The Villain Who Robbed the Heroines chapter 39

‘Obviously, I must have grunted because my back hurts.’

When she opened her eyes, Euphemia was still curled up like a shrimp.

Perhaps this is a sleeping habit that was developed in the process of suffering from Luerg’s cold, which he had to get used to.

Shrek.

He gently placed his hand on Euphemia’s lower abdomen and gently stroked it.

Then, naturally, she straightened herself up and brought her hands together near her chest.

The trigger that I tamed is clearly engraved on her, so I can induce her to straighten her body in this way without bothering to put any effort into it.

“Yes… … ”

At that moment, the moonlight that had been obscured by the clouds seeped through the window.

“… … ”

Beyond the hollow white negligee, countless red kiss marks engraved on the fair skin.

The moment I caught the sight, I couldn’t help but stop the corners of my mouth from curling up in the overflowing sense of satisfaction.

Comparing it to a favorite item, it must be something full of hand stains.

creak.

After swiping down Euphemia’s hair once, I went out to the balcony with the lamp that was illuminating the room.

Then, he lit a lit candle and looked up at the sky where a feeble bud was rising, and he blew away his sleep.

“after… … ”

「Special ability」

▶???

▶ Numericalization

Occasionally, when I had time, I tried to guess what the unmarked special ability was, but I still couldn’t figure it out.

‘For now… … ‘

With a high probability, the conclusion was that it had something to do with the underworld.

“… … ”

He bowed his head, and the ring on his left hand—patterned the altar, infused with magical energy to connect the other world with the underworld.

Then, a black door engraved with a strange pattern appeared in front of me.

Beyond this gate that was allowed as of now, the first and second floors of the underworld.

The first floor of the underworld had an intuitive name, like a rule-follower or an impersonator——No, it was even called a name.

It would be correct to call it a nickname.

Because the monsters living on the first floor of the underworld had no names.

So, when dealing with the first floor of the underworld, it is possible to induce them to make arrangements with the monster they want.

They are like Seungnyang, who are given names and live far away to ascend to the second floor of the underworld.

squeaky.

The scenery of the underworld, where darkness lurks, is illuminated for a moment, and the nameplate located at the top begins to change into various shapes every moment.

This is proof that they are randomly searching for monsters that inhabit the second floor of the underworld to respond to their connected magic.

So I only looked there, disconnected the magical power, and forcibly closed the door.

Ferzen had never made a deal with the monsters living on the 2nd floor of the underworld, so there were some unmarked special abilities… …

‘I thought it might be some kind of pointing right, but it wasn’t.’

Once a transaction is arranged, it is forbidden to look at the liver, as you have to choose between borrowing the monster’s ability in a halved state or descending directly.

‘How can you hide it so tightly? … ‘

If it is the positive side, it would be disproving that the potential of the main character is that great, so there is an implicit wish that it would be better if it was the negative side, but the possibility of that would be remarkably low.

Ferzen is the villain who robbed the main heroine, so it is undoubtedly a work place that can give the main character more crisis.

‘… … ‘

Could it be that Ciel Midford was “dead?” Hearing a line like that doesn’t mean it can be activated.

Even if it’s real, it’s a fictional world.

A cliché could be the trigger… …

not.

I wanted to go out too much, so after I finished smoking, I glanced at the bright morning and went inside.

Yesterday, when I asked the students when the body to be distributed would come, they said it would arrive around lunchtime today, so I had to go to work for inspection.

* * * * *

“… … ”

Sit facing each other in your own room, looking in the mirror.

Elisabeth, being groomed by the maids, slowly turned through the papers with the plans for the first half of this year’s academy.

‘It’s too quiet.’

nothing takes

Of course, the power of fortune-telling, which was given to him by the god who governs wisdom, is arbitrarily activated, but… …

Even so, it didn’t look like all of the Academy’s first half plans were going to go smoothly.

There must be aristocrats who are trying to contain the imperial power from becoming more powerful, especially the Elmark Empire.

“Uh… … ”

There was no better way to lower the imperial authority than the current academy.

Holding the children of each noble family hostage means that you have to take that risk in case something goes wrong.

However, the fact that there is only one place to be stabbed is proof that, on the contrary, it is easy to keep it.

“My Majesty the Princess, it’s over. You are so beautiful today.”

“Every time I hear it, it’s the mouth-watering words that I hear, and it doesn’t make any sense at all.”

Soon another maid, bringing her own jewelry box, opened it and pushed it forward.

“It has been Dispose of all the jewelry in this jewelry box, or take whatever you want.”

“yes?”

The maids who had been taking care of Elizabeth for a long time, but they could not adapt to the sudden change and blinked their eyes.

“Don’t go wearing anything today. and… … If jewelry made by this craftsman is presented in the future, please do not accept it.”

“Then, until you return, I will dispose of everything.”

“… … ”

At those words, Elizabeth furrowed her eyebrows inwardly.

In that jewel box, there are quite a lot of ornaments.

Are you really saying that there is nothing you want to have?

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Most of the maids of the imperial family, not maids, are women of noble families.

Because of that, they probably don’t know the value of the jewels used in the ornaments.

“So, do it… … ”

However, with the words spoken, Elizabeth moved on without showing anything on the outside.

Following today, the sound of Fersen’s unstoppable heart that I heard last week vividly comes to mind.

* * * * *

“Good job.”

“no!”

“A chart?”

“Here it is.”

I took over the chart while looking at the coffins with 14 bodies transferred to the basement of Education Building A.

The 14 corpses are all of men and women who served as mercenaries.

The midterm exam is to control these corpses autonomously and subdue the monsters that inhabit the Kelium Forest not far from the capital.

And the chart he was holding contained details except for brief information to give to students.

“They said that they brought in after the identification of Sidog.”

“yes!”

Poisoning is like lead poisoning.

Without being immediately visible, it slowly devours the body of a warlock who touches the corpse, eventually leading to death.

In fact, in the past, there were many precedents for warlocks who died in this way, to be more precise, were assassinated.

Of course, since the identification was completed under the leadership of the imperial family, there is a very small chance that he really has a poison … …

“If you don’t know, buy Elanya and keep it.”

“Elanya, you mean?”

“okay.”

A poisonous animal or insect, otherwise a bizarre poisonous weed that attempts to reproduce by sending flower seeds to somewhere the toxin flows.

If you leave the tube open and put it in an airtight place, assuming that there is poisonous poison, the toxin will flow out little by little and stimulate Ellanya.

After all, distributing the bodies to the students is from next week or after the third week of lectures, so this will be a sure safety link.

“then… … ”

Each tube is opened one by one and a final inspection is performed based on the detailed information on the chart.

The first thing I had to do was to confirm who I was based on where I was born, where I lived in the past, my age and name, my job and my family, but it didn’t mean much.

Because human memory is not absolute, it was possible to cover it up with prior brainwashing.

For example, if the memory is distorted by making you believe that there are three mothers, the feedback that the realization rate increases even if there is one mother was the part of having three mothers.

Laundering the identity of a corpse is as simple as that, so the key is to get feedback on specific facts that only you know.

In fact, since it is a world where warlocks are not disrespected, the trade of corpses is also active as much as that. In the case of mercenaries, when they die while fulfilling a quest, they sell their bodies and hand over the money to family or acquaintances. There were many.

And when that happens, what you must write… …

These are facts that a working warlock can never infer.

Since these directly affect the implementation rate, of course, from the perspective of a warlock, he prefers to purchase corpses with a lot of content.

‘This guy… … ‘

The first coffin, the young man lying there, radiates magical energy, puts it under control, and focuses on the chart.

「There have been times when I was asked what urine tastes like. 」

“… … ”

Reading the chart, I frowned.

Common people do not know how to write, so most of the cases are written down by the receptionist of the Mercenary association.

Because of that, it’s kind of like a confession, like I stole my parents’ money when I was young… …

It starts with such nonsensical things, and only later on, it tends to pour out various facts.

‘I put an iron plate on my face properly once.’

Sitting face to face with the receptionist of the Mercenary association, the words he uttered from the beginning were so absurd.

「I started working as a mercenary, and one month after I started working as a mercenary, I was raped by a mercenary I was working with. After hearing that the mercenary had died and his body was buried in his hometown, he went down directly, dug a grave, pulled up the body, and mercilessly damaged it with a knife. 」

“… … ”

head gets dizzy

Since the bodies of newcomers, that is, D-class mercenaries, are not sold, it is possible to sign the corpse sales documents from C-class mercenaries who are skilled… …

During that time, he seemed to have gone through several ups and downs.

‘Suffice… … ‘

Since the feedback was accepted, I took control.

The fact that the causal relationship is so twisted would be difficult to brainwash them into believing, so they quietly move on to the next body.

“under… … ”

And when I finished examining the sixth body, I rubbed the frown on my forehead with my index finger.

‘just… … I’d rather do it myself.’

Psychometry, which allows you to glimpse the core memories of Ferzen’s life once, limited to the corpse.

I made up my mind to use this for inspection.

Anyway, the imperial black mage must have repeated the same process as he did, so he’s doing it again just in case… …

This method, at least, was too painful for me.

In the case of the fourth corpse, it is said that she had twin sisters above, and she slept with one of them and made her pregnant.

He probably died while working as a mercenary for his sister.

A child must have been born by now.

the problem is… …

It was extremely inconvenient that she did not conceive the one remaining twin sister.

There were many facts that could twist one’s mind just by reading like this, so I placed my hand over the head of the seventh body so as not to show Alphonse while he was waiting.

‘… … ?’

but it doesn’t trigger

No, it’s not that it doesn’t work, it’s exactly… …

The core experiences that have had the greatest impact on establishing a person’s personality, self, and identity have not been read.

‘what?’

Before using psychometry, did you get any successful feedback on basic personal information?

I tried again just in case, but it didn’t work.

Was there any difference between being and not being for each body?

In Ferzen’s memory, at least, there was no such case, so I touched the 8th corpse right next to it.

‘… … ‘

But this body was read.

From here on, I felt something uncomfortable, and as a result of touching all 14 bodies… … It was confirmed that psychometry did not activate on as many as five corpses.

“Alphonse.”

“yes!”

“Didn’t you hear anything else?”

“ah… … yes! I haven’t heard of it.”

I mean, who else could have noticed that it was weird?

If you radiate magical energy to grab the body and give it will, it becomes a ministry.

As stated in the chart, you receive real-time feedback that increases the implementation rate whenever you recognize that fact.

‘However… … ‘

Psychometry that only activates on corpses does not work.

‘this is… … ‘

what does it mean

… … A dead body, but not really dead.

Naturally, such a conclusion is reached.

It’s an absurd statement, full of contradictions.

‘actually… … I had a question from time to time.’

He fell into the water and drowned, in a state of cardiac arrest.

Can you minister to that person if the golden time, which can be brought back to life with a high probability, has not passed within 5 minutes?

I don’t know the answer.

There were no experiments or examples.

But here is the answer.

Five corpses that cannot be read by psychometry, the corpses clearly move under their control.

yes, so

It’s probably hard to believe.

These five bodies… …

Perhaps by some means, he is in a state of housework.

“under… … ”

Considering the level of civilization here, it is absolutely impossible.

“professor?”

But what remains after eliminating the impossible is the unmistakable truth, no matter how unbelievable.

Didn’t Sherlock Holmes say?

“Alphonse.”

“yes?”

“Let’s go out.”

“Professor… … ”

“Let’s go through a little more inspection.”

“All right.”

“And come to think of it, I don’t think there’s any need to buy Elanya.”

“Ah yes… … !”

Perhaps it was very uncomfortable being with me, Alphonse nodded vigorously and left the basement of the education center.

bang!

Then, with the sound of the door closing, I was alone.

No, I will not be alone.

Because there were five rats, dead but alive.
