Chapter 104

We have arrived at the Ruven House at last.

「Welcome home, Botchan 」

When we entered the Ruven House following after Wald-sama, something shocking happened.

A man wearing a past his middle age wearing a tail coat with tightly combed down hair called Wald-sama “Botchan” when greeting him. Botchan! Wald-sama is Botchan! T, that doesn’t suit him at all, does it~

「Oy, Ivan. Don’t I always tell you to stop calling me Botchan?」

「To this Ivan, Botchan has been Botchan since you were a child. Rather than that Botchan, would you please introduce our guests?」

Apparently, this man called Ivan is a veteran servant that has worked in this Ruven House since Wald-sama’s childhood.

「Yeah, sorry about that. Tak.u.mi, this is our butler Ivan. Ivan, this is Tak.u.mi who will be staying with us for a while and his little brother Allen and little sister Elena. I informed the old man about it, but」

「Yes, he has been asking for you. Tak.u.mi-sama, welcome. I’m a butler called Ivan. I will complete any requests you may have as soon as possible, so please, don’t hesitate to order me」

「I’m Tak.u.mi. I will be in your care for a while」

「Thank you for your politeness」

Ivan-san silently bowed once the introductions finished. I have been quite concerned about that, but Wald-sama who ignored my feelings advanced the talk.

「So, what about the old man and Mother? They are home, right?」

「Yes. Dannasama is in his office, Okusama is in the salon」

「Let’s go meet the old man first. Tak.u.mi, follow me」

「Ah, yes. ――Allen, Elena, come」

「「Yess~」」

After lightly bowing my head to Ivan-san, I briskly chased after Wald-sama. And so, we went towards the office of the head of the Count Ruven family――Wald-sama’s father.

When we arrived before the office, Wald-sama abruptly opened the door and walked inside.

「Oh, Wald, you have returned. Then, is that Tak.u.mi-kun?」

「P, pardon my intrustion」

「Welcome. Please come inside」

Wald-sama’s father was sitting at a desk dealing with some doc.u.ments, but he put the doc.u.ments on the desk when he saw me and hastily invited me inside.

「Make yourself comfortable. You can talk casually. My name is Matthias. I think you already know, but I’m this stupid son’s father」

「Thank you very much. I’m Tak.u.mi. These children are――」

「Allen!」

「Elena!」

After calming down on the sofa I was led to, we exchange greetings.

Whether it was because he’s Wald-sama’s relative, Allen and Elena gave their names cheerfully. It really was just their names, so I thought it might be a good time to step-up their game, so when I told them to attach「I am」next time――

「I am Allen!」

「I am Elena!」

The two introduced themselves on the spot once again. Matthias-sama who saw immediately addressed that.

「Children being lively is the most important. Think of your home as yours and spend your time here at ease」

「Thank you very much, Matthias-sama」
