072 – It’s hard to buy my own house! #12

072 – It’s hard to buy my own house! #12

I’m old and mad like a madman.

The former white wizard, Faust von Walpurgis, must have been quite a magnate.

As I stepped on his neck and twisted it, I felt a rather thick and deep karma build up in my body.

50 levels.

It felt like I had taken a few steps towards it.

“It’s a big deal.”

I let out a slight disgust as I watched the old man cool down.

Jerk-.

Then I heard footsteps behind me.

When I turned my head, the white magician Friede was looking at me holding a staff.

“Don’t look at me as a woman.”

It was a light but serious warning.

I really don’t care if a woman, an old man or a child attacks me.

Egalitarian in the true sense of the word.

At my warning, the white wizard Friede withdrew his staff and sighed.

“… In a situation where the book was burned and the family head of the previous generation died, our loss must be certain… . But I’m not stupid enough to emotionally turn you into an enemy. I can’t beat you.”

Friede said calmly.

“It’s smart,” he answered, but perhaps it was a bluff—when he was thinking about it, Friede said in a voice that didn’t seem to relax even though he held down his staff.

“My father… , the previous generation’s family was strong. However, due to arrogance and carelessness, we lost miserably. I think I know why. You are stronger than anyone I’ve ever seen. but it looks funny Like a clown.”

“… … .”

“Both bees and snakes, those with dangerous venom emit intense warning colors. It overwhelms opponents by emitting threats with its entire body. But in your case it’s the exact opposite. It’s easy to look down on anyone… .”

“is it.”

“Wouldn’t it be possible to win if I attacked you even at this moment? is this your strategy? never showing off oneself. Like a curled up snake, suppressing and suppressing oneself so that it appears to crawl on the ground?”

Perhaps because he was young, Friede seemed to be smarter than his father, Faust.

To see through to the fact that I am a person who is easy to look down on than my real existence.

This was a kind of deception tactic.

Swipe the dagger hidden in the bosom of the opponent who was looking at me funny.

It always worked out well.

Friede said confidently.

“You are deceiving everyone with lies. No, isn’t it ‘people’ who are trying to deceive? What you’re deceiving is the world itself. “Nocturne’s Vessel”. Was the rumor true?”

“… … .”

“I ask the question of the first time we met. Judas, do you hear hallucinations or have nightmares? no… . That stage has already passed. You’ve become your own nightmare… . Poor human… .”

“Why don’t you expose other people’s means of earning a living? If you say more than that, I can no longer guarantee your life. You might have ears to hear.”

Deception did not work easily for someone with a good sense like Friede.

Fortunately, I don’t think I’ll have to fight useless——just as I was thinking about it, a young boy who seemed to be about ten years old appeared and hid behind Friede.

“… mom.”

He was a boy who seemed to have at least a B in the princely power, the male version of the princess power.

If you kidnap and ransom, you’ll get some money.

“Mom, what’s going on… ? who is that… ? I’m scared… . Grandpa why… .”

“It’s okay, Zeke. It’s nothing. Hurry back to your room. hurry. Lock the door and don’t come out until mom calls… !”

Friede hid the boy who appeared to be her son behind her back and pointed the wand at me again.

The woman’s face, which had been detached from talking about this and that until just now, began to stiffen with tension.

A single drop of sweat drips from your forehead.

Are you determined to protect your child?

If other people saw this scene, it would look like a scene where a riotous robber breaks into a house, kills an old man, and scares even the poor hat.

I’ll look like a villain

Because it’s actually similar.

“Are you afraid of me?”

“… … .”

The woman did not answer.

Hiding the child behind himself, it seemed that he couldn’t bear to let go of his mouth.

I spoke seriously to such a woman.

“That fear will lengthen your life a little bit. don’t bother me anymore Because you memorized your son’s face. Aren’t you stupid enough to not know what this means?”

I intimidated her as a villain should.

Then, Friede frowned and nodded slowly.

“… All right.”

The story ends there.

I searched for the arms of the now dead old man.

I had to find Aru or something.

“Where are you?”

But the beads were not visible.

The only thing that came out of the bosom was a scroll tightly sealed with a magic seal.

It seemed like a pretty expensive item.

very very

The smell of ‘treasure’ was strong.

I immediately activated the Brain Physical Rank S-class skill, “Emotion Eye”.

“Roll of the Walpurgis family: A scroll containing the secret truth of the Walpurgis family. When a person with talent reads it, magic can be accomplished. Magic skill +1, princess power +1」

Oh wow… !

An item that increases princess power as well as magic skills?

It was awesome.

But it wasn’t the ‘Aru’ I was looking for.

I’ll take care of it for now, but when I felt a little tired, Friede held out his hand to me.

“you… .”

A small marble lay on her white glove.

said Friede.

“Let me ask you one thing. Is Naru your daughter? ?”

“that’s right.”

“… Are you sure?”

assurance?

What does it mean to ask that now?

Friede would not have known that Naru had come from six years into the future.

But there is only one answer for me here.

“Even if you’re not really my daughter, if you think I’m a daughter, you’re my daughter. If you think you’re a stranger, you’re a stranger even if you’re connected by blood. Since they are educated nobles, don’t they know better than me?”

“… … .”

Shuk-.

I took the orb and returned to the dark basement.

However, there was no Brigitte in the dungeon.

where did you go

After looking around for a while, I noticed that there was a narrow gap in the dungeon and that there was a secret room inside.

It was a cramped space.

When two adults entered, it was so full that I had to bend over forcibly.

A few candles were lit and all kinds of junk was piled up, but the atmosphere was quite cozy.

“It’s a nice hideaway.”

I said.

Then Brigitte, who was sewing dolls in the hideout, spoke.

“This was my home. it was my room And here Aru the teddy bear was my one and only and my family. I forgot about it for a long time… .”

Shuk-.

I held out the marble to Brigitte.

After receiving it, Brigitte made a subtle expression in many ways.

and then asked me

“My father… going… ?”

“No more. I got into an accident during a reckless magic experiment. At least it will be announced that way.”

Killing a colleague’s father was more horrific than I thought.

Especially if that colleague is a woman I have a crush on.

Soon, Brigitte held the marble in her hand and spoke softly.

“Judas, I gave you a terrible experience.”

“It doesn’t even show that I’m coming now and adding a few more pictures to my album of terrible memories. Rather, are those marbles enough? Unfortunately, I couldn’t steal your diary. It burned and disappeared.”

“For now, this is enough. Just this.”

Brigitte put the marble I gave her into the teddy bear.

Then, with some skill, he sewed the teddy bear’s stomach, and the teddy bear’s body began to slowly creak.

“… bridge… frame… !”

Finally, the teddy bear lifted its arms.

However, the voice was small.

It sounded like a sound coming from a broken radio.

“Aruya, it’s good.”

However, seeing that scene, Brigitte let out a small sigh of relief.

It must be that you feel fortunate just for the doll to talk.

“Brigitte, we have to get out of here… .”

“I’m fine now.”

Brigitte stroked the flustered doll with her hand.

Then the teddy bear, Aru, tilted his head.

“this… am i okay? Brigitte, don’t cry anymore… ?”

“yes.”

“I don’t know what’s going on… but it’s fine… Goa.”

“Yes.”

“thank god. and Brigitte. It was very nice to meet you after a long time. what happened in the meantime? Did you have a lot of fun? Did you eat too many strawberries?”

“yes. I ate a lot.”

Brigitte told a lot of her story.

To graduate as an excellent student at school.

Traveling the world to defeat the demon king, etc.

After listening to the story for a while, the teddy bear Aru hugged Brigitte.

“… What a story! And good luck! I… Brigitte, you left this mansion… that… When you know… worried a lot… I did. But I think I’m doing fine. I now… .”

“Come with me. Aruya. I have a nice place. You will like it when you see it too. There are even little ones who would love to play with you!”

“That… Maybe… . It must be fun… . But unfortunately… . My time is almost up… . Brigitte, it was good to see your face… .”

“I, I will make it again! I can’t remember exactly how I made it! I’ve done it once, so somehow… !”

“Ugh.”

Aru the teddy bear shook his head from side to side.

Then he said in a low voice.

“Brigitte, you don’t need me anymore… uh. I’ve always dreamed of To the extent that you forgot me… . To live happily and happily… . Now, I can rest in peace… .”

“… … .”

“A wonderful adult… . Brigitte… . not… Bye forever… .”

That was the end of the teddy bear’s words.

Brigitte didn’t cry or get angry anymore.

He just hugged the teddy bear tightly.

* * *

Brigitte hugged the teddy bear for a while and said nothing.

Then, after a few minutes, he lifted his swollen face and spoke softly.

“… Am I too old to play with dolls?”

“no.”

I took Brigitte’s hand.

“I’m going to steal you now.”

When I left the secret base and came out of the prison, I saw a woman wearing glasses growling.

“I can’t go! Brigitte, this is your house! Where to go! look what you did! Everything is broken and smashed! Even if we don’t, how much debt our family owes!”

Write, wasn’t the agreement with Friede already over?

Should I step in—as I thought, Brigitte grabbed me by the shoulder and stepped forward.

“Gudrid, I’ve hated you since the old days. Destruction!”

It was a quick brig.

The round destruction ball ejected from Brigitte’s hand flew towards Gudrid.

However, as Brigitte’s older sister, Gudrid was also difficult.

“wall. defense!”

Two quick chants.

A thin wall soon formed to protect Gudrid’s body.

“They say it’s a black wizard, but it’s nothing! I, too, can get to the gold level. This is it! Have you heard of Seeker Gudrid?”

Gudrid smirked.

However, the simple barrier created by Gudrid could not withstand Brigitte’s destructive power and shattered.

“What? How can a two-word spell be squeezed into one word… !? Oh no… !”

Gudrid protected his boat with both hands.

Thanks to that, the magic escaped the stomach and entered the chest properly.

“Guaak… !”

In the end, Gudrid let out an unsightly scream and collapsed.

When Gudrid was about to pick up his wand, Brigitte stepped on Gudrid’s wrist as he tried to pick up his wand and pointed his finger at her stomach.

“Destruction—.”

“Now, wait… ! I have a child in my tummy… . Born soon… . It’s a daughter. If you’re going to kill me, save me, my daughter… .”

“… … .”

Brigitte’s eyes turned into strange lights in many ways.

The tip of the finger that was aiming at her sister also trembled with a subtle feeling.

Just then, something popped out with a par-bat.

“Oh, Mom!”

It was a little kid.

Platinum blonde hair tied in two pigtails.

Princess power was quite high.

A – degree.

Wouldn’t this be enough to have a good fight with Tywin?

Such a girl hugged Gudrid and cried out loud.

“… Ooh, don’t bother my mom! uuu!”

“Morrigan! run away! hurry! Hey, it’s dangerous here… !”

I couldn’t understand what was going on behind the scenes.

He was trembling and so full of fear and sorrow that he was probably unable to speak normally.

But even I could feel that the girl loved her mother very much.

Brigitte, who couldn’t become a villain no matter what, must have felt that too.

“that’s interesting. It seems that the mean older sister was as pretty as her child.”

“… All, of course not. Because he is my child… .”

“Then what was I? Wasn’t I a family member of this house? Even now, where is my mother?”

Brigitte looked around and shouted loudly.

“I’ve felt it for a long time. this is not my home It has never been my home. As of today, my relationship with you is over.”

—–.

Brigitte muttered something.

It was like a high-speed chant that I figured out, probably more than 7 words put together.

Woo woo woo-.

Finally, something fell from the sky.

Kwaaang-!

It was the sound of a meteorite falling and smashing everything.

Shuk-.

Then Friede appeared.

I was also nervous for a moment, but Friede just stared at the collapsing roof and said nothing.

Brigitte said to such a Friede.

“When I think about it now, Friede didn’t bother me. I just watched it like I do now. I was just watching. She said she sent me to Graham Academy.”

“… i feel sorry for you But I was only 15 at the time… .”

“At that time, I wasn’t even ten years old.”

“… I really wanted to get along with you this time.”

Friede moved his fingers to draw a circle in the air, and soon a round oval shape appeared in front of us.

It was a dimensional door.

I knew instinctively where the portal was leading.

it will be my house

everyone will be waiting

* * *

Woo woo-.

After exiting the portal, I saw a garden.

It was the garden of my “Miscellaneous Mansion,” where a woman wearing a parasol once visited.

A neatly manicured garden.

Just me and Brigitte under the moonlight brighter than I thought.

We’ve been through a lot just now, but we didn’t need to talk to each other anymore.

Sometimes it is necessary for silence to fill a person’s heart.

When you’ve been silent for so long

Brigitte looked at the drained pond and spoke softly.

“… I mean. In fact, I might be Naru’s mother. I was thinking so.”
