The morning after Dante-san arrived at the Sanctuary, it was decided that I would immediately show him around the Sanctuary.


    Freesia-san looked after Etoile in my mansion as if it was the most natural thing to do.


    「For starters, shall we go to my home?」


    「Yeah, if I can work by Etoile’s side, that would be ideal.」


    I picked Dante-san up in ce of Freesia-san. And to start with, let’s see if he can help me with my office work.


    「By all means, work rted documents are in my study, or that room that looks like an office on the second floor. There, the officedies(?) of our business sort various documents there.」


    「Despite everything, I was still a Chevalier with a territory. Processing paperwork is simple.」


    「I’m d to hear that. Charlotte and the others had also requested for an increase in personnel, after all.」」


    When I opened the door, a mountain of paperwork upied my desk like always. Yesterday, I went to pick Dante-san up, so the mountain was higher than normal, but I’d like to think it was better than before.「Ah, Master.」


    「……who is that?」


    「Oh my, Iruma-sama, that person is?」


    The clickity-ck of the abacus could be heard within the office, and Gina, Ana, and Charlotte sent me puzzled looks when Dante-san followed me in when I passed through the door. Come to think of it, they had nevere face to face with Dante-san before yesterday. He had stayed a pretty decent period here, but I guess the paperwork had kept them busy. I’ll reflect on it.


    「Ahh, I’ve referred to him before, haven’t I? This is Sophia’s father, Dante-san. Freesia-san’s husband.」


    「Ahh, is that so? Now that you mention it, Sophia’s father did stay here just recently. I would like to reintroduce myself. My name is Charlotte, I am an aide of House Iruma.」


    「I am Gina.」


    「Ana.」


    「……………………」


    「Dante-san?」


    For some reason, Dante was stunned.


    「……A, ah, I’m Dante von Sylphide.」


    「Thesedies are entrusted with work mainly rting to various financial affairs.」


    「I-is that so?」


    It was then that Dante-san tugged on my clothing, and brought me out of the room.


    「What’s the matter?」@@novelbin@@


    「What the hell was that amount of documents?」


    「Umm, today’s is on the lower side.」


    「…………」


    Dante-san shook his head in silence.


    Apparently, the amount of paperwork was iparable to to that of Chevalier Sylphide’s. ording to Dante-san, the amount of documents he saw today was more than the yearly amount of documents in the 50 year history of House Sylphide.


    When I told him about the amount of money thates and goes in a year, his face paled.


    「F-for the time being, please look at the other job options before making a decision.」


    「R-right.」


    There’s a lot of jobs, so I decided to show him around the Sanctuary and see everything before making him decide.


    The first ce I brought Dante-san to did not suit him.


    「This is the fishing and salt-making section.」


    「……this is my first time seeing Mermaids.」


    「You will barely ever see them anywhere else.」


    First, the area that runs along the beach where the mermaids reside.


    The Mermaids were in the fishing and salt industry.


    「Fishing, huh……」


    I didn’t think it was unnatural for Elves to go fishing, but it appears it was rare in Yggurle Kingdom. I did hear about it from Sophia, but apparently, Yggurle Kingdom didn’t eat fish very much.


    Well, they were freshwater fish that live in rivers, ponds andkes, so there might have been something about them.


    The next ce I led him to was the agricultural sector where many of the Sanctuary residents work in.


    The children waved their hands when they saw me.


    The children who were now able to work were working.


    「Fumu, I worked the fields in the Sylphide territory too so it should be no problem.」


    「Is that so? That would be worth it especially because the crops grow very well here thanks to Dryas and Undine.」


    On the way to the next ce I was going to show to him, Dante-san’s mood fouled. He saw Vanga-san walking in the opposite direction.


    「Ah, Vanga-san. Are you on your way back from hunting?」


    「Oh Takumi, this is what I got today.」


    Vanga-san lifted the rabbit he caught.


    「Hee~ so you caught three of them.」


    「Yeah, it is thanks to the Great Spirits that prey are aplenty. That sour face beside you looks irritated again.」


    「What did you say?!」


    Vanga-san and Dante-san really don’t have goodpatibility. They continued to re at each other and walked away.


    I greeted and said goodbye to Vanga-san and hurriedly chased after Dante-san.


    「Vanga-san is a hunter. His wife Martha-san cultivates the fields and does needlework.」


    「I’m going to have to refuse working the same job as that guy.」


    「I-I see……」


    Well, there were still other jobs. Let’s head to the next location.
