Jobless Reincarnation: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events

Noren stopped at the doorway and said coldly, "What am I to you?"

"you"

This term not only includes Rudius himself, but also, from Norren's perspective, Paul and Janis.

"They are family."

Rudius said resolutely.

"Family? And this is how you treat me!?"

Noren turned to face Rudius and roared, "I know, I'm superfluous to you!"

"Whether it's learning magic, arithmetic, or writing, I know I can't compare to Aisha!"

Noren gradually choked up, tears filling his reddened eyes, which had clearly been building up for a long time.

This outburst is exactly what Rudius wanted to see.

"But...but...but I don't understand why I can't stay with my parents like Aisha. They tell me to go to Roya, so I have to go. They tell me to come to the capital, so I have to come. If I don't want to come, I get beaten up. I'm treated like an object, tossed around. I don't want to be like that!"

Rudius was somewhat surprised to hear Noren say such things. He wasn't surprised by Noren's experiences, but rather by the fact that Noren could utter such words, which didn't sound like something a nine-year-old child could put together.

Rudius was not surprised that Noren harbored resentment towards his family, but who was behind Noren's thoughts and words?

Rudius couldn't help but wonder.

"Noren, you must understand that you are the legitimate daughter of the Grerat family. For the sake of this family, the legitimate son always has to make some sacrifices."

As Noren's emotions gradually calmed down, Rudius gently wiped away her tears. "I'm sorry, Noren. I wasn't there at the time, so I had to make you suffer. But now I can promise you that I will never make you suffer again."

"Really?"

"Yes, really, I promise you."

Seeing Rudius's serious expression, Noren, a nine-year-old boy, softened. Children are easy to coax; a simple promise can make them feel satisfied.

Just like how Rudeus tricked Noren into getting on the carriage with a mere word, and then deliberately didn't stop, Rudeus completely forgot about all that bullying of Noren with a single promise.

"Come on, let your brother hug you, just like when you were little."

Rudius opened his arms, waiting for Noren to pounce.

"Hmph, I won't."

Noren wiped away her tears, turned around, covered her mouth, and unconsciously burst out laughing.

"Fine, if you won't let me hug you, then get out of the car and I'll take you somewhere."

Rudeus stepped down from the other side of the carriage and went to Noren's side. For the first time, Noren voluntarily took Rudeus's hand, though only because the carriage was too high and he needed to use it for leverage.

……

At dinner, Rudius and Norren returned to the mansion, much to the surprise of everyone, including James and his wife, as well as Albert, Hilfi, and Alice.

For the first time, they saw Rudius and Noren, the brother and sister, holding hands as they walked home together—something they had never seen before.

……

Northern border of the Kingdom of Asura, Donadi territory

……

"You demon, speak now! Did you steal this money and these two staffs?!"

A group of soldiers surrounded a blue-haired girl who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old and berated her.

The girl was petite and delicate, with a fair face and bright blue eyes. Her long, light blue hair was styled into three braids at the back of her head. The soldiers could tell from her hair color alone that she must be a child of the demon race.

She was wearing a brown, coarse cloth mage's robe and carrying a huge backpack that was disproportionate to her size, with two staffs that were taller than herself strapped to it.

“My name is Lokishi Migrudia. I am a Water King-level magician and a former teacher at La Noa Magic University. I am not a thief. This is a certificate issued by the principal of La Noa Magic University.”

Loki introduced herself in a serious manner, then secretly took out two Asura gold coins from her pocket, stuffed them into the letter, and handed it to the leading soldier.

"Hey, listen to this! If that's the case, then I'm the Sword God! Hahahaha."

Although the leading soldier did not believe Loki's words, his expression changed noticeably when he took the letter.

"Tell me, what are you going to do upon entering the country?"

"They sought refuge with the Boreas family."

Luo Qixi said in a very serious tone.

"Wait, who are you going to turn to?"

Upon hearing Loki's words, a middle-aged nobleman with a small mustache stopped and asked, "That staff, is it from Rudeus Boreas Grerat?"

He pointed to one of the staffs behind Loki and asked.

“I used to be his teacher.”

Loki nodded and took out the student council seal left by Rudeus to prove her identity.

“I am Stark Zephyrus Grellat. Since you are Lord Rudeus’s teacher, I will treat you as my own teacher as well. Please follow me.”

[Note: Stark Zephyrus Grellat first appears in Chapter 38.]

Chapter 258: Three Women Make a Show

……

Albert and Rudius had already traveled with the caravan to the Milpotts territory, while Silphie remained at the manor to accompany Alice during her pregnancy. Upon learning of Alice's pregnancy, Paul and Janis sent Lilia to the Boreas Manor to take care of Alice's daily life.

Izzo, on the other hand, accompanied the two to Milpotts as a bodyguard. In fact, this was an opportunity that James deliberately created for Albert, hoping that the two children could settle down as soon as possible. As for whether the two of them were willing or not, James, as their father, had no way of knowing.

In the days leading up to Rudius's departure, his face grew paler by the day. Although he had been sleeping in the same bed with Sylphie every night, he was unexpectedly exhausted.

Actually, the one who suffered the most was Sylphie.

"The three of them slept together on Rudy's birthday, so why did Miss Alice get pregnant with Rudy's baby?!"

However, what makes her feel gratified is that such frequent efforts these days will surely yield results!

"Ladies, come and have some fruit."

Lilia entered the room carrying a plate of apples, which had been cut into the shape of cute little bunnies, on an exquisite silver plate.

"Miss Alice, ah~"

The plate was placed on the table, and Lilia picked up a small piece with a fork and considerately offered it to Alice's lips.

"It's not like I can't move on my own."

Alice grumbled, but still obediently opened her mouth.

"After all, young master Rudeus instructed that Miss Alice must be taken good care of."

Lilia fed Alice a piece of apple and then prepared to feed her the next piece.

"Gurgle... gurgle."

Alice's rosy lips and round cheeks moved evenly as she chewed, like a big white rabbit munching on a carrot.

She didn't enjoy this kind of feeding play much. Rudeus had tried it once before coming to the capital, but Hilda stopped him quickly because of various etiquette restrictions. After coming to the capital, she never even thought about it.

However, Alice was thinking about having Rudeus feed her one more time.

"When he comes back, we must do this at least once!"

As she chewed on the apple, Alice made a silent resolution.

"Miss Lilia, I have a question."

After speaking, Hilfi ran to the bedroom door to check on Lilia, then closed the door with relief. Returning to her previous spot, she whispered in Lilia's ear, "You know what to do..."

She had only spoken halfway when Hilfi's originally fair face suddenly turned bright red. She was too shy to say what she was saying, and only her long ears twitched up and down.

Seeing Sylphie's reaction, Alice unconsciously touched her lower abdomen, and Lilia also understood Sylphie's thoughts.

But she just smiled, didn't say anything, and left the room on her own.

After a while, Lilia brought a plate of washed grapes into the room. While feeding Alice the grapes, she secretly slipped a yellowed prescription to Sylphie.

After accepting the prescription, Hilfi hurriedly returned to her room and carefully tucked the medicine under her pillow.

"Dong dong."

"Miss Hilfiet, the lady is looking for you."

Having just hidden the prescription, Hilfi, summoned by the maid, ran all the way to Mrs. James's room.

“Someone from the Royal Academy just came and said that Noren got into a conflict with someone from the upper-class noble family, the Tepokod family. This kind of thing should normally be handled by Rudius, but he’s not here right now, and Alice isn’t available either. Why don’t you go and take a look?”

The lady said slowly and deliberately, "Also, we must be careful because the Tepocoud family also serves Prince Gravel, so we must handle things carefully. On the one hand, we must not cause trouble for Prince Gravel, and on the other hand, we must not lose face for the Boreas family."

"Yes, ma'am."

Hilfi readily agreed.

For her, since she often dealt with Charlotte's nobles while following Cosette around at the magic university, dealing with this matter was not a difficult task for her.

……

Upon arriving at the Magic University, Silphie met Noren and, after inquiring with the teachers, discovered that Noren had only had a minor misunderstanding with the youngest son of Patten Tepokod, the third son of the Tepokod family, and there was no need to contact the Boreas family at all.

After Norren returned to class, Silphie didn't rush to get into the carriage. Instead, she sat in the teacher's office and ordered a fresh cup of tea. She was thinking.

"This is clearly a prank to lure me out of the mansion. Is it a joke? Who would be so bored? And what would their purpose be?"

“Miss Hilfiet, right?”

Hilfi's thoughts were interrupted by a calm male voice. She looked up and saw a tall man standing in front of her.

He was much taller than Rudy, but looked about the same age, and the wisp of brown bangs on his forehead gave him a very distinctive look.

But what is most striking is the family crest on his chest, which is a thorny rose with intertwined roots.

Hilfi recognized the family crest because Lilith had also worn it.

He is a member of the Aiolos family.

This made Sylphie wary, her wine-red eyes fixed on the man before her.

"Who are you?"

"Hilfi asked."

“I am Oswald Aiuros Grerat. My elder sister and you should be old acquaintances.”

Oswalud responded.

"You mean Miss Lilith?"

"Yes."

Oswald nodded and said humbly,

"When I was sorting through my elder sister's belongings, I found some things related to Mr. Rudeus. I felt they were very important and wanted to hand them over to Mr. Rudeus in person, but I was delayed by some matters. Now that I have some free time, Mr. Rudeus is no longer in the capital, so I can only use this method to call you out. After all, handing them over to Mr. Rudeus's wife is no different from handing them over to him in person."

Oswald spoke in a friendly manner. He knew that Sylphie was a prospective concubine, so he deliberately said that Sylphie was his first wife, just to make Sylphie feel comfortable and to make it easier for her to accept the situation.

"Oh, I see."

Although somewhat surprised, Hilfi did not dispel her doubts and remained cautious. "Then, Mr. Oswald, where did you put that precious thing?"

"Of course, one cannot carry precious things with one's person, so would you please come and sit in my humble abode?"

Seeing that Hilfi still had doubts, Oswald said, "And Miss Hilfiette, you can rest assured that the Aiuros family has already joined Prince Gravel's forces and will not do anything to harm you or the Boreas family."

“Alright, then please lead the way, Mr. Oswald.”

"I'm standing up," said Hilfi.

……

The Aiolos family manor was very close to the Royal Academy, and Hilfi and Oswald arrived at the manor quickly.

"Miss Hilfiet, do you know this?"

After entering the study, Oswald took a palm-sized magic stone crystal that shimmered with purple light from the cabinet and handed it to Sylphie.

"This is?"
