As I understand it, only Temma is the only one who has ever had to deal with a nobleman's next head of state.

　Albert was sighing with dismay after hearing my explanation. In contrast, Cain, who was the real deal this time, laughed, and Rion left the response to the two of us to enjoy the barbecue with Uncle Mark and the others.

''Well, I don't mind being a bug repellent. I was originally told by my father about Amy, and he told me to help her if anything happened to her.

　Cain said, and began to stroke Amy's head. Aimee was surprised to suddenly be stroked on the head by an older man, but she didn't seem to dislike it. When Tida saw this, she looked at me impatiently and for some reason, she looked at me.

'Cain, why are you petting that boy? Are you a type, by any chance?

　The one who appeared in such a situation was Rion, the three idiots' badass brainiacs. With those words, Tida and I said, "Well done for listening to me! He looked at Cain's reply, cheering heartily.

'No! It's just that I rarely get to interact with kids this young. He's like a sister... because my brother is that thing(s).

Oh my god, I'm sorry.

'Totally. I'm planning to go on a blind date next time, and if I try to mess with Amy, it'll end up in a lot of ways... socially and physically...

　Cain was annoyed by Rion's question, but there was something in his words that he couldn't miss.

'Heh? Cain, are you going on a blind date?

That's right.

　Cain replied to the stupefied Rion in a matter-of-fact manner. We were all quite surprised by her words, but the one who was most surprised was probably Mr. Cliffe. I was so surprised that my eyes were about to pop out of my head. Perhaps it's because I gather information on the aristocracy for both hobby and practical purposes, but information I didn't know about popped up in this place. Since it's an excessively rare sight, if I had a smartphone, I would take a series of pictures and save them, and even keep a backup.

It's time to start thinking about the future.

　

'Finally, you've come to think that way too?

　Albert was the first to react to Cain's thoughts. He wondered why he was talking like that.

"Master Temma, Master Albert has a fiancée. She is the eldest daughter of the Countess, I believe.

　Mr. Cliffe instantly gave me an earful, just to redeem my honor. Certainly, from Albert's point of view, it wouldn't be surprising if he had one or two fiancées, but to think that the three of them were doing something stupid in a row while he had a fiancée, I felt a little pity for Albert's fiancée, who I had never seen before.



　Since it would be troublesome to talk to these three people in a distant way, I decided to ask them straight. I was a little concerned about the fact that Rion hadn't said a single word since earlier, but since it was more important to me whether the purpose of inviting the three of them was accomplished, I ignored it and asked, and Albert and Cain nodded more easily than I had expected.

''I promise that I personally and the Sangha dukes will side with the disciples of Temma (...). But only to the extent that no harm will come to the duke's family.

''Of course the Marquis of Samoens will be on Amy's side. As long as Amy is a member of the Tamer's Guild and my dad is the representative, Amy is sort of in the 'royalist' camp in a way.

　Although both of them have some hints, they have promised to back Amy. Of course, this would be on the condition that I don't leave the royalist faction, but that would give the two of them an excuse to become the backbone of Aimee (civilian). That way, if the other nobles say anything, they can say that it's to keep the Dragonslayer (Temma) and the Wise Man (Merlin) connected to the royalists.

''So, what are you going to do about Rion?''

I don't understand...

　At Cain's words, Leon, who hadn't shown any movement until then, slowly opened his mouth. And it's a word of denial.

''No, I'm not saying it's unreasonable, but isn't it in the best interest of the Howst frontier county?

　Hearing Albert's words, Rion's eyes widened as he stared at Albert and Cain.

'Not that way! The only thing I'd rather have in my corner is the kid's backing, given the relationship with Tenma! What I'm trying to say is, why is Cain getting a matchmaking offer, and not just Albert! I don't even have one coming to me!

You're over there!　

　Hearing Rion's heart cry, I couldn't help but tsk-tsk. It's true that considering the relationship between me and the Haust Frontier Earl family (a relationship that the world thinks is only a relationship), the matter of Aimee could help improve things from Leon's point of view, so it would be strange to refuse. But still, as much as I want to scream, I don't see how Rion can't get an arranged marriage proposal? But for some reason, Amour stood in front of Leon.

''It can't be helped. The two of us over here are fine as long as we keep quiet and keep quiet. Rion's too hot to keep quiet and quiet! If a woman who knows nothing about anything, it's pretty obvious which one she'd choose!

　Amur points at Rion with a big smile and confronts him with the fact (...). Rion froze like a stone in shock at those words, Cain sat down and laughed hysterically while holding his stomach, and Albert held his mouth with his hand to hold back his laughter. And of course, we (including Uncle Mark and the others) who were listening to the conversation around them laughed out loud. As expected, Mr. Cliffe and Aina didn't openly express themselves, but they seemed to be struggling to hold back their laughter.

'Well, well, it doesn't help that Rion isn't popular, but how do we get the three of them to connect with Aimee... it doesn't make sense if we don't make the people who are harassing us understand the relationship between Aimee and the three of them.

　Forcing the conversation back to the main topic, I left Rion, who was still stuck by Amur's verbal attack, alone and asked Albert and Cain about it. The two of them were struggling to contain their laughter, but they began to think seriously as they were out of breath. And the answer they came up with was.....

''The three of us will go to the academy under the guise of casing our future colleagues and potential vassals. We'll have to tell the headmaster the truth, but I'm sure the other staff members will be able to cover it up. During that visit, I'll take it in the direction of visiting Tida-sama's class, which happened to be (...) teaching in the open air, and noticing Amy's presence and talking to her.

'Then you can tell them I'm being asked to help Amy by bringing up my father. After smelling that he wanted to bring Tenma in through Amy, Albert and Leon noticed this and tried to prevent it, and both families tried to bring Amy to them as well. So let's create a three-way tie-up, and then finally the three families will be able to help Amy, and we'll be able to settle it as a favor to Temma together.

　Neither of us took the time to discuss it in detail, but we made a path for how it would feel and how we would take it. It would need to be boiled down a bit more, but it seemed to work well enough as it was.

''But if they suddenly show up and start fighting, and then solve the problem themselves, wouldn't that be too deliberate?

　All you have to do is let Amy know that she has more than one ally with considerable power, so even if the students who are harassing her find out, it's okay if they find out, but some of the students might really become colleagues or subordinates in the future, so she'll tell her parents' house that the three of them don't get along, or that they've been fighting in front of the students' eyes If this is the case, they may try to use it as proof to cut down the royalists. Those close to the three of them wouldn't mind, but the further down the line they got, the more they would believe it, and some of them might turn to the Reformers, fearing for the future of the Royalists.
　When I told them about this, they thought it was a bad idea and started to think about coming up with a different plan, but....

So there's no need to fight about it? The three of us just need to make it seem like you and Amy are good friends.

　And surprisingly, such words came out of Luna's mouth. Sure, there was no need to fight if they were just going to show how well they were getting along, but the question was how to make it happen...

Why don't you tell your brother to stop? It was your brother's fault in the first place, and he needs to be held accountable.

　And again, Luna made another suggestion. Indeed, if there was anyone who could stop the three of them on the spot, it was only Tida, the Emperor's grandchild.

'It's not so bad, is it? If Tida stopped the three of them at the time when they were about to turn nasty, it would look like nothing more than a small argument from a fight between the three of them, and that much was a daily occurrence for the nobles. Besides, Tida might be able to convince the students in the room that she has the wherewithal to restrain the three older men, and also the future royalist heavyweight candidates.

'Besides, the three people who want to sell their debt to Temma like that and Tida-sama, who has the wherewithal to keep it in check, make you think that Amy has her back... because even if the students couldn't understand that, they would tell the story to their parents' house... So there's a good chance that the student's parents will tell Amy not to mess with him or get along with him?

'I'm sure there will be some students who will flirt with Amy, but there will be almost no students who will harass her. That is, if they don't have a pretty blown-up personality... but just for the record, not everyone in the class is harassing you, right?

'Yes. I don't have many, but I do have some friends in my class.　

　Cain's question was answered by Amy, who had been listening quietly until then. Then he said that those kids and Tida would be able to get in between them, so that students with bad ideas would not be able to get close to them. I wondered if those kids had that kind of power, but at this point in time, the idea of befriending Amy, although there are some kids who sincerely think so, there are also kids (from the aristocracy) who are aware of their guardian, who is behind me, so if they have the backing of Tida (the royal family), they won't be able to get in touch with her so easily. He explained. Of course, don't tell Amy about this story.

　Anyway, our business with Rion and the others is done, and we were going to give them a souvenir and ask them to leave, but they decided to stay on because they were free and could eat something delicious. Amy and her friends also enjoyed the barbecue with the uncles because they had time before the school's dormitory curfew, and after they finished eating, they played in the garden.

''Me-~!''
Yikes!

　Their playmates were Merry and the others, and Luna had just been rolled over by Merry after she had been physically attacked by him. Most of all, Luna, who had been rolled over, laughed amusedly and went to bump into Mary just to return the favor, so they might be more on the same page than expected.
'Phew!'
　This time he was hit in the face by a body shot.

Sir, I think I've squeezed enough!　

　After watching Luna and Mary for a while, Amy and Tida brought a bucket of milk. They seemed to have gone to Juve and the others and asked Aunt Martha to milk Hiro.
　Since milk is the mother's milk, it should only be produced if you are pregnant, but I heard that the cows in this world continue to store the nutrients from the food they eat inside their bodies, and when they exceed the allowable amount, they naturally try to get out. As a result, they either consume nutrients or increase their excrement (undigested portion) by themselves through natural fasting, and the female is said to produce it as milk.

'Good work. That needs to be fired up, so if you want to drink it, just tell Aina and she'll bring you some okay stuff.

　Even though it's possible to sterilize it with 'purification' magic, it's not a panacea, and there might be something wrong with it, so I wouldn't go out of my way to make them drink unpasteurized milk, even at the risk. Well, if it's me or my grandfather or something, it won't upset my stomach - in fact, it was fine when I drank it before.

'As you work out, you'll naturally develop a tolerance for it, and then I'll make you drink the milk in a better condition. Or you can learn to use your own 'purification' magic. Well, it's only at your own risk.

　They looked envious when they heard that it was better milk, but when I told them that I would never let them drink it until they met the requirements, they were enthusiastic about learning the magic of 'purification'. It's true that learning magic might be faster than training your body.

''Then I'll be fine. I'm working out, and I won't get sick to my stomach for a minute or two!

　And then Leon came into the conversation from the side....

Of course not. In the first place, since I told you two no, I'm not going to drink it right here, showing it off.

No way in hell I'm going to do that, Leon.

You're a very shy one, aren't you?

　When I refused, Cain and Albert also agreed. Not only Leon, these two seemed to be interested in the milk of the white wild cow, and they seemed to be listening in.

''Aina, Aura, bring me some fire-roasted milk.

　Not only Amy and her friends, but also Albert and his friends started to wait near me when they heard that they could drink milk. When Luna saw everyone gathering, she came over to me, forcing Merry, who was acting up, to come over to me and when she heard that she could drink the milk, she was so happy that she took one hand off Merry and Merry fell to the ground.
　The fallen Merry bounced and rolled several times on the ground and stopped in front of Leon.

'Oops! This is the new cattle in Temma! That's surprisingly beautiful hair!

　The moment Leon squatted down to pet Mary, who had rolled to her feet, tragedy struck.

'Meh!'
Ugh......................

　The tragedy was caused by the fact that Rion's hips were spread apart, Merry had been forcibly picking him up yesterday and today and was stressed out, and the fact that Rion's groin was at Merry's head level with Merry's.... In other words, Rion was morosely hit by Merry's head butt between his legs.

''Ugh........''

　The men present (me, Tida, Albert and Cain) saw the tragedy that occurred before their eyes and moved to get their crotch out of Mary's line of fire before they could worry about Leon.

'Meh! Meh! Meeeeeeeee!

　Merry didn't notice us casually separating, and as a further follow-up, she threw herself at Leon. However, fortunately, Rion was lying face down, so he avoided receiving a follow-up blow to his crotch (which was kicked with his paw).

'Whoa ... my crotch just hummed.

We have to save Miss Lyon!

'It's all right, Lady Tida! He's tougher than most people, and he's not going to get any dumber than that. In fact, if you approach him carelessly here, this one (between his legs) is in danger!

　Tida was the only one who tried to move to help Rion, but Albert lectured her on the dangers of approaching him while undermining him, and Cain casually took refuge behind me.

''Meh~.......meh!

　Merry continued to kick Leon for a while, then finally stomped on his head and said, "I'll give you a break on this one! He let out a squeal that sounded like... and left.

'Gone....'

Leon, are you okay?

Um ... is he alive?

Want to throw a potion on it just to be sure?

　After making sure Merry was away from Leon, I checked on Leon's condition and I wondered if he wasn't breathing. He didn't move so slightly that he was not moving. I checked for a pulse in my neck and took out an old potion from my magic bag and sprinkled the contents from Rion's head to his crotch.

''Ugh........here, between my legs.......''

Is it dead?

　The coldness of the potion brought Rion back to consciousness, and he seemed to remember the pain between his legs as he tried to get up. Hearing my words, Rion hurriedly checked his crotch, but was relieved to find that it had not been crushed.

''Just when I was relieved, the pain started again...''

There it is.

　When I handed the old potion that was left over to Leon, who began to hold his crotch again, he told me to "cure me with magic, not medicine" or something like that, but I refused immediately because I didn't want to touch Leon's crotch. Even Rion, as expected, seemed confused about sprinkling the potion I gave her between her legs on the spot, and instead of pouring it on her, she drank it down.

''Ahhh........I think it's working.......''

　Although it was an old potion, it didn't seem to have deteriorated since it was kept in a magic bag. So I named it an old potion and gave it to Leon as a substitute for wabi.

''Surprisingly, there's a lot left.

　There were about twenty small bottles of the old potion (about two hundred milliliters in size), and Rion drank about five of them immediately after receiving them. Drinking a lot of it wouldn't speed up his recovery, but as they say, sickness starts with the mind, and if Leon misunderstood that the more he drank, the faster his recovery would be, it might distract him from the pain a little.

'Master Temma, I have milk and cheese for you.

　Just as Leon finished drinking the old potion, Aina and Aura brought Hiro's milk and the cheese made from it from the kitchen. This cheese was one of the first prototypes that my uncles asked someone they knew to make for me, and it was my share (for the ingredient donor). It wasn't aged very well, but the quality of the milk is good, and the cheese itself is not too strong, making it a very high-quality (good) cheese even now.

It's very tasty!
Maybe it's the fact that it's preserved so well that it tastes better than what we drink at home.
'Phew~ another one! Now hot!
I'm with you!

　When Aina heard Luna and Amur's unreserved request, she checked with me and then went to get another cup of hot milk. Aimee and Tida were also looking to drink the hot milk at that point, but when Aina came to check, I told them to bring a few of them in a pot, and they were happy when I told them there would be refills for everyone.

'Cheese makes me want wine,'
'The cheese is good, but the milk is on a level I've never had before. That's a white cow.
....

　The three idiots, unlike Amy and the others, often tasted the milk and cheese and shared their impressions of it. However, only Albert and Cain were the only two who were giving their impressions, while Rion only nodded occasionally with a subtle look on his face. That didn't change even if they drank the hot milk that Aina had brought with her. Because.........

I'm so hungry, I can't even taste it...

　I couldn't tell the difference between my usual milk and cheese, which I've drunk and eaten many times before, and the milk and cheese from the white cow, because of the harm caused by drinking too many old potions plus eating too much barbecue.
　As for the stones, there was nothing we could do about it, and after we finished drinking, Albert and Cain approached us to buy milk and cheese (most of all, the cheese was a small quantity, so we immediately refused), but Leon was the only one who didn't understand the value of milk and cheese, and later on, when he got back on track, he decided to have a small amount of milk to taste it to make sure it tasted good. He regretted it when he got home.
　Incidentally, Rion had come to our house the next day and wanted to buy some milk, but the extra milk had been bought up by Albert and Cain the day before and there was no milk left, and because Hiro hadn't offered him any new milk (Aunt Martha had predicted that he wouldn't offer it for a few days), Rion was crying and crying. He gave up the milk and left.
