I Was Transported to Another World, but I Negotiated and Persuaded Both the Goddess and the Demon King. C96

Chapter 96: Realizing the importance of appearance!

The next morning, I went to the lord's mansion to check on Leroy.

Even though I told the gatekeeper what happened, he wouldn't let me in.

Even when I tell people about Mike, they say it's a lie and don't take it seriously.

I have no choice but to contact Shikibu.

“Hello, what happened?”

"It's really hard to say, but the gatekeeper of the lord's mansion is suspicious of me and won't let me in..."

"That's why I told you! It's normal for villagers to dress like that! I'll be right there, so please wait there!"

"yes"

I feel like my girlfriend's mother got mad at me.

Looks are important after all, so let's go make some clothes later.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

After about 30 minutes, Shikibu came dressed in formal attire.

“I’m really sorry.”

Bend her waist at 90 degrees and apologize.

“You’re going to cause all sorts of problems, really!”

After Shikibu explained, they let me in easily.

Is it okay to dress like a villager as long as I get a pass?

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

“This morning, I woke up feeling good for the first time in a while.”

 That's probably right.

Because Nina wasn't in her room.

When I checked my status, both my HP and MP were at their maximum values.

"Takuto-sama, did you find out something?"

"Ah, it seems half the problem is solved."

“What is it?”

“Takuto, is it true!”

"Ah, I don't think the street thugs will show up tonight either."

"You'll explain later, okay?"

"Hmm, I can't do it today, but I can report by tomorrow."

"I can report today."

Shikibu laughs and threatens me.

"I'd like to report, but it's not confirmed, so please wait until tomorrow!"

Sikibu had given up, and he was forgiven tomorrow.

"I'm sorry, but I would like to speak with the lord in person."

"I don't mind. Could you please wait next to Mike and him, Shikibu-dono?"

"Yes, I understand. Shall we go, Mr. Shikibu?"

"Please excuse me."

After making sure the two were gone,

"Regarding the woman at the fountain, she said she was just looking at it yesterday, but didn't she speak to her?"

Leroy was surprised,

“Did you meet that person?”

"Ah, she was a girl with some circumstances."

"I see, I've been curious about it ever since..."

“Lord, would you like to meet that girl?”

“Yes, of course.”

He looked at me with honest eyes.

"What are you planning to do when we meet?"

``You may laugh at me, but I would like to make you my wife.''

Ah, suddenly we're getting married!

“You don’t even know what kind of girl the other person is?”

"Yes, but she was beautiful as she danced in the moonlight. And my intuition told me I wanted her to be my wife."

An unreliable sixth sense?

"Isn't the lord a nobleman? Isn't there something like marriage?"

"That's right. It's true that I'm a noble, but it might be better to call me a fallen aristocrat."

Since Leroy's family has not achieved any particular achievements, their status within the aristocracy has been lowered year by year, and now they are nobility in name only.

It seems that Leroy's father and Leroy himself did not raise their status by kicking others down, so their territories were taken away by other nobles, and they were sent to this ``Sieg'' to get rid of trouble.

Her mother fell in love with another noble when Leroy was young and was about to be usurped as her mistress, but Leroy chose her death and remained true to her love for her father.

However, it seems that the nobleman who tried to steal her had his pride hurt, and his harassment of her father increased.

Before being assigned to ``Sieg'', his father also died in an accident, so Leroy was dispatched as the lord.

His attendants are said to be Mike and a few others.

He finally said that this mansion was too big and he was in trouble.

“I see, I’m sorry for making you talk about something so painful.”

“No, it doesn’t matter.Moreover, if I meet her, I will write her a letter, so would you please give it to me?”

“Ah, if that’s what you want, it’s cheap!”

"Please wait a moment."

“You can take it slow!”

To be honest, I was jealous of Leroy's purity.

It's a power I don't have.

No matter how strong your level or skills are, that strength is probably the strength you are born with as a ``human'' person.

If I were in Leroy's position, I would definitely hold a grudge against other nobles.

I can't say for sure, but I just don't like the sounds of aristocrats and slave traders.

That won't change from now on.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

"Please"

"Ah, I did keep it. Can I ask you one last thing?"

"yes"

"What if that girl is a lowly peasant, a beast, a sick person, or a monster?"

"……I agree"

As expected, monsters will be tough.

"I'm getting married"

“Are you getting married?”

"Yes, I don't know who that person is, but for whatever reason, I want to live honestly with my feelings!"

　You're so honest.

After all, Leroy is a respected lord!

"Thank you. I'm sorry for asking such a mean question."

"No, I know you're doing this out of concern for me."

It's a smile without hesitation.

When Leroy rang the bell, Mike and Sikibu returned.

"My best wishes"

Leroy bows his head.

Before he leaves the mansion, he asks Mike if he has a pass.

Apparently there was one, so he decided to borrow one.

Now, tomorrow, I won't be stopped by the gatekeeper.
