"Ok."
Seeing the look in the teacher's eyes, I felt that asking any more questions would be pointless.
"Teacher, you'll be staying a few more days, right?"
Although the teacher hasn't agreed yet, it would be nice to stay a few more days. After all, I just met the teacher, and I would feel very uncomfortable if I didn't stay a few more days.
"Yes, I'll spend a few more days with Rudy."
"It was a gentle voice," said Lockheed.
"Okay, goodnight then, Professor Roxie."
"Okay, goodnight, Rudy."
After saying goodnight to my teacher, I put on my shoes and was about to go back to my room, but as soon as I got to the door, I suddenly remembered something I had always wanted to do but had never done.
"What's wrong, Rudy?"
"Teacher... tonight... can I... sleep with you...?"
"Of course, but Rudy, don't do anything bad."
Oh, the teacher agreed? That's great!
"Yes, after all, you are my teacher."
I took off my shoes and coat and lay down on the teacher's bed.
At night, my teacher held my hand and whispered in my ear, "Goodnight, Rudy."
It's hard to believe that I, a NEET who's been into adult games for over a decade and who gets aroused just from hearing a few sensitive words, actually slept soundly.
Is this the magic of Professor Roxie?
……
Good morning, Professor Roxie.
"teacher?"
Where did the teacher go? Wait, there's a note left beside me.
Dear Rudy
When asked about your marriage to the young lady, you seemed quite troubled. Is it because you're tempted by the allure of the nobility and worried that it might conflict with your studies at La Noah Magic University?
If I teach you King-level magic here, you probably won't go to magic university again.
Since that's the case, let's meet again at the Magic University. Then you can come and ask me for guidance openly and honestly, and I will definitely teach you.
Then, let's meet again at La Noa Magic University.
Respectfully submitted by Lockheed Martin
……
The teacher is gone.
Chapter Twenty-One: The Engagement (Part One)
……
As evening approached, the setting sun cast its last rays, making me feel a little sleepy. I yawned, ending my day's patrol of the village, and returned to my own yard.
My two lovely daughters are combing the hair of my neighbor, a long-eared woman with emerald green hair.
That girl came to my house almost every day, learning court etiquette from Lilia, healing magic from Janis, and magic on her own using the books Rudy had left behind. She basically learned everything she could.
At her age, she would be highly sought after, not only in Buena Village, but even in the capital, to become a guardian sorcerer for a noble family. It's just a pity she has green hair.
It should be about six months before Rudy returns from Roya.
"Uncle Paul, welcome home."
The girl sitting between my two daughters in the yard stood up and greeted me when she saw me.
I hadn't observed her closely before, but this girl was already quite pretty.
"Dad, welcome back."
My two daughters also greeted me along with the girl. My younger daughter, Aisha, even ran over to help me untie the sword from my waist and bring it into the house.
Normally I never leave my sword behind, except when I'm having sex with a woman. But ever since my two little daughters have grown up and can run around freely, I'm happy to hand the sword over to them for safekeeping when I come home.
"Well, it's about time I went home. Goodbye, Uncle Paul."
When I get home, it's about the same time the girl should be going home. Sometimes, when it gets late, I'll take her home.
"Be careful on the road, Sylphie."
As I watched that small figure grow smaller and smaller in the sunset, I took my two daughters back into the house.
“My dear, there is a letter for you, sent from the capital.”
As Janice trimmed the flowers on the windowsill, she pointed to the mailbox on the table and said.
The capital? Could it be from my father?
Although I have been away from home for many years, it is still easy for people to find my home.
But what a joke, my father has been gone for who knows how many years.
My younger brother, Pilemon, is also a minister in the capital. Does this scumbag brother still remember me?
Maybe the letter was sent by him.
I opened the mailbox with some doubt, and there was a very long letter inside.
“Philip…”
Last year, Philip succeeded as the lord of the territory of Fituia. Although he did not hold a ministerial position in the capital, he still had to visit the monarch regularly. I knew these rules. Although it was a bit of a surprise, I wondered what he would send me.
It couldn't have been some trivial small talk; it's most likely related to Rudy.
The letter was long, densely packed with words, but one line caught my eye the moment I opened it:
"Rudeus and Alice are deeply in love and are willing to fulfill their late father's wishes to become a force within the Boreas family. We hope Mr. Paul will agree to allow Rudeus to marry into the Boreas family."
Upon seeing this, my vision went black, and I nearly stumbled and fell to the ground. Luckily, there was a chair behind me, which I sat down on.
The thing I was worried about when I sent Rudy to Roya finally happened.
I made it clear to Philip on Rudy's birthday that I didn't want him to get involved in the shady dealings of the nobility.
The nobles of Asura are disgusting, and I don't know why Rudy would have the idea of becoming a high-ranking noble and embarking on a career in government with Philip's backing.
Moreover, it involved marrying into the family.
If it were me, I would never make such a decision.
But perhaps I think this way because I come from the Notos family and have a deep-seated aversion to nobility. Rudy may be young, but he's very thoughtful, and maybe he has his own considerations.
After all, it was Rudy's decision, and if he was happy with it, I couldn't say anything to him, since I couldn't stop him from doing this.
Perhaps after living in Roya for a few years, Rudy might have developed higher aspirations.
But what about Sylphie? If her son, who's married into the family, marries a concubine, the woman's family will probably look down on him. Should we tell Roltz that his daughter has no chance?
Although Rudy and Silphie were separated in the first place to prevent them from becoming dependent on each other and to avoid tragedy if one of them changed their mind later.
But Hilfi comes almost every day, and she seems deeply in love with Rudy. If it were me, I wouldn't know how to explain it to her. If Roltz found out, if it weren't for his status, he would probably fight tooth and nail to get an explanation from me.
Should I explain this to Sylphie? No, we should wait until Rudy comes back and let him apologize to Sylphie himself.
It's hard to say whether Rudy will come back by then.
……
"Honey, what's wrong? You don't look well. Did your brother send it?"
Janice leaned over the table, looking at me nervously.
I composed myself and thought about it. I realized it was really necessary to tell Janice about this.
"Rudy... is going to marry into the Boreas family."
"Isn't that a good thing? Rudy will become a high-ranking nobleman, and he'll definitely be set for life from now on."
After she finished speaking, a hint of disappointment appeared on Janice's face.
"I thought Rudy would... but unfortunately, Sylphie..."
Will Rudy come back?
I shook my head. "I don't know."
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Lilia cooking, Norren frantically trying to help but unable to, and Aisha helping Lilia. Suddenly, other possibilities came to mind.
"Maybe he'll come back. After all, Rudy has two sisters he hasn't seen much of."
The golden sunset streamed through the window and fell on Janice's face, which stirred up some impulsive thoughts in me again.
"How about... we give Rudy a younger brother?"
After hearing this, Janice gave me a shy, mischievous grin, and then tapped my head with a wooden spoon from the table.
"Then you'll have to ask Norren and Aisha if they agree, darling."
……
"Lord Paul! Quick! Quick! Help! Monsters are attacking the village!"
The guard at the outpost suddenly knocked on my door.
What?! Impossible! I was at the outpost all day, and I just finished patrolling the area around the village.
I suddenly noticed what Philip wrote in the last line of his letter:
"I will dispel the doubts of Mr. Paul and Rudius."
Philip!
"Take me there quickly!"
Chapter Twenty-Two: The Engagement (Part Two)
Chapter Twenty-Two: The Engagement (Part Two)
To dispel my and Rudy's doubts...
Hilufi?
On Rudy's birthday, Silphi kissed Rudy in front of everyone at the party, and when she left, she even...
No, I can't think like that. This is just a monster invasion. What a coincidence!
"drive!"
"drive!"
"Timon! Are you sure this is the direction?!"
This road is very familiar; it's the direction to the Roltz family's house.
"Sir Paul, that's right!"
hateful!
I shouldn't have brought Sylphie that day!
If this leads to the death of the Roltz family, I...
……
The worst fears have come true: the Roltz family, the Marion family… all the houses in this area have been reduced to ruins.
Judging from the footprints on the ground, they were likely inhabited by wild boars and attacking fighting dogs, which are quite common in this area.
Perhaps I'm overthinking it. This place isn't very close to the forest, so while monster invasions are a low-probability event, occasionally lost monsters do attack this area.
Furthermore, it's highly unlikely that anyone capable of commanding monsters to attack people could be found within the Kingdom of Asura. I'd heard of such things during the adventurer era, but those were legends from the Demon Continent, and it's almost impossible for them to appear within the Kingdom of Asura.
Hopefully, Roltz and Marion are still alive.
With this feeling in mind, I walked towards the ruins.
In the era of adventurers, such scenes would be commonplace in dungeons. But since arriving in Buena Village, no, since returning to the Kingdom of Asra, I have rarely seen such scenes.
