210 Jake's New Life, Part 7 - Reflections

"I wonder if I've done too much..."

Ruth was troubled in the Deep Green Palace alone. That development was just as surprising to Ruth. I wish I could worship even Dute Hilde's troubled face. I showed up there, but I didn't expect her to go home alone in the rain or anything.

In fact, it was Ruth's indulgent wisdom that made Linda unleash such a harsh word as she did earlier. Investigating that Linda was a relatively decent person to talk to, Ruth told Dute Hilde that she no longer had company, and that it would not be good for anyone if she continued to behave like this. And I asked Linda to help me set up my moxibustion.

The absence of the carriage was also designed by Ruth to work on the horse's wheels and prevent the wheels from turning well. On his way to pick up Dute Hilde, the butler noticed that the carriage was running strangely and took the carriage to the repairman. Ruth, who watched the whole thing, noticed something wrong with the carriage in front of the school gate, approached the thoughtful butler as to what was going on.

"I just grabbed my uncle's rice balls."

And I offered to soak it up. A good butler believed in Ruth, who had kindly taught him to fix the carriage, and went straight to the repair shop. It should be noted that Ruth is investigating the repair shop until it is closed today.

It was meant to be a perfect plan if I tried Ruth, but from now on, I can't deny there were all sorts of holes. How the child thinks when he turns his head. But just in case, I had other proposals for Ruth, but I didn't think this operation would fit this far, so I clapped it out a bit.

But when I fit in so far, I just stay behind rather than accomplish it. It was supposed to fail somewhat and be as good as it was, but now I could only feel Ruth doing too much.

"Hmm, what shall I do? But you can still think of things that aren't obvious... well, look at the results before you think about it."

And the day after that, Dute Hilde didn't come to school. Ruth was convinced that even those high-flying women would still be depressed by the crowd, but after two or three days Dute Hilde wouldn't come to school. And for not coming to school on the fourth day, Ruth was anxious that things had gone too far in his unexpected direction and went to talk to Jake during his lunch break.

"Jeez, do you have a minute?

"Oh, I wanted to ask Ruth something, too. That twirl doesn't come to school. Nobles like Linda are depressed, and what have you done?

"First..."

Ruth tells you what she did. I was Jake listening to the words, but eventually I opened my mouth slowly.

"You're overdoing it as a result, that's"

"... sorry"

Ruth was visibly soggy. Jake sighs loudly again, too.

"But I'm responsible for the plan, too. Ruth, do you think bullying will happen when you get back from that twirl again?

Ruth arm-wrapped to think a little and eventually shook her neck to the side.

"Aren't you just not going to do it anymore? 'Cause that Buburu won't be back for a while, and we're not gonna do any more of this, are we? Besides, this kind of thing is creeping around, so if it opens up, no one will do it."

"I'm bored, or... I see"

Jake seemed somewhat convinced. Since Bruns disappeared, I've been able to talk to some noble men, albeit little by little. Now that Dute Hilde is gone, the rest of the civilian population and nobility are starting to talk a little bit. Some classes are organized by several people, so we have to talk about them in progress, but maybe that's the normal flow in Gloria originally.

"So, what do you do?

"What?

Jake doesn't try to be the sincerest of Ruth's words.

"That twirl. Are you gonna leave me alone?

"... I'm not going to kick the whirl out. I don't think that will solve anything. Instead, I want to talk about why I even did that to Nellie."

Jake said quietly.

"And that Linda kid is pathetic, too. You've always been depressed 'it's your fault'. So I'm gonna take Linda and I'm gonna go round to the house after school today. Can't you?"

"No, I don't think so. Because I can't do it anymore."

Ruth put his hands up and posed for surrender.

"Is Ruth not coming?

"I'm not. 'Cause I don't think I've done anything wrong."

Ruth answers flatly.

"Come on, you think it's a little too much, don't you?

"But if you don't like it here, it's mostly this way. If it's too late, it's too late. I think I could have done more. [M] I don't know how good I am, but Risa and Neri don't always come together, so I want to get stuck. If that's what you want, I'll grab whatever you want, and I'll make you whatever you want."

"Ruth..."

It's rare for Ruth to be so clear, but Jake was just as prepared for it as Ruth, so he no longer said anything.

And after school, Jake accompanies Linda to Dute Hilde's mansion. Linda is also going to school by carriage again, so Jake had her put on that carriage. And the house is also a neighborhood, so when you get to the gate of Dute Hilde's house, you give instructions for Linda to go home to you first.

Even when I say gate, by the time I get further inside, I have to walk a few hundred meters. Originally, it is normal for nobles to first touch each other when visiting each other's houses, and then after arriving at the gate, the inviting side guides them to the front door by carriage. This is a sudden visit, which means Linda hasn't made a heads-up. Even the most aristocratic things are still between children. It is also a remote world from the social world, so they used to come and go to each other's homes without touching each other. And from the gate to the front door, they walk away.

"Are you sure?

"Yeah, because Hilde's butler always sends me home. In our social circle, visitors are polite to deliver their visitors safely."

"... it's a world I don't really understand."

Linda makes a little laugh about whether that face was strange because Jake looked difficult.

"Mr. Jake is a funny guy."

"Really? What neighborhood?

"Is that where the expression changes around? Keep your feelings intact, as if they're always spent"

"Are you guys different?

They said it was funny what was normal for Jake, and they thought it was strange. Isn't it natural to live honestly in your own mind?

"... the aristocratic world is difficult. So much courtesy and rituals that I don't know what's true. Honestly, most of those who are aristocrats will feel that way. That's the same for Hilde, isn't it?

"That's a lie."

"No, is that true? Jumping on the bed when you and I are together. You're so naughty. I'm sure you can't usually do that. And she's a very sweet girl, isn't she?

"That twirl?

Jake opens his mouth gently, like he said he couldn't believe it. Linda held her mouth and laughed, wondering if that expression was strange once again.

"Hehe hehe. Because she likes to take care of animals. There are all kinds of animals in this house, but some of them are kids she picked up." I can't leave you looking cold, "he said.

"... uh-huh, then why do you have that attitude at school..."

Arm up, in a way that Jake says he's increasingly confused. Linda looks at the situation.

"(I thought you were a rougher guy as far as the class that knocked that Bruns out, but thank God this guy named Jake isn't like any other guy (O.K.). What do you call it, something that kind of sits strong in my stomach. I know as well as I know that the move that took down the Bruns wasn't concomitant, and the look on your face at that time... scared me, but you all said it was a little good)"

When Jake defeated the Bruns, of course, they were on the spot training in escort. Not everyone saw the battle between Jake and the Bruns, but this Linda and her surroundings happened to be. Jake's disease-like movements and the look on his face at that time remind Linda.

Only Dute Hilde was bitterly watching how it went, so no one said anything then, but now that Dute Hilde was gone, they were talking about the time as they please. Then Jake went in the right direction as to who said it.

Be noble girls, Jake was the first civilian not to snag at nobility, although he initially thought of Jake as a businessman. So at first we thought our authority would be threatened, but Jake didn't do anything prestigious or prestigious when he defeated the Bruns. I just spend as much time as I've ever had and care about Nellie. Considering that Lotte is also a statement from a sense of pure justice, think calmly and he will be a strong boy of righteous martial arts. Wouldn't that remain the ideal image of a knight? I admire stories of love between knights and princesses with aristocratic girls. What if Jake grows up and becomes a fine knight? They don't even think about it.

And sometimes girls admire boys who are a little rough at a young age. Jake's ratings were changing that way among the aristocratic girls.

"(Try this... Mr. Jake looks tough inside, doesn't he? Wouldn't it be pretty good in the future? And I'm going to be tall. I heard your legs will be taller. Well, you're going to be in the knight's story... no, I would. What the hell are you thinking)"

Linda blushes her cheeks a little. There was probably some delusion there about the girl of her age, but Jake didn't know that. When Linda noticed, Jake stared at Linda's face.

"Hey, what is it?

Linda had such delusions in mind that she completely forgot that she was walking with herself now.

"No, we're here?

"Huh?"

The front door of the Liechtenstein family was already in front of Jake, pointing out that he had a little something. Linda is immersed in paranoia. She forgot she was already in front of the front door. By the way, it was just before Linda and Jake, who grew up in Linda's delusions, kissed each other, in confidence.

"Oh, right. Then let's come, Mr. Jake!

"My right leg and my right hand are out at the same time, okay?

That's how the two knocked on the door of Dute Hilde's house.
