Because of the bombshell that Sylph dropped, I even forgot what I ate for dinner.
Who would have thought that Dante-san was even thinking of retiring and immigrating to the Sanctuary.
According to Sylph, Darphy-kun had already returned to the Sylphide territory to do the work as the Lord’s representative.
Apparently, Dante had already decided on retirent during the carriage ride ho, and the mont he returned to his territory, he told Darphy about the change of heads and began making preparations to return to the Sanctuary.
「It seems the Yggurle Kingdom’s Pri Minister had already taken care of it.」
「What do you an?」
Sylph said that Dante’s retirent and migration to the Sanctuary was influenced by Yggurle Kingdom’s Pri Minister Balza.
「Sophia’s younger brother was sent back to the territory to act as the proxy of its Lord. In short, Forselty, the Knight Commander, and Balza have said that they wanted Dante to retire and be by Etoile’s side. They had even prepared the docunts for a smooth transfer of authority.」
「Why are King Yggurle and Pri Minister Balza ddling with Dante-san’s retirent?」
I hate to say it, but House Sylphide was a Chevalier at the border. I thought it wasn’t a matter that needed the ddling of a nation’s king and pri minister.
「What are you talking about? Isn’t it to increase the amount of connections they have with you? You are a special individual to Yggurle Kingdom. To the Elves who revere Spirits, they would want every connection that they could have with you, the Keeper of the Sanctuary.」
「Which ans, Dante-san decided to co back.」
「Didn’t I say that at the very start?」
Damn it, they won’t even let escape reality.
「My apologies, Takumi-sama.」
「No, it’s not your fault, wait no, it’s not that I don’t want Dante-san to co.」
「Of course you wouldn’t want that, right~」
Sophia apologized profusely. Even though I hurriedly corrected her saying that it’s not that I didn’t like Dante-san, Freesia-san, who must have finally put Etoile to sleep and returned, made things more complicated with what she said.
「Wait, Freesia-san, I don’t dislike you either. He is Sophia’s father, I want to get along with him too.」
「Fufu, it’s suffocating living under the sa roof though, no?」
「That’s right…… wait, that’s not the case.」
Freesia-san accurately described how I felt.
I wouldn’t necessarily say that I dislike living under the sa roof as my in-laws, but it was a bit stressful living with soone who I have to be mindful of.
Then suddenly, I had a thought. Why was I thinking that we should live in the sa house? We don’t necessarily have to live under the sa roof. If they live in the Sanctuary, they can et Etoile anyti, then wouldn’t it be better to prepare a house for Dante-san and Freesia-san? Thinking so, I imdiately proposed building a house for them to Freesia-san.
「Freesia-san, I’m thinking of building a house for you and Dante-san, but is there anything you want?」
「Oh my, I am fine staying here.」
「W-well, there’s a lot of people here, and Dante-san might not feel all that comfortable with that.」
「Hmmm, that is true. That man is surprisingly shy, so he may need his own private space.」
「That’s right! That way, I think Dante-san wouldn’t stress as much either.」
Okay! Things seem to be going well.
「If you have any requests, I will do my best to grant them for you.」
「……let’s see. Firstly, the two of us do not need servants, so a small house is fine. I think a living room with just enough space to not feel cramped would be nice. The sa for the dining room and kitchen as well. I want a bathroom but it does not have to be huge. If I want to take a bath in a huge bathroom then I will co here. Ah, and, two separate bedrooms for Dante and myself.」 �
After pondering over it for a while, Freesia-san told her wishes.
「Of course I will comply with your requests, but two individual bedrooms?」
「Oh you~ Takumi-kun, how old do you think Dante and I are? We’re nearly at that age where we just want to relax and sleep by ourselves.」
「I-is that so? That aside, will you really not be hiring any servants or maids? You had so servants in your mansion in your land, will the two of you be fine on your own?」
My instincts were telling that it would be best not to listen too deeply about their bedroom matters, so I asked about sothing else I was curious about.
With their peerage, Dante-san and Freesia-san must have lived a life being served all the ti. Wil they really be alright with cooking and cleaning?
「About that. If it’s simple then I am alright with cooking, but I will basically be coming over to your house to eat, but cleaning and laundry would be an undertaking. I wonder if we should hire soone……」
「……so you will basically eat here.」
「Oh my, is that not allowed?」
「No, of course that would be no problem.」
Let’s endure altis. Now that I think about it, Madam Elizabeth is freeloading even now, and Madam Lumia frequently visits during altis as well, so no point complaining now.
Okay, then they’ll be at a distance where the soup doesn’t get cold[1 This ans that they live not too far, yet not too close. A distance just right.]. Yep, let’s think of it like that.
