Lombardy's office in the mansion.

Heavy air that seemed to be unable to breathe was filling the interior of the office like a crush.

It was a feeling of desolation that the culprit would want to turn back and run out again as soon as he stepped into this place.

It was Lulak Lombardy, sitting at the desk in the mansion offices, creating such a terrifying atmosphere.

Lulak, who was nicknamed 'The Lion of Lombardy' when he was younger, grew deeper and heavier as he got older.

Now, he was angry like a thunderbolt, but when he was deeply troubled like today, the overbearing appearance reappeared.

Lulak was looking at the statue of Natalia, his wife, on the window.

It was a bust given by her granddaughter, Florentia, as a present.

He always enjoyed it with longing and affection for his wife, but it was a little different nowadays.

"Natalia..."

Lulak gave the deceased wife a low name.

"We should have been a bit more strict parents."

Viese was the first son of both couples.

On top of that, there was Shananet, the eldest daughter, but since childhood, she was a child who couldn't reach his hands.

For this reason, Viese, who has a child-like accident and a naughty side, took the couple's affection, especially Natalia's attention.

And that was the problem.

It was too late when he realized that something was wrong with Viese's growing figure.

The Lambrew Empire was mostly a society of thorough first-born succession.

Viese recognized it at a very early age.

However, from generation to generation, Lombardy was a family that gave priority to the individual's abilities over the firstborn and succeeded to the main office.1

As Lulak got older and his children grew older, his worries deepened.

If he had the right children, he wanted him to take over the Lord's job and take a break from tomorrow, but there was no right person.

Not long ago, he showed this feeling to her eldest daughter, Shananet, but her daughter's answer was cold.

"I've seen how many things my father carries on his back, the longest I've seen among the brothers. And I don't intend to live that kind of life. Father."

Lulak was forced to laugh bitterly and nod his head.

No matter how much is given, if you don't want it, it becomes a terrible chair with thorns.

Not too long ago, Viese made another big mistake.

Viese, who is in charge of managing Lombardy-owned real estate in the central region of the Empire, sold the land to a nobleman close to him at an excessively low price.

The problem was that the land had been told that iron ore had been buried steadily.

Knowing that Viese sold the land for his external influence.

Fortunately, from the beginning, it was considered a small mine, so the financial damage was not so great.

However, it was only this time that Lulak knew for sure.

That Viese can forsake Lombardy's interests for his own personal gain.2

When the thoughts reached that point, it was time to finally see a big sigh out of Lulak's mouth.

Thutk.

The sound of a small knock tickled his ears.

"Who are you?"

Lulak asked at an unfamiliar knock.

"Grandfather! This is Tia!"

"...Tia?"

A cheerful, loud voice replied outside the door.

Surprised, Lulak got up from his seat and opened the door directly.

"Grandpa!"

Florentia, whose face looked like a flower on both cheeks, smiled wide as she looked at Lulak.

"Hey, our Tia is here!"

And at the same time, the heavy air that was squeezing the office and Lulak flew away in no time.

He hugged the little granddaughter who ran in and hugged his leg, laughing at Lulak.

"Kaah!"

A smile on Lulak's face continued at the sound of Florentia's laughter.

It was hard to think he is the same person who had been serious a while ago.

"Are you busy with your jobs grandfather?"

Florentia asked.

"I am not very busy. Why is it happening?"

To Lulak's question, Florentia energetically replied.

"Please write a letter of recommendation, Grandpa!"

"Letter of recommendation?"

"Yeah!"

Lulak tilted his head for a moment, then put Florentia down on the sofa.

When Gallahan and her granddaughter visited the office together, Florentia always had the place to sit.

After a while, cookies and juice were placed on the table.

Looking at it for a moment, Florentia quickly bites into a large cookie.

It was too casual for coming to receive a letter of recommendation from Lord.

'It's an eight-year-old child, to know what.'

Lulak bruised at himself and smiled at his granddaughter.

"Is it delicious?"

"Yes! It's sweet!"

Lulak stroked Florentia's head in an unspoiled appearance.

"Yes, write a letter of recommendation?"

Probably, it seemed that she didn't know well, but it wasn't a simple thing to come and ask for a letter of recommendation from the Lord.

Receiving a letter of recommendation stamped with the seal of Lord, in a word, meant receiving full support from Lombardy.

It also said that if anything happened to him, Lombardy would intervene.

"It couldn't be yours, who was it for?"

"It's Estira! She is a student of Dr. O'Malley, and she says she wants to go to the Imperial Academy to do research. Herbology!"

"Then she should get a recommendation from Dr. O'Malley."

"Dr. O'Malley has already given a recommendation letter to another no..., another person...."

Probably, Florentia was looking for the grandfather who would do this purely because he wanted to help the child.
