Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 25

That day, Father and Chris ca back from the imperial capital.

Father was as normal, but Chris was exhausted.

Rid, I did my very best. ......"

Chris' first words upon returning were in a quiet voice, but Chris' face was full of strength and confidence.

However, perhaps a nervous breakdown occurred, and she collapsed in the mansion and fell asleep.

I was a little panicked, but I laid Chris down on the bed in the guest room and imdiately called a doctor to take a look at her. He diagnosed that it was due to fatigue and she would get better after a short sleep.

"The Empress liked Chris so much that she had business etings with her the whole ti we were there. I guess she couldn't rest because of my presence on the way. Let her sleep in guest room for a while."

When Father heard Chris' diagnosis, he told the maids to treat her as a guest and to contact the Christie Trading Company to let them know what had happened.

"Rid, I need to talk to you as well. Co to the office after this."

I understand. May I ca now?"

"Okay, let's go."

When I went out of the guest room where I left Chris , l was waiting for .

."Welco to the back , father , "

"Mm-hmm."

He bowed his head and greeted l , but father did not change his expression and his ears turned red.

"Elf lady, is she all right?"

'Yes, she is just tired, she is sleeping comfortably in guest room right now."

"Is that so? I've always wanted to have a talk with an elf lady."

"I'll introduce you to her next ti,"

Really? Thanks ,brother!

" I'd better get going."

Father, who had just cleared his throat, had his ears red just a few minutes ago, but he is back to normal.

I think he was staring at a little.

"Yes, Father," I replied and said to l, "See you later," and this ti I entered the Office with Father.

In the office, there is a desk for working on docunt and a set of sofa and table for visitors.

He asked to sit on the sofa.

Father also sat on the sofa, so we were sitting in front of each other across the table.

“I'm a little tired after ti in the capital.”

"Thank you for your hard work on your duties."

'Mm, did you read the letter I sent you earlier?"

"Yes, you ntioned that you had sothing important to discuss with ."

Father is leaning against the back of the sofa, looking at with a blank expression.

I wondered if he was probing about sothing. I was about to call out to him when there was a knock at the door of office.

"Enter," my father replies, and in there Garn, who has brought a cup of tea.

"Excuse , I have brought you so tea."

The tea Garn had placed in front of and father was steaming.

While Garn was putting the tea on the table, he was observing without saying anything.

I wondered what was going on.

When he finished putting down the tea, he was about to leave the room, but my father stopped him.

"There are so things I would like to hear your opinion on. So, please stay and listen to what I am going to tell . Also, please make sure that no one is to enter the office for a while."

"I understand. I will inform everyone imdiately. Please wait a mont."

Garn left the office to give instructions to the other servants .

It was just and father again, and the atmosphere was heavy.

"Rid."

"Yes, ."

'Why have you changed so much as a person?"

"What do you an?"

“ I was exerting a certain amount of pressure on you earlier, and I am still doing it . But you are looking at without hesitation. I don't think six year child can endure it . And the sa goes for the products . There is no book in the house that contains that kind of knowledge. Can you explain that?"

I had never talked about this kind of thing before, so I didn't expect my father to go so deep into it.

I thought desperately about what to say and how to get out of it.

After much thought, I gave up. If I said sothing appropriate to soone as intense as my father, I might be restricted from taking action.

Let's talk honestly here.

Just when I had made that decision, there was a knock at the door.

Garn had returned.

"I have inford the others in the house ".

"I understand. Co on, Rid, let's continue our conversation. "

Garn stood at the door with a blank expression on his face.

I took a deep breath and made up my mind to speak.

"It may sound absurd, but I will tell you everything. But if you don't mind, I'd like to ask Garn to leave the room."

"Why?"

"I will tell you everything, but I want you to listen to what I have to say and then decide whether you want to tell Garn or not. If that is not possible, I will keep my mouth shut."

mories of my previous life ca back to and mixed with Rid's mories.

And it would be the first thing that he would not believe when I told him that this knowledge could change the world.

But even so, I think the only person I can freely share this information with is my father.

"I understand. I'm sorry, Garn, but you'll have to leave the room too. I will call on you again as soon as we are done talking."

"Yes, sir."

Garn bowed and left the office.

"Now that we've gotten this far" let's hear what you have to say. Now let's talk about your secret. "

My father sipped a cup of tea on the table.

He kept his eyes fixed on , waiting for to speak.

I carefully began to tell my father the truth.

When I woke up in bed on the day I collapsed in the garden, mories of what appeared to be a previous life in another world ca back to .

Then, those mories mixed with the mories of the six-year-old Rid, and a new identity, Rid, was born.

Since the mories of the past life had more built-up experiences and personalities than Rid's, who had lived in this world until the age of 6, his personality was probably based on the mories of the past life.

However, this is not to say that the six-year-old Rid has no mories or feelings.

As Rid, I feel guilty for what I did to my sister ldi.

What he did to the maids in the mansion. Above all, the mories of those days when he had cursed himself for being helpless and unable to do anything about Mother, who was on the verge of death.

And that is why I have a strong will to protect my mother and l.

I also told him that as Rid, I respected him.

I told him that I wanted to be like father, Rainer, when I looked back into his mory.

But that is why he beca despairing because he couldn't do anything, and his heart was so broken that he beca desperate.

Reiner, my father, just kept quiet and listened to .

A few monts passed in silence, and after a little while, my father suddenly muttered, "

"I'm sorry."

My father, who was a strict man, was bowing in front of .

I was surprised by this fact and panicked.

"Father, raise your head!"

Reiner kept his head down and continued talking.

“I had seen my wife Nanalee fall sick in bed, and in combination with that, I had seen Rid getting wilder and wilder, but I assud that it was just his own qualities, that he was just being rough. And I didn't know that there was such despair in Rid's heart. No, I didn't try to understand. I should have dealt with him more."

"Father,......”

I don't know why.

When I heard Father's words, I felt a sense of relief and comfort.

Was that Rid's feeling of being able to know that he was noticed and that he was loved properly?

I realized that tears were streaming down my cheeks. I wiped the tears away with the sleeve of my dress.

"Father, please raise your head I appreciate your feelings very much. I don't know if this is the right thing to say, but I am a fortunate one."

Father looked up in reaction to my words.

My father, who normally has no expression on his face, looked at with a mysterious expression on his face.

It was like " See you later!" and I laughed.

"What's wrong?"

My father beca even more mysterious. The more mysterious he beca, the more I almost smiled because of the gap between him and .

"I was so embarrassed that I almost laughed. I'm sorry, but when you , who usually has no expression on your face, looks so mysterious, the atmosphere is so different from his usual...."

I finally burst out laughing.

At first, Rainer was a bit puzzled, but then he said , "Well, yes, that's right. He began to laugh, perhaps ims he was caught by my appearance."

It was probably the first ti the two of us had laughed like this. Their laughter was short but joyful.

"Father, I am terribly sorry."

"It's all right, don't worry about it. From now on, when it's just the two of us, let's talk a little more relaxed way with each other."

We laughed so hard that we both felt that what had been troubling seed small, and the atmosphere in the room changed dramatically.

It was kind of like a real talk.

"But do you believe every word I say?"

Contrary to my expectation, , Rainer, did not deny anything about "mories of a previous life."

"I can see from your current behavior that your story makes a lot of sense. If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't believe you. That's how out of character you are, Rid."

"You're out of the ordinary. ......"

"Is there anything else you haven't told ?"

"I think I've been experiencing this world through the mories of my previous life."

“In this world where there is no concept of video ga, I thought of a way to say it in a way that would be easy to understand and ca up with the term "pseudo-experience."

"You an you've already experienced in a previous life the world you're in right now, ?"

"Yes, and the knowledge of this world seems to be connected to the knowledge of the world that i obtained through pseudo-experience."

"I see. That's the root of your extraordinary nature, isn't it?"

The two are a father and son who seem to be on good terms with each other from every angle.

"Yes, I think so. And, as an update, there is a dicine that I have developed without telling you, using this knowledge i obtained . I would like you to try it."

"It depends on what the drug is. What kind of dicine ?"

When it ca to Nanalee, Reiner's brow furrowed and his face took on its usual tough expression.

"Well, you see, , this is a dicine to restore magic power."

"magic restorative dicine !?"

The shock was so great that he I swallowed my tea.

However, there is a possibility that a magic restorative could help Nanalee.

It's what the Reiner has been looking for all along.

"I purchased the raw materials and asked Sandra to help create it. I have confird that the special magic I have developed with Sandra will increase or decrease the magic power value."

"Did you an to say that you confird an increase or decrease in the magical power value with special magic?"

Rainer was dubious about the unfamiliar term "magic value.

Afterwards, my explanation caused a dubious look to cross his face

In this world, there was no way to asure the amount of magical power in nurical form.

Reiner muttered in disgust at the fact that his own son and his tutor had succeeded in nurating it.

“Sandra was ......."

When Sandra was kicked out of the lab, he reached out to her, thinking that her excellence might lead to sothing sohow.

He never dread it would be linked to tutoring his son, though.

"But, the magic restorative would help Nanalee. I thank you, Rid."

Reiner thanked sincerely and was about to bow, but I stopped him.

"This dicine will only extend a person's life. There are other cures."

The drug that can be used to " extend the life" for the incurable "magic depletion disease" alone is a great discovery, but there is a completely different drug that can be used to cure this disease.

'...... is that knowledge cos from, the pseudo-experience you were talking about earlier?'

'That is correct. Father.

'This is sothing I can't even talk to Garn about,......."

Garun is the most trusted steward in the Bardia family.

But it is not absolute.

The more secrets you share, the higher the risk of leakage.

Reiner, who is involved in politics, is aware of this.

"The raw material for the magic restorative is called "moonlight grass. However, the way to obtain it is limited and it has not been cultivated here . As far as I am concerned, I will not announce this dicine until mother recovers or the cure is completed."

Reiner listened to what I had to say, thought about the problems and solutions, and proceeded to discuss them with with his hand on his brow.

"I'm sure that if people knew about it, there would be overfishing and the price would rise sharply. I'll pretend I didn't hear about the magic restorative. You can do it on your own, and when it is finished, bring it to with an after-the-fact report. Also, discuss with in advance what you can do, such as cultivating in our territory. I can generally give you permission."

"And Chris is the one who supplies you with the moonlight grass ?"

"Yes. , she is our only source for now."

"Hmm. The cause of the information leak is not only by human. If it is known that the raw material "moonlight grass" is purchased in Bardia territory, there will surely be people who will search behind the scenes. It would probably be difficult for Chris alone to deal with that. I'll make my move."

"Thank you very much. Also, please give a little more ti regarding the cure."

"If you can save Nanalee, I will help you as much as I can. I will do everything I can to help."

"Yes, I understand. ...... that's all I have to say."

I had not planned on it, but I was truly glad to be able to talk to Rainer.

I am so glad to have such a trustworthy person on my side.

And , I admired him as father as much as six-year-old Past Rid did .
