Hero or Villain, Both Chapter 27: Father and son

As I laid in bed, I couldn’t help giving a sigh.

The things that Solomon...No, he had renad himself Faust after being turned into a lich...The things that Faust went through really were pitiful.

If it wasn’t for those necromancers, then he would have been in the Magic Tower by now.

But because of those necromancers, he had been turned into a lich that was dood to lurk in the shadows.

If possible, I should think of a way to help him.

However, that wasn’t the ti right now.

"Young master, sorry to keep you waiting."

As soon as I heard this, a smile appeared on my face and I threw out all thoughts that I had about Faust. I could only apologize to him since there were two twins that were dressed in maid uniforms with miniskirts that were waiting for .

Even though we’ve done it quite a few tis now, I never got tired of them.

How could I get tired of twins?

But I didn’t get to enjoy being with them as there was the sound of approaching footsteps that rang out.

"Bang!"

Just as urgent as the footsteps, the door was suddenly pushed open and a servant ca in.

The two maids that had been in front of my bed were surprised before quickly running to the side to cover themselves.

At the sa ti, I was naturally annoyed that soone had interrupted my fun ti, "What is the aning of this?"

The servant trembled when he heard my voice, but he still took a deep breath and said, "Young master, the lord is looking for you."

I couldn’t help slightly knitting my brows when I heard this.

I naturally knew who he was referring to when he called them lord, but I hadn’t been expecting to et with him. In fact, he shouldn’t even be at the manor right now since there were matters to handle in the capital.

With this sa look, I asked, "What is my father looking for for?"

The servant shook his head as if he didn’t dare say anything, but it was also clear that he didn’t know. He had just been sent to call , it wasn’t as if he actually needed to know anything.

So I just got up and followed him with a sigh.

But there was a slightly worried look that was on my face as I followed behind the servant.

It didn’t make sense that this father of mine would suddenly co back like this.

When we arrived at the study, the servant stayed outside while opening the door for .

I gave a nod in his direction before going in to find that the father of this body was sitting there.

This was Count Hellard Redmont.

He had the sa good looks as this body and even though he looked older, he looked like an older brother rather than a father.

To the side was a beautiful woman who looked like she was still in her twenties, even though she already had a child. This was the mother of this body, Countess Judith Redmont.

When I ca in, the two of them imdiately looked at .

However, I couldn’t read anything from the looks on their faces since they looked at with neutral expressions.

Even the clues around the room weren’t there as they had just been sitting there without anything out. It seed that they had been talking about sothing before this, but they stopped when I ca in.

So I could only awkwardly say, "Father, mother, is there sothing that you need from ?"

The two of them didn’t say anything as they just looked at with the sa expression on their faces.

That caused an awkward feeling to fill the air as I didn’t know what they were planning.

Finally, Count Redmont broke the silence by asking, "It seems that you’ve been sneaking around recently."

I was surprised to hear this since normally he wouldn’t mind doing things like this, but it seed like he was taking an interest this ti.

For him to suddenly take an interest like this, it ant that sothing must have happened.

Only I had no idea what it was.

"I don’t think that I’ve been doing anything big..." I said as a probe, but it didn’t seem like they cared for this. They continued to look at with the sa expressions on their faces.

So in the end, I decided to use one of the things that I had prepared.

Raising my hand, I gathered flas in my palm to show them without saying a word.

When I was done showing off, I said, "I’ve been learning a bit of magic during this ti."

Neither of them said anything, but I could tell that the way that they looked at had changed.

It was as if they were sizing up now.

So I didn’t do anything as I waited to see what they had to say.

"Do you want to make a place for yourself? Do you want to beco soone important?" Count Redmont suddenly asked this question.

"Huh?" I couldn’t help being caught off guard by him suddenly asking this.

After all, this was the last thing that I expected him to ask.

However, it seed that he was serious about this with the expression on his face.

So I slowly shook my head and said, "I have no intentions of raising my position at all. I’m content with my current life."

There was a long silence that lingered in the air, but eventually both of them let out sighs of relief which surprised .

"We were worried that you wanted to actually beco soone important." Countess Redmont suddenly said as if it was a bad thing.

Count Redmont nodded in agreent as he said, "For neutral nobles of average influence like us, it’s best if we stay out of sight. I hope that you will rember this when you take over as the count."

It seed that the two of them had been worried because of the sudden change, but not for the reason that I thought they were worried.

With a smile, I said, "Of course. I have no intention of breaking the status quo."

Both of them reveal relieved looks when they heard this.
