Even White Can Turn Into Black If It Got Caught Between Blacks
In order to cheer up Ra-chan, I, along with Eric, Ra-chan, and Loretta came to Koryatt village again.
Alicia kindly tried to lend us the Ringrande’s house carriage, but as expected that was too much, so we moved to the village using our Slowlett’s house carriage. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Koryatt village is now on the second day of the Harvest Festival, today is also lively.
The first day of the Harvest Festival yesterday was amazing, but the excitement never wanes.
If anything, it was showing a scene as if it was saying it was just about to begin.
「Now then, what should we do now?」
We tried to cheer up Ra-chan by coming to the village, but we hadn’t decided on what to do. Or rather, I wonder if there are some entertainments that can make Ra-chan lively again? It’s gonna be hard if we use food since we just had breakfast.
「Take us to a place where there is something interesting going on」
When I tried to bring up the topic to Eric, I got an awfully arrogant and indifferent reply.
Y’know, having a sister who can say such a selfish line is enough.
「Even if you ask me that, I have already taken you all to all the main places」
Even I want to do that, but we already went around the throwing target, kick target, and small fish scooping yesterday.
And because of Alicia and Luna’s wish, we also installed the targets in the mansion’s courtyard, so there is nothing to do in the village.
「Oh, isn’t it Al! You came already, huh!」
Just as we were troubled about what to do, Torr and Asmo approached us.
「……ah」
Looking at those two, Ra-chan makes a sad-looking face, probably because she remembered the shocking sight yesterday. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Torr and Asmo’s timing was really bad. Ra-chan gets sad when the two of you get closer, so go away」
「Haaaa!? What the heck? We didn’t do anything to that kid, y’know!?」
「Right, right. You better explain」
Even though I shoo-ed Torr and Asmo away with my hand when they came closer, the two of them didn’t understand and still came closer.
Since this is an inevitable outcome, I told them the cause of Ra-chan’s shock yesterday.
Immediately after that, Torr and Asmo had this astonished expression.
「…………say, Al. Is this kid really a girl?」
「I know you can’t believe it and she’s too different from the women in Koryatt village but it’s the truth」
「…………this is the first time I saw a girl with such a kind heart」
「Weren’t the girls in Koryatt village also as innocent as Ra-chan when they were little?」
I don’t live in the village so I’m not in an equal situation with the commoners so I don’t know the details of their life. However, wouldn’t children be pure?
And when I ask them with such a faint expectation like that, Asmo and Torr seem to look at me with a compassionate gaze as if seeing someone unfortunate.
「Al, if white is stuck between blacks, it will turn black」
「Just like Reversi. But, well, black can’t turn into white」
It’s painful I understand Asmo and Torr’s words to the point that it hurts
They’re saying that pure things will get dirty easily. Apparently, my understanding of people was too naive. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「By the way, that person......that person was also there with you yesterday, is he a noble-sama?」
Torr’s gaze turns toward Eric beside me.
I introduced them to Ra-chan, but not to Eric yesterday.
Or rather, can Torr speak politely despite his manner?
「Un, that’s right」
「My name is Eric Sylford. The second son of the Sylford’s house」
Eric then steps forward and introduces himself, guess he read the flow of our conversation.
「I’m Torr」
「Asmo」
「What is Eric-sama’s rank?」
「It’s a Baron?」
「Baron? That means you are the same as Al?」
「So it’s not an Earl or a Duke」
Torr and Asmo have a somewhat nervous look on their faces, but when they realize that Eric is the same Baron as me, it feels like they underestimate him or rather they become almost condescending. The change in their attitude is shocking www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「……oi, don’t look down on me just because I’m the same rank as Alfried」
Why did he make the assumption that they look down on him because they compare him with me?
「But, your atmosphere is more noble-ish compared to Al」
「Un, sharper 」
「I, is that so? It’s good that you understand」
「「So simple」」
Their remarks offended Eric, but then he became happy after receiving Torr and Asmo's blatant flattery.
I’m a little annoyed that I was cited as an example and then put down by them.
Well, we all know that Sylford’s territory is the same countryside as Koryatt village and the distance between the people is close so Eric wouldn’t be offended.
The meticulous Loretta looked to have mixed feelings about this, but Torr and Asmo were polite toward Ra-chan so she looks to have no complaints about that.
「With this I completed my promise of introducing you to the nobles. Well, we’ll get going then」
「Wait. You can leave the matter of making that Ranna-sama happy to us!」
Just when I was about to walk again and leave Torr and Asmo, Torr came to my side and pulled my sleeve.
Until yesterday, it was the cute Ra-chan who was pulling my sleeve with upturned eyes, so it made me feel very dirty.
「……Torr, what’s your aim? You’re not that kind person, are you?」
I’m not used to hearing Torr’s lines with a moral sense and feel so distant to me so I got goosebumps hearing that.
Then Torr makes an awkward expression when I look at him with suspicion.
「That may be so, but you said it was our fault so it’s uncomfortable for us. Besides, there are no innocent kids like Ra-chan around」
Eh? I feel like I’ve heard this kind of exchange somewhere. Specifically, it was the conversation I had with Elna-kaasan back at the mansion. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「I want to cheer her up since we made her sad」
Asmo apologetically said.
That’s right. If there were such a cute and young girl, I think anyone would want to cheer her up
Normally, we are someone who is treated as servants by our sisters, and we are weak to Ra-chan - who is like a little sister - which stimulates our desire to protect her.
「Fine. Then I will ask for your opinion for now, do you have any good ideas? It’d be nice if there was something fun to do in Koryatt village. Not kick target of the others」
And when I tried to tell them my request, Torr and Asmo looked at each other and nodded.
「There is! It’s like a village game!」
「Un, Al is only playing around the central part of the village, but there is also something interesting at Harvest Festival if you come to the edge of the village」
I guess it’s because I’ve been so busy entertaining the visiting nobles that I haven’t had the chance to explore every corner of the Harvest Festival.
There might be more entertainment that only some of the villagers know about.
「Really? Can you guide us there?」
「Leave it to us!」
And when I directly take their offer, Torr and Asmo walk off triumphantly.
「And so, shall we go to Torr and Asmo’s recommended place?」
「Torr and Asmo’s recommended place? Okay」
She didn’t really understand what was going on but I guess she knew that we could go to a fun place and Ra-chan began to smile somewhat.
I hope Ra-chan will continue to smile like this. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
I hate this. "Normally, we are someone who is treated as servants by our sisters."
