chapter 34
34 – Are you willing to take it easy?
“….”
Aias Mentine de Littorio. The owner of only three grand dukes in the empire.
He did not lose his composure even in the face of a sudden surprise attack from the Western Kingdom.
But at this moment, he couldn’t help but be surprised at how much he was the Grand Duke of Littorio.
“What is this?”
“It was sent by the lady, but written on the outside is an apology letter from John Nassen.”
“Apology… ?”
“Yes. It is even said that the second son of Baron John Nassen wrote it himself.”
I doubted my ears. It was a truly pitiful thing.
A lot of time has already passed since that incident, when his son was injured.
It was clear that it was extremely unpleasant, but this side was the first to provide the cause.
He did something out of place as a son of a great aristocratic family.
In the first place, John Nassen is not a family to apologize for.
So no one, including the Grand Duke himself, expected an apology.
But now, a sudden apology letter?
‘There is something.’
The Grand Duke held out his hand, and the butler politely offered a letter.
When you think of John Nassen, the image that comes to mind is, of course, a rough look.
Not only words and actions, but also all aspects of life.
Most of the Empire would think so. Because the Grand Duke is like that right now.
However, the Grand Duke burst into laughter when he checked the envelope that contained the letter.
From the outside, it gives off a very neat and sophisticated atmosphere.
I wondered if Elga had done it, but I wondered if a daughter of the Grand Duchess would even be involved in such a thing.
After that, I saw the words written in very beautiful handwriting on pure white paper.
Such doubts dissipated in an instant, leaving only absurd laments.
‘Is this truly an article written by John Nassen’s direct descendant?’
It’s not just the handwriting that is beautiful. The language is as colorful as the handwriting.
There was none of the monotony or harshness associated with Jon Nassen.
From the start, he asks how he is doing in an extremely polite tone, and lightly praises the grand duchess once.
And after that, it was like writing a plaster sin.
I feel ashamed even myself reading how low-key it was written.
He’s putting himself down as much as possible while giving the Grand Duchess Littorio a boost.
With this level of content, it is safe to say that it was written by a vassal of the grand duke’s family, not another noble family.

Judging by the contents alone, it seems that the book has shrunk in front of the authority of the Grand Duke of Littorio.
If others see it, they will surely think so.
But Archduke Littorio’s eyes were still shining with a cold light.
– … Fortunately, the merciful young lady of the Grand Duchess of Littorio accepted my apology with a gentle heart and relieved my burden…. –
Fishik-.
As expected, I knew it would be like this. Yes. This is what John Nassen is all about.
I thought he was taking an extremely low profile, but he hid the real meaning inside.
‘I apologized to Elgar. That would be like Elgar, that child, explaining himself as the representative of Littorio. There was no way he didn’t know that there would be a backlash within the family, but he did so.’
That’s interesting. Very funny The Archduke smiled.
Although he is the father of three siblings, he drove them all into political strife.
It is a position where nothing can be won without fighting.
Even if you are lucky enough to get it, it will just be taken away.
You have to prove it. I’m more suited to this position than anyone else.
I have to prove it to my father, to the people in my family, and to myself.
Because I know very well how difficult and arduous it is to be the Grand Duke.
He tested his children with an extremely cold appearance.
From that point of view, the first fell out and was confined to the castle.
The second seemed to be going well, but suddenly got twisted without mercy.
At that timing, Elgar, who had been silent until now, entered the main stage.
And it wasn’t long before that John Nassen personally revealed the meaning of his apology.
Is this a coincidence? Was it just a matter of course when Kyle entered the school?
‘No way. Probably not.’
Prince Littorio already had a hunch that something was going on between Kyle and his daughter.
I could figure it out right away in the next part.
– Please accept this apology, and about the sediment that may remain…. –
To get an apology and get rid of any remnants that might be left behind.
By the way, Littorio decided to remain silent about what happened that day.
He didn’t even ask for an apology even though the family’s henchman was injured.
Even if sediment remains, you shouldn’t show it like that.
The head of the household had nothing to do with it. Because I made a decision.
But this time, a freshman who has been in the school for less than a month mentioned it.
What does this mean? It means that there has already been a conversation between the two men and women.
‘There are things that annoy me at the academy. Honey, please take good care of it. Is this?’
This is truly arrogant content.
Not to anyone else, but to dare to send such a message to the Archduke of Littorio.
I would rather not hide my true feelings and directly convey the contents.
Isn’t this a provocation, saying, ‘If you can solve the meaning contained in this, try to solve it.’
“Heh heh heh.”
A smile blooms. An unbearable smile like that.
I never thought there would be such an outstanding talent. John Nassen, in the world of those terrifying, non-humans, too good to use their brains.
I never thought there would be someone who could write something like this and think like this!
Even if it is not so, the composition of the succession is confused and the atmosphere of the vassals is also disturbed.
I was deliberately silent in order to select a successor with greater abilities than
.
Anyway, it seems that the archduke was stepping back, making such a mistake.
What he wants now is a future heir, not an immediate grand duke.
But if you keep hitting your feet, who will be watching it quietly?
“Look, butler.”
“Yes, Archduke.”
“Let’s throw a little party tomorrow.”
“Are you talking about the party? May I ask what subject you are going to do?”
Then Archduke Littorio closed the letter and parted his lips.
“A party that gives consolation to the vassals. I want to hear a little bit about my children. I want to ask you a little bit about how the children are doing at the academy and what they are doing.”
The time has come to change the retainers, Grand Duke Littorio thought.

“The Princess. Are you really okay?”
“Why? I’m scared?”
“Of course it is scary. How many more will those people stare at?”
In the 10th round of the Empire, Logan Stefan licks his lips and urges his steps.
My stomach is a bit twisted because I rode the moving magic circle, but I don’t have time to rest.
I remember I was resting quietly at home just a few hours ago.
I happened to be standing not at home, but in the cold, desolate northern land.
As usual, a messenger did not come and deliver the imperial order.
I was summoned to the imperial palace, had an audience with the emperor, and received direct orders.
“Logan Stefan. You, along with the 5th princess, head to the north right now.”
“Your Majesty?”
“The preparations for the moving magic circle have already been completed. Let’s leave immediately.”
Sudden yellow light. But whatever it is, it must be followed.
I swore allegiance to the Empire and promised to work for the Imperial Family.
No matter how low, or how dangerous, I will definitely do it.
Thinking of that, Logan heard the details of the situation from the Minister of the Ministry of the Interior.
“Western kingdoms unite? Conciliate the nobility of the empire there?”
“Yes, Sir Logan.”
“Kingdom flies are very anxious to die.”
With this in mind, it is understandable that the emperor suddenly issued an order.
With the two of you and the 5th princess Julika, erasing a betrayed family is no big deal.
Why is the top 10 empire called the top 10 empire? .
“By the way, Sir Logan will be going to Baron John Nassen.”
“… Yes? Wait. What did you say now? Where are you going?”
“I am Baron John Nassen.”
“….”
Have you ever done anything disloyal to the Emperor? Think carefully.
Otherwise, I couldn’t tell myself, the 10th power of the Empire, to go to Baron John Nassen’s family.
I’m sure they’ll light up their eyes as soon as they go. Let’s stick together.
While shouting that he wanted to find out how strong the power of the 10 empires really is!
He is definitely confident in his own strength. He also has the pride of not losing to anyone.
But Baron John Nassen is a collection of really crazy people who go beyond that.
If I go, I think it will be one of the two, whether I die from defeat or win and fight again and then die from exhaustion.
“No, are you saying that the flies of the kingdom really pacified Baron John Nassen before that?”
“The two of you are going to find out.”
“Why are the princess and I going? I am not sending messengers.”
“That way, I will send you right into the territory.”
I had nothing to refute. John Nassen would stay that way.
If you tell me that two of the 10 members of the Empire have come, they will open the door without even notifying the family head.
And then we’ll all get together and take a look. Are you really strong?! Do.
“The Princess. What if John Nassen was pacified?”
“Don’t ask the obvious. It’s not even worth answering.”
Yes. It’s an obvious question. If he was appeased, it would be a battle, not a departure.
At least, these two could somehow connect with each other and aim for an angle to escape.
In terms of speed, he has one of the best skills in the top 10.
It seems that the emperor thought of that and chose the princess and himself.
What happened after that was really a breeze.
When you arrive in front of the baron family and reveal your identity as one of the top 10 in the Empire, the door opens.
As I entered, all kinds of eyes flew in from all directions.
Most of those eyes were ‘I want to fight’ or ‘I’m strong, right? Wonder. I’m dying of curiosity.’ Things like that.
‘Damn it. Really… They’re monsters.’
Except for the top 10, there are only a handful of people who can deal with him anywhere in the empire.
But here, not even a single guard. No, even a single villager was threatening.
If he dared to fight, Logan would most likely win, but his body wouldn’t be normal.
“Come with me. Top 10 people.”
Names and origins do not even catch the eye of these fighting peoples.
The only thing that matters is whether you are strong, and only that fact determines their judgment.
“Coming.”
At Yulica’s words, Logan glanced up.
And then he muttered, ‘Fuck.’ He put his head down.
Turbuck, tumble-.
At the top of the stairs, the owner of this small estate was coming down.
Holding terribly heavy-looking dumbbells in each hand, not one, but two.
