Countess Cianella’s Male Slave

30. Bronte (2)

I can’t just sit still like this.

Before shaking hands with Bronte, I gave strength.

Kwak.

My physical abilities that have awakened mana are superior to those of other men who have not.

Bronte’s expression crumpled beautifully as his grip strength was no exception.

Baby, I’m finally getting a little angry.

Seeing those drooping eyebrows, the congestion that had been filling up in my chest finally went down.

“…You. What are you doing?”

“What do you mean?”

“You gave strength to your hands.”

“Ah, if that’s the case…”

I covered my mouth with my right hand, making an expression of regret on my face.

Acting like that with the most exaggerated gestures and facial expressions, on the contrary, Bronte’s expression rotted.

“Since I have awakened my mana… Sometimes I forget her improved physical ability…”

“…I heard that even women who have just awakened to mana don’t make such trivial mistakes.”

“That’s not a man like me, but a woman’s story, isn’t it?”

“What nonsense—”

“Have you ever seen a male awakened person besides me?”

Bronte clenched her molars.

Seeing that he doesn’t even hum anymore, it seems he’s been properly hooked on my provocation.

“…Nothing.”

“As expected. Bronte-sama, Awakened males are more clumsy at handling their bodies than females, so sometimes they lose their strength, right?”

Since he kindly explained it with a smile, there is a saying that you can’t spit on a smiling face.

Bronte swallowed the powder, holding her mouth shut.

Do that with a little strength in your hand.

Siabelle is famous for being a responsible and popular knight, but why is her exclusive servant so petty?

More than Bronte’s karma, who gave me all of them first.

Seeing Bronte smiling and smiling at her, it was so nice to see her throw out something she didn’t like.

“I gave you my name…please tell me yours too.”

“As long as it’s my name. Call me Ray.”

“Hmm…”

What’s your name?

As I spat out the words roughly, Bronte cursed my name a few times by herself.

It seems like it was for memorizing my name, but it made me feel very bad when he called my name mixed with his characteristic nasal sound.

“By the way. Why did Sione-nim and you come here?”

“Do sisters need a reason to talk to each other?”

“Ugh. That’s not what you meant.”

“Hmm… Well, if you have to give a reason, there’s one, but…”

Bronte’s expression began to look grim now as I was wasting my time by taking my luck away.

If this is enough, your anger has been relieved to some extent, Hani.

It would be nice to move on to something a little more productive.

“This time, Shione-nim also joined the monster subjugation of the Beltrin Mountains. You are heading to the mountain range with Siabelle-nim.”

“…That Sione?”

But my thoughts were immediately shattered with his words.

Unlike the stature of his master, this author was an attendant who was not inferior.

I just wonder how a person like this could stay with the well-liked Siabelle.

I thought I’d watch it a little longer, but it seemed that if I didn’t get angry like this, that attitude wouldn’t change until I saw the end.

Even if I tell you to be careful with words, it’s obvious that they won’t understand.

It’s a bit cumbersome, but I’ll have to hit the vase with my mind before I die.

“Bronte.”

I completely erased my expression and took a step closer to him.

The cold voice that came out of my mouth reached Brontë’s ears.

When I looked down at him with a completely changed atmosphere, he took a step back.

“It would be better if you try to talk in moderation. Are you at least the Grand Duke of the kingdom?”

“What, what are you saying…!”

“No matter how much Cianella’s subordinate servants do. You dare to speak so easily to disrespect Cianella’s princess, Sione.”

“…….”

“Bronte, do you want your rude words to reach the ears of Siabelle and Sione?”

“…No.”

“If that’s the case, please follow me.”

Bronte began to shake his body.

It was also because I was completely caught up in the atmosphere.

It was also thanks to the words of warning spoken with mana.

Although Siabelle and Sione beyond the door are barely aware of the enemy.

My words, which blended with the atmosphere and had the slightest power of coercion and murder, were enough to shake that Bronte.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with that.

If you still scream like this, you can tell Sione or Siabelle right away.

I don’t know why this bastard keeps repeating the same mistake I warned him about before in front of the restaurant.

This is Bronte’s last chance.

“An attendant is like an attendant.”

“An attendant…Like an attendant…”

“Your voice is small.”

“…A servant is like a servant.”

“Good.”

Only then did I let go of my expression and step back.

Bronte looked at me with a tired expression.

Well, since you look at me like that, what are you going to do?

If you twist it, you shouldn’t have gotten involved with me from the beginning.

I looked at him with a bright face without losing, and he lowered his gaze first.

Now it seemed like we were in a situation to talk about, so I started asking what I wanted to ask.

“Well, that’s what I’m asking. Mr. Bronte. Do you know what kind of monsters usually appear in the Beltrin Mountains?”

“…In the Beltrin Mountains, orcs and goblins and—”

“Bronte, the way you look and talk… Isn’t it too dark?”

Who can see me and think I’m a bad person?

“Ah…”

“You smile. Bronte’s smile is much more natural and pleasing to look at than such a dark expression.”

“Ahahahaha.”

“Good.”

Bronte faked a smile and looked at me.

What the hell is this bastard, I can clearly read what his gaze means, but that’s about it.

I can close my eyes and move on.

“Can you explain further?”

Bronte nodded quietly.

“The Beltrin Mountains are mainly inhabited by goblins, orcs, and gray wolves.”

“Isn’t there a monster that’s more threatening than I thought?”

Not to mention goblins.

Orcs and gray wolves were not very difficult monsters either.

When you think of an orc, you think of a huge muscle pig, but the reality is a little different.

He’s so stupid that if he sets a trap in advance, he’ll often run into it and get caught.

Orcs had nothing to boast about other than the strength that came from their fat and gigantic bodies, let alone muscles.

As for the gray wolves, if you catch just one individual, the center of the pack, either with magic or with a bow, it will disintegrate in no time.

Hitting the gray wolf’s head would be more than enough for a knight of Siabelle’s caliber.

“They’re not threatening…But their fertility is monstrous. If you don’t subdue them regularly, they’ll come down to your territory.”

“Well, I guess so.”

However, their problem was their fertility.

Apparently, around this time of year, the number of individuals is increasing a lot, so it seems to be subjugating.

Orcs and gray wolves are just the bottom line that I can cover for Shione.

At that level, I think it would be okay for Shion to go subjugation to practice her bow.

“Are there any other monsters?”

“Occasionally, monsters like Ou and Arachne appear… But those monsters are active only in the deep mountains, so you won’t encounter them unless you go looking for them.”

“Hmm.”

I nodded at Bronte’s words.

Both of them are difficult to deal with now, but well.

If you don’t look for it, there’s nothing to see.

All you have to do is think about beating orcs or wolves.

This time, it is enough to accumulate a lot of practical experience with bows that Shione lacks.

While I was thinking that, my attention turned to Bronte again, who was watching me.

“Is Bronte-sama also following Siabelle-sama up the Beltrin Mountains?”

“…Of course. I have to wait on Siabelle-sama.”

“No matter what, the mountain where the monsters come from must be dangerous. I won’t send other servants.”

“Siabelle-sama doesn’t like unfamiliar servants other than me… She said that it’s not that dangerous, so it’s better for me to stay by her side.”

“In that case… I’ll have to see you for a while. I’m also following Sione-nim up the mountain range.”

With that said, I reached out my hand to Bronte.

“I will continue to take good care of you?”

Let’s reach out for a handshake.

Flinch.

Bronte shuddered.

“Well… Please…”

Me and Bronte shook hands again.

He was quite hesitant to shake my hand, probably thinking that I would give him strength again.

Meanwhile, Siabelle’s door opened and Siabelle and Sione began to come out of the room.

I strained my hand when I saw Bronte’s expression so stiff.

“Ah…!”

Bronte looked me in the face at my sudden action.

I smiled at him and licked his lips.

Smile. Or

He picked up the corner of his mouth, realizing what I meant before I even finished my words.

Only then did I loosen my grip.

Sione came out of the room first, then Siabelle and I saw Bronte shaking hands.

After Siabel Cianella saw Bronte’s light smile, she smiled at me and said,

“Looks like Bronte made a new friend. Please take care of me.”

“Of course. Right, Bronte?”

Kwak.

I tightened my hand.

Bronte, feeling the power coming in little by little, spoke hastily.

“All, of course, Ray.”

Yes, how nice it is to live together like this.

Now the world is working properly.
