Chapter 8: chapter 8

I am now 2 years and 1 month old.

　Sebas told me that my father had said he would hire a tutor when I turned 3.　　　

But I asked him to get him to schedule it ahead of time, and he has already hired one.

　I'm going to be a first-class big brother.

　Whether it's studying or anything else, it's always better to work hard and improve yourself the sooner the better.

What I learn from my tutor is academics.

　There are five major subjects: arithmetic, Japanese, geography, history, and politics.

　To say the least, it was a piece of cake.

It is natural for a 3 year old to study these subjects, but it seems that civilization itself is not very advanced, and the students can complete the course until they enter the school with only arithmetic and simple memorization that an elementary school student would learn.

As a former high school student, I can afford to be a good student.

　Even my tutor was surprised at my precociousness and how quickly I learned things.

I'm a child prodigy! he said to my father.

　As for magic and swordsmanship, which I was looking forward to, I started at the age of five.

I was not taught until I was five because I thought it was too dangerous.

　Well, it can't be helped that my body is not yet ready.

　Even if it is good to make an early effort, if I overworked myself and got injured, it would be a waste of time and energy.

　In my previous life, I had to miss several club competitions due to injuries, and it was a frustrating experience.

　I have to learn a lesson from that in this life.

　So far, things are going as planned for me.

　However, there was one thing in the mansion that concerned me besides Elina and myself.

　It was about Elina's nanny.

Breast milk comes out when a child is born, right?

　Elina's nanny is in the mansion all the time. ...... When is she going to see her own child?

　Wasn't there ever a child to begin with?

　I was curious, so I decided to go to Elina's room and ask her directly.

'Oh, Master Luke, are you here again to see how Elina-sama is doing?"

"Yes, I am, Arche."

　The current time is 13:00.

　This is the seventh time today that I have come to see Elina.

Since I woke up in the morning, I have visited Elina's room at least once an hour.

　Arshe, the nanny, was just breastfeeding Elina while Emma was teaching her how to take care of the baby.

'Master Luke really likes Elina, doesn't he?"

"'Well, yes, but I didn't just come to see Elina now. I came here to ask Arche something."

"You want to ask something of me?"

"Yes. Does Arche have any children?"

"...... children, huh?"

　Arsche looked a little troubled when he heard my question.

 

"There is .......one ...... boy.""

Oh, I knew it.

 

"Where are the children of yours ?"

"In the village of Cruz, where I lived."

I see. But Arshe stays at the mansion all the time, right?　Doesn't she go to see him?　I think the child would like to see Arche, too, wouldn't he?

That's ......."

　Arche looks uncomfortable answering my question.

　Emma, perhaps sensing this, answered for me.

"Luke-sama and Elina-sama are from the Crambell family. And we are the servants who live in the Crambel territory. The people of the Domain put the prosperity of the House of Crambell and the Domain above all else. Even if that means our own children."

　Something sounds difficult, but the point is .......

"So you're saying that Elina is more important than your own child and you're putting her first?　Without even going to see your own child?"

"Yes, because it is the duty of those who live in Crambell's territory."

Duty is ........ .......　

　That's...

"That's not right."

"What's so strange about it?

"That you put Elina ahead of your own child. It is true that Elina is the cutest girl in the world, but for parents, their own children come first. Even Arshe's child would want to be with her mother."

"Master Luke, ......."

　I thought Emma called my name in a whisper, and then she gently hugged me.

"Emma?"

"I am so sorry. May I just stay like this for a little bit?"

"Ummm, yes. ......"

　After about 10 seconds of hugging, Emma pulled her hand away from mine and said, "I'm so glad you feel that way."

　She continued, "That's all I need."

　How could it be enough?

Emma must have thought it was strange.

The reason why Arche seemed to have a hard time answering was because he was not really doing what her thought was the duty of a citizen.

　If that's the case.

"I' m off."

"Where are you going?"

"To my father's. I'm going to tell him that something's not right."

"Master Luke: ......"

　Emma looked like she wanted to say something, but I didn't care and left the room.

　I think she was trying to decide whether she should stop me or let me go.

If I told my father about this, she might get into trouble. No, she would definitely get into trouble.

So, from my standpoint, she should probably stop me.

　But I think she really wants me to tell him that he's wrong.
