It was Foldente who brought me the heady news from my first morning.
'The Greed family, hey your sister, Causey, has taken over the Greed family...'
　As soon as he returned from King's Landing with transition magic, Foldente said that.
　But that in itself wasn't particularly surprising.
　I've heard the news that Prideaux and Tamar were apparently captured by the Guard Bureau, so I knew that would happen sooner or later.
　It was rather Foldente's next words that had me scratching my head.
''That Causey, hey.......was captured by the guard bureau for adultery, right?

　criminal adultery
　It is a charge that applies when you have an affair with a partner with a wife and child.

　Whatever, according to Foldente.
I heard that Causey was having a lot of relations with a man who had a wife and kids and he was being sued by all of them.
　It seems that their wives are all from the highest noble families.
I can't believe our husbands were cuckolded by that woman.
　And apparently it was an action that everyone had taken after they were all furious.

　If the Greed family still boasted the prestige of the four lords, the other party would have cried themselves to sleep without saying a word, and in fact, I heard that Causey had made the most of his position with his daughter-in-law, who came from the Greed family, to do whatever he wanted with her.
　
　But now that the Greed family has fallen, there's no need to be afraid of their family history.


　At my words, Foldente nods his head.
It's a good thing that you can't understand.......after all, there was no other example of an aristocratic family that had risen to the level of four dukes falling to this level of ruin.
　I couldn't help but sigh loudly at Foldente's words.

　I have no intention of reaching out to the Greed family.
　It's everyone who had done something that could not be helped if they had fallen to this level, so in a sense, they had it coming, and.......

　I asked Foldente to let me know if he heard any rumors about the Greed family while I was gathering information in King's Landing.

◇ ◇ ◇.

　I was a little depressed by the story of my former family's home first thing in the morning, but as a refreshing change of pace, I headed to the underground labyrinth control tower where Jean Barea was located.
''Ah, lord, welcome!''
　Giambalea greeted me at dusk with a smile.
　By the way, today's shirt was a white shirt with the word "gold" written in black letters on it in big letters.
　Jean Barea, whose taste in clothes is still poorly understood.
　I told her that
How's the hexenbiest you're analyzing?
　So I asked.
　Gianbarea shrugged his shoulders in front of me.
I'm still not sure. We're investigating it thoroughly, but this is the first time we've seen anything like this.
　So said Giambalea, and after a cackling pose.
Honestly, it's unbearable.
　Then he bowed his head as he clasped his hands together towards me.
　I hurriedly told Giambalea that there was no need to go that far, and after asking her to investigate for a while more, I left the administration building.

　I've got some time to spare, so I decided to have lunch with Erdena for the day.
　The place is my mansion.
　We had Erdena and Aura make a meal for us, but Erdena
I'm going to have to get serious about cooking soon.
　As he said this, he was bringing the fried vegetables for lunch to his mouth.

　Eldena and I are already registered.
　We have become a legal couple and have adopted Korok as our daughter.
　Maybe that's why I can see that Erdena has been trying out cooking and knitting a lot lately, but neither of us are quite there yet.
　Well, as a matter of fact, I've got Erdena doing important work for me, and when it comes to further training in housework on top of that.......

But still, you know, I want to be able to do it.
　Erdena smiled at me when she said that.
　I felt strangely invigorated when I saw her smile.

　We promised to have dinner together with Korok and Tiree in the evening, and then Erdena and I went back to our respective jobs.

　In the afternoon I headed to the guard station.
　The purpose of this is to discuss how to deal with the demonic beasts that have appeared in the old frontier village with the head of the Guard, Gugus.
　When I went to the Guard Bureau, the Deputy Lord Vibrina had already arrived there.
　Since Biblina is also in charge of managing the Guard Bureau, she was asked to come here.
''Mm, Safate, you're right on time.
　Biblina, who was drinking tea on the reception set, smiled and said to me, "You're the one who always comes early.
Biblina is the one who always comes early.
　After exchanging such greetings, me and Biblina began to discuss the matter with Googs.

　Unfortunately, we didn't come up with much of a good plan.

In the meantime, the only thing I can think of is to send Lil' Pop and his elite troops all over again,
　As Gugus said this, he folded his arms at the back of his head and looked up at the ceiling.　

　In the end, it was agreed that on this day, they would organize another unit to head to the old settlement village again.
　However, as for the departure, they have settled on the fact that they will only leave after the results of the detailed analysis of the captured magical beasts that Jean Barea is doing.

　After that, I dealt with a few guests in the reception room of the town hall.
　Even now, there are elderly people who come to congratulate me on Liberty Combe's status as an outlying city, so that's how I'm dealing with them.

　In between visiting duties, I was doing my usual paperwork.
　
　Then the time for me to go to work arrived.
　Today, the day was all about confirming the current situation.
　It's not a bad idea, but it's not a bad idea.

　........what will happen to my former family members from now on....
　I can't help but think about such thoughts.
　However, the only thing left for me to do now is to think.

　That evening, we all had a dinner party with Eldena, along with Korok and Tiree.
　Aura and her sister Ela, who always participates as maids, also decided to have dinner together.
Aura and Ela will be together!　Just a bear!
　As he said this, Korok continued to eat.
　Korok always looks really good and happy as he eats.
　I can't help but feel cheered when I see him...he has such a wonderful smile.

　I have to do my best for everyone.
