Chapter 386

Beatrice 3

Published: 9 October 2023

 

After giving a general explanation, Beatrice-chan requested a visit to Nihon.

…well, she couldn't stand hearing so many stories about cooking and sweets from everyone…

 

However, even though she was included in the group, Beatrice-chan had a major weakness.

That's right, she couldn't speak any language other than here.

She couldn't speak Japanese, English, or the language of the New Continent.

She always had to rely on me, Sabine-chan, or Colette-chan to translate.

And she couldn't enjoy anime, manga, or novels either.

 

No, Beatrice-chan was definitely not stupid.

On the contrary, among the many noble daughters, she was the only one who was able to have a normal conversation with Sabine-chan when she was a little girl, before she learned how to "Adapt to the other person."

So, if she took the time to study, she would be able to memorize it properly.

 

...But Beatrice-chan was not an extraordinary genius like the little devil Sabine-chan, and she was not like the slightly, no, rather abnormal Colette-chan who accompanied me and studied languages ​​almost without sleep in order to be of use to me, and who had the former POW (Prisoners of War) sailors who taught her the language begging him, "Please, please sleep, please rest!"

…yes, former POWs had directly complained to me… "Please, let that girl rest, let her sleep"…

So I used my authority as an employer to limit the amount of time she could study...

 

Besides, Beatrice-chan didn't use it every day either.

In the future, Beatrice-chan was likely to marry a member of the royal family or a high-ranking noble, most likely an eldest child who would inherit the title. She had learned not only etiquette and social skills, but also memorized the names, families, factions of the aristocrats in this country and surrounding countries, composition, location and characteristics of each territory, financial situation and special products, personality of the lord and heir, languages of other countries, and many other things.

 

The noble's wife is not just a decoration.

She's her husband's comrade and a support worker.

If she couldn't do that, she would have no choice but to settle for the wife, concubine, or mistress of a baron, baronet, or knightly family, who had little international activity or interaction between factions.

 

Ah, Marquis BOOZESU and IRISUSAMA have said that they will not let BEATORISUCHAN marry off to another family, and I agree with that, huh?

Marquis Bozes was probably thinking of acquiring a title similar to that of a viscount and giving it to Beatrice-chan to marry her.

Even if it was a small fief with a deficit, a noble was still a noble.

 

There's a way to leave the territory to the magistrate so Beatrice-chan and her husband spent time in Bozes territory and concentrate on running the company, or they could ask the king and receive a territory adjacent to Bozes territory.

For the current feudal lord, I would like him to change his territory to a better one, or paid some money…

It was not possible to buy or sell the territory entrusted by the country without permission, but if it was ordered by the king then it would be fine. In order to avoid the resentment of the previous lord and the people, they would provide sufficient exchange conditions that are advantageous to the other side…

 

Well, it's hard to turn down a request from the King, the rising star of the Bozes family, and Lightning Archpriestess!

But, by doing those three people a great favor, they would give him various favors from then on. For a weak nobleman living in the countryside on the outskirts of the country, maybe this must be an incredibly good deal that he would want to jump at.

The temple forces would probably support him, too, since this would be much better than if Beatrice-chan were to marry royalty from another country and leave the country...

If the Archbishop or someone like that said to the previous lord, "You handed over your territory to the Great Saint. What a loyal and pious servant you are! God is impressed with your actions!", he'd be killed, ...no, no, he would be liked, probably. It wouldn't even make Beatrice-chan shed pearly tears, hahaha!

Beatrice-chan was not only the beloved daughter of the Bozes family, but also had the position of being the owner of the Beatrice Company, the title of Great Saint, although it was not official, and a fairly strong connection between me and Sabine-chan. There must be many nobles who would like to send their third or fourth sons for these purposes.

It's already more of an arrangement than a selection… I was jealous!!

 

However, that didn't mean she didn't have to study in order to marry into royalty or a high-ranking noble family. I didn't know how things would turn out in the future. If so, we should prepare as much as possible to survive any situation. That's why Beatrice-chan had received the best education and had been polished so that she could shine to the fullest, like the finest jewel…

 

…well, in conclusion, Beatrice-chan didn't have enough time to learn Japanese, English, and the languages of the New Continent…

That’s it, that’s it! "We don't have time!!" That's it.

A maiden's time was short…

 

…well, I confirmed it with the person herself.

Should she give up on learning those languages and rely on the three of us as interpreters? Or should she choose one and study it?

Then…

 

"Ja-pan-ese! I'm going to study Ja-pan-ese!"

Beatrice-chan answered immediately with sparkling eyes. …it seemed like there was some preparation from Sabine-chan in advance.

 

Well, if you don't understand Japanese, you can't enjoy anime or manga. Naturally, it meant that she couldn't understand Sabine-chan's jokes, puns, and trivia in Japanese, and I couldn't talk about my favorite anime and manga either. So, it's only natural that Sabine-chan would act behind the scenes to make her choose Japanese if she had to choose between Japanese, English, and a New Continent language. Perhaps she was telling us all the delicious stories about Japan.

 

And, as Beatrice-chan said she wanted to go to Japan at all costs, I decided to take her to Japan as an apology for all the things I had done up until that point. I kept a low profile and left all the explanations and interpretation to Sabine-chan. If I thought about the relationship between the two of them and what had happened up until now, there's no other choice. Of course, Sabine-chan was happy to guide Beatrice-chan.

 

Beatrice-chan's first visit to Japan included omurice and sweets at a familiar department store cafeteria, an amusement park, a 100-yen shop, a clothing store, a yakiniku restaurant (a high-end place), and much more.

She was frozen in the underwear section of a department store. Well, Sabine-chan and Colette-chan were also frozen in front of the underwear department when they first arrived.

 

At that time, I was surprised that even Sabine-chan could freeze… And Colette-chan.

You're from the countryside, and you never wore pants until you came to the Yamano family's house!

…well, Japanese women's underwear is more erotic than no panties…

 

Well, now we live in an era where there were automatic translators that could fit in your pocket. Even if you master only Japanese, you wouldn't have much trouble. Furthermore, it seemed unlikely that Beatrice-chan would be left behind on Earth alone.

Yeah, I guess I should be careful not to push Beatrice-chan too hard and let her study Japanese slowly…


…there was a time when I thought like that too.

 

Wow, how quickly Beatrice-chan's Japanese has improved!

Oh, so Sabine-chan showed you a collection of highlight scenes from classic anime and you couldn't help wanting to know what the characters were saying, so you studied until late every night?

Multiplication between male characters? Is this an educational anime or something?

 

Anyway, it wasn't long before Beatrice-chan was able to speak broken Japanese. ...While I was struggling during English classes that with in middle and high school.

What on earth was that…? Damn you geniuses, talented people, and hard workers…
