Chapter 197: Resurrection

Wait.”

I said that and swept one hand in the air.

The words and gestures were not addressed to Mimon, but to the maids waiting in the room.

The girls, who had been waiting in the corner of the room, sensed that they had missed the right moment to make a small comment, and straightened their posture by pulling their chins back.

What? Oh,……”

Seeing that brief exchange, Mimon seemed to understand her own mistake.

What Mimon just said was too straightforward a demand.

It is never a praiseworthy act for a commoner to ask something of a nobleman, even if it is a mistress who has entered his villa his.

Of course, that is not synonymous with “Don't ask for anything.

In fact, I have offered favors to Mimon's own children and helped them find jobs. It depends on the content and frequency of the request, but if the request is expressed in an implicit manner or euphemistically, there is no problem in responding to the request from the nobles' side.

However, this is not something that can be said in a uniform manner.

At first, when Mimon asked for a favor, the maids did not show any signs of paying attention. This was because they were in the middle of chatting, and the atmosphere was such that the request went unnoticed.

But what happened after that was not good.

Taking Eve to the royal capital was a type of request that could not be completed by Mimon alone.Eve was nominally my property of hers, so I would be meddling in my master's belongings.

And above all, my going to the royal capital is an act as a nobleman, and a highly political one at that.

Perhaps it was the keyword “King's Landing” That made the maids cross the line.

'……, That wasn't the right thing to say just now.'

Ha, yes ……! Oh, um, …….”

The servants are always on the lookout to make sure that commoner women do not taunt the lord. They are more wary of the parochial nature of noble boys than anything else.

Mimon had stepped on a land mine.

The maid who was in charge of her education she will probably receive long hours of instruction later.The same goes for Mimon.

I took her hands as she hurriedly tried to explain herself.

Calm down. I'm not angry. It's only been a few days since we entered the villa, so you just have to be careful from now on. You must have been so happy to see me after a long time that you got a little carried away, didn't you?

I'm not sure what to do. ………….Yes. I'm not sure what to say. I wanted to talk to you about a lot of things, and I got a little impatient …….”

I offered a helping hand, and Mimon immediately understood our intentions and got on board.

The most important thing to remember is that the best way to get the most out of your home is to make sure that your home is clean and well maintained.

It was better to admit my mistake early and make a compromise.It would be useless to tell them not to preach to her with force here, and it might rather strengthen the theory of Wilk's partiality of hers.

Mimon shushed me, and said an apology that was close to the ideal we wanted.

I posed to accept it and made an appeal to the maids, who were staring at me with sharp gazes.

The punch line was that Mimon liked me so much that she inadvertently said it in a fit of excitement. And since I had already given her a hard time, the sermon wouldn't take that long.

However, I felt like there was still something stuck in my throat if I ended the conversation here.

I decided to ask for the rest of the story, pretending that it was nothing.

So, what do you mean you want me to take Eve to King's Landing? I don't think Eve has very good memories of the Levios family, let alone of the capital …….

I don't think there is anything, let alone much.

Mimon glanced sideways at the maids to see if they had a problem answering my question, but then she opened her mouth as if she had made up her mind.

She wants to find her her…… Mother.”

Well, the answer was somewhat predictable.

According to Mimon, Eve apparently thinks that Rave is still in the slave store in King's Landing.

The actuality is that the actual slavers are not only the ones who are in charge of the slavers, but they are also the ones who are in charge of the slavers.

In reality, Rave is living a carefree life in Nambonan City, but Eve's brain is still in the depths of hell in the slave store in Levios, the royal capital.

He is in a really hard time…….I also wanted to do something to help her……”

The sad look in her eyes that she sometimes shows during conversation and the forced smile she tries to hide is unbearable for Mimon, she says.

Eve's mother.

I'm sorry Mimon, but I had no intention of letting Eve and Rave meet at the moment.

But I thought it would not be a bad idea to take her to the capital.

The reason is that I had done a lot of preparation for my departure to King's Landing, but I had done little to prepare for the woman I was going to embrace.

As expected, I couldn't go to the maids of other territories to plant my seed. I might be able to settle it with money if it was just the lords, but my father and I have decided to go the pure wilk route. Can't just eat and eat.

However, even if I take someone with me, it is difficult to choose the right person.

First of all, I cannot take Kohliy with me. In fact, I don't want to take him.

The royal capital is a fiefdom, and you never know what will happen. If I want to take them with me, I need them to be at least a human …… Who can fight and not be a burden, in other words, a follower.

It's important to take care of my sexual desires, but I don't want it to be to the detriment of the Quardenze family. I want a safe and secure sex life.

Odi and others fulfill these requirements admirably, but they cannot travel to King's Landing because they are currently pregnant.

In this respect, Eve may be just the right person for the job.

If judged solely by the amount of magical power she has, Eve is at a level where she could tie with an adult knight. Although she would not be able to beat him due to the difference in combat experience, she would be able to fight tenaciously if she had a large amount of magical power.

Simple detection magic would only be able to determine the amount of magic power her, and as long as she is in her carriage or mansion, she is indistinguishable from a military officer.

The more I thought about it, the more I thought that Eve going to King's Landing was not a bad option.

Since I bought Eve, my life as an aristocrat has changed drastically. Ever since my first battle against the city of Nambonan, I have been in a state of flux.

This time, including transportation, I will be seeing Eve for quite some time.

I thought it might be a good idea to talk to her slowly, and maybe I could help her look for Rave and trick her into getting to know me better.

Come to think of it, I wonder if Eve knows about this story of Mimon's. I ask the question that comes to mind.

No, Eve doesn't know that I'm going to tell her this story. She said she would ask me herself sometime. Just …….”

Mimon then clammed up and ended the conversation by vaguely slurring her words, as if she was reluctant to say anything.

In short, Eve is so scared of me that if I leave it like this, she will never be able to talk about it, so I decided to do her a favor her.

Well, if Eve herself wants to go directly to me, I can consider taking her with me.

But there was one thing that bothered me.

'I'm wondering what you were going to do with the search……. You didn't mean to storm the store and go on the run, did you?”

The only way to save Eve Brain Rave, who would be in the slave store, would be to buy him legitimately or raid the store and release him.

And Eve is penniless.

She can live without money because all her food, clothing, and shelter are provided by me.There is no money to buy Rave.

I wonder which probability is higher, the probability of performing erotic services to the master and begging him to “Buy me handsome” Or the probability of robbing him.

In Eve's case, she has so much magic power that if she wanted to, she would be able to rob the master with ease, which is strangely realistic and scary.

It was as if she was thinking of a way to make money. Eve can use magic, so she can make……”

The money I make from that is theoretically all my money.Since Eve is my property her, I can spend the rest as much as I want, except for the purchase cost and daily living expenses.

Mimon may not know this, but even if I am lucky enough to find Eve's mother, the price will be something that Eve's pocketbook can't buy.

Mimon said, “Yes, I know. I know, because selling people is expensive.

He doesn't seem to know.

'I mean much more expensive than a mere man.

So I told him about the price of Eve.

Mimon's eyes widened in astonishment when I told her exactly how many Kiris gold coins it cost.

For a commoner woman, that amount of money is not a very realistic number of coins.

'So…… Much……!

'I would think that since we are from the same ethnic group, we would fetch about the same price.'

In fact, Rave was also expensive.

Even though Dolan did me a lot of favors, it was really expensive. I don't regret buying it, which is good.

“…….. Ah……..”

So Mimon closed her eyes with a somber look on her face and spilled out her painful thoughts about Eve, who was not here.

She doesn't say, well, buy her one then. Now that she knew the exact amount, she understood how selfish it would be to say anything.

And I don't think it's going to be easy to find out,” She said. Levios' army is accustomed to turning the minorities they capture into money. It's normal to think that they have already been sold somewhere.

The Quardenze family, for example.

Such……”

Mimon was shocked, but such is the way of the world.

The Levios family regularly makes expeditions to the Land of Mist, so they are accustomed to reselling people they have kidnapped.

It is said that the slave market in the royal city of Levios is so mature as an industry that even barbaric tribesmen who do not even understand the Eluo language can be turned into merchandise. Even the elves, who are difficult for commoners to deal with, have no trouble finding wholesale customers.

I'll stop threatening mimon at……

I will need to consult with the servants later, but I don't see a problem with taking Eve to King's Landing.

If I were to take Eve with me, she would basically be shut up in the Quardenze family mansion that has been prepared for her in King's Landing.It would be a problem if some nobleman's son fell in love with Eve at first sight by taking her out her.

It would be better to invite some slavers to the mansion and pretend that they are seriously looking for her.

Let's think about the story of taking Eve to the royal capital. Just let them know that it is unlikely that they will find her.

I'm sure she'll be happy to hear that. Even so, I am sure that Eve will be pleased. If you can go look for your mother,……”

Mimon broke off, stared at me for a moment, and then continued.

If you can find your mother,………,I ​​am sure she will be very happy.I believe that she will show us her true her……Smile, which has no shadows anywhere.

I'll keep that in mind.”

Once I left Mimon's room, I moved to my room in the villa.

Mimon seemed to have developed a much deeper affection for Eve, perhaps because of her close relationship with her.

'At ……, There is no indication that Eve is doing anything in particular?

'Yes. Perhaps it is a magical diffusion of goodwill as a natural gesture, like a light smile. Considering the case of the …… Nambonan lady, it is thought that only the subject can sense it.”

With the Eve-magical-woman theory in my mind, I decided to talk to the servants in the villa just to be sure.

The fact that they are talking in a muddled manner without mentioning Rave's name shows that the information is properly shared among the servants.

If it is a high-powered magic that has a strong effect on the psyche, we can tell by the movement of the magic power. Whenever the ladies meet each other, they are accompanied by two or more magic bearers, so they must have noticed it right away. The fact that no one has sensed it so far leads me to believe that it was just a favor with faint magic power.”

As soon as he finished his words, the middle-aged maid who was uniting the maids in the villa made a difficult face.

She said, “If it was only a favor, it would be fine, but it would be disturbing to have …… Malicious feelings directed toward the two pregnant women. If it's something that we can't guess at, I think it would have little impact, malicious or not, but …… Just to be sure.”

I'll leave it to you. I'll leave it to you. Don't say it too strongly.

I was about to ask her if malicious feelings have a big impact on her, when the middle-aged maid answered as if she was trying to anticipate the question.

'Don't worry, sir. It depends on the degree, but the fetus is rarely affected by malice from the outside.

If anything, she said, the biggest concern is that the mother's body will be started by the magic of malice and the child will drift away.

The middle-aged maid said that since neither Minit nor Mimon have had any miscarriages so far, there should be no problem. , It must be all right.

If that's the case, good.

Then I told them to call Minit, the other pregnant woman.

I had originally planned to go see her, but as soon as I let slip that I was going to see Minit, the maid who had been waiting for me immediately went to call her.

I am a nobleman in a sense, although I do as I please, especially in New Nellie City.

Excuse me.

After waiting for a cup of tea, a knock sounded and the door was opened.

Standing there was Minute, wearing an apron-like garment. She was posed with her hands claspped together on her lower abdomen, which accentuated the bulge of her stomach and made it clearly visible.

Perhaps because she was wearing maternity clothes made of white-colored fabric, and perhaps because I thought of Daifuku Salted Rice Cakes earlier, I began to see her figure as her Daifuku Salted Rice Cakes.It looks simple and delicious.

Young Master.”

Her words are somewhat trembling as she turns her face down a little.

The first time I saw her, I thought she was in a state of emotional instability. I'm not talking about the marriage blues, but the impregnation blues.

Wait. I'm going to use a calming spell right now.

With one hand pointing at Minute, who was about to enter the room, I stood up abruptly, snapped my fingers, and sent particles of light shining here and there around the room.

I have lightly explained to the maids that it is superstition to be jealous of babies, so don't worry about it, but they are not convinced. They probably think, “You're lying because you want to make out with the girl you impregnated, right?

But even so, the maids did not go against my request and silently watched this lighting magic.

As expected, they would try to stop me if I started to do something strange, so I'll be careful not to touch that line.

Is this light……?”

Minute seemed to be taken aback by the sudden invocation of magic, and she looked at the bogus magic with a small shake of her face from side to side.

The magic is to suppress the jealousy of the baby.I wanted to talk to Minute for the first time in a long time.Why don't you come in and sit down?

“Uh, yes.”

I sit down on the sofa and pat her right next to me.

Minute sat down there, guided by my words her.

I wanted to talk to her slowly.

It is true that I feel most at ease when I am with her. When I turned my head to kiss her again, she said, “I'm happy to see you again.

I am happy to see you, but I heard that you are busy, young lady. I am very happy that you have time for me,…… And I am very happy that you have time for me,…… But I have heard that you can't take too many days this time in New Nellie. … That,…… Ah, young master,…… Handsome.”

I closed my own lips on hers as she continued to speak teasingly.

The actual “I'm not a fan of the way you do it,” He said, “But I'm not a fan of the way you do it either.”

I was so excited to see her lips her, and I was so excited to see her lips her.

'Chyu. …… Hmm, Minute, I've missed you for so long.”

Haa……♡”

Her mouth was wet with saliva and her somewhat unfocused, mature eyes her remained in love, but there was something lewd and unprecedentedly attractive about her.

The atmosphere is a perfect balance of a maiden in love and the essence of a married woman. It was unintentionally hot to the crotch.

However, the middle-aged maid would have stopped me dead in my tracks if I told her that I was in a stable period and that she should let me have sex with her.

I tried to stay calm and held her close with my hands around her waist her.

Minute is so serious. Did you even listen to my schedule?

'Because I don't want to bother you, young master.

The most important thing to remember is that you should not be afraid to ask for help.

The most important thing to remember is that you can't be too shy about telling people how you feel about them.

The pleasure of seeing Minute's embarrassment at hearing my sweet words outweighs the embarrassment of telling her how I feel about her. Perhaps men never grow up with the mentality of elementary school boys who enjoy poking fun at girls they like.

Besides, I have some business I can do here today.

'Errands?

I'm not sure. Isn't it about time you arrived?”

I looked at the middle-aged maid, and she answered simply.

I have her waiting in the other room.

Apparently, I had been so absorbed in our lovemaking that I had left her completely unattended.

I instructed the maid and smiled at Minute.

I had some final touches left to do on the outfit we're going to wear in King's Landing. I'm thinking of doing it at the villa since we're going to be there.

I see,” Minute said with a small reaction.

She was visibly depressed and dejected, as if she thought the time had already come to say goodbye. Of course, it was not goodbye yet.

It's no fun for me to put on and take off my clothes by myself. Why don't you look at my new clothes with me?”

The change in Minute's expression at this point was like watching a flower blooming on double-speed video.

That's why I invited someone from the clothing business to the villa today.

I had received word during my stay at the castle that the social outfits and outfits I had commissioned them to make last year were on the verge of completion.

The clothes were made to order and of the highest quality, so they would not be completed until they had been tried on and made minor adjustments.

How do you feel about the fit? Are there any tight spots?

The owner of the clothing store stands right next to me and asks me how I'm doing.

The two women who had probably actually made the garment were silently checking the length of the garment.

They were checking the length of the garment.

I lightly rotated my arms and tried lifting up my arms on the spot, but there was no problem, and if anything, it was easier to move than the clothes I was wearing earlier.

The actual “I'm not sure how much I'm going to be able to do with it, but I'm sure I'm going to be able to do it.

I'm glad to hear that. This will be my outfit for outdoor travel, so I made it as easy to move around in as possible.

This was one of the outfits he would wear during his journey from the Quordenze territory to the royal capital.

And there are about five outfits prepared for this purpose alone. I understand that as the eldest son of the Quordenze family, he is expected to dress up without embarrassment, but being forced to be a dress-up doll for the duration of the trip was tedious at heart.

I invited Minit to try on the clothes, partly because I thought that girls would like clothing stores, but mostly because I didn't want to go through this event by myself.

Turning his gaze to the mirror stone prepared for his appearance, the shopkeeper gave instructions to a young man who seemed to be in charge of the heavy lifting and turned toward us.

He turned to me and said, “That's pretty good.

The reflection of my figure on the mirror stone is exactly that of a nobleman's son.

The jacket, designed to look as if only the top half of a trench coat had been cut off, is beautifully finished with gold thread embroidery. The belt, with brass studs driven into it at equal intervals, had a slight weight to it, but not enough to bother me that much. The undergarment was finished in a plain color, and one could tell from the skin that it was made of high quality silk.

Although what he wears on a regular basis is always solid, this costume seemed to have more of the craftsman's spirit than usual.

Perhaps it is not just my imagination, but I think the price is about 30% higher than usual.The quality must have been required to be above the limit so that the Quardenze family would not be taken for a fool by the nobles of other families .

I don't feel as if I'm wearing a costume, but it's a natural look for an Eluo continental nobleman.

Posing in front of the mirror like this, I feel that I really am a “Nobleman.

I have brought you a cloak.

The shopkeeper responded to the voice coming from the other side of the blinds and quickly took the cloak, spreading it out in front of me.

I have made it a thin one for the warmer months.

It is a gray cloak with no particular color. Except for the embroidered picture of a fang-bearing snake, there is no pattern or design on it.

Some leather material is used from the shoulders to the neck, and the collar is tight.

Once the cloak is put on, the person is finally fully clothed.

Take down the cloak,” He says. I want Minit to see my new outfit.

Now I, the shopkeeper, the artisan woman, and the dresser are surrounded on all sides by impulse screens like those used in medical examinations.

The owner lifts the frame with both hands and opens one of the four sides.

Minute, who was sitting on the sofa waiting for me, and I struck the pose I had just shown her in front of the mirror.

How's it going?”

But Minute was silent before my words.

She clasped her hands together like a maiden in prayer and let out a long sigh that seemed to come from the pit of her stomach.

'Very …… Very, very good for you …… Nice …… Handsome.'

Minit tried her best to squeeze out words of praise, trying to fulfill her assigned role for her.

But whether she has a few words of praise or her brain is not working properly, all she can say is “Nice,” “Looks good on you,” And “Cool.

Still, perhaps because I could be sure that the words came from her true heart, I felt no discomfort at all. Be told how much you look good, no matter how many expressions of praise you may have used.

Being told frankly that I look cool is satisfying in its own way.

Okay, then, let's try the next outfit. Minute, it may be tiring for you with your heavy body, but please stay with me just a little longer.

Yes, sir! Leave it to me! I'll be with you all the way……Young lady,……♡”

The Minute moved her hands from her chest to her mouth and gazed at me with sparkling eyes.

It is not a figurative expression.The light particles of the fake magic that I am invoking are reflected in her moist eyes.

I feel like I'm going to prolong the fashion show senselessly in order to meet her expectations of her.

My original plan was to go to the pioneer association in the evening to give instructions and deal with the errands that had been piling up since I left for New Year's. Some other things.

He said, “…… Then, let's have a closer look at it. We have plenty of time.

I enjoy today what I can only do today.

I sat down on the sofa, put my hands on his shoulders, and when I said that, I blanked out today's schedule in my brain.

This may be the first time I have been defeated not by sexual desire but by the desire for pure love.

From the next day on, I was forced to flit about the castle and its surroundings, but I didn't regret it too much.

I was more than busy, my mind was soothed, and Minute was feeling better.

Thus, my New Nelly life passed in the blink of an eye.
