Talk

I take a sigh and look at the young woman in front of me. This young woman is the former princess Elizabeth Ainsworth von Vulux. While she can still be considered a princess, I have the feeling that the idiot king already disowned her.

However, there is something that still bothers me.

"What is she doing here?"

I look at the Queen Dowager, who is sipping the tea Richard brewed for us. I know that Queen Dowager has a special relationship with Eli, but there is no reason she came here. Especially coming here without a bodyguard.

Well, a bodyguard like a knight. She has a bodyguard, but I cannot see her bodyguard as they are a bunch of assassins and trained spies. If not for my wards around the mansion, I will not know their location without using a spell.

There are at least five assassins on the tree in front of me, and they are holding a bow, ready to fire it in case I do anything to the Queen Dowager.

"My~ I come here to accompany my granddaughter."

"... To the north?"

"Yup~."

"Haaaaa…."

I release a tired sigh and massage my neck.

"You know what? Do whatever you want. Your son already gives me enough headaches as it is. I don't want to think about anything right now."

"You know~ You will get trouble if you say something bad to someone, son~."

"Will you be mad at me?"

"Nope! I already know that my son is an oaf."

"Heh."

Oaf is an understatement. He is a retarded. What kind of king is he who stole the glory of others? What kind of king would betray his vassal honor? I already hear about doing a rebellion among the Northern Lord, and I really want to do it myself just to kill that retard king.

Sadly, if I do that, the other will crown me as their king. I don't want to be a king! There is already too much paperwork as it is, and when I become a king? I will die drowned by the paperwork!

However, if the others decide to do that, I will go with it.

But I prefer to become an independent kingdom rather than take over the Vulux Kingdom. I don't want to make the southern my own vassal. They are too retarded to be trusted as a vassal.

"We will begin our journey to the north tomorrow morning."

"Why in a hurry?"

"The new land your son gave to me is the reason why."

"May I ask why?"

"Haaaa… Your son gives us the land, yes. However, he did not give us anything else. I know the condition of those lands. Especially with the Famine that is happening across the kingdom, I need to feed them. I also need to do some bandit cleaning."

"... You don't want to increase the tax they need to pay? You don't want to make them work for you without getting paid?"

"What?!? Why would I do that?!? They are my people. As long as they are loyal to me, I will give my all to make them safe, happy, and content. I'm a lord, not a tyrant."

I can see her smile at what I said. I don't know what she is thinking, but I will never do that. A happy worker is a hard-working worker, after all. Not only that, by doing so, I will also make them loyal to me. By giving them a happy life, I will get myself a person ready to throw their lives for my family and me.

I know it sounds manipulative, but this is the reality of this era of time.

"Good. Now, I know you will not treat my granddaughter as if she is a slave."

"Why do you think I will do that?!? We, the northerner, hate all kinds of slavery. The only reason why the other lord did not hate me is that they know that it was your son's order that I need to take her as a mistress."

"I know. Speaking of mistress. What will you do with my granddaughter?"

"I don't know. It is up to her. I will not force her into anything. As long as her loyalty is to the Lionheart family, I will let her do what she wants."

"Really?"

"Yes. The only thing I need her to do is to learn how to wield a weapon. All of the ladies in the north need to know how to defend themselves."

"Fair enough."

The Queen Dowager then looks at Eli, who nods her head and says.

"I will do my best."

I nod at her determination and say.

"Good. I will also teach you how to wield your magic."

"Eh?"

I look at Eli, who has a surprised expression before saying.

"You don't know about it? You have the potential to become a magician. I can feel mana inside your body."

"I have mana?"

"Yes. You don't know?"

"No. I thought I had Physical Energy."

"No. You don't. While it is small, almost unnoticeable, it is there."

"I see. Thank you. Thank you very much. I know that I'm an annoying person to you, but I will be in your care from now on."

"While I cannot accept you just yet, I hope in the future; we will love each other. Even if that day did not come, I hope we can be a friend instead of an enemy."

I smile kindly at her. She is a strong young woman. Feeding the people in the city, coming up with a new invention, and trying her best to change the kingdom. That is all the thing she tries to do, but because of this time of era where women cannot have big power other than becoming a queen, she still tries her best.

|Elizabeth Ainsworth von Lionheart POV|

Get yourself together, Eli! But I must admit that Isaac's smile makes my body warm-up. No! Get yourself together!

"Now, how about we eat something? I will cook you some food."

Eh? He can cook? I never thought a lord would want to cook something.

"Really?!? Big brother will cook?!? Yay!"

"Yup. What do you want me to cook, Gin Gin?"

"Cookies!"

"Sure. I will bake some cookies."

"Yay~."

Isaac gets up from the couch and walks toward the kitchen. I follow him to the kitchen with the others, who also follow him to the kitchen.

~One hour later~

This is the most fulfilling meal I ever had. All the meals I eat in the palace will always come cold because they need to be tested for poison and any other substances. Not only that, but the cooking method of the cooked in the palace is also rather simple and even sometimes it was rather bland unlike the food in Japan.

"I don't know you can cook this good, Lord Lionheart."

"Heh. Call me Isaac. As for the food, well I have a weird hobby of cooking. From time to time, I cooked for my family."

"Then they are fortunate."

Before I could say anything, Lady Eveline, who have a conversation with my mother, beat me to it by saying.

"That we are. He is a blessing to the Lionheart family."

"Fufufufu. I really hope my son is like your son, Lady Lionheart."

"Thank you."

I ignore my grandma, who begins gossiping with Lady Eveline while eating the cookies in front of them and looks at Isaac before saying.

"Isaac… There is something I want to say to you."

"Hmmm? Of course. Feel free to tell me anything."

"Mmmm. Can we go to a more private room? Lady Lucina can also come if she wants."

"Sure. Follow me to my office."

I begin to follow him to his office. The thing I want to tell Isaac is my most protected secret. The secret of me being a reincarnated person. I don't know if he believes me or thinks of me as a crazy person, but I want him to trust me.

If by telling him my deepest secret is the start, then I don't mind.

"Here we are. This is my office. So, what do you want to tell us?"

I take a deep breath and say.

"Isaac, I'm a reincarnated person."
