[Pirates] Retired Knight's Logbook

【forty three】

...Where did you capture other people's children from? ! ——Andrea was particularly worried at first.

In fact, she couldn't blame her for thinking so. Judging from the clothes of the child Ace was pulling, he was not a commoner, but rather a noble. In this world, few people would pretend to be a noble, let alone such a young child. It can be reflected in your clothing.

And the virtues of the nobles in this world...it seems that there is a barrier between the nobles and the common people. It is understandable that Andrea would have such worries.

And... based on what she knew about her son, she was really afraid that Ace would grab a nobleman to take his place in school because he was tired of studying!

Andrea showed a headache, raised her hand to rub her eyebrows, looked at the child, and said in a gentle tone: "Ace said your name is Sabo?"

【Forty-four】

The child that Esla is holding is named Sabo, and he is the son of a noble from the Kingdom of Goa. It's not like he was abducted by Ace to teach for him, but he ran away from home on his own.

After Andrea inquired carefully, she also discovered that this five-year-old child was very thoughtful - he decided to run away from home after discovering that his parents only cared about status and property, not his son.

Not only did Sabo have his own ideas, but he was also very capable of action. He ran straight out of the city in a flash, and was still hanging around at the Uncertain Terminal, looking for valuable things in the garbage to find gold and pay back the money. It really made him He settled down and hung out for almost a month until he met Ace who was running over there to play.

Andrea heard this and decided to teach this brat of hers a lesson later - she told him not to go to the Uncertain Terminal and play around!

She wasn't the kind of person to keep her children under control, but the Uncertain Terminal was full of gangsters who had been expelled from the town, so she would still be worried if Ace went there alone.

But now that Ace's new friend is here, she will save some face for the child.

Sabo was still a little embarrassed when facing Andrea, especially after he finished explaining his situation. Seeing Andrea frowning and not speaking, he became even more nervous.

He had met Ace several times, and he had heard Ace keep mentioning his mother. He heard the description of her as a gentle and stern person, and he also made up the image in his mind...

But when he really saw her in person, Sabo couldn't help but feel a little scared - for no other reason than that the aura that Andrea naturally brought out in her movements was so familiar, especially when she looked unhappy and angry. He is very good at bluffing people; and...because it is rare for him to find a companion.

Sabo knew how much Ace liked Leia's mother, and he was quite afraid that Andrea wouldn't like him.

After Andrea thought about how to adjust the lessons for Ace, she came to her senses and noticed Sabo's uneasy state.

And Ace has long been familiar with Andrea's pattern. He knew that Andrea was not really angry at this time, and he even ran up to her and started to circle around her like a baby: "Mother Leah - Sabo has no place to go now. , can you come to our house? Okay, okay—"

"Stop being ridiculous!" Andrea grabbed Ace who was running around and lifted him up, then looked at the blond child who lowered his head and smiled slightly, "Your name is Sabo, right? Since you are Ace's friend, then If you don’t mind our humble home, you are welcome to come over and play with Ace.”

"is it okay?"

"Of course! I just said that my mother is very good!"

"Okay, brat! I haven't settled the score with you yet! Tomorrow's class will be an extra half hour! Add to that the previous accumulation, you have to teach me obediently for three hours tomorrow!"

"Hey - now Sabo is here, can I let him take class with me? If two people take class, then I only need to take class for an hour and a half, right?"

"...I taught you arithmetic, not for you to use it in this kind of place."

【Forty-four】

Andrea felt a little speechless - although it was not the main purpose, she did not guess wrong about the brain circuit of her brat.

But after all, Sabo was born into a noble family, and the two of them were taking classes together... and the contrast became apparent.

For Sabo, those contents were just a review, but for Ace... it could only be regarded as a preview at best.

The only good thing is that when Saab came, because he wanted to finish class quickly and play with Saab, Esp was much more motivated than usual when he was in class alone.

Of course, the speed of running away after class is getting faster and faster.

Raising another Saab doesn't put any pressure on Andrea - it's just a matter of having more food. She is not short of money at all, and she is not afraid of not being able to get food at all. Ace can even get enough food for his family by himself.

As for Sabo's family... Judging from her understanding of the nobles of this world, the reason why Sabo ran away from home, and the fact that no one has been looking for him after running away from home for more than a month, Andrea doesn't think so at all. Keep this relationship in mind.

In other words, she doesn't take the nobles of this world seriously at all.

That is to say, she has not met the Celestial Dragons so far, and she had to worry about Ace's presence in the Chambord Islands. Otherwise, she might be on the bounty list now, because she beat the Celestial Dragons violently and had to teach them. How to be a human being.

Andrea had previously thought about whether it would be bad if Ace was alone and had no friends, but she also walked around Central Town and observed it, and no matter how she looked at it, she didn't think there was anyone suitable to be Ace's playmate... ...Unexpectedly, Ace found a friend on his own, a son of a nobleman.

But seeing Sabo like this, Andrea also began to correct some of her thoughts - it's not that people become arrogant from birth, but the environment. She believed that he was not the only aristocratic child who had the same doubts as Sabo when he was a child, and maybe there were quite a few of them. However, there were very few people like Sabo who really questioned and would take action to resist the environment. Basically, they were all dismissed. Assimilated...

Thinking about this, Andrea thought of the blond navy who she had met once before - thinking about it, the questions Rosinandy asked her at that time seemed to have some obvious direction... Looking at his etiquette and upbringing, It is very possible that he was also a noble before.

This thought just passed by in a flash. Without thinking deeply, Andrea shifted her attention - because she suddenly discovered that Sabo's running posture, who ran away with Ace, was very similar to Ace...

...It's over! Could it be that Sabo didn't bring Ace back, but Ace led Sabo astray? ! ——Andrea started to panic a little.

Despite her panic, Andrea would not really restrain Ace by force, but the look in her eyes when she looked at Sabo changed from happy to a little worried.

In this subtle melancholy, Andrea decided to go to Windmill Village - the wine in Central Town was mediocre, and she heard from Garp that there was good wine there, and she needed to get some to prepare.

She had an inexplicable hunch that the desire to drink would become more frequent in the future.
