Volume 4 Epilogue + New Project Announcement!

After being gunned down by Liams bullets of gratitude, the guide was walking down a dim alley.

Eulisia youve betrayed me!

He never wouldve imagined that Eulisias revenge was just for her to throw Liam away in a rejection.

Why the hell did she need to enter the special forces for that?! it couldnt be helped that the guide felt betrayed.

Normally, those who had returned to the military for re-education dont enlist into the special forces.

And so, the guide was now moving to see Yasushi a person who hasnt done anything this time.

Yasushi. I swear, if youre going to betray me too

Shedding blood from his mouth, what the guide saw while checking up on Yasushis situation was

Thats not enough! Liam was able to do this much easily youll never be able to surpass your senior pupil at this rate!

living inside a hidden place, Yasushi had created a training ground and was currently instructing two children in the way of swordsmanship.

Looking at them, the guide could finally see the light of hope.

Two children were standing in unbalanced positions, gripping onto wooden swords as they sweated.

Although they were just little kids, they seemed to be stronger than Yasushi.

I knew I could believe in you, Yasushi!

Yasushi was currently teaching them the One-Flash.

Having already been proven as effective through Liam, he was apparently teaching the two in the same way using all the money he had left.

Educational capsules were used multiple times, he had invested everything he had to make them stronger.

There was a reason why Yasushi was going this far.

Visiting this place, some obviously corrupt knights had come.

Hey, old man. Have you heard anything about the One-Flash swordmaster Yasushi being here?

Some delinquent-like youths had arrived.

Yasushi immediately answered them,

The One-Flash? Ive never heard of such a thing.

Is that so? The information we collected said that the great knight Liams swordmaster was in this area

What?! Such a celebrity was nearby?! Im sorry, but I dont know anyone of the sort.

Tch! Lets go, you guys

Just like that, more and more people were searching for Liams swordmaster.

Yasushi was frightened.

(Damn it! This bad situation is all because Liam keeps spreading the name of that fictional sword style! Im constantly sticking out in a bad way!)

He didnt have any time to waste.

To defeat Liam, the One-Flash was necessary.

For that goal, Yasushi was currently taking care of two children.

Thats enough!

The two children let out deep breaths while blindfolded.

You two have done great. Youve both grown splendidly.

They removed their blindfolds.

Master, why did you lie to those people?

Hmm?

Small fish like them are easily defeatable.

T-thats because youre not supposed to brandish your swords recklessly! Those blades that youve honed were made to defeat the strong!

The two of them were calling the knights from before small fish.

Even the guide could see that they were stronger than them.

they still arent a match for Liam, but theyre definitely growing. Yasushi, Im cheering for you.

The guide disappeared at that moment, but the dog was still there, watching over the situation.

The kids wiped their sweat,

Youve told us that multiple times already. If we defeat the senior pupil, will you finally recognise us?

I will. Once you defeat Liam, youll pass.

But, is our senior pupil really that famous Liam person? I cant really believe that.

D-dont doubt me! Trust me, youll definitely meet him in due time.

Their stomachs empty, the two kids wanted to go back home already.

Ahh I want to eat more food.

Im hungry~

H-hey, wait!

Looking at the figure of Yasushi struggling to take care of the children, the dog then disappeared as well.

thats weird.New novel chapters are published on

I was currently in Avids cockpit.

When I tried pushing the machine heart onto the control panel, Avid absorbed it.

Even though it didnt work on Amagi

Although there were a few problems, it was still an artifact given to me by the guide.

I was sure it was the real thing, so I tried using it on Avid.

And with that, I think its output has increased.

Well, it was more the sake of using it.

I didnt care about small changes in the specs.

Im happy because Avid got a power up, but how does this work?

Well, since it didnt work with Amagi, maybe this was a good thing yeah, lets go with that.

A room in the mansion.

Beds for the maid androids were lined up there.

Amagi who was lying on one of them, woke up.

life.

To give life to a lifeless object.

When the machine heart didnt react to her, Amagi felt a little happy, but also a little sad.

Does this mean the emotions Ive been feeling are real?

While mulling over those thoughts, Amagi stood up to return to work.

Almost immediately after, Liam sent her a call,

Amagi, I was able to power-up Avid!

Master, did you use the machine heart to do that?

I did!

did I not tell you to refrain from using it until I had it examined?

Dont worry, it came from a source that guarantees its safety.

Despite him saying that, Amagi was worried as she had absolutely no idea about its origins.

Come on, lets give it a spin!

understood.

Amagi had resolved herself to board Avid in order to confirm its current state.

(Why do so many things naturally find their way to Master?)

Artifacts of lost technology seemed to unnaturally gather to Liam.

Amagi couldnt help but wonder if there was some reason for that.

A hotel rented out by Liam at the imperial capital.

Rosetta was currently working as its administrator.

In the lounge, the hotel manager was currently explaining the schedule to her while operating a tablet.

Currently, about eighty percent of our rooms have been occupied.

Knights, soldiers, and officials of the Banfield house were the ones that used them.

Other than that, they had also taken some of the children training at Liams estate for a session of studying abroad.

In addition, the majority of the women who served Rosetta personally were actually noble daughters who had already graduated from said training.

Taking advantage of their tutelage under Liam, they were doing this in order to experience what life in the imperial capital would be like.

After all, there were many aristocrats who never got to leave their territories, and there were many women who didnt really feel like they were daughters of nobles during their training.

With the personal experience she had gained while training here, Rosetta wanted to show them what the upper-class were like.

So we still have room to accept more then.

Then manager replied,

Yes, but if we become fully occupied, itll be hard for us to respond to any sudden changes that may occur.

Thats annoying. There are many people out there who want to know more about the universe.

There were a large number of countryside nobles from the frontier gathering here.

Even if you had heard about how amazing the imperial capital was, it was impossible to truly understand that without actually visiting the place yourself.

With that in mind, it was necessary to educate your people properly about this.

No, but

Lord Liam ordered us to clean up.

One of the opposing knights rushed forward and pulled out their sword, but fell after their head was pierced by Tias rapier.

When she pulled out the blade, blood spouted out of the hole.

Lord Liam will never forgive anyone who ridicules Amagi. Kill all of them without exception, and send the bodies to their houses.

The nobles and the knights were trembling.

Liams knights pulled out their swords, imagining Liams rage at the fools who dared to insult Amagi.

The soldiers lifted up their guns as well.

they dared to make a fool of Lord Liam. For that alone they deserve death.

The underlings and the knights were then slaughtered by Liams subordinates their then thrown to the Marquis mansion in the imperial capital.

While I was relaxing in the top floors suite, Rosetta burst through the door.

Darling, did you do something?!

What?

I was currently sitting on the sofa while reading a book on my tablet terminal.

Various information was floating around.

an acquaintance from my training period had begged me intercede on her behalf.

Your acquaintance?

Shes a child who apprenticed together with me in the palace.

What would such a person want with me?

Who?

Shes the child of a Marquis house. Darling, they recently angered you, and now they want to apologise.

Is this person your friend?

Uh, thats a bit

With how Rosetta had trouble answering, I could tell.

Im sure they werent close.

Just as I was wondering what to do, Marie entered the room,

Lord Liam, heres the information weve collected on the Marquis house.

oh, those people.

After receiving and confirming their information, they seemed to actually be a fairly large house.

But the only thing fitting of their status was their size their territory was comparable to that of the Berkley family.

Their territory wasnt developed, and their fleet was basically a paper tiger.

They mightve had a hundred thousand ships, but the Berkley family was stronger than them.

I knew they were small fries.

Marie was looking at me with her back straight.

I sat down on the couch with a relaxed posture and returned the documents to Marie.

They annoy me, so lets crush them. From here on, lets start moving aggressively!

Since it would be troublesome if this dragged out, I wanted to end this quickly.

That might be difficult. The Marquis has already asked the Empire to intervene. They want to apologise.

What, they dont want to fight?

After hearing that their heir picked a fight with you, Lord Liam, they immediately went through the procedures to disinherit him. Theyre even willing to offer up their daughter to appease you. Ive heard that she actually learned how to behave under Lady Rosettas tutelage during their apprenticeship.

I felt like Rosettas expression turned cloudy there for a second.

Something definitely happened during their time training together.

It might be interesting to watch Rosettas reaction when keeping such a woman nearby.

Okay.

Lets start moving things in that direction.

Thinking so, I started to get a little interested.

Do you have a picture of her? Is she beautiful?

I do.

When Marie prepared the holographic image, a girl who could definitely be considered a beauty was projected there.

She looked to be on the cusp of entering adulthood, as she still had many childish features.

but she was no good.

I could never add someone like her as a mistress.

I hate flashy girls like her. Tell that to the Marquis.

Are you sure? If you accept her as a mistress, the child born between the two of you could be the next Marquis.

She was subtly telling me I could take over their house, but I didnt want such a thing.

Also, I just didnt like her.

She was beautiful, but she had the kind of face that screamed that she would betray me.

It gave off a similar feeling to that of my ex-wife.

She might have the looks, but I could never welcome such a girl as a mistress.

I prefer more modest girls.

Im not interested. If I wanted something like that, I couldve just crushed them and taken their assets by force.

When I said that, Rosettas expression instantly brightened.

Darling!

no, its not like I refused them for you or anything.

Why are you so happy?

Marie seemed pleased as well,

I thought this would happen.

so why did you even bring that last part up? Well, I guess from her position it was only natural to report that.

Darling, I love you!

Probably misunderstanding things, Rosetta went on to hug me.

W-wait, dont! Even if youre really happy right now give me some space!

L-let go of me! Rosetta, stop!

While I was still flustered and struggling, Amagi had brought some tea when she saw my figure.

Oh, you two seem to be getting along should come back with the tea two hours from now?

Y-youre wrong! This is!

It was almost like I was caught in the middle of an affair.

At that moment, Marie seemed to misread the situation and went, Make sure nobody interrupts Lord Liam and gets in the way!

This person really was useless.

While I tried to pull away from Rosettas embrace, Eulisia burst into the room with a bunch of shopping bags.

It looks like shes been visiting various stores today as well.

Lord Liam~ I want to show off to my former colleagues, so lets take a picture together!

This person really was the worst.

She wanted a picture together with me just so she could brag to the mistresses of other nobles or her colleagues that were also aiming for a mistress position.

As I thought, a disappointing girl will always be disappointing.

Amagi and Marie grabbed Eulisia and dragged her out of the room.

Eulisia, you should be more aware of your position as Lord Liams aide.

Dont get in Lady Rosettas way, you piece of junk.

W-wait! Arent you treating me a bit too terribly?! I want another chance~

The three of them left.

All that remained was Rosetta and I.

this is bad.

Rosettas cheeks were flushed.

While I was thinking about how to escape from this place the door burst open to Wallace yelling.

Liam, weve got a problem!

With Wallace suddenly charging into the room, Rosetta reluctantly let go of me and took her distance.

Nice timing, Wallace! so what happened?

I guess it wasnt wrong of me to make this guy my underling.

Rosetta fixed her appearance.

What the out-of-breath Wallace needed to tell me was a new problem.

Its different. T-the third prince.

The third prince?

The prince third in line to the throne wants to meet with you!

At those words, Rosetta covered her mouth in surprise.

The third prince but why?!

Wallace and Rosettas eyes gathered on me.

It looks like things are getting interesting again.
