It's another sunny day.

Wearing limited-edition running shoes, Klose stepped on the soft sands of the Solo Coast, accompanied by the gentle breeze of early autumn and the egg yellow morning light, completing the daily compulsory morning run.

He sat on a reef by the sea, took out a bottle of mineral water and poured it into his stomach, and then there was a long sound of satisfaction.

"Ah~~~~~ limited edition of the sea, the beach, the whole body.... These are all mine? How does it feel like a dream? ”

Facing the rising sun, Klose squinted his eyes and enjoyed a moment of tranquility.

He thought that his territory was also full of hope and vitality like the rising sun....

It's been almost three months since I got to the Eagle Stream Canyon, and these three months have been busy, but also fulfilling.

Every day, buildings and farmland are raised around the Magic Eagle Castle.

Through Klose's deliberate efforts, the various races in his territory have basically maintained a delicate balance.

The villagers of Eagle Horn Village are very close to the Ink Wolf Clan.

The Black Iron Dwarves and the Orcs are getting closer and closer.

The goblins and harpies, who are also unpopular, want to get along.

Thinking that he had another meeting to go, Klose stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his buttocks, and began to run towards the castle.

"Huh? Who's that? ”

When Klose ran to the pepper field on the edge of the castle, he saw a man crouching on the edge of the ridge in the distance.

ran in only to find out, isn't this the royal sister advisor Jessica~ What is she doing here?

The corners of Klose's mouth curled, and a prank was born.

I saw him walk up behind Jessica lightly, reach out and pat the other party's shoulder, and scream violently.

"Hey!"

“！？”

Jessica's body shook violently, and she was so frightened that she sat on the ground.

"Hehehehe~Just kidding my advisor~"

Klose folded his hands together in admittance, and waited for the other party to split his head and cover his face.

But to his surprise, he didn't wait for the other party's storm, but waited for a "shh~~~~"

"Huh?"

Looking at the look of this glasses royal sister with her fingers raised, it seemed that she was afraid of who would be arguing.

"What's yelling!? Do you have a little self-consciousness as a noble lord? And also! The peppers are blooming! Don't scare them! ”

Jessica gritted her teeth and glared, saying the quietest words with the greatest force.

"Noisy peppers? Hehehe~ You can pull it down! ”

Klose didn't care, and had no intention of lowering his voice at all.

But the next moment.... His hippie smile was printed on the door with a size 36 court leather boot.

"Hmm! ....”

The little lord was kicked in the face by his advisor, and he fell to the ground with his head on his back.

Covering his fragile little nose, which had left a nosebleed, the first thing Klose did was to stop Kane from tearing apart the royal beauty.

"Huh? Your Highness! You... It doesn't matter to you, right? ”

Kicked Klose's royal sister down, and then realized what she had done.

She kicked her master.

Although it was a subconscious move, although the teenager in front of him was really underbeaten..... But this move of hers could already be sent to the gallows by Klose.

However, our little lord replied first with an apologetic face.

"Hmm... It's me who didn't do it first... I should apologize to you. ”

Jessica: "...."

Jessica didn't know what to say, and in the three months since she was in contact with Klose, she felt more and more unable to see through the other party.

Because Klose's performance in the past three months has completely subverted the image of the "three wastes" illegitimate child he showed in the previous 16 years.

You must know that Jessica has also met Klose before.

At that time, Klose's face was full of "inferiority", "wretchedness", and "stupidity".

And now?

"Confident", "Sunny", "Gentle", "Surprising"!

If Jessica still hears someone call Klose a "three-waste" bastard, then she will definitely tear that person's mouth apart immediately.

It can be seen that seeing is not necessarily true, let alone rumors.

Klose probably felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he coughed and said speechlessly, "What are you doing here?" Is chili that good-looking? ”

Jessica pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose and said, "Your Highness, haven't you noticed that they have bloomed!" ”

"Is it strange that it blooms? Peppers are meant to bloom before they are ripe. ”

"But... Don't you think it's faster? ”

"This...."

After the other party reminded Klose of this, he found out that yes! How long has this pepper been grown? How is it already blooming?

And looking at the few pepper trees in the field, it seems that they are already about to bear fruit!

"yes... It stands to reason that the flowering is still falling, but this result... How long has it been planted? One month? ”

Although Klose did not know how to grow peppers, he also devoured two books on agriculture when he was clearing the wasteland.

He still understands the most basic common sense.

Peppers generally take 60-70 days from sowing to flowering, and it takes another 20-30 days after flowering to fruiting.

But what about his chili? From sowing to now full, it is a maximum of one month!

Could it be....

A bold idea popped into Klose's head!

He thinks that if he grows plants on the earth in another world, the maturity period will be greatly shortened!?

If that's the case, it's too rebellious! At least the people of his realm never had to worry about starvation.

Approaching the pepper field, Klose also squatted down in Jessica's example, quietly approaching the small flowers.

"Jessica, it looks like your hard work has finally paid off lately... I think if someone else were to take care of this pepper field, it would not be as good as you'd grow! I can't do it anyway. ”

Hearing Klose's words, the Royal Sister Advisor was slightly surprised. She thought that the little lord would not notice her, but she didn't expect that he would take care of these peppers and see them in his eyes.

Indeed, Jessica was originally interested in pharmacy.

People who like pharmacy naturally like herbalism.

And the Chinese herbs and vegetables that Klose showed her were all varieties that Jessica had never seen before!

In the face of so many temptations, do you think she can not be tempted?

Unusually, this cold-faced royal sister actually showed a gentle smile!

Of course, this smiley face is facing Chili, but not to our little lord.

"yes... Not only these peppers, but also many of the Chinese medicine seeds we planted also bloomed. ”

"Oh?"

Klose blamed himself in his heart, because he hadn't paid attention to the cultivation of Chinese medicine for a long time.

"Ahem... Kindness... Miss Jessica, you've done a great job! ”

Klose bowed solemnly to Jessica.

The latter looked at the little lord in surprise, not understanding what he was doing?

A royal family, even if it is an illegitimate child, has never bowed to its vassals. Unless, after they die in battle...

Seeing that this cold-faced consultant was in a good mood today, Klose hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Miss Jessica, let's go to the Chinese medicine field to have a look." ”

This time Jessica did not refuse, but walked beside Klose, with a happy face.

In her opinion, these herbs are like her most precious treasures, and she will never get tired of looking at them.

"Well... Miss Jessica, can I ask you a question? ”

"Huh? What's the problem? ”

Jessica turned to her side with a natural expression.

"You see, we've been living under the same roof for three months.... I also turned a blind eye to the first time you delivered the elves to the Imperial City, as if it didn't happen! Can.... You can't send messages to the Imperial City again and again... It's hard for me to do that..."

Jessica's heart jumped, it seems that this bastard is really not simple! I was able to intercept my own secret message!

Looks like... He didn't mean to kill himself.

"Your Highness, I do not deny that I have passed on the message. As you know, I was sent by the Queen, and I am a 'spy', so there's nothing to shy away from.

But.... There were only two elves on me, and they were released within the first week. I don't know how many times you mean three or four times, but it's definitely more than twice, right?

With all due respect, my Highness, it seems that the 'spy' on your side .... I don't seem to be alone. ”

Okay, this Jessica is a bachelor, so she generously admitted it directly.

But....

Klose suddenly felt that his head was a little big... How many spies have been planted around you?

Were all these spies sent by the queen? Or is it that everyone else is also ....

Klose couldn't figure it out, wasn't he just a waste bastard? Is it really okay to send so many spies with you?

You must know that you brought about 20 people with you when you set off!

It seems that it is necessary for Meloyd to investigate these "tumors" hidden in the shadows!

"Ahem... Kindness... Let's put this thing aside for a while, in fact... Kindness.. That's right! I would like to hire Miss Jessica as my etiquette consultant! ”

Klose's awkward change of subject succeeded in piquing Jessica's interest.

"Etiquette advisor? Why does Your Highness want to learn this now? ”

"Hehe~ Look~ First, after all, I'm a nobleman~ Even if it's an illegitimate child, you can't disgrace our Holger principality, right? This second... It won't be long before our territory will welcome its first honored guests, and I think it would be better for me to know more about basic etiquette and knowledge. ”

Jessica's eyes rolled: "Master of Ceremonies... Well, I promise you! From tomorrow onwards, I will teach you the purest court etiquette! There is also the division of power among various families on the mainland. Your Highness, please be prepared. ”

"Huh?"

Klose swallowed, the momentum exuded by this female consultant at this moment reminded him of his homeroom teacher when he was in his third year of high school....
