I Reincarnated as a Noble Girl Villainess But Why Did It Turn Out This Way? Ch 93

“Eliza, ‘Elise.’ Are you both here?”

“……Earl Terejia? Yes, Eliza-sama is currently here.”

Since I was currently unable to respond to anything right now, Ratoka replied for . A tired-looking Earl Terejia quietly opened the door and ca in for so reason together with Rashiok. It seems like Rashiok is gently nudging Earl Terejia. Maybe that’s why the Earl appears slightly confused.

“……Is sothing, the matter. Earl Terejia.”

A terrible sounding voice ca out of . It seems that I’m still quite shaken. Earl Terejia turned towards , and suddenly raised his eyebrow.

“……No, I want to know what’s going on as well. Rashiok brought over here.”

“Rashiok did?”

“That’s right. ……Sothing like this happened before as well. The day of that battle at Fort Jugfena.”

Rashiok, the subject of our discussion, was rely sitting in front of the door. Is this to make sure that nobody can leave? I think he wants us to talk things out. While the three of us remained confused, Rashiok suddenly howled.

We just kept looking at each other for a while. Finally, Earl Terejia was the first one to speak up.

“Shall we just chat for a little while in front of the door like this?”

Ratoka was licking his lips nervously. I also felt really awkward as well. We had just been talking about a topic which neither of us wanted a third party to hear.

“I think that what ‘Elise’ said earlier wasn’t wrong at all. Eliza, you have indeed been overlapping ‘Elise’ with Kamil.”

It’s impossible for to insist on that not being the case anymore if even the Earl is saying so. I can only admit to it. I nodded bitterly, while the Earl continued speaking.

“I haven’t seen you too much these days recently, but I can still tell. You’re afraid of repeating the sa thing with Kamil’s death all over again.”

– I felt like my vision had just cracked into two pieces like a shattered mirror. Sothing that I didn’t want to know, didn’t want to hear, even more so than that I was overlapping Ratoka and Kamil with each other, was being said by Earl Terejia.

“The sa thing?”

“Aye. You couldn’t place your trust in soone, and as a result he died. And now, you’ve beco afraid of trusting others. Isn’t that right, Eliza?”

As an old man, his gaze is quite sharp. However, there was no emotion expressed in his eyes. Not anger, not pity, nothing. I felt like all my strength left my body, and I collapsed onto the bed. I was afraid of eting Ratoka’s eyes. I covered my eyes with one arm, and took deep breaths.

“……Yes. That’s right.”

Once again, I have no choice other than to admit this as well.

“If even Claudia-dono didn’t notice anything, I didn’t think anyone else would. As expected, you know very well, Earl Terejia.”

The earl didn’t reply to my words.

“Even so, I didn’t even know it myself until you told it to so directly. I probably didn’t want to see or think about it myself.”

Even though I know it’s unseemly, my voice was trembling. On the contrary though, I think it would be funny if I could speak normally right now.

“……What do you an?”

My shoulder couldn’t help but jump at Ratoka’s sudden voice. I wasn’t able to read his emotions from just his voice alone.

This ti I smiled at myself in self-deprecation.

“I thought that it was aningless to trust people, until Kamil died. Actually, it might be better to say that I was being unreasonable. At any rate, the earl ant the thing about being unable to trust people.”

Ratoka was looking directly at . – In his eyes, I saw disdain.

“Just like the earl said, in the end Kamil died because I couldn’t trust him. When we were confused by the baboon magical beast pretending to imitate a human voice, Kamil protected and ended up dying. ……But if it hadn’t been for not trusting him, he probably wouldn’t have ended up dying.”

“……Then, are you now thinking about doing the opposite and relying on people more instead?”

“Ahh, that’s right.”

I nodded, while Ratoka closed his eyes. He’s taking deep breaths. He’s deeply furrowing his eyebrows, and I can see him clenching his fists tightly and attempting to suppress his emotions.

“-Is that so.”

That was all he squeezed out of himself. It was such a cold voice. It made feel like I was looking into a mirror, talking to a reflection of myself. His behavior where he’s freezing his emotions and that icy voice, it strangely resembles .

Suddenly Ratoka turned his back on . Rashiok standing in front of the door stepped aside. Ratoka quietly left the room now that the path to the door was now clear. Earl Terejia who had remained silent while watching us let out a sigh.

“As always, being so difficult.”

“…………”

“At any rate, since I was obviously summoned here for sothing, I felt like I had to speak up and say sothing about how I saw things, forgive .”

“……No need to say sorry. Please excuse Rashiok for his actions.”

At any rate, if the earl hadn’t spoken up, probably all three of us would have ended up leaving the room without saying anything. Maybe it would have co out of soday if we had just continued waiting in silence, but neither the earl nor I have the free ti for that.

After Earl Terejia left the room, only Rashiok and I remained. Rashiok approached and laid down at my feet. His ears and tail were drooping, and he was looking at with a gentle expression.

“……I’m not angry at you, you know.”

Rashiok nudged my feet with his nose as I spoke those words lacking in any energy.

“Oi! I thought that you were supposed to help if I told you everything I know!!”

The bandit in the interrogation room was crying and screaming. According to the soldiers, he had been shouting for all this ti. It seems that at first he had tried to beat down the door, but since it was too painful to do so, now all he was doing was shouting.

“Did he say anything useful?”

I had asked Gunther and Claudia to take charge after I had him moved to the interrogation room. I was told by my soldiers that the mont he entered the interrogation room again, the bandit voluntarily started offering information on the bandit group’s goal.

“……It seems that they were going to et up with a certain woman, in order to assist her.”

“A woman?”

“It seems that her na is Diferis. She’s currently in the Ogren domain. It’s a domain located in the heart of the Nordsturms’ seat of power.”
