Chapter 254: Mother faints

　At the entrance of the mansion, there was the now-familiar sight of a “Walking, masked turtle. This time, the color of the mask is blue. It seems that they are trying to unify even if it is not possible. they’re notgoing to call themselves rangers or anything, are they?

“Is that the Spirit?”

“Yes, that’s…”

“Mistress!　Mistress, get a hold of yourself!”

“Amelia!”

　It appears that my mother has fainted. As expected of a well-bred young  lady. It was too much stimulation.

　It seems that she was able to avoid falling to the floor because I had told her personal servant beforehand. Father is hurriedly supporting Mother’s body.

　As expected, it would be disrespectful to the spirit if there was any more commotion. I greeted it, pretending not to be bothered at all.

“It’s nice to meet you. I am Julius Heine.”

“It is you, after all. This may be my first time meeting you, but we’ve met you before.”

“What?　Oh, by any chance, at the Toradel River?　I am sorry, I did not recognize you.”

“Ha-ha-ha, that’s all right. most people can’t see us.”

　It said and laughed boldly. Then father, who had left the mother in the care of the servants, joined us. He looked a little pale, but his face was tightened, as if he thought it would be a bad idea to make any more mistakes.

“I am Maximilian Heine, Julius’ father. What brings you here today?”

“Oh, you are Julius’ father. No, you really have a good son. Thanks to my friend Julius, many of our people are coming back to life. I am here today to thank him for that.”

　I don’t really need any thanks, but…was it a mistake to give him the magic potion out of sympathy? My father gently places his hand on my head. He doesn’t seem particularly angry. I thought he was going to get angry with me for making mother fall.

“I see. It is truly gratifying to hear that you would be so considerate. I’m very proud of Julius.”

　My father’s smile deepened. Apparently, he was not joking. He may think I’m a problem child, but he seems to be more compassionate than that. Good.

“My wife wanted to say hello too, but she isn’t feeling well. ……”

“Don’t worry about it. The appearance of a spirit must have been too much for her. Many people made a fuss on my way here.”

　When he said that, he burst into a hearty laugh again, ha ha ha. Did It come through the city looking like that? I am sure it thinks It is a “superstar” and not a “pervert”. It’s true that It’s been called a “spirit” and has garnered a lot of faith, and it’s not hard to see why people might have mistaken it that way.

“Um, I was wondering when I met the other spirit-samas, why do you have that appearance?”

“Huh?　I heard from the spirit of the lake that you like this appearance.”

“I-Is that so?”

　Smile, smile.

　I don’t remember saying that…but on the other hand, I didn’t deny it either. Maybe it took that as “yes”? I don’t know what to do, but if I deny it now, I’ll be ruining the face of the spirit of the lake.

“I like this look too, don’t you?”

　it said as It struck a pose like a bodybuilder. It’s  muscles were really impressive. father couldn’t help but exclaim, “Oh!” The river spirit felt good about this and struck a pose one after another. I felt glad that sister-in-law Meeka wasn’t here.

“Oops, I almost forgot. Julius, you have been very helpful to me. I will bestow upon you the divine protection that is proof that you are my friend.”

　The river spirit radiated something sparkly from It’s fingertips, and a pattern of drops appeared on the back of my hand. I got my third gym badge!　……Tohoho. At this rate, I wonder how many I’m going to get.

　I guess it’s done what It had to do. The river spirit went home.

“Julius, what are you going to do?”

　Father murmured when the two of us were alone in front of the entrance. He doesn’t look at me, but instead looks in the direction where the river spirit had just left.

“Even if you ask me…I don’t have any intention of doing anything in particular.”

“You have three blessings of the Spirit, right?　There has never been such a person in the world before. The country can not ignore your existence now.”

“I’m not trying to do anything for the country. If anything, as I have said in the past, I hope to contribute to the development of magic medicine in this country and in this world, even if only a little.”

“I see. The aspiration you inherited from my mother hasn’t changed. I’m sure she would have been pleased as well.”

　Is she? I couldn’t help but feel like someone was going to tap me on the shoulder from behind and say to me with a smile, “Can’t you just stop!?”

　When I returned to the salon with my father, my mother was still not there. Father noticed that and went out of the salon again. He must have gone to his beloved wife. When she wakes up, he will tell her what happened.

“Julius, may I ask you to tell me what happened?”

　I told my smiling brother Alex that I received blessings from the river spirit and that mother had a stroke when she saw it. sister-in-law Daniela nodded her head as if to say, “I understand, I understand that feeling.”

“Three blessings. I’m sure it won’t end there.”

“I think so. I am sure that the spirits who have regained their power will continue to visit here in the future.”

　From now on, spirits in the form of bipedal turtles will continue to visit Margrave Heine house. It is likely that some strange rumors will be going around in the capital. Maybe the guards will make their move.

“…… Julius, can’t you do something about that appearance?”

“That’s the way the spirit seems to like it. So I can’t ask them that they should change to another form. Why don’t you ask, brother Alex? ”

“Shouldn’t you, Julius, the Spirit’s friend, be the one to say that?”

　After all, that’s what he would do, isn’t it? I wonder how I can get them to change their appearance peacefully.  I would like someone to lend me some wisdom. Nero. Let’s ask Nero, my chief of staff. It’s not like I’m throwing everything I have at him
