Chapter 84 – The Burixes Jump in

The next day. Under the sunny sky, I started tending to the mansion's garden.

Since I don't have the skill, I couldn't take part in the mansion's renovation, so I left it to the carpenters that Aaron had arranged.

But I wanted to put my experience as a gardener during my time working for the Hearts into use. This kind of thing is actually fun to do for me, although it may be weird seeing the Barbatos family head himself is the one who does the work.

Quietly went by myself, since there is no weed left after Myne pulverized the garden, I began to think about how to return the garden to its former glory, when suddenly someone called me from the direction of the Heart mansion.

[Aren't you Fate!? It's been a while…..]

It was one of the Heart family's gardeners who I'm indebted with for teaching me the gardening techniques. He looked at me and smiled, seemingly pleased with the reunion. Then he looked at where I am, the clothes I'm wearing, before his expression turned agape.

While I stayed in the mansion, I didn't put my skull mask on, so I kinda knew that it will be like this.

[It's been a while. Long time no see.]

[…..that's one more surprise for me. You left here, then returned, but I never expected that you'll return as a holy knight. Oops, I shouldn't be talking so nonchalantly.]

[No, you can speak as usual. Let me reintroduce myself then. I'm Fate Barbatos, the successor to the Barbatos family. Now that I have, please call me Fate like before.]

[Alright. If that's what you want, then I will do so. Anyways, there was a talk among the servants that Aaron-sama has returned. There is also the story about succession….but I never thought that it's actually Fate…..you hid your real capabilities really well, didn't you?]

I hid my real capability…..? Well, I was just living quietly as normal employee, and I didn't have holy sword mastery skill back then, so I didn't exactly hide anything…..

I only obtained the holy sword mastery after I devoured the soul of Burix's second son Hado. For better or worse, without this skill, I honestly don't know what will bee of me.

I was just a gatekeeper at first, then after receiving serious injuries from the Burixes, I was rescued by Roxy and became the Heart mansion's employee….I left for Gallia as a warrior, then returned home as a holy knight. Not only that, a successor to the Sword Saint Aaron.

With a bitter smile, teacher gardener told me while giving a look at the Barbatos mansion's garden.

[Anyways, that seems to be in bad condition. By any chance, is Fate planning to fix the garden by yourself?]

I supposed he guessed it from the tools I put around me.

[Ah, yes, I am. I want to put into use everything you have taught me. Moreover, doing this makes me feel calm. I do know that it'll take a while to restore the garden entirely though.]

[U~n, that's true. How about this, why don't I help you out?]

[Eh, is it really okay? Then what about the Heart family's garden….?]

He laughed at that. He said that it's no good to look down on someone who has worked as a gardener for decades, and there was more than one gardener at the Heart mansion anyways.

And so he decided to help during his free time.

[Yosh, it's decided. I'll help you in a bit.]

[Yes, thank you very much!]

Teacher gardener went into the Barbatos mansion garden, and gave it another look.

He then frowned, as he looked up to the sky.

[I only looked her once in a while when working next door, but I don't know that it was worse than I thought before. And……what's with that!?]

[Eh, which one do you mean?]

He's pointing at the battle traces and deep gouges on the ground. Ah, that was from yesterday, when Aaron and Myne sparred on the garden.

Even without Myne, Aaron's strength had also grown exponentially after defeating the【Harbinger of Death】Lich Lord. Perhaps it's due to having broken through the limit after that battle.

The sparring session left great damage to the garden. I also contributed to the damage, since I was also training, but I couldn't just say that…..
