Chapter 440 143 - Shocking reveal (part 5)

　　"Ah, right. I was quite furious just now. You see, it was announced that I would leave to the Perserios territory to help them deal with the barbarian problem as a way of fulfilling my obligation. I was even given a time frame I should leave. The audacity!"

　　"That sounds ridiculous! Can they even do that? What if you refuse?"

　　Burushi gasped and frowned just like the black-haired boy did.

　　"Originally I wanted to go against it and came here to get you before returning to the Banemor territory, but actually... I don\'t feel good acting all evil around people that I like, maybe we should go back to our initial plan of being nice to others and clearing up our names slowly over time?"

　　Zoemi breathed out, losing his anger once more - this time for good and complained while pressing the ice pack created by his sentinels to his stomach.

　　"Going back to the initial plan that you changed all on your own without consulting it with anyone including me? Sure. I don\'t mind. But what caused you to see the error of your ways? If you don\'t mind me asking?"

　　The blond heroine asked while crossing her arms under her chest.

　　"...Horeo and Miriette\'s engagement is going under reevaluation, if it will indeed end up getting canceled, her family would start looking for another suitor. That is just how things work. The Espine family is an honorable one, and they would not consider someone with rumors of running an underground, highly illegal slave trade as a valid option..."

　　Although Zoemi hesitated for a bit, he ended up revealing his reason, while blushing slightly.

　　"Wha...?! Are you saying that you are changing our plans again because there is a chance you will get together with your waifu?!"

　　"Hey! You of all people have no right to call me out on that, okay?! Not after hooking up with your favorite capture target, even though he was...! Even though he was a high noble and you are of a lower status..."

　　Burushi gasped in disbelief, which made Zoemi snapback - he even almost straight up told her about the second prince getting hexed and never truly loving her, but managed to stop himself, as it felt like that would be going too far, even in anger, considering that there seem to really be some budding affection towards her within Surou\'s heart.

　　"Yeah, that\'s fair. Then, when we depart to the Perserios territory?"

　　The blond-haired girl looked to the side in embarrassment and nodded, knowing full well that her opinion on the subject was rather biased.

　　"Depends. How fast can you pack our belongings?"

　　The black-haired boy shrugged his shoulders and asked in an indifferent voice so it was hard to tell whether he was serious or not.

　　"I do have an invitation to visit the Parats territory too, but truth be told I would much rather teleport straight to the Perserios castle since it would be much more efficient. After learning exactly what am I expected to do there, we can visit them on our way back."

　　"Not exactly what I was asking about, but sure sounds like a plan. Do the Perserios family knows about it though? I remember that teacher Perserios mentioned that the tribes of barbarians are constantly harassing the borders, and it sounded like they would not mind helping hand with repealing them, but showing up unannounced is kind of rude for the host. Wouldn\'t you agree? And you just said that you are quitting going for the villain route."

　　Zoemi titled his head and stared into a distance while recounting out loud - to which Burushi responded in a serious and clear-headed manner.

　　"Burushi. I agreed to help them out the previous night and there is already an actual official announcement regarding the matter hanging on the announcement board. If someone was rude, it wasn\'t me. At least not first.

　　They have no excuse and I will not back on the matter at all."

　　He scoffed, crossing his arms and making a stern expression.

　　"Alright, fair enough."

　　The heroine spoke raised her brows and nodded in understanding.

　　"I was this close from breaking my promise and just holding up in the Banemor territory. With my sentinels and Benevirau, I would love to see anyone trying to force me to do anything."

　　The black-haired boy began fuming one last time, raising his left hand and putting his index finger and thumb together, leaving just a microscopic gap between them.

　　"My lord, I do understand. It\'s okay."

　　Burushi rolled her eyes and snickered seeing Zoemi act like that.

　　"You know, maybe you are suited to be a villain. Not the super evil last boss one, but a mid-game obstacle in an otome game. Are you sure that you secretly aren\'t a DLC character?"

　　She added lightheartedly while already walking to the door.

　　"Who knows? Maybe. By this point I am honestly not sure - and considering that some people treat me like a gullible idiot who is appeased by a bit of skinship and can be pointed out in the direction of their choosing, that might not be a farfetched claim."

　　"...oh...okay..."

　　Although the blond-haired heroine wanted only to leave the conversation on a funny note, Zoemi took her joke a little bit too serious and made her a little bit weirded out, and actually left.

　　"(Master, are you angry at the necromancer?)"

　　The second of his sentinels asked innocently as the black-haired boy was left alone in the staff\'s break room.

　　|Yes, I am upset. Aspy\'s puppet put up that dumb announcement while I was with her in her office.|

　　Zoemi nodded and thought back, before leaving the room as he noticed that there were some servants and attendants coming there for their break but none dared to actually enter while he was inside.

　　"Good job, have a nice day."

　　"!!!"

　　"Ah, thank you, young lord!"

　　The black-haired boy nodded at the servants he has passed which made most of them stunned and silent or caused them to bow their heads deeply.

　　"(I see... Master is upset because he wanted the necromancer in his harem, but she is using his kindness with some ulterior motives in mind...! Not good, someone needs to keep an eye on her!)"

　　"?!?!?!"

　　The second sentinel wasn\'t done at all and called out in excitement as if they figured out something incredibly complicated - which made Zoemi almost trip over his own feet when he heard it.

　　|Wha...?! Are you still hung on to the idea of me having a harem?! Give it a rest, little one! I am not pursuing the evil image anymore!|

　　Zoemi complained while shaking his head and steadying his walk.

　　"(Yeah, I know~! But having a harem isn\'t evil - it\'s cool!)"

　　The little sentinel was not giving up on the subject at all.

　　|You said before that being evil is cool, and cool people have harems. By that logic...|

　　"(Umm... master, you are not making sense...)"

　　Zoemi sighed and wanted to remind his sentinel about their own words, but then the second sentinel pulled out a rug from under his feet by acting as if he had no idea what was it about.

　　"(Master, give it a rest. Some of us are smart, but this one here is not one of those...)"

　　"(Hey...!)"

　　The first sentinel spoke up apologetically, making the second one call out in embarrassment.
