Private Tutor to the Duke’s Daughter (Light Novel) #4

Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter: Volume 4

Rate this book
Allen sets out on an overdue trip home to the eastern capital—not just to his students’ dismay, but to his own as well. He’s been hiding his failure to become a court sorcerer from his parents, so despite his sister’s assurances, he finds himself dreading their reunion. Family problems are far from the only troubles awaiting him in his hometown, however—simmering tensions between the city’s large beastfolk population and its haughty human aristocracy are about to boil over, and hard-liners on both sides take a dim view of Allen’s status as an adopted member of the wolf clan. Meanwhile, the disgraced Prince Gerard hasn’t learned from his last defeat, and his rumored rebellion threatens to pull the tutor into a deadly web of conspiracy. Will the unexpected addition of Tina, Ellie, Lynne, and (of course) Lydia be enough to see Allen through his most physically—and politically—dangerous adventure yet?

夏休みの時です。魔法同士試験に失敗以来、アランさんは帰りません。リディヤとカレンの光栄が守るですので、アランはこの失敗に後悔しません。だが、アランは親の反応が恐れます。貧乏家族ですが、アランの親はかれが大学に行けせました。けど、最後的に魔導士試験に失敗しました。そして、帰らずに、一年が経ってました。この時に、決心したアランさんはちゃんと故郷に帰るつもりです。仲間ともに、アランは親にちゃんと話します。けど、突然に危険が現れました。アラン達の古い敵・ジェラルド・ウェインライト王子が国に逃避しました。復讐のために、王子は傭兵や騎士や色々な武闘派の方が集まって国に滅ぼしたいです。アラン達はこの危険が勝ちますか?それとも負けますか?当然に勝者は一番強い方ですが、知恵が一番決定要因です。

いい小説でした!この小説の内容は二つエベントのみがあるですが、詳しくて感動的なシーンが沢山あります。アランの親はどんな方ですか?ジェラルド王子はどんなぐらいクズですか?今回の小説は二つ質問に答えました。実はわたしは二つシーンに涙目になりました:アランと親の再会と最後の戦いです。そのバランスはこの小説がどんどん面白いになると思います。興味があるば、是非おすすめます!

It's summer vacation time. Ever since Alan failed the Mage Exam, he hasn't returned home. Since he properly protected Lydia and Karen's honor, he doesn't regret this failure. However, he is scared of his parents' reaction. Despite being a poor family, his parents allowed him to go to college. However, in the end, he failed the Mage Exam. So, without going home, a whole year passed. At this point, the resolute Alan decides to go home properly. Together with his friends, he talks to his parents. But during this time, a danger has appeared. Their old enemy, Prince Gerald Wainewright, has escaped the country. For revenge, the prince gathers mercenaries, knights, and soldiers together to destroy the country. Will Alan and the others win against this adversary? Or will they lose? Naturally, the winner is whoever is the strongest, but wisdom is the most important deciding factor in the end.

This was a great novel! This novel has only two events, but there are a lot of detailed and emotionally moving scenes. What kind of people are Alan's parents? How bad of a person is Prince Gerald? This novel properly answers these questions. Honestly, there were two scenes that I became teary-eyed with: Alan's meeting with his parents and the fierce fight. In my opinion, this balance makes the novel more and more interesting. For those interested, I highly recommend it!

Allen and company traveled to the Kingdom's eastern capital to visit his parents over the Royal Academy's summer break. Lydia came along on leave from her duties to be available in tracking down the missing prince who was loose in the area. But while Allen and the girls enjoyed their vacation, a conspiracy was brewing in the Algren dukedom and was about to come to a head. Allen and Lydia think they have a handle on things, but that is not quite the case as the final battle of the book reveals. And then the author discloses that these first 4 books were basically an introduction to the scheme that will be revealed in latter books. Great, now I will need to quickly get the next volume!

Amazing

Yet again, another great volume. The Ducal's sure have it rough. I'm glad to see two out of four Duke's support Allen. But what about the missing one. The two great spells have been introduced Allen as the "key". What is going to happen to Til and his family.
