After planting the cherry blossom trees in Earl Rockfords house, we quickly made our way back to the Sanctuary to avoid too much contact from nobles and rchants.
If we teleport, it would an instant, but it wouldnt take too long even if Tsubaki ran until Volton, so we returned by carriage this ti.
At our Volton mansion, we were greeted by the maids led by Maribelle, and by Sebastian who had a large number of letters in hand.
Welco ho, Master, Madams.
Welco ho.
A cold sweat ran down my back.
Sebastian, is that
Yes. Letters from within and outside of the country have been arriving.
I had just co back from Earl Rockfords mansion so how? Isnt this too quick?
Sophia and Maria held my hands as I escaped from reality and led inside the mansion.
umm, I may as well ask, but what is it about?
Yes. I believe it is as you had imagined, Master.
Sitting on the couch in the living room, I looked at the stack of accumulated letters, and I had asked Sebastian about their contents, but the were indeed about the cherry blossom trees.
What should I do?
I wonder if I can just refuse the nobles Ive never t. Sa for the companies. Are there any that I really need to look at?
Please wait a mont.
Sebastian sorted out the pile of letters and eventually, only two letters remained.
Haa, what a relief. Only two?
Yes. However, among these trashed letters, the contents of so letters that are not about the cherry blossom trees.
Eh? There was sothing else?
Yes. We have received many portraits from companies both inside and outside the country.
Portraits? Why?
For matchmaking interviews with you, Master.
Eh!?
The sudden information from Sebastian left stunned and looking stupid.
As you would expect, there were no offers from nobles, but there many who wanted a marriage with you, Master.
Seriously?
While I was stunned, Sophia and Maria asked why I was like this now.
Eh?
Until now, Sophia-san and I had been throwing those away.
Is that so?
Yes. The company that transacts directly with Takumi-sama is only Papeck-sans. There were many of those proposal letters from companies.
Thank you as always.
I reflexively bowed to Maria and Sophia and thanked them.
First off, please dont direct any marriage proposals to . I have Sophia, Maria, and Marnie. To use their daughters just to cut into so trade
About that, its still better if it were their own daughters. So among them had proposing marriages with adopted daughters taken from who knows where.
Uwaa~
And the most troubling ones are these.
Saying so, Sebastian sifted through the portraits.
Its different from the others?
Yes. These were sent by knights of the kingdom and quasi-barons.
T-those people would be hard to ignore, huh.
Yes. I recomnd consulting with Margrave Volton.
I guess so.
Sebastian said that because he was a low ranking nobleman, he could ignore statuses even if they were commoners, and he wanted to push his daughter to , one of the richest people in Valkyra Kingdom. And that if they were a knight or a quasi-baron, it was also acceptable.
As to be expected, nobles who have higher ranks than a baron would find offense in marrying their daughters to a commoner, but knights are like half-commoners.
I seeeee, well for starters, lets set aside those marriage proposals, and the two remaining letters yep, theyre from His Majesty and Margrave Volton.
Yes. Margrave Volton likely does not want to be beaten by Earl Rockford. I recomnd planting the sa amount of trees. And I believe there is a request of a similar nature from His Majesty as well.
Haa~ Im going to the Sanctuary. I have to go ask Dryas and the Sakura Spirits to add more.
As the opportunity had arisen, how about consulting Margrave Volton and His Majesty regarding the marriage proposals while you are there to plant the cherry blossoms?
Youve got a point. Well then, lets stop here for today and go back.
Please take care.
With Sebastian, Maribelle, and the maids seeing us off, we headed to the Teleport Gate in the basent and teleported into the Sanctuary.
