117 Intermission Noel's rehabilitation




 When Leon and his friends are studying abroad again.

 Noel, who is being cared for by the Baron Baltfart family, was rehabilitated.

 A priestess of the Holy Tree.

 Noel, who is of that family's blood, is a sapling brought back to the kingdom by Rion - a young tree priestess.

 In the Republic of Alsel, her twin sister, Lelia, is a priestess.

 She walked around the room, holding onto the railing.

 She sustained wounds that were hardly survivable, but the treatment of Luxion and the others saved her life.

 For a while after that, she spent some time recuperating, but now she was rehabilitating for the next year.

 He managed to walk around, sweating.

 The elf Yumeria is cheering Noel on like that.

''Noel-sama, please do your best!

 Noelle almost laughed as the lovely Humelia cheered her on.

'Okay, so stop the weird dancing,'

'What? It's a dance for support.

 Humelia, who is somewhat out of the loop, works as a servant at the baron's house.

 She was now Noel's personal servant, taking care of her personal affairs.

 Noel thinks.

(When this is over, it's a study, and after that--)

 The treatment in the Baron's family, which is taking care of him, is that he is an important guest for now.

 There is widespread talk that he is set to become Leon's side room, and Leon's parents will treat him with a sense of apology.

 In the first place, Rion's parents seemed to be opposed to a side room.

 The reason lies with Angier and Livia.

 With two fiancées, what about a third?

 Something like that.

 I was dumbfounded by Rion and sympathetic to Noel, who had no choice but to become a side room due to circumstances and position.

 However, not all of the people in the mansion are friendly to Noel.

 A person who dislikes Noel comes into the room.

''Hey, Yumeria! You didn't even finish the job we asked you to do!

 That person was Rion's sister, [Finley Fow Baldfalt].

 Finley, who had a bob cut and was petite unlike Jenna, was dressed in the costume worn by the servants.

 Yumelia hurriedly apologizes.

''I'm sorry, Finley-sama! So, but your wife told me not to spoil it.

 Finley stepped on the ground.

'Use your head a little! Just do it without your mother knowing!

 She had been spoiled until now because she was a girl, but things in the kingdom were changing.

 If this was the case, Finley had started training as a bride, just like Jenna.

''Why is this happening already! Your sister isn't going to be able to marry, and I can't even buy a slave! At least until I graduate, it should be the same as it was before!

 Things in the kingdom have changed dramatically.

 Finley is not the only one who feels as if the ladder has been removed.

 Noel let out a sigh when he saw Finley crying out that he wanted an elf slave.

(This is terrible.)

 Things were different in the Kingdom and the Republic.

 They don't call their slaves their personal servants and take them around.

 That's why Noel couldn't understand Finley's feelings.

You know, you should give up now. I'd rather be an honest bride trainer.

 Kicking back and glaring at him, Finley complains to Noel.

'Don't you dare talk to me, housemate! You're not that stupid brother's lover!

 --the third woman I love, Leon had said.

 So Finley's words were no mistake.

'Men have mistresses because they want them to have children. You're getting carried away, aren't you?

 Yumelia was buzzing and shaking.

 Noel yells at Finley.

'Can-can-can May, you little brat!

What! What? !

 Originally, Noel is a big sister.

 At one time, she was hunted down by a yandere boyfriend named Erik, but she is strong-minded by nature.

'Can you say the same thing to your mother? It's not like there aren't enough men to begin with! Come on, you need to get real.

 When the position of women was strong, the reason mistresses were allowed was because there were so few men.

 Even the kingdoms that wanted to reduce the power of the local lords had a problem with too few men.

 But the women in strong positions were not so eager to have children.

 To begin with, giving birth to a child was a matter of life and death.

 The more children a woman had, the greater the risk.

 For this reason, women were allowed to have side rooms.

 And now men are in a stronger position.

'As Angelica said, boys are deprived even at your age, Colin. Can you, as it is, turn around a boy your age?

 Finley averted his gaze.

'But they say that if you go to the academy, you can choose all the men you want--'

Your sister, she's about to graduate unmarried.

 Finley was about to cry when the reality hit him.

 He walked out of the room as it was.

'It's May! You stupid brother's mistress!

 Finley leaves.

 Noel lets out a sigh in his room, but soon enough, Ruth walks in.

 Apparently he had heard the conversation.

'Ma'am!'

 To Humelia's surprise, Ruth gave her a troubled look and apologized.

''I'm sorry Finley has caused you so much trouble. Noel-chan is struggling in rehab and that boy is so selfish.''

 In contrast, Noel laughed in annoyance.

''Wow, I'm the one who lost my temper--I'm sorry.

 Luce sat Noel down and began to make small talk as he did.

 Now Luse is officially Barcus's wife.

 She is a baroness.

 Because of Lyon's position, there is no one to ostensibly complain about that.

''Noel-chan, how's life here? I'm not crippled, am I?

We're better off than we were before.

Well, that's good.

 From Luse's point of view, it was easy to talk to Noel.

 Angel was too high in status, and his position in Libya was different again.

 Therefore, he doesn't know how to treat him, but Noel is able to talk to him in a good way.

 Luse confides his worries to Noel.

''--Did you hear about my child possibly marrying the princess?

'Yes. Ange told me about it.

'Why can't she be normal? You should have thought about Noel's feelings, too.

 From Ruth's perspective, who also heard the third statement and Noel's background, there was some dissatisfaction with Rion.

 Noel is well-liked by Leon's family.

'I would have been happier if you had married Nix.

'You're marrying your brother-in-law? I'm in a delicate position, so it's difficult.

 It's not easy for the Knicks.

 He is, after all, Leon's brother.

 And he is the head of the baronial family and is sure to rise in the future.

 That's why we get numerous matchmaking offers.

 From Luse's point of view, they are all princesses on a cloud.

 None of them are as easy to talk to as Noel.

''Noel-chan, I know you're going through a lot of things--I'll support you.

Thank you.

 When he sees Noel smiling and answering, Ruth laments that he wanted a girl like this.

 Then, this time, Colin comes into the room.

'Sister Noel! I got some bugs!

Oh, you're good.

 When Noel praises Colin, Ruth scolds him.

'Colin, I told you Noel, you're in rehab,'

'Because my brother is busy, and Finley is angry, and no one will play with him. If brother Leon were here, he could teach me all kinds of pranks.

 When Colin said no one would play with him, Noel beckoned to him.

'Don't sulk. Don't sulk. Let me take care of you, sis.'

Yes!

 Looking at the honest Colin, Ruth bursts into tears.

''Rion had such a lovely time too, though. And yet, now I can't believe he's taking such a good girl as his mistress.'

 Noel had to chuckle, but life in the barony wasn't bad.
