What happens when you look at a person named Leon Fow Baldfalt from the other side?

　The answer is simple.

"That guy is a real pain in the ass.

　It was Balcus, Rion's father, who said this.

　That was around the time the third semester was suddenly on spring break due to reconstruction after the war.

　Balcus had finally returned to the territory after cleaning up things on the mainland, but he was troubled by the fact that his son - not his third son, but his second son, Rion, had been raised to be his son.

　The mother of Rion, Ruse, who has now become a baroness, is also troubled.

She said, "When the princess of a good place confesses her feelings to you, why is it that she doesn't say no to you or say no to you and not make her attitude clear?

　From the point of view of Barkas and Ruse, the dukes are on a cloud.

　A duchess is like a princess in the eyes of the two of them.

　Although he was confessed by such a princess, Angier, and his good-natured daughter, Livia, Leon did not make his attitude clear.

　Even if I questioned her in person.

It's still early days.
Or rather, it's out of proportion to the dukes~
'What?　Why is it my fault?

　They were both frustrated as they kept repeating their responses like that.

　However, Rion was also right.

　If he was going to marry the duke's daughter, Angier, the Baltic Falt family in Barcus would also have a relationship with him.

　It would mean that there would be more ties to many things.

　It didn't seem.......like he was concerned about that.

'That idiot has a weird way of being careful.

　He has a good mouth and is good at coming up with excuses.

　Ruth is rather concerned about Libya's feelings as well.

I know what Leon says. ─ I know what Rion would say, and it's not a mistake to say that if you choose one or the other, you'll have a corner to stand on. But to say 'I love you both' to someone who seriously confessed their feelings to you is just not....

　Barcus sighed.

'You didn't have to worry about us. That's exactly what he wants to marry.

　Both Angier and Libya are excellent properties from the point of view of Barkas, who was desperate to get married.

　It's a good thing that you have the status of an earl, so you can take Angier as your rightful wife and Libya as your side room.

　That would be the closest thing to a correct response.

　You may think that polygamy is strange in a male-dominated world, but if there is a war, many men of noble birth will die.

　This is a world where people want lots of children because of heirs and all sorts of other problems.

　But having children is also a risk.

　Noblewomen don't want to take that risk again and again.

　Therefore, concubines are allowed as a compromise.

　In that case, a woman of lower rank is chosen than a full wife.

　It is common for them to be chosen from a family below a quasi-baronet family.

　However, many of the school girls do not choose the side course.

　The daughters of even lower rank, from families that are considered vassal knights, are chosen.

　Luse's parents' family is also a vassal of the Baldfalt family--a family of knights.

　As such, they are not obligated to attend the school.

　Luse also had other brothers and sisters, so he could not afford to enroll in the academy. This is the reason why he is not familiar with the circumstances of the academy.

You, what do we do?　What should I do?

"...why doesn't he get married?　Isn't that what he wants?　She's so kind, so bubbly, and her chest--mom said it hurts.

　Ruth pinches Barcus's cheek and looks troubled.

'You could have thought more about your own happiness.

　The two of them, who didn't understand the values derived from Rion's previous life, were desperately pondering, when the Red One-eyed Luxion came to them.

''You seem to be in trouble.''

Oh, yeah.

　Barkas, who was sitting on his haunches, looked a little scared of Luxion.

'What's the matter with you all of a sudden?　Where's Leon?

The master is playing a trick on his sister.

　Both Barcus and Ruth said, "What's that guy doing? And he seemed really angry.

　It was indignant that he was playing around with his sister, Jenna, while they were worried about Leon's marriage.

'By the way, you had an interesting conversation. Do both of your parents approve of your master's marriage?''

　Barkas replies, scared.

''That's right. The count would have no problem with the princess of the duke's family marrying him. Besides, when it comes to a new house, there's not much family. If there are too many of them and there's a dispute over the heir, that's a problem, but if there are too few of them, that's a problem. Livia-chan is more than welcome to come.

　Libya, who came from a commoner's background, is welcomed in large part because of his participation in the war.

　He was recognized for his active role in the royal ships.

　Overshadowed by Leon, there was sober talk of a promotion.

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

I agree with you. You can also find a number of other things to do. I'm not going to do anything with him if he's left unattended.

　Barkas nodded.

'You're the kind of guy who won't work hard unless you push him.

　However, he's also the type that explodes if you push him too hard.

　Luxion happily moved his one eye vertically as he nodded.

''Then I guess you're saying you agree with me?''

No, no, I agree with you, but he's being disrespectful to your daughters...

No problem. I've already received permission from both of you.

What?

''The master is a pain in the ass anyway, so he just makes excuses. He won't come up with any answers himself. Then you can push him into a corner.''

　Barchus waited.

'Oh, hey. If you push him too hard, you don't want him to do anything.

"Don't worry. The Master loves those two.

　Ruth nodded her head.

''Then why would you say no?

　It doesn't make sense to the two of you.

　I couldn't understand why Leon didn't marry her even though they liked each other and had no disabilities.

'He's a pain in the ass,'

　Both Barcus and Ruth were dumbfounded by the value-oriented weirdness of this world, Rion.

''What's with that guy. Why bother with such an enviable situation!　I cried in frustration when I married Zola!

　They are forced to agree to humiliating terms and, as a bonus, the result is mendacity.

　The eldest daughter, Merse, and the eldest son, Rutoart, were both strangers.

　Then again, it was annoying that Leon hadn't gone through with the marriage.

'I didn't know she was this stupid.

　There's a reason why the two of them call Rion a fool.

　Leon, who has risen to become a hero and an earl, will naturally stand out from now on as an aristocrat.

　Thinking about the future, he has no choice but to not marry.

　The two of them couldn't understand that they could choose the partner they wanted, but not choose.

　This is not a world where one could say that marriage is one's own will.

''-- Therefore, would you two be willing to cooperate with me?

　Both Barkas and Ruth looked at each other and nodded.

'So what do we do now?'

'It's simple. We'll let the master perform the engagement ceremony without telling him. I would have preferred a wedding, but after my discussions with the dukes, that's what we're doing.

　Barkas is surprised.

'What?　Have you been talking about that already?

"Yes.

　Luz takes Balcus' hand in hers.

'What do we do with you?'

We've come this far. I'm going to get her engaged so that she doesn't get ripped off by some scary woman in the future. She'll be studying abroad in a few months. I'll do something for sure!

'Well, yes. If you have a fiancé, you won't be overwhelmed, and we've got to do something about this place, even if we have to force it!

　In a voice that was enough to prevent Luxion, who had brought the two of them into the group, from hearing--''

''........Well, even for me, I don't want the master to marry a marriage that he doesn't want. Let's be quiet here and have him get engaged. If it's not good, Roland might try something, you know. If you tell him Master is running around, he'll probably think you don't like it and give you permission right away.''

　It was Luxion who wanted to deal with the marriage relationship first, before Roland did anything else.

'Also, I'd like to see the Master in a hurry at the engagement ceremony,'

　That was why Luxion was proceeding with things without telling Rion.
