However, it was quickly called off due to how the situation had quickly been settled
Marquis Morlot has been dealt withHis territory confiscated and became the Second Princess’ territory in return
On the rebel’s side……the responsible representativeWell, of course it’s Baron Descartes
After the fall of Marquis Morlot, I knew that Descartes will be held responsibleThen, how come it’s not Baron ParoeThat person is too ambitiousSo I reckoned that I can use it to our benefitTherefore, I spreaded ‘baits’ around hiuy…took it hook, line, and sinker
Baron Descartes was charged as the mastermind behind the rebellionHowever, he see up his territoryPerhaps also because a lot of people favored him for his braveryAs for the soldiers under him, it’s been settled that the First Prince will take over them

Returning to the capital, I headed back to sir Kasim’s residenceBut he wasn’t there, only a letter remained
The contents, were about his seclusion and my future
First, I want to retire to a certain place, and I forbid you fro for me
Next, you are younger thanfroulfed in turmoilMany heroes will appear, and one of theuide youAbout that, you’ll know since you have the talent for it
After reading the letter I packed up, and once again heading to the Northwest regionI’ve decided to return to Tristan territory
I’ll open a private school there and watch how the trend goes as time marches on
I asked Luke about it, and he in turn gave me a small house in the territoryI opened my private school there
Along the way Lina Parom-dono continuously pushed le tihter, but Lindono would keep returning to persuade o along with me
Then……few years went by since thenI’ve been teaching kids to read and write…as well as refusing the invitations from many to become an official
Apparently, my name became famous after that rebellionThe fact thatsir Kasim, and that he himself had paraded me around the continent few years before didn’t help either
Saying that I’m a person with [Tenfolds of Talents]
Really now, he’s truly who a s
Today I received another invitation from the officials, and I intended to refuse it as per usualYes, I intended to [refuse] back then…

[Well then, is there anything I can do for you?]
[Aa, sorryI disturbed you, didn’t I?]
Saying that, that person laughed and continued speaking to me
[Nice tolord]
[Hou, what is the son of the Archduke doing in public place like this?]
I quickly looked up as I said that
[I wanted to meet you, didn’t I already inform you before?]
[For what reason? Only a fool of an aristocrat would want to meet a teacher of a private school in the countryside in person]
Laughing, he then told me a name
[Kasireat fool of a disciple that I want you to meet』he said]
He then quietly sat next to me
[A recommendation to become your officer…is it?]
[A recommendation to become your officer…is it?]
[Eh? I don’t ht? I came here because he askedI intended to do…]
I was speechlessThis Archduke’s son seemed to sense that I felt troubled
[Anyways, KasiAlso, professor Artorius spoke good things about youIt’s just that…I don’t choose a retainer just from the recommendation and story of other peopleIf you don’t even know me, then hoould you serve me?]
[Well…that’s indeed true]
It’s strangeI was taken in by his pacingHowever…it didn’t feel uncomfortable
Our conversation continued until sunsetRecent events, histories, and about people…apparently he’s also the i about the current condition of the acadehters could be heard
After finished speaking about that, the air turned grim all of a sudden……and he continued
[Okay, I can see now after talking to youWhat Kasi to recruit youOf course, I will prepare a job that is proper for you]
I felt downI was having a good ti while…and it turned out ot be yet another recruitment?
[HaI don’t intend to serve anyone at the ht?]
[Eh? No……well, certainly you have a brilliantlike that, isn’t up to me to decideI’ll have to consult with my Father first]
Ares laughed as he said so
