Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 141

 

Chapter 141: Letter of Invitation



To be honest, I'm sick of it


"Shisu Edgeworth. Congratulations on your coming of age."


"I'm sorry to interrupt. My daughter would very much like to meet you..."


“Do you have enough manpower in your territory? If not, we'll have to move some people…”


"As expected of a hero's son, with a face as handsome as his father's..."


I've been getting called out by greasy old men for a while now.


And their breath smells bad.


All of them are obviously unhealthy.


And the content is full of ulterior motives.


I've had enough of this.


"Shisu-sama, do you have a minute?"


Cornales was the one who called out to me.


Captain Druknen is watching from afar.


"Yes?"


"His Majesty Quies wishes to see you."


"I understand. I'm sorry, everyone."


The Captain is giving a thumbs up


Looks like he's helping me.


"No, no"


"I look forward to working with you in the future."




---------




"I'm so tired~~~..."


I went out on the balcony with Cornales.


"Good work"


It's just the two of us.


Of course, it was a lie that His Majesty was calling me.


"I don't think it's a good idea to use His Majesty as an excuse?"


"But if I don't do that, those fat people won't go away."


"I wish they'd use that persistence in the fat in their bodies."


"It would be better if there was no fat."


The moon is shining in the sky


Tonight is a full moon.


"Shisu-sama..."


"I don't need the -sama."


"Then you can call me Corus too."


"Roger that."


"On the full moon, my father always says something to me."


"What kind?"


"Frankly, it's just a love story. He's telling me the confession he told my mother on the night of the full moon."


"Isn't that pretty harsh?"


"It's really hard. Honestly, I don't want to hear it anymore."


“Hahaha… what kind of story?”


"Under the full moon, he told my mother, [The moon is beautiful, isn't it?]"


"Is that his confession?"


"I heard that Father heard it from his teacher."


"Heh..."


"Huh? Don't you know?"


"What?"


"That teacher's name is Shiro."


"My father?"


"Well, of course, my mother didn't know that."


"Well, of course"


"By the way, when he said, [The moon is beautiful], she said, [I don't care if I die now]."


"Isn't that a little bit disturbing?"


"It means she's so happy she could die, right?"


"Then wouldn't it be better to say, [I wish this moment could last forever], or [Would you like to dance with me?]."


"Oh! You're a romanticist, aren't you?"


"Maybe you should learn to be a little more feminine."


Because you look good on the outside


"I can't do that, I'm a swordsman."


"Your parents will be sad about that."


It is a painful story for parents that there is no one to take their daughter as a wife


Well, I don't understand that


"Then if I fall behind, Shisu will take me."


"Eh, no."


"Uwa, you answered right away!"


"You. You think I want a woman who fights in such a violent way?"


"No..."


"If you are aware, fix it!"


"That's my way of fighting. But it's frustrating to lose after fighting so hard."


"You're relying too much on surprise attacks and tricks. If they respond to your first attack, you'll just get pushed around. You need to learn more fundamentals."


She has both strength and physique, but I could see the tip of the blade that Corus is swinging due to wasteful movements.


That would dull the sharpness of her cut.


“Fundamentals huh… Ah, I came up with something good.”


I have a bad feeling about this


"I'll ask my parents for permission..."


"No"


"Listen to the end!"


"No way"


“May I participate in the Edgeworth territory recruit training?”


"If you could get permission."


"Alright!"


I'll make sure they don't.


I'll make sure the Captain doesn't.


"Umm..."


And then someone interrupts.


"What's wrong?"


The woman who came in was a waitress.


"I've been entrusted with a letter from a noble."


"Letter?"


"Who is it from?"


"I'm sorry, he left without giving his name. It's for Shisu-sama."


I checked the contents


“…………Huh”


"What is it?"


"It's an invitation"


"To a dance?"


Dance... well. Can you call it a dance?


"Is there a martial arts tournament in the royal capital?"


"Yeah, there is. Eh, that invitation?"


“It really wants me to participate in the noble section.”


"That's great. Go wreak havoc."


Do you think I'm some kind of barbarian?


“I won't. But the noble section... is it a classy fight?"


"It's quite classy. It's classy enough that my participation won't be accepted."


"Have you ever tried to participate?"


"They sent me to the attraction section because I'm barbaric. Don't you think that's terrible? My father sent me there!"


It's actually barbaric, the way you fight


“I wonder if I can join the attraction section?”


"Do you want to go there?"


"What does the attraction section look like?"


"Lots of people like me"


"Because I prefer a practical way of fighting."


"But the invitation says it's for the noble section. It's impossible."


"No? Well, I'll just try."


“One man's plan is no plan! Is that what you call it?”


"What's that?"


That's another joke she heard from her father.


I really don't know anything about Father. I...
