Chapter 46.1. We’re Going To Do Charity!

Of course, being an air, Takano Miu isn’t through with the main characters. This is the real world. This isn’t the world of games. It’s the world of a novel.

“Hello, ladies. It’s nice to meet you. My name is Kanna Yamato.”

He approached me and greeted me with a beaming smile. Yes, that’s right, his name was Yamato. Sorry, I didn’t remember.

“I am Takano Miu. I am in the third grade! Next year I will be in the fourth grade!”

“I am Teijo Yamiyo. It is an honor to meet you. Duke Kanna.”

I greeted him cheerfully. Miu is a good girl who can greet. Yamiyo, like a young lady in a good place, returns the greeting with a beautiful bow.

“My name is Kanna Shin. I’m looking forward to meeting you.”

“Nice to meet you, Shin!”

Please give me a ring. No, it’s a greeting with a smile, saying hello. Shin exudes a laid-back, good-natured air. He has a personality that seems to have no flip side. How could he grow up to be such a good-natured child from such a father? I guess that’s what they call the cliche of novels.

“It’s nice to meet you too. I’m Aguni Masatoshi.”

The one who greeted bluntly was Masatoshi, who seemed ill-mannered. Well, I guess I shouldn’t make assumptions based on appearances. He is only 9 years old. Even at ……, this guy makes me feel uncomfortable. But I feel uncomfortable with this guy. I feel like he’s an inherently disagreeable human being. That’s unusual.

“Your daughter is the daughter of a recovery magician, isn’t she? The granddaughter of Count Takano’s family?”

“Ojii-chan, I’ve never met him, so I don’t know. My Papa’s, um, I’m the daughter of the Viscount Takano family!”

I heard my father is kind of sensitive with my grandfather, so I’ll smile and appeal that I’m the daughter of a viscount for now.

“That’s right. Excuse me. You’re a daughter of a viscount family. Are you the same age as Shin? That’s a coincidence. The party at the imperial castle is also with Shin. Why don’t you let Shin do the escorting that adults do?”

Under the guise of “fun,” the old man tries to put Shin in charge of the escorting role. What a great guy, this old man. He’s going to recommend me right after we meet?

“Hey, hey, Duke Kanna. Don’t embarrass me too much. It’s good to have a good friend like that, isn’t it, missy? My Masatoshi is sorry for what happened the other day. Why don’t you let him be your escort as a way of apologizing?”

Enraku, you shouldn’t recommend your son while saying that we aren’t on good terms with her. Do you think I’ll nod my head?

I’m so stunned, but I’m irresistible. It reminds me of when I was a white mage in a net game. I was irresistible then, too. I don’t think they’re wrong in wanting a recovery magician.

I was about to open my mouth with a smile to see if he would refuse when Yamiyo suddenly appeared in front of me and smiled smugly.

“Mii-sama is unfamiliar with aristocratic society. So I will be her escort for her upcoming debut party. It’s children’s play, so I don’t think it will be a problem.”

“Well, it’s children’s play. I don’t mind.”

Uncle Ouga rides on those words.

“That’s unfortunate. Besides Shin, he has a twin brother and a younger sister. We met here because of some kind of fate. Please come visit us next time.”

“Both Mi-sama and I are very happy about your offer. Thank you.”

Yamiyo answered with a smiling face and misrepresented the story. Yamiyo’s a scary girl. Isn’t she 9 year old?

Duke Kanna and the others did not show their dissatisfaction, but answered smilingly, then again, and walked to the queen ant’s corpse. Aguni and his son were heading there, followed by Ouga. Masatoshi turned around and glanced at me andYamiyo, and I wondered what it was. He was muttering something about how big the impact was, so he must be thinking a lot for his age. He is indeed the heir apparent of a high-ranking noble family.

More importantly, Shin said he was going to attend the upcoming party. I thought I’d better get a fake ring ready by then.

I’m lucky, I think, and decided to do a charity event. Let’s go to the orphanage!

Two weeks later. I casually asked Yamiyo to make it to this orphanage. I didn’t think she was that enthusiastic, and Yamiyo was surprised, but she still helped me, and I explained to her that I’m going to do a charity event at the orphanage, and she agreed. All Yamiyo did was tell the butler that she would be asking for his help, but I was grateful. I guess the best friend you can have is a good friend.

Something like 20 more kids in the orphanage, and they were having a hard time. Good, good. The orphanage is privately run, and the director is a magician. However, he is a weak magician who can’t even fight.

He is a thin, middle-aged man who makes magic tools and manages the orphanage. Of course, there is a subsidy from the country, but it’s still great. He takes in children who get attacked by monsters, lost their families, and are alone in the world.

I chose [Fight] to try it out.

[A good orphanage director appeared!]

And it was displayed, so it was confirmed that he was a good person. Logs don’t lie. Of course, I canceled the battle by [Escape] without defeating him.

There were about 50 orphans. I’m so sorry. That’s a lot of impoverishment.

They had an old boarding house paid off and turned it into an orphanage. The floor is creaking, and the corners are rotten. There were leaks and drafts.

The bedding is flimsy, though there is room to spare since it is a former boarding house. Yes, I felt guilty.

I looked around the orphanage with a frown.

“Papa! I’ll do my best for charity!”

Of course, there was no way a child could do charity work, so my parents followed me. Yamiyo and the maid. Tamamo’s parents and Tamamo are with me. And many servants from the Teijo and Aburage families.

In the cafeteria, the orphans sing a song, and I collect donations using recovery magic as bait. Many aristocrats invited by the Teijo family and the Aburage family gathered. At a glance, there must be 30 people. I don’t think it’s too little. These people are rich. Donations should reach 10 million. If that’s all we have, is it okay for a year?

“How did you know about the charity, Em-chan?”

“Yes! I heard that you can help people in need!”

Tamamo said with an amused face while wagging her side tail next to me. Fufun and I puffed out our lightly armored chests and became proud.

“Charity is a good thing, Mii-chan.”

“Tehehe.”
