I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 914



30. Can Supporting Characters Also Recreate Events?

Of course, I wouldn’t come to Uncle Zerora’s place to cause trouble for no reason. Putting aside unexpected situations, I wanted to see Uncle Zerora because I needed to start my investigation to change the current Great Ying Empire from him.

The reason is simple: if in the “original era” there was never a genius named Kefir in the Great Ying Empire, then… Uncle Zerora, Kefir’s father, would be the most directly affected person.

After Kefir’s existence disappeared, who would replace Kefir’s position as Uncle’s daughter? Without Kefir, what would Uncle’s situation become? And then extending to the Great Ying Empire, what is the current state of the Great Ying Empire!? Starting the investigation from Uncle Zerora is the quickest way!

I just didn’t expect: I hadn’t even seen Uncle Zerora’s face yet, and I already felt the huge difference in the “original Great Ying Empire” compared to my memory. If Uncle hadn’t appeared in time, and if he hadn’t at least retained the “calmness of a strong person” in my memory, Ludwig and I might have really fought here!

After that, Ludwig and I, two “strangers” to Uncle, were finally peacefully invited into Uncle’s house. The manor, no different from my impression, now lacked an important place—Kefir’s small house. However, I had no time and no chance to ask, because now, in my opinion, Uncle should also treat me as a “stranger.”

At this moment.

“Being able to handle the servants in my manor alone, you must not be some random troublemaker.”

After sitting down, Uncle Zerora’s gaze followed, “Speak, what is it that you are so eager to see me for?”

As the words fell, the script appeared.

[Zerora knew Euclid’s thoughts.]

I wasn’t worried, after all, he is Kefir’s father, it’s not surprising that he could think this far. Rather, the fact that he could remain as calm as I remembered him made me feel relieved and gave me a bit more confidence in the plan ahead.

Because, investigating the current Great Ying Empire, if I were to seek out Professor Moriarty or the Queen herself, that would be courting death. And Uncle Zerora, being someone I am familiar with, is obviously more suitable to be the source of information.

“The step of approaching and speaking with Uncle is complete, next… is to find a way to inquire about the ‘changes’ in the Great Ying Empire without arousing Uncle’s suspicion about my identity.”

And this, considering Uncle’s identity, is not impossible.

“Using the topic of ‘daughter’ to attract attention was indeed intentional, I am very sorry, Mr. Zerora.”

Clearing my throat, after apologizing, I also brought out the wording I used when I was still the “great villain Euclid” and was fleeing everywhere.

“My name is Li De, I come from the countryside of the Great Ying Empire, and this is my maid.”

In my impression, like every man, Uncle has the bad habit of being lecherous. His gaze only glanced at Ludwig standing behind me before returning to me.

This probably also proves: don’t be fooled by Uncle’s gentle attitude now, these are actually illusions caused by overlapping memories. In reality… Uncle is completely on guard and testing me.

“The countryside? Which countryside…”

“Glamorgan Castle.”

I casually mentioned a rural area in the Great Ying Empire. My understanding of the Great Ying Empire prevented me from slipping up in such matters.

“Then, this time I left home to seek refuge with you.”

Then, I revealed the way I used to approach Uncle. The Great Ying Empire has vast lands and many nobles, but this also led to the distinction of “high and low” among nobles. Simply put, the Great Ying Empire not only has people above people but also people above people above people. This troublesome nesting doll situation can even have several layers.

And slightly more ordinary nobles, in order to have a “big backer” or seek a more suitable path, often go to some more powerful great nobles to seek refuge. Simply put, they “become vassals.”

The reason I used to approach Uncle this time was this. And this situation is also a “feature” of the Great Ying Empire among the countries on the continent. Knowing this unique “custom” can also further dispel Uncle’s doubts about me to some extent, allowing me to understand the Great Ying Empire more quickly.

Sure enough, after this explanation, the uncle’s suspicious attitude towards me seemed to have diminished a bit.

He didn’t know how to deal with my behavior, so he could only give a wry smile: “If you want to seek refuge, you should write a letter of recommendation. Who comes directly to cause trouble like you?”

“To attract the attention of a strong person who is about to be canonized in the Great Ying Empire, if you don’t stand out, who knows how long it will take.”

The uncle is at least the “strongest” in the Great Ying Empire on the surface. Who doesn’t like to hear flattery? I also hoped to use this method to get closer to the uncle, but…

A strange thing happened again. I didn’t expect the uncle to show off arrogantly after hearing this, but… after the words fell, the uncle’s reaction was not only “ordinary”, but even a bit displeased!?

Why!? I had confirmed before that the uncle is undoubtedly the strongest in the Great Ying Empire now!

No, look closely, the uncle’s displeasure now seems more like… impatience?

Because the next moment, the uncle didn’t even respond to my subtle flattery, but directly skipped the topic!

“I have seen some of your skills. Normally, if you were a magician, I would ask my wife, but… sorry, young man, I don’t want to accept any vassals now.”

“Why?”

Becoming a vassal is like having an extra unpaid worker, to put it bluntly, an extra lackey. I know the uncle is not the kind of person who flaunts with a bunch of lackeys on the street, but he didn’t even bother to introduce me to Kefir’s mother and directly refused, obviously for some other reason!

I didn’t look at the script because the uncle seemed willing to answer my question.

It’s just…

The changes brought by the “original era” to everything and everyone once again left me a bit confused.

“I was going to ask why you want to seek refuge with some great noble. Isn’t it better to go to the current number one figure in the Great Ying Empire’s noble circle, the genius of the Great Ying Empire—Louis XXIII?”

Louis… XXIII? Wait, this XXIII should represent 213, right! One of the minor characters in the script of the Great Ying Empire!

Why did her name come up at this time!?

The Great Ying Empire… what is the situation now!?
