Oh.
I see, same as Rinia and Purusena.
Coming from a faraway land, they come all the way here to study human society.
"Certainly I will stand at the top of this school. Even that Norn girl, will become my woman."
No, that’s something I can’t let you to do.
No matter what your circumstances, I won’t let you have Norn for such a reason.
This Onii-san won’t permit it.
"Good, you have that good look in your eyes, come with me."
"Ha....?"
Possibly, that might have sounded like I was trying to recruit him as my underling.
Now come to think of it, I don't have any underlings...
But, somehow I can feel some eyes looking in our direction with envying looks.
Before he does something to interfere with Norn...
... In this situation, as her brother, what should I do?
Although he isn't aggressively going after Norn right now, somehow it still feels like I need to do something.
But, helping Norn too much is unnecessary.
It would seem like I’m being overprotective.
Norn is probably fairly well protected in this school.
Although Raifold is a village chief candidate, he shouldn't have any political power in this country...
Norn has her helpers, and her bodyguards [Fanclub] at her disposal.
Although I still feel like I should handle this business myself.
What should I do?
"Leave that guy alone."
Then, another person's voice rang out and joined us.
Somebody help put an end to this!
With some hope in my chest I looked back, half-expecting to see a familiar face...
"My name is Mii-Nall, son of village chief of Bii-nall village. A dwarven village."
Who is this guy?
It looks like he is also a freshman.
His attitude is so high, but his height is only half of us.
No matter how you look at it, he has the face of an adult, he even has a stocky mustache.
He's obviously of the Dwarf race.
"How naive of you thinking that there is only one special student...? Don’t make me laugh. I too am special students of this term!"
Ah, that was unexpected.
Looking down at that dwarf face, Raifold was surprised.
"Oh, isn’t that Mii...!"
"Long time no see, Rai!"
Apparently, they seem to know each other.
I guess the elven and dwarven villages are close to each other.
So even their village chiefs' sons are acquainted.
"Well, so this year's special students are the two of us?"
"Nope, that’s also wrong. Gufufu."[19]
That's a unique laugh, I wonder if the Mii-Nal lineage has a unique way to laugh?
There's someone hiding behind Mii-Nal's shadow.
A small boy about the same size as Mii-nal, another Dwarf race?
His race... No, that child is different.
He is probably from the human race, a youth from the human race.
His age is about seven.
His face is familiar, he looks like someone... from the Asura lineage.
"Hey, introduce yourself."
The boy introduced himself with a trembling voice.
“My, my name is, Grannel. Grannel-Zafin-Asura. I’m the second son of Asura Kingdom's first prince, Grabell-Zafin Asura "
I was perplexed.
Grabell's son.
This boy...?
Why is he here?
I wonder, is it for revenge? For that incident in Asura Kingdom?
Is he here on some assassination mission... this late?
Why did he send such a small kid?
"That, father lost in the political game, we are in dangerous situation..."
Oh!
I got it.
Grabell, in the off-chance that Ariel would assassinate his sons, he sent them out of the country to escape.
Hey come to think of it, this is the second son, I wonder if Grabell's eldest son is in another country?
....No, it’s different.
This country, Ranoa Kingdom, is full of Ariel's supporters.
Yet he was sent to this country, so he might be some kind of hostage for Ariel.
In this world it looks like there's a custom for sons to greet people while saying their father's name. I wonder if he doesn't care about the consequences?
"I see, we are alike. People from various places chased from their villages for some reason, and now we three meet each other in this place "
"I don’t have any particular reason to get chased-out... Because I am only third in inheritance..."
"Okay, it’s good. Everyone has their own circumstances. You must have heard some rumor?"
"You too....!"
