I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Villainess’s Older Brother - Chapter 51

In the carriage on the way back, Cain gave the same explanation to Arundilano that he had given to Dianna.

“The nobility and royalty live off the taxes of the common people. In return, the nobility and royalty have to protect the lives of the common people. There are children who have no food to eat and no clothes to wear simply because they have no parents, and that is only because the nobility and royalty are not strong enough.”

“Cain. That’s an exaggeration. We have orphanages, we have roofs over their heads, and we are not starving them because of the prestige of the king.”

I explained directly, in a more difficult way than Dianna, but Fabian was the one who reacted and countered.

Fabian said that he was fulfilling his duty as a nobleman because they were living a life that was sheltered from rain and wind and did not starve. He may have been considerate of Arundilano, though.

“I believe WE have a difference of PERCEPTION regarding the definition of healthy, civilized, and bare necessities.”

Cain did not argue strongly but avoided discussing it as a difference of perception. He knew that the question of how far is far enough was a topic that could probably be discussed for hours without reaching a conclusion.

“Your Highness, Prince Arundilano. Did you have a good time today?”

Smiling, Cain asked Arundilano. Arundirano, whose cheeks were red from moving around so much, nodded with a smile.

“It was fun. I was frustrated that I couldn’t win the game of musical chairs, so I want to work out more so that I can win! I want a strong rock!”

“I’m glad to hear that. The next time you come to Elgrandark’s house, the four of us can play a game of musical chairs, including Dianna. Let’s practice, get stronger, and try again.”

“Yes!”

In a game of musical chairs, Arundilano was almost able to sit on a chair several times but was pushed off by a bigger kid, which was unavoidable because of the age difference between 4 and 6, but Arundilano was frustrated.

“Next week, Her Royal Highness and you will go to another orphanage, but I hope you will play with them as well as you did today. I hope that Your Highness Al will teach them how to play the game of musical chairs and the duck duck goose. I’m sure they will be delighted.”

“You want me to teach them?”

“Aren’t those games common children like to play?”

“I’m sure the other children in the orphanage don’t know these games because I taught them how to play musical chairs, duck duck goose, and kagome kagome. It’s a good way to get to know each other because you can play with a lot of people at once.”

Cain responded to Fabian and Arundilano’s questions. Arundilano looked at him respectfully, and Fabian looked at him scornfully.

After taking Cain and Ilvalino home, Fabian and Arundilano went back to the royal palace.

Arundilano was motivated to learn more about the life and management of the children in the orphanage before the consolation visit.

It was about the time where tea time was over when Cain got home.

After a magic lesson with Dianna, Ilvalino, and Cain, Cain and Ilvareno went for their daily run.

“Serenosta is very good with his hands. At the blacksmith shop where he worked, he was taught how to carve handles and scabbards, and how to make tassels and simple carvings.”

“He’s been embroidering today too, right.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“In the blacksmith’s shop, there was a toolbox used by the blacksmith’s predecessors that were locked up, and Serenosta showed him how to open it.”

“That’s amazing.”

“For some reason, the blacksmith had received several safes and toolboxes that had lost their locks and could no longer be opened, and Serenosta had opened all of them.”

“Oh, I have a bad feeling about this.”

“Serenosta’s leg was run over by a carriage and he couldn’t walk properly. He couldn’t do his chores anymore, so he was sent back to the orphanage.”

“……”

“Serenosta has been recruited by a new apprentice. …And I’m supposed to take him with me.”

Ilvalino didn’t say where or to where, but Cain was on edge and biting his back teeth hard. He knew who the recruiters were and where they were taking him.

Ilvalino is asking Cain for help. This is because Ilvalino himself was saved by Cain.

After being hired as a servant for the Elgrandark family, he continued to take time off to go out for backstage work, but the frequency of these trips was much less than when he was at the orphanage.

The reason for this is that he has become more valuable as a source of information now that he has joined the duke’s family, and he is not given as much work because it would look suspicious if he left frequently.

“It’s hard to ask for another person to be hired on my authority. I was lucky with you, Ilvalino. My mother liked you. And you had a certain amount of manners from the start.”

Ilvalino is also good looking. It’s no surprise because he was a target to conquer in the game, but he has a beautiful face. It made a good impression on both Dismaya and Elyse and was advantageous in gaining permission to keep him close.

However, Serenosta has the appearance of an ordinary child and the personality of a brat. Despite his dexterity, his personality was rough and his voice was loud.

He was not the type of child who would be well-liked by the adults of the nobility.

“I see…”

Ilvalino replied in a dejected voice.

As they passed by the main gate, they stopped their conversation and ran past, waving to the knights.

“ You know, I always didn’t like the idea of Ilvalino being used by others forever. “

“What?”

“I also don’t like the fact that Ilvalino’s well-deserved vacation is being ruined by his ‘side job’. You should take his vacation properly.”

“What are you talking about?”

“I said you could continue, but I still don’t like the idea…… I guess I’m going to have to take back you completely from them.”

As I run, I look at the face of Ilvalino, who is running next to me, and smile.

“Ilvalino, tell them I’m a selenosta and take me with you.”

“Huh!?”

“Okay, last run! Dash!”

Cain left Ilvalino behind and ran the last lap as fast as he could.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
