Became the Son-in-Law of the Traitorous Family

10. April is the cruelest month – 07

Although it is a point that I have already emphasized until my mouth is dry and worn out, 「Erantia Saga」, Which can be said to be the original of this dog-like world, is a game that boasts an extremely difficult level.

Because the degree of freedom that allows the player to literally do anything and the high-intelligence NPCs in the game, which are reminiscent of real people, are intertwined to create a synergy that literally makes you go crazy.

All the characters in this dog-like game do not move with a dichotomous logic in which they are divided into good and evil like the main characters in cartoon movies.

Of course, even in this game, demons, a force that can be defined as ‘evil’ by anyone, exist.

However, just as I formed an alliance with Lumina after our mutual interests were aligned, even demons were not unconditionally hostile, and the same goes for humans who are in conflict with demons.

Even if you are a human being, there will always be bastards who are willing to sell their country and tribe for themselves like the Eulsa Five.

‘And the baby who can be said to be his leader is Count Bright.’

As far as I know, Earl Bright was a bastard with a very high possibility of becoming a cancerous mass of the entire human race beyond the level of a bastard who sold out the country.

Just like traitors who were ashamed of being Koreans during the Japanese colonial era and slaughtered Koreans more brutally than anyone else, that bastard was the one who would become the pawn of the demons and suck their ass hard.

‘At this point, I am not yet a demon, but a human… ‘

And befitting a game with a high degree of freedom, he did not unconditionally betray humans and turn to the side of the demons like Lee Wan-yong. Very occasionally, if it was helpful to one’s own interests, there were often cases of siding with mankind and opposing the demons.

However, his temperament is basically that of an opportunist who is sly and unmatched.

Humans, to be precise, when the confrontation between the main character’s party and the demons is in full swing, they look here and there and don’t take anyone’s side. I think you should understand it because you are a son of a b*tch.

And in my experience, if you kill such a baby bat in advance, there will be no problems with the progress of the main quest in the future, and the speed will be cool.

Once again, it was never because I had a personal conflict or argument with him that I was acting like a narrow-minded person.

Because at the time Sei determined that the color of my soul was light, it had been decided a long time ago who was on the side of justice and who was sickeningly evil.

I can’t tell you that I’m actually a kind of regressor who knows all the information about the future, so I just shrug my shoulders at Lumina’s question.

“… Heung, as well as his actions, he is also a man with no mate for his use. Since it can be said that being close to each other is a matter of passing water, is it an intention to take this opportunity to get rid of the person who will become an obstacle to you in advance?”

After muttering such a remark that seemed to misunderstand people as human garbage, Lumina looked at me with an expression of understanding.

“Well, that doesn’t seem like a bad suggestion to us. He’s aware of our existence, but he’s the one who sees whether he’ll stay with the humans or he’ll stick with us. And I hate those little bats too.”

Yes, that’s why I brought up the word to you that I would get rid of that bastard. Because if a woman like you is unintelligible down to her marrow, she would rather fight against herself and die if she dies.

“By the way, you are also a wonderful human being. When I first saw you, I had high hopes that a great hero among humans would be born and become our greatest adversary, but in reality, you were not a hero, but just such trash. This really is a big personal disappointment.”

“…..”

I automatically frowned at Lumina’s candid evaluation, but in my heart I decided to be patient.

Because I decided to endure the shame of joining hands with the demons for a very short time for the future of mankind, and in order to form a cooperative relationship with the ugly demons, I also needed to disguise myself as a disgusting human being.

‘Imagine is your strongest self… And the most important thing is an unbreakable heart… ‘

As I take a slow, deep breath to calm my trembling heart, Rumina asks me a question with a curious expression.

“Besides that, what are you trying to kill Earl Bright for? You must be well aware of the fact that I cannot use my hand against him recklessly even because of my external stance, right?”

“Also, he is one of the masters of the empire. At the same time, he is also a guy who plays the role of a faithful knight who declares that he does not belong to any faction and will only give his allegiance to the emperor.”

“… Well, externally, he has that kind of image.”

On the surface, he looks like a loyalist who will never exist again in the world, but in fact, the reason he maintains neutrality and bows his head to the emperor is no different, he looks at his liver here and there and buys his value the highest. To change the line quickly.

‘He’s just like Jinbe.’

If you only look at the guy’s actions in the original work, it wouldn’t be too awkward even if he was given the title of the god of politics.

He’s a guy who’s just barely straddling lines here and there, and crucially, the existence of demons in the present time is a secret to the outside world, so you can’t blindly hit and kill him.

Killing him isn’t a problem per se, you’ll have to think about ‘what justification’ to kill him.

“Well, don’t worry so much. I’ve conceived the whole thing in my own way.”

“How? What is it?”

When I tell her about the ‘method’, Lumina’s face turns weird, and she looks at me with interest.

“Funny. Do you have any plans to become a demon? Right now, I desperately want to have you under my command, even if it means sharing half of my demonic energy.”

“… I will decline.”

Let’s just take Lumina’s words as a kind of compliment, like ‘Oh, you really do f*ck the game’.

“Then, I will completely follow your instructions in matters related to him… Is there anything I can do to help you right now? I want to help out with one arm as soon as possible in such fun work.”

“Anyway, there is one thing I wanted to ask of Her Highness.”

“What is it?”

I look at her with a smirk at her Lumina’s question.

“It seems that Her Highness, the princess, will have to spend the night in the same bed as me tonight. The next morning, if rumors spread that they fell for each other, it wouldn’t be any better.”

For a moment, Rumina puts on a dazed expression, and then she smiles seductively at me.

“Kuh-kuh, you look like a madman. But it’s not bad.”

Saying that, Rumina put her arms over my shoulders and whispered in my ear.

“Well, in a sense, it seems like you’re playing with me, but I’ll let you watch it for once.”

The sweet laughter of demons that seduces and eventually corrupts people fills her room.

“As I said before, this body prefers a man with a face like yours.”

At the same time, Lumina and I began to overlap each other on the bed.

The next morning.

A servant in charge of cleaning the princess’ bedroom cautiously knocked on the door from the outside to tidy up her room.

“… Excuse me. Majesty. Since it is time to clean the room, could you please allow me to go inside?”

“…..”

However, despite her knock, no sound came from inside.

She knocked a couple more times, just in case, but she didn’t hear anything from inside, let alone a sign of anything. It seemed that the princess must have been away since morning on something urgent.

The servant who convinced himself like that opened the door leading to the princess’s bedroom without much thought.

And.

“… Ah?”

The very moment the door is opened, a strange smell stings the servant’s nose.

A strange smell that makes you think that something is erotic while giving you a feeling of being somewhere sweet.

And as for the servant, he knew all too well what this smell was.

Isn’t this kind of smell the same smell that comes from lovers who spend the night together?

“Ummm… Are you here?”

At that time, I heard the princess’s drowsy voice from somewhere.

“Suck! I, Your Highness… !”

At that moment, the servant covered his mouth with his two hands.

Because the current princess had nothing on her body except for a blanket wrapped around her chest, and she looked like a courtesan.

“Ah, are you surprised? I’m sorry. She spent the night so hecticly that she didn’t even notice that it was morning.”

Rumina speaks to the servant without changing a single expression, even though she looks really shy to others.

Actually, high-ranking people think of servants as moving furniture, so they don’t mind exposing their naked bodies, but Lumina has never seen such a disheveled appearance before, so she had a really puzzled expression. I had no choice but to build a .

And as if following that, on the bed where Rumina was lying just before, someone else spoke to her in a voice that sounded like she hadn’t woken up.

“… Lumina. Why are you suddenly waking up? Are there any guests?”

“Oh, are you awake, Reiner? I must have just fallen asleep, and I’m really sorry if I woke you up.”

Even though the two must have met for the first time yesterday, the Grand Duke of Yohrha speaks very casually towards the princess… Looking at Reiner Kroyze’s figure, the maid held her breath once more.

The series of images they are now showing in front of them… Isn’t it a look that can only be described as a pair of lovers?

When did those two become such close friends? And what the hell did they do last night, so that even when they saw each other naked, they didn’t show the slightest sign of shame?

No, more than that, I knew that the Grand Duke of YoRHa was already married to the Grand Duchess of YoRHa, but did he mean to commit adultery now?

When her servant felt the sensation of spinning around her in the flood of her unexpected information, Rumina opened her mouth with her languid voice as she looked at her.

“Oh, it seems that he noticed that the two of us were in a relationship like this. It looks like this is a big deal.”

In fact, just looking at her voice, far from being in a big deal, I could only feel something relaxed.

“If possible, I would like to keep today’s work a secret. I won’t tell you to keep your mouth shut because it’s going to be a rumor anyway, but don’t go around talking too blatantly. Do you understand?”

“… Yes.”

Looking at the back of the servant who hurriedly nodded and left, Lumina and Rainer ate and laughed.

I can assure you, I could even bet that the servant would never really keep his mouth shut.

After a while, rumors that Reiner and Lumina were passionately in love with each other began to spread throughout the imperial palace.
