…Good morning.
Now, I, Iris, after receiving instructions from father, have moved to the territory of Armelia. Today is the first day. The morning sun was dazzling, illuminating this region.
As for what I do early in the morning, I practice yoga. The first thing I do in the morning after waking up is exercise, and more importantly, it is good for health. ... Well, not enough. My body is a little fat, so. Due to my status as the daughter of a Duke, I tend to eat as much fancy and high-calorie food as I want, so it is natural for me to gain weight. And because of that, I decided to go on a diet and work hard in the morning.
"Good morning, young lady. .. uh, kyaaa! "
"... Oh, Tanya. Good morning." Good morning."
I wonder why Tanya is so surprised? Ah, of course, Tanya also came to the territory of Armelia with me. I think it's fine because it's not a "cage route".
"Good morning, but that's not it. Young mistress, what are you doing with such an appearance. "
"A look like this, you say ..."
I saw my own appearance. ... Linen tunic and pants that I got with the help of a maid. Don't you think it's the perfect outfit to wear while exercising?
"For the sake of my health, I intend to exercise like this every morning. I choose clothes that are easy to move, isn't that nice? "
"Madam's young, sport?"
A doubtful and suspicious expression filled Tanya's face. Certainly, a noble young lady was exercising, I could not really imagine it.
"Yes. I read in the book that it is not good for one's health if one does not move their body. Since I intend to do this every morning, please do not be surprised at all. "
"I understand ... I'm sorry without mercy."
"It's okay ... But since I'm sweating, can you be ready to take a shower?"
"Of course."
After I got into the tub, Tanya was ready, I went and had breakfast. ... Because I exercise, I eat a lot for breakfast. Of course, I make sure it's balanced.
"... After this, I want to talk to Sebastian. Can you make an appointment? "
"Surely."
A very good question immediately made an appointment with Sebastian, and talks with him would take place before noon. Sebastian is a Steward and Butler of our House. Even as I said "master steward", he had been left to manage our territory substantially. In other words, Super Butler.
When Sebastian enters the room, he somehow has the same smell as Rime ... In other words, he was wearing clothes in a swallowtail coat. Although he moved quickly, he did not give the impression of someone rushing over. Instead, her movements looked very beautiful ... In addition to a full head of gray hair, its appearance is a blinding definition of a butler.
"... You seem pretty busy, I'm sorry for calling you despite your busy schedule."
"Even. By all rights, I should have given you my regards, I'm sorry. "
"Now, without delay. Can you collect and present income and expenditure reports of this region over the past three years? "
"I respectfully obey. However, what are you going to do with it? "
"Of course I'll read all that. In any case, I accepted the position of "Vice President of the feudal" given by the Duke. However, although I am ashamed to say this, I currently have no information on how the region is managed or the current situation. So please give me a month? "
"One month, you say?"
"Yes, because I need to read all the reports, and also check the land. "
"definitely. However, if you want to inspect the land, it takes approximately one week for the necessary preparation. "
"This time, to understand the present condition, I intend to conduct an incognito examination. Therefore, I only need a minimal number of people to accompany me. Since I can vouch for the members, I don't have to trouble Sebastian. "
"I'm asking a cocky question, I'm sorry."
"Not everything. Although I will manage this territory from now on, I will still give you an important position. So, please give advice. "
"Ask. Can you call Ryle and Dida, and Rehme too? "
"Surely."
After a few minutes, Tanya entered the room with three other people who were my age ... In other words, they were also the ones I raised.
Ryle had beautiful blonde hair, looking like any other young noble.and although he had a lower physique than the Royal Knights, he would not lose them while fighting. Besides, he's more or less my bodyguard.
Dida, like Ryle, serves as my bodyguard. Although he is a person who is easily happy when praised or flattered and has an easy-going nature, his ability is guaranteed.
Rehme is a girl who wears glasses and loves to read books. He currently serves as a librarian in our House.Talking about Duke's library, he has a collection of valuable books. When compared to my previous world, the collection of books is on the SMP level scale and above. Thus, he considered his role very important.
"It's been a long time since we met, everyone."
since those three people could not come with me to the Royal City to attend the academy, they stayed in this region to work.
although I told them that they were free to do what they wanted .. and that it was great fun for them to leave this region, he said, I'm glad they stayed but apologised at the same time.
"It's been a long time, our daughter."
The one who answered first was Dida. He answered her in the usual way while smiling with a smile.
"Dida. You spoke to Iris-sama with that tone again ... "
"It's okay, Ryle. Everyone is like family to me. If no one else is around, I'd be happy if you guys spoke to me the same way you used to. "
"However, Iris-sama ..."
"Please, Ryle."
"…I understand."
Ryle agreed while blowing a long breath.
"As everyone already knows, my engagement with Edward-sama has been annulled, and I have returned to this territory."
"I can't accept it at all. Why was Iris-sama's engagement not only cancelled, but it had to be locked up at home? "
Rehme is similar to Tanya. He also cried in agitation. Although there was a gap between his personality and appearance, he always spoke casually.
"Rubber. Indeed, he was a young master with poor eyesight. "
"thank you. However, this matter is settled. Moreover, I am very happy to be able to stay together with everyone in this region once again. ... Now, about the real problem that exists. As everyone knows, I have been appointed as the Feudal Lord Representative in this region. So, the first thing I want to do is check out the various places ... Does everyone want to accompany me? "
"I humbly accept."
"Daughter's Escort, yes ~ The ring is great."
While the two people showed his motivation, Rehme had a difficult expression on his face.
"They're both in control, so I understand. What is my purpose as a friend? "
"Simply put, is it because I want your knowledge?"
"Eh?"
"If I'm not mistaken, you've read extensively every book that's in Duke's library? There are also books on local history and geography. I want the knowledge you get from reading those books. Moreover, it was very different when there was prior knowledge while investigating the various places. "
Our house has an amazing collection of books. Aside from being a noble house, the books have been collected by generations of Prime Ministers. Every large room in this mansion was already filled with books.
As for the genre, there are also a variety of variations. The books were, of course, collected on the basis of various hobbies of different generations, such as Politics, Geography, Law, and various others, and because Rehme had read all those books, he said, I believe that he has great knowledge.
"... Then I understand. I will work hard to fulfill my duty.
