Chapter 408
Chapter 408
"What's wrong, Diana?"
I ask, and all the eyes in the room turn to her.
"I am sorry to say. That outrageous Renalute incident. If the two of them were involved, such an apology is far from satisfactory."
Stein and Raymond's eyes widened.
" Are you asking us to get down on our knees right here and now?"
"My brother is right," We have apologized. And now you want us to be even more humiliated."
Curtis was taken aback by their remarks, saying, "Haa...... fools."
Indeed, what they just said is like saying that they are not at fault at all.
Even if it's what they think in their hearts, they shouldn't say it out loud.
Besides, the way she said it would make them even more angry.
Then, Diana shook her head.
"An apology that is only superficial would be an insult to Master Rid. I am saying that you have not done enough to reflect on your own actions."
'Guu ......"
The two men frowned at her sharp point of view.
Diana, well said.
I was impressed, and she turned to me and Curtis.
"Master Rid, Curtis. Will you give me the opportunity to correct them here and now?"
As she said this, Diana turned her right hand into a fist and smiled wryly.
The expression on her face sent shivers down my spine.
But Curtis narrowed his eyes and nodded.
'I understand. I will accept your offer."
"Grandfather⁉"
"Are you out of your mind?"
"Yes. You have no idea what you've done wrong, so you might as well take this opportunity to taste it for yourselves."
Curtis replied admonishingly and turned his gaze to me.
"I hope you will accept my apology as final, Lord Rid."
I understand.
"Oh, thank you. Well, Stein and Raymond, then. To begin with, you need to be prepared to be a member of the Lanmark family. As soon as you helped Norris with his little tricks, you were in danger of being condemned. And now, as a result of Othros' desperate pleas, you are here. If you cannot admit the thoughtless mistake you made, there is no future for you."
When admonished again, Stein let out a resigned sigh, "Hah .......
I ...... understand. Then, let's take that maid's 'correction' or whatever it is. Lord Rid, are you sure you're going to let this one go, then?
"Yes . I'm fine with that."
I nodded with my eyes narrowed, and Stein grinned.
I guessed that he thought that Diana was just a maid.
I guessed that, but I didn't dare say anything.
"Thank you very much, Lord Rid. Then, Diana-dono. Please do as you please."
Stein said, stepping in front of her and folding his hands behind his back.
Then Raymond cowered his shoulders and stood beside her in the same position.
"Good resolve. By the way, do you recognize me from ......?"
What? A maid like you is ......", Stein huffed as he was about to say.
You are the "violent maid" who broke the wooden sword with bare hands during the imperial match⁉?
That would be a gibberish.
I couldn't help but shove it in my mind.
And as for Diana, her eyes were still narrowed and a blue streak was running through them.
"They are really rude people, you know. I'm going to literally beat their guts back into their skulls with every word they say."
Wait a minute. Don't be too hasty⁉"
Stein seemed to regret his decision and panicked.
Well, no matter how many cracks were in the wooden sword, if the fist of Deanna to grab both ends and break the pressure is aimed at you with all your might, it may be natural to fight.
But she glared mercilessly at him.
"You were ready for it, right? Why is it wrong to hit you? Do you think that if you cry and scream, I will forgive you? Now, grit your teeth!"
"You ......⁉"
At that moment, a dull sound of tremendous pain echoed through the room, and Stein was blown up against the wall.
Apparently, it was not a fist slap, rather a hand smack.
While everyone was stunned by the sheer force of the blow, her gaze fell on Raymond, who remained behind.
Then Raymond flinched in the face of the fight.
"Na, na ....... Even in training with my father and brother, I never was hitting that hard."
"You are a weakling! That's what I call being a spoiled brat."
Diana then slapped Raymond mercilessly on the cheek as well.
At that moment, a dull, violent sound echoed through the room again.
Then, as usual, he was blown away with great force and slammed into Stein's body, which was lying by the wall.
"Guha⁉"
Both of them grunted together, but they seemed to have lost consciousness and were turning their eyes.
Diana clears her throat, looks around at everyone in the room, and bows.
"...... thank you for your cooperation."
