Chapter 49 – Five Noble Titled Kakeru (1/2)
CHAPTER 49 – FIVE NOBLE TITLED KAKERU
It was on chaos from the morning that day.
And, the busiest was Miu.
「Master, a person from the Aegina Kingdom came this time」
Looking like in a hurry, Miu ran inside my room.
「Aegina Kingdom? Is it different from the Siracuza Kingdom just now?」
『Isn’t it different from its name』
Eleanor pointed that out. I asked Miu once again.
「Did you hear what that person from the Aegina Kingdom or something wants?」
「No! But they met with the person from the Siracuza Kingdom, they were somehow glaring at each other」
「Glaring……they don’t get along huh. I got it, for the meantimeーー」
「Aruji」
Nana entered this time.
「One who names themselves as the Calamba Kingdom and Comotoria Kingdom’s messenger came, what do you think?」
「Again?!」
What the heck is happening?
Siracuza, Aegina, Calamba, Comotoria.
It just means that four groups of people that name themselves as a kingdom’s messenger had come.
「It looks like they have gathered」
This time, Althea came into the room.
I didn’t give her life powers today, so she’s hiding her face with her hood.
「What do you mean they gathered?」
「You will know if you go」
「……is all of this Althea’s work?」
I heard about the Siracuza. And being told “They gathered”, I can only think that it’s like that.
「Go」
I was told with a commanding tone for some reason, I felt like I’ve been told by the class’s homeroom teacher.
It’s true that nothing would happen just thinking here.
I left the room. Althea, Nana, and Miu followed behind me.
When I came to the lobby, four middle-aged men who looks bossy, and men that looks like their subordinates were standing.
Even though it was a very wide lobby, it’s very cramped because of them, and it was somehow stifling.
It’s like a live house that was full before the start of the performance.
「Kakeru Yuuki-dono, I believe」
One of the middle-aged men said to me.
「Yeah」
「I have come with the command of the King of Aegina Kingdom, His Majesty Ion Heracles Aegina」
「Ha〜」
A somehow very exaggerating name came out.
「On the name of King Aegina, Kakeru Yuuki-dono will be bestowed the title of the Baron. Accept it gladly」
When the middle-aged man said, his subordinates came from his behind.
They held a tray, and a short sword with decorations was on it.
There’s an emblem in the middle that I’d never seen before.
Just like Helen’s fan I have placed on my waist, that’s probably the Aegina’s emblem.
Uhmm……I’ll become a Baron receiving that? Is that what it means? Thenーー.
『Wasn’t it Siracuza’s Baron』
Eleanor said. Thinking about it, that’s right.
When I heard it from Althea, it was “I took a baron from Siracuza”.
Why is it Aegina then? In the first placeーー.
「Please halt. In the name of Her Majesty the Queen, Rica Calamba, Yuuki-dono is bestowed the title of third class baron of the Calamba Kingdom」
「Can the kingdom that only has old history move back. The Comotoria Kingdom has prepared the baron title and a land for Yuuki-sama. Well now, Yuuki-sama. Please take this」
The men said one next to the other. And took out some kind of item closes in towards me to take it.
What they’re saying and doing, it’s all the same.
Coming from the King’s orders, gives me baron title, the other country should move back.
Everyone was just like that, and they even started glaring at each other.
I asked Althea.
「Is this your work」
「That’s right」
「Wasn’t it only from Siracuza」
「Siracuza is the nearest, and only had the fastest reply. I took all the noble titles that I can take from for the meantime」
「That’s why you said it as if it was an afternoon snack huh」
I let out a sigh.
Miu behind me was panicking.
「M-Master. Are you taking, all of that」
「Un? Can I take it, Althea」
「Take them」
It was teacher’s tone again.
But well, I’ll take it if I can though.
「Awawawawa, I-I had never heard of someone becoming a Baron-sama for different kingdoms at the same time」
Miu got more and more excited.
Thinking about it, that’s true. They were glaring at each other in front of me too, so there’s probably kingdoms that are their enemy.
Probably, if I receive it at the same time, isn’t it something like getting a general position or something from America and Russia.
Is it really okay with that? I thought.
And as if she had seen through that, Althea stepped forward.
「Excuse me?」
