I, who was reincarnated as the villain character in a game, was secretly enjoying my role as the villain while pulling off heroic moves behind the scenes. However, my actions were exposed to my fiancée, who absolutely despises me - Episode 77
Episode 77
“Are both of you taking good care of the High Wolves?”
“Yeah! Garing-san is helping us, so everything’s fine!”
“What brings you here today, Lord Reis?”
“I have something to ask Inaesia. I heard she was here, but has she already moved to a different location?”
“Nope. She’s out getting food right now, so I think she’ll be back soon.”
“Is it… perhaps a date invitation!?”
I thought they were children, but their thinking is already that of mature women.
“It’s about work.”
“Oh, really?”
“Yep, really. Anyway, make sure you keep up with your training.”
As the High Wolves approached, I stroked them, and they barked once before heading to Ruf.
With Ruf as their leader, the monster unit is quite well organized.
Considering the original specs of the High Wolves, they’re cheap manpower that cooperates just by providing three meals a day.
“Lord Reis, you mentioned it was about work for Inaesia. Is there something wrong?”
Garing asked, sounding worried.
Well, I can handle most things alone.
They’re probably worried because I need to rely on Inaesia.
“No, nothing dangerous. I just want to ask Inaesia for help in negotiating with the Fairy Tribe.”
“The Fairy Tribe?”
“Yeah. There are various reasons… until Inaesia returns, let me tell you what I’m thinking.”
I explained my thoughts to Garing while we waited.
When he nodded in understanding, Inaesia arrived with a large food crate on a cart.
…Despite her appearance, she’s so strong.
Maybe I’m the same.
“Oh? Lord Reis? What’s up?”
“I have something to discuss with Inaesia.”
“Me?”
Inaesia seemed a bit surprised, then looked at me while lightly adjusting her bangs.
The food Inaesia brought is prepared by Ariana and the others for the High Wolves to eat.
…Commands like “Wait” or “Sit” are taught properly.
And maybe because the High Wolves are smart, everyone moves in a disciplined manner like an army.
They’re really well educated, more than I expected.
“Do you know about the Fairy Tribe?”
“Huh? Yes, I do. We talked a bit when we received a request before.”
“I’m thinking of introducing Fairy Tribe magical tools to the mansion. I want to negotiate with them. Can you help with that?”
“Hmm, okay. It’s fine with me, but when are we going?”
Inaesia seemed a little disappointed.
Did she expect to be asked for something else? Considering her personality, maybe she prefers fighting.
“If it’s the forest to the south, I can teleport there with spatial magic. If I have time later, would you like to go?”
“I’m fine. Just the two of us?”
“That’s the plan, but if you need an escort, I can bring other soldiers—”
“I’m fine! Let’s go!”
…She suddenly became energetic.
Seeing Inaesia smile happily, Garing looked at her warmly.
“Hey, Lord Reis… Can we use the Fairy Tribe’s magical tools?”
Walking with Inaesia near the forest where the Fairy Tribe lives, we talked.
Since I hadn’t entered the forest where the Fairy Tribe lives, we had to walk from here.
“I don’t think there should be any problem. Is there something on your mind?”
“I’m not particularly worried, but I just thought that nobles usually dislike the Fairy Tribe. I know you’re different from other nobles, Lord Reis, but…”
I looked into the reasons why nobles dislike Fairy magical tools further.
One of the main reasons seems to be that since they were first introduced to the guild, they were perceived as tools used by commoners. Additionally, even after introducing magical tools, there are still many mistakes in guild information management, so they’re not trusted even now.
