Editor: Lord Immortal

But if that was the case…

"Why do they call grandpa 'Teacher Merlin' rather than 'Lord Merlin'?" (s.h.i.+n)

"I wasn't good at teaching others, so at that time, it was Melinda who trained the children." (Merlin)

"Really? What a surprise! But you taught me back then." (s.h.i.+n)

Grandma sighed.

"When someone asked your grandpa for advice, your grandpa would just tell him/her, 'Gather a lot of magic power, and then release it after imagining it properly.'" (Melinda)

"Grandpa?" (s.h.i.+n)

"Hahaha. Everyone was young and lively back then." (Merlin)

Grandpa looked away shyly.

"But it was Lord Grandpa who taught s.h.i.+n. Sure enough, grandpa is powerful." (Cecily)

Cecily supported him.

Grandpa was moved by her statement.

"Thank you for your concern, Miss Cecily. I started to teach s.h.i.+n when he was still a baby. I then gradually learned how to guide children." (Merlin)

"Well, I see." (Cecily)

Is grandpa becoming slightly better at instructing others a recent thing?

Compared with that, he seemed to have said something rather interesting before.

"Did you just say "children"? Wasn't Uncle Dis the only one traveling with you?" (s.h.i.+n)

"At first, only Desheum followed us. But later we found another two during the trip. We trained while travelling." (Merlin)

"Really?" (s.h.i.+n)

"I've nothing more to say about the trip. Let's talk about the birthday party." (Melinda)

"I guess you're right. As s.h.i.+n has told you just now, we want to hold the party in your hall." (August)

"OK. No problem. What else?" (Melinda)

"I think we will celebrate on a large scale because it will be a party jointly organized by three families. We'll have to carefully choose who we want to invite." (August)

"Do not invite guests." (Melinda)

"What?" (s.h.i.+n)

Grandma opposed August's idea.

What's wrong with inviting guests?

"Don't worry, s.h.i.+n. Only the n.o.bles are asked to invite guests, but we are ordinary people." (Melinda)

"I see. That's great." (s.h.i.+n)

"If you insist on inviting guests, you can just as well save your breath. Do you still think you should invite guests?" (Melinda)

But Cecily and Maria were n.o.bles. Wouldn't it be bad not to invite guests?

"I don't mind it at all as I don't like mingling with so many strangers." (Cecily)

"And it's really troublesome to entertain them if you don't like them." (Maria)

Although Cecily and Maria didn't care, what about their families' views?

"Won't Mr. Cecil be embarra.s.sed? Is that OK?" (s.h.i.+n)

"Even grandma is opposed to inviting guests. Everybody will understand us." (Cecily)

"Yes. n.o.body will dare complain about it." (Maria)

Grandma has a great influence in our country.

"So let's invite our close friends and relatives only. No other guests will be invited." (s.h.i.+n)
