Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 434

・・・・・・It's true that those two men applied for a "private fight". But they are still children. In addition, they are knights in the service of our House of Bardia and are citizens of our territory. Taking this into consideration, there should be enough room for extenuating circumstances when considering the future of both families. Are you seriously saying that?

When I protested, he made a deliberate gesture of contemplation and responded, "Hmm.

"I can understand your feelings," Well, if you want to stop, you are free to do so. However, when you do so, it will mean that the Bardia family has interfered in the internal affairs of our Fox people. Please do not forget that."

"・・・・・・⁉"

Malbus smiled triumphantly.

At this time, I understand.

The purpose is to provoke me thoroughly.

The purpose of this is to gain a convenient cause for the Grandek family to antagonize the Bardia family.

Otherwise, they would not want to settle the dispute by "death," which would seriously deteriorate the relationship between the two sides.

This ・・・・・・⁉"

My hand became a fist in anger.

At that moment, a hand was placed on my shoulder.

I turned around to see my father shaking his head.

Lord Malbus, I would like to ask you for confirmation. How can it be that Elba-sama kills a knight in the service of this family, even if it is a private fight? What consequences would this have for both families? Do you understand all of this and accept it as the consensus of the Grandek family?"

・・・・・・ "Yes, I do. You may take it as such."

Just when there was discord between Malbus and Father, Lagarde's plaintive cry sounded once again.

'Lagarde!"!

Just as I was about to jump in to help him, Noir called out loudly, "Please wait," drawing the attention of the crowd.

'Master Riner, Master Rid. This is our private fight. So I have no regrets even if I die. Please, please leave us abandoned!"

Her desperate voice stopped her body from moving involuntarily.

But as soon as Elba heard Noir's words, he began to clear his throat.

'Kukku kukku. You have no regrets ・・・・・・ if you die? Then I'll let you hear it in the netherworld."

With that, he grabbed Lagarde's head in one hand, dragged him along, and brought him face to face with Noir.

"He was a fool, that man. If he had worked for me, I would not have taken his life. He refused my orders to live for the people and led a rebellion ・・・・・・ and failed. The result is that his wife, who is pregnant, and all those involved in the rebellion, including his entire family, and even those who work in his mansion, have all been killed. "

'Noir. Don't listen to him,・・・・・・, there is no proof that he is telling the truth."

Lagarde looked up frantically with her head still caught in her hands and glared sideways at Elba.

'Ho, that's hurtful, ain't it? But, duh. ・・・・・・."

Elba's mouth relaxed into a grin.

"The only person who has committed this inept rebellion and taken the whole clan along with him is them. Nevertheless, they rebelled. In other words, those of you who survived were abandoned."

"Don't be ridiculous ・・・・・・ those people. ・・・・・・"

Lagarde was about to say something.

At that moment, Elba slammed him to the ground.

"Ugh⁉"

Am I in the middle of a conversation?"

'Lagarde⁉"

Noir shouts his name, but Elba grabs her chin and forces her to make eye contact with him.

To begin with, you're here. If you're here, your mother is already dead, isn't she?"

"・・・・・・"

She stared at Elba with tears in her eyes, frustrated.

"But it is easy to imagine how she died. How they sold their bodies for a pittance of money and food and died ugly, emaciated, and empty, I wonder? Poor children, if they have foolish parents, the hardship will naturally fall on them. Children cannot choose their parents, you know.

"Don't you dare mock my ・・・・・・ mother!"

Noir shouted back frantically.

Her voice was so shaky.

'My mother said, my father stood up to save a lot of suffering people. My father, who could risk his life for others, was my mother's pride. My father's thoughts must not be extinguished. Saying that, he desperately protected me. Do not insult my ・・・・・・ my family!"

"Hmph. That's what I call being an idiot. People, pride, family? That's the kind of stupid thinking that got them killed so miserably."

Elba sniffles and spits out, and tosses Lagarde carelessly toward Noir.

"Au⁉"

Elba looks down as if bored as the two of them fall on top of each other.

'I guess that's the end of those 'thoughts' your mother told you about, huh?'

He then raises his right hand high in the air and creates a jet-black flickering flame.

'You should be honored ・・・・・・ to be burned to death by this 'black flame' as much as Greasus!

If he continues like this, they will be killed by him.

A moment later, I realized that my body was moving on its own.

"That's enough, Elba!"

Nu・・・・・・⁉"

Elba sensed the presence and immediately counteracted the "fire spear" I had fired with the "black flame" I had created with my right hand.

At the same time, there was a violent explosion and a cloud of smoke in the area.

Not long after that, Elba appeared out of the thick smoke, his mouth relaxed as if he was enjoying himself.

'I wonder what he's imitating. Rid Bardia."

"I won't let you kill them. If you want to go any further, I'll deal with you."

Malbus leaps forward with his arms outstretched as he chimes in with a "Ho ・・・・・・." "That's very violent," he says.

"You are being very rough with us. As I said before, this is interfering in the internal affairs of the Fox people. Is that all right with you?"

"・・・・・・, that's a strange thing to say. The two knights, Noir and Lagarde, are knights in the service of the House of Bardia and are citizens of the territory. To impose the convenience of your country on our family, which belongs to the empire, without any consideration for their current situation, is an interference in our internal affairs. This is not the land of the beastmen. Have you forgotten such a fundamental fact?"

You ・・・・・・⁉

Malbus' eyes are peeled back, as if he didn't expect to be talked back.

"The two families are here. Considering the feelings of those two people and your position, if you had kept quiet and tried to keep things simple,・・・・・・ you would have been left to your own devices. It is so childish diplomacy that I cannot even say what I am disgusted by."

'This, this, let me say it: ・・・・・・."

Trembling with rage, he approached his father with a great sword.
