First, Leolde asked Barbaroto to call the knights who   were working as scullery maids . There were five knights in the scullery.

The number of knights stationed in Ze'at is two hundred. 

"I'd like to ask you a few questions. Do any of you want to be a civil servant?"

The five of them looked at each other at Leorle's question. They didn't know what to say. You can't quit being a knight if you're suddenly  became  civil servant.

So the five of  them looked at each other, unable to answer.

(Hmmm ...... response is not good. You don't want to be my subordinate after all?)

Leolde, who had a low self-esteem, had made the mistake of them  not wanting to be his subordinate.

However, the Knights of city have a high opinion of Leolde . In the monster panic, he fought on the front lines and led the fight to an end without a single casualty, which earned him the trust of the Knights.

"Um, why us?"'

One of the five men raised his hand and asked Leolde.

"Hmm. To be honest, we are short on manpower. Also, I'm trying to improve the Order. Well, to put it simply, I'm going to dispatch people to the knight order who can do the chores."

In the first place, there are 200 knights stationed in Ze'at. It will be tough for five people to support that many people.

"It's a great , but we don't get paid ......, do we?"

"Yeah, I guess so. But don't worry. I'll pay .

"What? The lord himself?"

"Hmm. If  I didn't, no one would want to do the knights' chores."

"Yes, but is that okay?"

"Of course. And I have full control of Ze'at now. I can also intervene in the Order. I'll take care of the rest of the paperwork."

And now... You've heard this story, don't you want to be a civil servant?"

I"t's not a good way to put it, but they the third or fourth sons  of a nobleman who can't inherit the family name, and  they in a weak position. I don't think that's a bad thing. ......"

Leolde also felt uncomfortable saying it, and continued to talk as if she was looking away from the five of  them (. I'm not sure I'm going to get a good response from them  if I say it like this,) he thought , scratching his head.

"I'm sorry. Forget it  ."

"I'll do it. No, please let me do it."

"What?"

The silence continued for a while, and Leolde was about to give up and end the conversation. However, one of the scullery maids ran for office, saying he wanted to be a civil servant.

Startled, Leolde couldn't help but ask back."

"You sure? I don't know if I should say this, but being a civil servant is hard work. You'll have to deal with a mountain of paperwork every day. To be honest, it's hard work. It's not easy you know?"

"What are you so confused about, ......?"

"Shut up, Isabele!'

So, I'm going to ask you again, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes. I've been working as a scullery maid for a long time because I'm certainly not gifted with a sword. skills   So I couldn't help but hate myself for not being able to do anything. But I thought that if I could serve as a civil servant under  sir  Leolde, I could make people and my family proud of me!

(That's a solid opinion! (owever, it's no good just having motivation.  I've said it myself, but I need to take a test).

(I was able to confirm his personality, but I don't know his abilities. )So, LeoLde decided to have the candidates take the test.

As expected, it is not good to orally select a civil servant who is in charge of Ze'at, the duke's domain. LeoLde's decision was the right one.

Thanks to the candidacy of one of them, the other four candidates also came forward, and  he was very satisfied. Whether they would be able to do it or not, however, would depend on the test.

Once he returned home, he prepared the questions for the  test  and decided to have the five take it later.

"Master Leolde. I understand that you are hiring miscellaneous staff fpr the knight order, but where are you going to send the people to do the miscellaneous work r?"

Isabelle posed the obvious question to Leorde. Leorde raises the corner of his mouth with a grin and answers.

"About that, Isabelle. I want you to go to the knight order with newly hired servants. When you have finished training the newcomers to some extent, I want you to return here."

"What? Master Leolde-. I've been told by the Princess to serve under you , but I have no obligation to go that far."

."You're the only one who can do it.

"Are you planning to use me as an outlet for your sexual desires?"

Isabelle, hugging her own body with both hands, trembles like a weak maiden. However, Leolde is not heartbroken because he is sure that Isabelle will turn on  him .

"I'm sure you'll be fine. But the rest of us might be in danger for sure. There are a lot of noblemen who are knights, so there may be some who will use their power to get to  me.

"Lik master  Leolde-, right?

"Oh yeah, ...... is so annoying!"

"That's a great comeback, Master.

"Thank you. Well, that's one thing I'm worried about, but you'll  be fine."

"May I decline?"

"Then I will report you to  Her Highness and send you back to the capital. We know that you are a secret agent under the direct control of the royal family."

"...... You are a man to be reckoned with. Thus Isabelle, let's try to improve the order of the knights according to the orders of  master Leolde-.

"Thank you."

"By the way, will there be a reward for a job ?"

"If you hadn't said that, I would have thought of it!"

"I'm afraid I was careless."

Isabelle followed Leolde's orders and took a few servants with her to the Order."

When Leolde saw that Isabelle was gone, he wrote something  in his  secret notebook.
