And I was worried.
Is there any reason to drag this trash to my rice field?
The answer, of course, was ‘nothing.’
‘You just need to find another person.’
With that thought in mind, I was about to quietly retreat with a cold face.
“uh?”
Leon found me.
The man with silver hair and red eyes opened his eyes and pointed at me with his index finger.
I felt sad when I saw his silver hair and red eyes. He was a favorite in my heart just because he had silver hair and red eyes.
Was my favorite character like that?
Did I fail to interpret the character?
What a miserable place.
“Are you drunk? “I see a woman.”
“what? female? where! where!”
The bald man stood up, looked at me, and said, “Oh my!” I made a gesture.
“Finally, our gourmet club has a female member!”
No, that’s not it.
Among them, who suddenly became a market, Leon stood up quickly.
He staggered towards me, holding a skewer in one hand, and there was a strong smell of alcohol in the air.
I quietly hid Axion behind me.
“Who are you talking about?”
Leon asked, picking his ears. I answered expressionlessly.
“It’s nothing.”
He tilted his head.
“Then you’re saying I’m looking at nothing?”
“yes.”
“Hey, even a joke.”
He held out a lamb skewer.
“join the membership?”
“refuse.”
I struck back like a sword.
At my words, Leon lowered his eyes towards his wife with a frown on his face.
“really?”
“yes.”
He slumped his shoulders.
The lamb skewers also went down.
“Oh, I need to save up the membership fee to buy a magic oven.”
While he was muttering, a hand reached out for the lamb skewer he was holding.
It was Axion’s small hand.
“Abubu! Wow!”
“huh? “You want to eat?”
“Ugh!”
“good!”
Without any fear, he slapped Leon’s hand as he held a lamb skewer towards Axion’s mouth.
“What’s good about it?”
His hand, which was very drunk, easily fell off.
The lamb skewer fell to the floor.
“Ah, my lamb skewers!”
“What does lamb skewer mean to a one-year-old child?”
It was quite amazing to see the silver-haired red eyes moving vividly in front of me, but it was only an impression for about 0.1 seconds.
I didn’t really want to know about the leader of the black hawk, who was stumbling around and reeking of alcohol.
“Oh right. Now that I think about it, I think my master told me to help a young lady.”
At that time, taking advantage of the attention that had been drawn in this direction after my appearance, the bronze-skinned man who was secretly inhaling the entire lamb skewer spoke.
It was the man who had been hit with salt earlier.
Then the bald man who had not noticed the disappearing lamb skewer said, “Huh?” She said and rolled her eyes.
“ah! “I think it was like that?”
“What, why don’t I, the leader, know?”
Leon picked up the lamb skewer that had fallen on the floor and complained, blowing at the dust.
“That’s right, because you became the leader with your skills in grilling skewers. Kihihi.”
One of the knights who was lying down and rolling around answered.
“Oh right. It did.”
Leon answered indifferently and ate the lamb skewer he had picked up.
I covered Axion’s eyes.
I felt like covering my ears. Why do I only have two hands?
“Okay then, I’ll just leave.”
“Uh… … ?”
I decided to put an end to my interest in them.
I had to quickly get rid of that trash right before my eyes and protect the image I had of the black hawk.
Those weren’t black hawks, they were just trash like Dazar said.
‘There will be trash. Among them, try to find some that can be recycled.’
recycle?
I glanced at the men in front of me.
The bronze-skinned man from earlier was caught sneaking lamb skewers and was beaten up.
The men stomped on him several times, swearing at him with a sour expression on his face as he screamed as he was hit.
“You bastard, you did that on purpose, right?”
“die. “Die, you bastard.”
There was no trash to recycle.
“Oh, but I’m sorry. “We’re a little busy.”
I said goodbye and said I would just go home, but it was at that time that Leon let out an unwanted rejection belatedly, probably because his ears were clogged.
Leon threw the finished skewer on the floor and scratched the back of his head.
“Do you see what it says over there? Gourmet gathering. Because our motto is Wollu. “I don’t think I can help you.”
Oh, Wollu is the monthly salary Lupine, do you know? He added and laughed.
Again, there was no trash to recycle.
“Ah yes. Thank you.”
I can’t help you.
I really appreciate that.
* * *
I quickly left the garbage dump and ran, holding Axion tightly.
I shouted as soon as we arrived at the annex where we were staying.
“Grandpa! “Please stay with Axion for a moment!”
“Yes?”
Carl, who was drinking crucian carp juice, hugged Axion with a surprised face.
The crucian carp juice that flew out from the quick hug stuck to the window, but there was no time to be surprised by it.
I started running again, tightening my toes and clenching my fists.
Towards the crazy in-law who introduced the garbage dump as if it were a human resources agency.
According to the information I found out by grabbing several people by the collar, he was in the office.
“Hey!”
“what?”
He looked very relaxed as he sat on the large window with his legs wide open.
The long cigarette holder that was hanging dangerously close to his lips was askew.
“why? “Has the sky fallen?”
He quickly caught the falling pipe and looked at the sky.
The white curtains gently fluttering in the winter wind were so pretty that they did not match that violent human being.
But there was no time to appreciate that unbalanced beauty.
I gasped.
I ran this far without stopping and was out of breath.
My chest rose and fell as I exhaled and inhaled.
“The sky, huh, what… … .”
My favorite fell apart. I grumbled inwardly and wiped the sweat from my forehead.
He jumped down from the window and came in front of me.
I felt it last time too, but there were hardly any attendants around him.
If you had a position like a duke, there would have to be servants waiting around the room.
He was so alone that no one would notice even if I slammed open the door and came in.
He tilted his head and looked down at me.
“If not the sky, has the earth disappeared?”
“Don’t act like you don’t know.”
“what?”
“Those trash. What kind of recycling manpower are they looking for over there? “Please find another manpower!”
“iced coffee.”
He shook his head as if he now understood, and then drooped his eyebrows as if he was very embarrassed.
Then he spoke in a voice that did not seem sincere at all.
“What should I do with this?”
“?”
For some reason, I became anxious.
I narrowed my eyes.
He gently placed his long, bony finger on her temple and twirled it.
“There aren’t that many people in Seastar. “Because we only have the minimum amount of manpower.”
“So?”
no way. I smiled awkwardly.
“Due to the nature of the family, we are not bringing in outside personnel as much as possible.”
“… … .”
“So, those guys are the only ones who can do their best.”
“… … .”
“Do your best.”
He chuckled.
Suddenly, I desperately wanted to grab the salt that the bald head of the Black Hawk Knights had grabbed and sprinkled earlier.
If I sprinkle some on that ugly face, I wonder if my anger will subside a little.
“Are you going to take these people who seem to drink and roll around in the rice fields and make rice fields?”
“If you don’t like it, work alone.”
“How can I make a rice field by myself! Then, why don’t we at least assign people who come to receive training?”
He responded kindly to my angry cries.
“They are not from the Siaster family. Are you planning to treat the imperial staff like your servants?”
“Ugh.”
At the very least, I wanted to use commoners belonging to the duchy as manpower. Unlike other noble families, the transcendental families did not have estate residents.
Although they received a title from the imperial family because they had the job of protecting the ‘rift’, it was a burden for them to be responsible for the territory’s residents as they had a mission to protect the continent.
‘ha.’
Was this crazy in-law my enemy in a past life?
Is there something dissatisfied with me?
This was a great challenge to my existence.
My mind drifted to the sight of drunkards rolling around on the floor of the training center as if it were their own home, devoting their whole bodies to sweeping up dust from the floor.
Thinking of them, I frowned.
The corners of his mouth turned up with a smirk.
