Eroge Reincarnation, Struggle of a Golden Pig Aristocrat Against Fate - CH 77
Autumn has arrived
Yes, it’s the first autumn since Leolde arrived in Ze’at. However, there is nothing special about it.
There was no special event, and Leolde was facing his papers work as usual.
(Oh no. I’m going to die. I can’t believe I’m about to die of exhaustion.)
Ever since he became the acting lord, he had been very busy. There were days when he had no time to rest and was busy with paperwork.
He was about to reach his physical and mental limits. Leolde was determined to find a civil servant as soon as possible.
But he don’t know what to do . Leolde has no connections. Or, to be more precise, he does. He could have asked Beluga, but he had already refused.
And there is another person. He don’t know what kind of trouble I’ll get into if I rely on this one.
However, He was sure , that person has more connections than Beluga, the head of the duke’s family. After all, it’s the fourth princess, Sylvia.
” It’s impossible.”
He thought about it, but it was still impossible. He quickly dismissed the idea, saying that he didn’t know what kind of demands they would make of him. Leolde, who was going to go down to the town for a change, pace called Gilbert and Isabelle.
With them as his escorts, he descended into the town of Ze’at. It was already known that Leolde had become the acting lord.
At first, the residents believed the rumors and were afraid of him, but when they saw how many knights adored him, they were no longer frightened.
It is because of this that the residents are not frightened when Leolde comes to town.
“Hmmm. Can’t find any candidates for civil servants?”
“It’s not as big as capital so it’s unlikely that there will be any talented people laying around in the city.
“Damn it. I’m going to die of exhaustion if I don’t do something.”
“Maaster . Why don’t you ask Her Highness for help?
“Gil. , if we ask Hr Highness, she will certainly send us an excellent civil servant. But the payback would be terrible. You never know what she might ask for.
“I would appreciate it if you refrained from making any comments that would taunt my lady .
“I’m aware of what you’re reporting to Her Highness!
“But if this continues, master will reach his limit. We have to do something about it.
“I know, but ……?
“. Master has no connections, does he?
“Shut up!
Although his popularity has been increasing lately, his only connections are with his father and Sylvia. In fact, it’s great that he has a relationship with Sylvia, who is in a better position than him. But it’s hard to use it . With all due respect to the royal family, Sylvia was not someone he wanted to get involved with.
“Grow up already …….”
“I don’t have time for this.”
“Are you trying to kidnap me”
“Isabelle! What do you think you’re doing ”
“You’re an honorable man, master ”
“You’re lying!
“What?”
“Tilt your head in a pretty way, but you’re not fooling me!”
“I didn’t mean it, master , but I’m flattered.”
Leolde admires Isabelle, who puts her hands to her face and blushes, but decides that she is acting and tweaks her.
“I envy your mentality!”
Gilbert was softened by the scene that had become familiar to him. It’s not possible to intervene between the two, but Gilbert was happy to see that Leolde seemed to be enjoying himself .
At first, Gilbert tried to warn Isabelle about his attitude toward Leolde, but Leolde himself didn’t mind, so Gilbert didn’t say anything. Besides, it wasn’t Gilbert who could speak for others.
He himself had been unforgivably rude to his master, Leolde,because he had been too lenient with his granddaughter. So, Gilbert never said anything to Isabelle because Leolde never said anything to him.
“Master , Isabelle. This is a place of traffic.”
“Mmm. …… Let’s go.’
“I could have played along a bit more, but I’ll follow Sir Gilbert’s lead.”
Leolde took the lead and moved on. But it’s not a very big town. There is not much to see. To be honest there fort, but it’s not worth going to see right now.
Leolde looked around to his left and right, searching for someone who might be a good civil servant, but he couldn’t find anything. As he began to wonder if he should drink his tears and ask Sylvia to help him, he arrived at the knight’s barracks.
(Hmm … By the way, there are civilians among the knights, right? From there, even headhunting … No, the civilian seems to be valuable to the Knights, so let’s stop)
It was an unannounced visit, so Leolde made his way to the barracks. As he entered, he could hear the hot shouts coming from the training area.
They’re probably working hard on their training. he thought it would be a nice change of pace for him to get some exercise, so he showed up at the training grounds.
When the knights noticed him , they stopped their training and greeted him. Leolde waved his hand to stop them, telling them to continue their training.
After watching the knights train for a while, Barbaroto walks up to Leoldo and his group.
“What can I do for you today?”
“Oh. I’m actually looking for a civilian candidate, but I can’t seem to find one. I was strolling around town and came across this place, so I thought I’d stop by and take a look.’
“Are you trying to find one of the knights?”
“Well, I won’t deny it.”
“Hmm. ……”
Barbaroto shows a pretense of thinking, as if he has an idea about the civilian candidates. As Leolde looks at Barbaroto expectantly, he sees a knight doing some chores out of the corner of his eye.
” Do knights have scullery maids?
“Yes, well. It’s hard to say, but the scullery maids are all those who have no talent with the sword. So we have them do miscellaneous tasks such as cleaning and laundry.
“Is it possible to get them as civil servants ?
“It would be possible, but I can’t say for sure if they would be good civil servants. I don’t want to say too much, but we need scullery maids.
Most knights are good at fighting, but many of them are not good at such chores.
“I see. …… Hmm?”
“The knights who are not good at fighting do the chores, right?”
“Yes. What’s wrong?
“Yeah. I’ve come up with a few ideas “.
Leoldo smiled fearlessly, and Gilbert and Barbarotp both had high hopes for him. And Isabelle was curious what kind of ide Leolde have.
