Chapter 17: The Mastermind is the Malicious Man
Translator: Masakibluei
Agriel’s scream is overshadowed by the officer’s invocation of vow magic. As the officer invokes the magic, both Agriel’s arms are glowing and something resembles thorn patterns appear on her hands. The thorn patterns are tightened on both arms and turn into a bruise color. The pattern seems to function like a handcuff.
Agriel: “What is this!!”
Officer: “That is the sign of Goddess Val’s conviction. From now on, you won’t be able to touch another man. Marrying again is even out of the question.”
Agriel: “What was that!?”
All of a sudden, Agriel runs to Rovel.
Agriel: “Lord Rovel!”
Agriel who is running towards Rovel, tries to cling to him. However, before she gets to touch him, she crashes into some invisible wall. Then a bolt of lightning strikes her out of nowhere with a banging sound.
Agriel: “Kyaaa!”
Amiel: “Esteem Mother!”
Rovel looks at Agriel with cold eyes and makes a resigned expression.
Rovel: “You’ve just been told that you can’t get close………”
Both the King and Lafissel who have been watching silently by the side approach Agriel.
King: “ Agriel…You’ve been foolish up until now……”
Agriel: “Esteem Father! Something must have gone wrong!”
The King ignores Agriel’s claim and turns to Sauvell. When the King standing face to face with Sauvell, he bows down his head.
King: “I’m truly sorry about my daughter…”
The moment he sees the king’s worn-out face, Sauvell becomes unable to say anything. Sauvell is instantly surprised to see the King who becomes much older by 10 years due to the stress.
King: “This is my fault……I thought she would be a little bit more mature if she married into your house……”
Lafissel: “I also would like to apologize. It never comes to my mind that my sister would be this foolish.”
Agriel: “Esteem Father! Older Brother! What nonsense are you talking!?”
King: “Shut up, Agriel. Sauvell, from now on, I would restraint this daughter of mine. This is actually a secret for now, I’m actually planning to bear the responsibility of this turmoil by abdicating the throne. I’m really sorry……”
Lafissel: “ Agriel, it’s such unfortunate. You have driven Esteem Father this far…”
Agriel: “Wha…What kind of nonsense are you saying……?”
Agriel, who is still unable to comprehend the situation is bewilderedly glancing at everyone around her. Albeit everyone is looking at her with a bitter look, among them, her daughter the only one who is looking at her with bafflement on her expression.
Amiel: “Esteem Father… Are you going to cast Amiel away?”
Rovel smiles and replies Amiel who is on the verge of crying.
Rovel: “I am not your Father.”
Amiel: “E?”
Rovel: “You are also not my brother’s child. You are a child of Agriel and another man. You should ask your mother about your true father's identity.”
Amiel: “……E? E?”
Rovel: “You have the blood of the royalty in your vein. From now on you belongs to the Royal Family. Take care of yourself.”
Amiel: “………That’s…”
Hence Rovel leaves the room and lets Amiel dumbfounded by herself. Sauvell who follows behind him suddenly starts to speak casually as if he is reminded of something.
Sauvell: “Agriel, I will request the Royal Family for compensation of your misappropriate uses of Vankriff household funds. I will also send all your personal belongings here, so don’t ever come back again.”
After he spitted out those words, Sauvell leaves the room.
Mother and I who are watching from the water mirror are relief that the problem has been safely solved.
Ellen: “It went smoother than I thought.”
Origin: “Yeah…”
Mother seems to have another thought about the events. She thinks that something does not make any sense. And such, I tilt my head toward her and ask.
Ellen: “What’s wrong?”
Origin: “Uhmm. There is something about the Crown Prince. During the whole affair, he only kept silent and watched the court attentively by the side.”
Ellen: “Ah, that malicious man?”
Origin: “…………what does black-bellied mean?”
(Note: Haraguroi means malicious, if you separated the word and translate it by each kanji, Hara means stomach or belly, Guroi is Kuroi, means black.)
Ellen: “It means that his soul is completely black! It also means a bad person who is sinister or crafty by nature.”
After Mother hears my explanation, she laughs again.
Lafissel returns to his own private room and pour wine into a glass. Although there is no else beside him inside the room, he talks as someone is standing behind him.
Lafissel: “Do you want to drink too?”
Rovel: “………”
Rovel who was hiding his presence compliments him. ‘You are pretty good to notice me.’
Lafissel: “I just saw your reflection from the wine glass. Don’t you know that we, the royal family are unable to borrow some power from the spirits?”
As he said that Lafissel sips the wine with his mouth.
Rovel: “………Are you satisfied that you get what you want?”
In response to Rovel, Lafissel laughs while he answers him.
Lafissel: “Completely satisfied. I finally get to put both my father and my sister who were in the way, far far away. It perhaps thanks to your late return?”
Rovel: “I have no intention to go back though…”
Lafissel: “Aa, I heard. You have a family on the ‘other side’ right?”
Rovel wrinkles his eyebrows after he heard Lafissel’s words.
Lafissel: “I heard you have a cute daughter. I’m quite interested in her. Would you let her meet my son? What do you think?”
Rovel: “I refuse.”
Lafissel laughs at Rovel who retorted back mercilessly.
Lafissel: “Do you think I am the one who pushed Agriel to your little brother? I was trying to stop it, you know?”
Rovel: “Is that so? I don’t think Agriel would be able to come up with a risky plan to roll herself inside my brother’s room when he was drunk. Even without me going back to my household, you are capable to smash your own sister.”
Lafissel: “A HAHAHAHA.”
Lafissel can’t stop laughing like crazy. Based on his reaction, Rovel immediately realizes that Sauvell’s misfortune was meticulously planned by Lafissel.
Lafissel: “It’s unexpected that you become a man who is adopted into your wife's family…”
Rovel: “Well, that’s too bad.”
Lafissel: “Such a pity. Even though I want you as my little brother.”
When Rovel first came to the palace at the age of 5 years old, Laffisel immediately recognized his potential talents. Then he promptly suggested an engagement between Rovel and Agriel to his parents. Since then, Lafissel kept staying by his side. From the time when Rovel was very young, it was imprinted in his head that he would be Lafissel’s right-hand man in the future.
Rovel: “I’ll receive the reward as you promised. Don’t ever contact my family again. “
Lafissel: “……”
Lafissel is letting a sigh over Rovel’s remark.
Lafissel: “Let’s put this aside for now. There is even Agriel’s matter to do.”
Rovel: “From now on, just do so. Your Highness.”
After that Rovel teleports and leaves Lafissel by himself in a room without no one else. Inside the empty room, Lafissel laughs by himself.
When Rovel returns to the manor, he is greeted by Albert.
Albert: “Welcome back.”
Rovel: “Where is Sauvell?”
Albert: “He came back a little bit earlier. Today is a celebration day…”
Rovel: “Albert.”
Albert: “Yes…”
Rovel: “I don’t know if you do this for the sake of our household, but don’t induce my wrath anymore.”
Albert: “………”
Rovel: “If you can’t distinguish the master that you have to serve, then leave Sauvell’s side. Take penitence for a while. “
Albert: “………I understood.”
Then Rovel passes through Albert who is lowering his head without any quiver, and goes into the manor.
