Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 301

The first two days since I ca to Renalute have been very busy and I haven't been able to do anything I personally wanted to do.

On the first day, I spent the entire morning and afternoon confirming the arrangents for the reception to be held in the Honmaru Goten and the ceremony to be held at the shrine.

The second day was the sa as the first day, and in the evening there was a dinner party at the State Guest House with the leading mbers of the royal family at Renalute.

I thought that it would be better to hold the reception for the family mbers and the friendship party, but it seems that as a result of the mixing of various ideas, this did not work out that way.

Tomorrow is the day of the ceremony, and I'm attending a dinner party at the guest house with my father and l.

But, you know, dark elf girls around the sa age as Farrah and girls a little older than her gather around a lot.

I was a little troubled by the way the adult mbers of the nobility introduced to their daughters.

I wonder if it's all right for to do this when I've just married a Renalute princess called Fara.

The two of them are surrounded by adult nobles and their 'sons', the beautiful boy dark elves, as well as .

Father must not think well of them, because he smiles and occasionally twitches his eyebrows at the blatant response that seems to be 'aid at l'.

l has Danae and Diana by her side.

On my father's side, there is also Cross from the knighthood as an escort, so there will be no problem even if sothing should happen.

By the way, Capella is standing by my side.

He is a forr mber of the Renalute's dark side, so I am very grateful that he follows up on the faces and nas of the nobles who co one after another.

On the occasion that the response to the Huaraches and Dark Elf girls who co to greet has settled down, I picked up the glass of water and asked Capella as I sipped it.

'Phew. ...... I think we've finally reached an end. But still, I wonder if the Dark Elven nobles and girls are okay with coming to so openly. Well, there's no His Majesty Elias or Fara in the hall.'

Capella showed a pretence of being troubled by the intent of my question, then huffed.

'Excuse , Master Rid, are you familiar with Dark Elven Royal culture"

'Well, I don't know that much about it. Well, the princess will be the first woman to carry the 'king's' child. I've also heard that the birth rate of dark elves is low, so the royal family has a second wife'.

To his question, I thought for a mont as if trying to recall before answering.

I had learned so things about Renalute culture before my previous eting with Farah.

At that ti, the birth rate of Dark Elves also taught him about the idea of side wives.

In the Magnolia Empire, polygamy is also permitted for royalty and nobility.

However, in order to ensure that power is not concentrated in the hands of certain nobles, marriages between nobles must be 'authorised' by the royal family after a strict screening process.

In order to prevent the power from expanding, it is said that the screening process is even stricter for a second 'wife'.

In this sense, it would be hard for an Imperial nobleman to receive a second wife as his official wife, unless he has sothing to show for it.

Even if there is a difference in status between a commoner and an Imperial noble, an application is still necessary, so it is said that in most cases they do not bother to take the form of a marriage, but 'surround her as a mistress'.

In the past, after a marriage between a commoner and a noble, it was found out that the commoner was actually the bastard son of a certain noble.

As a result, it is said that a marriage between nobles was once consummated, and this was regarded as a problem.

Since then, even marriages between nobles and commoners are strictly scrutinised.

If a child is born between a noble and a commoner and the child is born out of wedlock, the child is treated as a 'commoner' and can't marry a noble.

Capella nodded at my answer and continued.

'I see. However, I think I may have explained a little too much about Renaloute's mistresses."

'Oh, really?'

I asked, and he began to explain.

Like the Empire, there is a review process, but because of the low birth rate of Dark Elves, the Hua family is also said to be more likely to be approved in respect of side rooms.

As a result, it seems that a difference of opinion regarding side chambers has arisen between Renalute and Magnolia, and everyone is gathering at my place for a social gathering.

I sigh in disgust when I hear the story.

'I see. It is only natural that different history, ethnic groups and cultures have different ways of thinking. ......"

At the sa ti as I muttered this, the royal family, led by King Elias, arrived at the venue, and the atmosphere of the place changed slightly.

When King Elias found , he ca imdiately with a bold smile on his face.

'My son-in-law, are you enjoying the social gathering?'

'Yes, I am. 'Thank you for creating such an occasion for us.'

As soon as I answer King Elias with a quick nod, I glance at Fara, who is waiting by his side, but for so reason her expression seems a little darker....... I wonder what's wrong.

When I think this, King Elias grins and emits a whisper that only those in the vicinity can hear.

'By the way, my son-in-law. Have you found a maiden you like in this place?'

'Hm?"

I am puzzled, not imdiately understanding what he ans.

But King Elias continued to speak.

'Well, from the looks of it, you don't have any girls that interest you, do you?

'......� No, no, I am married to the Princess Farah. With all due respect, I would never pretend to be anyone other than the princess.

When I finally understood his intentions, I looked surprised and imdiately shook my head in denial

I clearly conveyed in a strong tone of voice that I had no intention of taking a wife other than Farah.

At that mont, I felt that Farah's face, which had been looking a little gloomy, turned a little red and then brightened up.

However, King Elias' reaction was not good, and he had a confused expression on his face.

At that mont, Mother Eltia, who was standing next to him, quickly nodded her head.

'With all due respect, I believe there is a slight discrepancy between what His Majesty Elias and Master Rid think."

'What do you an, Eltia?'

King Elias looks at her with a curious expression on his face.

Mother Eltia gave a little smile, then continued her words.

'In Dark Elven royalty, a concubine is a must, but I have heard that this is not the case in the Empire. I have heard that it is difficult for a nobleman to have a side wife unless he has sothing to show for it, so I doubt that you would consider a woman other than Fara as your wife.'

'I see. The dark elves are also faced with the problem of birth rate. Therefore, in the case of the son-in-law, there is a high possibility that the application for a 'side wife' will be approved."

Having heard their conversation, I finally understood the intention of this social gathering held at the guest house.

In other words, for Renalute and Bardia to maintain a permanent connection, and Farah.

In other words, in order for Renalute and Bardia to keep a permanent connection, I and Fara, or to put it bluntly, and the Dark Elves, want to have a 'child' in the future, no matter what.

That's why I assigned a Dark Elf girl other than Fara as a candidate for a consort.

At that mont, a low, heavy voice was directed towards King Elias.

'I am not thinking about that matter at the mont. Your Majesty Elias.'

The voice was, needless to say, my father.

He may have sensed the conversation between and King Elias, and although he is smiling, there is sothing about him that gives off a frightening atmosphere.

'Oh, this is Lord Rainer, are you enjoying yourself?'

'It's been a pleasure ...... to receive so many greetings for my daughter, and I really appreciate it.'

'Ha-ha-ha, I'm sure you're right. There were many people who wanted to say hello to you and ldy. So, what do you an by not thinking about my son-in-law?'

King Elias is also speaking with a smile on his face, but his eyes are not smiling.

'As I told you, Your Majesty Elias. My son Rid, in fact, has already received several offers of marriage from the Imperial nobility, but I have turned them all down.'

"See ......."

("I've never heard of this before...")I was inwardly surprised, but sohow I managed not to show it in my expression and listened to their conversation.

The marriage between Rid and Princess Fara itself is a special case, so it's only natural for her to refuse. Well, if Rid himself has a partner he really wants to marry, then there might be room for consideration."

When he says this, my father smiles and turns his gaze to .

Of course, having no such partner and not even thinking about it, I can only giggle and say "haha ......".

The king Elias nodded, looking at us like that.

'Hm, I understand. But if the son-in-law is soone you really care about, it's possible ......?'

'Ha-ha ...... your majesty Elias. When I was about to end the conversation, King Elias seed to have thought of sothing and glanced at Asuna, who was standing next to Fara, and then shifted his gaze to .

'Then how about 'Asuna Lanmark' over there? Her martial arts skills are perfect, as she is capable of defeating her son-in-law in an imperial match. What do you think, my son-in-law?"

" ......� Goho-goho ‼."

I was astonished by the unexpected words, and then I coughed and swallowed.

I look at Fara and she seems to be muttering sothing in a whisper.

'If Rid-sama insists on asking for Asuna, I will ......

However, I cannot even hear what she is saying.

Looking at Asuna, she seems to be shaking her head slightly to the side, hiding her face with her military cap.

An atmosphere of sothing indescribable begins to flow between us as a result of King Elias's statent.

However, he does not seem to mind and asks .

'What do you think, my son-in-law? And I don't an right now. In the future, if you feel like it, you can pay .......'

Hearing King Elias' words, I begin to hear sothing snap inside .

After taking a deep breath, I smile and slowly answer.

'...... Father, co on. I am here to pick up Farah. As I told you at the beginning, I have no intention of being present for anyone else but her. I love only one Fara. If you continue this story any longer, even if it is your father, I will get really angry ...... just like that ti."

As soon as I finish, I start to put magic power into my whole body.

At that mont, a gentle wind rises in the supposedly windless guest house, causing the area to rustle.

My mood changes, and King Elias, noticing the change, huffs and coughs.

'I'm sorry, my son-in-law. I think I have gone a little too far in my mischievousness."

'No, ...... I am sorry for my rudeness too. But I have no intention of having any other wife than Fara. I hope you understand.'

Uh-huh. I understand. But to be thought of so highly by my son-in-law, ...... my daughter is a lucky woman."

King Elias then turned his gaze to Fara.

'Yes, yes. I am ...... a fortunate one."

She blushed and replied, then turned her head down, covering her ears with her hands.

Apparently, she had difficulty controlling her ears.

At that mont, the sound of clapping hands echoed around the area.

When I turned around to where I heard the sound, Queen Liesel, who was there, smiled at .

'Hmm, I understand what Rid and Rainer-sama are thinking. Let's leave the difficult talk for now and enjoy the rest of the evening.'

At her words, King Elias nodded, smiled and shifted his gaze to us.

'Yes, let's do that. 'My son-in-law, Lord Reiner, I'm sorry for taking up so much of your ti. Please enjoy yourselves after this.'

'It's outrageous, . Thank you for your consideration.

At his words, the father answers and bows his head quickly, and I bow as I follow.

King Elias then proceeded to the back of the hall with Queen Liesel and Mother Eltia.

By the way, at this ti, l was happily looking around the hall with Lacis.

If Leicis was by l's side, she would certainly be safe in this place.

While King Elias and I were questioning and answering, I was a little taken aback by Reyesis, who had moved to l's side.

At that mont, Father muttered in my ear.

'Rid, that was a very good challenge to His Majesty Elias. I will return to l's side.'

'Yes, Father.'

When he had finished, he gave a quick nod to Farah and walked straight to where l was.

I realised that it was just and Fara who were left in this place.

In addition, only Capella and Asuna, our bodyguards, are left.

After a short pause, I cleared my throat and smiled at Farah, who was blushing and lying on her face.

'Well then, let's look around together, shall we?"

'Yes."

In this way, the social gathering with the royal family held at the guest house ended successfully(?)
