Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 245

That day, Reiner was busy with paperwork in his office.

Among them are docunts and invoices for the annexe to welco Farah Renaloute, which will be completed in a short while.

Others include the effectiveness and proposals for the eventualisation of the bowl war.

Note that the proposal was from the Christy Trading Company.

The operation in the territory is not a problem at the mont.

However, the current managent of the territory involves more expenditure than inco, and in the long term there is a possibility that the funds will run out.

Reiner looks up to the sky, rubbing his eyes.

'Phew,...... we've had a lot on our plate recently. Even though I am doing this on the basis of the odds, if it is known that I have invested so much in my son, the nobles in the Imperial City will ridicule as a 'parent idiot'.

Reiner held a teacup in his hand to drink tea while contemplating various things.

At that mont, there was a dry crackling sound and only the handle of the teacup fell off.

Just as Reiner stares at the broken handle with a dubious look on his face, there is a knock on the door of his office.

Reiner huffs and looks a little surprised at the timing of the knock, but he quickly clears his throat and replies, and Garn enters the room.

Reiner-sama, Master Lid wants to see you urgently about ldy-sama. How shall I proceed?"

'ldy's case, ......? 'Yes, I understand. Send him right in."

"Understood."

Reiner showed Garn the broken teacup and told him to change the tea and to check on Nanalee, just in case.

He smiled, bailed, put away his tea and left the office.

Alone in his office, Reiner rembers the teacup with the broken handle and has a very bad feeling about it.

◇

I checked l's attribute qualities at the inn and imdiately returned to the mansion.

I then told my father through Garn that I needed to speak to him urgently.

After that, confirmation was received, and right now I and Deanna are about to enter the office together.

'Father, excuse ."

'Yes. Garn tells you have sothing urgent to tell about l."

He gets up from his desk and, as usual, moves to the sofa and sits down.

I, too, sit down on the sofa across the desk from him.

Diana is standing and sitting next to .

He looks at and asks a question with a slightly amused expression

'What's your urgent matter with l? Co to think of it, ...... you said you were going to check l's attribute qualities today. I don't suppose she had the sa qualities of all the attributes as you did?

'Well, you guessed right, Father. That's exactly what I've co to tell you.

My father's brow wrinkled in response to my answer, and he looked grim.

After a while, he rubbed the wrinkles between his eyebrows with his hands and turned his head down, muttering gravely, "Is this what you were holding earlier?

I was stunned and asked him a question.

'Well, Father, with all due respect, what is this "handle" thing ......?

'......, it's nothing. I'm not going to ask you to do anything. Don't worry about it. I'm sure that l has all the sa qualities as you do?"

I nodded slowly at Father's sharp gaze.

'Yes, I am certain of that. Diana here with . And Sandra, Ellen and Capella, who are not here, have also confird it. Of course, I've made sure that everyone is kept in the dark, and I've also strongly told l to only ntion the three attributes of 'fire', 'water' and 'lightning'.

'Right, okay. But ...... I didn't realise that even l has the qualities of all attributes. I am afraid for my children."

My father probably didn't think that l would have the qualities of all attributes.

He puts his hand on his forehead and makes a dumbfounded face.

But I also sense a hint of happiness in his voice.

I replied with a wry smile at such a father appearance.

'Hmm, but l was very happy.'

'Hah ...... well, if l is happy, good for her. But then, you'll have to train her in magic. After all, we'll have to ask you and Sandra to do it in earnest.'

Father muttered in a worried tone of voice, with a dumbfounded look on his face.

I answered confidently with my chest out in an attempt to reassure him.

"I'm sorry. I'm sure l will be pleased. As an older brother, I will responsibly teach l magic."

'...... That confidence is the least of my worries, though. If you and Sandra teach magic, even l is going to 'break with the mould'. Nannalee would roll her eyes if she heard."

With a hand on his forehead, Father mutters with a slightly distant look in his eyes.

But isn't there a better way to put it, like a cause for concern or making l 'unconventional'?

As expected, I replied with a slightly stern look on my face.

'What do you think I am, Father? That's a bit harsh. Besides, I'm sure Mother would be delighted with l's qualities of all attributes. Oh, and on a different note, I'd like to ask a favour of you and your mother.

'A favour?'"

Father is looking at with a doubtful look. I smiled and continued explaining.

'Yes,' 'In order to find out why l and I have the qualities of all the attributes, I would like you to let examine the qualities of Father and Mother as well.

'...... tell in detail.'

Afterwards, I told my father that when I checked the attributes and qualities of the children of the beastn, there was a bias according to race.

I also explained what I had discussed with Sandra and the others.

If my prediction and Sandra and the others are correct, the attributes and qualities of my father and mother will have a great deal to do with the qualities of l and .

When Father finishes listening, he puts on a grim face.

'Hmm, I see. But my only attribute is 'fire', is it not? Nunnalee can't use magic. I'm not even sure what attribute she has."

'Yes. That is why I think it is worth looking into. Besides, the attribute testing machine only requires you to place your hand on it, so it won't be a burden on Mother."

When Father heard my answer, he looked down with a thoughtful expression on his face.

At that ti, Diana, who was standing next to , muttered, "May I be so presumptuous?"

When Father asks her what's wrong, she replies with a sly smile.

'With all due respect, I too know that I should examine the qualities of both Rainer-sama and Nana Lee-sama in due course. I also thought I only had 'fire' as an attribute quality, but the other day I was surprised to find out that I have 'lightning' and 'ice' as well. If the developnt of magic is to be promoted in Bardia in the future, I believe that the reason why Master Rid and Lady l have the qualities of all attributes should be confird. Please forgive for my ...... outburst."

As soon as Deanna finishes, she bows in place.

The father gave a small nod, "Hm ......".

As if to help her, I continue my speech.

'Father, the identification of attribute qualities is essential to the developnt of magic. Please."

'...... I understand. I didn't say I wouldn't do it in the first place. But the identification of attributes is a big deal, so do it with care.

'Yes, Father, thank you very much !'

I bowed my head with a big smile on my face.

When I looked up, my father looked sowhat embarrassed, but then he imdiately assud a stern expression.

At that mont, there is a knock on the office door and Father answers, and Garn enters.

Garn enters, and places a cup of tea in front of us.

He then quietly overheard sothing to Father, smiled and left the office.

What did he overhear? Shortly afterwards, Father took a sip of his tea and looked at .

'Yes, the Attribute Qualities thing may be important, but in a little while the new house will be finished. Then Princess Farra Renaloute will marry you as your wife. When that happens, you will have to go to the Imperial Capital too, so keep that in mind. This ti, you won't be able to play the sa double as last ti."

Oh, yes. I am sorry. The Imperial Capital. ...... is the Imperial Capita! I'm going to the Imperial Capital?

The fact that it was so unexpected made raise my voice unintentionally.

My father looked at with a quizzical look on his face.

'...... Of course you will. Even though she's going to be your wife, Fara Renaloute is the princess of a neighbouring country. As long as you marry into the nobility of the Empire, it is a natural courtesy to go and greet the Emperor. Besides, the Renalute side probably has so diplomatic hopes for her, to a certain extent. It's necessary for both sides to save face. Or are you going to say sothing about only letting the princess go and not you?'

'Yes, no, I never ant it that way. No, no, I never ant that. I am sorry for being so upset."

I bow to my father and take a bow.

But although it is true that she is marrying , Fara is the princess of a neighbouring country.

If that happens, it would be natural to go and greet the emperor in the imperial capital, if I think about it.

However, I had completely forgotten about this.

I thought that if I ever had the chance to go to the imperial capital, it would be around the age of 16, when she would be attending an academy in the imperial capital.

The biggest problem is that in my mories of my previous life of Tokirella! in which the villainess and main heroine who lead to 'absolution', as well as the Princes who are capture targets, are also in the Imperial Capital.

At first I was thinking of avoiding absolution by getting along with them, but now they are moving various things around, so they have beco an irregular presence for that I'd rather not get close to.......

There were other major concerns that bothered .

That is, that Farrah, who would beco my wife, 'Tokirella! was not present in the ga.

Therefore, I couldn't imagine what would happen when I t , the villainess, the capture target and the main heroines.

If possible, I would have liked to et her after accumulating more powers.

But I thought it couldn't be helped if it ca to this, and I was ready to protect my family, Fara

I was determined to protect the Bardia territory, and when I looked up, I answered my father with determination.

'I understand ...... about the Imperial Capital.'

'Ummm......, but it's not sothing you say with a face like you're on your way to the death."

My father flinched at my determined expression, unsure of my intentions.

◇ ◇

Afterwards, I would inform my father about the situation of the beast children and the progress of the business plan.

I then proceeded to ask Father about a matter that Cross had previously suggested and asked him for help with.

'Father, so how is the matter of the establishnt of the 'Second Order' that we were discussing before?

'Yes. Considering the number of people in this size and the nature of the work they perform, they will eventually be asked to work as the 'Second Order of Bardia', which you will lead. The timing will depend on their ability, but I will allow them to prepare for the establishnt."

'Thank you very much for your ...... ministry.'

Yes, Cross had previously advised that it would be better to establish it as the 'Second Knighthood of Bardia' because of the scale of welcoming the children of the beastn and the nature of the activities they aim to carry out.

So I had approached my father about it at that ti.

And now he has given us permission to do so, albeit provisionally.

If it becos a knighthood, we will be able to do more things in the territory.

This is a big step forward.

I was smiling a big smile, when my father suddenly asked .

'So ......, is there anything else you forgot to tell ?'

'Yeah, ......? Well, I don't think there was .......

I think back to what my father told , but I can't think of anything in particular.

I'm thinking of a new magic based on the 'electric field' that Aria and the others have taught , but there's no prospect of putting it to practical use, so I don't have to tell you yet.

As I ponder this, my father smiles at .

By the way, that smile is sothing he does when he's angry.

I couldn't imdiately think of anything, so I fought.

'Well, um, Father, what's the matter with you all of a sudden?'

'Hmph ...... good guts. But I've been inford that you've done sothing else on the military stage at the bowl battle, you know?

At Father's words, I huffed and turned to Deanna, who was standing next to .

Coughing, she mutters sothing a little clumsy.

'I'm sorry, . But I don't want you to do sothing dangerous like that again. I know it is beyond my position and very presumptuous of , but please, ......, please reflect on this matter."

'Oh, haha, ...... you're right. Yes, Deanna is not that bad."

As soon as she finished, she bowed deeply and bowed.

I asked Deanna to raise her head while I spun the words.

But it was Father who answered.

'Yes,...... it's you who's to bla, Rid. How many tis do I have to tell you,...... or, if it cos to this, I'll tell you again and again until you understand.'

"What are you doing, ......?"

He grinned at as I fought my way out of my fear at his aweso power.

'All right, then, I'll tell you, ......, you're an idiot, son!".

At that mont, the whole house roared with a shout so loud that it leaked out of the office.
