Vol 15 Chapter 285 (1/2)
… The Walt House manor
There was a ray hair all swept to the back He traced his er as he s the letter on a splendid desk in his office, he turned a sharp glare at the crumpled report beside it
Turning his eye to his retainer 【Beil Randbergh】 who had coht, the head of the Walt House 【Maizel Walt】 spoke in a fed-up tone
“I heard the eastern front had faced defeat, but the scale was beyondto Celes and Claire in Centralle, only a lucky feere able to run away… that disgrace of the Walt House sure got us well!”
To Maizel’s loathsome expression, Beil’s face remained serious
“Isn’t that fine? The fact only serves to prove even the Walt House’s rejects possess powers far over the rest”
Maizel leaned his back against his chair,an displeased expression
“Don’t be foolish When Celes becarace go to get in the Walt House’s way? He should be eliminated with all due haste It see on a reason to march on Rhuvenns”
Beil objected to that
“Maizel-sa forward to your arrival You shouldn’t keep her waiting”
Maizel laughed His shly filled with self-confidence
“It’s so forward to my return But my pride as a father won’t allow me to return to Centralle without a present Tell Celes I’ll be a little late”
Learning there would be no change in Maizel’s verdict, Beil replied
“Your departures to the front lines have increased in number And as winter sets in, there is a li anyone, it will have to be in the ten thousand units”
Maizel, full of confidence
“Porter, was it? We have the technology Celes brought back to the Walt House froistical support is also in order Have our vassals and their vassals mobilize as well There are any nu to see Celes’ face of delight!”
In regards to Maizel, Beil gave his opinion
“Then that would likely fall short of fifty thousand It is believed a considerable number lie in Rhuvenns It’s even quite a trial to have spies infiltrate theer?”
Maizel stroked his ertip
“I’m sure he used the Walt House’s heirloom That’s all there is to it But Skills are irrelevant to less beforeem but it’s a precious heirlooave it to that thing Good grief, how troublesome it must have been to my father as well”
When Maizel said that, Beil agreed
“Before Brod-sao, so perhaps he had lost himself in sorrows”
Once the Seventh, Brod ca
“Seeing that harsh father of ht When he toldto say”
After a while of silence between the two, Maizel finally opened his mouth
“… Hasten the preparations Even if taking that thing’s head is impossible, I want to deliver Celes news of victory”
Through thick and thin, there was a difference in Maizel’s treatment of Lyle and Celes…

“My father? No, um… I-I don’t really remember”
I gave a vague response, but in all actuality, I had lost a e on
The head of the House that had cliest…
And right now, it wasCeles’ enemies
Within the Jewel
The round table between us, I sat across frorandfather Maybe the Third didn’t want to be a hindrance, as he had locked himself in his own room of memories
The Third looked a little… no considerably conflicted
『… Lyle, you’re s I can say』
I really didn’t rements that remained, he truly was kind before my isolation He had a harshness as well, but the kindness was definitely there
Thinking of his attitude since my alienation, I could see it well
『Maizel never regarded the Jewel highly Do you knohy?』
I tilted em became a Jewel after it came into my hands Even so, the Skills the ancestors left behind all displayed performance you could call extraordinary
There’s no way ated and found out old Zell had it? If he was up to it, he had any means to search for it
“Coe He wasn’t particular about heirlooreat pride in the Walt House”
The Walt House’s pride… because of it, he hated his own grandfather, Fiennes the Sixth for sticking his hands into unwholesome trades
Then why did my father never hold the Jewel?
『Maizel doesn’t need the Jewel No, to be reater than an ornament to him Because Maizel cannot use the Jewel’s Skills』
“Can’t use? Did my father have some sort of problem? It didn’t look that way to me”
Just like the ancestors, my father was a splendid s up, he had his heart set on being a good lord to the people
The Seventh began talking about my father
『No, he was talented And it’s precisely his talent that em Maizel… has a Skill to obstruct the use of Skills And his own Skill is so strong, he can’t even ic Tools』
Hearing that, I finally understood why my father wasn’t particular about the Jewel

… Lorphys’ Palace
With one of the Valkyries stationed in the country before her, Annerinne body stopped just short of sitting in the throne
“W-what did you just say?”
The other leader were gathered for the audience, and surrounding the maid-clothed Valkyries, they received the report of the unit they sent to Rhuvenns
“As I was saying, an engagement has been tied between h, and your country’s vice-captain of the knights Alette Baillet It is a splendid result for both countries Baldoir-sa, there is no doubt of his promotion, and at present, while they are apart in status, that relation will eventually flip over…”
“Not that! Why!? Why did Alette go off and getme!? It’s only natural to talk to me beforehand, is it not!?”
Those around were saying sis
“C-certainly The vice-captain’s e was beyond everyone’s expectations”
“But it is to our benefit”
