The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

Aarons' hunch was not wrong.

As soon as he and Mo Qianyun left Moti City, a group of mercenaries followed them.

These people were not very strong, not even at level four - but this incident also meant that Aarons had become a hot target in the underground world.

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry... Qianyun, kill them as soon as possible!"

These people were certainly no match for Mo Qianyun - when the beautiful female guard drew out the long sword with her left hand, their fate had already come to an end.

Although Mo Qianyun would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, these mercenaries were not good people from the beginning.

"As you command—Eight Phases, Absolute Sword!"

Due to the huge absolute gap in strength, these weak mercenaries didn't even have time to say their last words before they were completely wiped out from the world by the magic sword that mixed eight attributes.

This wasn't really a battle at all...Although Aarons did have some emotions, he was in no mood to think about these things right now.

"The car is coming, hurry up."

"I... must bring a flying machine next time."

After jumping onto the truck, Aarons immediately told the driver to return to Conil base at full speed.

Although there was still a lot of time left, he felt that he had to race against time - two months was not a short time, but if something unexpected happened, he would have no room for maneuver.

So, he is actually in a state of anxiety now.

……

"Is Xia Ye here? No? She is going to..."

"Marquis, please calm down first. Miss Spider suddenly flew back and reported the situation to Miss Sheep, and then the two of them went to Her Royal Highness the Princess together."

After returning to his office, Aarons only saw Jiang Yue, who was temporarily taking over Xia Ye's position.

After hearing that there was also an emergency on Klia's side, Aarons forced himself to calm down.

"Huh... Teacher Jiangyue, the Cadians will attack the Empire in two months. They are already preparing for war... We must also make some preparations as soon as possible."

"Is that so... But Marquis, are you planning to shoulder all the responsibilities by yourself again?"

Aarons had never expected Jiang Yue to ask such a question, so he could only swallow back the next words.

——Are you going to take responsibility again?

"While you should be concerned about this, this is a war between nations and it is not something you can reverse alone."

"But if Cardia really invades, the Duke of Booker might plot against us from behind..."

"Her Royal Highness will take care of this matter - don't you trust her ability?"

Aarons, who had calmed down a lot, realized at this time that he seemed to be making mistakes again.

In order to help him eliminate the hidden dangers, Klia had already run to the enemy's base camp, but he still didn't have enough confidence in her and still wanted to solve all the problems by himself.

However, he thought this way, not because he was overconfident in his abilities.

"Isn't it time for you to learn to rely on us appropriately? We will help you solve problems and eliminate threats for you... Don't you think this is enough?"

"…Then what use am I?"

"You've done a lot for us. Take a break once in a while."

Sensing Aarons' anxiety, the beautiful sage walked up and gave him a gentle hug.

"The renovation of the Yumenhua can be completed within a month, and Qianyun can handle most of the work. You can take a few days off and relax before making a plan."

Although Aarons' tense spirit was not so easy to relax, Jiang Yue's words did make some sense.

Excessive anxiety will affect your thinking ability and may also weaken your judgment.

"Okay, I'm going to go get some rest... I'll come back to discuss this with you later."

"Okay, then I'll ask Qianyun to make you something to eat."

……

Aarons was indeed a little too tense.

After hearing that Cadia was about to invade the Empire, the first thing he thought about was how his existing strength could fight against the enemy's army.

But Jiang Yue reminded him in time that the war between countries was not something he could handle alone. Even if the old marquis was still there, this war could only be dealt with by the power of the empire.

"…So, what should I do?"

Of course he understood the truth, but Aarons still had some concerns.

——If I don’t do anything, what is the value of my existence?

Of course, I can just be a hands-off boss and push all the problems to Keliya or Xia Ye to deal with. But if I do that, it won't matter whether I am there or not.

——Even without me, they can solve all the problems.

"What else can I do?"

Aarons knew he was afraid.

He knew that he had no abilities and could not help with most things.

If I fail to demonstrate my value, will others eventually abandon me?

"It's foggy..."

Before he knew it, Aarons had left his room and walked out of the building alone.

Although it was just getting dark, there was a faint mist outside for some reason.

I seem to have experienced this feeling somewhere before, just like...

"Good evening, brother."

"Wha-you are..."

Before Aarons realized what was happening, the fog around him immediately became thicker.

Then, a girl who seemed familiar but obviously a little abnormal appeared from the fog.

"I am, your, sister."

"Sister? No, I don't--"

Aarons was of course aware of the abnormal situation at the moment, but before he could react, a powerful mental force directly invaded his brain.

...Sister? It seems that I do have a sister.

"...Why are you here? It's very dangerous here, go back quickly."

Go back? No, where else could she go back to?

"Brother, are you troubled?"

Looking at the strange girl with inhuman pointed ears and vertical pupils, and long black hair reflecting red and blue light, Aarons suddenly felt a strange sense of disobedience.

Is she really his sister?

"The war is about to begin. I must think of some way... I must protect everyone."

"Protection, everyone?"

The girl tilted her head slightly, as if she didn't understand what Aarons said, and showed a confused expression.

"Then who will protect me, brother?"

Although Aarons was in a somewhat confused state at the moment, when he heard such a question, his expression suddenly became resolute——

"No need, I am... someone who can be replaced."
