127 – Scene 127# Room of Truth
*
“… You want to have me?”
The voice that came out of the woman’s lips was very sweet. However, apart from that, the expression was shaded.
If Charlie had a keen eye, he might have realized that it was deep anger.
However, because of his sexual desire, in his eyes, he was just seen as embarrassed.
“Women like that are rare. Oh, of course you brought it, so if you write it first and then give it to me… .”
“Do that. buggy.”
“Yes?”
The man set the glass down on the table.
“My ears are dying from listening.”
“… ?!”
Charlie tried to open his mouth, but no voice came out.
“A piece of trash who doesn’t even know what I’m talking about… .”
The man murmured in a cold voice.
I only heard his voice, but Charlie couldn’t breathe. An unknown force was oppressing his lungs.
“Do you know who came here to hear your nasty thoughts?”
The man watched in disgust as Charlie grew paler.
At that moment, what Charlie felt was fear. The fear of being trampled on at once by massive violence.
“Su, breath… .”
Charlie, who became the heart of a cockroach facing a human, tried to escape for his life. But it didn’t work out as intended.
He couldn’t even move a finger, as if under a spell.
Charlie broke out in a cold sweat.
Belated regrets flooded in.
Maybe it was because his judgment was clouded by the alcohol and the boiling sexual desire.
Charlie seemed to lose consciousness as he gradually ran out of oxygen.
However, the man opened his mouth as if he would not allow that.
“Charlie.”
At that moment, the man’s anger disappeared as if a switch had been turned off.
At the same time, Charlie’s breath, which was about to choke in anger, was also opened.
“Cheer up… ?!”
“You have a lot of money on bugs.”
“Coke… . Yes, yes?”
What the man pointed to was Charlie’s breathless arms, to be exact, a bunch of money protruding there.
“If I’m not mistaken, the salary of a serf manager seems like an amount I wouldn’t even be able to see. Where did you get it from?”
“Oh, don’t get me wrong! This is not stolen money!”
Feeling interrogated, Charlie reflexively denied it.
“This is the money I earned right!”
“Fairly?”
“Yes. Of course, all of this is the money I earned through sweat and blood.”
Let’s not be discouraged.
Charlie swallowed.
I was honestly underestimating.
I thought he was an aristocratic boy who had nothing to do with going to and from the country gambling hall. However, judging from the attitude he showed earlier, there is only one possibility left.
Charlie mustered up the courage to speak.
“By the way, why are you asking about this? I don’t know what you are doing, but if you keep asking me about this… . The Ruelberta family will not let you go.”
It was a last resort.
The moment she heard the name Ruelberta, the woman hesitated.
“I’m sure you’ve heard of it too. This is the estate of the famous Ruelberta family. And I am the one who serves the Ruelberta family.”
“… … .”
“Do you think you’re going to reveal anything about the town to an outsider you’ve never seen before?”
Charlie emphasized the name Ruelberta again.
Make sure to read from noble mtl com
Didn’t the woman who brought him also understand the name and respond?
Even in the Empire, when they heard the name of the notorious Ruelberta family, most people had no choice but to curl up and back down.
It would be the same whether it was a nobleman or a foreign spy.
The Ruelbert family’s notoriety spread not only to the Empire, but also to other countries.
“what?”
“Charlie. what’s the matter?”
People who felt that the atmosphere was unusual were whispering.
The situation has completely changed.
If this happens, the trouble will be on the man’s side. He must have been reluctant to expose his identity in front of many people.
Charlie fully determined the man to be a foreign spy.
But that was a big mistake.
“It’s definitely a late introduction.”
The man opened his mouth in silence and pulled out something shiny from his bosom.
It was a ring, not a diamond.
“… … uh?”
Charlie’s eyes twitched.
Because the pattern engraved on the ring was very familiar.
No matter how old-fashioned he was, he could recognize the pattern.
“Gee, black… Lion?”
It was the symbol of the Ruelberta family that Charlie had been talking about a while ago.
And that ring is a sign that only the ‘head’ of the Ruelberta family has, and an identification card that only a very small number of privileged members of the nobility have.
“Then I don’t think Count Tristan… ?”
“yes.”
Tristan smiled coldly.
“Coincidentally, it must have been mine.”
“I really, my lord… ? Oh no. Rumor has it that the head of the house has gained weight… .”
“I took it off.”
Tristan responds immediately.
The beautiful woman next to her got up and spoke to the people who didn’t understand what was going on.
“But you guys. Why are you holding your head higher than the Count?”
“ah… . no!”
At that word, the people at the casino all bowed their heads.
“Uh, uh huh? Now wait… .”
Embarrassed, only Charlie stood there. No, even if I tried to kneel, I couldn’t.
Because my legs were shaking.
However, Charlie was in denial.
“Oh, no… . Anyway, it makes no sense. Why is such a high person in a place like this… .”
“Don’t even know. A bug like you would never have seen my face in person.”
It was a straight line.
Charlie, the caretaker of the peasant peasants in the countryside, was not even given a chance to see the head of Ruelberta.
I only knew about it through rumors. The head of the Ruelberta family is an aristocrat who is overweight and has a dirty look.
Charlie looked back at Tristan’s face. It looked very different from rumors, but I could tell at a glance.
An arrogant and conceited face. And the cold and sharp atmosphere felt from him.
yes. It’s unbelievable, but it’s a reality.
He is the real Tristan.
Charlie asked in a trembling voice.
“that that… . Then that woman… ?”
“Oh, me?”
The odd-eyed woman introduced herself with a quiet smile.
“I’m Count Tristan’s escort knight and Aslan’s vice-captain, Helga Wolfbert.”
“Ahh… .”
Eventually, Charlie realized.
That I had touched a man I should never have touched.
It’s over.
Charlie’s instincts reacted first.
“Damn it… !”
Charlie kicked off his seat.
If he climbs over the railing on the second floor and escapes, maybe!
That was the moment.
“Ah, aaagh?!”
Charlie screamed and fell over.
Because the pain in my feet was like a fire.
“What, what what?!”
Helga’s high heels had pierced his instep.
Charlie, whose feet were pinned to the floor as if nailed to the ground, struggled in pain.
“what? What were you going to do?”
Helga looked down at Charlie naturally.
That smile was beautiful.
Like a venomous snake.
“Ugh, ugh… . backcountry… . Do not come… . don’t come… !”
“That is a strange word. I am still.”
I tried to step back, but Charlie, whose instep was pierced through the floor, struggled in place.
In such a hopeless situation, a low voice came to Charlie’s ears.
“There are many things I want to ask you.”
It was Tristan.
Charlie exclaimed desperately.
“No, I will tell you! Anything! I will answer anything, so please help me!”
“Where did that money come from?”
“Yes, yes?”
For a moment, Charlie hesitated.
It was easy to tell the truth.
However, how can I tell the fact that the money was stolen from the letters sent to the villagers?
“That, that… .”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t answer.”
Tristan shook his head.
“I do not believe a man who has lied once. Whatever you say now, it must be a lie to avoid a crisis.”
“Oh no! Believe me! Yes, I’ll tell you the truth… ! I stole it! I stole it from the villagers!”
Charlie begged the beautiful scion.
But he muttered, ignoring Charlie.
“yes. Did you say it was money earned with blood and sweat?”
“Yes… ?”
“If you, too, shed blood and sweat, you will have the heart to confess. Hello.”
“Yes.”
Tristan instructed the beautiful escort knight.
“Take this person to Aslan headquarters.”
“… !”
I’ve heard of Charlie.
It is a place where those who cause serious problems in the Ruelberta Territory are taken away, and a notorious place to which no one has returned.
Charlie shouted, because being dragged there was tantamount to death.
“Please! Please save me! Help me!”
“He is a noisy man. whooping… .”
Helga’s Odd Eye contained a disfigured Charlie.
Her high-heeled feet pressed against his back.
“Ah, ah… .”
“Shut up and quietly follow me.”
Helga’s coquettish lips curled.
“To the room of truth.”
It was an eerie smile.
