Joseph: Is this person my father?
Baron: Hey Joseph, what are you doing with this kind man? I apologize for my son's foolishness.
The old woman: Don't apologize, Mr. Louis, Mr. Joseph is still a child, hahaha
The Baron: Yes, that's true, but I'll make sure he doesn't do it again.
Joseph the Elder: My father seems kind and easygoing, which is good. If he were arrogant or mean, I wouldn't have liked him.
Baron: Let's go, Joseph
Little Joseph: Okay
They walk out of the cafe and the Baron says: Come on, my dear.
Joseph the Elder: Oh, it seems this is my mother in this world.
My parents here are rich. I swear I'll try to make my parents happy in this world... but what about my parents in Japan? They died before I could do anything good for them. That's what I regret the most. We were poor, living in a nearly dilapidated house, but...My parents were truly kind. I'm glad my parents here haven't changed from my parents in Japan: Joseph the Elder's memories of his parents
Let's return to the memories of young Joseph:
Baron: Hey Joseph, will you come with me to the horse training?
Joseph the child: No, I won't go, I'll stay here.
Baron: Okay
Little Joseph is doing some of his usual things.
Joseph the Elder: Good, I must remember that. I mustn't forget so they believe I'm Joseph the Younger.
[System: Don't be afraid, even if you close your eyes after your memories end, you will remember everything.]
Joseph: Good, I was nervous about whether I would forget.
Three hours later, the Baron returns home with a child the same age as Joseph.
Baron: Joseph, your behavior is inappropriate. This child, named Edward, will become your friend.
Joseph the Elder: Is that Edward?
Little Joseph: Him? He's my friend? Hahaha, impossible!
Baron: You are punished. This is not the behavior of a noble lad.
Little Joseph: says angrily, "Okay."
Joseph the Elder: Now I understand why my reputation is so bad and why Edward looks at me with contempt, but it seems to me that Edward likes the Baron.
Moving on to other memories
Joseph the Great: Ah, it seems I will see other memories.
Little Joseph hits Edward
Joseph the Great looks on in shock
Little Joseph: Don't think we're friends. Is this the sword my father gave you? (Hold it)
Edward: Stop, please, sir, don't.
break
Edward cries
Joseph the Great: You little rascal
Moving on to other memories
Joseph the Elder: Now I understand why Edward despises me. Damn it, I must improve my relationship with him. He is very strong and will support me in the future. He could have struck me when I took the sword, but he didn't. Why?
Joseph the Elder: What is this place? Is it a horse stable? When I was in Japan, while watching anime, I saw a story with horse stables like this.
Joseph and Edward and the Baron
The Baron: You are both 14 years old now, and you must learn the manners of nobles and how to ride horses.
Little Joseph, it seems I'll ride a horse better than Edward; he's just a failure after all.
Edward, we'll see about that.
Baron: Joseph, haven't you learned your lesson? Edward is your friend, and friends respect friends.
Joseph: Whatever
The baron will teach them to ride horses in ten minutes.
Baron: Do you understand now? You two, start the horse race.
They ride their horses
Baron: Ready? Get ready to go.
They move quickly; Edward is in control, but Joseph is the opposite.
Joseph cries out, "Help me!"
Edward Happy
The Baron mounts his horse, trying to catch up with Joseph, but Edward catches up with Joseph and saves him.
Joseph: Damn it! You're a better horse rider than me, more handsome, and stronger. You're even stronger than my father!
But in the end, you're poor and common, unlike me. I have money and I'm noble, but...
The Baron slaps Joseph.
Joseph cries and walks away
The Baron apologizes on behalf of Joseph:
Edward Lapass, I'm used to hearing this from him.
Three years later
The baron fell into debt due to some swindlers, and after a year
Joseph became a bad boy, breaking into bars and beating people up.
Joseph the Elder: Now I understand why that person hit me.
Six months later, Akira came into the world in Joseph's place.
Joseph's return: The great one. Days have passed and I've been seeing Joseph's memories, but here it's only been five minutes.
But it seems the baron is in debt, which will affect my future. This means I have to do this.
The chapter is over.
