Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 304

After the ceremony, we start moving from the main hall of the shrine to the reception hall.

At this point, we were again the centre of attention by many mbers of the royal family and the residents of Renalute, and Fara and I chuckled as we walked along.

When we eventually reach the carriage waiting for us outside the shrine, we get on carefully so as not to damage our costus.

'Fara, give your hand.'

Saying this, I held out my hand to Farah, who was dressed in white.

She took my hand and smiled happily.

'Yes, thank you."

'Watch your step, please."

With my help, Fara got on the carriage and a yellow scream echoed around the area from where the residents of Renalute had gathered.

When I looked in the direction of the screams to see what was going on, I saw a group of dark elf won with big smiles on their faces.

Looking at the appearance of the won with the bright screams, it seems that they don't seem to be in any particular trouble.

At any rate, I waved to the smiling girls.

Then another scream echoed around the area from the girls.

Why? When I tilted my head in that direction, Fara, who was sitting next to , tugged on my hand.

'Mmmm. Rid-sama, no. I know I'm being selfish, but today, I want you to look only at ."

For so reason, she is puffing out her cheeks a little.

With such a cute gesture of Fara, I unintentionally overflowed with laughter and whispered to her

'Haha. I just waved at them. Besides, I told you at the social gathering, the only person I love is Fara."

"Ah, ah ......."

Farah blushes and turns over on the spot when she hears the answer.

Her response is really adorable. While I smile beside her as she turns over, the carriage begins to move slowly towards the main palace.

In such a carriage, Asuna, who quietly rode with for the escort, muttered in a whisper with a dumbfounded look on her face.

'We're riding together too, ...... but it seems the two of them aren't in our sights."

'Yes, totally.'

It was Capella who replied in a whisper, nodding in agreent with her.

But their voices did not reach our ears.

◇ ◇

After returning to the main palace from the shrine where the ceremony was held, I got off the carriage and held out my hand to Farah, who was about to get off.

"Fara, be careful where you step when you get off."

'Yes, thank you again and again.'

She took my hand, and when I got off the carriage, Capella, who had got off before , spoke to .

'Master Rid, I understand that after this you will both be having a change of colour before the reception. Accordingly, I expect the usher will be here shortly.'

'Yes, all right. Thank you, Capella."

As I answered him, the carriages that followed ca one after another from behind the carriage we had co in.

When moving from the shrine to the main palace, the first in line was the carriage carrying King Elias and the royal family.

Next was the carriage in which my father and his family were riding.

The carriage in which Fara and I rode was the third.

King Elias and my father's family, who arrived first, were nowhere to be seen at this place.

They had probably moved to the main palace.

As I was looking around to check, I noticed dark elf won dressed as maids coming towards from inside the main palace.

One of them I recognised: Daria, who had dressed in the hakama I was wearing.

The girls approach us and bow politely.

'Master Rid, Princess Fara, we have been waiting for you. We will now show you to your rooms for your dressing."

'Yes, I understand. Thank you very much.'

After answering, Fara and I are shown to our respective rooms.

When we parted, I called out to Farah.

"Well, Fara. See you later.

'Yes, Rid-sama.'

Fara nods at with a big smile on her face.

After seeing her off, Dalia led to the room where I was to change my colour for the wedding reception.

◇ ◇

Once in the room, Daria checked my kimono to make sure it wasn't too loose.

The ceremony was unexpectedly a lot of standing and sitting, so my colour change was mainly to make sure I wasn't out of place for the reception.

Eventually, when the checks and dressing changes were finished, Dalia smiled.

Rid-sama, I've finished dressing you. Do you feel any discomfort?'

She nodded and smiled as she moved her body to make a light check.

'...... yes, I am fine.'

'Yes, thank you. If you feel any discomfort, please let us know at any ti.'

Dalia said, smiled and bailed and left the room.

As she leaves the room, I slowly sit down on the sofa so that my hakama does not collapse.

'Phew, ...... I can take a little break, can't I?'

'Good night, Master Rid.'

It was Capella who answered.

He is my escort and accompanies to the dressing room.

'Ha, thank you. 'But are royal marriages in Renalute always like this?

'No, this ti the ceremony and reception are on a much larger scale, with influential mbers of the royal family from all over the Renalute. It's a big event, and it's a way of letting the country know how important the relationship is between Master Rid and Princess Fara is."

'Large and important, ......, that would make things a lot more flexible in the future, wouldn't it?'

I grin when I hear Capella's answer.

I was aware that this ceremony and reception was being done in a political sense.

But how big is the scale of this event?

That part of the story is only known to those who are involved with Renalute.

But it was so big that he, a forr official, called it 'massive'.

Before and after this ceremony, the eyes and impressions of the Renalute family mbers towards us, the Bardia family, will probably be very difference.

Chris also participated in the ceremony and reception as a mber of the Bardia family.

Therefore, if there is a strong connection between us r, it can be transmitted more strongly within Renalute.

In other words, the influence of the Christie Trading Company will spread within Renalute.

At that mont, Capella, who had seen the change in my expression, mutters in disgust.

Rid-sama, you are looking a little wicked. I think you shouldn't show that expression on your face.'

I huffed at his point and smiled.

'Hmm, I will. Thanks for the advice.'

Hearing his answer, Capella bows her head and bails.

He then looked up and continued.

'Master Rid, co to think of it, there was a duke from the Empire here, is there a close friendship with the Bardia family?

In response to his question, I crossed my arms, put on a thoughtful face, tilted my head and snorted.

'Well, I don't know. I don't actually know much about that myself. I haven't been to the imperial capital yet, and my father has told that he'll tell about the connections between nobles later.'

The Bardia family is located in a frontier area, so it is rare for nobles to visit us without a reason.

In fact, a good deal of ti has passed since I regained my mory, but I'm sure no Imperial nobles have ever visited the Bardia family.

And since my father goes to the Imperial Capital on a regular basis, there is probably no need for them to visit unless it's really sothing serious.

Even if there is a need to et with other nobles outside the Imperial Capital, the Bardia territory is located on the edge of the Imperial Capital.

It would take less ti to et them sowhere than to have them co to us.

Well, since we're that far away from the imperial capital, I think my father is also ditating on the various things I'm doing.

Shortly after I answered Capella, I heard Father's voice from outside the room.

'Rid, I suppose you've finished straightening your dressing. May I have a mont?'

'Yes. It's all right.'

After answering, Capella carefully opens the door to the room.

There, the father and the man from the Imperial nobility who sat on the Bardia family side at the divine ceremony were standing with a smile on their faces.

Unintentionally, I ask my father.

'Father, I beg your pardon, but that man is .......'

'I thought I'd take this opportunity to introduce you as well.'

The man from the Imperial Nobility steps in front of and then smiles.

'Nice to et you, I'm 'Burns Elasenise', head of the Duke of Elasenise family. I've heard a lot about you from Reiner. You've been pushed around by my non-conventional son, .......'

The man who introduced himself as Burns offers his hand without hesitation.

I was puzzled by the sudden encounter, but when I shook his hand, he murmured.

'That's ...... a first for .'

I look at my father as I hold his hand.

The father, with a slightly embarrassed expression on his face, turned his gaze away from .

Well, I'm aware that I'm swinging it around.

When I returned my gaze to Burns, I cleared my throat and continued speaking.

'How do you do, Duke Burns Elasenise-sama. I am Rid Bardia, the non-conventional son of Rainer Bardia. But being swept away by my own child with fear is a path every parent goes down, isn't it?'

Apparently not expecting to be talked back, Burns rolls his eyes and then starts laughing hysterically.

'Haha, yes, it certainly is. It's natural for any parent to be pushed around by their own child. ...... This is why Reiner gets pushed around so much.'

Burns chuckles happily and shifts his gaze to his father.

The father shook his head in amusent with a hand on his forehead at the series of exchanges.

'Burns, don't say too much."

'Haha, that's fine. Besides, my children are just like you.'

The exchange between Father and Barnes shows how well they get on.

But I don't think I've ever heard the na 'Burns Erasenise' before.

Where had I heard it before? I then had a shudder.

I then fearfully asked Burns: "Oh, um, I'm afraid I can't get hold of you.

'Oh, um, I'm going to ask you sothing I don't know, but does the Duke of Barnes have a daughter who is close to your age?"

Hm? Yes, there is. A girl called Valerie. She's the sa age as you, Lid. If you ever co to the capital, I'll introduce you to her.

"..!!, you have my word. Thank you."

I thanked him as I nodded my head, but inwardly I was extrely upset.

In my previous life, I rember a character from an Oto ga, Tokirera! and at the sa ti, the person I would most prefer not to get close to: .......

I never thought that I would et the father of the villainess Valeri Elasenise in such a place.

And I didn't know that your father and the villainess's father were so close ...... It's like a 'flag' that implies a future absolution.

When I looked up, Barnes smiled at .

'Oh, and you can call more casually ...... yes, you can call 'Burns'.

'Ha, yes. Master Burns, is that correct?

'Yes. Yes, I'll go with that.'

It is nice of him to be so easy-going, but I don't know what it is about this indescribable feeling I have.

The conversation with Burns started to make my back start to sweat.

At that ti, Daria's voice echoed from outside the room

'Master Rid, now that Princess Fara's dressing is complete, may I ask you to move to your room?

'Yes, of course.'

When I replied, father and Barnes looked at each other.

'Is it that ti already? Barnes, you will be in Renaloute until tomorrow, won't you?

'Yes, but I intend to leave for the imperial capital tomorrow at noon.'

Father nodded at his answer, then turned to look at .

'Rid, you'll be in Barnes' care from now on regarding the Imperial City. I'm sorry to rush you, but you'll need to leave so ti tomorrow morning.'

'...... Yes, I understand.'

'Okay, Rid. I'll talk to you tomorrow about the details."

After confirming that I had nodded, Father and Barnes left the room, chatting happily.

Once they were gone I lost my nerve and let out a huge sigh on the spot.

This is what it feels like to be hit in the face.'

Master Rid, is sothing wrong?"

"Oh, no, ...... it's nothing, I'm fine. Fara's waiting for , so I've got to get going."

I'll think about Burns tomorrow, for now.

For now, I should think about Barnes tomorrow and enjoy the wedding reception with Fara.

After answering Capella, I changed my mind and hurried to the room where she was waiting.
