It Seems I've Been Reincarnated As A Mob Character In An Otome Game World, But The Prince Dropped Out Before It Even Started - Episode 29
I’ve been betting everything on this one strike.
I was hated from the moment I was born. My life has been constantly threatened.
Her grief is understandable. She was betrayed by the man she loved and adored as her fiancé.
Born into a prestigious marquis family, I was desired by those around me as the rightful empress and fell in love.
However, the one her fiancé loved was not her but another woman. The daughter of a viscount family that was far beneath her own family’s status.
The fiancé called the betrayal true love, took away the status and honor that were supposed to belong to the woman, and gave them to his beloved daughter.
At least a concubine… no, a favored mistress would be enough. If I had been treated as someone whose sole purpose was to satisfy his desires, I could have preserved my pride as a woman.
The daughter was welcomed as the principal wife, and the woman became the man’s concubine.
Treated as a spare, she became pregnant. Because a spare child with royal bl00d was needed.
And then the man’s beloved daughter died. The position of the rightful queen, which could not be vacated, finally belonged to the woman.
The daughter died, but the man never loved the woman.
The man loved the child left behind by his beloved daughter. The woman gave birth to the child alone.
Beloved child. A child connected by bl00d. A child like me, not loved by men.
Then I will love him. I will make this child the next king. Absolutely.
The hatred directed at my daughter is now directed at the remaining child, and all the love I had for the man is now directed at my own child.
He was raised solely by the love of his father.
You were cherished as the beloved daughter’s memento. You were also loved and adored.
But, what does that matter?
Except for the king, everyone around me was an enemy. My biological mother’s family was terrified of the queen and was of no help at all.
For some reason, the half-brother seemed to look up to him. But he couldn’t take his hand.
If you get closer, there will be retaliation from the rightful queen. I told them not to come near, but it didn’t get through.
I’m with my father. He believes he is the only one who is right.
After that, without considering the damage he would suffer.
Eventually, the king chose a fiancée. A supporter he finally selected for his own good.
From the moment we met, I understood it was impossible.
The fiancée who never tried to look at him. From the beginning, she kept her distance, and she drew closer to her half-brother.
The half-brother fell in love with his brother’s fiancée, knowing she was engaged to him.
They left the two who were falling into an illicit love, believing it to be true love.
When I heard that he had crossed the line, all I could do was laugh.
Ah, indeed, he is the king’s son. To live true love for two generations in a row.
You believe that if it’s true love, everything is forgivable?
So, Cedric Lakewood sent words of blessing to his mother-in-law after everything was over.
Because it was true love, I informed the mother of the parties involved, providing evidence that her son had indeed seduced his brother’s fiancée.
Your Highness, the Empress.
The child you gave birth to is indeed His Majesty’s child.
Because I fell in true love, I had a relationship with my half-brother’s fiancée.
If they were noble children, they would have been invited during the engagement period, when they should have exercised restraint and maintained their purity.
While stealing his half-brother’s fiancée, he pretends that it’s unavoidable because it’s true love.
Truly, that is the child of His Majesty.
Even though she was a noble lady with a fiancé she swore to God, she committed infidelity.
If it was true love, did they think that having a fiancé was the same as not having one? That it was only natural for two people in love to be together?
Your son and the young lady who will become your daughter-in-law are a perfect match, sharing the same values.
Please sincerely bless their true love, the two who are united by true love.
“Lord Cedi, over here.”
Cedric, who was reviewing documents in the office, was offered freshly brewed tea by Hubert, who had recently become his chief aide.
Next to the cup of black tea, there was a newspaper ordered from the royal capital a month late. He picked up the folded newspaper with a sticky note on the article and narrowed his golden eyes.
Wet my lips with tea and spread the newspaper on the desk, ignoring the documents.
The article was very small.
Her Highness the Empress has left the royal castle for treatment and has entered the sanatorium in her family’s marquisate.
“Since this is a month-late article, he has probably already returned to the marquisate and received the poisoned cup.”
“Did Ian, whom I entrusted, do it?”
“Because you said it was your last service.”
Thanks to the efforts you put in, we were able to take the initiative.
The day the officials, the priest, the former fiancée, the duke’s daughter, and the half-brother visited Lakewood.
Cedric, having prepared all the pieces, took action.
Carrying three purity judgment papers and a letter addressed to the rightful queen written by Cedric, Ian heads towards the royal capital.
Until he descended the mountain, he rode alone on horseback, and upon reaching the town at the foot of the mountain, he immediately boarded the waiting car. Without taking a break day or night, Ian switched to a new car in each town and finally arrived in the royal capital. He headed straight to the newspaper office first.
Leak the royal family’s joyous occasion anonymously.
The newly appointed heir to the throne, the second prince, will marry the former first prince’s fiancée in a union of true love.
Like my father, it is a marriage bound by true love and should be blessed.
Several newspapers and publishers readily accepted the leak and made it into an article.
The royal family’s “true love” is well-received by the common people.
Just like the romance between the current king and the viscount’s daughter, the royal family was praised and celebrated for living true love for two generations.
After the article’s content spread, Ian tidied himself up and headed to the royal castle.
I hand over a letter from Cedric, accompanied by evidence of the vow not to disclose it to the public.
And then, the empress consort read the letter.
“He did not understand what it meant for God’s protection to be lifted.”
So, it went crazy easily.
It seems that upon the return of the second prince and the duke’s daughter, he shouted, “You two as well!” and attacked them with a dagger in hand.
While uttering curses and wielding a dagger, he even attacked His Majesty, who tried to stop him.
“And that’s the end of it.”
A woman who raises a blade against the king cannot possibly be forgiven.
It was widely known among the nobility that he had broken the magical contract he made with Lord Cedric, so even his family did not defend him.
The next newspaper will probably have the news of the queen’s death.
“It’s an article that Alexis doesn’t need to read. Dispose of it before he notices.”
“Understood.”
Cedric set the folded newspaper aside. Hubert immediately picked it up.
“Ian?”
I returned to the town at the foot of Lake Mountain.
From now on, it seems that they will be supporting Lady Cedi over there with their family.
Originally, it was Hubert who was supposed to take over Ian’s position much earlier.
However, Cedric assigned him a different role.
Place him next to the boy with pink hair and have him protect him.
So that the empress can handle it if she notices his feelings. We have placed someone to help the boy no matter what difficulties he faces.
Directing my gaze towards the outside visible from the large window of the office.
In the wide garden leading to the forest, a boy with pink hair was playing with a white baby dragon.
I’m throwing a handmade small wooden plate called a frisbee into the sky.
The young dragon flies close to the spinning, floating plate, catches it with its mouth, and returns.
It seemed they weren’t getting bored, as the boy and the baby dragon continued to play with the frisbee, laughing all the while.
While watching the scene, Cedric became aware of his lips loosening.
I couldn’t laugh at all in that castle, but recently I’ve started to laugh a lot.
I was kidnapped on a whim by the empress, who thought it would be good for me to be physically and mentally harmed, and then thrown into the slums.
I was violently assaulted as if they were toying with me, and although I managed to escape with great difficulty, my body could no longer move.
I despaired at the thought of dying here in the corner of the road.
The boy with pink hair who helped me when I was like that.
Beloved Alexis.
Knowing that I was in an orphanage, they took me in to their lower noble family. For some reason, I ended up becoming a member of the dark side of the Irving family.
But thanks to that, I was able to keep it close.
Since I am engaged, I was planning to be satisfied just by having you by my side.
But my fiancé betrayed me.
The two who said they would live for true love.
Then, shouldn’t we also be allowed to live for true love?
I informed Hubert that I was taking a break and stepped out of the office through the open large window.
When I called his name, the boy with pink hair looked over and smiled happily.
Goodbye, mother-in-law.
Your husband, your son, and me. Let’s live for the true love you hated the most.
