《I Want To Enjoy A Country Life!》Chapter 2
Advertisement
*Paanpakapaanpapa~*
I felt astonished and deeply moved at the rhythmical sound of the trumpet. It's a beautiful tune played each and every morning!
After the trumpet's performance ends, the King will walk along the center aisle and sits down on the pedestal where he had to look down below his subjects.
Yes, I am in the middle of admiring the morning's divine service right now. This country's religion is like the Divine King's religion. The King and God is the same, the King is the Sun, the King is absolute - it feels like seeing the history ages ago.
I listened to the incessant talk of the Reverend while enduring the urge to yawn.
However!
For some reason, he is talking about the Kingdom's history today and the topic is the King who reformed agriculture.
That King had an interest in agriculture and when a calamity happened, he improved potato and made it widely available in order for them to have something to eat. That King personally experienced and performed agriculture himself, and then he investigated it!
"Isn't that right, Princes? Just dreaming of something ideal will keep it merely a dream, action is needed for it to be realized."
I feel like I've been struck by thunder with the words of the Reverend. This! This is the reason I want to leave the castle!
I spent that day's service inwardly dancing for joy while thinking how everything will somehow go smoothly.

Afterwards, I was called out by Elder Brother on the way to breakfast.
"Did your recover immediately because you're also an idiot even when it comes to collapsing?"
I looked over and saw him sneering with a cruel expression and a smirk. If I am the previous Aine, I would surely talk back and argue, however I am now having a fresh start in life. (Does that mean I was cured when I got reborn?)

"Please do not worry. I am thouroughly recovered as before."
"Haa? I am not worried, idiot. I think it would be better if you just died right then."
Just like that, Elder Brother left towards somewhere else while I stood still.
Even if you say that, it's painful to die once again... I'll stay away from that person as much as possible until I leave the castle, I secretly vowed.
"Ah, Yuan."
When I called out to Yuan, he looked back with an extremely displeased expression.
"Can you not call my name."
Yuan left as soon as he said that. Are you a forest bear...
I scratched my head. It looks like being in the castle isn't happy at all. As expected, I have to go to the country side! That is my resolution.
During the meal, I was treated as if I didn't exist. Elder Brother and Yuan talked about national defense while I am at the farthest seat for some reason, slowly eating a bread.
This world is Western in appearance so the breakfast is also Western-style, it's very delicious!
The previous Aine would definitely participate in the talk to stir up disturbance, however my Japanese soul with a peaceful mind that knows not to disrupt the winds, decided to just shut up and eat my breakfast. This bread is really delicious...
Of course I noticed that Elder Brother and Yuan exchanged glances upon seeing me like that.
I finished eating as Elder Brother's talk progressed in the background, I then left my seat and stood up. Right then, I heard Elder Brother's angry voice directed at me so I turned towards him.
"Oi! You dare stand up before me? You insolent bastard! This is why I hate those good-for-nothing."
Huh? Certainly, I am the slowest eater until today. But you didn't complain when Yuan stood up first before!

It's what I thought, however I am a man with a Japanese soul. I'm calm, I'm calm.
"I'm sorry," I lowered my head and sat down again. As expected, I can't live in this castle if I have to get permission just to sit on a chair! I want to live a solitary life!
"Elder Brother," Yuan addressed me as I was thinking 'It's leisure time, leisure time~' while gazing at a painting ahead.
"Did your head become strange when you collapsed?"
Yuan stared fixatedly at me. Moreover, Elder Brother (Leichel) is still watching me.
It's true that the previous 'Aine' is usually talkative, so they're suspicious now that I stayed silent and remained well-mannered. However, my setup is not that of a high-handed prince anymore!
I chuckled when I thought of that. Thereupon, both of them stared at me like they're trying to peel off my thoughts with their eyes. Amazing, their eyes were opened widely that it seems like they will fall out. After looking at both their faces, I returned my gaze to the painting.
The meal ended and Elder Brother stood up, after Yuan did the same, I also stood up then left the room.
Then I headed to the King's room right then. This will be a direct negotiation.

New Game (Reborn as a Reluctant Demon Lord, Book 1)
Portal Fantasy. Isekai. A daydream of nerds everywhere, leaving behind their boring world and living in a fantasy one that is full of adventure. A daydream that became a reality for me and 1000 other Comic-Con attendees. Except for me, it was more of a nightmare. Wanting nothing more than to find a way home, and also saddled with being the world's new [Demon Lord], I found myself trapped in a gamelike world and also somehow a part of the [Hero's] party. So join me as I tell the tale of my struggles. A tale of levels and skills. A tale of cagey game admins and bugs. And a tale of our party's grand quest to defeat... Well... Me. ---- What to expect from this book? 1. A main character who is not overpowered (and instead has to go from near-useless to strong. Not just weak to strong). If you are looking for an OP [Demon Lord] who laughs at his weakling enemies... This isn't for you. 2. A meandering pace as the characters aren't told how a lot of the world works and have to figure it out themselves. (And because there are a lot of characters. Whose idea was it to have a party of 9? I blame Jake) 3. A tragedy. A lot of things are not going to go well for the protagonist. (Not that everything is tragedy all the time. There is humor, laughter, friendship, and even a mascot monster character who got way more popular than I expected. But this is not a story that will leave you uplifted and inspired after every time you read it). ---- Release Schedule and publishing information: Book 1 is complete! I will include a link to book 2 once it has been started. Feel free to give feedback, positive or negative. ---- Other notes Book 1? Yes, this says Book 1. There are probably going to be 3 books. No, the plot as you can guess is not going to be tortured to drag out all the way to book 3. That would be ridiculous. If you can guess the plot of books 2 or 3 at any point before the last chapter of book 1, please use your clairvoyant powers for something more productive. TitusGM? This story is intentionally told under the username TitusGM because the idea is that he was the one actually writing everything down what happened after it all is over. I initially planned to answer everything in character on this site, but that just really didn't work out. If you want an in character response to a comment, simply prefix it with IC: (I also try to leave that as a reminder in the author's note after each new chapter) Cover art?
