Chapter 2 (1/2)
Amaku Yasashi+ Sekai de Ikiru ni wa Chapter 2
“Well then, Mother and Father are going to leave now Stay in bed and rest, OK?” (Serena)
“Even though the doctor said it is fine right now, you need to be careful because you still have a slight fever”(Alan)
“OK I understand… Father, ht” (Doyle)
“We love you Doyle, good night” (Father and Mother)
Father softly rubbed ently to my forehead Mother leaned down and kissed ed the butler to watch over lass of water and a bell to call if I needed help She left reluctantly and Meryl, the maid, spoke to me
“Well then, youngthe bell or call if you require anything or need help” (Meryl)
“OK” (Doyle)
“Please stay in bed and rest, the Mada happens to you again” (Meryl)
“Yes, I know” (Doyle)
“Well then, we shall excuse ourselves” (Meryl)
I said that while laughing in h from her
Meryl has been with my mother since the time she was declared a saint by the Goddess, and I a me like a child
The way she treatsher child in unconditional and everlasting love I wonder, is it because Meryl is not married and has no children, and since she raised me as much as my mother, that she treats me as if I were her own?
I got up from the bed and drank some water
I feel a little bad, but to me, who had lived 21 years in
However, as I reic of the Saint could cure, it o back to bed and rest
I adjusted my body and started to think about my future and my past
You , ould I need to think about the future even though I aed and loved? Well, this is because if I do not fix the otten myself into, sooner or later I will experience an “accidental death” or be exiled frodom If you take a look at my life up to now, you will discover that I aame or drama
Well then, let’s take a look at my life up to now I have been violent with pretty much everyone, I have bullied and harassed anyone who I did not like, I haveskill or level of skill (even though I am not that skilled in any case), I have rather harassed and bullied all the people who are more skillful than me And all of these exarandfather, the forhinis and Hero of the Holy Lance, to now be arguing with my father to replace me as the future Duke
No matter how much my mother and father have done, or the fact I am the only son of the Saint and current Hero of the Holy Lance, the voice of randfather, who is the current Supreme Commander of the military, has tremendous influence in the affairs of nobles and politics
Moreover, other nobles are in favour of this proposal due to hters Evento defendquite the hard battle
But the defense my parents have done because of their affection and love, and also with the support of my fiancee, the third princess’ voice has lead to the delay of the proposal and my unavoidable execution
Especially the voice of the third princess has lead to the difference in opinion of the first prince and the king Prince wang and the king are the ones with the final say in this country, and if she did not have the power to stop both of theone
To be honest, both my parents and the princess think that this is just a phase, you know, a rebellious phase that I aotten it completely out of my system and turn into a hero
As expected of the thinking of a Saint, Hero, and also a kind princess They both love each other a lot and love me, and the princess treats me quite dearly She isfor everyone, love is blind
… Youall the things I have done, to have absolutely no eyes for other ht? As a childhood friend, as awill not change
Another person to mention would be Gray, another childhood friend He used to tell rew older, along with row apart, and now, my one and only friend in school would be the third princess, and I think even this is getting broken apart
With all that in her education and have the cere unsure whether my position as future Duke is safe or not If my “problematic behaviour” continues then I will either die by accident or by an unknown disease
After all, ifan adult, I will officially change hinis
It is quite common for children to die early here Whether you are a noble or a cos In this world, the most common cause of death is due to demons, and there are very few people who are able to use healing or recovery ic
The people who are able to use recovery ic are called Saints They are considered national treasures and are protected by either the country or the church, and thus many people are not able to have access to these services
And, it is because of children who die easily, that the countries and kingdom have all declared that until you are 15 – 16 years old, you cannot inherit a title or family name
Therefore, right now I am Doyle, the son of Serena and Alan, not the son of the Saint and the Duke Aghinis I have no authority, but this alsoI have done as a child, before my ceremony to become an adult, will have no implications on the future me who is still officially the future Duke and Hero of the Holy Lance This also ht noill implicate my parents
Nevertheless, it is impossible for parents to obey such a law And special cases, such as the princess or the king’s child who is in line for succession, who are technically affected by it, still hold the authority their names claims
Thus ht to ten send their children off to the academy This is a place where noblemen send their children to learn and be disciplined, but it is not only available to the nobility, it is also available to comet their children into the academy
To put it in a more simple manner, the academy is a place for noble children to learn discipline and for common children it is the path to become an elite, a stairway to become a noble in the country For powerful nobles and people who have connections with these powerful nobles can apply forhigher education, and couaranteed to become an elite in life
The higher education part in the academy is for nobles a way to build connections and relations with other nobles, while for common people it is a way to learn the way of the aristocratic society and learn the skills necessary to survive in this kind of world
Thus, in short, even though my actions as a student have no effect in terms of hinis, I aed representative of it and my actions yield a bad reflection on it
So even if right now they have no effect, in the future if I cause a big incident then not even my Father Alan, slayer of the Demon lord and Hero to the Holy Lance, or randfather Xeno, the military Supre
This is the reasonthe next heir of the household
Frorandfather’s expectations of me were to live like my father, marry the princess and help my childhood friend, Prince Gray obtain the throne and clear all and any enemies he may have in his path But I had deviated from that path, a bit
I understand the disappointrandchild it ht me how to use the spear, he had always made tiht with one
Even after this he is against my succession to become the head of the household, and this has not only been discussed recently, but rather for one or two years My grandfather has not stood down froh, no matter what I say noill not dissuade his decision or change his impression of me
So, to summarize, I am loved by the people around ed
