I Was Banished From the Hero Party I Raised - I Was Banished From the Hero Party I Raised chapter 71

14. The youngest daughter of a famous swordsman (5)

“I am not Lorenzo’s child. And, my purpose is to kill everyone in the Fiorene family, including Lorenzo.”

Lucia poured out the information at once.

“I thought you were someone who wouldn’t be able to tell a lie.”

It’s good to be quick to judge anything, but it can’t be helped that it takes a load in the position of accepting it.

“Oh, what… . I like your honesty, but… .”

Let’s summarize the information we have obtained so far.

There is a high probability that she will be the only survivor of the Fiorene family in the second playthrough.

At the same time, he wants to kill the entire family including Lorenzo.

Thus, she is the sole survivor and the real culprit for killing all members of the Fiorene family.

Probability anyway.

Here again the question arises.

Although she is strong, she is not strong enough to deal with Lorenzo, an SS-class hero.

If you fight for just a few minutes, you’ll pass out bleeding. How was that possible?

this is the first one

Next is why she wants to kill them.

If you’re not Lorenzo’s child, why are you here with the surname of Fiorene… .

“But it would be impossible.”

Lucia’s words cut her thoughts.

“So, I just want to get out of here.”

“You want to go out?”

Lucia looked out the window blankly.

“You are giving up your last name. After winning the dueling competition, I wanted to ask that I give up my last name.”

The winner of the dueling competition is given the surname of Fiorene.

She wants the opposite possibility.

Since he already had the castle of Fiorene, he seemed to believe that it would be possible to give up the castle as a prize for winning the tournament.

I don’t think so… .

“… That, too, would be impossible.”

“If you know Lorenzo’s personality.”

“Yes… . The reason why I insisted on a swordsmanship that didn’t fit my hand was because I thought it would be different if I won with it… .”

Lucia was aloof.

“Still, I needed something like that.”

Even though you know that’s impossible, you said you needed it as a means for self-justification.

It’s so calm that it feels like it’s someone else’s business.

But it must have taken a long time for him to become calm like that.

“What do you mean you’re not Lorenzo’s daughter?”

“Ugh. Previously.”

Lucia pointed to her face and said.

“Is it okay if I answer as I go?”

“I see.”

Lucia woke up and stepped out of bed and stumbled.

Reflexively, he stretched out his arm and grabbed it.

“ah… . Thank you.”

It’s the first time in my life that I’ve ever seen such a sickly superman… .

Sitting in front of the mirror, Lucia carefully removed the bandages.

As a courtesy, I turned around, and Lucia smiled lightly.

“You are kind.”

“That’s the most I’ve ever heard in my life.”

At that joke, Lucia said ahaha and laughed innocently.

After laughing, I cleared my throat a few times to see if my throat hurt.

Following the sound of the bandages falling, Lucia spoke.

“Do you know about Fiorene’s family hierarchical culture?”

“Maybe not as much as the insiders, but among the outsiders, they probably know quite well.”

“I see. Then you might be more curious. Why am I, a superhuman, doing this?”

“You know me well.”

“I mean… . He is an illegitimate child.”

When I said it wasn’t Lorenzo’s child, I expected it.

The daughter of a man other than Lorenzo and one of his wives.

But that expectation was also broken.

“And, my mother is not from Fiorene either.”

“… ?”

“Did you know that there is a hierarchy among Lorenzo’s wives?”

Among Fiorene’s children, the first in the hierarchy is, of course, the first superman and the eldest son.

Andrea di Fiorene.

Beneath it are a handful of superhumans who received their last name from the outside.

And at the bottom, ordinary children who were born by Lorenzo but are not superhuman fight over the rank of the bottom.

Naturally, the ranks of the other women, except for Andrea’s birth mother, also fall under this floor.

Since he has had quite a few wives to sow his seeds, competition will be fierce among them.

An adventurer with no roots won the rank of aristocrat with one skill, but Lorenzo’s skills are unmistakable.

There are not many nobles on the continent who are treated as well as Fiorene.

Therefore, in order to enjoy the benefits, wives must also participate in the competition.

Even if it’s just pure chance that you can become a superman.

“I know to some extent.”

On the outside, he is a generous warrior and hero.

In reality, he is a person who builds a line according to his skill, grace, and taste.

A warrior who is somewhat ignorant, but has risen to his current position with only his fighting skills.

Lorenzo’s personality, which he had only vaguely known, took shape through Lucia’s testimony.

“I just… . He was the child of an ordinary married couple on the outskirts of the county of Fiorene. One day, while helping my parents with their work, I realized that I had become a superhuman. I couldn’t control my strength while milking the cow, so the cow ran amok.”

Lucia laughed bashfully as if imagining that time.

It wasn’t a very pleasant laugh.

“Then it… One of Lorenzo’s wives found out. She secretly used her privates to blackmail her parents.”

“Threat?”

“yes. He said he would take me as his daughter. She had a miscarriage at the time, so she was the lowest in the ranking, and she happened to have the same hair color as me.”

… I’m just drawing a picture.

“But my parents refused, and the woman… Madeleine carried out the kidnapping. After they took me away, they locked me in the basement of the castle for several days and forced me to lie. They said that Lorenzo was outside at the time of the miscarriage. So at that time, I brainwashed myself into telling the story that the child was me, that I was not actually dead, and that I became a superhuman after growing up.”

“I hated it at first… . I had no choice but to threaten them with my parents. They said they would kill my parents if I didn’t listen.”

“So I did. Lorenzo was surprisingly easily fooled.”

“However… . Getting caught was only a matter of time. A few questionable women ventured behind Madeleine’s background, and my father was caught first.”

“Lorenzo got mad at Madeleine for cheating on her, but she didn’t touch me. After all, I’m the superman of the Fiorene family. Instead, my father, who is also the target of other affairs… .”

Lucia paused for a moment.

Meanwhile, there was the sound of a bandage wrapping around her face.

“… In the end, it turned out that I wasn’t even Madeleine’s child. After that, my mother was kicked out of the Fiorene county, and I remained here in an awkward manner… I live like this.”

It is common for aristocrats to have complicated bed situations and family affairs.

He knew that Lorenzo longed for the life of an aristocrat.

Still, I don’t think it’s necessary to resemble all of these things… .

“All of that happened just two weeks after entering Fiorene Castle.”

“But, if the family disliked it that much, I think it would have been possible to go out alone.”

“Right. I thought so too, so I tried it. But it was not allowed again.”

“Are you saying you couldn’t leave?”

“yes. I’ve been thinking about why… . He was happy to know that I was a superman under him, but he must have been angry when he realized that I was not. I guess I was just embarrassed. Since I’m already a superhuman who uses the surname of Fiorene, taking away my surname on my own would have been impossible. Then the value of your castle will go down, right? I think it might be something like that.”

He tells the cruel facts very calmly and calmly.

More surprising than that was her analysis and judgment.

Sharply penetrates Lorenzo’s thoughts and feelings towards him.

I don’t know the truth, but somehow I think that’s right.

It’s similar to the personality of the Lorenzo I know.

I don’t think I’ve ever met Lorenzo in person, considering that we’re talking about it or family matters… .

It’s so ridiculous that it makes me laugh out loud.

“… her.”

“Did you enjoy it?”

“It’s so much fun I’m about to pass out.”

“That’s fortunate.”

“by the way… He, has your physical condition been like this since you were a child?”

“no. This… I do not know. This also started suddenly after entering Fiorene Castle. Like the skin, the condition of the body… .”

“I didn’t do that, but all of a sudden? well, that… . No burns or anything wrong with eating?”

“yes. So, even Lorenzo, who at first cared about me as a superman, began to treat me with disdain. I tried to treat it, but it didn’t work. The way they fight is vulgar, and their skin looks like this… . If your stamina is inferior, it will be useless later.”

I can’t say for sure, but it’s a bit strange.

There are quite a few cases where a congenital chronic illness remains even after becoming a superman.

However, the lesions remain weakened.

Lucia was fine before she became a superhuman, and there were no problems after that.

Then, after entering Fiorene Castle, you suddenly feel unwell?

“… Have you ever met Andrea?”

“I think I’ve seen it casually.”

Lucia probably did, but Andrea could have listened to Lucia quite deeply.

He is the second superintendent who appeared after himself.

I can’t help but care about how she got here.

I hope this… .

“Help.”

“… yes?”

“The fact that I’m not worthy of winning the competition is… I know. Admit it. But, I still want to get out of here.”

Knock knock.

Lucia tapped me on the shoulder.

Turning around, Lucia was nearby, her face covered in fresh bandages.

As soon as I turned, she put a hand on my shoulder.

“Can you help me?”

Since you were talking to the prince, he was saying, isn’t that easy?

“… her.”

No matter what, I wondered if I was revealing too much in the first meeting.

Was this the purpose

It’s shameless, but I can’t hate it for some reason.

“The price of hearing a funny story… I would be grateful if you think about it.”

Lucia smiled and withdrew.

“Honestly, I know it’s far-fetched. Yes. just… I tried.”

After stepping back, Lucia cast her gaze out the window again.

“It was the first time that someone offered to help. I also wanted to ask for help. I think you’ll listen… .”

She sincerely wants that purpose, but she also knows that it’s only natural that I won’t give it to her.

He couldn’t throw away Fiorene’s last name, and even though he knew it, he was obsessed with it.

You can’t ask for help from me, but even knowing that, I tried to say it.

I briefly summarized my thoughts.

Lucia di Fiorene, the only survivor and criminal of the annihilated 2nd Fiorene family.

I thought it might be a risk factor, so I tried to find out… To be bad, well.

Considering what Lorenzo and his family did… Wouldn’t that be normal anger?

You probably didn’t tell me everything.

Minor checks, ignoring, and contempt in the battle for rank.

stuff like that.

In fact, even when I asked the attendants with Lucia on my back earlier, there was someone who left awkwardly.

At first, I thought it was simply because I didn’t know, or because I was an acquaintance of the prince.

However, there is a possibility that he intentionally turned away from Lucia.

As can be seen from the attendant who treated me condescendingly at first.

This whole family is nothing but a character who has taken Lorenzo’s personality and attitude.

Talent is plentiful and abundant.

Simseong wants to know a little more… .

Suddenly, I remembered the moment I saw Lucia for the first time.

“At first he… The person who applied for the dueling contest.”

“Ah yes.”

“Is that person a family member too?”

“yes. Right. He’s a low-ranking ordinary person, and he’s someone who wants to do anything.”

At that time, Lucia was embarrassed in front of others to the extent that she wanted to go too far.

Even though I was able to find Lucia thanks to that, the treatment was severe.

Even so, Lucia only expressed regret at that time, but did not get angry or argue.

Rather, I tried to calmly convince the opponent.

“For saying that he wanted to kill all of the Fiorene family, you’re quite calm.”

At those words, Lucia grinned.

“It was just an idea. I’m not the type to cling to the impossible. To be honest, I’m not that eager… . And, I really don’t think everyone did anything wrong enough to die. There are a lot of people who don’t even have a relationship with me.”

But Lucia in the second playthrough did just that.

That is, two conditions.

Lucia should have the strength to do it.

There must be an opportunity for Lucia to decide to do it.

In other words, the current Lucia is still before that opportunity.

Sooner or later, the prince will clean up this place, so I can find the reason in advance or clean it up.

“I will help you.”

“… uh? yes?”

As if completely unexpected, Lucia was surprised.

“But don’t you ever wonder who I am?”

“… ah.”

For the first time, Lucia stuttered as if embarrassed.

It was quite a new experience for that calm expression to move passionately.

“Yeah, that’s right… . Well… . I’m sorry. who am i… You know? Did you come to know?”

“you’re right.”

“That, so… . who… Are you God?”

Why did she suddenly get sick?

I can think of a possibility, but I’m not sure.

But it doesn’t matter to me now.

Because it is a disease and there is a means to cure it.

“Ian. I am the manager who runs the warrior party.”

“Ah, manager… . That’s why you came to see the dueling competition.”

Lucia nodded as if understanding.

Judgment and boldness befitting a calm personality.

An overwhelming talent that reminds me of Kylie.

I can’t help but be covetous

I asked her doctor, conscious of the elixir hidden in the pocket of the subspace.

“Are you sure you don’t want to become a hero?”

***

Gustav von Brehem.

He shuddered when he received the letter from Henry Somerset.

The Emperor of Japan came to Fiorene City.

Even with the military police.

That fact alone taught me a lot.

There was also a request for help from outside.

‘Damn it… ! If it weren’t for the Holy United Nations… !’

He was still at Kylie’s camp helping her.

Gustaf’s lure in attracting Lorenzo was simple.

There was a time in the past when Lorenzo promised to give Kylie his last name, and then Kylie gave her a dying experience as a gift instead of an answer.

Ever since then, Lorenzo wanted to give Kylie a last name, but it was impossible.

Gustav had previously made connections by giving Kylie free money.

He used that to attract Lorenzo.

I’m going to talk nice about receiving sex, so please help yourself.

He succeeded in persuading Lorenzo, who was shaken by the name Kylie, by citing the name and intimacy of the other 1st party.

However, things only got worse when the naive Lorenzo was blown away.

‘Escape like this… . it would be impossible That light-mouthed Lorenzo must have already boasted my name. Henry might blow my position. Even if the odds are low… .’

Henry’s request was simple.

He knew he was still close to Kylie, so he asked her to come with him.

Just because Kylie comes does not mean that Henry or Gustaf will be cleared of charges or acquitted.

they know that too

However, Kylie’s coming could confuse or make the prince hesitant.

‘In that case, you might be able to escape using Edgar’s secret path… .’

However, it was only when Kylie could be taken.

Gustaf couldn’t possibly convince her.

While Gustav is thinking about it.

At the camp where Kylie was staying, news of the dueling competition had been around for a while.

Meanwhile, someone mentioned Ian, a person who greeted the prince.

While resting in the tent, Kylie heard the name.

‘Ian? That guy is around here… ?’

Now this place is not far from the city of Fiorene.

Kylie quickly got rid of her drunkenness.

The desire to get rid of Ian, who had been eating away at his mind all along, rose at once.

It’s late, but I had to do it now.

‘… okay. This is a duty and a responsibility. It must also be the price you paid for not killing me back then.’

Kylie came out of the tent and declared.

“I’m going to the city of Fiorene right now. Prepare the wagon.”

It was a whimsical order, but no one vomited.

Coincidentally, upon hearing the story, Gustav quickly made a plan.

He said he would go with Kylie and calm things down.

“Is it Kylie?”

“What.”

“I-I know about the city of Fiorene. May I serve as your guide?”

“do whatever you want. It doesn’t matter as long as I can go.”

Gustav sang joy in his heart.

Kylie set off for the city of Fiorene.

*

Oedipus cooked Lorenzo with ease.

His mouth opened as easily as an unlocked door.

A friend currently staying at the castle, Henry Somerset.

And now, Gustav von Brehem, who has been out for a while.

The names of the two soon came out.

And, one of them, Henry Somerset, had just arrived in front of the prince.

“Hwa, see the prince… .”

“Sit down.”

Henry, sitting next to Lorenzo, took a sip of his tea with trembling hands.

It was a moderately formal act.

Oedipus had no intention of ending the two here at all.

More testimony was needed.

“Somerset. Your father was a good teacher.”

Henry Somerset’s father was executed as one of the anti-Imperial coalition figures.

“I’m sorry about the past.”

“Oh, no… .”

“I was thrilled to hear that you were trying to carry on his cause.”

He was talking back so that Lorenzo would not know what was going on.

“Isn’t his plan far too ambitious to accomplish alone? Lorenzo, who is here, must be a person who agrees with the cause.”

Lorenzo smiled, thinking that the prince was saying something good.

Knowing that, Henry’s face grew pale as time passed.

“I can’t do that without knowing about it, as the prince of the empire. Who else besides you?”

the emperor says

“It’s for my personal congratulations, so tell me honestly.”

snitch

“You, the main axis, can pay special attention to it.”

Then, your life can be spared.

“… … .”

Henry didn’t believe it right away.

His purpose was not even treason in the first place.

It’s just plain revenge.

The anti-imperial coalition is just a justification for revenge.

Therefore, Henry does not give in easily even in this suffocating situation.

He took out a plaque to embarrass the prince.

“… Kylie.”

“… What?”

“Beatrice, Aria, Sylvia. Four of the 1st warrior party are with us.”
