The Brain of a Duke Princess

Harvest In The City

When one of the men grabbed me, Tanya showed up to protect me. In my eyes, everything that happened was as if it was moving slowly.

“... Do not approach further. ”

Before I knew it, there was a knife in Tanya's hand, I wondered when she took it out. The knife was pointed at the man's throat. Keep pointing to the man's neck until a drop of blood drips down.

"Who are you …"

Due to the unexpected and sudden circumstances, the men looked rather surprised. However, it seemed like they recovered not long after, and the employer started laughing through his nose.

"Geez, didn't you say that it's not fun to use violence, but aren't you guys committing violence now?"

“That's because of the attitude you showed. Violence will be met with violence. That's all there is to it. ”

No, in fact, that's not what I thought at all .. In short, that's the reason I immediately put forward. Tanya, you can't take it anymore, yeah. But because of you, I was saved. Thank you very much.

Well, what should I do now. If I were to reveal my social status here, it would be easy to resolve this matter. However, I want the security forces to arrest them if possible. It would be an advantage to demonstrate their capacity for the sake of maintenance and public order.

I want them to show up so that nothing will deter them from their work if the same happens to others in the future. In addition, it will uphold the idea that our House security forces are there to protect citizens.

"Are you okay ~?

With a very beautiful time, grandfather appeared. Someone new .. Moreover, with grandfather's appearance, he seemed to be a person with great strength, and the moods of the men gradually became resigned.

“... Ck. Let's go . ”

When the employer finally made a decision, two other men went with him.

"… young lady !! Why would you do such a dangerous thing! ”

"Geez, my goodness, Tanya. You shouldn't call me young mistress. ”

“This is not the time to say such a thing! My stomach is getting cold. Even if Gazelle-sama won't show up, I can get out .. ”

"But you were angry even before I went here, right?"

“That's because the young mistress is in a dangerous situation. That's natural. ”

"With such anger ..you will not be able to speak calmly. If someone as intimidating as a grandfather comes out, it seems like no talk will be done .. Therefore, I think that the person most qualified to come out is me. ”

"…Yet…"

“First of all, my main goal is to be an advocate. The children in this place are also citizens that I have to protect. Since that was the case, I didn't mind moving. ”

When I loudly said that, although Tanya was not entirely sure, she ended up being silent.

“About what happened here, I'll add it on the agenda when we get back. Not because it's personal, but because it's some to do for a fief. … Well, now is the time to go back. ”

“About what happened here, I'll add it on the agenda when we get back. Not because it's personal, but because it's some to do for a fief. … Well, now is the time to go back. ”

After that, the children who were shivering in fear regained their spirits and gave us an award, we said goodbye and started walking back.

"… Alice. ”

Not far from the main road, grandfather suddenly called my name.

"Is there some problem, grandfather?"

"Run. … Ask, you understand, don't you. ”

"Of course . ”

"Wai— Ask !!"

"Alice-sama, please don't talk and start running. ”

Tanya led me to the exit of the main road, where a branch of the security forces was located.

"Please help us!"

I, who did not understand the situation well, and with question marks hovering over my head, I looked at Tanya suspiciously.

I, who did not understand the situation well, and with question marks hovering over my head, I looked at Tanya suspiciously.

"What seems to be the problem?"

"There, we are attacked by some guy .. and then someone who coincidentally sees us, helps us .. But because he is outnumbered, I'm worried whether he'll be okay or not …"

Tanya, who usually did not have much expression, displayed a frightening expression as if she was really scared. … Or rather, when you say the man is outnumbered, could it be grandpa …

“It was very serious! We'll be leaving soon. ”

Three men from the security forces showed up and followed us. … However, grandfather definitely looks much stronger even with the three of them combined.

Tanya and I followed them. Tanya needed to act as their guide, however, I was not separated from them because of the silent pressure I felt coming from my hands. … I thought it would be very safe for me to stay in the guard room alone.

So, when we returned to the scene .. there were about ten people on the ground. For a moment, I thought they were dead, but it seems like they just fainted.

As for grandfather, he was standing amidst unconscious people who looked extremely bored. … Or rather, to be able to take care of this many people in a short time .. As expected of grandfather.

“K-you .. Thank you for your hard work. ”

What a great salute. That reminds me, grandfather gave training to all the guards at the fief yesterday morning, so he probably recognized grandfather's face.

"Mrs. Today, I was asked by one of my acquaintances to be the guardian of these young women. And then, even though I didn't really understand it, they suddenly attacked, so I did. ”

So ... We were just another person until the end. Of course, even though grandfather's face was familiar to them, it was already familiar to them, the fact that I am currently acting as the vice-ruler and daughter of the Duke is only known by those parts of the Azura Conglomerate Development Department and some local governments.

“Thank you for your cooperation. We're gonna take over handling these guys. ”

“Then, I guess I'll leave now. As for the young ladies, I will send you. ”

“Of course. ”

… From there onwards, we returned to the Duke's house without any other incident. By the way, the people who attacked us, as I expected, they were the people of that master. It seemed like he had only left that place because he wanted to call his other friends. They were immediately arrested on human trafficking charges.

Human trafficking is absolutely prohibited in our region. This is not something I proposed, it has been our law for a long time, so there is no need for consideration.

Besides, Ryle and Dida became angry the moment I returned home. Grandpa just stayed behind and laughed. … However, I still intend to go to the city from time to time in the future. It was fun, and more importantly, I harvested a lot of things.

For one thing, picture book trading begins. After that, it will be a fairy tale book for children. I will give it to the institution as a gift. And the results will be used to build new institutions. I decided that even in the future, the profits for picture books would fall to institutions.

… Of course, it goes without saying that my workload is increasing. However, I felt satisfaction more than ever because I had set my goals.

The things I do have no right or wrong answers. … However, I have the power. I can help and protect these kids. No, I can help more people.

Since that's the case, all I have to do is believe and move forward. As I considered that, my doubts were blown away and used my energy to work. … Now, I will do my best with today's work.
