Chapter 21.2
I'm taking cla.s.ses under the instruction of my mum Claire in the study room on the first floor, but I can’t concentrate because I can hear voices outside .
Smoky and a little bird are looking into this room through the window . The bird is not the anybird that just came, but a little bird with gray feathers . This small bird gave me the information that he saw goblins in the forest .
It seems it’s wing injury has gotten better .
Why are you here?
“What’s wrong with you Jed? You seem to be unable to concentrate . ”
My mother who’s holding a book in one hand raised her voice doubtfully while looking at the window .
“No, it’s okay . ”
“Is that so? It looks like you’re observing the window restlessly, what is it?”
Saying so, my mother walks towards the window .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt『It’s a human! Run away!』
『Isn’t it Jed?』
『Wrong!』
『Tired . 』
When my mother opens the window, the bird flys away franticly and smokey leaves .
Once my mother confirms that n.o.body is there, she closes the window and returns .
“It looks like there was a stray dog . Let’s continue . ”
“Well, that’s enough for now . Learning history and n.o.ble manners is troublesome . ”
“What’s wrong with you Jed?? You are a genius in reading and writing words, and calculus, but you hate other studies . ”
“Because I’m the third son, I won’t take over the territory, and I don’t need n.o.ble manners . ”
I still understand the use of history . But where would I use n.o.ble manners? I’m the third son right?
“You’re so good at reading and writing, so if you go to school, you can aim for a court job . Isn’t that enough?”
“That’s what the chief maid Elerka said . ”
“Yeah, but it’s true . ”
Elerka, the chief maid, seems to have worked as a maid in court, and in this mansion, she is a very good woman who has the most rights apart from our family .
It’s true that it’s tough, though . It feels relentless even if I try to keep on top of my lessons .
Because reading, writing, and calculus get more difficult as time goes by .
I’m sorry about the school evaluation, but I have no intention of doing so .
“I don’t feel like working at the court or going somewhere . ”
“Well!? Then what will you do Jed?”
My mother asks in a terribly surprised voice in response to what I said as a forecast of the future .
“… . I want to travel around the world as an adventurer . ”
“Wha? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!?”
Today’s cla.s.s ended early .
My studies ended early and my mother went somewhere to talk with my father .
I’m happy about it, I now have some free time .
Let’s take a walk .
If I go to the village, I think I’ll b.u.mp into Onoki, so I went to the forest today .
I speak to Gladys, who is swinging a sword in the garden, and go out .
I got caught by the words “Don’t go near the forest filled with monsters . ”, so I decided to go to the forest behind the house .
Still, Gladys is growing up and is becoming more like his father . He’s tall and has muscles . I want you to give some of those muscles to your brother .
I’ve been to the west forest not to far away, but I’ve never been to the forest behind the mansion .
So let’s go check what’s going on today . Are there any delicious nuts?
