''s pride.


    “How dare this bastard!”


    wow youe out like that


    It seems that the boy has no talent for talking.


    Seeing him clenching his fist, it''s obvious what he''s trying to do.


    Why do guys like that go out of their hands without thinking?


    What did you do to let go?


    I sneak up behind the noisy boy and grab his wrist.


    No matter how fragile I am in cosy, one hand is enough for a kid like this.


    “What is it!”


    “What is it? Are you trying to bring justice to unjust bullying?”


    Do you think that this precious body will personally spread true education?


    I looked down at the boy and smirked.


    “It is not a matter for outsiders to meddle.”


    “don''t worry. Because you have permission to enter.


    I am a licensed outsider.”


    When I said, waving my pass, the boy gritted his teeth.


    “Go dare!”


    “You dare to know who I am and touch me? huh? yes?”


    “???? uh.”


    how is it? How does it feel to have your words intercepted?


    By the way, is this really what these kids are trying to say?


    Yes, you are like a child from a small house.


    But what about this?


    “I’m sorry, but I am a child of a bigger family.”


    When I unexpectedly came out with a high posture, this boy looked up at my face in a daze, perhaps realizing that something was going wrong.


    “What is so noisy about it?”


    who else ising


    What kind of meeting ce is this? Who put honey here? Why are you alling here?


    The one who came this time was a young man with a simr impression to the boy Asha was suppressing.


    He looks too young to be a student here, and he probably looks like a teacher.


    “older brother!”


    The boy smiles and exims.


    So this time is it your brother?


    The young man, older brother, looked around at us and frowned.


    Do you not understand the current situation?


    yes me too


    “Who are you?”


    “Let''s say I''m the third prince of the kingdom of Ernesia and the lord of the snowy vige over there called Pahilia.”


    “What!? Kkeuk kuk!”


    Unfortunately, at this moment, the subdued boy coughed with a cough.


    did you understand?


    you''re behind


    The older brother of this ignorant boy looked at us once again, bewildered, and then let out a long sigh.


    “...Would you like to move around and talk?”


    We headed to the parlor to receive guests.


    There were only three of us here, Asha, me, and the young man from before.


    “I apologize for the disloyalty my younger brothermitted to Arell. Afterwards, the family will also offer a formal apology.”


    The young man bowed his head.


    His name is Gadel Lucien.


    He works as an instructor teaching swordsmanship at the academy.


    And the kid who was verbally abusing Asha''s brother just now is Gappen Luchen.


    “I don’t think I deserve an apology.”


    I nced outside and said.


    Now the little ones are outside the drawing room.


    There are only Iret and Heia.


    It seemed that the kid who asked if it was Gapen was sent back first.


    The two of them told me to go back for now, but I get caught walking back and forth outside the door as if they were concerned.


    “It is Iret who needs an apology.”


    “...As for the boy from the Pernil family... I have nothing to say about that.”


    Gardell, however, noticed a little, but did not bend that point.


    “Even though I was verbally abusive? You''re not trying to pass this off as the kids arguing, right?”


    “I heard that it can’t be helped.”


    “what''?”


    “I heard that the one who interfered with my brother''s friendship was a child from the Pernil family. isn''t it? Sir Pernil?”


    In his gaze, there is a hint of Asha... no, furthermore, there is a sense of disrespect for her family.


    Should I say that he is the brother of his brother?


    No, it''s amon aristocratic way of thinking.


    When ites to families that are lower in rank than themselves or poor, they look down on them like stones rolling on the side of the road.


    Of course, it wouldn''t be absurd for Asha.


    “I know Iret didn’t do anything.”


    Asha responded without losing.


    “It is the same. The Karet family and the Lhenga have known each other for a long time. Do you have the right to interrupt it?”


    Does that mean that the son of the Pernil family won''t intervene since he intends to somehow tie the two children together?


    That''s right. Is it the owner of the family who is Gappen or something that approached Heia?


    It reminds me of the extent of the privileged consciousness of the noble families.


    And funny.


    In the world, are little kids even meddling with love?


    On the one hand, it also touches me that this is the attitude of a human being involved in education at the academy.


    Clearly this is over for an educational institution.


    “....haha. It is a masterpiece.”


    I finally couldn''t hold back and burst intoughter.


    “Arell?”


    “Did you say Gardel? Now you''re talkingpletely off the point.


    Why do you talk about family in your children''s rtionship?


    Identity? I know all the kids enrolled here are nobles, right? Was the motto here discrimination? If so, why not write it down?”


    “...Even so, the difference in ss cannot be ignored.”


    He is choosing his words as best he can because he doesn''t know what will happen if he rude to me like he said to Asha who tried to speak without crawling.


    “It is also the duty of nobles to have social rtions worthy of their rank.”


    “If you put it like that, Asha is my escort.


    Do you want to say that a knight in charge of escorting the royal family is inferior? It’s good to cover up your words.”


    Gardell kept his mouth shut, as if he had finally realized that he could go against my will.


    “I don’t like to be taken down with rank either. So let''s not touch that far.”


    “....All right. I''ll give my own warning to my little brother.


    Please warn the Pernil family not to act impulsively.”


    Gardel tried to organize things in a hurry, as if he had judged that there would be no point in prolonging this position any longer.


    “Then why do you arrange it on your own?”


    But if you let it go, it''s not me.


    “The point I want to make now is why are you meddling with the kids'' rtionship? And apparently, even if I apologize right here and now, I don’t think it will change after all.”


    And there doesn''t seem to be any will to fix it.


    “…What do you want?”


    “It was Heia who sent the favor to Aimet in the first ce. And it''s your little brother who''s been grumpy there.”


    I just cut and tidied it up.


    “Then don’t interfere. Let them do whatever they want.”


    “...Even so, the will of the family.”


    “You’re not even officially engaged, are you?”


    He also says nothing about the point that there is no justification.


    Apparently, he wants to do something behind the scenes, so he seems to be doing tricks in advance.


    Yes, it ismon in aristocratic societies.


    I know that this academy is the foundation stage for that.


    So I''m going to throw it all away saying ‘what is that?''.


    “Even if you say this, it’s the same with us meddling in children’s rtionships.”


    I shrugged.


    “In short, this is it, right? Thedy of the Karet family likes our little girl, but your little girl has her eyes on her.”


    I said it, but I thought that this was a piece of shit.


    “I have to sort this out anyway.”


    This is why I don''t like romance between aristocrats.


    If you go further, it bes a quarrel between the families.


    Of course, if it gets to that point, I can help out a little for Asha.


    That''s a solution I don''t like.


    Above all, it takes too long.


    “So let’s sort things out right here.”


    “Ah, Mr. Arell!”


    Asha hurriedly tried to stop me, but I stretched out my arm to stop it.


    “Cleaning up… what are you going to do?”


    “There is an easy way from the old days, right? The way nobles settle things when they get tangled up in love affairs.”


    I deliberately put on a viinous smile.


    “Let’s just put it all out there and stick together and decide.”


    I challenged myself to a duel.


    Dueling is a means ofmunication between great nobles.


    Because the fist is always thew to be honest.


    Does the other person not know what to say?


    A heartfelt left hook will make sense.


    My preference is to grow the board, make a mess, throw it away, and then clean it up.


    * * *


    After I threw the te away, Asha, who had been lost in her mind as if her soul had escaped, suddenly came to her senses and screamed.


    “Arel! I usually follow Arel-nim no matter how he wants, but not this time!”


    “…No, you never followed me, did you? Always nagging and stopping me.”


    “I don''t mean that! Why would you make such an offer...


    What Asha is talking about is a duel challenge I just made to a guy named Gardel.


    I just remembered what happened a little while ago.


    “Are you going to have a duel?”


    A duel is not what I do.


    It is a serious sin to fight against the royal family, no matter how misunderstood the conflict may be.


    “don''t worry. i don''t fight The fight is right here.”


    I pointed to Asha.


    “That''s my escort knight, Ashada.”


    “???? yes?”


    Asha blinked as if she still didn''t understand.


    First of all, the answer is simple because the family over there looked down on the Pernil family, and now such noises areing out.


    Then, it would be easy if Asha, the eldest daughter of the Pernil family, directly stepped on it.


    There''s nothing more embarrassing than being crushed by someone from a family you looked down on.


    Even after being smashed, what if you continue to have bad luck?


    Then I''ll step in and make a bigughing stock.


    “I promise to be fair.”


    “It''s not that kind of problem. There is no way that Sir Pernil is fighting a duel...


    “Yes, the one fighting against him is that side.”


    I pointed Gardel directly to him.


    Let the eldest son and the eldest daughter go together.


    “Arel-sama, I don’t like to say things like this. I was even the leader of the 13th Knights.”


    “Yes, I guess.”


    It''s not an easy position to get an academy instructor, though.


    Of course, there must have been some personnel adjustments behind the scenes.


    “Are you suggesting a duel despite knowing that?”


    “Hey, this is my exclusive escort, right?


    Don''t you think there''s a huge difference in rank between a royal escort knight and a knightmander?”


    Being royalty is so convenient.


    If you stick it anywhere, it bes a visible word.


    Long live magical brand royalty.


    “If there is no merit, I will attach it.”


    To keep him from refusing, I attack him.


    “I know that your family is having a bit of a headache with the food shortage due to poor harvests. So, if you win, I will help you with the food situation.”


    These days, because of war preparations, food trade between each territory is quite inconvenient.


    In particr, the estate of the Luchen family is located in the west, where farming is rtively sluggish this year.


    Of course, this year, it must have been a concern.


    When I put this as bait, I could clearly see that he was conflicted.
