Come to think of it, in romance fantasy novels, being the Tower Master is about the fourth most common job for male protagonists. The first is a knight, the second is the crown prince, and the third is a grand duke or duke. The reason the knight is first is that the second and third often wield swords and also serve as knights. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. Seeing the Tower Master with his striking looks, I suddenly wanted to move him up to first place. "What do you want to…-

"By going to the party together, we can become closer. Whether we like it or not, we have to live under the same roof for a while, so it's much better to be on friendly terms than to be uncomfortable with each other." "...Is that the whole reason?" "Well... I also personally want a younger sister." At my offhand remark, Deborah's eyes flickered briefly and intensely. Huh? What's that about? Before I could express my curiosity, Deborah quickly composed her expression. She looked at me…

"Shailyn, if you need financial help again, just let me know. You've proven to be a valuable investment." Instead of thanking him immediately, I hesitated a bit and replied. "It seems you're trusting me too easily... I'm really grateful, but please keep watching over me." To see what kind of person I am. I added with a smile. This approach would give a more humble and modest impression than simply accepting his offer. The Duke looked slightly surprised but then nodded. "Alright, I…

"Heh, even after a successful investment, she didn’t make a proper profit due to insufficient funds! How can such a thing happen..." He placed his palm on the desk and then clenched his fist. Even if Shailyn wasn't a direct descendant of Diart, it was a blow to his pride for her to be distressed over money issues while staying at the Duke's residence. On the other hand, he had this thought: 'She's very much like Diane, who secretly made her first investment with her saved allowance...' Of…

"Oh, kitty!" You shouldn't be running like that with an injured leg! I hurriedly chased after the cat. Despite it being a kitten, it was so swift that I lost it in the maze-like alleyways. Oh no, this can't be. Just because I tied a handkerchief doesn't mean its injured leg is healed. Running would only worsen the wound. Unable to just leave it, I searched for the runaway cat. "Little one, where did you go? Little one!" As I checked inside trash cans and stray bags while wandering the…

With the remaining money from my investment, I planned to buy anything my bondservant might need. I'm still too poor to buy anything expensive. "Plaza again today?" Carl, who sauntered over, gestured as if he was asking out of courtesy. I waved my hand. "No, today I'll stop by the jeweler to sell what I have, then head to the stock exchange." "…Are you serious?" Carl looked at me with a bewildered expression. When I nodded firmly, he raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Why stocks…

* * * After the sparring ended, on the way out of the training ground. Perhaps because things went better than expected, my steps were light, and I felt as if I could fly. "It's thanks to you, Carl." I expressed my gratitude to Carl, who made a significant contribution to today's victory. "Because you helped, I could win the sparring." Even after the item effect ended, I was able to beat the Crown Prince thanks to his diligent training. "Thank you so much." "……." Carl looked…

"……!" Linus, unable to do anything with Shailyn in his arms, momentarily lost strength in his hand and dropped the wooden sword. Thud, roll. The rolling wooden sword hit Dain's feet. Dain slowly bent down, picked up the wooden sword, and declared. "With 30 seconds remaining, Linus dropped the wooden sword, so the winner of this sparring is—my cousin." "…Ha, this can't be." "Wow!" Linus closed his eyes tightly. Shailyn, delighted, sat down on the ground. Having completely…

Grinding my teeth, I grabbed Carl's arm tightly and said, "Let's go for special training from now on. We have to bring down those two's arrogant pride." Carl, who was blinking blankly, spoke in a bewildered voice. "…You're more spirited than I thought, aren’t you?" "If I get discouraged, it's only my loss." How many people in my life have offered unwanted favors while showing off? "But Carl, be honest. Did my practice look that pitiful?" "…I can't say it didn't." Carl brushed…

* * * Fortunately, Carl did not run away. After that, I started serious swordsmanship training under his guidance. He called me out every morning at six to make me run. 'Ha. I'm going to die, really. Is this guy getting revenge because I tore his clothes?!' Like a high school student participating in a marine camp, I ran myself to death on the outdoor training ground. Deborah, passing by the annex, saw me and spoke. "You're full of energy from the morning." To be precise, she picked…
