Enjoy
That night, the president came to see me
.
“
I heard you had a nightmare
.
And you cried
“
"
Yes
."
“
Is it because of me?
“
The boss's eyes were slightly moist
.
I blew on the cocoa and answered the president
.
“
I'm a bad man
.
I'm in charge, and
…”
“…”
“
I should have said it gently
“
“
There is one thing you can do for me
“
At my words, the president coughed in vain and mumbled
:
“
What?
…
Why is this related to that?
“
As if my words were absurd, I smiled at him gently
.
The president paused and sighed
.
“…
Only
Fry it
“
“
Get a doll and give her a fake identity
“
“
If it's a doll
…
Do you mean a ball jointed doll?
“
The ball joint doll is a magical tool
.
They can be used as a substitute for a person by injecting magic or power into them
*
A doll pacifier that looks just like a real human
.
“
Generally, in your late twenties, the puppet will be the one running Hope Peak
“
“
It will cost a fortune
.
There is only one type of these mages in the empire, and it is difficult to find them even with the power of Doppelganger
“
“
I have some money to run
“
“
How will you escape if you use it?
“
“
I will not flee
“
I stood up and ran over the president
.
“
I will live here now
“
“
You won't flee?
“
I smiled and said
:
“
I will make Doubled independent of the Empire
.
Where the interference of the Church and the imperial family will not occur
“
“…!”
The president's face hardened
.
“
This is not possible
.
It is something that everyone, from the first Duke to the current Duke, has aimed for, but no one has achieved
.
It's just a meaningless dream
“
“
Why did your mouth tremble when you said it was a dream?
“
He let out a loud laugh
.
“
It's funny how excited you are about the word independence even at this age
“
“
Isn't that very honest of you?
“
The president's eyes sparkled as I held the cup of cocoa with both hands
.
“
The people who served in Doubled are honest but have their own desire
.
Only hypocrites from the empire call us evil
“
“
The doll will take my place until I'm old enough
.
Go get it
“
“
It seems that my birthday present from Louis is not Spinel, but it is you, Little Miss
“
The boss and I looked at each other and laughed like villains
…
***
There was a lot of work to be done to achieve my new goal
.
Fortunately, there were a few things I completed while preparing for my escape
.
Funding Hope Summit
.
Powerful assistant
…
'
The only thing left is the guard
.’
Although Doubled's military prowess was excellent, she still lacked the ability to confront the Imperial Family or the Church in an emergency
.
So I called Andy
.
Entering the room, the boy opened his mouth with an overwhelmed expression
.
“
What type of room is this?
…”
I presented a basket of cookies to him, who murmured in excitement
.
“
All this
“
Andy, who picked up the cookies, looked at me
.
“
But what did you call me for?
…”
“
Andy, do you want to live here?
“
When I asked, Andy dropped the cookies
.
Andy, with his palm outstretched, swallowed several times
.
“
Oh, wait, wait
“
“
huh?
“
“
Since when?
“
“
How long have you liked me? Is this from the moment you gave me the bread?
“
“
What?
“
“
Me, I'm in trouble
.
She's cute, but she's four and I'm thirteen
.
There is a big difference in age
.
I am the malicious person who sees a child as a woman
“
“…”
“
You're really cute, and honestly I've never seen a kid as cute as you, but I'm not a pervert
-“
…
What is he talking about?
“
You must be Persian
“
When I looked at him, Andy asked, his face red as a tomato
“
huh?
“
I'm not canceling the plan to find Zachary
.
However, it was the second best plan
.
“
Even if I find Zachary, he may not be loyal to me
“
But Andy clearly had good feelings for me
…
Although he was weaker than Zachary, his ability was strong enough
.
He was leading a group of four or five years old, and he was leading much stronger adult men
.
The strategy he used at the time
.
The audacity
.
Courage to be in leadership
.
I gave him a very high grade for all of that
.
“
I don't have money to buy horses and weapons
.
Who will accept me as a student?
“
To be a knight, you have to be more than just strong
.
Horses were expensive, and purchasing them was a heavy burden for the common people
.
In addition, they had to purchase a usable weapon, and practice it for years as a student under a knight
.
It must have been a difficult dream for Andy
.
“
I have a lot of money
!
“
Are you really going to use me as a knight?
“
“
Yes, Doppeld will elevate you if you become a knight
“
"
my lady
."
He immediately changed his attitude
.
'
Well, it's a good thing
.
His frivolous attitude suits Doppeld
.’
I nodded contentedly, and Andy said with a firm look
…
“
This is when you swear allegiance, right? I know everything
“
This will be the third time someone has sworn at me, which was stressful at first
.
“
Andy greets Mr
-”
He stopped suddenly and frowned
.
Then he muttered
: “
Isn't that a very common name for a knight?
“
“
Well, I'll change my name as a knight from today on
“
He put his knees on the floor and stared at me
…
“
Knight Zachary greets the master
“
“…
What?
“
I looked at him
.
“
What was that now?
“
“
Zachary, doesn't that name sound just like a knight?
“
I looked at Andy, or Zachary now
.
With a puzzled look on my face
…
'
Really?
'
Is he really Zachary?
But Andy is very weak
!
If Andy is really Zachary, why can't he fight at all?
“
Why didn't you confront my maids last time?
“
“
Because I can't hit a woman
“
“
I cried
“
“
To suit the situation
“
Was it all a hoax?
It's really cool
…
I was so sad when I couldn't find Zachary, but Andy is Zachary
!
However, it wasn't Zachary's fault, so I pressed my forehead to lower my displeasure
.
I called out to Leah
.
“
Leah, teach Zachary how to use a sword
“
“
Is this baby's name Zachary?
“
“
Yes, he changed it
“
"
Understood
."
Leah, who nodded, stroked Zachary and looked at him
.
“
Follow me, I will teach you to use the sword
“
Zachary seemed to wonder why the maid had learned to use a sword, but he followed her
.
And that day Zachary really cried
.
***
“
Better to teach Zachary spears than swords
.
He has talent
“
“
Okay
…”
“
Haha, he's a funny kid
.
He has a great imagination about how a knight should act in front of others
“
Leah, who taught Zachary last week, laughed
:
“
Every day there were a series of surprises
“
I looked at Zachary as he swung the spear with the leader
.
For some reason I was angry
.
But I tried to think positive
.
'
I have two of the four best horsemen in my house
.’
Isik and Zachary
.
As a joke, they said that if the four people came together, half of the empire's power would be powerless
.
I will work hard to grow and use Zachary
.
I made up my mind
.
To be the best knight, it seemed like it would take years to raise him properly
.
So I asked Seria to make a deal with the mercenaries
.
Dango was a good mercenary who ran missions in my previous life as a beggar
.
'
First of all, I have to raise him
.’
The more money, the better, and money is needed that can be used inconspicuously
.
Until I grow somewhat, there will be a lot of time left before I can take over, so I have to get along well with my family
.
After I decided not to build a wall for the Doppeld people, it turned out that the Doppeld people were ordinary father and brothers
.
Just a normal family who wants to spend time with their daughter and tries to take care of her
.
'
I finally have a family that doesn't hate me
.’
My heart was beating with joy when I thought that
.
I was covering my cheek when I heard a knock
.
“
The master is looking for you
“
'
my dad?
'
I nodded yes and followed the maid
.
When I arrived in the room, I saw Isik, who was on the sofa, and Henry, who was reading a book
.
Henry smiled at me and said
:
“
Good morning
“
Isik waved too
.
“
Did you sleep well?
“
I said
: “
Hello
“
Also, I sat between Henry and Isik
.
“
Did the Duke call you too?
“
Isik nodded
.
"
Yes
."
At that time, my father came into the living room with Nous
.
There were three small boxes in Nos's hand
.
When Dad sat down, Nos placed three boxes on the table
.
“
Open them
“
We opened the three boxes with a curious look
