Fun Territory Defense of the Easy-Going Lord ~The Nameless Village Is Made Into the Strongest Fortified City by Production Magic~

em as female.
Edit: Future me here, Kamsin is a guy.
So yeah.)

“Please tell him I’m not here,”

　Then Kamsin frowned with his clean and simple face.
After washing his hair and body thoroughly, a skinny boy with dark blue hair appeared.
I hated how surprisingly awe-inspiring the clothes looked upon their cleansed body.
(T.N.
Note: Fess up, are you a guy, or are you a girl?
Edit: A guy.)

”No, I think they probably know…”

　Despite saying that, Kamsin accepted the cookie and ate it on the spot, then left the room.

”Oh, um, it looks like Master Van isn’t here.”

　Kamsin’s voice faintly echoed from outside the room.

“My God! But there was a witness who says he just entered this room!”

“I tried to look for him as well, but he was gone.”

“Hm! Kamsin, why do you have crumbs on your mouth? There wasn’t there before now!”

“…there are no crumbs.”

“Those crumbs indicate that you just ate! To think your silence could be bought with a cookie…! Van has some nerve to ignore the orders of the Vice Commander of the Order!”

“I’m Master Van’s loyal slave, I won’t rat him out.”

　Dee snorted as Kamsin clearly declared that he was on my side, not letting Dee’s pressure get the better of him.

“Mmmm … you sure have guts to be able to talk back to me.
Alright, then I’ll train you instead of Van-sama! You should treat it as an honor!”

“Wha!? Huh, uh, me? Sir?”

　They had a very pleasant conversation, after which Kamsin was taken away.

　Is would seem that Kamsin will also receive the special training from hell that I received.
Poor thing.

　I had no choice but to quietly follow them, even I felt a bit guilty.

　After that, when I saw Kamsin begin to become listless from fatigue, I decided to undergo the second half of the training by appearing in front of Dee on purpose.

　”Well Dee, from now on let’s make the first half of the training with Kamsin and the second half with me.
It’s just a pity that I can’t shove off Espada’s lesson onto Kamsin.”

　And so, before I knew it, I had turned eight years old.(T.N.
Note: That was… sudden.)

　The prodigy, who had absorbed all of Espada and Dee’s Spartan education until then, had become a loafer in the last two years.
Now, the prodigy was just another child.

　At least, that’s how it should have been evaluated.

　I was pleased to see that everything was going according to plan.

　But I didn’t think that I would become so low-rated that I would be sent to a remote village.
It worked a little too well.

“….So how did it go?”

　When I returned to my room, Till and Kamsin, who were waiting for me, asked me that with an anxious look on their faces.

　I nodded to them with a smile.

‘Yes! So you had an aptitude for fire magic!

　Till is pleased, but she stops celebrating when I shake my head from side to side to deny it.
Then, this time, Kamsin opens his mouth.

“So, then, the wind attribute? Just like Murcia-sama?”

　They ask me that, but I shake my head at that too.

　I open my mouth quietly to the two silent girls.

“I had an aptitude for production magic,”

　When he replied, they only blinked their eyes as they froze.
After a few seconds of silence, Kamsin answers.

”Well, that’s a magic one doesn’t hear about often.
Is it rare?

　Kamsin muttered.

　”It’s not rare, it’s just that those with a magical aptitude for production don’t publicly disclose it.”

”Well, I guess it’s an aptitude you don’t see much of among the nobility.”

　When I replied with a bitter smile, Till finally reactivated from her shocked state.

”Ah, but……..with how amazing you are, you’ll definitely be appointed to a key position in the Marquis family! There’s no doubt about it!”

　At that, a dry laugh comes out of my mouth.

”Well, since I’ve become a lord, I guess I am in a key position.”

“What? Incredible! It’s really is a big role!”

　As soon as I answered, Till literally jumped up and down in excitement.
Kamsin smiled as well.

　But when I said my next words, their faces froze again.

“My territory is an unnamed frontier village.”
