The Sold Daughter Was Doted On So Much That She Was ‘Unfrozen’ In Her Place Of Servitude

it also went into my family’s pocket.

“So be it.”

General Gastagyu stood up with a gasp.

“I’ll stay in my room.
You are now free to look around the house.”

“Yes ,your excellency.”

“You can choose any available room for yourself.”

“Yes ,your excellency.
Thank you.”

I nodded and then asked a question.

“Your excellency, how many attic rooms are there in this mansion?”

“Huh…?”

General’s face was scary as he asked back with a wrinkle between his eyebrows.

“Why do you care how many rooms there are in the attic?”

“That’s because you said I could choose my room as I please, your excellency.”

In most aristocratic residences, the servants’ quarters are in the attic.
So I decided that I was allowed to use any room in the attic that I wanted.
I was wondering if choosing the room meant that it didn’t have to be a ‘room’.

And I am used to it, having lived in the attic for ten years after my sister-in-law took my room.

But it seems that… the General had a different idea.

I asked as a matter of course, and General Gastagyu turned his head with a look of not being able to understand.

“Why would you want to sleep in the attic when I have several rooms that are fully furnished with beds and furniture?”

“…Ehh?”

“Oh, maybe you like the view from the attic? I won’t stop if you want it though.”

“No, I have no particular preference…”

“Then take the empty guest room upstairs.
I don’t like having guests over my head.”

“…Yes… you excellency.”

Is it okay? If I use a regular bed.

“And stop with, your excellency.
My shoulders are stiff, like I’m working.”

“Then, Mast-“

“Stop with the master too.
I feel old.”

…I don’t know how old this man is, I can’t tell from his appearance.

“What should I call you, then?”

“Just use my name.”

“Yes.
The…”

…Uhmm… Uhmmm…

“…don’t you know my name?”

……

“P-please forgive me.”

I lowered my head frantically.
It’s such a blunder that I can’t remember my master’s name! I might get beat on my palms.

I shudder inwardly, but he nonchalantly said, 

“No, you said your name earlier, but I haven’t yet.
I was rude.

“No no! That’s out of the question!”

Why is he apologizing to me?!

Leaving me in a deep pale state, he proudly introduced himself.

“I’m Schwarz.
Schwarz Gastagyu.”

“Schwarz-sama.”

Yes, I remember.

“Well, nice to meet you, Michel.”

“Pleased to meet you.
too Schwarz-sama.”

And so I became a servant in the Gustagyu mansion.
