I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 912
28. He’s anxious, he’s anxious, he’s anxious (Please vote for me at the beginning of the month~)
Near the royal palace in the Great Ying Empire, there are several noble areas reserved only for those few who have close ties with the royal family of the Great Ying Empire, the true royal relatives. Without exception, those who live here are all high-ranking royal nobles in the “Louise” lineage.
Due to the strict, even severe, behavioral constraints imposed by Queen Louise IV of the Great Ying Empire on the noble children of the empire, the royal relatives living in the noble area may not be as “luxurious and noble” as ordinary people imagine. However, anyone who can live here safely is, without exception, a true “superior person.”
One of the most well-known families in the noble area is the Zerora family, close relatives of Queen Louise IV and wielders of considerable power within the Great Ying Empire. Zerora, who has already half-stepped into the “ninth rank of sainthood,” is a name known to everyone inside and outside the Great Ying Empire. Generally speaking, anyone with a normal mind would not come to Lord Zerora’s residence to cause trouble, but…
Today, the servants of the Zerora family encountered two abnormal-minded individuals.
“Hey, you two, what are you sneaking around here for?”
The servants who can work in Lord Zerora’s house are, without exception, not ordinary people. The butler, who is well-known in the Great Ying Empire’s ranking of strong individuals, immediately noticed the two figures wandering outside the gate.
A plain-looking ordinary man, accompanied by a tall, capable maid. Being able to wander around the noble area of the Great Ying Empire with a maid, they are unlikely to be ignorant thieves. However… their frequent glances, especially from the man, who thought he was hiding his gaze well, made the butler suspicious.
Then, at the moment they wandered over again, the butler directly opened the door and went out to stop the suspicious master and servant.
“This is Lord Zerora’s private area. Do you have any business here? If you’re just wandering around, please go elsewhere.”
“……”
The unfamiliar attitude and the words, though polite, clearly conveyed a sense of “rejection.” This was the situation I and Ludwig encountered the next day when we saw the servants of Uncle Zerora’s house.
As for the “sneaking around” part, of course, it was impossible. I brought Ludwig, who had finally seriously disguised herself as my maid, to the noble area of the Great Ying Empire, not to “sneak around,” but to find an opportunity to talk to someone in Uncle Zerora’s manor.
[Euclid’s sneaky actions were discovered by Zerora’s butler!]
As the script indicated, the opportunity finally came!
I immediately brought Ludwig over, just like the situation I encountered in the Rodma Empire before. Even though the middle-aged butler of Uncle Zerora in front of me “knew” me in the past, in this “restored” era, he still treated me as a stranger. Moreover, if my identity as “Euclid” was discovered, a death script would likely appear in the next moment.
“We’re not wandering around, we have business.”
After confirming that the butler in front of me truly did not recognize me, I no longer hesitated and showed him a “confident” smile. “We came specifically to see Lord Zerora and want to meet him.”
Before finding a way to change the current “Great Ying Empire,” considering the “danger level” of Queen Louise IV becoming an enemy, it is obviously necessary to investigate first to avoid falling into her trap from the beginning. After all, in this “restored” world, the “current” queen’s trap for me would definitely not be a sweet one, but a genuine death ending.
And the starting point of the investigation, I chose the place in front of me—the manor of Kefir’s father, Uncle Zerora.
“The master is not here right now.”
Just as I thought: after not recognizing me, no one would want two suspicious-looking strangers to approach their master. Since my identity needs to remain absolutely low-key, forcing my way in is definitely not an option. Fortunately… I have other ways to start my investigation.
“Since Lord Zerora is not here, let us meet someone else in the manor~”
The most important thing for a big villain is three words—shamelessness. I didn’t back down at all because of the butler’s cold refusal. On the contrary, the next moment, I asked an even more troublesome question.
“For example… the ‘young lady’ of Lord Zerora’s family should also be able to fulfill the purpose of our visit.”
Before I finished speaking, the expression on the butler’s face gradually changed.
To be more precise: as soon as I said the words “young lady,” his previously somewhat polite attitude disappeared completely. Along with the content of the script, it gradually became dangerous.
[The butler is annoyed by Euclid’s remarks.]
“Sir, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Literally, the people around Lord Zerora, we also want to meet, for example… his daughter or something.”
I knew I was courting death, but I had no choice now.
As for the content of these words… I’m sorry, uncle. When everything is over, I will apologize to you properly.
The script changes accordingly!
[The butler harbors hostility towards Euclid!]
This time, his response didn’t even include basic polite titles.
“The master has no daughter. Coming here and saying this on purpose… are you looking for trouble?”
With considerable strength and this hostile gaze, although I am no longer scared to the point of running away just by being looked at, I did feel quite a bit of pressure.
And the next moment, something even stranger happened!
I just confirmed: in this “restored” world, Kefir never existed from the beginning, and Uncle Zerora did not have any other daughter named “Kerfi,” but…
This was just an ordinary inquiry, yet the butler’s reaction was indeed a bit too much!
From noble mtl dot com
“Could it be that someone from ‘over there’ came specifically to pick a fight!?”
“Uh… pick a fight?”
I admit I had a bit of that intention, but what’s with ‘over there’!?
The next moment, the death script popped up, and I didn’t even have a chance to confirm it!
[Euclid, who was suspected due to his exposed identity, was hunted down!]
As shown, the butler in front of me approached with hostility, accompanied by the appearance of the death script. My recent behavior, at most, could be considered impolite by common sense, simply put: ky, but the next moment, the people from Uncle Zerora’s house directly showed a death script in their attitude towards me…
The people in this restored era are a bit too irritable, aren’t they!?
