The Struggle of a Weak Aristocrat in a Different World Our Domain is Surrounded by Large Aristocrats

C33: Determination

“Well, Viscount Dreschord. Let’s hear your reply!”

Alfred said, giving me a stern look. Then the other two also gave me a stern look and opened their mouths.

“So, you’re joining us?”

“It’s a shame, because I’d be willing to give myself to you. Or maybe you’d be offered to me.”

“No, no, I didn’t say it would be…”

“So you’re not going to be an ally of my dukedom under any circumstances? That’s fine! It’s not good for our family to be unclear!”

The dukes, who are the closest to the royal family, are the most likely to participate in the conflict and have an advantage, and it is easier to win if the dukes are on your side. If the dukes see you as an enemy, it is the end of the line.

“Please be nice to me.”

I said with a smirk and rubbed my hands.

“Hmm. You have a creepy smile on your face!”

Damn it! You’re making fun of my fake smile!

“I see. So you don’t want to get along with my family?”

Mist asked me, her big eyes narrowing.

“No, no, of course I want to be friends with you.”

“Do you really think that’s acceptable?”

“Hee hee!”

I shrank back and let out a pitiful sound at Alfred’s words, which made me grow angry. Then, as I turned pale, Claire spoke to me in a gentle tone of voice.

“Well, Viscount Dreschord. I’m talking about which one of the dragon, the dog or the cat will be your friend. No matter how hard they try, dogs and cats can’t stand up to dragons.”

No, but if you put it that way……dogs and cats are cute…

“You are a woman of great renown, Lady Claire! You are so confident!”

“You’re lucky they think you’re a cat or a dog. You are a dragon. That’s what I mean when I say you have no feet on the ground.”

“Poor bastards. They can’t even recognize the correct difference in ability.”

Also, I had to shut up about the cursing that was getting more and more heated. Seriously, someone help me……

“Well, on a different note, Viscount. I have congratulated you, but I have not heard back from you.”

Claire suddenly pointed an arrow at me. I’m sure I said something, but if she didn’t hear me, it didn’t make sense, so I answered her, even though it was troublesome.

“I apologize for that. Thank you very much for coming to my coming-of-age ceremony.”

“I see. And?”

And……?

“I’m sorry to have bothered you.”

“Don’t worry about it. So?”

So….?

“No, there’s nothing more.”

“Okay. So?”

“……”

No, you’re going to keep doing this until I say it!

“Hey! You’re too dirty!”

Alfred quickly moved in between me and Claire.

“What? What’s so dirty about it? I think you’re dirtier than I am for interrupting a conversation.”

“What conversation is that? Viscount Dreschord! Come to a conclusion quickly! The longer this goes on, the worse your position will be!”

Oh, thank you. Alfredo-san. You’re so kind. But I don’t know what the right thing to do is… What should I do now? Should I just decide where to join? No, it’s not a good idea to become an affiliate here.

First of all, if I join one family, I might be attacked by the other two, and if I make a decision here and now, when I get involved in a royal conflict, I don’t know where the main family belongs, and I might end up joining the side that is likely to lose, and then I might be destroyed.

I guess I’ll just have to fool them and ask them to leave.

“All right! Let’s come to a conclusion!”

When I said that, the three of them turned serious and the air felt tense. It wasn’t just me who felt it, but the serious expressions were gradually infecting the people around me. After confirming that everyone’s faces had tightened up, I took the opportunity to shout.

“Oppaaaaaay!”

At that moment, the area fell silent. A few seconds later, the tense expressions on everyone’s faces changed into a variety of expressions. Some were red with anger, some were pale, and some were laughing from the belly.

“What the hell is this? Viscount Dreschord!”

Alfred yelled.

“Now the god of boobs has possessed me from heaven. I love boobs! Woo hoo hoo!”

“Viscount Dreschord, do you think I’m a fool?”

Claire asks with a livid expression on her face.

“No, no, no! I’m not fooling around! Lady Claire doesn’t have big boobs! But looking at her style, she has beautiful breasts! They’re undeniably beautiful! Amen to that, beautiful breasts!”

“…What?”

Claire’s face turned as red as an apple.

“Viscount Dreschord. I didn’t know you were that kind of person…….”

Mist said, her face twitching.

“Well, well, well! Master Mist! I made a mistake! God of Boobs! Your earth-encompassing, motherly twin hills are the very idols of the boob cult! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

“……”

Instead of twitching, Mist’s face became expressionless. She stared at me with a cold, but still expressionless stare, and then left in silence with her cronies.

When Alfred saw this, he left, shouting and shouting, and his cronies hurried after him.

“I’ll remember this humiliation!”

Claire’s face turned bright red and she left, surrounded by her cronies.

The place was left with me and Yulis, who had eyes that froze anyone who looked at her. It worked, but……
