Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 430

As the ruler of a territory, I can understand your excitent. However, this is a eting that will lead to the future of both our countries. Your words carry with them responsibility, and you should be more careful in what you say and do."

Father's brow wrinkled and he was horrified, but Elba kept a cool face.

Heh, I see. Well, I am sorry about that. But I believe it was ntioned in the letter I sent you. It was you who first raised the suspicion that there was a criminal among us foxn ・・・・・・. I guess we're on the sa side now."

"Well, ・・・・・・."

When Father gave a suggestive nod, Elba shrugged his shoulders and made fun of him.

Well, whatever it is - I've made my point . The children in the custody of the Bardia family must all be turned over to the Grandek family imdiately."

"I have already explained to you through the docunts that our family is not at fault, with all due respect to ・・・・・・. There is no way we can accept such an offer."

I replied, suppressing my emotions, and Malbus, holding the docunts I had given him, relaxed his mouth.

That's exactly what's so strange. You said you used this docunt to 'protect' our missing people."

Yes, that's right. What about it?"

I nodded and asked him back, and he made a scowl.

If so, the missing children will be sent back to the country where their parents or relatives are located. That is the humane course of action, as you said, Rid-sama. If that is not possible, then why should it be said that the children are being treated as 'slaves' ・・・・・・?"

"Have you forgotten, Lord Malbus, what my father told you to be careful ・・・・・・ about what you say and do?"

"No, no, nothing like that. I am simply stating a fact."

"I see. Then I will tell you the sa thing."

In order not to be taken in by the malicious provocations of Elba and Malbus, I calmly and with clear anger continue my words.

We have heard directly from the children of the beastn tribe whom we protected. How they were sold into slavery from their holands ・・・・・・ and everything about it."

Elba nodded pleasantly as the anger made the words tougher.

"That's interesting. I'd love to hear about it."

'・・・・・・ Most of them say they were sent out to slavery from the poorest villages of their respective tribes for 'money,' 'slack-jawedness,' or for being 'useless. I also heard that there were other directions from the powerful tribes who followed the tribal chiefs. Under such circumstances, they were abandoned by their country as slaves, and it is hard to believe that they have a ho to return to in your country. That is why they beca Bardia's people of their own will. Therefore, there is no reason for us to hand them over to you.

After saying this, Elba turned to Father.

"Rid says this, but is this your opinion on the matter as well, Reiner?"

"Yes, that's right. I have heard their words firsthand. My son's words are true."

"Hm. ・・・・・・."

Elba hamred and turned his head to look thoughtfully at sothing.

After a short pause, he shakes his shoulders, "Hmmm ・・・・・・," he looks up and begins to laugh out loud.

No way, you an to tell that you really took the word of a bunch of children who had fallen into slavery and were not yet old enough? Haha, this is amusing. In the first place, what children say can be changed at any ti by adults' instructions. It's ・・・・・・ painful to see that you expect us to believe it. I'd like to see so more serious argunts."

I'm about to run out of patience with his unmanageable behavior. Father and Chris are also silent, but they are frowning at .

I stifled my anger and glared at him in horror.

"This is a eting. What you just said and did was too rude. Besides, I am no older than those slaves. So you are saying that there is no truth in my words either?"

It may sound like he's trying to fry my words, but that's what he's saying.

But Elba shook his head with a wry smile.

I apologize if I have offended you. But you are the eldest son of the Bardia family. Besides, ・・・・・・"

After a short pause, his mouth relaxed into a grin.

If what the children said is true, it has nothing to do with our eting. The return of the missing beastn children to their original country ・・・・・・ would be an important part of the relationship between the two families. It is none of our concern whether or not the children will have a place to stay after returning to their ho countries."

Unexpectedly, everyone present blinked their eyes.

But only the father leaned forward calmly and looked straight at Elba.

, "You want a peaceful resolution, and if we just sit back and listen to you, you're talking a great deal. If that is the case, let make it clear as well. The children of the beastn we have protected are the citizens of our Bardia territory. Therefore, we cannot accept your offer,・・・・・・ and further talks would be pointless. Shall we ask you to leave this place imdiately?"

"I see. Well, then, let us do that."

"Oh, go back to your country and tell your tribal chief, Lord Galen. The Bardia family will not turn over their people to you. And that we will never forgive your words or actions."

Father showed his resolute attitude, and Elba nodded his head, unperturbed.

I understand. I'll take your word for it. But let give you one piece of advice. There are so extremists in the country of Zubera who want to save the slaves of their fellow countryn. In the future, the territory of Bardia may be targeted by such people. At the very least, you should be careful. Hmmm..."

After saying this, he slowly stood up.

Let's go ho, Malbus. The eting is ・・・・・・ over."

"Thank you, brother."

Thus ended the eting.

Although I had expected so degree of hostility from the letter, the words and actions were more hostile and provocative than I had imagined.

In fact, it was as if they wanted to be hostile.

In the end, what was the purpose of this eting between Elba and Malbus?

Afterwards, as a matter of courtesy, I left the entrance and proceeded down the road leading to the carriages to see them off.

Not long after that, I saw a girl and a boy in the uniform of the Second Order of the Fox People in my field of vision.

The two looked familiar, and I hurried over to them.
