Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 426

A letter of invitation from the Fox people's tribe was recently delivered to my father.

It stated that Elba Grandek, the eldest son of the tribal chief, Malbus Grandek, his second son, visited the Bardia territory.

The letter stated that they would like to hold a meeting.

Whatever the aims of the Foxmen tribe are, this would be a good opportunity to clarify them.

The father decided so and sent back a letter of consent for the visit and meeting with the Foxmen.

This matter was immediately shared with everyone who served the Bardia family and caused a great commotion.

In particular, the members of the First and Second Knights, who had also been affected by the attack, were outraged and had to be restrained. It was hard to restrain their indignation.

It was hard for me to restrain my indignation, though I was glad that they were angry.

No matter how suspicious and close to black it is, there is no proof that the fox people are the culprits.

Since we are from different countries, this will be a political struggle.

That is why my father and I think that the meeting is an effective opportunity to find out what the foxmen want.

In addition, Bardia has recently strengthened patrols in the territory, in addition to guarding the fortresses and borders bordering the territory of the foxmen.

Therefore, the members of the First Order are doing their duties with a greater sense of urgency than before.

In the Second Order, under the guidance of Curtis, intense training has begun to develop organizational skills and individual strengths.

However, as a former military man, Curtis's training is more rigorous than I had imagined, and the beastmen children are desperately trying to keep up.

Everyone's competitive spirit was considerable, and Curtis was highly praised by them, and he even gave them a drumbeat that they were very much looking forward to their future.

One day, as preparations for the visit and meeting with the Foxmen continue to progress, a problem arises.

One day, a problem arose, and I was in a deep trouble.

"Why can't I go to the Imperial Capital⁉ I was looking forward to going with Princess Sister and everyone else,・・・・・・ I hate my brother and father!"

"I'm sorry, Mel."

In my room at the bookstore, I am being slapped hard on my chest with both hands by an angry Mel who is in tears.

Then, Fara, who was standing by my side, gently admonished me, saying, "Mel-chan."

"I'm sorry for your disappointment this time, but I'm sure you'll have another chance to visit the Imperial Capital. So please don't get so puffed up. Right?"

As if to match her words, Cookie and Biscuit in kitten form were snuggling and clearing their throats at Mel's feet.

'Ugh ・・・・・・ but I'm the only one who's never been to the imperial capital, you know? That's why I was so looking forward to going with you guys!"

Mel cried out and we were at a loss.

In fact, if it hadn't been for the attack and the visit and meeting with the fox people, we would have made plans to go to the Imperial City together, just as Mel had said.

Mother is still recovering, though, so it's still too difficult for her to make the long trip.

It all started when Fara and I were talking about the events in the capital, and Mel said strongly, "I want to go to the capital, too! "

When I discussed this with my father and mother, they agreed that it would be a good learning experience for Mel to see the Imperial Capital.

And so we all made plans to go to the capital.

But then the attack happened. In addition, the Fox people would be visiting soon, and the trip to the capital had to be delayed.

In the end, our words did not stop Mel from crying, and we had to move her to her mother's room.

Mel was still in tears. That's too bad.

Because ・・・・・・ you promised that we would all go together."

Mel was sobbing in her mother's arms on the bed.

"I'm sorry, Mel. I promise that this time we will all go to the Imperial City together after this case is over."

"Yes, let's go with me and Asuna and look around the Imperial Capital together."When I saw Mel nodding her head while crying "yes ・・・・・・" to my and Farrah's words, Mother smiled at her.

"Yes, that's true. And since I'm feeling better, maybe next time I can go with you."

"Oh, really?"

When Mel stopped crying, Mother continued.

"Of course, it's true. Thanks to everyone's help, I'm slowly starting to learn how to get up from bed and walk. So, next time, let's go to the capital with the whole family."

"Yes! Mother, that's a promise."

"Yes, I promise."

As Mother and Mel exchanged promises with their pinky fingers, Cookie and Biscuit, who had been cuddling with Mel, licked the tears from Mel's cheeks.

Just as everyone was relieved to see this, there was a knock at the door of the room.

Shortly after I answered, I opened the door, a little surprised to hear the voice of an unexpected person saying, "・・・・・・ it's me.

"Father, what is it?"

I heard that Mel was crying.

Father scratches his cheek and looks a bit embarrassed.

Mother saw this and burst out laughing, "Oh my goodness."

"We were all supposed to be going to the capital to talk about it right now."

"・・・・・・ Is that so, Rid?"

'Yes. Also, I'm sure Mother will be able to go with us the next time we go."

"I see. I see. So that's how it is."

After the father, who was leaning close to Mel, whose eyes were reddening in his mother's arms, he cleared his throat.

"I promise you, too. When the current problems are settled, we will all go to the capital together."

"Really⁉ Father, that's a promise!"

".Yes, of course."

After saying this, he exchanged pinky fingers with Mel.

"Good for you, Mel. But, honey. You have to keep your word, you know."

"I understand."

He nodded at his mother's words, which sounded like a nail in the coffin, and then he turned his attention back to us.

"Rid, I have a few words for you, too. May you come into the office?"

"I'll be right there. I'll be leaving with my father first, then."

"Yes, brother. See you later."

Mel and everyone else in the room saw me off, and I left the room with my father and went straight to my office.

As soon as I entered the room, Father picked up the envelope on his desk and presented it to me.

'The schedule for the meeting with the Foxmen ・・・・・・ Elba and the others has been set."

". It's finally here, father."

Whatever the aims of the foxmen, failure is not an option at the meeting.

There is no doubt that this will be a critical point in order to protect Bardia.

With this in mind, I began to look through the contents of the letter that my father had given me.
