Became the Son-in-Law of the Traitorous Family

4. Taming the Shrew – 01

“Clean up the casino for now.”

After she formally became her “Master” Of her sage, the first order I gave her was that.

“You were actually running this casino, right? From now on, I won’t have the time to stay stuck in a casino, so dispose of it on your own.”

Despite being told to dispose of a business that is unquestionably the number one casino in the empire, and that brings endless amounts of money just like a goose that lays golden eggs just by sitting still, there is not a single movement on Sei’s expression. Did not

“Okay. I was going to entrust the operation of the casino to someone else to serve on the owner anyway.”

“Well, don’t worry. If you follow me around in the future, you will get countless opportunities to collect human desires. At least it’s a much more efficient way than sitting quietly in a casino.”

“… Did you know that too?”

“I think it’s even more strange that an angel has a different reason for shutting himself in a casino and secretly voyeuring humans?”

The statement that the angel was crazy about gold or gambling would be even more unbelievable than the statement that the polar bear actually liked Fanta more than Coke.

“Anyway, starting today, your superficial identity is not the hidden manager of the Kittilan Casino, but the exclusive handmaid of Reiner von YoRHa, Grand Duke of the Principality of YoRHa. So that you know.”

For reference, ‘Rainer von Jorha’ is my official name after I became the son-in-law of the Grand Duke.

Of course, the name ‘Rainer Kreuze’ just felt more familiar to me.

“… I have no intention of serving anyone other than Master.”

When Sei spoke in a firm voice, as if she could never yield that much, I replied with a chuckle.

“Ah, come to think of it, didn’t I tell you? Archduke YoRHa, Reiner von YoRHa is me.”

“Is your current identity the rumored Grand Duke of Yohrha?”

At that, Sei looked at me with an understanding expression.

“For some reason, the level of military power of the maid who served by the side of the master was quite high. Was she the one who acted as your master’s escort?”

“No, she’s just my maid. A simple normal person who doesn’t know anything about magic.”

“However, not only did she accumulate considerable magical energy within her body, but she was the only one who noticed my presence.”

“That’s why I bother dragging him all over the place.”

I smirk and smile mischievously.

“He is the Heavenly King. To be precise, it should be called the ‘bowl’ of Celestial Spirit.”

“Yes? But as far as I know, I heard that the present Heavenly Princess is an old man over seventy….”

While answering, Sei seemed to have noticed what I was talking about.

“I see. It means that she is the heavenly princess in the future that the master foresaw.”

“It’s not all that good for me that he’s going to be a skylord.”

“… ? What else do you mean….”

Sei tilts her head as if she doesn’t understand what I’m saying.

As long as she was completely subordinate to me, there was no fear of leaking the secret, so I gave a brief explanation of my current situation.

“The Grand Duchy’s rebellion against the Empire that will happen three years later, the bond of causal law entangled between the Master and the Grand Duchess, and even the blessing of the Goddess of Love… To be honest, it’s a really unbelievable list of things.”

“Isn’t it? So I can’t go anywhere and make a fuss about it. Even when I look at it, I think it’s a list of really nonsense things.”

“But I believe.”

“Huh?”

“Master, you are a pioneer of the path led by the stars and at the same time a great person who can be said to be a prophet of this world! My judgment is not important. If my master said so, that is my truth, and it must be the truth.”

“…..”

From noble mtl dot com

It couldn’t have been a similar kind of belief as the grandfathers of Line 1 who shouted that Bill Gates implanted microchips in vaccines to brainwash people, and that the Illuminati and Reptilians exist behind them.

‘I’ll have to ask later if you believe in the theory of a flat earth.’

Well, actually, it didn’t matter if Sei doubted me and didn’t believe me. Because she had no intention of buying her faith with just a snout.

“Let’s get this first.”

I took out a wad of paper from her chest and handed it to Sei.

“What is this?”

“This is the location of several dungeons whose existence is not yet known to the world. It’s not just the location of the dungeons, it’s written in detail about how to attack them, so please refer to them.”

“More, do you mean the locations of the dungeons and how to attack them?”

At my words, Sei looks at me with eyes that are truly absurd.

That’s right. No matter how famous an explorer or adventurer is, a dungeon is so hard to find that it’s hard to find a dungeon in a lifetime, and most of the cases are hidden.

However, since the locations of the extremely secretive dungeons are casually revealed as if the location of a local convenience store that sells Pokemon bread is written down, it must be absurd.

‘In fact, this is just information that can be easily memorized by clearing the game roughly 10 times.’

I want to go around the dungeons by myself, consuming a lot of skills and hidden pieces that the original protagonist should have obtained, and then looking at the weakened protagonist and thinking, “What? Why is this guy so poor compared to the original?’ I wanted to cheat, but unfortunately I didn’t have much time.

[Currently, you have 2 years, 352 days, 3 hours and 16 minutes remaining due to the effect of [Goddess of Love’s Blessing (A+)].]

‘f*ck.’

In terms of the setting, the continent that is the background of 「Erantia Saga」, That is, the size of the continent of Yusitania is really filthy wide.

‘According to the producers, it is similar in size to the combined continents of Eurasia and the Americas.’

Of course, due to realistic problems in the game, I couldn’t properly implement a ten-thousandth, no, a ten-millionth of the overall size, but this f*cking world I fell into is not the world in the game.

It was impossible for me, who was virtually on the verge of life because of that sh*tty [Goddess of Love’s Blessing (A+)], To leave the Princess and go round and round as if touring dungeons around the world.

But that doesn’t mean that letting the main character run around and eat the hidden pieces five years later was quite heartbreaking, so I tried a trick like this.

“I am well aware of the fact that you have been running a casino on the ground for the past time and have built up a following of you. Although they may not have great military power, if you use the information I wrote down well, it won’t be too much for them to clear the dungeon on their own.”

“Okay.”

“Ah, I almost forgot, but if nothing else, clear the dungeon in the Earl of Lowhurst, located in the middle and south of the Empire, and bring the reward to me. The reward from that dungeon is someone who is very helpful to me.”

“I will tell you that.”

If it were Cirilla, I would have said ‘why?’ Was very comfortable.

“I will gradually explain what you will be entrusted with in the grand duchy. I want to tell you everything right now, but unfortunately I’m a bit busy right now.”

If I spend more time here, not only Cirilla, who will be waiting for me anxiously outside, but also our Minister of the Interior, who will be waiting for my quick return from the principality, will try to drink me.

Perhaps the unfortunate situation may happen when I return home and the PS5 that was enshrined in my room is floating on top of the bathtub.

“… Is there anything else you intended besides taking me in?”

“Unfortunately, this is what I have to do if I want my head to be on top of my neck in three years.”

Since ancient times, life is like a box of chocolates. Sometimes, even if I don’t want it, I’m going to get some damn chocolate.

“Say, do you remember what the ‘prophecy’ I just said?”

“… Are you saying that three years from now, the Grand Duchess will rebel against the Empire?”

“Yeah, that one.”

I looked at Sei’s face and giggled.

“Let me ask you a question. Judging by you, how likely do you think the Grand Duchess’s rebellion against the Empire will succeed?”

As if Sei didn’t think it was worth thinking about my question, she opened her mouth with a firm tone.

“It is impossible.”

“Why? Do you think the Grand Duchess is a woman so stupid as to get involved in a situation where there is no chance?”

“No, I am fully aware of what an outstanding human being the Grand Duchess is. I have heard that the princess of the Grand Duchy of Yohrha, Karin von Charlotte Yohrha, is a woman who is smart and intelligent, who does not easily forget what she has learned once and easily sees through the other side of things, and who is perfect as a monarch.”

“… Is it?”

In my eyes, she only looks like a strange woman with something dark inside.

“But the master will know. No matter how outstanding the Grand Duchess is, it is still a story as a human being. Those who lurk behind the empire and the imperial family are not the ones that can be overthrown with mere human power.”

That is a fact I am well aware of. Wasn’t that why I, too, didn’t even think about the success of the Grand Duchess’s rebellion?

“Then what if we help the Grand Duchess?”

“If the story is under the assumption that Master and I are helping the Grand Duchess? Then… “

Sei pondered something about her, and then she carefully opened her mouth.

“In that case, it would not be completely out of the question. But… Can’t the master, let alone me, show up and help the Grand Duchess?”

Say was right. There was an inevitable reason why Sei couldn’t do anything that stood out to the public, and I also had a reason why I couldn’t directly reveal her identity and help the Grand Duchess.

‘Because not all death variables related to the Grand Duchess have been eliminated yet.’

As far as I know, there are easily over 10 quests related to the Grand Duchess in 「Erantia Saga」. However, only 3 quests were destroyed.

Although I’m not very smart, I still had no problem doing addition and subtraction for numbers below 10.

‘In one word, it must mean that there are 7 generous pieces of sh*t related to the Grand Duchess left somewhere.’

However, if I stepped on that sh*t, it would be a very big problem that it wouldn’t just end with a dirty feeling.

In the end, there was only one way to solve all of this.

“Then we just need to appoint a substitute to replace us. Is not it?”

“However, the Grand Duchess is not a very easygoing person. She’s certainly not such an idiot that she doesn’t notice that in such an important matter, she’s not the head of the other side, but a mere scarecrow.”

“Don’t worry about that. Do you know of just the right person I could use for this?”

A person who can be used as a puppet that only obeys Sei and I, and at the same time, a person who is in a position that other people can’t imagine that he is not the head of an organization.

“How about the hidden princess of the empire? Will it be useful enough?”

“… Yes?”

She inherits the noble lineage of the imperial family, but at the same time, she is a woman who gave her entire life for the destruction of her empire.

Princess of the Empire, Eurica del Cartesia.

She was the last piece left in the picture I was drawing.
