    Aegina Kingdom, Summer Palace .

    There is a middle-aged man in front of me who was called by Selene . His lower belly protrudes greatly, and the tip of his nose is oily . The clothes he wears are high-quality, so he is obviously rich .

    “I’ll introduce you, this person … um …”“Taki Jitakis, a slave trader . ”

    Abraham near Selene responds instead . Abraham acts accustomed to being a follower .

    On the other hand, the introduced slave merchant, Taki Jitakis, stands up with exaggerated gestures .

    “Oh, are you Baron Yuki?”

    He speaks to me intimately .

    “Ah . ”“I have something to request . ”

    I didn’t miss the momentary unpleasant glint in Taki’s eyes .

    (Kukuku, the little girl doesn’t know how to bargain . )That’s the face .

    Apparently he asked Selene to make an inquiry because he wants to negotiate or trade with me . Selene didn’t get rid of him, so she doesn’t seem to dislike this .

    “So what’s the story?”“No, no, it’s an honour for me to speak with illustrious baron Yuki —”“Pretentious statements are nice, but I prefer speaking straightforwardly . ”

    Taki bunches his eyebrows . Honestly speaking, it’s troublesome . What is sad, I have to talk to this fat guy .

    Let’s love Selene later .

    “The excitement of meeting a general is the same . Sorry, I just uttered what I thought from the bottom of my heart . ”

    He’s too clingy, I’ll go mad .

    “In fact, I want you to delay the liberation of slaves a little further . ”

    Well, that’s right . Of course, there is no reason to listen to that .

    Taki request was immediately rejected and he was kicked out .

    ☆

    After kicking out Taki, in the reception area of the summer palace . Selene listens to me, snuggled up to me .

    “So, was that okay?”“Oh, slaves will be released . That’s already decided . ”“Is that so . ”“Ah . ”“But the problem is still there . ”“Abraham?”

    Selene is surprised and opens her eyes as Abraham is standing not too far away .

    “What is the problem?”“Currently, 90% of slaves are trying to be sold . Most of them are sold as slaves because their parents cannot provide enough food and they cannot procure it either . ”“Hmmmmmm . ”

    Listening to Abraham’s explanation, Selene, a serious student who became completely honest after the Aegina’s Incident .

    “Simply releasing slaves doesn’t solve it . Rather, it either leaves them in poverty or drives them into more darkness . ”

    Selene preaches with kind teacher’s eyes, but I’ve been questioned with strict eyes .

    “What will you do?”

    I thought it was coming . Somewhere I thought someone would notice it .

    I thought Rika was my favorite, Delfina was my opponent, and Iris Ohana .

    I didn’t expect Abraham to ask me – but I have the answer .

    “From this conclusion, we’re giving money away to children . ”“That’s only a temporary solution . ”“Don’t run ahead, you’ve come to the conclusion . ”

    Abraham’s gaze becomes increasingly severe .

    “Do you know church school?”“Solonism, that is what the current pope started . ”“Oh, the same as that, start a school that lets kids go . ”“Do you want them to go to school with financial assistance? They’ll take the money and run away . ”“That’s impertinent . ”

    Abraham crisps up . Well, I understand that this is common sense for him .

    “You can create a salary . ”“Umm, arh?”“Oh, if your kids can go to school and get paid, they will have to go . ”“That’s … Umm ……”

    Abraham, who is worried, seems to be unable to follow the first proposal . After that, he’s worried for a while …

    “Sure… It may be effective . ”

    He agreed .

    “Children’s education is important . Especially at this time . ”“But that is not easy . ”“Why isn’t it Abraham?”“A budget is needed to cover the large number of children . If this policy is implemented, the population will increase and the degree of education will increase . ”

    After all, he thinks quickly . I consulted with Althea and immediately understood the aim of the proposal I brought in after arranging a case that worked well in the real world .

    “Isn’t there enough money?”“Yes, frankly . ”“If so, use the royal budget . ”“Eh……”

    Abraham has a blank look in response to Selene’s offer .

    “My Highness, that is …”“The royal budget can afford this . ”“That’s okay . ”“If so, use it . ”“Are you sure?”“Yeah! Because studying is important, because . ”

    Selene says with a troubled face .

    “If everyone couldn’t study and looked like the me of the past, the country would be in dire straights . ”

    Hey . This is surprising . Is Selene really doing this?

    “… That’s right . ”“Okay, the story is over . Abraham, do that . Good Selene . ”“Yes! Please Abraham . ”“I understand … leave it to me . ”

    He looks down and bites his lower lip, but the next moment, he loses his hesitation and raises his face . If you have a budget, you’ll never get lost .

    “Okay, Selene, come with me . ”“Yeah! What for?”“Sex . ”“Eh? Is it okay?”

    Selene is confused with a happy face .

    “I want to do it because you are a good woman now . ”“Yup!”

    I happily hug Selene whose cheeks are dyed, walk out of the sitting room, take her to a nearby room, she is so cute .
