The Villainess in the Romance Fantasy Is Strange - Chapter56

56. Flow of change (1)

In the evening, the Reinhard family’s office without Cain.

The acting head of household, Ruin Reinhardt, sitting in front of his office desk, blew mana into a magic tool for communication.

Flash-.

A blue flash occurred. At the same time as a faint halo of light flowed from the magic tool, a profound middle-aged voice pretended to know.

—Hmm, is it Ruin Reinhardt?

“Earl Macmillan.”

As usual, Ruin Reinhardt would have started a conversation in a flirtatious way, such as by telling jokes first. For some reason, his expression hardened.

Sueup, whoop-.

Ruin Reinhardt took a deep breath and opened fire in a slightly stiff voice.

“I have a serious matter, so I will tell you without saying anything.”

─A serious matter? What is that all of a sudden…….

“There is a disturbing force targeting the count’s daughter and my brother.”

— ….

Macmillan beyond the magic tool stiffened.

However, that was only for a while.

Macmillan immediately replied in a much cooler tone.

─This is solid information, right?

“Sure. Some of the information I heard directly from my brother, and others say that I was actually attacked.”

─What? Attack? …… Is your body fine?

“Yes. Your limbs are fine, so there’s nothing you can’t do as a man.”

It may sound like a joke, but Ruin Reinhardt, who said it seriously, tapped the desk.

“Roach.”

─Wheels?

“You guys.”

It was a metaphor that jumped out of the blue, but Macmillan understood it right away.

That’s true, because there is only one organization in the empire that is called the ‘wheel’.

Macmillan sighed when he realized that the wheel was a church dedicated to the evil god Sisyphus.

— … Her.

It wasn’t fear or a sigh out of fear.

Macmillan’s lamentation is a lamentation that blames ‘his own complacency for not subduing it right away even though he knew of the existence of a wheel-like force that was eating away at the empire’.

Do you think that as a result of her brief complacency, her own precious daughter has become a target of insignificant things……. Beyond the absurdity, anger comes to the point.

Macmillan worked hard to get rid of his anger and asked calmly.

─Did you find out the home base?

“No, but it won’t take long. Because we released reliable seeds.”

—Yes, if it were the family members of the Reinhardt family… …. It won’t take long. As soon as you figure out the whereabouts, let me know.

“Are you going to step out yourself?”

─They say they’re after my daughter, of course I’ll have to tear them limb from limb with my own hands.

It was a very bloody content for what I said calmly. More importantly, Earl Macmillan could do that. He is a man of formidable power.

No wonder Earl Macmillan was an outstanding wizard who was once called the Great Sage of the Empire. It’s the home of cockroaches, but if you find out, it’s enough to annihilate them all alone.

“In that case, I should accompany you instead of just sending my family.”

─Is there even a need for you to go out on your own?

“I’ve been confined to my house these days, and my body is sore. Even at a time like this, shouldn’t we get some fresh air?”

─I can only catch a few roaches……. Oh, the nickname “Sword master” Is going to cry.

“Isn’t it the best way to keep the wheels from rusting, sir?”

— … In-laws?

Macmillan’s eyebrows twitched at the new title.

Ruin Reinhardt turned around in a calm tone, not knowing what to do.

“Oh, Count Macmillan. This is just a joke.”

─Something.

“That, the hunting festival you mentioned earlier. That my brother had disrespected your daughter.”

— … Ruin Reinhardt. Cover up your words.

Macmillan gave off a somewhat uncomfortable expression, as if to not bring it up, but Ruin Reinhardt didn’t mind and continued.

Aside from all that, he was curious.

What happened to Lia von Eleves and Cain Reinhardt that night?

What happened between the two of them, did they even come up with the word “Responsibility”?

“Is it okay if I ask you about everything?”

* * *

At the same time, the Eleves family’s mansion.

Lying on her own wide bed, with her pillow tucked under her chest, Lia was communicating with someone transcending space.

The person she communicates with using her communication demon tool is none other than the third princess of the Empire, Iris.

The two people who made a kite during the hunting festival developed like this from time to time to talking about each other’s current situation or personal affairs.

──Ah, indeed! Leah, so what happened that night?

“Yes? Is it that night?”

—The night of the hunting festival. After the banquet, Lia and her fiancé went to the guest room alone, right? … ?

As Iris’s voice softened, the memories of her day appeared vaguely in Lia’s head.

“Ah…. Yes, did you?”

─I don’t know because I haven’t seen you since the two of you disappeared……. I went with champagne, and the atmosphere seemed good. Key, we kissed…… ?!

“… ….”

Should I be honest or not?

Although it was only for a moment, Lia, who was thinking more seriously than ever before, came to her conclusion.

‘It will be impossible to confirm anyway… ….’

Let’s tell her a spoonful of her truth, half mixed with her own wishes and delusions.

“Yes, what… …. Did you kiss?”

—Hey…… ! Really?!

I was a little embarrassed to even call it a kiss because it was an infinitely light bud kiss that just brushed her lips lightly, but it wasn’t a lie.

That’s true, isn’t it true that my lips met Cain’s?

‘…… That it was a kiss like a five-year-old would do.’

Let’s just hide it. Iris won’t laugh at me because she likes people, but if I tell her, I’ll be the only one who’ll sell her.

“Yes, really.”

─How many times? How many times did you do it?

“…… Well. I don’t remember very well. Maybe not too much?”

It’s a lie.

Cain was frightened even though their lips only touched slightly, so she only brushed once and it was over.

─Uh, I did so much that I can’t even remember how much I did?!

“At that time, it was because we were drunk with each other. Did you see Iris-sama too? She said he drank too much at the banquet hall.”

As the winner of the hunting festival, he drank so much, and also drank strong champagne, so it’s natural for him to get drunk.

And, drunk men and women have no choice but to be tolerant of skinship.

Lea’s words were indeed plausible, so Iris was fooled.

— … That, then there it is Are you done kissing?

“…… Yes?”

——Stop, no way. It went further from there…… ?!

Lea didn’t answer on purpose and took a lot of time. The reason is simple.

‘Actually, nothing happened… ….’

Cain was so drunk that the night passed without her having time to do anything.

It sounds really sad, and it sounds like a salty sound. Even in Iris’s head, Lia said that Cain and she were like that……. She wanted to work.

“… ….”

But thinking about it makes me a little angry.

Cain, how much alcohol did that idiot drink? Can she sit on the bed and have a conversation and then just fall asleep at some point?

That’s not an ordinary situation, even though she showed her wearing the erotic underwear she prepared with a big heart.

If it was normal, wouldn’t it be normal for her eyes to turn around and do something…… ?

“…… Am I not that attractive?”

—Huh? What? I didn’t hear you, Leah!

“Oh, no. It’s nothing. …… How far have we been talking?”

─I was just about to ask if it was over with a kiss!

“Aha, um… ….”

At Iris’ curiously excited question, Lia huffed and hushed her voice.

‘I started mixing delusions… ….’

I just have to say that, even in my imagination, I went out of my way.

After completing her impure decision, Lia insinuatedly let go of her luck.

“…… That’s it. Actually, he is that night.”

─Hmm, is that him?

“You grab my shoulder and confess that you like me, right?”

─Oh, really? Did her fiancé confess first?!

“Yes, but. That wasn’t the end.”

─That wasn’t the end…… ?

“Looks like he mustered up some courage, so I smiled and nodded her head. But she mistook it for some signal, she said, and her expression became very serious. Her fingers just went down my clothes…….”

─Huh…… !

After hearing all of Lia’s descriptions, which have nothing to do with reality and are almost delusional. Iris felt ashamed and astonished at the same time.

Lia’s fiancé, her male counterpart, had a rather stiff atmosphere, but her personality itself seemed very gentle. If Lia’s words are true, half of them, no, she’s almost like a beast…… ?

No matter how engaged you are, no matter how drunk you are. How could she just rip off her clothes and leave marks with her lips here and there on her skin? Later, after sobering up, we are both embarrassed, so what are we going to do…….

“…… Just like that, we were hugging each other. Was it around three in the morning? I was so thirsty, but I couldn’t move, so I asked him to bring me a glass of water. However.”

─That, by the way?

“He put the water in his mouth and tapped his own lips. If he wants to drink, he wants to kiss him.”

─That, so…… ?!

“Since he needs to drink water, he has no choice but to bring his lips to you? But at that moment, he hugged me tightly as if he had waited. I lightly kissed his lips, smiled, and tapped my front teeth with his tongue… ….”

─Oh my, oh my goodness…… !
