Taming The Villainesses chapter 271

(EP.271)# 3

271 – Reconciliation #3

Reinhardt asked me.

If there are no titles given to me by the queen, what is left of me? There is only one answer to that.

“truth.”

“Is it true? To put that in your mouth without shame. It’s a funny story.”

“… … .”

I’m pretty quick-witted.

If I hadn’t noticed, I’d have been lost somewhere in the first place. It would be better to express that the senses are sensitive.

From what I can see, the series of processes were all clear Reinhardt’s plan and conception.

He freed people to hold me and put a cotton swab in my nose as an excuse for the weird flu.

It was, as I expected, a message of sorts.

You could call it a challenge or a warning to me.

‘I know your identity. And you can catch me and kill me.’

Apparently, it was clear that Reinhardt had revealed my identity to Elgar for some sort of process and reason.

Perhaps information was leaked during the inspection of that red magic. Elgar is a very sneaky person, so to be honest, it’s not strange where she found out.

「Calmly judge the situation!

You gain experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.

All job experience + 5”

A calm accident occurred after a long time.

And it was also an indicator to confirm that my thinking was correct. It would make such a big snowball for Elgar to discover his identity.

My negligence, which had been underestimating Elgar’s positive attitude and suspicion.

silkygoat was the goat. cry

No one to blame

Then Reinhardt said.

“There are many things to say. But we don’t like to talk long with each other, so let’s keep it short. Let me back out.”

“What do you mean back off?”

“Put everything down and go to the quiet western land. I’ll hand over one of the estates I’m in charge of, so I can live a normal life there.”

“… … .”

His story was quite poignant. Reinhardt’s demeanor was very kind and paternalistic, not fitting the word for the iron-blooded prime minister.

That’s why even after they figured out who I was, they started a strange capture riot. If you were going to kill me, you could have done it secretly.

Of course, there might be something like that, since Queen Aira’s wrath is inevitable. Reinhardt seemed to want to at least show me some mercy.

“There will be no problems with eating and living. By doing so, you can lead a prosperous life as much as you want. It will be good for you as well.”

“You are quite assertive.”

“Have a child in a fertile and prosperous land, plow a field with your own sweat, and close your eyes to blessings among your children. It suits the half-elf.”

His explanation flashed in my mind a picture of me leading a peaceful life. In the scorching sun, me in straw hats and the little children waving at me.

When I return home, a cold drink is prepared, and my wives, who seem to have no worries or anxieties, greet me… .

It must already be a life that is enjoyable in itself and has a completeness. It can be seen that it is close to the end of a happy life that I long for.

But from the depths of my heart, I was pushing it away. I like the ending though. The process is not to my liking.

“Do you think I will do that?”

“It would be nice to do that. I heard your plan from your daughter. Your family is united in the same way as a child would imagine.”

Did you hear my plans from Elgar? For a moment, it felt like I had found a diary full of my own thoughts, so I felt somewhat ashamed.

But the next man’s words harden my heart.

“Don’t you know better that the world doesn’t turn so peacefully? Angmar’s revenge is not like that. More bloody, more brutal.”

Bloody and cruel… .

Something came to mind, but I shook my head.

“Isn’t it okay if I don’t do that?”

“Your opinion is not important. Because the world doesn’t run as peacefully as a child’s imagination. In the face of a great wave of fate, individual will is like a leaf in the wave.”

Druck.

Reinhardt, who firmly denied my words, got up from his chair. Soon he turned his back from me and looked up at the rising moon outside the window and said.

“After the death of the Demon King, the Opal Belhawk began to pursue eternal life. Draco even ruined her daughter’s life by studying how to become an immortal lich and the forbidden half-marriage.”

“… … .”

“My father and my Lioness increased their armaments and increased the number of their troops. And finally, the witches of Tarantera… .”

He was about to say something, but then he closed his lips tightly. As he rolls his head to understand what he’s talking about.

he himself explained.

“The Demon King is alive.”

At that I laughed from the depths of my stomach.

“… Prince Reinhardt, do you also believe in opal bullshit? I never thought I would be such a sentimental person.”

“It’s not bullshit. The Demon King is alive. That’s why we fear his revenge. There was a reason why he was growing his strength by spreading his arms around all kinds of forbidden things.”

“Vengeance… .”

“So, I will ask you one more time. It’s okay to say I’m begging you Stop picking beehives anymore. The end of the road is only ruin.”

Reinhardt’s voice contained his own sincerity. He is really asking me. May I quit everything and just live a peaceful life.

But.

I couldn’t stop coming now.

“Dr Reinhardt, I really appreciate the suggestion. I want to know the meaning of my life.”

If there is an effect, there is a cause.

I’ve always wanted to know why I’m going through these things.

Should I say that I have a strange feeling that it is by no means a coincidence that I am here?

You can blame it for being immature like a child’s imagination.

However, this is the concept and the source itself that have made me move and endure. It seems that the end is starting to show now, but it can’t be stopped here.

So I said to Reinhardt.

“When I get to the end of this road, I feel like I can understand what it means. One answer to a lot of questions.”

“The meaning of life… .”

Reinhardt suddenly began to burst into laughter. It doesn’t seem like you’re laughing at my story. It was a reaction to hearing a story that seemed to be interesting and nostalgic.

“One day, I said the same thing to someone as I do now. But in the end he didn’t listen to me. I was just giving the same answer as now.”

He finally turned his back and grabbed the sword scabbard on the desk.

“I don’t know if it’s Aleister. After all, it is not for me to persuade like this. A lion has a lion’s way.”

Surung-.

The sound of blades being pulled out was heard.

With goosebumps up to the tip of my head, I quickly opened my palms to create a mana shield.

─Mana Shield!

woo woo woo-.

Ten petals starting to shine in front of my body. Ten mana shields would be strong enough to prevent a truck crash.

But the sharp tip of the sword that extended towards it tore apart all my petals.

Awesome liquid-! Paching-! Clink!

“Ugh-!”

My body bounced off the recoil.

The thick door collided with my body and I heard a crackling sound. When I woke up, I was lying on the court hallway.

“Ugh, what… .”

But what was disconcerting was Reinhardt’s attitude. To draw a sword from the court and attack me.

“Reinhardt, are you crazy!?”

I wondered if the cold-hearted Reinhardt had turned around. If you draw a sword from the court and attack me, it will become a situation that will never be possible.

Crossing a river of no return.

However, the man’s attitude seemed extremely cold.

“I will admit that I cannot convince you with my words. Then you must convince me, young wizard.”

* * *

As I bowed my back, I could feel the sharp blades brushing over my head vividly.

Kaga-Gak-!

At the same time, the pillar located behind my back is pierced by the tip of the sword and collapses. To tear a marble pillar as thick as a human body to pieces like tofu.

Is this a real human… !?

“Now, what are you doing? If you just run away like this, you will eventually die. Didn’t you say you want to find the meaning of life? Only then is it the death of a dog.”

Crushed liquid, Crushed eh-!

Continuous firing.

The man relaxed and swung the blade, but I had to avoid it and focus on generating mana shield. There is not enough time to chant other spells.

Also, my attack magic is usually full of powerful and intense ones. If you chant such things in this palace, it will fly away and cause a lot of damage.

ㅡAck! what, what! Reinhardt!? Why the sword in the hallway?! It’s dangerous… !

-What’s going on right now? Why are you two… !?

The interior of the court, where many people came and went, was a battlefield that was too unfavorable for me.

“Reinhardt, are you really like this!?”

“Why don’t you chant one more order while you are grumbling? Or do you have no desire to deal with an old man who has long since retired from active duty?”

Reinhardt’s blade, saying so, cut the marble column horizontally once again. As I watched the palace ceiling sway, I had no choice but to bite my teeth.

I really have no choice but to fight.

If you fight, do you win?

Seriously speaking, Reinhardt’s skills were at a level that could never be overlooked. Although he was an old man who had resigned himself from active duty, he was self-reliant. His condition is unparalleled.

“Are you going to run away to the queen again? No, I can’t. I am afraid of what will come out of my mouth this time.”

“Big… .”

“But if it stays like this, it will surely enter the Queen’s ears. When that happens, why are you going to make excuses again?”

Also, he was more demanding than the Opal Belhawk in that he had fewer physical variables and was well aware of my weaknesses.

“I still admit it. You’re good at running away like a mouse.”

“Who can’t catch a single mouse!?”

Even though I was told that I was like a rat, I couldn’t slow down my run away. For once, I thought it was important to take him to a place where I could deal with him.

If possible, a sandy location is preferred.

So I was able to safely escape the palace building and arrive at the large open space behind it. While I was picking my breath and preparing for the chants, Reinhardt rushed in.

“Did you choose a spacious place? Wizards are-.”

Pavat.

His appearance, which kicks the ground and rushes like an awl, is more like a shot arrow or a beast attacking rather than a human being.

─Mana Shield!

Paching, clink!

Thanks to that speed and heavy destructive power, I had to sing only Mana Shield. Even if he wants to use another magic, he doesn’t have time.

An onslaught that seldom gives a chance to counterattack.

As I was short of breath due to the continuous escape, I was in a hurry just to grasp the situation.

I’m so used to fighting this man, a wizard.

It doesn’t seem like he’s aged with foam either. His attack with natural talent, years of experience, and experience melted away without any fuss.

Right-!

After I managed to make a hole, I flicked my fingers to create a breeze. A strong gust of wind blew up to the floor, but Reinhardt only struck it lightly with his sword.

“My beloved sword ‘Fang’ is the best sword made from fairy ore. Any kind of magic can deflect it and break it.”

damn it. bourgeoisie.

A man who is like a tank in all workshops.

It is certain that a powerful magic trick is needed to defeat him. The sixth-level anti-magic that is like lightning candy—.

However, when I pick my breath to start the chanting of the Great Magic, Reinhardt’s sword blade is aimed at my neck, taking advantage of the gap I didn’t know how to breathe.

Shasak-!

“Ugh!”

“Did you avoid it? That’s great. Is it because of the agility of the half-elf? But my whole body is full of slept wounds.”

As Reinhardt said. My body was full of sharp cuts. If you keep getting hurt like this, you might lose your mind from excessive bleeding.

I also have no choice but to try

“Reinhardt, I have something to tell you.”

“Are you trying to make fun of the big tongue? It doesn’t work.”

Awesome liquid-!

A blade that flies towards the nape of my neck.

I bowed my head to avoid it, and I shouted quickly but clearly.

“If you kill me like this, your daughter, Miss Erganes, will become a widow. Are you going to make him grow up without a father?”

flinch.

A small crease appears between Reinhardt’s two eyebrows.
