WeD - V1C22 - Ulysses, Retiring from the Front Line

[1] The conversation was so intense just now that I ended up forgetting to eat. Therefore, during a break in the talk, I peck a bit at the lemon cake and sip my tea.

Yes, having something sweet after a difficult topic really helps the body recover.

“Ah, that’s right… may I ask you a question?

“What is it, Your Highness?”

“Honourable Uncle, why do you treat me so well? Surely, under normal circumstances, we would be a hindrance?”

“Hahaha, well, tha...

“So that’s Brixt? As expected of a dungeon city, it’s quite huge.”

“We’re finally here, even though we could have been here earlier,” [7] grumbled Fer.

In fact, I’m pretty sure if Fer had gone faster, I’d most likely have peed on ...

Thanks to all the fuss by Fer and Dora-chan, even Sui popped out of her bag.

“Of course, after being harassed by those children, we must have meat!”

Tondemo Skill - 400 - Charity

Gumi: I’ve mostly changed the ‘Old Man’ to ‘Director’

The Director was a good man with quite a manly spirit.

[8] After speaking with him, and understanding that the Director would renovate the building as well as implement other ways to improve the children’s lives, I left the orphanage with my familiars.

The Director appeared to be sincere and able to work proactively. My role is finished here, I do hope that the children could live happy fulfil...

WeD - V1C21 - Ulysses: I Might as well Just Say It

The Kingdom of Ruskia and the Imperial family had long been divided into two factions for a long time.

I’m not talking about the fight for the throne by the way, though that’s part of it. Simply put, there’s the ‘open-country’ faction vs the ‘close-country’ faction. In other words, people who are open to the idea of accepting more immigrants and learning technologies from another country versus the faction that wants to close the country against all outsiders and outside i...

WeD - V1C20 - Ulysses is Uneasy about Uncle’s Sugar Cube Intake

Sir Raymond Alexander of Ruskia was my uncle.

That said, Uncle Raymond is the youngest of many brothers. He was still in his 20s when my father and the rest of his other brothers were already in their late 30s.

He is quite a capable person but once in a while, [1] he did things I don’t quite understand.

This uncle of mine is standing in front of me with a smile. I am smiling too but am no mat...

Tondemo Skill - 399 - An Old Man's Story

Gumi: Looks like the Director is doomed to be a nameless Old Man.

After the children had eaten their fill, they rushed out of the dining room to [6] their various activities.

As the children left the cafeteria, [6] they all passed by me to say ‘Thank you, uncle’, or ‘That was really delicious, uncle!’. [1] Not a single one of them called me ‘older brother’…

To be honest, I was rather devastated.

After the children were gone, I looked into...

Tondemo Skill - 397 - Hirschfield Orphanage

Gumihou: Make the 'informer' someone more interesting, gave him a character at least.

I am currently scouting out the Hirschfield Orphanage building. Having received directions from Isaac-san yesterday, I found it soon enough.

Right now, I am behind the orphanage building. The cheerful voices of children could be heard, which made me quite relieved since it was unlikely for children who have barely enough to eat to sound that energetic.

Still, for an orphana...

WeD - V1C19 - Ulysses Sought Healing but Gained Doubt

My name is Ulysses.

There are two great powers within the royal capital Miladrid: The Royal Palace and the Church.

Centred within the ancient sanctuary of Vabilophos is a region under the dominion of the Church of Vabel. Surrounding that area are many national magical research institutes.

The Royal Palace had been mandated to protect Vabel for quite a long time now.

Though it is designated as a country, the region called ‘Vabel’ was not that large. It is similar to...

I am Isaac Kyrgos

One of the many insignificant royal sorcerers in the palace.

Right now, for some unspecified reason, I have been charged to escort the Fifth Prince, His Highness Ulysses.

It happened on a summer night’s feast day, two years ago.

Even though we were royal sorcerers, that night’s party was an incredibly extravagant no-hold-barred party where we ate, drank, sang and bragged about our powers. Naturally, I was no exception. As I am usually the quiet gl...

The next day, I set out for town with the information that Isaac-san had given to me.

I informed Fer and the rest that I would not be leaving the city today, but they still stuck with me for some reason.

Sui was in my bag, sleeping as usual.

Well, it’s not like she could not sleep back at the house, but I still find myself worrying about her all alone in a big house by herself.

“Hello, Isaac-san.”

Isaac’s mouth dropped open the moment he spotted us at the entrance of the Adventurer’s Guild.

“Eh? Eh? Eh? Didn’t you just left for your mission this morning? [4] [8] Wait. Did you fail?! Aaahh!! What should we do!!??” [5]

WeD - V1C17 - Ulysses- Life is Difficult as a Child Prodigy (Part 2)

Then, there was that incident when I was 11.

By then, the number of princes had decreased from 10 to 4. Which means the enemy factions were beginning to focus more of their resources into getting rid of me. Indeed, although Bastion warned me to never set foot outside that was the day I spotted a pink firefly and began to chase it around the courtyard. [3] In my heart of hearts, I realised that this was most like a trap but I decided to ignore it as per my unpleasant, childish personalit...

My name is Ulysses Claudio les Ruskia, fifth prince of Ruskia.

In my previous life, I was known as Yuri Shizuka.

I was also known as the White Sage of the East in the old Maydea.

Right now, I might be the fifth prince but I am third in line for the throne. That’s because aside from the First Prince, all other princes between me and the throne have all died.

I can’t stand this situation where 13-year-old me has to battle against my royal brothers to take the throne....

Gumi: … I’m going to experiment. I’m going to just edit without putting the footnotes in the text. We’ll see how it goes.

The next morning, we set out for Hirschfield Adventurer’s Guild.

The building was considerably smaller than Carenina’s and was rather noisy, even for the usual morning rush.

I looked around and decided to speak to one of the nearby Adventurers.
