We decided to gather information on beastkin

---

“Mmm. While I wasn’t there, I never heard anything about humans having an overwhelming disadvantage. Even if humans were weaker as individuals, we were more numerous, so that’s why we were winning.”
“In other words, you think Liza has a special talent?”
“Yes. Well, it’s just speculation. We need to know more about these beastkin…”
“The beastkin…hmm…”
“Sebastian, do you know something?”

Sebastian put a hand to his chin and thought.
It seemed like he did know something, and now we were all looking at him.

“No… When it comes to information on the beastkin, the royals and the nobles on the north side would be the most knowledgeable. After all, the south did not fight. That is why the Liebert house has little information… Though, I am sure there are books about the beastkin in the main house…”
“The main house. Yes, unlike this mansion, there is likely to be such books in that library…”
“However, won’t it be very difficult to search for those books?”
“…Are there really that many?”
“Mmm… The library alone is about half the size of the mansion you live in, Mr. Takumi.”
“That…is definitely a lot of books…”
“The result of years of collecting. It is a wonderful storehouse of knowledge… But that time she got buried, I thought it was too late…”
“Back then, even more than now… Claire was very impulsive…”

Unlike Japan, where there was all kinds of communication technology, here, you either had to speak direction or write it down.
In any case, they said there may be books at the main house that are related to the beastkin.

I had a hard time imagining how difficult it would be. But it was like a building half the size of the mansion, and it was filled with books.
Like a large library…
If it was supposed to be difficult to search for books, that meant they weren’t organized. It must be quite chaotic.
But a book worm would love a place like that.

Still, Ms. Claire used to play there as a child…
Perhaps she had knocked down the shelves and was buried in books. Though Mr. Ekenhart was sighing, I thought it was adorable… Though, perhaps it was actually dangerous.
Especially if it wasn’t just books, but shelves fell on her as well.

“Well, when it comes to books, I know who to ask. After all, the reason he works in that house is to read books…really…”
“Haha. That is true. The one person who likely remembers where each book is. Mmm. I will go and ask once I return. Also, I will send messengers to the royals and other nobles, and gather information.”
“…Why is Sebastian sighing?”
“Ah, that is… The person in question is Sebastian’s son. While Sebastian serves the Liebert house loyally, his son does not feel the same way. While he did become a butler, he reads books whenever he has free time, and is not very serious about his job.”
“…If he worked more seriously, he could have been a house steward…hah… Whose fault is it…”
“Ah…I see…”

So they had the perfect person who could search for the books.
And while Sebastian looked serious, Mr. Ekenhart was amused.
Apparently, it was because this person was Sebastian’s son.
As Sebastian was old enough to have grandchildren, I wasn’t too surprised… And the person was also a butler.

As stewards were at the top when it came to servants, it must mean that he was very capable.
But he was influenced by someone and liked books, which he spent all of his time reading… But wouldn’t that be Sebastian’s influence…?
I thought of Sebastian as the explanation man. He read numerous books to acquire knowledge, which he then shared with others…
His son must have seen him reading and become interested in books as well. That seemed the most natural.

Still, I couldn’t tell the sighing Sebastian that it was his own fault. But I saw the Mr. Ekenhart, Ms. Claire and Phillip were looking at each other and chuckling.
So they clearly came to the same conclusion…
Perhaps while Sebastian was sharp when it came to many things, he was dense when it came to matters concerning his son…
