Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

……

Ahem, I’ve gone off topic.

In short, after carefully examining the texture of Kyrie Irvine's buttocks.

The maid came to tell me it was time to eat.

With anticipation, Gilead and I entered the restaurant.

In an instant.

There was thunderous applause.

Everyone in the mansion had gathered there, including Sholos, Phyllis, and Hilda.

The restaurant was beautifully decorated, and although it wasn't as grand as Alice's birthday party, it was very cozy.

This isn't some fancy aristocratic ball; it's a birthday party prepared just for me.

Happy birthday, Rudy!

Alice, dressed in a bright red dress, rushed over and shoved a large bouquet of flowers into my arms.

I accepted the flowers.

It's probably because of the pollen.

No water magic is needed.

My eyes are already wet.

I reached out and hugged Alice, choking back tears as I whispered in her ear:

"Alice, thank you... I'm sorry..."

I am sorry.

Everyone was clearly happy for my birthday.

But I have to watch you all die.

Tormented by his conscience, tears streamed down his face.

I will not be soft-hearted.

Because I am Rudius Grerat.

A man who, having experienced betrayal and madness, came to the realization of giving up everything.

……

After a farce.

Alice presented me with a birthday present.

An expensive staff inlaid with magic stones.

Alice handed it to me herself.

The arrogant water dragon king.

"Long time no see, old friend."

I stroked it, a kind smile like that of an old man spreading across my face.

--split line--

A turning point is coming.

Group number: 678950409

I've created a group for those who can't speak freely due to level restrictions. Remember to change your nickname so I know who you are.

22. Phyllis's proposal

The arrogant water dragon king.

The magic wand that accompanies me through life.

Together with the gray rat robe and the Lokishi underwear, it is known as the Rudeus three-piece set.

These are legendary artifacts. If you use these three items to summon during the Holy Grail War, there's a high chance you'll summon mine.

Children of Fuyuki, please remember this!

……

Let’s get back to the present topic.

Once the party started, Alice talked non-stop, like a machine gun.

How was the dish? How was it when I bought the wand...?

Then, because he was so excited, he actually fell asleep while talking.

So strong.

Even though I was actively trying to find topics to talk about, I still managed to fall asleep. I can't understand the logic of an idiot at all.

Kyrie Irvine carried Alice back to her dorm in a princess carry.

Then, Soros and Hilda also came back to the party.

These two people.

One of them roared that he wanted to go to war with Nottos.

One of them is insisting that Alice marry me.

Phyllis dragged him out.

My gaze was mostly fixed on Hilda.

Well, she truly deserves to be chosen as a wife by the Grellat family.

The fullness of her breasts is quite alarming.

……

After the birthday party ended, only Phyllis and I were left in the restaurant.

Phyllis quietly drank her wine.

Although he was the son of the military general Sauros, he had the typical aristocratic style and moved with great elegance.

Although very unhappy.

But the life of an aristocrat is indeed a hundred times better than that of an adventurer.

He's an ambitious and patient guy.

In the competition for the next head of the company, he and James were neck and neck, and it could be said that they were evenly matched.

But in the end, they still lost.

It wasn't because of any conspiracy or scheme that we lost; we simply lost.

After all, James was six years older than Phyllis.

That being said, even in a rural place like Roya in the territory of Fetoia, Phyllis never gave up on making a comeback.

"So, how about you marry Alice and together we seize the Boreas family? Or should I go and tie my daughter's hands up right now and put her on your bed?"

Phyllis said with a smile.

Although there was a joking element to it.

But I'm pretty sure he'll do it if I nod.

That's what nobility is all about.

“I’ll take care of the usurpation. You just need to sit there. Or we can attach other girls to you.”

Phyllis began to make serious suggestions.

I fell into thought.

Indeed...

This, it seems, can also be considered a path.

If I become a nobleman, I can protect Alice, Silphie, and Loki.

Moreover, I'm not exaggerating.

With my assistance, Phyllis's usurpation plan will surely succeed.

Because that's just how strong I am.

Swordsmen may not be able to exert an overwhelming deterrent effect in war, but mages can.

Not to mention a magician of my level.

He became Rudeus Notos Grellat, then seized Notos, and later, through his connection with Sylphie, joined Princess Ariel, helping her seize power and become a prominent figure in the Kingdom of Asura.

A feasible path instantly flashed into my mind.

……

I declined Phyllis's offer.

It's not that I don't want to work hard for Alice, but the nobility is something that disgusts me.

I can't imagine what it would be like to be an aristocrat.

It's also unimaginable that Loki was bound by her noble status, becoming a caged bird.

"Is that so? Well, even if it doesn't involve the Boreas family, you can still do whatever you want to Alice. Your daughter has no responsibility; she'll come back after she gets married anyway. If you can take her in, that would be the best outcome."

Phyllis smiled quietly.

indeed.

Now that I've slept with Alice, I won't face any consequences on the surface.
