I was thanked while on watch duty
“His Grace is especially pleased. While you are quite different in age…you have been like a friend to him. Even if he is your instructor, he lowers his guards around you. Though, that also brings out so of his bad habits…”
“Ahaha… Well, as long as he doesn’t force to do anything, then I am fine… But now that I think about it, he did seem a little different when I first t him.”
“Indeed. He has beco fond of you and relaxed a little.”
If I was a friend…then that made happy.
I never had that many friends, after all… Of course, I wasn’t lonely, because I had leo. But I suppose I looked like a lonely person from the outside.
In any case, while much older than , Mr. Ekenhard was easy to be around, and I was at ease when talking to him.
We even went on secret outings together to Ractos.
n were simple, and could get along over such things.
However, I had been incredibly nervous during our first eting. And I did think he was different then.
“There was the matter of the wine, Range Village, and the disease… But I think it was around the ti he slipped out of the mansion that he really seed to enjoy being with you.”
“Ahaha…”
Apparently, Sebastian was thinking the sa thing.
…Though, it wasn’t like I had invited him.
“I did not expect you to return with a beastkin child, though… Regardless, that clearly had a big effect. Or perhaps he no longer cared about looking intimidating, after you saw Lady Claire scolding him. Hohoho…”
“Yes, that might be it as well.”
I chuckled along with Sebastian.
When was the first ti that Ms. Claire scolded Mr. Ekenhart…
There was that ti when he made fight those n in the store as part of my training.
The ti we went to Ractos, and also that ti he was eavesdropping when Mr. Claire and I were talking in my room.
So there were many tis… You would almost think that he enjoyed getting her angry.
“He has always enjoyed going to town… And now he has soone to go with, Mr. Takumi. He cannot travel out too far, and everyone recognizes him. So it was difficult for him to spend ti with soone like a friend.”
“I see…”
Now that I think about it, he did say that when he was young, he would go to the town to eat and see different things.
That was probably the town that was close to his main house, not Ractos. And so his influence would be even stronger over there.
…Surprisingly, Mr. Ekenhart might have been more lonely than I was… No, he had been married, and had two children, so that clearly wasn’t true.
“…But, I had Leo. So I was fine.”
“Wuff? Wou!”
“What did you say, Mr. Takumi?”
“Oh, uh, nothing. Nevermind.”
Damn it, I had thought out loud, after thinking about how I didn’t have any friends.
Leo seed confused at first, but nodded reassuringly.
Aside from Leo, I also had so coworkers…I talked with them during break… Though, I guess I still wouldn’t call them friends…
No, I can’t think about such strange things right now… Sebastian will look at as if there was sothing wrong with .
“Hah… Well, as long as you are fine. In any case, we servants are very glad that there is soone who the master, Lady Claire, and Lady Tilura, can feel at such ease with. Both you and Leo.”
“Haha. Well, while that was not our intention…I am glad to hear it.”
Ms. Claire and the others really were liked by the servants.
They treated them well, and never beca angry without reason. They were wise and kind.
Also, the duke had hired many servants from the orphanage as well… So he was like an ideal superior in so ways.
It was no wonder the servants liked them…
