Chapter 238: I Don\'t Want To Work

「This is a rare time for us so why don’t we have a little talk? Your drowsiness will also disappear when you are talking」

「Un, sureー」

It’s boring to just stay silent after all.

When I nodded as if agreeing with him, Nord-tousan leans forward and asks me.

「In the future, what does Al wants to be?」

Uwa, it came out! The usual topic that will be brought up when you’re alone with your father.

Though I understand that a father will be concerned about their child, I feel pressured when being asked like that.

「You don’t have to give me that unpleasant look」

Perhaps my feelings show on my face since Nord-tousan smiled as if feeling a little troubled by it.

It’s enough for me to be bothered by that kind of ‘what kind of future course or things are you going to do’ in my previous life. Honestly, I don’t want you to bring up that topic in this life.

「But, Al is seven years old. Sylvio will succeed in the lord’s position, while Eleonora will enter the Knight’s Order in the royal capital. Although there is still time, I think it’s about time for Al to think about his own path in the future. The sooner you decide your own path, the better it is for you later」

「Hmmー, if you say so」

「Does Al have something you want to do? Tousan will support you as much as I can if you have something you want to do」

Nord-tousan asks with a grin on his face.

That smile was so kind that it makes me feel that he will honestly accept it, no matter what kind of impulsive dream I tell him.

I felt such an aura from Nord-tousan, and I slowly put my thoughts together and tell him about it.

「I want to, to live a life where I will do nothing but eat and sleep!」

「……please don’t do that if possible」

「Why!? You said that you will support me if I have something I want to do, didn’t you!」

「That was not a dream or something you want to do, but your habitual desire. I can’t support something like that as a father」

Nord-tousan slowly shakes his head when he heard what I said to him.

What’s wrong with being honest with my desires?

「Is there nothing else?」

「None. I want to play whenever I want to, and go out whenever I felt like it. My dream is to enjoy my freedom and have a slow life without working at all.」

「………」

When I tell him resolutely with unwavering eyes, Nord-tousan sits deeply on the backrest and sighs.

「There are the reversi, pasta, and spinning tops, I think I’ve earned enough for a lifetime……」

「……that’s certainly true」

Nord-tousan uttered with a bitter expression on his face when I mention the reason why it’s fine for me not to work.

Besides, there is still table tennis, Jenga, and Slime cushion waiting to be released. The products will continue to sell, so the Slowlett house’s wallet will continue to receive money.

When I think about the total amount, it’s an amount of money unthinkable in my previous life.

「Whaaat, rest assured Nord-tousan. I will help with the territory’s work a little as Sylvio-niisan’s assistant. I’m also good at studying in my own way, so we will have a nice addition in human resources, right?」

A younger brother who supports his feudal lord’s older brother. Isn’t that a wonderful relationship we have?

Of course, I will only help when I have some spare time and when I feel like it.

「……I also envisioned such a future and I thought what a lovely scene that would be」

「Right, right?」

「But, I think it will be bad for Al if it turns out like that」

I unintentionally lean forward when I asked him, but after listening to what he said, I fell.

What the heck is that?

「What do you mean ‘bad’, specifically?

「……Al going to be more corrupt than you currently are 」

That’s rude. Then, wasn’t it like saying that my current lifestyle is already a depraved one?

What’s wrong with a child spending his days leisurely?

「I mean, Al can do these kinds of great magic. Have you ever thought of working in something related to magic?」

「I don’t」

In the first place, I don’t have the option of working normally. Even if it has a relation with my favorite magic, I won’t yield on this.

Speaking of people who have no redeeming features and contribute nothing to their families, they will just be laughed at scornfully but I have already produced results and contributed to my family. It’s not like I’m talking about doing something willfully impossible.

「……haa, I think Al can aim for a work related to the castle if it’s with Al’s ability」

Nord-tousan rests his chin on his hand looking distressed.

「I basically want to stay in Koryatt village」

No matter how much prestige that job gives, it’s useless.

Even when Nord-tousan sends me a glance while saying that, I remain resolute in my stance.

Then Nord-tousan sighed, perhaps he thought that it’s impossible to persuade me now due to my firm will.

「The reason I sent Al to Kagura was that, I thought Al will gain something after coming in contact with the culture of a foreign country though」

Hmm, in the end, I was allowed to go there because of both of my parent\'s expectations, huh?

I became able to fly in the air using Psychic magic. Though I want to brag about it, that’s not what Nord-tousan’s expect from me.

They probably want me to find something I wanted to do in the future by going to Kagura.

I don’t know about their expectations of me, I was just sightseeing and enjoying my time in Kagura with Roomba.

「I actually also found a job I wanted to do in the future after going to Kagura, you know」

「Eh!? Is that true? What is it then?」

Making a complete change from his melancholic expression, Nord-tousan asks with a look full of expectation.

「I want to be an Ice House manager」

「Yes?」

「Using Ice magic and preserving the villagers’ ingredients! I will be able to earn money by only going to the Ice House routinely and using Ice magic. As a member of the noble family who governs the territory, I can also contribute to the villager’s life, an easy―― I mean, a praiseworthy occupation!」

「……haaa」

「……Nord-tousan, why do you sigh?」

Just how many times did you sigh today? You know that happiness will run away from you if you keep on sighing, right?

「You don’t say, you’re saying you want to work in a job for those retired Ice magicians. Even though you went to a distant country and crossed the sea, why did it turns out like that?」

「It’s not a bad thing anyway, it’s fine isn’t it? Nord-tousan also said it before right, that it would be wonderful if I have something I want to do」

Nord-tousan looks like he has a headache when I mention that to him.

「Let’s just stop talking about that subject here. Just as Al always said, Al is still seven years old and there is a lot of time to think about」

But it was Nord-tousan who bring up the topic that I should think of my future with a serious expression, wasn’t it? Oh well, guess there’s no need to retort here. I’m still seven years old, so there’s no need to be that anxious about the future. There may be a more comfortable job than being the manager of an Ice house. It’s too early to decide everything here now.

It’s not necessarily a good thing trying to aim for the target I want to as early as possible.

「Ahh, that‘s right! How about I become a landlord and let the residents of Koryatt village live in My Homes? Providing comfortable houses and receiving money from the residents. I can build the houses with Earth magic so there’s it doesn’t cost any money, and even if something happens I can just rebuild them! I don’t have to work then, don’t you think it’s a great occupation?」

「…………」

I passionately talked about the greatness of My Home and even putting the advantage for the territory’s activity for a while, but Nord-tousan only stared at the burning flames with lackluster eyes.
