Chapter 145
149 Fee and Cousin Holidays
In the morning when the gentle morning sun lit up, Couinu was reading a book in his study because he woke up early.
“Boy, breakfast is ready.”
Called to Cassandra from across the door, Couinu gives her face. Cassandra is an old woman who has served me as a servant in this house for years.
Answer her call and walk out the door to the table.
They still call me Boy, but Couinu’s position was already something I should have called my husband. I don’t feel uncomfortable because that’s what they call me from my childhood. I’m still young and immature.
When I went to the table, potato soup and bread were prepared for the table.
“Good morning, sir.”
Benno, standing beside the table, greets me. He is the butler of the house of Couinu and also the husband of Cassandra. An old man with a white beard.
“Good morning, Mr. Benno”
Couinu greeted Benno back at the table.
Take a meal asking Benno what the territory is like.
The title of the house of Couinu is the Viscount, but its territory is very small. It’s a country where few people live mostly in forests and mountains. The town is only as good as Mitsuzu.
Previously in sword training, Benno replaced Couinu, who now vacated his territory for a long time as an apprentice knight, and he managed that territory for me. Even when it comes to management, it is a small, sparsely populated land, so there is little tax revenue, and I only get what I pay to the state.
Couinu’s father had built his livelihood by investing and other property he had inherited as a nobleman, but Couinu was aware that such a thing was impossible for him. That’s why I made up my mind to be a knight.
At the end of the meal, he said, “Do you have plans for today?” asked Benno. “I’m going to visit my father and mother’s grave,” Couinu replied.
Ask Cassandra to prepare the flowers and leave the mansion.
Through the trees, he climbed for about 30 minutes on a hilltop, onto a scenic high ground. The wasted weeds around me are nicely mowed and turned into a beautiful green carpet. I’m sure Cassandra and the others were doing it for me.
There’s also a grave there.
Parents with whom Couinu died as a child.
My father was the son of one of the historical aristocrats there in this country, and my mother was a woman from Indiania, a far eastern country. Cousin’s brown skin is the influence of my mother’s blood muscles.
I was so sad when I was a close couple, traveled well with my family, and died in a carriage accident, but now even with that thought, my grief had healed to the point where I could look back and feel happy in front of my grave like this.
Couinu knelt down in front of the tomb and prayed.
(Father, mother. I’ve become an apprentice knight and I’m doing well. I’ve had a lot of incidents, but now I’m getting along with everyone in my quarters and trying to be a good knight while I train and play with them. I’m a little bad at studying, but my swordsmanship scores are good. I’m going to be a fine knight who can work harder and be proud of his father and mother)
Couinu took a breath there and dyed his cheeks a little red.
(Then you might have had someone you liked)
I think of the child in my thinly open eyes.
Then I closed my eyes again and prayed to the two people in heaven for a while.
After his visit to the tomb, Kuinu was thinking of going back to his master as well.
(I just have to spare some time even if I’m here…)
Let’s get ready when we get back to the mansion and even train the sword at the master’s. In the eyes of the cooinu, who reached the mansion with that in mind, there is a figure of a man nestled in front of an open gate.
He is checking around the gate a little while carrying his larger luggage on his small back and rocking his golden sara hair.
(What…?
Yes, while I was surprised in my heart, she shrugged.
“Um, I wonder if there’s a ring or something. I wonder if I can come in.”
A familiar voice. Looks familiar.
As I was stunned by the appearance, fuzzy coincidence, her gaze turned this way. She pounces this one – after a little glance, the look changes happily.
“Ah! Cooinu!
“What… what… Heath. Why?”
Heath looked a little out of her mind at Cooyn’s inquiry.
“Oh, you’ve been hanging out!
Then I grin with a full smile.
“It’s a little late, but I’ve come to see you!
