: Adviser Sable (2)
" Why is Tolke coming out of this place?"
Jamie looked at Tolke's corpse and asked Sable for an explanation. No matter how much you think about it, it makes no sense to see Tolke coming out of the garden pond.
Although it lives in fresh water, the lake is not large, and Tolke's habitat was in rivers in the first place.
"Since the lake is connected to the Bills River, monsters sometimes appear."
Yes?
" You may not believe it, but this lake was created for that purpose from the beginning. Do you think it's the Marquis's hobby?
I do not understand.
"So, to put it simply ."
To summarize:
The Marquis enjoyed hunting underwater monsters twice a year, and there were quite a few ferocious underwater monsters in the Bills River crossing Apton.
So, the water of the Bills River was drawn to the front yard of the Marquis, and a lake was created.
"Of course, we are doing our best to defend ourselves. The entrance to the river is magically treated, so monsters cannot approach it."
"But how about today?"
"There are times when magic weakens. Apparently today was such a day."
Jamie chuckled and thought of the Marquis Bell.
I didn't know that the old man had such a hobby.
I don't know if I know the hobbies of nobles.
"Let's go back."
"This is true. I'm sorry that this happened on the first meeting. Get some rest, Master Jamie."
Jamie went back to her room with Sable off her.

Hearing what had happened last night, the Marquis ran to Jamie for a month, as if he was very surprised.
"Are you okay? Are there any injuries?"
"Thanks to Sable, it's all right."
"I am so glad."
Hearing that there were no injuries, the Marquis sighed in relief.
"Anyway, that's weird. It's been a while since you checked out the defense, so why did Tolke come in?
He said that his daughter would return after 7 years, so he rechecked all the places of the marquis.
Because they are children, if there is an accident, even a big one will happen. Then Tolke appeared from the lake.
"It seems that the wizard in charge of the inspection made a mistake. I'm really sorry.
"It's really okay. I was just a little surprised yesterday."
The Marquis Bell was deeply moved to think that his grandson would say such a thing to reassure him.
He praised Sable among the thrones standing behind his back.
"Thanks to you, our Jamie was not hurt. Thank you so much."
no. I just did what I had to do. And without me, Master Jamie would have defeated Tolke himself."
If it was 'Lightning Thunder' that Jamie cast yesterday, Tolke would have been made of black charcoal.
"As the rumors say, you were really good at it. It was an honor for me to see with these eyes."
"It's overrated."
Jamie thought Sable, who bowed his head back to himself, was a pretty decent guy.
Although he has great skills, he is also humble.
'Because I'm from the Welltons?'
Showing respect, no matter what, made Jamie feel slightly better.
No matter how long they live, they receive praise, and there is no human in the world who will not like it.
"Jamie!"
Sears heard the belatedly and ran to Jamie and hugged him tightly.
"Are you okay? Where are you hurt?"
Jamie was choked, but knew she had to explain to get it out of her grip, so she did her best to summarize what she said earlier.
"Really dangerous. Next time, don't go out alone. Okay?
"Yeah-"
Jamie replied formally. Because she wasn't the one who wouldn't leave.
At that time, the servant from outside brought the good news.
"The Little Lord Drex Bell is back!"
Sears opened his eyes and jumped up.
Older brother?!
"Looks like you are here now."
At the words of the Marquis, Sears took Jamie in his arms and started running towards the entrance.
"Oh, Mom!"
It happened without Jamie having a chance to do anything.
Fearing that he might fall, he grabbed Sears' neck without realizing it.
Sears saw someone and shouted with a bright face.
Older brother!
"Sears?"
The man who looked exactly like Sears looked at her and widened his eyes.
"I heard you were coming. Did you come yesterday?"
Huh! How much is this?"
"That's it. Anyway, that kid... ."
Huh. Jamie. Should I say hello?"
Jamie was distracted, but nodded at the man who looked exactly like Sears.
"This is Jamie Welton. Good morning.
haha. I'm finally seeing my nephew. nice to meet. My name is Drex Bell. I will be your eldest uncle."
With the same smile as his mother, Drex grabbed Jamie's little hand and waved it.
"Your daughter?"
"You will still be sleeping. I have some urgent work to do, so I left it behind."
I'll see you later on the second nephew. Anyway, it's been a really long time. This guy."
"Come and tell me now, I'm sorry. brother.
Siblings, seeing each other for the first time in 7 years, solved their long hiatus by hugging each other tightly.
Drex released Sears and greeted his father, Marquis Belle, who had arrived later.
I'm back, Dad.
okay.
"Then Sears. I have something to talk about with my father for a while, so I'll see you when we have dinner.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Sears widened his eyes and saw the back of the Marquis, Drex, and Sable moving away.
"Is there something bigger than your brother's return?"
Sears wrinkled one eye and folded his arms.
Then he asks his son.
"Isn't that right, Jamie?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"Sheesh. Work is more important than my brother. But what happened? You look a little serious."
As she said, the three of them disappeared while talking seriously with quite dark faces.
Is something serious?
Suddenly, in Jamie's mind, the soldiers he saw on the way here came to mind.
'Maybe something related to it.'
Then Jamie looked around.
'Come to think of it, why can't I see that Beiryl yangban?'
