138 . The city of the royal capital 1



 The next morning, I woke up quite early.

 The bed was wide and fluffy, but I guess my body still wasn't used to it.

 I stood up once, standing up taller.

 knocking

 And there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Hey, little girl, are you getting up now?
 Yes, I heard Unja's voice.

'Well, since you're here, let's get up.
 As I say this, I get up from the bed in my nightgown.
 Then Unja opened the door and came into the bedroom.
"Good morning again, Botchan," she said.
 Unja bows her head in that way.
 That outfit is the usual maid's uniform.
 Since I woke up, there was still very little time between us........
Unja, when the hell did you change? I can't believe you were here as soon as I woke up and you're already dressed.
 When I asked her that, she smiled at me.
It's only natural for a maid to be able to do that.
 That said.
Well, I'll go get you a cup of tea, so please excuse me.
 I walked towards the kitchen.

 I was a little surprised to see the back of it.

 As I suspected, Unja was in a hurry to get dressed, and one of the buttoned back parts was off....

Unja....
What is it, little girl?
Well the buttons on my clothes are....

Meow!

 Unja, who has always had a fast-paced, cheerful image.
 She was so distraught.

This Una will be the snake of a lifetime.
 While saying that, with a bang, he took off his jacket once and.............................unja! You're not even wearing any underwear!

 The breasts, which are quite voluminous, are ... no, no, I didn't see them, I didn't see them.

Anyway, I hope you'll forget about that little blunder.
 Wunya, zealously, moved to the kitchen to make tea again.

◇ ◇ ◇.

 There was a table on the balcony, so we decided to have a cup of tea there.

 Since Quinn's mansion is located on the outskirts of the capital, it is close to the city walls.
 You can see it on the right side of the balcony, but on the left side of the balcony, you can see a tranquil cityscape.

 It is not like the city center of King's Landing where buildings that are dozens of stories high stand in a row, nor are there any shops lined up without gaps like the streets.

 Nevertheless, the houses in the surrounding area are all more appropriately described as mansions, and their garden areas are all very large.
 There is a wide waterway in Ai Dae, and some of the mansions have boats floating on it.

''I've lived in the royal capital for more than 20 years myself but this is the first time I've seen the sights of this area.
 I whisper to myself as I bring my tea to my mouth.
 Unja smiles at me and says
It can't be helped. When the noblemen of King's Landing have business to attend to, they will summon you to their residences.
 Yes, he told me.

 In addition to racial supremacy, the status disparity in King's Landing is quite severe.
 There are not a few people who openly change their attitudes just because of whether or not they have a title.

 ........Just because I'm the son of a famous aristocratic family, the Greed family, I was treated as a child and in my childhood......
 I remember I didn't like that, and I even transferred to a regular school using a fake name... but they found out soon enough and took me back.


 I finished my tea and put my cup down.
"Would you like another cup of tea, little one?
'No it looks like there's still time for breakfast, so let's take a walk in the garden.
 When I said that, Unja said.
Okay, I'll go and do some cleaning up, so please be patient.
 As he said this, he put the cup I had finished drinking from into a tray and moved to the kitchen.

◇ ◇ ◇.

 Soon after, me and Unja leave the room and walk down the hallway.
 Then.
Good morning, Mr. Gossage. Where are you off to?
 While saying that, Kirko, the maid of Quinn's mansion, ran over and bowed reverently.

 Even though I've decided to call myself Gossage in the royal capital, I'm used to being called Gossage in Safate, I still feel terrible about the discomfort, thinking that

'I woke up early, so I thought I'd take a little walk in the garden.
 When I said that, Kirko said.
Well, in that case, I'll let Kirko here show you around.
 As he said that, he turned his back on me and Unja.

 ...Oh.

 Um, apparently, I was unexpectedly in the hallway.
 Kirko also seems to have been in quite a hurry to put on her maid's uniform, and the buttons on her back are off one by one.......

◇ ◇.

Well, what can I say, I hope you'll forgive me for my earlier error.
 Led by a red-faced Kirko, Unya and I were ushered into the garden.

 Unna is not really poking around, probably because she's done it herself this morning.
 I'm not sure if it's because I'm doing the same thing, but I'm not sure if it's because I'm a little embarrassed about it, and she pinches my back.


 The garden I was led to
 According to yesterday's description, it should be managed by the Menoko of the Monocular Tribe.

 The garden is not that large, but it is very well maintained.
 However, as the description said, there are many edible vegetables, or rather fruitful things planted in the garden.

 There are flowers and grasses in the garden.
 If you look closely, these are all herbs, so that means they're edible too.

'The Menoko maintain this place, maybe at this time of day...'
 Kirko looked around.
Oh, isn't that Kirko? What's going on, so soon?
 I've been hearing these voices and it sounded like they were coming from way up high.

 I looked up at him.
 There was a Menoko on a high ladder that was in the middle of harvesting the fruit that was at the top of the tree.

 Such a Menoko, when he noticed us next to Kirko
'This is Master Gossage! I've been looking down on you from such a high place... aww.
 I tried to get off the ladder in a flamboyant hurry.
'Oh, don't mind me, just keep working. You can treat me as family while you're in the care of this mansion.
 Menoko was still very much afraid when I said so.

 However, after we were in such a hurry that the ladder almost fell over, Menoko finally resumed her work quietly.
'I'm harvesting the ingredients for today's breakfast I want you all to have as much fresh food as possible.
 Menoko smiled at that and smiled.
I'd like to have more meat, though.
 And the demon Lerd, who seemed to be on his way to the patrol, walked up to our side, laughing.
 To such a Lerdo, Menoko...
You serve the meat from the field every day, don't you?
 While saying that, he put his hands on his hips.
 To such a Menoko, Lerdo gives a look of obvious disapproval.
It's about the beans, isn't it? It's true that there's no nutrition in it, but I wouldn't feel like eating a bowl of rice with something that simple, even if I ate a whole bowl of it, that I wouldn't feel like eating it.
 Such a discussion has begun.

 However.
 I was unexpectedly able to have a chat with everyone working at the residence, and I was happy to be able to feel a little closer to them.

◇ ◇.

 After that, once I returned to my room, I was led by Kirko to the breakfast room shortly afterwards.

 The room was not the guest room from yesterday, but the dining room everyone always uses.
 Although not as large or luxurious as yesterday's, this room was also nicely appointed and had flowers on the desk.

 Kirko said.
The Menoko will chop them up and make a tea for you later.
 I heard that.
 I was really impressed with how much they were getting wasted.

 After happily finishing breakfast, I returned to my room and changed into my going-away clothes, while everyone laughed at the three bowls of simmered beans served to me.

 When Unja and I went to the front door, the carriage was already ready and Dengo the sheepman was waiting for us with the door open.
''Thank you for being on time, Miss Quinn is quite loose, so...''
 Dengo says that and smiles at me.

 Unja and I smiled back at him and got into the carriage.
 Soon after, the carriage began to drive towards the downtown area of the royal capital.
