Became the Son-in-Law of the Traitorous Family

6. The gate didn’t open in the first month of marriage – 02

The next day, hearing the news that the Grand Duchess had called me, I rushed to her office.

“Why is that woman trembling with power while holding on to a busy person?”

Even if the Grand Duchess doesn’t call me, I’m literally overflowing with things to do.

Even if you have ten bodies, such as getting training in swordsmanship from a thunder emperor, digging up evidence of what the grand duchess is hiding behind her back, or preparing to create an organization made up of Sei’s family. Even though I live a life that is lacking, I can’t believe I’m urging me to come back to the office.

If she had been Korean, such a woman would have appeared in her wheelchair on the photo line of the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office long ago.

“Don’t be too hard on yourself. The madam must have called the young master for some reason. Isn’t it?”

She didn’t think that Cirilla would calm down even though Cirilla patted me with her pats. In fact, since there was no Grand Duchess in front of her, she was in the middle of activating my passive skill, [Strength, Weakness and Weakness].

“No, so if you’re going to call someone, tell them why, or what kind of a grand duke’s dog am I? If Ji tells me to come, I have to run, and if I tell him to leave because I don’t need it, I go back home.”

“Uh… To be honest, from her point of view, the young master is like a puppy.”

“… Well, I guess it’s not a word that’s a bit subtle. Cirilla.”

If someone who doesn’t know anything listens to me, even if they misunderstand me by saying that I’m like an asshole, it couldn’t be the kind of word choice that has nothing to say.

“No, I didn’t mean it as an insult, I was literally saying that the young master is like a puppy raised by the mistress. I’m talking about this, but the young master has nothing to do with the grand duke’s family. Isn’t it?”

“…..”

“As far as I know, the madam comes to the office early in the morning and takes care of all kinds of paperwork. Living the life of a very exemplary pillar, such as training, yawning and taking a little walk around the backyard of the mansion… “

Boom!

“Ouch!”

‘I would have looked a little cute if I had screamed ‘Etkyung.’

As I inserted Meteor into Cirilla’s crown, I thought to myself.

“Our Cirilla’s attitude toward the young master, whom he has to serve like heaven, has recently become very arrogant. If you keep coming out with such a mean attitude, this young boy will be very sad.”

Originally, it was difficult to say that Cirilla was a good lady-in-waiting, even with empty words, but after she learned magic under Sei, it could be said that her concentration has grown considerably.

Well, actually, I’m not a real Reiner, and Cirilla couldn’t really be my handmaid, so I didn’t want to hang myself in a master-servant relationship that much, but if I accepted it, in technical terms, I’d be ‘eaten’ by Cirilla. Wouldn’t there be a risk

‘A reactionary molecule that has the potential to cause a coup should be pruned in advance.’

Even if you just look at the history books, didn’t all the traitors who rebelled against the existing government end up having their heads cut off and their families smashed into pieces like the grand duchesses of the future?

In that sense, it was a very merciful and lenient treatment to be able to forgive everything with just one blow from the sky on the top of the head.

“Oh, really! Why do you keep hitting me, why! Just say it, say it!”

“But you can’t understand just by talking.”

Cirilla, who hadn’t come to his senses even though he had already been hit with a honey chestnut, started barking at me.

‘Then what about the “Second”? Cirilla?’

Originally, Meteor had to hit two shots in a row to maximize the effect. The ninja allied forces also easily blocked the first Earthquake, but were not able to stop the second Earthquake and were annihilated.

Just as I was measuring the timing to put my fist into Cirilla’s head once more, I heard a chuckle from behind me.

“It’s a really good relationship with no faults. But if you cling to me like that, do you get a little jealous as a wife?”

“… Karin?”

When I hurriedly turned around, there was the image of the Grand Duchess who had sent me a message saying that she would be waiting for me in her office.

What, by the way, how long have you been there? Apparently, there was no popularity around me, right?

“… Why are you here? He said he would be waiting for me at his office and sent me a call.”

“Actually, the work ended a little early. What’s the point of sitting still and waiting for Reiner? I was interested in what kind of conversation Reiner and Cirilla were having.”

“Then, since when did you hear the conversation between Cirilla and me…? ?”

“Actually, I haven’t heard that much.”

The Grand Duchess continues to speak in a non-trivial manner as if it is not a secret story.

“Roughly from the time you grumbled that you thought of me as a dog that would run to you when you came and go home again when you told me to go back?”

“…..”

You mean you just listened to it from beginning to end.

“What… I’m fine. Between a couple, that much can be said. As Reiner said, you are not my family dog, are you? I wanted a companion to move forward with me on equal terms, not a loyal dog.”

She said that and judging by the way she shrugged her own shoulders, she seemed really unconcerned, but she couldn’t be caught off guard by that.

I may pretend to be cool on the outside, but it was something that I would keep in my heart for today’s events, and at the decisive moment, I might stab myself in the back of the head.

“Since things turned out this way, should we just take care of the business here? It seems like it would be quite troublesome to meet again in my office 30 minutes later and see each other face to face.”

“… Well, it’s simple and nice.”

As I answered, I glanced at Cirilla, who was standing beside me.

It was my own signal that meant that an event comparable to the inter-Korean summit would soon be held at this place, so please take care of yourself.

“… Uh? Why are you looking at me that way? Do you have anything to say to me?”

“…..”

In movies and dramas, talented secretaries get out of their seats or bow their heads in moderation when they receive such attention from their owners, but why is my exclusive lady-in-waiting so careless?

Meanwhile, the Grand Duchess, who was watching Cirilla and me, smiled and waved her hand.

“It’s okay. There’s no need to bother making Cirilla come and go. It’s not like I’m going to tell you such a secret story anyway.”

After saying that, the Grand Duchess blurted out a letter to me.

“What is this?”

“It’s a book. It was sent to us from the Empire.”

Since she said it was a letter from the Empire, there was one fact that passed through her mind.

“Come to think of it, didn’t the Empire say they would send an envoy to congratulate us on our marriage?”

If my memory is correct, hasn’t it been almost a month since the Grand Duchess said that to me?

“But what is the delay in arrival? There is a warp gate installed between the capital of the empire and the Grand Duchy, so if you ride it, you should be able to get there in no time.”

I know it well because I rode that warp gate when I went to scout Sei, but if you use it, it will take less than 10 minutes to reach the Grand Duchy from the middle of the archipelago.

As long as those so-called envoys aren’t touring restaurants all over the country and filming vlogs to upload to YouTube, it should have been normal if they had already arrived in the Grand Duke a long time ago, right?

“Riner is right. Well, to be precise, over there, they don’t deliberately ride warp gates. To put it a little bluntly, I would say that the other side is fighting a battle of nerves with us.”

“Fight?”

“Nominally, the Grand Duchy is a sort of vassal state belonging to the Empire. And the envoys are those who are far below me in terms of title, but instead, there is a symbolism that they represent the authority of the emperor.”

“Then, why is the delegation going to the Grand Duchy without using the Warp Gate? “

“If you are a vassal of the empire, prepare your way in front of the emperor’s envoy like a vassal. It must be sending an implicit message like this. After all, they are people who have no place to be childish.”

Looking at the Grand Duchess complaining as if she didn’t like something, it was only then that I was able to get a rough idea of what was going on.

‘It can be seen as similar to the situation when Guan Yu, who was cowardly like a girl, believed only in Liu Bei’s back and gave a damn to Sun Quan.’

Actually, looking at it objectively, the situation in which the envoys were doing sh*t like public officials was not a bad situation for me.

The most scarce resource for me right now is none other than time, and the more our delegation friends went round and round while neglecting their duties, the more time I could earn.

“I don’t know if Reiner knows, but the representative of the delegation is the Marquis of Ilibatus. He is quite famous in the Empire, have you ever heard of him?”

“… Marquis of Ilibatus?”

Marquis of Illivatus, Marquis of Illivatus…. It’s a name I’ve heard a lot, but where did I hear that name… Judging by the name that feels so familiar, it seems clear that it is an NPC who has a thread in the story…

“Oh, that facial deformity?”

“Poop!”

As soon as I overcome the amnesia caused by dementia and succeed in recalling the appearance of Marquis Illivatus, who resembles Kakashi’s old friend, a strange sound like a balloon exploding escapes from the Grand Duchess’s mouth.

“… It’s okay.”

At that moment, her grand duchess’s face turned bright red, as if she realized her mistake.

“Kuhm. I’m sorry for showing you something I can’t see. And Reiner, it’s not okay to make comments that seem to disparage other people’s physical characteristics.”

“Wasn’t Karin also burst out laughing just a while ago.”

When I pointed out Nambul as her Grand Duchess’s name with a look of bewilderment, she started flapping her hands like birds.

“That’s because I personally don’t like him that much… Ah, Reiner can’t do that anyway! That’s bad!”

“… Well, let’s keep that in mind.”

I guarantee you that if you use that word again, the Grand Duchess will lose her navel again. Originally, on the outside, the more the person who sucks the pad lip, the more likely she is to love the pad lip than anyone else through her back hole.

‘Next time I’ll have to take a quiz to see what happens when Iron Man goes to the left.’

If the answer to the quiz is ‘StarCraft’, I think there is a high possibility that the Grand Duchess will become annoyed. If the reaction is good, I’m thinking of making a quiz called ‘What if Iron Man walks left?’ As a follow-up.

“By the way, I know very well that Marquis Illivatus, the representative of the delegation, is a very strict and sharp-eyed person. And… He is also a person who personally does not like me very much.”

Of course, I hate that person as much as I do, so I’m sorry, but the Grand Duchess added a little bit.

“Even though it’s formal, he is definitely the emperor’s agent who comes to the Archduke with the royal family’s decrees. If he ever finds out that the two of us are, in fact, in a consensual marriage relationship, I can’t be sure what will happen.”

“… So what? What do you want to say to me?”

I couldn’t bear to hear her gossip and couldn’t see her grand duchess wiggling her own fingers, so in the end I urged her on.

“Uh… That’s not really a big deal… Eh, so what should I explain… “

The Grand Duchess, who was looking at me with a tear-stained expression for some reason, sighed softly as if she had given up on something.

“It’s a bit new, but would you be able to become a real couple with me from now on?”

“… Yes?”

“So, Reiner, do you have any intention of seriously making love with me from today?”

The great princess who asked me that question, her face dyed red, was surprisingly looking a little cute in my eyes.
