Chapter 94.3. Sena’s Request
-Masatoshi’s POV-
“All of my friends are wonderful people. They’re all kind and virtuous, but… is it the family’s intentions? They seem to act with that in mind.”
What is her intention? Sena innocently tilted her head and looked puzzled. Sena doesn’t seem to understand the meaning, but Masatoshi with his previous life experience immediately clicked. He guesses it means they’re a friend who is coming to you for profit.
.
Masatoshi’s cronies are the same way. They’re all attracted by his title as the heir apparent of the duke’s family. They are still 10 years old. Some of them may innocently and truly consider him a friend. But he never knows what the future holds. When they reach the age of discernment, many things are bound to change.
“So I’m a true friend. …… I would do anything for Sena-san, right?”
“Masatoshi-san and I are great friends! And from now on, ack, it’s nothing. But my father told me to make something else.”
Masatoshi wants to jump up and down and be happy to be called a great friend. Sena’s cheeks are red, and she looks embarrassed, and he likes to hear the rest of what’s to come, but he holds it back with a giggle. He heard that gruff men are frowned upon.
“But you can’t make a best friend just because you want to, right?”
Common sense tells us that a best friend isn’t something you can make to make one. Masatoshi could understand such a simple thing.
“Right ……, so I thought about it! How about orphaned magicians, for example? Help them before they grow up. I would help them by giving them good housing and good food. Then I think they will become my real friends. And I would be very happy to help the orphaned magician, too!”
“Oh, ………, that’s true, that kind of thing might be possible.”
Sena says excitedly, clasping her hands together in a pan, “It’s a good idea.” I see, indeed, in such a situation, you would be a loyal friend if you could help. But it’s not quite the same as being a friend.
He looks at the kind Sena, who seems happy to help someone who is innocently in need, and he reconsiders it’s okay. A friend would be a friend. Masatohi decided to forget about the discomfort he somehow felt. After all, Sena is a gentle saint. She must want a friend.
“But are there that many orphaned magicians? If commoner orphans, there are some out there.”
“That’s the thing. I heard that Takano Arashi’s son is an orphan. I hear that he has fallen into a miserable life. He’s the child of the one who stole the family heirloom, so none of his relatives have taken him in. There is a possibility that he will be placed in an orphanage exclusively for magicians in the future. But I hear he’s a very powerful magician, you know? It’s pitiful, isn’t it?”
“Oh? Is he a man?”
Magician becomes frustrated that the person Sena is helping is a man. He wasn’t even her boyfriend, but he was already showing his possessiveness.
“Well, so, you see, I’m also a little …… good with a man by my side, Masatoshi-san, but ……… can you help me in Aguni Dukedom? I’m going to see you too. You can’t make such a request come true, can you?”
“No problem at all. Aguni Dukedom’s financial resources are different from those of the rest of the world.”
Masatoshi nodded emphatically, wishing the man would stay away from Sena.
“Thank you very much. Then let’s both of us help those in need, shall we?”
“Yes, let’s both help them.”
Holding Masatoshi’s hand, Sena smiled kindly at her, and feeling the soft, warm touch of her hand, Masatoshi laughed uhehe and nodded vigorously. And so, he decided to secure the orphaned magician.
He would also be surprised later when he meets the other party and realize that he’s one of Masatoshi’s cronies in the original story.
