I Shall Master This Family's

Chapter 10

"What's? Why did you come here?"

From where Belsach lay, he jumped up and shouted.

One roaring sound.

It seems quite surprising, but I have no intention of answering.

"........Florentia?"

If the room is not quiet, I hear a sound so soft that I will not hear it and miss it.

It was Larane, who was looking at me with only her head around Belsach.

"A 'ah ."

I felt embarrassed and paused for a moment without even realizing it.

It's been a while since I saw Larane.

Larane, a flower so fragile and delicate that it seems hard to believe she came from the same ship as Belsach.

Once she reached adulthood, she married a man with a large age difference through the empress' arrangement.

People say it is a successful marriage business.

Although the noble was old, he was a hero who fought valiantly in war, and he would soon inherit his father's title.

No one knows.

How quickly a flower that fell alone on the land of her husband far from Lombardy, which was right next to the Emperor's command, would wither.

It turned out that the husband was not a family-bound enough person to take care of his young wife, and the house servants ignored Larane as a pretext for this.

When Larane asks for help from her family, it happens after Viese has a business with her son-in-law.

The answer that came back from his trusted parents just said, 'Do better!.'

So Larane dried up and immediately returned to the ground.

Too young, at a young age.

Larane, who cried after the wedding, said that she did not want to leave Lombardy, was the last picture I had ever seen.

"Are you taking classes now?"

Even though she was five years older than me, the image of tightly holding a large doll was the image of a young woman from a noble family who grew up just by looking at beautiful things.

"Yes, I came to take classes starting today."

I nodded and answered Larane's question.

Belsach groaned as if he was upset that I answered Larane's question, and ignored his question.

"Lied!"

He stepped up and acted as if he would do anything now, but all he did was go and bark like a dog.

"Liar! Something like you taking a class?"

This makes it clear.

Belsach is still a stupid kid.

Do I have to wait for a mouth that only learns bad things from adults, to say a few more words?

"What am I like?"

I asked as if it was provocative.

"Something like you! Low..."

"Should I call grandpa?"

When the word 'grandfather' appeared, Belsach hardened and kept his mouth shut.

"Last time, grandfather told you not to look at me anymore and say that I was low. Are you breaking it now?"

I heard it from my father.

Grandfather called Belsach separately and scolded him.

"Belsch,"

With a smiling face, I deliberately approached Belsach.

"There are so many books here, right?"

"Eh...."

Belsach sepertinya ketakutan dengan buku-buku yang berserakan di sana-sini

Yes, it is a book that will become a weapon when it reaches my hands.

I did the last blow to Belsach.

"Should I go and talk to Grandpa now?"

"No...."

The man who retreated and frowned behind the stumbling motion finally turned around and went back to where he had been lying before.

Oh, of course, he couldn't beat me, so he didn't forget to kick an innocent doll nearby.

Yeah, where are you going with that personality?

Still, I sighed. It can be said that I was lucky to have beaten the puppy I was trying to handle.

It was Gilliu and Mayron sitting side by side by the window.

Both are 11 years old this year and are the sons of Aunt Shananet, my father's eldest son and sister.

"Yes?"

Why are you looking at me like that?

That's shameful.

In fact, from my cousin, both are the least informed.

Because they are identical twins, they always fall into their own world, so they are not interested in the world around them.

If my cousin other than Larane ignores me, these children are completely indifferent.

This was a level of indifference as far as seeing me being bullied and crying and walking on the side without changing their expression.

In addition, there have been no meetings at all since Shananet's divorce and the two went with their father to the Schults family.

He no longer used the surname Lombardy, and even became Gilliu Schults and Mayron Schults.

His handsome appearance and knight career seemed to make him quite famous in the social world, but it was a different world story for me who was busy working.

"Florentia."

The two spoke at the same time, as if they had caught their breath earlier.

"You said you hit Belsach?"

"And you said you won?"

But something is a bit strange.

The faces of Gilliu and Mayron, who had always been fat, seemed to be alive.

Moreover, the two smiled, albeit faintly.

What are these people, it's scary.

I sat on the big sofa by the window, across from Belsach, trying to back off.

Most of them are young people who use this room, and I love the fact that it is a low-rise chair that does not need to be climbed.

At that moment, Gilliu spoke to me, tapping on the window sill.

"Come and sit down."

"What?"

"Let's sit with us."

The golden hair of the two men shone brighter in the sunlight from outside.

I looked back at them for a moment and said.

"If you want to sit with me, you two come here."

I could see the golden eyes of the two people moving at the same time.

"Don't tell me to come and go."

I said so and turned my head again.

I don't remember them being mean to me, but that's because I was in a bad mood, I felt like I was trying to get someone out with one word.

The Lombardy boys are very proud.

So, Gilliu and Mayron will soon become as angry as Belsach...

Dumps.

The sofa I was sitting on shook a little.

"What, what is it?"

Suddenly, two people came to this side and sat down as I said.

It was on both sides of me too.

"If you want to sit down with Florentia, come here?"

"So you're here, Tia."

"Yes, yeah, call it Tia."

"Yes, let's do it." 1

They like it with laughter after exchanging words like a comic story.

I don't know, their mental world.

I shrugged my shoulders.

I wanted to sit together, but I couldn't ask to sit anywhere else.

That's when I gave up on the road.

The door opened and Clerivan came in.

"Everything is here. Then I'll start class."

Huh huh? Like these?

I looked around because I was nervous.

However, everyone except me had no signs of nervousness.

But no books, no pens?

Back then, the paper and stationery placed on one side of the room caught my attention.

Does that mean taking it if necessary?

However, the other cousins only saw Clerivan with their bare hands.

Let's take a look.

I hugged the pillow and looked at Clerivan who was standing in front of the board.

"From today, we will learn about trade, one of the important businesses of the Lombardy family."

Oh, that's an advertisement.

Attractively.

That's how full-scale classes start.

And I'm still nervous.

"......Trading means "

Behind Clerivan's quiet voice, there was a sound left behind like background music.

"Creungpuhe. Oh yeah.."

It was the sound of Belsach snoring scattered on the sofa.

Not too loud, but not likely to be heard by Clerivan.

I wanted to wake her up at a glance, but I continued the class as if I had never seen her again.

At that moment, I felt a little understood.

Clerivan had no intention of forcing a man who had not focused on such a class in the first place.

Let him sleep without waking him.

But it will be in the report after class.

I felt Mayron, who was sitting next to me, lose interest in class and open the book next to me.

Just then, I could see Clerivan taking a quick glance at her.

You see everything.

I immediately corrected my posture.

And I started to show 'I listen hard!' with my whole body.

I open my eyes, and sometimes my head nods

At first, it was acting, but after that, I took classes with high concentration without even realizing it.

It might be a boring lecture for a young child, but it was an interesting class to get a feel for Clerivan's deep knowledge of the trade.

"Okay, then today's class is pretty good."

I forgot about the passage of time and concentrated on it, so it was over.

Feeling a little regretful, the sleeping Belsach woke up with his eyes open and rubbed his saliva.

You hear a voice that the class ends up like a ghost.

"I have a special homework today."

"Homework?"

Larane, who had just woken up with the doll, asked back in surprise.

As if homework was not common, Belsach and the twins were shocked.

"Last time until the next class. Housework...."

Clerivan, who was smiling strangely, came out with something behind the board.

Thud.

When he placed it on the floor, a rather heavy voice sounded.

"wood?"

What Clerivan took out was a thick log with the top and bottom cut off.

Originally, it was a fairly large tree, but its circumference was as tall as an adult, and it was actually a log, reaching Clerivan's knees.

"It is a tree that grows quickly, hard, and lighter than others, so it is widely used on the continent for various purposes."

"How did you do it?"

Belsach asked frankly.

But Belsach is not the only one who is surprised by Clerivan's sudden behavior.

Both Larane and the twins were staring at the log in front of them.

Maybe my facial expression is not much different either.

Clerivan, who was looking at us, smiled strangely and said in a very refreshing manner.

"You can sell this until the next class."
