Only I Am Immune to Magic

Episode 010. save me

“You can stay here tonight.”

Derek led Aaron to the annex where guests were staying.

There would be an announcement from the baron the next day, so it was good to dress up until then.

“Thank you. Derek Ball.”

“Of course it has to be done. I will send someone to attend soon, so please wait a moment.”

Derek smiled benevolently at Aaron, who was polite to the end, and retreated out of the annex.

“Wow, how many beds is this?”

Aaron threw off his soiled clothes and threw himself on the bed before Derek disappeared.

I really liked the feel of the soft cotton that had just been washed.

“I don’t have any sleeping pills.”

When I laid my body, which had been living on the hard wooden floor all my life, on the bed, I felt like I would lose my mind if I closed my eyes.

But I couldn’t sleep like this.

Tomorrow is the day when you will officially be released from slavery and become a son of Odd Haken.

In order not to be ignored, he had to do at least a minimal redecoration.

smart-

“young master. May I come in?”

After lying down for a while, the servants and maids Derek had mentioned came to the annex.

Aaron jumped out of bed as if he had never done that, picked up his clothes and put them on.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that half of the position in the mansion was determined by the size of the servants and maids.

No matter how thorough the crackdown is, it is impossible to stop them from swearing at nobles behind the scenes.

In particular, Aaron was a stone that rolled in from outside, so it was good that he didn’t look clumsy.

“Come in.”

“Excuse me.”

After permission was given, three or four people with various makeup tools entered the room.

They trimmed Aaron’s long hair neatly and took care of his bath, removing the traces of the mine that had been stale for decades.

“Good work.”

“Thank you, Bocchan. Then, if you need anything, call me anytime.”

Those who finished their work soon packed up the tools they had brought and went outside.

“It’s definitely getting better.”

After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, Aaron checked his body in front of the mirror.

He didn’t eat much so far, so his body was still very skinny, but thanks to his level, he gained a little bit of muscle, and his skeleton and height grew little by little.

“First of all, the first button is well worn.”

Tomorrow is the day to receive Odd Haken’s castle.

Once your name goes up in the genealogy, you can receive generous support from your family, so it was only a matter of time to grow your body.

“Ahh~ It’s been a while since I’ve stretched out and slept.”

Aaron burrowed back into the bed and closed his eyes feeling the softness.

“How do I do this?”

same time. Gymnasium in the mansion.

Gardi said while looking at the dismantled Drake.

Drake’s corpse was difficult to handle and required the help of an expert to process it properly.

Depending on who processed it, it could be a great armor or magic item, or a mediocre ornament.

“Don’t you know Tmolin’s little friends? Leave it to them.”

“You mean a dwarf? If you leave it to them, they’ll probably eat half of it.”

Gardi’s eyebrows twitched at the baron’s words.

Dwarves know how great their technology is, so if you entrust the request, they will definitely ask for the price.

The reason why he built the wall for the baron was only because of a business relationship, and it was never out of kindness or loyalty.

“It is a law that the more valuable the jewel, the more skilled artisans should entrust it.”

“That is true, but… … .”

“Send a message to the mountain range as soon as the sun rises tomorrow.”

“All right.”

Gardi nodded without further pouting.

“Today, go in and rest. I will take care of the rest.”

“I don’t know if I can rest even if I go in. In my mind, I want to spend the night here.”

“yes? Wherever you feel uncomfortable… … . ah.”

Gardi, who tilted his head at the baron’s answer, soon let out a sigh.

Besides Drake’s corpse, the baron had one more job to deal with.

It might be easier to clean the corpse yourself than that.

“If you explain the situation well, he will understand.”

“I hope so too. Then I’ll go first… … .”

“Baron!”

As the baron was about to turn around, a shrill voice came from the other side of the gymnasium.

“The thing to come has come.”

The Baron muttered, closing his eyes.

The person who trotted along with the maid was none other than Odd Haken’s hostess, Janice.

Judging by his light clothes, it seemed that he had been waiting inside and couldn’t overcome his impatience, so he came out himself.

“Then I will go back.”

Gardi, who foresaw what was to come, left a farewell message.

The baron hastily grabbed him by the shoulder as he was about to leave.

“Stay here.”

“yes?”

“Save me.”

“How can I save the baron?”

“Isn’t it 2 to 1 if you go. It’s hard for me alone.”

“No, it’s not an enemy that you have to defeat… … .”

“It is an order.”

“… … .”

Gardi looked at the baron with an absurd expression.

In the meantime, Zenith, who arrived in front of the two, lit a double wick and put her hand on her waist.

It was a deviant behavior when she, who values noble etiquette, is very angry.

“Welcome, ma’am.”

“Why did you come out when it’s cold? I was about to go in anyway.”

Gardi and the baron gave each other a word.

Janice stared at the baron, ignoring Gardi.

“Is it true that a slave came into our family today?”

“Hmm, I haven’t heard anything. Who brought in slaves before I came?”

“no! I mean the slave you brought yourself.”

“I have never brought a slave.”

“I don’t have anything! I saw that lowly bastard enter the annex with my own eyes!”

Janice could not hold back her anger and pointed to the annex.

The baron suppressed the anger rising up inside him and spoke calmly.

“The one in the annex is my son. Not a slave.”

“My son? Ha, you say that outright.”

“Haven’t I told you before? He had a son before he married you. When I brought it up, you said you would definitely understand. I said I wouldn’t mind it because it was before marriage. Am I wrong?”

“Yeah… … .”

Janice stopped talking and rubbed her throbbing temples.

It was true that I had such a conversation with the baron a long time ago.

I heard that his mother died at a young age, so I thought he must have died as well, so I didn’t think it was a big deal, but I never dreamed that it would come back like this.

“That’s a story when it has nothing to do with our family.”

“He’s a child with my blood, how could he not be related to our family?”

“her… … . Then, did you bring that slave with the intention of adding it to the genealogy?”

“exactly.”

“Are you serious?”

Janice let out a laugh.

He was so angry that he even lost the energy to resent him.

“Why don’t you just kill our son and declare that slave as your successor?”

“… … ma’am. Do it in moderation.”

The baron’s unchanging face finally twisted.

No matter how angry he was, the remark he just made went way beyond the line.

However, Zenith, whose reason had already been blown away, had no intention of stopping here.

“Who is talking now? How could our family have such a lowly slave… … .”

“That child saved my life.”

The baron cut off his wife. Then, he pointed to the by-products of Drake lined up in the gymnasium.

“I got this Drake purely because of him. I wouldn’t be standing here without him.”

“Now even lies… … .”

“It is true, madam.”

Just as Zenith was about to retaliate, Gardi stood up for the baron.

He explained in detail Aaron’s performance in Mineville.

“It looks like the two of you have even met. The effort is really virtual. I really have to make my lies plausible.”

Janice, who had been listening to the story in silence, said with a mocking expression.

To say that he didn’t die even after he knocked down Drake with a single spear and the breath poured over his head.

Who would believe such an absurd statement?

“It must be hard to believe. But it’s all true. The child is blessed by Oberyn. If raised well, he will surely become a great knight.”

“That’s Okay. I know the baron’s feelings well, so please stop.”

Janice waved her hand as if she didn’t want to hear anything more.

Then the baron’s distorted face softened a little.

“Thank you for your understanding. ma’am.”

“No matter what anyone says, I am the hostess of Odd Haken. If I don’t understand, who will? I just need some time to organize my thoughts.”

“okay. I know very well that it takes time.”

“I’m glad you know. I will go to my father and cool my head.”

“… … You mean going to the Count?”

“yes. Maybe it’s better to cool off than here. ‘Our’ son is also there. Would you object to this too?”

I raised my chin, emphasizing that Janice was our son.

Odd Haken’s son, Zeke, went to his mother’s family for a better education.

The baron wanted to leave his son at the mansion and teach him, but Zenith was so angry that he sent him away to his mother’s house, believing that a count’s education would be better than a baron’s.

What she just said was tantamount to announcing that she would inform her mother’s family about this.

The baron, who clearly knew him, nodded with a stiff face.

“Why would I have any objection? Be careful.”

“yes.”

Janice replied briefly as if she had waited, then turned her back without saying goodbye.

“Would it be okay?”

Looking at his wife’s back, Gardi asked.

The baron shook his head as if it was nothing.

“What else could not be okay? Don’t worry too much about it because your wife has a complicated head too. I’ll just go in and rest.”

“yes. Take a look.”

“Oh.”

The baron, who was heading towards the main building, looked back at Gardi as if he remembered something.

“Thank you for your help.”

“… … hahahaha.”

Gardi smiled wryly at the baron who was making fun of him.

next day. As planned, the baron announced that Aaron was his son and put his name in the genealogy.

The baron people couldn’t hide their surprise at that unconventional announcement.

The baron, who had never caused a scandal since his marriage, had a past.

No matter how much it was before marriage, it was enough to be a story.

“Brother Aaron, you said you were a slave before you came here?”

“I heard you did?”

“It’s okay. It’s okay.”

“Then should we have slaves?”

“What do you bring? Technically speaking, they are lower than us.”

“Well, even being a bastard is a miracle just coming this far.”

the next morning. The maids in charge of Aaron walked down the aisle chatting.

Most of the people employed by the aristocratic families were commoners.

From birth, he had a much higher status than slaves of low blood.

No matter how young they became, they were reluctant to serve slaves who were treated like luggage.

“Why did the madam go to her parents’ house? He left because he didn’t want to see that cloth.”

“So that is it. You’d rather accept me as the baron’s daughter than accept me as a slave.”

“Oh, there’s nothing he can’t say.”

The maids did not stop even in front of Aaron’s visit.

jump-

It was then.

The door that had been tightly closed opened violently, revealing someone.

It was Aron, a man with shiny silver hair neatly cut.

“young master. How were you last night?”

The maid with the highest rank naturally smiled and asked.

The image of him diligently pounding the cubic a little while ago had disappeared.

“Say it again.”

Aaron asked in a gloomy voice.
