Ch 208
Oscar, eh? — Upon hearing the name, I recalled that I did think he was the perfect match but, now that I think about it properly, he too has his bothersome circumstances.
After lunch with Claudia, I went straight to catch Oscar and confirm his situation, or more precisely, the Terejia family’s situation.
Oscar, who I had officially appointed as the landlord’s assistance when I had entered the school, had always been working here and there.
He has been doing all sorts of work like handling the papers which I approve and Ratoka sorts, having discussions with important people like the bishop, the head of the Shiru family, looking over matters needing attention in the villages and what not…
Although he is supposed to be titled a knight, he has been making Bellway work relentlessly and at this point, he probably does more territorial jobs than me, the lord of the territory.
What on earth are knights? After the Terejia family put on pressure, although I was the one who ordered it, I left Oscar in charge of the territory in my absence. By the way, when I had returned, the tax collection was perfectly done.
Really, what on earth are knights?
Despite all that, he spars with Claudia once every two days and also doesn’t miss the combined training with the territory army — I really don’t understand how… It is at the level where you would doubt if he was using clones or something…
…And well, so, he has now become an existence whom you must call out to if you happen to find him… Otherwise you’d end up having to hunt around the whole territory for him.
Just when I was about to go to his office to deliver some papers and cards, I happened to find him there coincidentally and, in turn for helping him with the register, he agreed to talk with me.
If I had let this go, I am not sure when I would get the opportunity again. Well, if I were to consider his mysterious movement speed, if I had left a memo in his office, he would have probably come to my office the next day, though.
And when I began to tell him to finish the registry calculations fast so that we could talk about his and Claudia’s marriage, he nodded like he had known and explained what Earl Terejia had in mind.
In short, that is what they wanted but they still hadn’t talked about it with the Viscount Rolentsor’s family. Assuming that Claudia wouldn’t settle down before the state of affair with the neighboring country calmed down, they had not yet officially talked about it.
