A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood

Prologue – Always Misunderstood Young master

The only part of my face I don’t like If there is, it is my eyes.

Strangely enough, I was the only one in my family whose eyes were narrow and slit.

I don’t know if it’s for this reason, but when I talk to people, it’s strange that people try to avoid my eyes.

Then, if I even met my eyes, people would get scared and run away.

So I used the politest possible way of speaking so as not to intimidate people, and it became a habit.

It is okay for nobles to speak rudely to commoners, but I didn’t bother to correct it because I didn’t want to intimidate people.

“Whoops. Let me ask you something.”

I tried to ask a man passing by politely with a smile on my lips.

Because today was the day when the strawberry dessert series I had been waiting for started to go on sale.

I went out to the city after receiving permission to buy this, but I accidentally got lost.

In this case, the quickest way to find your way was to ask a passer-by for directions.

“Sah, save me! I don’t know anything!”

If you try to ask passers-by for directions like this, nine out of 10 people will be begging for help.

I wonder if I can really be misunderstood like this.

I don’t mind misunderstandings, but please be quiet.

It was because if you prayed for me to save me and cluttered up the surroundings, a guard would appear out of nowhere.

Since I didn’t directly harm him, I could be released with a simple investigation, but there are times when even going to the investigation is annoying.

Especially, on a day like today when a new dessert comes out, it’s annoying to go to investigate even more.

“Shhh. Can you be quiet? If the guards show up, you and I could be annoyed.”

I asked him to be quiet.

I asked politely, smiling as much as I could.

“Three, four…save me! Save people!”

But as if betraying my expectations, he screamed for help.

It’s a big deal.

I could already hear the sound of people running this way from far away.

Listening to the sound of footsteps, it seemed that they belonged to the guards guarding the city.

“This way! I heard a noise from here!”

As expected, guards belonging to the City Security Bureau showed up.

Ehh, today I’m in a situation where I have to be dragged away by the security bureau and have to be interrogated without being able to move.

“There! Reports have come in that you are harassing good citizens! If you follow me, I won’t harm you!”

“Oops, oops. It’s embarrassing. I just wanted to ask for directions…”

I explained my situation to the guards in the most polite way possible.

“Heee

But the guards say they will arrest me.

Ugh. I warned you.

You raised things that would end well.

“Are you saying you’re going to arrest me? That will put you in trouble, okay?”

I politely asked the guards.

It was because it was expected that something very bad would happen to them if I was taken away by the guards.

“Hey! Originally, villains pretend to be nice on the outside, but have a sinister plan on the inside! Come along if you don’t want to get hurt!”

“……I can’t help it. I will comply with your request.”

I didn’t want to escalate the matter, but if I resisted here, the matter would escalate, so I was easily arrested by the guards.

After being dragged away by the guards, I began to be interrogated in earnest in the guard building.

“Speak plainly. What have you been up to in this city?”

“I came to buy strawberry desserts that are starting to be sold at the dessert shop in front of me. Is there anything wrong?”

“I-Ik! Tell me the truth! Strawberry dessert is an excuse, are you really spying on this city?”

I told the truth, but the guards start interrogating me to tell the truth.

No, I’m really here to buy strawberry dessert?

It’s a big deal anyway. If you don’t go fast, they’ll all be sold out.

“Whoops. I only spoke the truth.”

I was a bit angry at his attitude of ignoring my sincerity, but I answered politely.

It was because he knew how hard the guards work day and night for the safety of citizens.

We couldn’t be careless with those who struggled for the safety of citizens.

“This bastard, though!”

Looking at this guard who was pointing his finger in front of me and speaking passionately, there was a deep darkness in his eyes.

It’s pitiful. He seemed to have sharpened his nerves from the arduous task.

“Hey! What are you doing!”

At that time, a man who appeared to be a high-ranking member of the guards in plate armor opened the door and came in and shouted at the guards.

“Chu, loyalty! Meet the guard captain!”

The guard who saw him rose from his seat and saluted with an angle.

“What is this bastard doing here! Do you know who he is?”

Unfortunately, this guard got his shin cut by the captain of the guard.

It must be painful. Looking at it earlier, it seems that there are no shin guards, but there is a high possibility that you will get hurt if you get caught in that state by the sheet metal boots.

“I’m sorry, Bocchan. This guy is a newcomer, so he doesn’t seem to know much about you. I’ll teach you well.”

Ah, you’re new. Then it makes sense.

New recruits are always nervous with the thought of doing well, so they often make mistakes.

Now that I know that person is a new recruit, I, a nobleman, should be considerate of the new guard’s position.

What would a newly deployed rookie know?

I just did as instructed above.

However, I hoped that I would learn a little about flexibility from next time.

“Oops, oops. If you’re a newcomer, that might be the case. Fufu, please be careful next time. New security guard.”

“Thank you!”

I was dignified as a noble and generously forgave the new guards.

That’s how I was released from the guard and was able to go to the dessert shop.

There is a long distance from the guard building to the dessert shop, so you have to hurry.

The desserts there are so popular that if it’s even a little late, they might not be sold out.

“Sorry sir! Today’s desserts are all sold out! I’m so sorry!”

However, during the investigation, the strawberry desserts were sold out.

“Guy, you seem to be a nobleman, but if you tell me your name, I’ll make arrangements tomorrow…”

“Stop, stop. Is it okay if I don’t talk while trembling? I’m not such a narrow-minded nobleman? Huhufu…”

I gently stretched out her hand to her employee to reassure her.

It was to encourage her in her efforts to make and sell her desserts today.

“Hee, hee!”

But as I moved my hand toward the waitress, she looked at me with her terrified expression and then collapsed with her foam on her face.

“This, this. This is a very difficult situation.”

In the end, I was able to call the guards and let the waiter go home.

When will people know my sincerity?

“Whoops, I will never give up until people understand my true feelings.”

Yes. You can do it. Until the day people know my sincerity someday!

“hahahaha. But that store’s strawberry desserts are really good…”

However, it was very disappointing that I couldn’t taste the strawberry dessert at that store.

It was sold out before the end of the day, so I could guess its popularity.

Even the boss of the city’s underworld likes its desserts, so this shop couldn’t be tampered with by any underworld organization.

If there was a big liver guy who tried to get protection tax by touching this store, it was obvious that neither rats nor birds would end up with a corpse stuck in the sewer in the back alley.

So I went back to the store the next day, but there was a small sign hanging on the door of the store.

[Sorry. Due to personal reasons, the store can no longer be operated.]

[Thank you to everyone who has loved our store.]

It was a sign announcing the store’s closure.

Perhaps he quit the store yesterday because he felt his life was in danger because of me.

“……Whoops. That’s right. There are days like this.”

In the end, I couldn’t taste the strawberry dessert I was looking forward to so much.

Bye bye, my strawberry dessert.

“That house. It was a really delicious house…”

It’s unfortunate, but it can’t be helped.

Since this kind of thing is common, I’ve gotten used to it now.

However, I hope that someday people will know my sincerity.

I am a person who really loves peace and wants to be friendly with everyone.
