In This Life, I Will Raise You Well, Your Majesty!

ropped the flagpoles on the designated locations and came back.

 

The commander of the knights of the Marquis family asked a question after checking the birds that have disappeared while spreading their wings as if to praise them in front of Elisha.

 

“Can we move to the next location?”

 

Elisha nodded her head.

 

Those who had gathered moved in unison.

 

They’ve done it several times over two days, so everyone got used to it.

 

Although it was embarrassing to call the Vecchia Plain a ‘plain’, it was still one of the best places in the West.

 

Elisha had no choice but to divide the work.

 

Not ‘a lot at once’, but ‘a few small times’.

 

The mana consumption during this time was rather small, but it took quite a while to move here and there.

 

But it was something she had to do anyway, and it was a lot of fun for Elisha to see the tiny head moving around in the carriage.

 

Benjamin’s eyes are fixed on Leon’s face as if observing Leon was more interesting than the book Leon read to him.

 

“Haa.”

 

Vera sighed.

 

“Are you going back to the Duchy after finishing work at the March?”

 

This much was enough to show the new stand of the Duke towards the 2nd Empress to the outside.

 

The additional reason was that the two territories they have to walk past from the March would be overwhelmed just to welcome the guests of Barossa.

 

“That’s what I heard.”

Vera was worried that her son, who was indifferent even to his own mother, would be separated from the 3rd Prince, the first person he was obsessed with.

 

“Now is probably not the time to worry about him.”

 

“Huh?”

 

“You better take care of yourself and your husband first.
If you go back like this, that bastard… Emm, do you think Patrick and his wife will stay still?”

 

There was a strange word in the middle, but Vera shook her head.

 

Because such a word didn’t go well with this precious person.

  

 

With such a serious face.

 

During the times when she was at Duchy, she had tried to be as courageous as she could, but that was not enough.

 

Vera looked at the 2nd Empress.

 

She had heard many stories from her husband, Jonathan, about the 2nd Empress.

 

Even in a situation where she needed to face something that was greater than she was, the 2nd Empress protected the 3rd Prince and made her stand, standing tall.

 

Vera was not confident enough.

 

Still, she somehow wanted to keep her child safe, and she had to.

 

“There is nothing I can do to help right now.
If I tried to use my hand, it is highly likely to backfire.”

 

Vera nodded her head up and down broadly, as if she was well aware of it too.

 

The gaze she had just sent wasn’t to ask for help, but just to think about what she would have done if she were the 2nd Empress.

 

“Nevertheless, I will add a few words.”

 

As the unexpected voice continued, Vera raised her face.

 

“Never give the other person what they want.
However, if you have to give it, don’t give it easily.
And when it’s time to give, don’t give what your opponent wants.”

 

“That is difficult.”

 

“There are other things that are more difficult.”

 

“Huh?”

 

“No matter how urgent the situation, we must not forget what is real and why we are standing there.”

 

“…”

 

“If you take something important from a child in the name of for the sake of the child, you will end up regretting it.
Perhaps not all of them will, but at least I did regret it.”

 

“But, it’s important to Benjamin.”

 

Vera muttered with a tone implying that she couldn’t get a sense of Elisha’s words.

 

Elisha tilted her face to the side and spitted out.

 

“Why don’t you think that it is you or your husband? Your absence.
Your sacrifice.
A father’s embrace to hold and a mother’s lips to rub against his cheek.”

“That…”

 

“I don’t understand either.
In fact, even I, don’t know everything.
I’m not good at it either.
But just because he didn’t express it, don’t think that it wasn’t there from the beginning.
Maybe it’s because he doesn’t know how, or maybe it’s because you loved him so much that he didn’t feel the need to express himself.”

 

Benjamin’s tearing the West apart in the past may be largely due to continued abuse.

 

Elisha thought that it must be revenge for the unexpected death of his parents.

 

Because, there is no way a person without emotions can go crazy.

 

His madness burnt everything and ate his enemies so violently that it even ruined himself!

 

“Really?”

 

“That’s not something I can tell you.
I was just talking about the possibility.
You must have your answer.”

 

“Ah… ”

 

Vera nodded her head in understanding.

 

“You have to be strong.
And when your effort doesn’t work, and when danger comes, so dangerous that you think it might be your last, go to the Heron and find Rozie.
The Heron’s branches are all over the Empire, so it shouldn’t be difficult.
After calling out Rozie to talk about the jewel mine, give her my name.
Ask her to help you and say that I will pay the price later.
I will give you my hand one time.”

 

Elisha mentioned Rozenin’s pseudonym there, along with the top secret of Count Gotham.

 

It was nice enough to put their situation simply as “unfortunate”…

 

Both Jonathan, who did not create his own force in order not to cause a riot with his brother, who was always suspicious of taking his place, and Vera, who had no place to rely on, had no place to ask for help after Elisha left the duchy.

 

Rozenin was resourceful, so she would get the job done.

 

Even if there was a problem, many forces would want them to the extent that Vera and her family can become a weakness of the Western noble family.

 

Rozenin was harmless, and at least Vera and her family’s lives could be saved, so this was the safest suggestion.

 

“I can’t thank you enough, Your Majesty.”

 

Vera bowed her head saying thank you over and over again.

 

Elisha, waving her hand as if telling her to stop, turned her gaze out of the carriage window.

 

After a while, the carriage stopped and Elisha’s next schedule began.

 

Elisha called the water birds and sent it away to find the veins.

 

The day after tomorrow, she will leave the March.

 

There are now two territories left, the Eyim County and the Syuphl Barony.

 

Elisha’s aim was to escape the high-ranking noble families, because once they touch her, they can get four more months out of the harshness for nothing.

 

Will she be able to return to Barossa after she fulfills her responsibilities safely?

 

Several faces naturally popped up in Elisha’s head.

 

Their poisonous eyes as well.

 

“Hmm.”

 

It didn’t look like it would be easy.
