Chapter 265 - END



If someone you don’t have any connection with wants to meet Tanya, you should do an ‘audience’ instead of making an appointment or asking an inquiry.

In short, there are times when you have to build authority and save face.

The same is true when Slog Keldrux, who has no contact with the Roth Taylor mansion, visits.

The figure of him sitting on the sofa for reception, with his legs crossed and his chin on his chin, is the appearance of an arrogant great aristocrat.

Like Tanya who does it when she’s doing it, she’s flawless. The way she braids her blonde hair with one hand underscores the feeling that Slogue is not very interested.

Actually, you must be very curious as to why the slog came this far.

“It is an honor to meet these two rulers of the Duchy of Roth Taylor.”

Slog Keldrux bows her head and politely bows.

After that, a number of upper-level employees knelt together and bowed their heads.

Tanya was trying to say something while looking at the politely polite slog…

“Keep.”

…I sneezed once.

While there was silence for a while, I quickly checked Slog’s impressions.

I think you can see why Lortel always called the old fox. Even if you just pretend to be contemplative, you are a veteran veteran who has gone through all the prenatal and prenatal events.

To survive for decades in the commercial city of Oldek is a medal for that alone. Over the past year, Old Deck has undergone many changes, but only one major premise has not changed.

A place where you can only survive if you hit them first before getting hit in the back.

This man is a venomous species that can be sold if necessary – family, friends, lovers.

I was leaning my back against the wall in the corner of the audience room, arms crossed.

From my standpoint, I don’t need to be polite here. This is the position of Tanya’s older brother, who has the highest authority in this space.

“I came all the way to the Rostaler mansion, just to say thank you.”

The merchant of the Old Deck never wastes time.

No one thinks they’ll come all the way to the Roth Taylor mansion just for that reason.

“Oh hey. You’re telling a funny story. Slog Caldras.”

“This is Keldrux. Master.”

“Slog Keldrux.”

Bell’s advice was as natural as water.

By the way, is it really possible to retain authority until the end… Tanya…

“Is there anything you should be thankful for?”

“I heard that Lortel Keheln, a key member of our Elte Company and faithfully fulfilling his role as a representative of the company, was greatly indebted to the Roth Taylor family. Considering the people you introduced me to, and the authorities you lent me, it is safe to say that I made an astronomical amount of profit.”

“I am glad that you, the merchants of Old Deck, also have the virtue of being grateful. But, did you come all the way here to tell such a natural story?”

Tanya, with her legs crossed and arrogantly waving her toes, showed a cold smile with her cold eyes.

“You wouldn’t have thought that I would immediately believe those words, so what’s the point?”

“I heard that a fox was hiding in the mansion.”

Slog had a good smile.

When Tanya responded with a smile along with an exclamation of ho-ho, the slog continued casually.

“The fox that escaped the cage must be put back in the cage. Isn’t it?”

“Well, in my eyes you look like an old and sick fox.”

“Originally, people who make money and live on their own money keep a fox in their chest. However, we should refrain from running out of the cage.”

Slog straightened his bow and spoke straight to Tanya, who looked down arrogantly.

“If you allow us to put a leash on a fox who ran away from our company, we will repay you so much that you feel that the grace you have given us was really valuable.”

“You’re talking cheeky, Slog Kell… Kel…”

It’s a bit of a strange name.

“Do you think we, the Roth Taylors, are shelters that harvest and protect stray animals?”

“Because I have heard of it.”

“You heard the wrong information.”

“I wish I could, but that’s unlikely.”

I wrinkled my eyebrows while listening to the conversation with my arms roughly folded.

The fact that they brought so many escorts to the Ross Taylor mansion has already convinced Slog.DiisCoover pdated novels on n(o)v./e/lbin(.)co

The whereabouts of Lortel must have been kept strictly secret. Slogue’s knowledge of such information probably … raises a possibility that you don’t want to think about.

“I heard it directly from the great and capable staff of our company, Lienna’s chief secretary.”

Is it torture or betrayal?

It doesn’t taste very good either way. Perhaps the former is more likely than the latter.

Compared to the authoritative and influential Lortel, Rienna, a single employee, would have been easier to deal with from the standpoint of a slog. But, what is she going to do with the rearrangement? Isn’t Lienna’s secretary already one of her firm’s key personnel?

I stared at the slug silently and threw out a word.

“You act as if you don’t care what happens after you become the owner of the company.”

“Becoming a Hoeju. Master Ed Roth Taylor. There is a meaning in those words.”

How can a good smile look so evil?

There was something ominous about Slog’s laugh, enough to make me think about it.

“I am not already a member of the Elte Chamber.”

*“Brother, this feeling… I might be addicted…”

Slog really just said that and went back.

Is that all that busy man does in such a big way?

I felt a sense of incongruity, but there was not enough evidence to judge anything right now.

“Oh, how are you? A little more like this, looking down, coldly… The feeling of selling… does it look a little cold…?”

“Master. Taking such an arrogant posture with such a small body is counterproductive.”

I applauded Belle, who said in a terrifying way, that it could only be seen as a taunting feast.

The audience room where Slog left.

Tanya sat down on a colorful chair, stretching her legs and relaxing. Tanya, who had been stretching back and forth with a gurgling sound, took a deep breath and buried herself in his backrest.

“Are you here to provoke? To go this far, to say only words that could be said in writing…”

“Well… Anyway, Slogue seems to know that we’re hiding a lortel.”

“There is no way we can give up Lortel-senpai. You should have known about the slog, but why do you have to go this far..”

“…just came to check.”

Bell, who listened to our conversation, made an opinion.

As usual, she is holding her arms and guarding Tanya’s back in a respectful posture.

The way he spoke politely with his eyes closed seemed like he was worried that his remarks might be off topic.

“Considering Lady Lortel’s personality, there is no way Slogue Kel’Drox would come to the mansion and hide in silence. He must have come forward and negotiated with Slog, negotiated, or cheated.”

A lot of practical work is a direct lortel.

I have a conversation with a human like Slogue, but it is absolutely not the nature to send an agent.

“However, seeing that he didn’t appear behind his master until the very end… Slog must have had some confidence.”

“…Lortel is now in a state where she can’t work normally…?”

“Yes. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be difficult to explain why the colossus took such a busy time to come here?”

Certainly Belle’s opinion is valid.

Whether she tortured Lienna’s secretary or persuaded her… Slog heard information about Lortel.

However, it would have been difficult to move with certainty only with the information that came out of Lienna’s mouth.

I wonder if I was subjected to a curse magic, how much of its effect was absorbed, how long I was incapacitated…

I wanted to see those things with my own eyes.

Because you are a human being who needs to move with certainty to get things done.

Anyway, seeing our reaction to hiding Lortel’s appearance to the end, you must have been convinced that Lortel is in serious condition.

“If I go back to the old deck, I’ll do something right away…”

“I think so, brother. From the slog’s point of view… the last element of anxiety has just disappeared.”

“At this point, I will not be able to sit still. Above all, I’m a little worried about Lienna’s secretary in the old deck.”

It is unusual that she, who is Lortel’s closest aide, opened her mouth.

She is an aide who supported Lortel until the end, even in extreme circumstances, when she betrayed Duni Sanghoe.

The means that made Lienna open like that doesn’t seem like it would be commonplace.

“I think there is a need to go to the old deck one more time.”

“You’re not going to get hurt anywhere, but be careful. Brother.”

“I’m not leaving right now… I have a few things to prepare.”

I rested my chin and pondered for a while, then talked to Tanya.

“From now on, if you send a letter to Saint Carpea, when do you think it will arrive?”

*After a rough conclusion, I returned to my room.

It was difficult to formulate a specific plan at a time when it was not known what Slog was planning.

I wanted to go to the Old Deck and think about the details, but I thought it would be better to prepare everything I could, so I brought a few tech materials from the warehouse.

It was a moment when I was thinking of making something using the magic tools in my private room. In the closet in the corner of the room, I felt a strange popularity.

Tanya’s bizarre habit shows no sign of being fixed.

Actually, it’s been in an attic box recently, or being locked in a wine cellar with extra curtains covered… >

I think I’ve already crossed the line when I thought this was okay, but… Anyway, where is it that you can find it easily?

I sighed and opened the closet door.

“What are you so busy with this time that you run away…”

The moment you say that, you realize that the person in the closet isn’t Tanya.

– Hui… Pee…

Lortel is asleep while holding her notebook tightly, breathing heavily.

Certainly, as his body became a little smaller, he became a body that could be hidden in a closet like this.

I know that sometimes I play hide and seek with Lucy and run around the mansion.

It seems to be a difficult task for Lucy to play with, but since there are no talented people like Lucy to monitor the progress of this curse magic, I left it to him.

Of course, caring for an energetic child is not easy. He was swung around by Lortel every day without any magical power, and now he has even given up looking for it.

It is not difficult to imagine Lucy running down the hall of the mansion, led by Lortel’s arm, exhausted and falling away. You always have a lot of trouble… Lucy…

Suddenly, his gaze turns to the large notebook Lortel is holding.

That is the notebook Lortel carried for work before she lost her memory.

Of course, this is a job that requires a lot of notes. Still, some schedules can be managed through secretaries, but are there other things that I have to memorize myself?

You must be aware of a lot of top secrets inside the company, so it is likely.

By the way, the cursed Lortel always carried that notebook with him.

As if it were a precious treasure, he hid it from others and was always reading it alone in a corner.

I’m not sure if it’s awkward to read difficult characters, but the reading speed itself was slow… But the way he stared intently as if he was going to read the whole thing one day was impressive.

It’s possible to take that notebook and forcefully open the contents, but it felt like tearing apart a child’s heart, so I left it alone.

However, at a point where you don’t know what’s written inside… you can’t wait any longer.

There may be important clues, so let’s take a quick look at Lortel while he’s sleeping…

It was the moment when I reached out to the notebook like that.

“Heh heh heh heh?!”

“…?”

Lortel suddenly woke up the moment he was about to take the notebook, as if his sixth sense had worked.

I wiped the saliva from the corners of my mouth, clasped the notebook tightly with the opposite hand, and crawled into the corner of the closet.

Lortel’s blushing face was revealed through a row of shirts and coats hanging from the hangers.

“No, no! No!”

It looks like a wildcat with a lot of blades in her arms while holding her notebook tightly like that. Lortel growled like that, and then suddenly realized that it was me, and took a deep breath.

“Sorry! I’m sorry! Come on, go to sleep!”

“Yes, are you awake?”

“Uh-huh… I’m sure… I was playing hide-and-seek with Lucy…”

“Yeah, I know what the situation is, so get out of the closet first…”

It’s too much with only Tanya, but it’s difficult to become a regular customer of the closet to Lortel.

When I reached out to Lortel, Lortel shrugged once more, lowered her gaze, and slowly placed her hand on my palm.

Escape by pulling it straight out. I took Lortel’s hand, put it on the table in the corner of the room, and started magically warming the teapot in the corner of the room, thinking that it would be better to make a cup of tea.

Lortel placed her fists on her knees and pressed them tightly, and continued the conversation with difficulty.

“Sorry, I’m sorry… No, I told you not to enter the room as you like… That… I somehow managed to escape… I made a mistake…”

“I am not scolding you, so there is no need to be nervous. Have a cup of tea or go. I’ll keep it a secret from the maids.”

“Oh, really?! Thank you!”

I simply brewed a cup of hot black tea and served it to the front, brought a cup of tea for me to drink and sat on the other side.

“Is there anything inconvenient about living in a mansion?”

“Yes! So good! Belle, Yenica, and Lucy too! Duke Tanya is a bit… scary, but…”

This is also surprising.

“Anyway, the users and the maids play every day, so every day is so busy! Nice to see you at the Roth Taylor mansion, hehe.”

Anyway, it feels like Lortel has become a mascot nonsense running around the mansion for the past hour.

Whether you go exploring by yourself with a lot of dirt on your body, play hide and seek with Lucy, or take a nap on Yenica’s lap…

He’s already completely mixed in here as a cutie in the mansion.

I’ve come too far to say what to do after I really calmed down.

I’m just praying for your peace.

“Wow, whoa, whoa… Ed makes tea well… ma, it’s delicious… You are really good at everything you hear…”

“Like you heard?”

“Yeah? Ahaha, users… they often say things like that…!”

Lortel took the teacup with her slender hands and took a sip.

“Hot tea calms the mind and relaxes the body. I’m giving this because I think I’m too confused. Have a drink and relax.”

“Yes, yes, thank you…”

When that comfortable feeling entered my heart, I slowly closed my eyes and gathered my magic.

Lortel in its current state, unable to feel any magical power, would not be able to even resist. That’s probably because it was a special type of magic that went beyond normal magic.

“Wow… I think it’s because I’m at ease… I’m tired…”

As if possessed by something, Lortel slowly fell asleep on her desk.

Beside him lay the notebook he had been carrying so dearly.

Looking at Lortel’s sleepy face again, he slowly reached out and brought a notebook.

The notebook I carried with me so dearly. Opening this is a matter of necessity rather than curiosity.

Checking the last note Lortel left before losing her memory is a process that must be followed.

Honestly, it’s not self-rationalization, it’s really natural and reasonable…

As I was looking at the notebook, which had been worn out from keeping it cherished for a long time… I had a strange feeling.

I feel like I’m doing something very, very bad…

Still, what can’t be helped is unavoidable.
