Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 411

No,Othros told me that if I would cooperate with Master Rid, the connection between the Lamark and Bardia families should be strengthened. His Majesty agreed."

"...... strengthen the bond?"

When I frowned at him, he nodded his head.

In other words, he wants Asuna to be Master Rid's wife in the future.

Fara rolled her eyes.

And then Asuna let out a deep sigh and shook her head.

I'm inwardly annoyed that Father hasn't learned his lesson,......, even though I told him so clearly in Lenalute.

Of course, it is not against Asuna or Curtis.

It was against Othros and King Elias, who took advantage of the situation.

Then, Curtis bursts out laughing again.

'Master Rid. As I told you earlier, this matter has been politely declined, so don't worry about it."

"Thank you for your consideration."

I bowed to him and patted the head of Fara, who was shunting something next to me.

"It's okay I'm not interested in anyone other than Fara."

"He⁉ Oh, I appreciate your kindness."

Curtis's eyes drop to the corners of his head as she blushes in surprise.

The two of you appear to be on good terms with each other.

"Well, you see, ......"

Curtis was the first to speak.

"Princess, Your Majesty is a government official. Therefore, it is only natural that he should try to strengthen the relationship with Bardia as much as possible. The princess is fulfilling her role admirably. There is no need for you to be so worried about it."

Is that so?" She tilted her head and he nodded.

"Yes, that's right. I don't like that kind of exchange. I'm here to help you. Well, if it still bothers you, perhaps you should send a note to His Majesty telling him how much you care for Fara ...... Master Rid."

Curtis looks at me with a hint of a smile.

"'He ......?"

The next time I was stunned, everyone's eyes were on me.

The next, Asuna deliberately coughed and nodded.

"I think that's a good idea. If you write a letter in Master Rid's handwriting, I am sure that His Majesty will be reassured. I am sure that such talk will cease in the future."

......⁉" I was aware of my face heating up suddenly.

I know what they are trying to say.

But that would mean that the letter would have to contain so much love affair.

Even though we live in different countries, writing such a letter to my father-in-law would be an agony of shame, or perhaps psychological trauma.

Suddenly, I looked sideways at Fara and saw that she was looking at me with some kind of expectant gaze.

Oh, this is the one where the outer moat is filled ...... and I conceived, and when I looked forward, I noticed that Curtis was smiling with some kind of satisfaction and I huffed.

'I see,....... So this was what Father had wanted all along."

"Huh, what are you talking about?"

Curtis cut the white with a smile.

Instead of cooperating with him, he made an offer to Asuna, but his main goal was to get me to write a "letter" that would convince King Elias.

What kind of a scheme would he have me put in writing after all this time, even though I've told him so many times? When I frowned at him, he blew it out.

"No, what? His Majesty seems to be behind in many ways in his discussions with the Bardia family. A little mischievous, perhaps."

'Even if it's mu......, it's still a little unpolite. But I understand. I will write to Father to ensure that this does not happen in the future.

"I appreciate your consideration."

Curtis bowed his head in gratitude.

After he assured me of his cooperation, I moved on to introduce him to the members of the Second Order.

By the way, when I write my "letter" to King Elias later, I will faint with shame, but that's another story.

"Please check out ....... This is a very splendid establishment. Perhaps the knights of all nations would envy it if they saw it."

"Yes, indeed, yo I am surprised that the facilities are equipped not only with an open-air training area but also an indoor training area."

"That's not all, my brother. On the first floor there are separate hot springs for men and women, as well as a dining hall and a linen room. On the second and third floors, there are even libraries for individual study."

When I showed Curtis, Stein, and Raymond the accommodations where the Second Order was spending the night, the three of them looked around with wide-eyed amazement.

When I think about it, they may have been the first to show guests around.

The second floor is for the boys, and the third floor is for the girls.

Each floor is designed for studying and reading.

The books that boys and girls read may differ slightly.

The library on the second and third floors is open to the children who stay in the dormitory until after lights out, so they can come and go as they please without any inconvenience.

Eventually, Curtis twisted his head, "Hmm .......

"But even though it is a knight order under Master Rid's direct control, was it necessary to provide facilities to this extent?"

"Yes, of course. Spending time here is a source of honor for the Second Order and fosters self-esteem and a sense of responsibility. Moreover, as the saying goes, "When you have enough food and clothing, you know how to be civil ......," so we made no compromises in the construction of this facility."

Stein and Raymond twisted their heads, but Curtis nodded in agreement.

I see. I see. I see. So, the ...... is not only a place for training for knight order but also a place for building a good mental attitude."

"Yes, that's right." He nodded his head and narrowed his eyes.

The accommodation is not only for the military and civilian life, but also for the development of the mindset of a knight.

A regular lifestyle is one of them.

In addition, the daily study, training, and various activities as the Second Order are not necessarily easy.

Life here may seem good at first glance, but it is only natural that the demands and responsibilities on everyone are greater because of it.

In the first place, the office of "knight" itself is what we call "elite" in the previous life.

The Second Order's quarters are the first of many educational institutions that will eventually spread magic, literature, and martial arts in Bardia.

But that is why they pursue the top level at the beginning.

Then, they will refine the content a little and give it to the lords.

If this were to happen, Bardia would be able to achieve remarkable development in a few years' time.

When I showed him around the accommodation while briefly explaining this point, Curtis rubbed his chin and groaned.

"'Ummm. I heard that Master Rid is an 'unconventional prodigy,' ...... but I didn't realize he was this far advanced. No, I would say that your thinking is more advanced than most."

"Thank you. I would prefer to be called a progressive rather than an unconventional prodigy."

When I replied, he cowered and shook his head.

Hm. His Majesty and Zack. I can understand why my son, Ortlos, is behind the curve.

"Haha. I'll take that as a compliment."

At the same time, a certain scene came into view and the conversation turned to ...... by the way.

"The two of you, Stein and Raymond, seem to be talking to Diana a lot. Is it because of what happened earlier?"

"Hm? I didn't get that impression."

Curtis looked at the two people who were talking to Diana in various ways, and soon after, he loosened his mouth with a grin.
