NTR: I became a noble? Chapter 28: Crime

Alice and Roan were busy conversing with few others and he was naturally left out, having nothing better to do he decided give socializing a try.

...

Tasting the bitter alcohol, he joined a group of people chatting together. They were happy to have him join them.

A group of five people which including Terias had beca six.

The conversation or to be more exact a discussion of a kind began.

The topics changed from ti to ti, different opinions on different subjects.

...

Everyone was drinking and so was Terias, he had little experience with alcohol and being the strongest at the table made him carefree.

Although his ability was working, as it kept reminding him of his body's status.

[Drunk 20%]..

[Drunk 35%]..

Drunk 50%]..

Drunk 70%]...

...

Perhaps he should not have drunk any alcohol, or maybe he should have never joined the Hike.

The alcohol had done a number on him, the people who were drinking with him were fine.

He woke up groggy, his vision hazy, unable to clearly see and hear at the mont.

Terias did not rember himself leaving the table, neither did he have the idea of his location.

He could hardly see, the place was dark, at least that was what his hungover eyes could see.

The place was silent, nothing was audible and indicated the presence of another person or even a creature near him.

...

"It seems you are awake Viscount" A crazy but excited female voice said to him.

He tried moving his hands but his hands were locked with a rope. He was laid down on a soft material as he struggled to free his hands.

"You are lady... Alice ? Why?" Terias was finally able to adjust his eyes to the dimly lit room, though the person in front of him gave him another horrible surprise, just after his kidnapping.

'Did she co to know my connections with Serena? Nevermind, she'd have guessed that much but why this attempt at ?'

Terias thought that Alice had beca aware of his connection with Serena and thus she did sothing with the alcohol and then this.

But he quickly discarded the idea as Alice had no reason to kidnap him. She could keep a distance from him or even use him to lay a trap for Serena.

...

There was no need for Alice to lock him away like this. Not when there was no bad blood between them.

'Bad blood? Was it the previous Viscount's doing?'

He made a guess as that was the best he could do for a mont, waiting for Alice to reply.

"What ? Are you done thinking of the possible reasons for my act?" She asked curiously, half expecting a reply from Terias.

"Why? I have no idea. " Terias had a little idea but whatsoever he had learned from those cri movies was to never be honest and absolutely never confess.

It was better for the person in authority to directly accuse you than you yourself confessing to sothing.

...

Anyways, he was only a little spy from Serena's side and not a really bad one. He was only supposed to indulge together with Alice and not to bring so confidential info.

"Of course you have no idea. Let help you to rember the important stuff. "

Alice said with a smirk as she had put out a paper with a circle and a Pentagon inside it, with so more shapes inside it.

"This rings a bell? The kind and honest Viscount Terias? " Alice held the paper to his face as she gave an evil laugh, though her voice only sounded hot and not really evil.

...

'What's this? A ritual. Why the fuck is this idiot waving it in my face? How would I know what this diagram is for. '

Just awoke from being drunk, he had now realised that he was kidnapped and that too by the Earl's wife, Alice.

The reason for kidnapping? So graph, circles and Pentagon on the paper.

"mmm, I seem to rember sothing. "

Terias mumbled as he forced himself to concentrate and call upon the vague image of the thing that resembled the picture on paper.

Alice had also shifted her face from the frowning and interrogating face to the happy and proud face of accomplishing a confession.

Her face turned bright and her lips lifted up in smile, as she waited for Terias to finally confess his cris.

...

The cri was a really severe one, enough for Terias to be removed from his noble title. She wanted to use the cri evidence as her blackmail item and force Terias to co under her.

"Yes, yeahh.. Is this trigonotry? "

Terias finally rembered where he had seen the graph like thing, it was in his college years, a few months before his murder in the previous life.

'Is this what people ant when they said mathematics is everywhere? '

He rembered the words from his teachers as they said " mathematics is everywhere in the life and it follows you. "

"Trigonotry? What the fuck is trigonotry?!! "

Alice had her happy face turned to a confused then into an angry and humiliated one, she felt like that the man in front of her was teasing and humiliating her.

"Haha haa, do you think you'd be able to escape from here? Is it because of your butler John? Or is it your confidence in your personal strength. "

She laughed off at his attempt to humiliate her. She did not know that Terias genuinely answered her question.

...

She gnashed her teeth, ready to give Terias a good idea of what he has beco a part of.

"Let make it clear, you are fed a tier 3 dicine. You would not be able to use your ki for another day and the sa goes for your physical strength. "

She said with a smirk, her proud face beca more confident. She believed the details were enough to put pressure on Terias.

The tier three dicine was a big deal as it worked on level three warriors very well which ant, right now, Terias was really vulnerable.
