SETTING

Volume 4 Chapter 5 Patrol Fleet

"Patrol fleet?"

I was chatting with Wallace in the academy's cafeteria.

This was my third year, and I had already grown accustomed to living here.

"Yes, I was talking to my brother who had left the palace like I had. He had chosen to live as a soldier, but was denied enlistment into the one of the main fleets and was sent to a patrol one instead."

It was strange to think that the imperial army would refuse a member of the royal family, but I guess that had to do with his own rank as a royal. Just like how Wallace used to be, he was probably another prince with no backing or right to inherit the throne.

Most of the main fleets wouldn't accept such a person because of the various troubles that followed them.

"If he became the commander of a patrol fleet, he should've been given at the very least a few hundred ships to control. That doesn't sound so bad."

When I said so, Wallace had a very subtle change to his expression,

"The problem is that he was given the garbage that everyone else threw away. My brother [Cedric] was sent a tiny fleet of thirty outdated ships. He seems to have fallen into depression after being a.s.signed to an area that was practically empty s.p.a.ce."

"Isn't it fine if he just stays...o...b..ard? It sounds like easy work where he can just relax."

"Inside of a narrow and outdated ship, there's no way he could relax. He's told me that he doesn't know what he's working for anymore, and that all the soldiers a.s.signed to him were rotten."

Was this part of the military's biased relocation of human resources?

If I were to compare them to a company… would they be like a group of useless employees?

It looks like the number of useless patrol fleets were increasing, where the soldiers stationed there grew complacent.

…were they idiots?

"How'd this situation even come to be?"

Wallace explained to me the reason while poking his mushy meal with a fork.

"The higher-ups in the military wanted a place to dump their rivals. This isn't just any normal relegation, it was a move made to actively break their spirits. Other than that– they just wanted a place they could push off the n.o.bility."

"The n.o.bles?"

"There are a lot of people among them who like to take advantage of their peerage. In the army, it'd be fatal to have such people rise to power, so they a.s.sign them as commanders of patrol fleets. Thanks to that, the number of them has explosively increased, and it's expensive to reorganise them, so they're pretty much left alone."

"I thought it would've been harder to keep up their maintenance."

"If you hand over supplies, things will somehow work out in the practically empty environment. Besides, they still need to have something stationed there. It definitely wouldn't be funny to have pirates set up a base in empty s.p.a.ce."

So in short, a lot of complicated situations stacked together to create the current situation full of useless expenditures?

…no, this isn't that bad actually.

"That's an interesting story."

"You're interested in them? But Liam, you're practically guaranteed to be a.s.signed to the main army."

"I don't really want to though."

Just thinking about them gave me headaches.

'Come join our fleet!'– and so forth. They've been badgering me from all over to recruit me.

There were many different places to be a.s.signed in the main army, some of which were along the borders, while others were based in rural areas.

For the imperial capital, there was always at least three fleets based there to defend it, where the elites even among the main army were gathered.

The imperial guards had invited me to join them, but they didn't interest me at all.

I don't like being given orders from others, so wouldn't being the commander of a patrol fleet be the best?

"I've decided! I want a patrol fleet!"

"…Liam, are you an idiot?"

"How so?"

"Did you not listen to me at all?! My brother was forced into that position and now he's crying out that he'd rather die. I was stunned when I learned about his a.s.signment. All of his ships are outdated, and the environment he's based in is bad, do you really want to spend four years in such a place?"

Wallace didn't know anything.

It might be that way for others, but I was rich.

Naturally, I was going to invest in my fleet myself.

"I can just buy the ships and other things to fix those. If I prepare a luxury pa.s.senger ship, then it'll practically turn into a fun vacation."

"…the military would never fund such a thing."

"Of course they wouldn't, I'd supply the funding myself."

"Huh?"

"I'll provide the money to buy the ships."

"No but… if you're the only one using a luxury ship, then you'll antagonise your surroundings, Liam."

"Don't worry about it. All I need to do is replace their ships as well. Though, I guess it'd be too late for that if I start right after I'm a.s.signed… Okay then, let's prepare a fleet suitable for myself immediately."

"…huh? You're really going through with this?"

"Of course I am. Tia will be graduating from the academy next year, I'll get her to prepare my fleet."

I'll even make a bribe to guarantee I get the destination I want.

My a.s.signment will be chosen by myself!

To disregard the army's invitations, and prepare my own fleet– this is exactly how an evil lord should act!

To think that not even the military could stand against the power of money– my heart was full.

"I've met many kinds of n.o.bles in my life, but I've never seen anyone like you, Liam."

"So I'm the first in the Empire? That's fine. Let's give Tia my orders as soon as possible."

◇ ◇ ◇

The communication room.

The person Tia was talking to was her former boss, the prime minister.

"…many aristocrats prepare their own ships. Some of them even prepare entire patrol fleets, but this is the first time for a n.o.ble like the Count to appear."

It seems not even the prime minister could hide his surprise.

Tia spoke with confidence to his reaction,

"We've fixed one of the Empire's problems, so I don't think it's a bad thing."

"There's the demerit in how the fleet will belong to the Count, and not the Empire. But to replace the outdated equipment and retrain the useless human resources of a patrol fleet… the costs will no doubt be immense."

"Lord Liam ordered me 'Prepare a fleet suitable for myself'. He provided the budget for it himself, so there's no problem there."

Liam told her to prepare a patrol fleet for him, but to Tia, only a fleet the size of a regular one would be worthy of him.

Since they had the funds to afford it, she decided to gather the useless patrol fleets together and combine them to the size of a normal one.

She was currently asking for permission from the prime minister.

The higher-ups of the military weren't likely to give her it because they didn't understand how beneficial this would be for the Empire's financial situation.

So she decided to contact the prime minister who was aware of this instead.

"…when you leave for the army, the fleet will still be working in the Empire. For that reason, we'll prepare an officer to act as commander at least in name."

"'In name?' Are you worried about leaving Lord Liam in command?"

"He's too young, and you are as well. It won't be enough to give you the rank, even if you're officially a.s.signed. If we forcibly promote you two, then the military will undoubtedly start to complain. Don't worry, he might be the commander on paper, but you'll still be the ones in power."

Tia fell into thought.

(The returns don't justify these conditions, but everything he said was true…)

"…understood."

"This truly was a wonderful proposal. The Empire can solve two of its biggest problems in an instant."

When the call finished, Tia could feel herself growing excited.

"Right now the fleet isn't suitable for Lord Liam– in just two years, I need to gather the useless patrol fleets and retrain all their personnel. I also need to prepare the new ships… I don't know if I'll be able to make it in time."

Although Tia often acts pathetically, her abilities were real.

"A fleet suitable for Lord Liam… I will give my all for this a.s.signment."

Yes, she was ecstatically squirming with her hands on her cheeks… but her ability was real.

◇ ◇ ◇

While Liam and others were starting to move at the academy.

There was also movement in the Berkley family.

"d.a.m.n it!"

Cashmiro was frustrated with the reports that were coming in one after another.

They've been in an economic war with Liam for a few years now, but things weren't looking good.

The reason was clear, it was simply because it still hadn't finished.

"What is he?! What the h.e.l.l is that brat?!"

Planetary development equipment– to produce elixirs for this war, Cashmiro had used these devices to destroy multiple worlds already.

Despite this, he had heard rumours that Liam just recently made heavy investments into the military.

Even though he was currently in conflict with the Berkley family, he still had the financial leeway to make these purchases.

"How many elixirs have we already released for this?! To be able to keep up with us even then… no, does he have one as well?"

It was almost unthinkable for Liam to have one of the devices.

But if he did, then it was highly likely that he recovered the planetary development device that Derrick had lost.

If he had that, then he certainly could've kept up against the family.

…no, even if he did, Cashmiro was certain that he wouldn't have been able to use the device correctly. It just looked like some kind of weird sphere afterall.

Even if he somehow managed to make it work, since the Berkley family had multiple of such devices, they ultimately had the advantage.

The problem was they didn't know how much longer this situation would last until they were crushed.

This was an opponent they shouldn't have chosen to fight economically.

"We'll definitely be able to crush him given the time. We'll win, but at what cost?"

The waste of time, resources, and finances was nothing to laugh at.

Seeing that, Cashmiro decided he needed to end this futile fight already.

–they couldn't afford to fight with Liam any longer.

"I'm done with the tricks. If we don't move to crush him seriously, he'll finish us off first."

The young and talented Liam.

His remaining lifespan was different from Cashmiro, and there was no doubt he'd grow into a troublesome existence if they left him alone.

Could his sons beat Liam? –it was impossible no matter how Cashmiro thought about it, so he made a call.

"Yes, father?"

"–get in contact with the army and gather professionals for the war against Liam."

"War?! This is too early, father!"

"You idiot! If we don't crush him now, the Berkley family will be destroyed by him! Just shut up and follow my orders! Gather soldiers who can win against the Banfield house! Anyone is fine, as long as they can help beat down that brat– then I'll welcome them with open arms!"

Cashmiro was seriously afraid of Liam.

The guide was silently watching over this development.

He noticed Cashmiro's strong interest in Liam and approached him.

The guide started applauding.

"You're wonderful, Cashmiro. You've accurately judged what kind of a threat Liam posed."

More than anything else, the guide loved Cashmiro's superior military force that Liam's couldn't compare to.

He had more than a hundred thousand ships, and that wasn't even counting his allied n.o.bles and pirates under his command.

Gathered together it was a force in the hundreds of thousands.

On the other hand, Liam's army didn't even reach fifty thousand ships, even is he was increasing his forces at the moment.

This was because he was already satisfied with the thirty thousand strong fleet he's had until now.

He had grown arrogant after his consecutive wins, so this was the time to crush him.

"Liam… your carelessness will be your downfall."

On top of that, Liam would be practically fighting alone due to his lack of allies.

"Cashmiro– you can win this. I will do my best to support you as well."

Black smoke was emitted from the guide, which then clung to Cashmiro's body.

Looking at that figure, the guide spread his arms in delight.

"From now on, all those who wish to defeat Liam will naturally gather around you! The darkness of the Empire will rally at your call to kill him! Consolidate them together as your power!"

He had manipulated things to easily a.s.semble Liam's enemies.

This will further increase Cashmiro's allies, further widening their difference in strength.

Before the quant.i.ty that even the quality of Liam's forces couldn't handle, the guide relished in the ideas of what kind of agonising death was in store for him.

"I've even prepared the seeds of revenge as fail safes. I don't know if Yasushi will make it in time though– because I also have that woman ready."

A woman who burned to have revenge on Liam– [Eulisia Morisille].

"One day, I'll put her by Liam's side. Having him get stabbed by that woman is another interesting way to finish this."

Regardless of the situation, Liam will definitely die.

The guide felt an inexplicable sense of happiness.

"I understand– no, I know that I've finally driven Liam to a corner!"

A powerful enemy was about to appear before Liam.

SETTING

Volume 4 Chapter 6 Rosetta's Training

The Palace of the Imperial Capital.

Rosetta, who had come to train here as an apprentice, looked up at the sky from the hallway's window.

The sky of the imperial capital was just an artificial image, but it was still clear and beautiful.

"…are you doing alright, Darling?"

Serena had chosen her original workplace as Rosetta's destination for training.

If she completed her education here, no one would be able to belittle her.

Many aristocratic daughters had come here as apprentices, so many of the maids were actually of n.o.ble origin.

The plan was for her to spend at least three years here.

Since Serena told her that her bridal training should be done in the imperial capital, Rosetta was unable to return to the Banfield house's territory for a while.

That's when some girls dressed in maid attire approached her.

"Oh, what's the heiress of the Claudia house doing in a place like this?"

The leader of the group was the daughter of a Marquis house.

While the children in her entourage were both daughters of Viscount houses.

However, even if these girls would've been treated as princesses back in their home territories, they were only maids here.

"I'm currently on break."

As a graduate from elementary school, the sight of Rosetta- who had the appearance of a highschool student, getting into a quarrel with girls who looked like junior-high students, was quite the spectacle to see.

"–aren't you embarra.s.sed to be starting your training at your age?"

When the leader of the girls said so, the two lackeys at her sides laughed in agreement.

Of the children who were currently undergoing training, most of them had just recently come of age.

It was rare to see someone start at Rosetta's age.

"There are various circ.u.mstances behind this, if you could overlook this, I'd really appreciate it."

"What's with that att.i.tude? Don't act like you have dignity, you should just keep your head down like you used to."

The leader was probably there when Rosetta was humiliated at one of the palace's parties.

She wanted to ridicule her like she did back then.

"…currently, I might be apprenticing as a maid, but I'm still Lord Liam's fiancée. I can't allow myself to take such a shameful att.i.tude anymore."

At that response, the leader of the children made a dissatisfied expression.

"Liam, huh? He seems to have become famous recently, but isn't he just a n.o.bleman from the sticks? Sounds like he's a suitable partner for someone like you. Oh, but I know the truth, isn't he currently fighting with the Berkley family right now?"

The Pirate n.o.bles– he was currently in conflict with a very dangerous group among the aristocracy.

"So what?"

"Do you really think he can win against the Berkley family? You're probably in danger right now as well."

Done with this conversation, Rosetta tried to leave when the three girls burst into laughter.

"So you're going to run away? As expected of the infamous Claudia Ducal household. Because you have no pride, you can't even stand up for yourself."

After having her n.o.ble pride mocked, Rosetta bit her lip in frustration.

(Bear with it. I can't lose myself here for Darling's sake.)

As Rosetta tried to return to work, a silver-haired woman approached her.

It was Serena's granddaughter [Cattleya].

Although she was wearing a stylish maid outfit, her actual position was that of one that governed over a large number of servants.

She was also Rosetta's educator while she was here for training.

"So it's you three again?"

"Lady Cattleya."

As Rosetta bowed, Cattleya sent a judgemental look towards the children who had caused trouble the previous day as well, scattering them.

"And here I thought they were learning to not brandish their status here."

After being pampered like princesses growing up, they still hadn't discarded the habits they had developed in their homes.

They seemed to misunderstand that the power of their parent's houses was their own.

"I'll try to stop them if I see it happening– but Rosetta, this is something you need to solve yourself."

"Huh?"

After hearing Cattleya's warning, Rosetta couldn't help but feel confused.

"Try to think about how to deal with this yourself. If you can't even solve something of this level, only hardships will be in store for you in the future. –Moreover, try to do this as a maid."

Contemplating Cattleya's words, Rosetta began mulling over how to deal with the girls.

(…is this a test?)

There were actually several ways to silence them.

By borrowing Liam's power, she could solve this situation in an instant, while even getting a bit of revenge in.

But would a solution like this really be suitable for a d.u.c.h.ess?

(I can't borrow Darling's strength for this. If I did that, then I'd be no different from them. There's also no point in attacking a child who hasn't even graduated from the elementary school.)

A high-school student taking revenge on junior-highschool students– even if there was a reason behind it, this wasn't an option considering how it'd look to the public.

If Rosetta did this, Liam's reputation would be damaged.

(In that case, the method I choose needs to be as fair and honourable as Darling is! I need to do this in a way everyone will acknowledge as a maid!)

The positive Rosetta decided to give it her all as a servant.

◇ ◇ ◇

The Banfield Estate.

In the mansion where both Liam and Rosetta were gone, Brian was lonely.

"Hah~"

The number of sighs he made increased throughout his break.

Serena couldn't help but be surprised at his condition.

"That's quite the awful expression you're making there."

"…this place feels empty now that the energetic Lady Rosetta is gone, and Lord Liam is still away at the academy as well. All the 'fire' in the mansion seems to have disappeared."

"But the quiet is nice in its own way. Once things get busy, you'll end up missing these days, you know?"

Brian was worried about Rosetta.

He also worried about Liam, but he knew that he could overcome any obstacle on his own.

But Rosetta was different.

"I wonder if Lady Rosetta is okay?"

"I left her in the care of my granddaughter, [Cattleya], so she should be fine."

Catteya– Serena's granddaughter was a very good child.

Serena knew Rosetta would be safe if she was watching over her.

"The most we have to worry about is if she's being bullied by the other apprentices. The girls who study there sometimes go to extreme lengths."

As someone who has served the Banfield house for many years, Brian has also seen the bitter fights involving women.

That's why he was worried.

"…this is also something that Lady Rosetta needs to learn about. This can be considered part of her training as well."

The palace was Serena's former workplace.

She's seen how those girls fought, so she knew that those with malicious intent would approach Rosetta.

However, as the future d.u.c.h.ess, it'd be troubling if Rosetta was crushed by something at that level.

"Oh, if Cattleya's there, then I can have peace of mind."

"But there are other things to worry about as well. Our conflict with the Berkley family seems to have settled down recently, so I can't help but feel like something terrible is about it happen."

Even though they were having an economic war just a little while ago, the Berkley family had suddenly gone silent.

Rather than relief, this brought a strange sense of dread.

"Maybe they gave up?"

When Brian said so, Serena a.s.suredly denied it, saying, "that's impossible".

"It looks like they're preparing for war with great vigor. Lord Liam is building up his forces as well. Both sides are preparing to end this all at once."

"Really?! Did Lord Liam increase his increase his forces because he already predicted this development happening?! This Brian here thought Lord Liam just wanted to expand his military on a whim!"

Seeing Brian's feelings about Liam from the side, Serena made a serious expression.

"…there's no way that'd be the case."

Serena muttered a retort under her breath.

(Was it just his intuition that made him build up his forces before the Berkley family got serious? Or was he expecting all this to happen? …as always, that child is competent to a frightening degree.)

For Rosetta to become a presence of support for such a Liam, Serena couldn't help but think there'd be quite the difficult future ahead of her.

◇ ◇ ◇

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Tia, who had just graduated from the academy as the valedictorian, was currently a lieutenant.

Normally, one would be doing ch.o.r.es in various departments during their training period.

However, Tia was specially exempted from that and was now reorganising the patrol fleets.

Inside an office, she was busy setting up a fleet suitable for Liam.

"The forty-ninth to the eighty-ninth patrol fleets seem to have a difference in the number of ships and personnel a.s.signed to them."

According to the doc.u.ment, each fleet should have about thirty vessels.

But in reality, each one only had about ten.

The number of human resources allocated to them was also small.

"Aren't these ships already obsolete? We need to dismantle and recycle them… and it doesn't look like their staff has much skill or motivation either."

In the preliminary survey, more than sixty percent of the soldiers wanted to leave the army.

Vocational training would need to be supplied, after which they could rea.s.sign them somewhere else.

However, giving soldiers vocational training and arranging new positions for them wasn't free.

They needed a budget.

"The imperial army isn't willing to reorganise them, the funds they gave aren't nearly enough."

The idea behind this was that it'd be better to just prepare a new fleet instead of fixing the obsolete ones.

There were various reasons, but the main one seemed to be how there was a strong inclination to send as much support to the front lines as possible.

Sending support to the patrol fleets full of low-morale, low-skill, and the oldest equipment instead of the front-lines would be a considerable waste.

First off all was the re-education and re-training necessary.

To convert them into something useful, an enormous amount of time and money would be required to prepare the courses they need.

And even then, it'd cost even more time and money to equip the soldiers with new equipment afterwards.

In addition to that, when Tia finally started the restructuring the fleet under Liam's orders, the low quality of the soldiers had surpa.s.sed her expectations, giving her a headache.

But–

Tia had all of Liam's personal funds at her disposal.

The amount would still have surplus even if a regular fleet was formed.

Tia smiled.

"I now see why Lord Liam entrusted such a huge budget for me, but why would he go so far?"

Liam probably only gave this much because he wanted a fleet that he could laze around in.

That was the truth, but–

Tia, who worshiped Liam, read too deeply into it after considering the amount of funds and the current situation.

"If he was going to send this much, then it would've been better if he directly used it on the Banfield fleet– no, wait! I see! So that's what he's planning! As expected of Lord Liam!"

If he invested into the imperial army, only the Empire would benefit in the end.

For that reason, usually one would invest in their own territory instead.

However, Tia thought 'Lord Liam must have thought of something!' and began thinking of things from that viewpoint.

And after pondering it, there was a justifiable reason.

"I understand Lord Liam's aims! This is a strategy to cut down the Berkley family's future forces while increasing his influence in the imperial army!"

For patrol fleets, it wasn't an uncommon story to hear of them deserting their positions to become pirates.

In other words, they were likely to become the future forces of the Berkley family, who were known as the Pirate n.o.bles.

To reduce such pirates from appearing, they were going to reform them into a normal fleet in the imperial army.

And no matter who denied it, a fleet formed by Liam would undoubtedly be connected to him.

The military would hold Liam in a favourable light, and the newly organised fleet would become a trump-card against the Berkley family.

"The Banfield house's forces alone can only be increased to a certain limit, so he ingeniously decided to conscript the imperial army itself for our cause!"

Tia read too deeply into a simple budget.

"With funds on this level, we can secure a significant number of allies while maintaining Lord Liam's military influence for the future! –I can't let him down here!"

Tia's motivation was further increased.

Deeply impressed by Liam's deep insight into future events, Tia became more and more enamoured with him.

"To eradicate the garbage known as the Pirate n.o.bles, while purging the corruption within the Empire. Lord Liam truly is the embodiment of virtue."

With cheeks burning red with excitement, Tia spent a minute happily thinking about Liam before returning back to work.

SETTING

Volume 4 Chapter 7 Rosetta's Growth

–Recently, the military seems to be in a frenzy.

The planet the academy was on had re-education and re-training facilities, which have been in full operation for the last few years now.

And it wasn't just here either, apparently the majority of the Empire's facilities were in a similar state.

Rumours have been spreading among the cadets that they were preparing for some great strategy or something.

Currently, I was a senior cadet in my sixth year at the academy.

Since she graduated earlier, I gave Tia permission to use my personal funds to form a patrol fleet, but I couldn't help but worry if it was going well or not.

To be honest, I didn't really know how much money I sent over because there were too many digits in my bank account, so I was actually looking forward to seeing what kind of fleet was made.

I didn't really have many opportunities to use it, so I ended up just throwing my money out there on a whim because I've acc.u.mulated quite a bit of it.

"…it's already recovered."

A percentage of the tax revenue was always redirected to my personal funds, but I always felt dizzy looking at it because it was there was so much.

Because there was always more capital gained than used, I didn't really hold it at much value at all.

Recently, as an evil lord, I couldn't help but think that it was useless to ruminate over how to use money.

As I thought that, Wallace called out to me in a carefree manner.

"Liam, give me some pocket money."

"Didn't I just give you some last week?"

"It was all spent when I went out with an undercla.s.smen and covered him."

I felt my temper rise when I looked at Wallace, who was proudly boasting about he played around outside.

This guy broke curfew and went out drinking with his juniors.

–with my money!

"Why do I have to prepare funds for you to play around with?"

"Because you're my patron of cour– w-wait, that was just a joke, please don't raise your fist! P-PLEASE STOOOPPP!!!"

After giving Wallace a good whack, he was grasping at his head with both of his hands in pain.

"You didn't have to get so violent about it…"

"Seeing that you're the only one having fun annoys me."

"Then you should join us, Liam."

"If I could, I would've already!"

–I wanted to play around as well, but I was still traumatised after knowing what happened to Peter.

What if I got the STD that made male genitalia explode?

It was a venereal disease of a fantasy universe, but it seriously scared me.

Even evil lords would be afraid of such an illness.

"…I'm scared that my manhood might explode."

Wallace burst into laughter after I revealed my true feelings.

"Is that why both you and Kurt never 'played around' during our days at the elementary school? Most STDs can be detected beforehand, the ones that create explosions and the like are only the worst-case scenarios."

"But that means it's still possible!"

By the way, two cadets have exploded during my six years here at the academy.

Should I be relieved that it's only been two, or be scared that there's already been two?

But either way, if there was even the slightest possibility of it happening, I'd prioritise my safety and avoid playing around.

However, as an evil lord, I still wanted to do so.

"You don't need to go all the way, you can still have fun just by drinking with the girls."

"…I guess that's true."

Honestly, I didn't think the bars were that interesting, but was wasting money that way that bad of an option?

I'd be misusing the taxes the people of my territory sweated to make for me.

–that sounded pretty great actually.

That was exactly what an evil lord should be like.

However, I seriously wasn't interested at all.

As I troubled myself over this, Wallace asked me what I was planning to do after I graduated.

"By the way, where do you plan to go for your training after leaving the academy, Liam?"

"The imperial capital. Though apparently even high-n.o.bles like myself have to do odd-jobs over there."

If you were born as a high-n.o.ble, it was only natural to go to the most popular place for your training destination.

The same goes for Wallace, who was part of the royal family.

"What about me?"

"You're coming with me."

"Is it that? Did you just choose that place because deciding would be too troublesome?"

"…something like that."

After hearing that he'd be returning back to the imperial capital, Wallace seemed like he was looking forward to it.

That's when he reminded me of Kurt, who wasn't here with us.

"Are you going to visit Kurt at the university?"

"Maybe during one of the holidays, wouldn't he be busy otherwise?"

"No, it'd be better if you called out to him as soon as possible. He was really crying when he found out he'd be separated from you, Liam."

When Wallace told me that, I recalled how Kurt was in tears during the elementary school's graduation ceremony.

Wasn't he overreacting a bit, though?

"You really think he cares that much?"

"Yes, he does. Kurt would probably fall into depression if he found out you were there, and you didn't reach out to him. Oh, come to think of it, wasn't Rosetta at the imperial capital as well?"

When Rosetta's name came up, I suddenly felt my myself panic a little.

I didn't really know how I should treat her.

"Would it be better if I called out to her as well?"

"…what are you worried about? She's your fiancée."

Despite Wallace saying that, I couldn't help but feel anxious about my future life in the imperial capital.

◇ ◇ ◇

Meanwhile, at that time.

In the palace of the imperial capital, Rosetta was teaching the girls who had come there for their apprenticeships as their senior.

She was currently educating them on what mentality was expected of them while they were here.

"It's prohibited to take domineering att.i.tudes over your peers using the strength of your parent's households. Because you're here to train yourselves as apprentices, there will be no mercy shown if you break this rule. "

The girls tensely responded to Rosetta, whose bearing had become far more dignified compared to when she first arrived.

"Yes!"

"–a promising response. I'll do my best to teach you as much as possible as well."

In order for one to be entrusted with teaching the other apprentices, one had to be highly evaluated in the workplace.

Since one could only watch over them until your training was finished, they wouldn't be a.s.signed to you otherwise.

The girls who used to ridicule Rosetta now seemed to be regretting it.

After disbanding the juniors, Cattleya approached in their place.

With the frustrating girls now gone, she gave Rosetta her praise.

"When you first arrived here, I didn't think you would make it, but I guess I was wrong."

When Cattleya said so, Rosetta bowed while expressing her thanks.

"This was all because of your guidance, Lady Cattleya."

"I might've helped, this was all because of your efforts. Be more proud of yourself."

She worked harder than anyone else during her training, and now she was a maid recognised by everyone around her.

In the first place, Rosetta was used to working hard in harsh environments.

There's no way her spirit would break at something of this level.

Cattleya looked towards the direction the girls fled.

"Now if only they'd follow in your footsteps."

Although they generally behaved themselves during their apprenticeship, their evaluations weren't that high.

Rosetta didn't comment.

Seeing that, Cattleya smiled.

"…you've done well. For the rest of the year, I'll leave the junior's guidance to you. Show them how it's done, Rosetta."

"Yes."

"Oh yes, I also have a message from my grandmother. It seems Count Banfield will be a.s.signed to the imperial capital for his military training next year."

"Darling will be?! Ah, no. Please excuse me."

Cattleya laughed in response, giggling all the while.

"It looks like you have a good relationship. I heard that he'll be spending two years here, but in that time, men can easily be roped in by their surroundings to 'play around' and do other bad things. –Rosetta, you should keep an eye on him."

"Lord Liam isn't like tha–"

"Men who never do so tend to build up stress. Even serious people can make mistakes, so hold onto his reins tightly, but don't tighten your grip too much."

Considering Liam's position, it wouldn't be strange for him to have several mistresses.

Or rather, when you think about the Banfield houses current situation, it's actually troubling that he didn't.

If Liam died, the candidates to become his heir wouldn't be his direct line, but one of his relatives– or maybe even one of his predecessors.

It was a possibility that Amagi and Brian wanted to avoid at all costs.

Serena was of the same opinion, saying that the Banfield house should be succeeded by Liam's descendants alone.

"…understood."

"You're making an expression that says you're not convinced. I understand your feelings, but it's normal for one to only go for love after they've fulfilled their duties."

Many n.o.ble daughters freely pursued romance after creating an heir.

In truth, after Liam's mother and grandmother had their kids, they separately had families with their favourite partners on the side.

But Rosetta loved Liam, stories about what she could do after they had a child were irrelevant.

"Lord Liam is the only one for me."

"…I'm actually quite envious you can say that so confidently."

After Cattleya said so, she left to return to her work.

◇ ◇ ◇

A luxury hotel in the imperial capital.

It was currently undergoing a sudden renovation.

Thomas was watching over it while the building manager explained the changes to the interior.

"We're working as fast as we can, but I don't think we'll be in time for next year."

Although it was a historic luxury hotel in the imperial capital, it had fallen into ruin in recent years for unknown reasons.

"As long as it's only the parts that Lord Liam won't see that fall behind, everything should still be okay. More importantly, how's the employees' education coming?"

When Thomas first found this hotel, he was suspicious over how such an old thing could still be operating.

"We're reaching out to our former workers, but we still don't have enough experienced personnel."

"Hurry up and gather some then. After Lord Liam graduates from the academy, this will become his temporary base of operations."

The manager was serious.

"Yes!"

From his strong response, one could easily feel his enthusiasm to not miss out on this opportunity.

This hotel wasn't in disarray because not enough people stayed there.

The problem was that when they drove out a drunk and violent customer before, the man turned out to be an aristocrat– and because they had quite the high standing, they ended up pressuring them as revenge.

If one turned a n.o.ble into their enemy, it was only natural for their business to collapse, no matter how popular the hotel was.

But conversely, as long as they had an aristocrat on their side, they could easily bounce back.

The manager double-checked with Thomas.

"By the way, for those who'll be a.s.signed to Lord Liam himself, is it really okay to select them by ability? Wouldn't one's appearance usually be used for the selection criteria?"

If he had a certain preference, they do all in their power to find someone who matched it.

When the manager said so, Thomas shook his head.

"Lord Liam doesn't even lay his hands on his mansion's servants. He's a really strict person, so rather than someone who matches his tastes or preferences, he'd have a better evaluation of you if you placed capable personnel that can show results at his side."

To Thomas, Liam was the most virtuous of n.o.bles.

The manager lowered his head.

"…I've seen many different aristocrats here in the imperial capital, but just from what I've heard, Lord Liam already sounds far better than all of them."

"He might stand out a bit because of how brutal he speaks, but he's actually quite benevolent. His enemies are shown no mercy, but he's highly tolerant of others. Manager, any extra treatment is unnecessary. As long as you do your job properly, Lord Liam will surely have a good opinion of you."

The manager straightened his back and raised his face.

"Understood."

Preparations were being made in the imperial capital to receive Liam.

While Thomas was feeling relief at the fact that he was able to secure Liam's residence, one of his subordinates rushed towards him.

"President!"

"What's wrong?"

"T-t-the merchants of the imperial capital want to meet with you, president!"

"…what? Who exactly?"

It was quite unusual for a merchant of the imperial capital to want to meet with Thomas, who usually did business outside the region.

Normally Thomas would be the one requesting the meetings.

"It's Elliot, the president of the Clave Company, and Lady Patrice, an executive of the Newlands Company."

Thomas' eyes widened."Both of them are big shots."

The Clave Company wasn't just any group of imperial merchants.

They were one of the biggest companies in the Empire.

And while the Newlands Company had their head office in the imperial capital, they were a large company who did their business all across the country.

Both of them were on a completely different level compared to Thomas' Henfrey Company.

For the president and executive of companies that did business all across the Empire to want to meet with the owner of a small business that only had a few stores across the frontier was unprecedented.

The manager seemed disturbed by this as well.

Both of them were practically celebrities.

"What's their goal here?"

Because it was impossible for him to refuse their visit, Thomas immediately decided to meet with them.

SETTING

Volume 4 Chapter 8 Training Period

I was a.s.signed to the logistics department in the imperial capital for my training.

After graduating from the military academy with honours, I was promoted to a lieutenant– but to be clear, this wasn't where the elite's normally went.

It wasn't the department where the best of the best were trained, but I was satisfied.

Why?

–because just by doing paperwork here, I was guaranteed a promotion to captain after only a year.

And by the end of my second year, my status would be elevated again to a major.

n.o.bles could easily advance their careers by safely doing deskwork in the back.

Truly wonderful.

And this isn't even considering how when I'm given my official a.s.signment, I'll be able to spend my four years of conscription relaxing in the fleet Tia prepared for me.

This training was the turning point, because after this all that was left was my student-life at the university and my work as an official that came with it.

Without even trying, aristocrats could be a.s.signed to the elite courses and pull ahead in life, happily watching those struggling below them from safe distances.

This was exactly what an evil lord should be like.

Life in the barracks was mandatory during the training period, but it felt more like I was staying in a hotel while vacationing in the capital.

After working at regular times everyday, I returned to the barracks and enjoyed some personal time after five.

This truly was wonderful compared to the elites who were working themselves to death in busy departments.

While I was working, Wallace called out to me.

"Hey Liam, there seems to be a visitor who stormed into the building screaming."

"Screaming? Was there a mistake made somewhere?"

But who made the mistake?

I left a lot of things to the AIs, but they wouldn't make any blunders.

Some of the work did require humans to process, so the error probably came from myself.

"No, they're here to lodge a complaint about the supplies you've arranged, Liam."

"…what?"

◇ ◇ ◇

The logistic departments tend to be looked down upon because they didn't operate on the front lines.

Their use of AIs to reduce the workload is another reason why they're held in contempt.

However, work efficiency greatly decreases if only humans are employed.

When you thought about how the work done back here was used to help support the front lines, social norms be d.a.m.ned, they had to rely on them.

"Now what's the meaning behind a half-a.s.sed person like you– who relies on AIs do to his work, rejecting my application form?!"

It was just past noon when the colonel burst into the building and started causing a commotion.

A brigadier general was his opponent, but the colonel was still taking a crude att.i.tude towards him because of his n.o.ble birth.

"M-my apologies. Colonel, we'll remedy this soon, so please calm down."

Because of their use of AIs to process their work, even the higher-ups in the logistics department were made light of.

The Empire thought it was bad to overly rely on AIs, so this division wasn't really one you'd choose if you wanted a fast-track through the ranks.

"Bring me the idiot who designated the supplies for my ship! I'll set him straight myself!"

The brigadier general hurriedly tried to stop the colonel who was brandishing his whip while grinning.

"Colonel, that's no good. If you do that then–"

"I'm saying I'll personally straighten out the coward who refuses to fight on the front lines. Are you telling me you'd rather take his place?"

The colonel was a person who enjoyed hara.s.sing the weak.

The brigadier general dropped his shoulders.

"You can't say I didn't warn you."

Giving up, the brigadier general then called out, "Someone get the lieutenant," the colonel swinging the whip in his hands in response, releasing a loud 'crack'.

"Oh? It was some greenhorn brat that's still in the middle of their training? I'll show him how things work in the imperial army."

Seeing the colonel denounce the youth, the brigadier general looked away.

"…if you really can subdue him, then I hope you'll teach me your methods as well."

"Did you say something?"

"No, it's nothing."

The sound of the door being knocked could be heard

"Get in already!"

Opening the door and entering the room– it was Liam who appeared.

"So you're the one responsible for designating supplies for my ship?! Do you know what you did?!"

Towards the big att.i.tude the colonel took towards him, Liam snorted.

"Who the h.e.l.l are you?"

"W-what?! Can't you even recognise my rank from the badge?!"

"It just says you're a patrol fleet colonel, that doesn't mean anything to me. Brigadier general, I'm actually really busy right now. I don't want you to call me for things on this level."

To Liam's comment, the brigadier general said, "I didn't want to either, but the colonel here apparently wants to teach you a lesson."

The colour of Liam's eyes changed when he heard that.

"…who is he planning to teach?"

"You, brat! What the h.e.l.l have you been learning at the academy?! Don't think you're going home today!"

While the colonel was thinking about how he was going to have fun torturing Liam– he was suddenly blown away.

"Bweh-?!"

Slamming into the wall, he made an expression that said he didn't even know what just happened, and then he heard Liam's voice.

"Brigadier general, can you call this guy's superiors for me?"

"I-it's not like I can't, but–"

"This guy's application form said to prepare expensive liquors and snacks. I'm sure his boss would love to hear all about that. He's just a no-name soldier from the patrol fleets, who the h.e.l.l is he to question my decisions?"

To the smiling Liam, the brigadier general replied, "Understood" before making the call to the colonel's superior.

The person he called was a major general who was in charge of a patrol fleet charged with protecting the s.p.a.ce around the imperial capital.

When the call went through, he was clearly grumpy.

"What is it?"

"Hey, major general. You're subordinate picked a fight with me. Will you take responsibility for this as his boss?"

"Wha-?! My lord?!"

The major general was also a n.o.bleman, but his status was inferior to Liam, who had succeeded as the head of his house.

But even putting that aside, Liam was infamous for being in open-conflict with the Berkley family.

The major general was clearly distressed.

"M-my subordinate has been rude towards you. Tell him to immediately withdraw."

"I should tell him? No, you're going to come here and bring him back yourself. Are you seriously trying to give me orders? Well haven't you grown full of yourself. Do you really think you can look down on me just because of your military cla.s.s?"

"P-please excuse me. I'll pick him up soon. No, I'll leave to pick him up right now."

"Be quick about it. And while I'm at it, the application form you've sent goes too far, even for a joke. Don't put in requests that waste my time. Do you understand me?"

"N-no, I understand."

"…it sounds like you have a grievance. What is it then? Spit it out."

"I-it's really nothing, my lord."

Distracting him from his work, having to deal with these situations wasted Liam's time.

He hated things like this.

"Good, I like smart people like you. Now then, get over here and pick up your incompetant subordinate as soon as possible."

"…understood."

When the major general ended the call, the colonel was trembling at the revelation that Liam was an active Count with considerable power.

"Now then, I believe you said you were going to teach me a lesson? My body has been feeling dull recently from all this desk work, so won't you help me get some exercise?"

The colonel immediately sprung up and saluted.

"Please forgive me for all of my transgressions, my lord!"

He immediately acknowledged the other party as his superior– but it was too late.

Liam put his hand on the colonel's shoulder.

"I don't hate att.i.tudes like yours, but I'm not the kind of man who forgives others that easily. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Liam then seized the trembling colonel by his collar and dragged him out of the room.

The brigadier general silently watched this all happen from the side.

"Haa… it looks like bringing him in was the right answer."

–he was pleased with how smoothly the department's work had gotten ever since Liam's arrival.

There were many soldiers who looked down on the logistics department and request various things.

For that reason, he wanted to bring in some powerful n.o.bles to his division.

But if he brought in a corrupt n.o.ble like someone from the Berkley family, then he'd only be creating more troubles for himself.

However, a serious n.o.ble like Liam would never tolerate anything like fraud.

"I hope this will reduce the number of unreasonable demands a little."

The brigadier general was happy to have roped Liam in, but he couldn't understand why he'd choose his department of all things.

◇ ◇ ◇

The front lines.

Marie was currently training there as an infantry.

"You minced meat b.i.t.c.h, I'll never forgive you…"

Dressed in a powered-suit, she jumped off a transport aircraft while muttering curses against Tia.

She didn't use a parachute, but a barrier suddenly appeared around her before she landed, absorbing the impact before shattering.

In the middle of a jungle, Marie took in her surroundings.

"Marie, is it safe?"

"No problems here."

"Acknowledged. In that case, proceed to infiltrate the enemy facilities and rescue the hostages. It's a difficult task, but I know that you can do it."

Being forced to advance on a hostile base all on her on while rescuing a hostage, Marie started to complain in her head.

(I'll definitely return and take that minced meat b.i.t.c.h's head.)

Because of Tia moving things behind the scenes, she was a.s.signed to the special forces.

Tia said, "There's no place for you by Lord Liam's side." and laughed at her.

Quickly making her way through the jungle, Marie promptly executed a lookout with her knife.

Her boss, who was watching over the situation praised her finesse through the comms.

"Your skills are amazing. They remind me of my former subordinates."

"You've had others on my level? Where and when was this?"

Marie was interested after hearing that there were other humans as strong as her.

"They've probably changed their name by now though, because unlike yourself, they worked as a spy. They were unbelievably strong in battle, and could accomplish any mission we sent their way."

"You've caught my interest, do go on."

"I can't tell you because of military regulations, but she was an excellent subordinate."

When the enemy base came into view, ended the call and began her infiltration.

"Now then, I want to return to Lord Liam's side as soon as possible, so shouldn't I finish this quickly?"

On that day– one criminal organisation was wiped from existence.

◇ ◇ ◇

Moderate exercise feels good.

"And I even managed to finish my work on time as well."

While thinking about everything that happened today, Wallace made a tired expression before speaking,

"You shouldn't fuss over the time so much. Do you understand? Look, there's others still working even now."

There were senior officers who couldn't complete their work on time and had to stay.

But that had nothing to do with me.

Because I did finish.

"There's no value in working overtime."

"Is that why you never help others?"

Sometimes there were idiots who couldn't even do their jobs, and came crying to me for help, but I always pushed them away, saying that these were things they needed to figure out themselves.

"What's the point in doing so?"

In my previous life, I worked my hardest for my company, my subordinates, and my juniors– I really did my best, but it was all for nought in the end.

When you finish your work, you should be allowed to go home.

There should be no problems as long as you work hard enough to justify your salary.

Society and the companies may ask you for more, but abstract ideas like 'building good faith' meant nothing to me.

Compared to the effort you had to put in for such things, the few words of "thanks" they gave you wasn't sufficient enough of a reward to justify it.

That's why I only work for what they pay me for.

When I left the office building, a big limousine was waiting there in front of us.

"It's beautiful. Did someone important drop by?"

You could easily tell the limousine was a luxury vehicle.

The logistics department wasn't a popular division, so there weren't many aristocrats here.

When I thought so, Wallace noticed something,

"Wait, aren't they here to pick you up, Liam?"

"…what?"

As I approached, it's door burst open and Rosetta dressed in plain clothes jumped out of it.

"Darling!"

"Rosetta?!"

I actually wanted to dodge, but if I did it poorly, Rosetta might've hurt herself, so I ended up catching her in my arms.

"W-what are you doing here?"

"Why don't you try resting at the hotel for today? That's where I'm staying now that my training is finished. I wanted to spend some time with you, so I came to pick you up."

Hearing that, Wallace immediately boarded the limousine.

"Then don't mind if I do. I'll take a free ride anytime. –woah, Liam! The insides of this thing are amazing! There's even alcohol and snacks here!"

Seeing Wallace was already inside and drinking, I tried to make one last vain effort to stop him.

"Hey, wait! I thought we were already had plans to go drinking later!"

"It should be fine to go to the hotel instead. I mean, we can't really play around much before payday, and this is all free!"

This b.a.s.t.a.r.d!

Pulling away from me slightly, Rosetta looked up at me with moist eyes.

"Darling, did you already have plans? I-I guess that makes sense. I know how important it is to keep up your workplace relationships."

Seeing how sad Rosetta looked, I felt an inexplicable sense of guilt wash over me.

In the first place, I was just planning to go with Wallace to a bar for drinks, and nothing more.

"N-no, we just had plans to go drinking together, that's all."

"Really?! Then, let's go to the hotel! There's so many restaurants in the vicinity that you'll never grow bored! I'll have them prepare all the drinks you could ever want, Darling."

"I-I see."

I used to think that she was a woman of steel– an ice queen with an unbreakable heart, but this was before she became my fiancée.

Now she calls me darling while fawning over me.

I was actually hoping for Rosetta to hate me more, since I can't really mess with her like this.

"…so Rosetta, what have you been doing during your stay at the hotel?"

"Right now I'm just learning a bunch of things. Currently I'm studying about the imperial capital's culture along with the daughters of our neighboring territories' lords. It's a lot of fun."

Is it like a young wife attending a cooking cla.s.s?

I'm glad that it looks like she's enjoying herself… not that I was worried about her or anything.

Rosetta's expression suddenly became serious.

"Oh yes, Darling… there's actually some guests over there that want to see you."

"Some guests?"

More people want to meet with me? Hopefully it's not like the colonel who visited around noon.
