Akuyaku Reijou ni Nanka Narimasen - Chapter 491
🕑 Added 2024-05-26 04:13:01 +0000 UTCThe truth of the case, or rather, the punchline.
I, thoroughly deflated by the suspicion of being a villain, had completely forgotten that Aldin-sama had met a scary young lady.
Aldin-sama dislikes both aggressive types and the rotten type, so he judged her to be the latter. I had completely forgotten that there was a suspect among the rotten type.
A sudden chill at the back of my neck... bloodlust? Tracing the source of the bloodlust with just my gaze... there she was, Sadako. No, to be precise, a girl with messy hair and bloodshot eyes was glaring at me.
"Eek!?"
No, this is genuinely scary! I instinctively used the Duke Carlisle's son as a shield.
"Eek!?"
Naturally, the Duke Carlisle's son was scared. Aldin-sama seemed to have noticed Sa○ko as well.
"Oh, it's that girl from before!"
From before?? The girl flinched and then bolted. She wasn't a ghost. She had legs.
"From before?"
"I told you about the scary young lady the other day, remember?"
So, she wasn't just of the rotten type but also had a horror aspect to her.
"Um... is she the daughter of Count Diner?"
"Probably..."
To be able to nonchalantly say, "She's harmless, so I left her alone," even though she's so noticeable, Ditz-kun, you're cool... or maybe you just didn't want to get involved.
And from then on, the daughter of Count Diner kept appearing. Now it's lunchtime, but I found her lurking in the shade of a tree and got super scared. I mean, seeing someone lurking in the shadows is super scary!
"Eek!?"
"... Even you have things you're afraid of, my lady."
Rabisha-chan looked at me with eyes full of compassion. I have many things I'm afraid of, too!
"I'll go talk to her. Kilia-chan!"
*Kilia = Daughter of Count Diner.
Rinka was a brave person. Your communication skills are seriously amazing!
"Um... I'm sorry. I... I didn't have the courage to talk to you... and he and the daughter of Duke Rosenberg looked so perfect together... so I ended up staring rudely..."
In conclusion, the daughter of Count Diner was just a girl in love.
"Oh, but when you spoke to me when Duke Carlisle's son and Aldin-sama were around..."
"Oh, that was... because the two of them are the embodiment of my ideal moe, and I really want them to be together, so I got excited and talked to you. I mean, isn't the love between the tyrannical Duke's son and the Crown Prince just wonderful? If it's between men, and if he were to end up with the Crown Prince instead of Duke Rosenberg’s daughter, I wouldn’t be jealous, so I thought I could cast a spell to make it happen, but somehow Aldin-sama always run away. So I've been looking for another opportunity to cast the spell. Lately, I haven't had a chance to put a spell on the Duke Carlisle's son either... whenever I have free time, I'm always looking for an opportunity from the shadows..."
It seems the daughter of Count Diner is a creepy fangirl stalker. Scary.
"First of all, I'm already married, so my official title is not ‘a daughter of Duke Rosenberg’ but the Marchioness Burton."
"Oh... so the Duke Carlisle's son..."
"I consider him a friend."
"Is that so!?"
Hey, why are you surprised, Duke Carlisle's son?
"... What did you think you were?"
"A... business partner?"
"I don't usually chat casually with business partners."
"I-I'm sorry."
Well, since he looks happy, I'll forgive him. Now, Count Diner's daughter, who made numerous unsettling statements... don't glare at me, you're scary.
"By the way, what kind of spell?"
"This! It's amazing! With this spell, the Duke Carlisle's son became my ideal tyrant in no time!!"
The book was titled "Complete Collection of Curses to Capture Him." When I checked inside... this isn't a spell, it's a curse!!
"Out!!! This is not a spell!! It's a curse!! Who published such a dangerous book!? It's a banned book!! Stop its publication immediately!!"
"Indeed, let's arrange that right away! Curtis, Adeil, Hugh!! Urgently!!"
Alphage-sama was also taken aback by the content. What is censorship even doing!? Thanks to Alphage-sama’s quick decision, all the books were safely collected.
By the way, the curse the daughter of Count Diner used didn't have much effect because her magic power was weak, but if someone stronger used, it was a curse that could control someone at will. That was close one!!
In the end, that book was written by the Marquis Lemuria's daughter.
Apparently, the son of the Marquis Lansdelt gave the book to the daughter of Count Diner as a gift, thinking it might cheer up his love-stricken cousin.
And so, the daughter of Count Diner used the spell... or rather, the curse.
Astonishingly, those were all the suspects involved. While the son of Marquis Lansdelt can be excused for thinking it was merely a book of spells, penalties were imposed on both the daughter of Marquis Lemuria and the daughter of Count Diner.
This punishment is known as the "I am Watching You" penalty.
The latest version of the horror golem, "I am Watching You"! Just being stared at can be mentally distressing, right? Honestly, I was harsher than I should have been! Even though I knew it wasn't me doing the watching!
The daughter of Marquis Lemuria was purely for surveillance purposes. The "I am Watching You" golem comes with a recording function.
For the daughter of Count Diner, it was to make her fully experience what it's like to be stalked, to prevent her from becoming a stalker herself.
Moreover, as a result of this incident, both families were demoted.
Later, the conscientious son of Marquis Lansdelt apologized to Duke Carlisle’s son. As expected of a diligent person.
However, after reviewing the recorded footage, the former Marquis Lemuria's daughter and the former Count Diner's daughter showed little remorse. So, this very Rosarin presented them with the terrifying nightmare of being controlled.
The next day, the two of them, covered in tears and snot, apologized and clung to the feet of Duke Carlisle’s son, who was visibly disturbed.
Hang in there, stay strong.
But afterward, he stormed into my place, yelling about what I had done. Don't blame everything on me.
"They said, ‘Rosarin-sama taught us how horrible our actions were.' Do you still insist you had nothing to do with it?"
"Ugh... well, they weren't really remorseful..."
"I appreciate the thought, but put yourself in my shoes, being clung to by two women with terrifying expressions from the morning."
Duke Carlisle’s son cried. Was it really that bad? Especially the former Count Diner's daughter—she is scary. Really that bad!
"I deeply apologize!!"
I immediately prostrated myself in apology. Seriously, I'm really sorry for that!
How did it come to this!?
