Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 128

The next day, I , Deanna, Garn, and Capella gathered in one room to discuss various ideas for the building of the mansion.

Of course, we also gathered the opinions of the servants, including Danae, and the people who work in the mansion.

Whenever I put forward a proposal, Garn would add to and correct it.

Deanna points out the security aspects.

While Capella summarizes like a secretary, he also touches on the Japanese-style room of Renalute culture, garden, planting cherry trees, and so on.

There were hot springs, a large bathhouse, a training area, a dojo, the workshop of Ellen and the others, the office of the Christie Trading Company, the maids' quarters, and many other things.

At that mont, Garn suddenly asked a question.

'Rid-sama, I know this is a little late, but what are you planning to do with the budget for the building of the mansion? If you are going to do all this, it must be quite a lot of money. ......"

"I don't know the exact budget yet, because my father is in charge of it. But if we make an impossible request at the beginning, it will be easier to pass the later terms, right? So I want to force this initial idea to be bigger than it is."

Upon hearing my words, Garn pretended to be impressed, but his face imdiately turned dubious.

What you say is true, Mister Rid, but from whom did you learn such a thing?"

"Heh......⁉"

I hurriedly fumbled with Garn's unexpected words.

"No, that's ...... right, Chris, I learned it from Chris. She told that the first rule of business is to make a difficult or high offer and see how it goes."

I hastily decided to get over the situation by pretending that Chris had taught how to negotiate a deal.

It was not out of place.

I apologized to her in my mind.

I was sorry, Chris.

I see, that Chris ...... but to imdiately put that into action against your own father, Rid is a terrifying ...... Reiner is a head case."

The other two nodded quietly in agreent with Garn's words.

I an, did my father have his head in the sand about what I do?

No, I think there were definitely a few tis when he was holding his head.

Yes, I should thank my father the next ti I see him and ask him for his cooperation in the future.

He might get mad at , though.

Just as I was thinking that, there was a knock at the door of my room.

"Yes?"

"Ni-chan, Cookie's not here. ......"

When I answered, I heard l's sad voice.

I hurried to open the door and there stood l, her eyes red with tears, and Danae comforting her.

"l⁉ What's wrong?"

"Ugh,...... the cookies didn't co back,......"

......? The cookie?

When I looked at l, I saw that Biscuit was indeed on l's shoulder, but Cookie was nowhere to be found.

Cookie seems to be licking l's tears and comforting her.

Cookie is not there? What is wrong with him?

Just as I was thinking that, I heard a woman scream from inside the mansion, "Kyaaaaaaaahhh⁉.

I was startled by the scream and, leaving the crying l in Danae's care, ran toward the front door of the house where the scream seed to have originated.

Behind were the people I had been eting with.

When I arrived at the entrance, there was Cookie, covered in mud and about the size of a lion.

His pitch-black body was even darker with mud.

"Oh, my God! '

"Please don't co here, Cookie, you'll stain the carpet in the mansion. "

'Oh no⁉ Who do you think is going to clean it?"

"Please go take a bath before entering the house.'

The servants are screaming at the muddy cookies.

It seems that they ca in through the entrance that was open while the maids were cleaning, and the carpet was indeed blackened with mud.

From their point of view, it must have been a terrible thing to have their carpets stained with mud right in front of their eyes.

The sight of this made my shoulders relax a little.

Everyone who rushed to the scene with was feeling the sa way.

At that mont, Cookie looked at and roared.

"What's wrong, Cookie?"

Cookie roared and went out of the house.

I hurriedly chased after him.

The maids I passed in pursuit looked relieved that Cookie was gone.

I, Deanna and Capella, who had followed behind , chased after Cookie.

He was only running as fast as he wanted us to follow him.

I wonder what's wrong with Cookie? He seems to be telling us to follow him.

"Does he have a goal ......?"

Deanna replied to my words.

After following him for a while, Cookie stopped.

I was at a place a little further away from the back of the mansion where I used to practice my magic.

I could see the mansion from where I was now.

I caught up with him, caught my breath a little, and said,

"So, what are you ...... doing ......?"

, "Nn~!""

He stopped and there was a puddle, or rather a pool of hot water, with steam rising from it.

When I tried to get closer, Capella stopped .

Rid -sama, there may be dangerous gases in the hot springs, so I will check first.

"What? Oh, I see.I will Be careful."

Capella had and Deanna standing by, and as we approached the pool of hot water, she squatted down to check the sll and temperature.

Then she put hot water on hand and licked it several tis.

I looked at Deanna's face and her eyes were full of anticipation.

As we watched Capella, he stood up and turned around.

". This is unquestionably a hot spring. The temperature seems a little high, but if you cool it down a little like Renalute, it should be fine. Just to be sure, we will need to have soone go into the hot spring and check that there is nothing wrong with body for a few days, but it probably won't be a problem."

"Oh⁉ Thanks to Cookie, we have a hot spring."

"Nyah."

I'm so moved by Capella's words that I talk to Cookie, but he doesn't seem interested.

Co to think of it, many cats don't like water or bathing, right?

When I thought of that, I heard a joyful voice.

"Kyaaaa, Rid-sama, it's a hot spring, a hot spring , Cookie-sama, as expected of the monster who serves Rid-sama and ldy-sama, Rid-sama, let's imdiately pull this hot spring to the inside of the mansion.'

'No, I'm sure Father will be angry if we don't do that when he cos back, right? I'm sure he'll be pissed if we don't do that when he gets back. That way we can confirm what Capella said."

Deanna looked a little shaken at my words, but quickly returned to her cheerful face and said

"I understand. Then I will imdiately bring the tub to check and inspect the hot water. Please help , Capella."

"The sooner you inspect the hot spring, the better. If it is dangerous, we will have to deal with it accordingly. ......"

If it is dangerous, we will have to deal with it accordingly. ......

Capella seed to have agreed to the inspection because of Deanna's montum.

The four of us, including Cookie, went back to the mansion and reported to everyone that Cookie had found a hot spring.

Needless to say, the maid and the others were overjoyed at the news of the hot spring discovery, and their attitude toward Cookie changed dramatically.

Cookie seed to have a sowhat smug expression on his face at that ti.

But he seed to have forgotten that he was full of mud.

The ti of judgent for Cookie's cri of covering the carpet with mud ca at the sa ti as a girl appeared on the scene.

"Cookie, I found you! You shouldn't cause trouble for everyone with your mud all over the carpet, shouldn't you?"

'...⁉ Nyah⁉"

"We're here to help you, Lady ldy!"

The maids, who had been afraid of Cookie earlier, no longer seed to have any fear of him after he helped dig up the hot spring.

The maids, led by l, took him to the washing area.

I spoke softly to him.

'Good luck, cookie.......'

"Nyaa !"

I heard later that he was watched over by l and Biscuit, and the maids washed the mud off him very carefully.

◇

"....? Chris-sama, do you have a cold? Are you all right?"

"Thank you, Emma. It was kind of sudden. ...... sneeze "

Chris's sudden "sneeze" caused Emma to have a worried expression on her face.

Chris is not feeling particularly ill, so she has no particular idea what caused the sneeze.

She huffed as she tilted her head and wondered what was wrong, and muttered in her mind.

'No way, Master Rid has done sothing involving again⁉...... that can't be right.'

She chuckled and said, "It's not ......, is it?" she was a little worried.
