Chapter 49.2. The Abnormal Girl

-Kazamichi’s POV-

Yoshiyuki probably thinks that the number of times the magic is done depends on the amount of mana. But he doesn’t know that only recovery magicians are an exception. The nobles know, and they have little to do with magic themselves. The only rumors are that someone is a recovery magician. That was all they heard. It’s not surprising that they do not talk about it, even though they work for the Ministry of Magic.

“Teijo must have paled in comparison. I’m sure they had already decided behind the scenes who they were going to heal, but they unexpectedly used it on everyone.”

“I guess. I can’t keep him quiet about it. There must have been other factions among the invited nobles to show the hostile faction, right?”

Otherwise, there was no way Enraku would have found out so quickly. And Kazamichi immediately understood why Enraku had come to see him. They were nobles from all over the world. The earlier he thought of a plot, the better he could outwit the others.

“This is an opportunity, Enraku-dono. My granddaughter is too out of the ordinary. I can no longer let her fall under another family.”

“That’s right. Yoshiyoki is merely an official of the Ministry of Magic. That is extraordinary.”

The Japanese Magic Empire wa ruled by the emperor and the nobility. The commoners are given the right to vote to reflect the opinions of the people, but in reality, it is still the same old aristocracy. He’s on a different level from the Ministry of Magic’s boorish officials. Laws are not applied equally to everyone.

Nobles, except for fallen nobles, always have companies, large or small. The title of nobility is necessary for tax purposes. The nobles were far more privileged than commoners in terms of taxation.

Therefore, Takano Yoshiyuki was an anomaly. Since the Teijo family has him in their custody, they should have given him to one of the appropriate companies for him, but they did not. They’re exploiting the power of a great talent named Takano Miu.

On the surface, people said the Teijo family is exploiting the power of Takano Miu. Even if the reality is different. It is easy to imagine that Yoshiyuki, a good-natured and good-hearted person, would not accept the company if it was given to him.

However, it’s only because he’s Kazamichi that he understands this. The important point is how it would look from another person’s point of view.

“Do you know what will happen if I tearfully complain about how the Teijo family is rubbing Takano Miu the right way?”

“Of course, I understand Kazamichi-dono’s painful situation. It must be hard for you to have to stand by and watch your only granddaughter being exploited and not be able to see her. I think it’s time to make things right, and I would like to offer to mediate. The other dukes, marquises, and counts will agree.”

This influential family of Japan is 36 families of 3 dukes, 3 marquis, and 30 counts. There are other count families, but there are 36 families that have a long history of wealth and power. There are exceptions, and there are earl families that replace fallen families. There are exceptions.

The dukes and marquises are the most powerful among them. They each incorporate other families into their factions. However, if the Teijo family becomes more powerful than ever, there will be factions that will be wary. No, it is not difficult to imagine they would already be wary.

The neutral families that have not joined a faction and the families that formed alliances with other count families to oppose the factions will not tolerate the Teijo family gaining more power.

The Count Takano family is neutral. It has recently moved closer to the Dukes of Aguni, but it is an independent and self-reliant family. They do not have that much power.

That is why it’s a good target. Even if the Count Takano family acquires Miu, it is unlikely they will be able to expand their power to that extent. At the very least, each family would consider it better than having her stay under the Teijo family.

“A party hosted by the royal family to unveil the upcoming new son and daughter as nobles. Many of the families will be in attendance. Of course, Yoshiyuki will be there. I will try to have some discussions with them. This time we plan to be friendly.”

“I will happen to overhear the conversation on my side. And when I do, I’ll probably be the one to mediate. Because of my personality, and tell them to make up.”

The bold and hot-blooded Enraku would not tolerate any petty quarrels. Such is the scenario. He would hold both of them by the shoulders, laugh at them, and tell them to make up.

“Fufu, at that time, I’d like to ask for your help. In exchange for reconciliation, I plan to make Yoshiyuki the next head of the family.”

“That’s a bold move, Kazamichi-dono.”

“What, I’m still young too. I can also help Yoshiyuki.”

Kazamichi laughed, his mouth twisted into a scornful grin.

The two are used to plotting and scheming, but they are also very cunning. The target was a party of the royal family. The Teijo family cannot make a fuss at a royal party. That was part of their plan. They plan to end the party with some discussion at one corner of the party.

Kazamichi thought about bringing Miu into his own home.

Kazamichi made one mistake.

That is his son, Arashi. The man who was about to be removed as heir was a rough spender. But he had one good thing going for him.

He was generous to his subordinates. He gave large sums of money to those who gathered valuable information.

And the maid standing by the wall, who Kazamichi and the others weren’t even aware of, secretly goes to Arashi after this.

Various conspiracies would gather at the royal party. What the outcome would be, even God did not know.
