The Dukes of Solistea are one of the four great dukes of the royal family of the magical kingdom of Solistea.
　The four families are the royal family: the Solisteers, who inherit the fire magic; the Riviants, who inherit the wind magic; the Amaltheas, who inherit the water magic; and the Sundrikes, who inherit the earth magic.
　However, these spells are difficult to use. Just because you inherit a spell doesn't mean you can master it.
　Each of the four dukes tried to improve the spell, and as a result, all but the Solistair family's spell, Drag Inferno Distraction, has been useless for a long time.
　The cause of the problem is that they misrecognized the magic letters and started to improve them without realizing it, but recently they found out how to decipher the magic letters, and the three families are now eager to revive the secret magic again.
　However, there was no way that such a situation could be passed on to the general public, and a gag order had been put in place, including the royal family, in order to control the situation in other countries.
　The mere fact that powerful magic exists is enough to deter war, and in fact, since the Solistair family's treasured magic was safe, the other countries were only aware of the dangerous magic without knowing the truth.
　Now, why did I start by talking about the four dukes and secret magic?

I'm not sure what to make of it.
"Soukis....... I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.　I'm sure you're not the only one. It's not something you can share with other families.
That's fine. If you don't improve it so that it can be used, you never know what the Northern Powers might do. The situation in that country has been unstable lately.
If you're looking for opinions, ask Croisus. I'm a user.
You're a cheapskate, and if you go to Croesus, you'll be wasting your time listening to him go on and on about his knowledge.
Huh~....... Well, there is no denying it.

　Sowkis Ver Libyanto.
　You can find a lot of people who are interested in this type of product.
　With his light-hearted personality, childish behavior, and youthful appearance, he is extremely popular among some nobles and a certain number of people.
　It's mainly because of this that I've been able to find out more about him.　...... No, it doesn't matter if it's a man or not,' or 'Is it really a man?　I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it's a good idea.　I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will help you.
　He has a neutral appearance, but if he were to wear a dress and makeup, he would look like a girl, and he is very concerned about that.
　He hangs around Zveit because he doesn't say anything about his appearance and because he is one of the few friends who can say what he thinks without getting tired of it. He is also a friendly person by nature.
　If you are a man, it must make you feel bad to see your peers turning away and turning their cheeks when they see you. No wonder you are fed up with it.
　He was, if anything, a hard worker in another sense.

"You're here on behalf of the Dukes of Riviante. You're supposed to be the representative of the Duke of Riviante.
Come on, let's skip it. It's a good thing we're not here to talk about it, so let's leave the trouble to someone else.
Don't you realize that you're the next head of the family?　It's not something a member of a duke's family would say. Besides, we're the host this time. I've got to be there.
I don't like to be around women who smell like perfume. I don't like to be around women who smell like perfume. I even miss my period.
"Men don't have periods!　It's true that I don't like the smell of perfume either, but I've given up. ......

　Zveit understands what Soukis is saying.
　It's also a great way to get to know the people around you.
　At the same time, they also serve as a place to strengthen ties between young people and the next heir, and as a place to search for marriage partners.
　This time, the event was hosted by the Duchess of Solstair, and as the next head of the family, Zveit was in a position where he had to attend. I can understand why you would want to be fed up.
　However, due to his position, he also has to fulfill his duty as a nobleman.

Then let's skip it. "Then let's have s*x." "Escaping, boycott is fine.
Not so fast!　What are you trying to do, make me an accomplice? Get dressed.
I don't like ceremonial dress because it's too stuffy. Huh~ I hate ......!
"Stop complaining and get ready!　I'm not sure what to do. The maids are dumbfounded.
The maids are dumbfounded. "Zveit is inflexible, too. Why don't you go easy on him?
What do you think the duties of a nobleman are?　Since you grew up on the taxpayers' money, you're in no position to complain. It's only for tonight anyway, so put up with it.
"Well, if I'm ever born again, I want to be a commoner. I don't want to be a nobleman.

　Sowkiss, complaining lingeringly, began to change into the ceremonial clothes on the hanger.
　But then he stumbled upon something under the sofa that could not possibly be in a man's room.

"Tsveit!
What is it?
What's that?
What the f*ck?

　In Soukis's hand was a pair of women's underwear made of a light green fabric - so-called panties, or puant-ties.
　It is likely that his bodyguard, Anzu, had entered the room at some point, guarded the place for a while while making underwear, and then left, leaving one item behind.
　He must have been working next to the sofa, or got right underneath it when he was cleaning up.

By the way, Anzu looked awfully sleepy this morning. Did you stay up all night working as an escort?



　He's a child in age, but he's loyal to his duties, never complains, and stays awake.
A few mistakes can be forgiven.
　The presence of women's underwear in a man's room, however, raises certain suspicions about the room's owner.

Zweite: ....... You're a cross-dresser, aren't you?
No, of course not!
So did you steal it?　No, but the quality should be quite expensive, right?　Maybe it came from your wife's room: ....... No, no, no, no, no, you're a serious motherf*cker!
No!　I'm sure you're not the only one.　One of the guards makes and sells that sort of thing. Probably after breaking into my room when I was on night guard, he was making them to pass the time during the waiting period. I can only assume that he cleaned up some of it and forgot one thing.
Isn't that an awful excuse?
Let me ask you this, what image do you have of me now?
You're not wearing ......... a face or ...... a head, are you?　Your head?　Or are you ...... not wearing a pair of shoes?
What are you always looking at me like?

　It's hard to find a friend who's not afraid to say what he wants to say, but sometimes Zveit doesn't know what to think of Soukis.
　What can I say? He's always on the edge of his seat, and it's hard to tell where he's really going with this.
　It would be a mistake to say that he has no hidden agendas, but as the heir to a noble family, even a duke's family, his behavior seems a bit foolish.
　I am worried about his future.

"......... installed!　I'm not sure what to say.
Why did you put it on?　You're a pervert!

　Zveit punched the idiot who wore the puunty in the face as hard as he could.
　He would complain to Ans later, but for now, he had to shut up the idiot who was trying to stall for time in front of him and hurry to the floor where he was changing.
　If you are late, you will be punished by your father, Delsasis.
　In the end, Soukis persevered through the time it took him to change, and by the time he got there, his father's greeting had ended.
　Needless to say, Delsacis' eyes were frighteningly cold and Soukis was trembling with fear at this unwanted act of disrespect.
　No one can resist the current Duke, who is the most powerful and the most evil.

　　I'll be back.

　The noblemen hold parties such as soirées and balls several times a year. Events in the royal capital are also held about twice a year.
　The main purpose of this event is for the duke, marquis, and count level nobles to exchange information with the neighboring lower level nobles, but it is also a place to meet new nobles and to arrange marriages with their sons and daughters who will be their heirs.
　To be honest, such an event is a waste of taxpayers' money, and it is not something that can be held many times. The number of people who hold titles such as viscount or baron is quite large if you include the associate, and there are many noblemen who go through life without ever attending such a banquet.
　There are many noblemen who never attend these banquets in their lives. Noblemen of old families tend to respect tradition, and the lineup of noblemen who attend these banquets never changes. Some of them even consider it their duty to hold such banquets.
　However, it was a hell of an ordeal for those who could not get used to the old customs and conventions.
　And now, we are in the middle of a standing banquet. Many aristocrats were enjoying conversation, calling out to each other to make a connection, or having secret talks in separate rooms.

I don't know why we can't just go to ...... and get it over with. I can't take it anymore.
I'm sure you'll find a lot of people who'd like to know more about this. It's basically a vertical society.
If you have to ask your superiors every single time you act, you might not be able to get there in time. I don't think there's any need to look at other noblemen's faces in an emergency.
"You're making a lot of sense, but you're just tired, aren't you?
Per.

　In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.
　After that, he continued to complain for about an hour, and Tsveit began to worry about Soukis's future, wondering if he would be able to make it as the heir of the duke's family.
　He was not very good at being patient.

It's Zveit-sama. ....... I'm sorry.
Should I ask him to come over?　But to be honest, I'm not very good with Mr. Zveit. ......
I wish Mr. Croesus were here, but I'm afraid he's not attending today.
Mr. Soukis, you always look so lovely.
Can I take some home with me?
".........

　For some reason, Zveit's daughters never approached him.
　You can say hello to them, but other than that, the women will run away from you.
　This is one of the reasons why Zveit is always avoided at these events, but he is completely unaware of it.
　Soukis is popular among girls, but he never approaches women because he doesn't like the smell of perfume.
　In a way, the two heirs to the dukedom were opposite sides of the same coin, as their childishness was also a reason for their popularity.

'Isn't Zveit going to make his rounds?　You said before that you wanted a girlfriend. You said you wanted a girlfriend.
No, I had my own problems at the time. ......
I have to admit, I was a bit disgusted by the way you were so greedy with your desires. ......


Don't say .......

　In the past, when I attended a standing party hosted by the Livianto family, I was under the influence of the bloodline magic of brainwashing by my fellow students' Bremites, so I had become a pretty cool character.
　At that time, he also met Soukis...

I'm not sure what's wrong with you, Tsveit.　Did you eat something bad?
"Soukis, I've decided to live up to my desires. There are only women, women, women in this world!
Are you really that hungry for a woman?
I want to have a thousand good women in my life. A harem is every man's dream, right?　...... Come to think of it, you have a beautiful face if you look closely, don't you?
I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand.　I'm not sure what to do.

　--There was a commotion.
　Zveit had carved out a black history that makes me blush even now.

I was a little affected by brainwashing magic at the time. ......
Brainwashing, isn't that what it's all about?
One of the killers is still missing. One of the perpetrators is still missing. If I find him, I'll tear him to pieces. ......

　The original Bremite is missing.
　He was a man of shame and anger who occasionally remembered.
　Even now, his clenched fists were trembling with rage, and Soukis felt some sympathy for the culprit. 　
　But the truth was that the Blemites had already been captured by the Solstaires and were being forced to work behind the scenes.
　He will never see the light of day again because of the harm he has done to the Dukes.
　Zveit, the victim of his family's actions, is unaware of this fact. His trauma never cleared up, and it was truly pathetic.

"Ha-ha-ha!　Long time no see, Creston. You've shrunk even more than the last time we met, haven't you?
"Nonsense!　You're the one who's bulging with muscle. Extra muscle only makes you heavier. They only hinder your body's movement.

　At this soiree, where the nobles of the neighborhood gather, the Viscount Elwell's family will naturally be there as well.
　But for some reason, there was old Sergus there.

"Master Sergus?　No, I understand that Viscount Elwell is coming here, but he's a complete outsider right now. Why are you here?
Zveit, who?
He's a leading researcher in tactical magic. He's the one who taught the usefulness of specialized mages, but the mage corps at the time put pressure on him and he was kicked out. Well, maybe it was for the best, since he didn't agree with them either. He's also someone I respect.
"Hmmm, ...... well, what do I care?

　Sorkis is also a mage after all. He was very indifferent to things that did not interest him.
　In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. Even though they are like this, they are very close.
　As a side note, Sergus is basically indifferent to things that don't interest him, and is always thinking of various tactics used in history that he remembers, and thinking about the tactics that mages capable of close combat should use.
　Because he always looked like he was in a daze, he was dishonorably called a daywalker, but he didn't care.
　But he doesn't mind. He is a man who will always follow his own will.

It's just that you haven't trained hard enough. As long as you train your muscles well, you can handle speed later. With the help of magic, you'll be invincible.
"I agree that mages should be trained to fight with more than just magic, but too much muscle is too much!　As usual, I don't know where you're going with this.
"Of course not, Supreme Being. Of course, you're the strongest. Where is the handsome man you once were?
Leave me alone!　Why are you here? I don't like gatherings of nobles. You said it was a waste of time to go.
I'm just here to chaperone a student. Otherwise, who would come to a place that smells like perfume?

　When Sergas said this, Soukis agreed with him, "Oh, I think I'd get along with that old man. Apart from that, Zveit reacted to the word "pupil" and unknowingly looked for the person.
　Whether by design, fate's trickery, or just coincidence, the person was surprisingly close by.
　Zveit and the person were just looking at each other.
　That person was Viscountess Christine de Elwell.

There .........

　This was the second time they had looked at each other in a laser beam, including today.
　For some reason, both of them did not say a word, but were unable to move due to unexpected heart palpitations and embarrassment. An unseasonal hurricane called love was blowing between them.
　Soukis, unaware of this, looks at Tsveit with a curious expression.

"Why are you staring at me so hard, Tveit?
"............
Are you listening to me?
............
...... Hmm. Hey, do you mind if I go hit on that girl?


"What?　What the hell did you just say?
"Oh, I reacted. I see, I see. ......

　I'm sure you'll be able to understand what I mean by Zveit's attitude.
　I'm Soukis Vel Rivia," he said, approaching Christine with a light step. I'm Soukis Ver Libyanto. I'm sorry, but I need to know your name. My friend is like that.

"What?　Ah, ......, my name is Christine de Elwell. I'm Christine de Elwell, head of the family of Viscountesses vassal to the Dukes of Solstice. ......
I'm not sure what to make of that. It's very unusual, it's also a knightly family~.
Yes. ......

　It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything you like.
　This is a great way to make sure that you are getting the most out of your money.

And you usually use the first person as me. Oh no, you're just like me!
"I'm sorry. I grew up in a predominantly male environment, so I'm not familiar with the feeling of being a woman.
Yeah, yeah. I think it's better for me to be comfortable. By the way, what is your relationship with Zveit?　I'm not sure if it's because I don't feel like a woman.
"...... who's a muzzie!

　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
　This is a great way to make sure you are getting the most out of your time and money.

I'm not sure what to say. I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had to deal with this. Why did you have to hit me?
"I wouldn't have hit you either if you hadn't said that. I'm sorry, Christine. ....... This idiot just got in trouble.
No, no. ....... So, you two are close, huh?
I find this guy annoying sometimes.
What?　Zveit and I are best friends, isn't that too much to ask?

　It's not that we don't get along, but Soukis is in a way the same kind of person as his brother Croisus.
　He is a troublemaker who is always loyal to his interests and occasionally shakes those around him. After getting to know him, Zveit has somehow become a victim of his own accord.
　He can do whatever he wants, but the more damage he causes, the better it is for Croisus, who causes trouble without his knowledge.
　Well, Croisus is also causing a lot of trouble in the area, instead of causing any real harm to Zveit. .......

I've been told by the other dukes to keep an eye on you because you're a frequent troublemaker. Why do I have to act as your guardian?
"I don't know. Besides, I've never bothered anyone. Don't treat me like Croesus.
Are you serious?　No, it's true that you're a little better than him, but you're causing more than a little damage because of your similarities in behavior.
"What?　I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure you'll be able to do it.
You're doing it!　You're a nuisance to everyone around you because you suddenly disappear!　At least say something before you go out.
I don't know, I don't ask, I don't understand!　I'm not going to lose my freedom!

　Yeah. Soukis was too uninhibited.
　When he thinks of something, he does it. Even though he was the heir to a duke's house, he ran out into the city without any guards, annoying the servants and attendants of the house.
　Because he acts suddenly and without warning, no one can predict his actions.
　In addition, he had a high ability of concealment.

I don't know why I have to look for him when I go to your territory. ....... Christine, be careful. Be careful, Christine. If you get attached to this guy, you'll have a hard time like I did.
Hahaha. ......
Zveit, you found me with one shot. That's love!
"You're saying weird things with a straight face!

　I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who's a fan of your work.
　I'm not sure if you've heard of it, but I'm sure you have. ≫I'm not sure what to make of that. The eyes of the male nobles are particularly sharp.
　And some rotten ladies were listening with their ears like flying elephants.

"I want to hug you, Zveit.
"......, shut up.
I don't care. I'm going to give you a hug, Zveit. I don't care if you end up crying into your pillow because you miss me.
"So don't say anything creepy!



　Soukis walks out of the hall in anger.
　But here, Zveit realized his intentions.

I'm not sure what to say.　I'm sure he's going to use ...... me to get away!　He's definitely trying to skip out!
"What?　I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to get the best out of it.　You can't do that!
It's not okay. Probably because there's a dance coming up after the buffet, he planned a quick getaway to get away from those idiots. He improvised.
Why are you running away from other men?　Mr. Soukis is .......
Yeah, a guy. But for some reason, he's popular with guys too. I've had a lot of guys ask me to dance, and they've always come to me. He must have figured it would be the same this time and made an excuse to get out of here early.
"That's amazing. If you can be so tactful on the spur of the moment, you can be a military strategist.

　Soukis is certainly resourceful.
　He is usually a self-centered person who has some sense of decency.
　For Soukis, running away from unpleasant things is a matter of course, and the duties and responsibilities of a nobleman are nothing but a burden. He made his subjects cry when he openly declared his true intentions.
　This is the next head of the family, so I fear for his future.

My father will kill me later. ......
The Duke of Delsacis seems to be very strict about such things.
It's always me who gets caught in the middle. He's probably going to get away with it until this soiree is over.
"...... Master Zveit.

　Christine felt a hint of melancholy in Zveit's back.
　In the event that you've got any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, we'll be happy to assist. After all, they are jointly and severally liable.
　Christine understood Zveit's grief when he explained. It is now certain that he will be scolded.
　It seems that he was destined to have a hard time because he was too serious.

"I'm sorry about that. I'm sorry I made you look bad.
"No, no, you're really good friends with ......, aren't you? I don't have any friends, no, I'm a little jealous. ......
"Well, that's not so bad. Sometimes I want to cut ties with him. ....... You can talk to me in your normal tone of voice if you want.　I'm curious.
That's not how it works, sir. I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will help you.　No, I'll help you.
I'm afraid of my father, but I can't leave this place because of my position. I'm the organizer, after all. I can't just leave this place to your grandfather.
"Oh, by the way, you and I were just at .......
"......?

　Zveit remembered. The two of them hurried to find out what happened.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.
　There was no sign of Creston and the others in the hall, and they hurried out into the corridor to find the noble guests gathered incongruously in front of the door to the courtyard.
　Perhaps it had developed into a serious contest.

"Hey, you're faster now that you've shrunk!　You're moving too fast.
"I can't be hit by a brute force fist!　A sluggish attack is useless if it doesn't hit. Take that!
"Ha-ha-ha!　Such an attack would be useless against my well-developed muscles. No, no, no, no!
".........

　Two of my people are in the middle of a fight in the courtyard.
　They sound like they're having a little fun.

I thought you two were friends.
Like friends in a fight. I've heard of them, but they're really starting fights all over the place. ....... I've heard of you, but you really do pick fights everywhere.

　Creston and Sergas are each other's best friends and rivals at the same time.
　Whenever they meet, the first thing that happens is that they always end up arguing and start fighting everywhere. Zveit had heard of this story as a rumor, but he never thought it was true.
　Moreover, it was insane to start a fight at an event where many nobles were gathered, but it was possible that this common sense had taken root among the nobles.
　In fact, the nobles who had enough money in their pockets had already started betting. Among the bettors, there was a maid I had seen before.

"Master Creston, how nimble your steps are at your age. The Mage of Purgatory seems to be in good health even now.
"Lord Sergus, you're getting fitter and fitter. You are very strong.


"As expected of the so-called Mage of Destruction. A blow like that would not go unanswered.
"No, Master Creston's movements are also a threat. He flutters like a butterfly and stings like a bee. Oh!　Is that a Dempsey roll?
But the blow doesn't have the power of Lord Sergus.
"That's why you're hitting him with your fists in rapid succession, isn't it?　But Lord Sergus is tougher than he looks.
Oh, my God, Sirgus just got hit in the jaw with a flying knee!
No way, how can he take that and be okay? ....... Is Lord Sergus really human?
Didn't they say he was a daylight sleeper?
I'm not sure what to make of that. In reality, he is a very belligerent and dangerous man.

　After the buffet, a ball was to be held, but before that, a battle was to be fought.
　Both of them are mages, but they don't use any magic at all, and are talking to each other using only physical language. Moreover, both of them seemed to have high fighting skills.
　The guests of honor, the nobles, couldn't help but gasp as their heated battle unfolded at a dizzying pace. There was no way to miss even a single second of this great battle.

"Grandfather ......, you are indeed a nobleman. It's not good for the rest of us.
"Sir ......, why did you start a fight in a duke's house .......? If you're not careful, we'll be destroyed.
I'm not sure if you've heard of it, but I'm sure you've heard of it. Rather, they were amused and said, "Good. He's the kind of guy who says, 'Good. Do it with all your might so that no one is left behind.
It's hard for me to accept that kind of generosity.

　The generosity of the Dukes of Solstice was so painful that Christine's mended first-person voice returned to its original form. In fact, it hurt.
　And the heart, too. ..........

I'm not sure what to say.　Creston's kick and Sergas's punch seemed to intersect,..........
I don't believe this is ......
A cross-counter of kicks and fists. ～～～～～～～～～?
Good stuff.

　The fight fest between the two old men continued for a while after that.
　In the background, none of the nobles in the hall knew that the Marquis, who was in charge of hosting the event, was weeping and crying.

My body is finally warming up. This is where it all begins!
You can challenge me as often as you like. "Nuh-uh, you can challenge me as many times as you like, but my muscles will repel all of your attacks!　And I'll give you up for good.
"No!　If I can do it, I can do it!
You can't drink my spit!　You'll die!

　Thus, the dance on the program was canceled, and the battle match hosted by the duke's family was extended.
　Needless to say, his students and grandchildren were having a hard time.
