Became the Son-in-Law of the Traitorous Family

10. April is the cruelest month – 09

A week has passed since I was blushing and attending various aristocratic gatherings within the system.

And during that week, so many things have changed compared to before I arrived here.

‘First of all, the name Rainer Kreuzze has become synonymous with pure love and romance.’

To be honest, I could say that this was something I hadn’t even expected.

Because I was lying on the bed all night with Lumina… To be more precise, the reason I pretended to be like that was because I wanted my name to spread to every corner of the imperial palace, not to build an image like this.

But when he came to his senses, he realized that despite being a victim of an arranged marriage, a man named Rainer Kreuzse had become a true romantic of this era who was passionately in love with the princess for his true happiness, transcending social status and borders. .

When I see the young ladies of noble families looking at me with bright eyes every time I attend a meeting, for some reason my face gets hotter.

To be honest, it’s a f*cking cheesy image, but unexpectedly, this image is also very popular with women.

It wasn’t for nothing that when celebrities appeared in variety shows in modern times, they held a concept like a two-headed star and put on various shows.

And thanks to the establishment of such an external image, my reputation was growing day by day even if I did nothing.

And the fact that as my reputation within the imperial palace increased, someone’s reputation was inversely proportional to it, falling vertically toward the bottom day by day, was also one of the factors that made me feel good.

‘A double personality who is clearly different from the inside, and an ugly, cold-blooded man blinded by power!’

A week ago, Count Bright was one of the only 12 Masters in the Empire and was revered as the guardian deity of the imperial family, but now he is disgusted by the fact that he openly tried to kill an innocent person to maintain his power. It was being treated as human garbage.

Where is that? Earl Bright was in fact secretly allied with the evil and ugliest demon, Illivatus, and rumors were openly circulating that he was plotting to help him destroy the empire.

‘No matter what, I’ve never spread rumors that far.’

The rumors that I asked Lumina to spread were that I and she had a one-night stand with her, and that he was afraid of any ‘secret’ leaking out of my mouth, so he spewed murder at me. , There were only these two.

‘Anyway, he looks like human trash. After all, there are really few people in the world who can be trusted.’

And only then did I have no choice but to click my tongue inwardly as I listened to the ugly truth of the guy revealed to the world and his actions so far.

On the outside, he pretended to be a transcendental person who had nothing to do with the world, but in fact he was trash that colluded with dirty demons behind the scenes.

I swung my sword as hard as I could to reach the level of a master, but there were as many as 11 people who claimed to be on the same level as me, and decisively, as long as there was an emperor, I realized that I could not reach the top of the empire and destroyed the empire. The incarnation of power itself, which has been devising all kinds of evil schemes to bring down.

The owner of an obscene desire who has risen to the level of a master with an ugly method that can only be described as an affair by casting the disgusting and ugly black magic taught by Illivatus by using the hearts of virgins and children in his territory as sacrifices!

And all these rumors could be said to be the climax, but it could be said that the guy was in fact in love with the imperial princess unrequitedly.

It all started 10 years ago.

After the imperial princess, Yurika del Cartesia, disappeared for some reason, the only remaining princess in her imperial family was Lumina del Cartesia.

It is said that at that time, Earl Bright had a secret desire that was disgusting and obscene looking at the appearance of the princess Lumina, who had just turned 10 years old.

It goes without saying that the desire he harbors is a sinful crime itself that even a human can’t even talk about!

Her Lumina’s appearance was also her appearance, but in fact, Earl Bright, who was plotting to leave her own lineage in her imperial lineage, from then on, her Lumina as her future self. It is said that she was marked as the wife of

However, Count Bright’s filthy plans go awry when a young man appears.

Because of the black magic cast by Illivatus as a sacrifice of a virgin’s heart, the princess Lumina, who had no interest in other men, had a fateful meeting with a young man, and all the evil plans surrounding her came to an end. Like the darkness that met the silver light, it was scattered in an instant!

When his unrequited love, which he had secretly kept secretly for over 10 years, was all shattered because of some bastard, Count Bright, who could not hold back his resentment for a moment, eventually spewed out his lifeblood to kill the young man. I can say it’s true

‘Kiya… just be the writer author.’

At this point, I wonder if the seeds of children and women living in Count Bright’s estate have dried up.

And no matter how fateful the meeting may be, the setting that the black magic that had been hanging on Lumina for over 10 years shattered like glass the moment she faced me didn’t feel like something was lacking in the setup.

So, when I quietly asked the narrator a question, only an absurd answer came back saying that it was all because of the power of love.

‘Pooh-up.’

If Count Bright himself heard these rumors, just imagining in his head what kind of expression he would make would cause laughter to leak out.

Thanks to you, during the past week, I had the happiest time since I fell into this world.

‘Well, actually, it’s impossible to hurt him with rumors like this.’

Of course, everyone knew that all of this was nothing more than gossip and, at the same time, nothing but nonsense.

And so was the fact that Earl Bright’s position in the Empire would never be shaken by such nonsense.

Even though Count Bright did not belong to any faction and declared neutrality, he was able to solidify his position within the imperial palace and exercise his own influence because he himself was the absolute ruler of the people who had reached the level of a master. .

In other words, unlike other nobles, the source of the power that Earl Bright has is attributed to his own ability, so unless he suddenly loses his power, there is no way any damage will go to him.

‘Of course, it was only meant that way on the surface.’

The rumors about Earl Bright that were circulating in the world didn’t seem to do any damage to him, but looking at the facts, I couldn’t say that they were absolutely meaningless.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that in all politics, the image itself built step by step in front of the public is the most important.

‘Okay. It’s a very good flow.’

And in order to continue driving this momentum, I greatly increased the time I had with the nobles.

However, it should be said that the biggest difference is that in the past, they mostly attended tea parties centered on female nobles such as ladies and young ladies, but this time they mainly attended social gatherings centered on male nobles.

“This is true. It’s truly an honor to meet the rumored protagonist who’s been rocking the system lately. Nice to meet you, Your Highness, Grand Duke of Yohrha.”

“Ah, it is truly an honor to meet Marquis Tilden, who is famous throughout the empire. In fact, Marquis Tilden’s reputation is so condescending even to our Principality of YoRHa, he was the person I wanted to meet the most when I decided to go to the Empire this time.” “

“hahahaha, His Highness the Grand Duke praises me a lot. To hear such an evaluation from His Highness the Archduke, and not from anyone else, seems like something I’m ashamed of.”

“Oh, how embarrassing. I’m just stating the facts as they are. If you were ashamed of my words, wouldn’t it be proof that the Marquis has lived a life without shame?”

“Ha ha ha ha! This is true! Your Highness is right. No way! Once again, I think it was a good thing that I had a meeting with His Highness the Grand Duke today!”

“By the way, this is a small courtesy from the Principality of YoRHa to the Marquis, albeit insufficient. Please keep it.”

“Oh no, I can’t believe it. Even so, as one of the nobility of the empire, it might not be the right thing to accept such a thing without hesitation… “

“It’s okay. This goes beyond the level of a simple castle for the Marquis, because it is also something for the people of the territory ruled by the Marquis and, furthermore, for the subjects of the empire itself. I’ll take all the guilt with me, so I hope the Marquis will just concentrate on looking down on all the people.”

“Kuhmm… If you go that far, it’s a bit of a refusal… “

Of course, it’s impossible for that human to really use that sincerity against the people of the Territory, as I just talked about.

Well, as you can see from the fact that this kind of conversation has come and gone, the people I mostly meet are people who like flattery toward themselves and even more like bribes, who can be said to be the crystallization of a greedy duck. It was the majority.

‘And those kind of people are the type of people I love the most.’

Because with just a few bribes and a few flatterys, you can quickly become close friends like you’ve known for 10 years.

And he came to have a crush on me, and it was only natural that he would subtly take my side in the forthcoming public opinion war, as there was something he received and suffered.

‘Because it can be said that it is the bond that comes and goes between people.’

But at the same time, all of this was just preparation for a decisive blow to him.

And now, the time has come to deliver the devastating blow to its complete downfall.

“Hey, it’s been a long time since I saw this. As expected, as a Master of the Empire, should I say that I will be able to do it without any burden for the next 100 years?”

“… You guy.”

As soon as he saw my face, Count Bright growled like a beast.

If it hadn’t been for the eyes around me, it was an amazing killing spree that might have drawn my sword and slashed my neck.

Yes. Although it was a story under the assumption that it might have happened if there were no eyes around.

“Uh-huh, Count. Where is this place right now, spewing out such a heinous life? The Grand Duke of YoRHa is my guest, and at the same time a precious guest of the Empire. Did you know that what you’re doing now is an act of contempt not only for me, but also for His Majesty the Emperor?”

“… I’m sorry, Your Highness.”

Earl Bright bowed his head towards me as the young man who was crossing his legs in a really arrogant attitude next to him was grinding his teeth.

And in contrast, the young man who was gazing at the Count with an arrogant gaze spreads a wide smile on his face as soon as he met me.

“It’s been a while, Archduke. Is this the second time we’ve met since we saw each other at Viscount Hilton’s gathering last time?”

“That is so, Your Highness. It is an eternal honor for me to be able to see the brave face of Your Highness, who will rule the empire in the future.”

“Ha ha ha! Seriously, the Grand Duke always picks out words that I like! He is like a very close friend of mine!”

A young man whose nonsense often comes out of his mouth saying that he is a close friend because he has known me since when.

And seeing the young man pretending to be so close to me, Count Bright only shook his hands more and more.

Yes. The identity of that young man is none other than the Crown Prince of the Empire, Heinrich del Cartesia.

As the second most noble being in the empire after the emperor… He was also one of the bastards who ate the Empire, with whom I had a blood brother relationship after our last meeting.

Of course, he was a kind bastard who was very helpful to me.
