Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 331

Fara and Lid had a bowl battle and had a chat with various children at the Second Knights' accommodation.

Then, after Rid and Farah left.

Unlike usual, there was a somber atmosphere in the Second Knights' quarters.

The reason for this is that many of the girls, mainly from the Beastmen tribe, are sighing, looking down, or in shock, and are, in any case, breathing in and out of the blue.

Also, active girls such as Ovelia (rabbit), Mia (cat), and Sheryl (werewolf) went to the training ground and were engaged in some kind of mindless mock battle.

In the midst of this situation, Lagarde of the Fox tribe, who was in the lobby of the accommodation, tilted her head at Noir and asked, "Hey, Noir.

Hey, Noir. Why is the atmosphere in the accommodation so different from usual?

'...... Lagarde, it's a little slow".

'Why is that?"

Lagarde, who looked at her words with a pout, let out a sigh of "huh ......".

Then a nearby horseman boy with long jet-black hair and eyes answered Lagarde's question.

'You only look at Noir, you don't notice him."

"What is it, Gedding, the second squad leader? It's very unusual for you to talk to me. But what did you mean when you said that?'

Gedding shook his head in disgust at Lagarde's reply.

"I meant exactly what I said, you and Noir are good friends."

Noir smiled at the look he gave her.

'Hmmm... Gedding-san like that only has eyes for his own kind, Maris-san, don't you?'

"I don't think we're talking about ...... Maris."

Gedding's face was cliched as he seemed to have been unexpectedly answered.

Lagarde was nonplussed by the two of them.

Perhaps hearing their conversation, the boys from the rabbit tribe came over.

They were talking about something interesting," Lagarde said.

'We'd like to join you, too."

"What, you're Rumple and Dirick of the Special Forces? Don't tell on us."

Lagarde looks a little uncomfortable when she sees the two rabbit people.

However, this is not so much because of Rumple and Dirick, but because the special forces to which they belong is an intelligence-gathering unit.

The two probably know this as well. They did not look particularly displeased, but continued their conversation in a playful manner.

Of course. The information we collect does not include people's love lives. You know, Dillick?

"Well, I don't know. Unless I'm ordered to, I don't want to get involved in people's love affairs."

"People's love lives...... love lives......? Oh, the girls are all depressed because Master Rid got married, by any chance?"

After listening to the two rabbit people, Lagarde finally realizes and huffs.

Noir gave him a dumbfounded look.

'Huh, you finally realized. Rid-sama is very attractive from a beastman girl's perspective, and above all, he is the one who saved us. I think you all secretly harbored romantic feelings for him even though you thought it was impossible from your position."

"Oh, I see. ...... So, then, is that still the case with Noir, too ......?"

Lagarde looked into her eyes with a serious expression as she said this.

Noir flinched at the straight eyes that were directed at her and blushed.

Well, let's see. I am also grateful to Rid-sama, but ...... that I have Lagarde,......."

'...... Oh, I'm sorry⁉ I asked something strange. But, I see."

The two fox people around them looked dumbfounded.

Soon after, Rumple of the Rabbit Tribe began to talk as if he suddenly remembered something.

'By the way, speaking of children who are good friends like you two, there were also Toluva and Belkaran of the Cattle Tribe, right?'

'Ah, those two are good friends too."

It was Dillick who answered in agreement with Rumple's words.

The two then looked around the lobby.

Then he looked at Toluva and Belcaran, two cow people, who were talking happily together, from a distance.

They, too, seemed to have noticed Rumple and the others looking at them and got up and came over to our group.

The two were looking at each other from a distance, and then at Toluva and Belcalan.

'It looks like fun. Can we join in on the conversation?"

Toluva is a little small for a cow person, but on the other hand, Belkaran is a big girl.

Gedding, a horseman, answered them.

No, I was just talking about the atmosphere in the accommodation being a little gloomy.

Oh, I see. I have Trouba, but the others were all in love with Rid, weren't they?

When Belkaran spoke happily with a bright and cheerful expression on his face, everyone present pulled a little face.

Then, Trouba muttered with a disgusted look on his face.

I always told you to stop calling me Bel ...... 'chan'."

"Oh dear, that's right. Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry."

The two cow people are showing an exchange, and everyone is chuckling in unison.

After a while, Belkaran looked around the lobby once again and muttered while hugging Trouba from behind.

"Rid-sama does a lot of things without realizing it, so it's interesting, isn't it?"

"What do you mean? Belle."

Belkaran, who was asked the question, grinned and began to talk happily.

"Rid taught everyone about his first love without realizing it, but he married someone else and introduced her to everyone. He married someone else and introduced her to everyone. Depending on how you look at it, he is a terrible 'first love thief' ....... Well, I have Trouba, so it doesn't matter to me."

At the mention of the term "first love thief," the beastmen boys present here looked around the lobby with indescribable expressions on their faces.

And then the blue sighs coming from all over the place, shook their heads and said, "Oh dear."

Then Trouba complained again to Belcaran.

"Belle, I'm going to say it again and again, don't call me "chan.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry."

While apologizing for his words, Belkaran smiled happily.

The two of them were looking at Lagarde, but at that moment, Lagarde noticed that Tonaj and Thor, both of the Fox and Ape people, were looking at her, and she called out to them.

They responded to Lagarde's voice and came over to him.

Lagarde, did you call for me? Or rather, what's the matter with all the division commanders gathered like this?

"It's true. The second order's elite have gathered together and are playing some kind of trick."

While Tonerji tilts his head and speaks, Thor asks Lagarde in a frightened manner.

And Tonerji and Thor are also second-in-command of the development workshop.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Don't be so angry."

Thor said this in a playful manner and went behind Lagarde's back and put his hands on both shoulders and started rubbing them.

He then went behind Lagarde's back, put his hands on her shoulders and started rubbing them.

Everyone in the room burst into laughter at the exchange between the two.

In the midst of this, Gedding, a horseman, spoke to Tonerji.

"By the way, it's rare to see two people from the development studio here. Aren't you going to the workshop today?"

"Yes, I do. I've been notified by Ellen and Alex that the development department is closed today. But I was feeling a little restless, so I was talking with Thor about the future of development."

Thor nodded with a smile at Tonerji's happy words.

"When we have a deadline to meet, we're always stuck in the workshop,. We can't talk slowly unless it's at a time like this. Lagarde, Noir, you are also fox people, so you must have skills. If you get tired of your current escort duties, you can always come to the development department."

"Haha, I'll look forward to working with you then."

Lagarde nodded and replied to his words, but Noir looked a little complicated.

Noir's face became a little complicated.

"I was wondering why Lagarde and Noir volunteered for the ground troops instead of the development factory. Well, was it the 'phosphorescent light' they showed at the Battle of the Hachi-maki? That was great."

I guess that's true, if you ask me. Is there any deeper reason?

Belkaran also nodded his head in agreement, which drew the attention of everyone present to Lagarde and Noir.

Soon, Lagarde looks flustered.

"Well, you don't have to worry about that. Besides, Rid-sama has already agreed that we belong to the ground troops."

As soon as he said that, a booming voice echoed through the lobby.

It seems that those who had been training outdoors have returned.

Kahlua⁉ You, Kumako-kun, you went easy on me again earlier, didn't you? I told you to go out with me for real!

"I told you to go out with me for real! If you and I were to have a serious clash, one of us might get hurt. Of course it's impossible."

The one being prodded by Ovelia of the Rabbit tribe is Kahlua of the Bear tribe.

He is shaking his head in disgust.

Mia of the cat tribe, who was standing by the pair, overflows with laughter.

"Ha-ha, Ovelia. He's still upset about losing to Kahlua."

"Stop it, Mia. Don't provoke Ovelia now, Mia, or you will be in trouble."

The one who admonished her so that Ovelia would not hear her voice was Cheryl of the werewolf tribe.

The girl of the cat tribe who was nearby nodded her head in agreement with her.

'That's right, Mia. Ovelia-san is unruly when she gets out of line."

"What is it, Scala? You're taking Lord Wang's side?"

Mia said and looked at Cheryl as if she was provoking her.

Sheryl, who was offended by the gesture, shouted angrily, "Who is this Lord Wang?

Who are you, Lord Wang? You little draco!

'Hahaha, you're not going to do it, are you? Hey, you!"

The lobby was instantly filled with noise as the group that had been outside practicing on their own returned.

Lagarde muttered in dismay while watching the group.

Ovelia and the others are still the same.

"Oh, is that what it looks like to you, Lagarde? They're not quite there yet. Hey, Noir."

"Oh, uh, yes. Yes, that's right."

The boys of the beastman tribe other than Rumple, Dirik, and Gedding who were present at the exchange between Belkaran and Noir all tilted their heads in unison.

At that time, Capella, a dark elf, appeared in the lobby with Alice and Dio of the Horseman tribe and Salvia of the Ratman tribe.

At the same time, the clamor that had been echoing in the lobby instantly subsided, and a sense of tension began to emerge.

The captains of each division of the ground troops, along with their deputy captains, are to assemble in the main meeting room first thing tomorrow morning. Then, even though it's the vacations, don't make too much of a fuss ...... if you don't mind."

"Yes, I understand."

The beastmen children in the lobby responded immediately to Capella's words and bowed.

Alice, Dio, Salvia. I'll take care of the information transmission. ."

"...... Yes."

For some reason, Alice, Dio, and Salvia nodded in disapproval at Capella's words.

Then, Capella went straight to his office in the accommodation and left the lobby.

When he was out of sight, the children of the beastmen tribe were released from their tension, and sighs filled the air from all over the place.

"I'm so scared. He always shows up so suddenly, it's heartbreaking,"

"I agree with that."

As Mia nodded to Ovelia's words, a bright voice echoed through the lobby.

Everyone in the room looked at the place where the voice was heard.

But there they found the Aria Sisters with big smiles on their faces.

"Everyone,what's going on? What is ...... that, something happened?'

'......, you're getting a lot of publicity."

"This is like a bad time, isn't it?"

The children of the beastmen tribe who saw the girls were relieved and patted their chests.

Aria and the sisters were puzzled by this.

At that time, Capella returned to his office and approached a dark elf who was sitting at a desk in the back of the room, looking over some documents.

'Capella-san, I have done as you asked."

'I see. Thank you for your hard work on that. . Dan."

As soon as the conversation was over, Capella entered the office and changed his appearance in a flash.

Then, "Dan," a raccoon tribe member who excelled in the art of haunting, appeared in his place.

He unmasked himself and spoke to Capella with a grim look on his face.

'Even so, I can't bear the fear of what will happen to me if I'm discovered, even if it's for infiltration or training in the art of transformation."

Capella looked at him from the papers in her hand.

Capella looked from the papers in his hand to him, put them down on his desk, and answered.

The tension is a good training ground. I had Alice, Dio, and Salvia as my escorts just in case, and I know you guys like thrills.

"I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it."

'That's the spirit. I'll be counting on you."

"Yes, ......, of course."

Dan said this with a weary look on his face and left the office.

After seeing him off with a smile, Capella began to look over the documents again.

He was a very good man. If so, I'll have to teach him a little more manners.

Capella said as he looked over the documents in an indifferent manner.

After this day, it is said that for a while it was secretly popular among the beastmen girls to call Rid "the thief of first love".

However, he had no way of knowing that.

◇

"!!"

Master Rid, are you all right?"

Reacting to my sneeze, Fara peered at me worriedly.

I nodded with a smile, sniffing my nose.

Yes, I'm fine. It's just sudden. Maybe someone is gossiping about me.

"Is that so? I hope that's the case."

Fara's cheeks relaxing after a strange look is very cute.

I looked at her and honestly said what I thought.

"Haha, thanks for worrying about me. By the way, Fara is really cute when you smile, you know."

"Yes. ...... Um, yes. Thank you."

She said this with a blush on her face and turned over, flapping her ears up and down in happiness and embarrassment.

Yes, she is cute after all.

I was thinking this when Diana, who was standing behind me, blurted out something like this: "Lid-sama is really unselfconscious.

"Rid-sama is really an unknowing and sinful person. ...... It might be a good idea to let Rubens drink the innards of Rid-sama's fingernails."

What's wrong with my nails, Diana? I don't think they're growing. ......"

I stared at my nails as I said this.

Yes, they are not long.

She shook her head.

No, it's nothing.

'Really? Then that's fine. ......"

After the conversation with Deanna was over, I looked back at Farah and for some reason she was puffing out her cheeks in a cute way.

"What's the matter?"

'Muu...... sure, Rid-sama's unawareness is lovely, but it could be dangerous in the imperial capital, so please be careful.'

I don't know what's going on, but she seems to be a little angry.

I was puzzled, but answered with a hammer.

"Uh-huh? I thought Farrah was cute, so I was just being honest about that feeling."

"He......⁉ Ugh, it's not hopeless, but ...... it's still dangerous."

"What ......?"

I tilted my head in puzzlement, not understanding the intent of Farah's words.

Soon after, Asuna, who was waiting behind , muttered in a whisper, " Thanks for your hospitality every time."

What does that mean ......?
