The Main Family Is About to Die Out, so I, from a Branch Family, Am a Seed Provider (WN): Chapter 6

 

Episode 6: The Young Lady's Life Consultation 1

"Ara? Have you finished talking to my father?"

"...Yeah. I'm afraid so."

 I went back to my parents' castle...... when I went back to my private room, there was Lady Ritia, still wearing her expensive dress.

 Long golden hair and clear blue eyes. Her face was white and slightly childish. She was a great noble who had her own maid prepare tea and was relaxing elegantly even though it was my room. She had no restraint even though it is someone else's room.

 Not only the head of the Fregrance family but also his daughter, Lady Ritia, had come to my parents' house. The first thing that came to mind was the fact that the two of them were not the only ones who had come to the castle.

"What, why the gloomy face?"

 She put down her cup and looked at me. But one of the reasons for that was definitely because of her.

 That old man, when he grabbed me, came at me with a devilish look and shouted, "Ritia-tan, Ritia-tan!".

 I thought to myself, "Calm down, you stupid father," and asked him about the reasons for his behavior. One of them was Lady Ritia's recent behavior.

 In the few days since the first time we had sex, Lady Ritia had been showing signs of emotional instability, blushing and getting angry, messing up her proud blond hair, or rolling around on the bed while screaming.

 The maids and butlers were worried and consulted the old man, who thought I might be the cause or know the cause, and here we are. Well, from the main family's point of view, they strongly suspect the former.

"Nevertheless……"

"What?"

 The young lady in front of me now, Lady Ritia, is enjoying her tea in the same manner as the last time I saw her.

 For a moment, I thought that the Fregrances were being too overprotective. But I was convinced that was not the case when I saw the young lady.

"......"

"W-what... do you need something?"

 I close the distance between me and Lady Ritia so much that our noses touched. Then she clearly shifted her gaze from me to the side.

 It was a gesture that blatantly put me out of her line of sight. I have been thinking that she had been strangely avoiding eye contact with me ever since I came to the room, but did she really start to act and behave strangely because of me?

"I heard from your father that Ojousama has been acting strangely lately......"

"I-I see, from father."

"Yeah. And he told me I was the cause of it."

"I-I see, I'm sorry about that. Rather, why are you so close since a while ago!"

 The young lady said so and put her hand on my chest and tried to push me away.

 The maid next to me also saw that her master didn't like it and put her hand on my shoulder and pulled me away.

 Normally, it would be impolite for a maid to directly touch a nobleman, but this is the Fregrance family, a great noble. Even the servants look down on me. Well, it's fine.

"So, in order to clear my name, I decided to ask Ojousama directly about the situation. Yes, Ritia-sama. I'm here to help you with your problem."

"......I don't have any problems."

 Suddenly, her entire face turned sideways this time. That's like saying there's something. She is still a terrible liar.

"I'm sure there's something Ojousama wants to say. Come on, be honest with me."

"Shut up, I told you there isn't one!"

 The maid at her side offered tea to the yelling Lady Ritia and moved to calm her down for the time being.

 But like a small child throwing a tantrum, Lady Ritia's anger did not abate.

 ……I have to admit that I was a little annoyed at the young lady for showing me this fuss so soon after flirting with Mashiro.

"If so, could you please tell your father that yourself? He had nothing to worry about because I have nothing to do with it."

"……eh?"

 If you think about it, it is a parent's duty to follow up with their daughter if she is acting strangely. I wish the head of the main family would stop being such a worrying parent and just throw the important parts to me.

 When I half-heartedly told her so, she suddenly stopped moving.

"I was forced to get back here in a hurry, and when I came back, forgive me but I don't want to get involved with this nonsense."

 And when I dare to voice my complaint, the maid at her side, not the young lady, puts her hand on the hem of her skirt.

 Perhaps she intended to bring out some kind of weapon. I guess the maid must have seen it as disrespectful that I kept my attitude, mood, and even my language rude. The only time I was allowed to show my normal attitude was when I was alone with Lady Ritia.

"......"

"......"

 As I observed her movements closely, the maid's mood changed to a somewhat deadly one.

 Even though I am a nobleman, my family is a branch of a further branch of a branch family. I have some knowledge of martial arts to keep up on the battlefield. So I can handle one maid or so on my own.......

 A maid on Lady Ritia's side dropped her center of gravity. But as I was about to open my legs a little to dodge it...

"W-wait!"

 Lady Ritia's voice echoed through my room.

"It was my fault. So, Glass, put your dagger away."

"……Yes."

 The maid, muttering in a cold, monotonous tone of voice, backed down. She seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied, but it seemed that she strictly obeyed her master's orders.

"I'm going to be honest, and I hope that's okay with you?"

"I would appreciate it if Ojousama would do that from the beginning."

 I'll change my tone so as not to irritate the maid who is waiting behind her. Well, if she's going to be honest with me, that's fine. I didn't have to complain if she had done so from the beginning.

"That's, you know..."

"Yes."

"That time."

"Yes."

"...Uu, you know, that time."

"Are you willing to speak seriously?"

"I-I am!"

 At this rate, the conversation would not end after dark. Even if she's going to stay overnight, I don't have enough free time to spend all day talking to the young lady.

"Ah, mou, because of that!"

 Is it really that hard to say? I'm starting to feel like it's going to be a problem and I don't feel like asking for advice.

 I think the reason the young lady is having a hard time saying it is not because of the content she had to say...... but because of the presence of the maid.

 I think the fact that she's glancing back meant that she didn't want the maid to hear what she had to say.

"I understand, Ritia-sama."

 After a single clap of my hands, the young lady turned her gaze toward me.

"Eh? Really?"

"Yes. I'm not getting to the point, but anyway."

"It's no good!"

 It's you who's no good, you.

"I have no idea what you want to say, but I have the perfect place for this kind of consultation."

 The maid at her back looked like she wanted to say, "What are you talking about?", But I didn't care.

"I will listen to Ritia-sama's consultation there alone. Is that all right with the young lady?"

"Is there such a place?"

 The young lady had a cheerful expression on her face. After all, it seemed that it was a conversation she didn't want anyone to hear.

"Yes, there is. It is a place unique to our family. It's......."

 There was an old saying that had been handed down in my family from generation to generation.

 First, deepen our relationship through nakedness!.......

 In other words, the right place to ask for advice is yes!

"Bath time!"
