16 – Seo, it’s a gift, so don’t misunderstand it!

Finn doubted his eyes for a moment.

‘This is all guests?’

From nob le mt l dot com

Most of them were faces I had never seen before.

But there were some familiar faces among them.

“It’s been a while Finn.”

“Uncle Belgus. What the hell is this?”

Belgus was a merchant selling bread in the same market as Finn.

When Finn’s shop was doing better than it is now, he would stop by once in a while for food.

“The master of rail said he would buy me food today.”

“Are you going to Rail Bioland?”

“Everyone here came to eat at your restaurant. I should have heard it more often, but now I’m sorry.”

“Oh, no.”

First of all, Finn guided the customers into the store so that customers would not wait outside.

“Finn, what the hell is this?”

“I only know that Rail Bioland brought guests.”

“By the way, where is the Rail Master?”

“Okay. Strangely, I didn’t see him.”

It was when Finn and his mother were looking for rails.

Hiiing-

The neighing of a horse came from outside the store.

The door was open, so people didn’t have to go outside to see that the carriage had stopped in front of the store.

And when the door of the wagon opened, everyone’s eyes turned to it.

“Isn’t that the daughter of the Violand family?”

“More than that, the person next to you looks like Miss Elise, right?”

People inside the store naturally raised their lips at the sight of the two women gracefully getting off the carriage with aristocratic gestures.

After Alice got off the wagon, the rail crew got off the wagon next.

And seeing that, a middle-aged man got up from his seat in shock.

“Wait, why is the Archmage in a place like this?!”

Then everyone’s eyes turned from the two women to Fenia, who was holding a staff larger than herself.

Fenia lightly waved her hand as if she was used to seeing people like that.

One is the daughter of a marquis with a long history, one is the eldest daughter of a baron famous for its artifacts, and the other is the only archmage in the era.

Three people who are usually hard to see have all gathered in one place.

In addition, the three of them were also outstanding, so the atmosphere in the store couldn’t help but rise.

I approached Finn, who was staring blankly at us.

“Are there any seats left? Pin.”

“Yes, there is just one large seat left…”

Fortunately, there were seats left for us to sit.

But for some reason, I could see Finn trembling little by little when he saw us.

Anyway, it seemed that the noble people were very nervous because they visited the store all at once.

I tapped him lightly on the shoulder.

“Hey, don’t be too nervous.”

“Yes.”

“If the other kids ask me to do something, I just give them everything, because I will do all the billing.”

“Okay.”

After I said that, I immediately sat down for Finn to take his order.

On either side of me sat Aline and Ellis, and across from me sat Fenia and Layla.

Still, thanks to living together at home, Layla and Fenia became somewhat close, so there seemed to be nothing awkward about each other.

I looked at Alice, who came to visit me after a day at my request.

“I’m sorry for suddenly asking you to come here.”

“No. I also received a lot of help from Rail. We have to live by helping each other.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

At my words, Alice smiled at what she was happy about.

Then Lila, who was watching us, opened her mouth.

“I didn’t know my brother was planning something like this.”

“What are my plans?”

“No. Still, I’m glad my brother is back to the way he was before.”

‘Come back to the past?’

I tilted my head at Layla’s meaningless answer.

Compared to the beginning, Layla’s vigilance towards me has decreased a lot.

I’m not completely off guard yet, but being able to have a normal conversation was a huge step forward for me.

The first reason Layla and Elise were called was to spread rumors that even nobles visit the shop.

If so, the number of other citizens who have heard the rumors will visit the store more than before.

Finn’s mother is also completely healed, so she should have no problem making food.

Her second was to make a kite with Elise for her sister Lila.

As we saw in the novel, the only reliable characters in the Violand family are the father, Euler, and the third daughter, Lyla.

I have no intention of rising to the position of head of household. However, he had no intention of handing over the position of head of the household to his second son, Kyle.

As in the original work, I thought it would be appropriate for Layla to take the position of head of the household.

That’s why I’m going to introduce all of my personal connections to Lila, even though I’m few.

And since Alyn hadn’t talked to anyone except me and Fenia, I planned to take this opportunity to wed the two of her same age.

“Hello. I’ve been to the mansion before, but I’m sure I haven’t seen it.”

At my words, Elise immediately greeted Lila, whom she had never seen before.

“Hello. My name is Alice of House Neonbar.”

“The Neonbar family? I also use the Neonbar family artifacts because they are so good!”

“Really?”

“Yes! I still wear them!”

Lila shows us her bracelet worn on her wrist in a slightly agitated state.

The name of Neon Bar was engraved there in the language of this world.

I learned that I can read the language of this world when I sent a letter to Alice the day before.

Since I was always training with Aline and Fenia, I had no chance to write or read anything.

“I never dreamed that Lady Lyla would use our family items.”

“hahahaha. You’re young Just feel free to call me Lila. You seem to be the same age as me. How old are you by any chance?”

“I am 16 years old. She just came of age.”

“Really? You are the same age as me. Then, shall we speak plainly to each other?”

“Is that so?”

The two, who were always confined to the mansion, continued their conversation happily as if they were happy to meet a friend of the same age.

I turned her head to Aline, who was still sitting quietly beside her.

And quietly whispered in a voice that Aline could hear.

“You’re the same age as the kids, aren’t you talking?”

“I don’t want to ruin the atmosphere by intervening. But more than that, how does your lord know my age?”

Ah.

Come to think of it, Aline never told me how old she was.

I calmly opened her mouth without showing any embarrassment.

“I just took a picture because they looked similar. Are you wrong?”

“No. The lord’s prediction was correct.”

“Aren’t the two of you uncomfortable?”

“It is not uncomfortable.”

I’m glad.

It was okay with Alice as they mixed up several times at the prom, but she thought Alyn was avoiding her because Lila had never spoken to them personally, even though they lived in the same mansion.

“If Layla and I are in danger later, protect me before me.”

Aline did not answer right away, but took a moment to answer.

“I got it.”

Unlike me, who can protect at least one of her bodies now, Layla couldn’t defend herself yet.

Although the development has already changed a lot from the original, there was still a possibility that Layla would be caught in other dangers.

“The food is here.”

The long-awaited rice soup was placed on our table.

Eris and Laila, seeing the steaming hot soup for the first time, didn’t know how to eat it.

It seems that you feel a bit repulsed by the food you are seeing for the first time.

But soon after seeing me, Aline, and Fenia eating soup with spoons, I moved the spoon with a little nervous face.

Alice, who was sitting next to her, closed her eyes and put the soup into her mouth.

“Um?”

Elise’s mouth, which had been moving slowly, began to move faster and faster.

She and she again she moved the spoon and put the soup back into her mouth.

Well well.

Since her mouth was small, Alice’s cheeks bulged slightly.

She felt the urge to press her fingers down her cute cheeks, which bulged like squirrels.

But I managed to control my urge and asked Elise.

“How is it?”

“Is it delicious?”

“Really?”

“Wow. It’s delicious.”

When her friend said it was delicious, she gathered up her courage and put the soup into her mouth, even though she was reluctant to eat it.

Well well.

I could see Lila’s expression lighten little by little from the frown on her face.

“Huh? Really? Delicious.”

Fortunately, the rice soup seemed to suit the taste of the two of them.

I thought it was a good idea to visit first after hearing Luna’s words that it might not suit the taste of the two of them.

Alyn and I, who were originally accustomed to common people’s food like rice soup, had no objection to the taste, but Penia, who usually eats food from certified chefs, had a different taste than us.

That’s why I visited a soup restaurant with Penny the day before. While Finn was also treating her mother’s wounds.

I overheard the conversation of the vendors eating at the table.

“There was a restaurant like this before, so why didn’t I know?”

“Isn’t it because the location is vague compared to other places? If it had been in a crowded place, it would have already spread and become famous.”

“But starting tomorrow, it will be quite difficult to eat here. Ha ha ha!”

They turned their gaze towards us and nodded in agreement.

Hearing the news that we, aristocrats, were visiting, he seemed to think that there would be more customers in the store.

After such a noisy meal, people left the restaurant with compliments saying that they enjoyed their meal.

Among them, some merchants who seemed to have a lot of money, perhaps because they smelled money, offered to support the store.

Of course, Finn, who had already received a large amount of money from me the day before, declined their offer.

After all the customers left the store, I took out the bag I had prepared and set it down on the table.

And I calmed Aline, who was still sitting and inhaling the fifth bowl of rice soup, and stood up.

Aline had no choice but to get up from her seat with a regretful look on her face.

“Then we go too.”

“Wait a minute!”

Just as we were about to leave the store, Finn stopped us.

“I left the money on my table.”

“That’s not it…”

It didn’t seem like they arrested us for money.

And Finn’s gaze turns to Fenia, a girl of the same age as himself.

Facing their gaze, Finn bent down right in front of Fenia.

“Thank you for treating my mother’s wounds!”

“Huh?”

Fenia made a puzzled expression for the first time.

And I was also surprised.

Fenia’s magic was so perfect that Lila, her family, couldn’t recognize it.

But Finn knew at once that we were guests from yesterday.

“I don’t know what you mean?”

Fenia made her face look like she had no idea, but Finn opened her mouth with a look of almost certainty.

“The design is different, but the wand and reach you brought yesterday are the same. And the sack that Rail Bioland left behind is the same sack made from the same cowhide as yesterday.”

Looks like Finn’s eyes are sharper than I expected.

And this time Finn’s eyes turn to Aline.

“And he was the first person to eat more than 5 bowls of soup in the long run of the store.”

Ah.

Anyway, the reason Finn had the most confidence seemed to be Aline, who ate five bowls of soup.

Including my previous life, Aline was the only one who ate this much.

In the end, I was caught, and I sighed and opened my mouth.

“Yes. If you need anything more, contact Luna.”

“Yes. Rail Bioland.”

Fin didn’t use honorifics with me until the end.

Since I was the one who hurt his mother, I didn’t bother either.

After leaving the store, we looked around the market once and then moved to the mansion.

“I’ll go to my parents’ house now.”

“Are you going already?”

Layla put on a sad expression when Elise said that she was already going back to her hometown.

“Yes… You left without a word after receiving Rail’s letter, so you have to go home quickly.”

She was grateful to Alice for coming right after receiving my letter, but she felt sorry that she might have asked for something in vain.

I wonder if my thoughts were revealed in my expression.

Elise turned her gaze to me.

“I also want to meet Rail after a long time… It’s not! I came because I wanted to see Aline and Fenia again!”

Elise quickly changed her words.

In an instant, Elise’s face turned red like an apple.

Then she starts fanning her hot face with her hand.

“And I brought a present for Rail…”

Then, with her blushing face, Ellis took out a small box from her arms and handed it to me.

“Sir, it’s a gift, so don’t misunderstand it for something else!”
