What if the villainous aristocrat who is the middle boss remembers his previous life and gains knowledge of the game – I will never accept a future in

с19



I have hardly met the Duke himself, but from what I know the Duke dotes on his daughter.

I do not know how the father negotiated with him.

He would not have wanted to give up his own daughter in the first place, and if I were to ask him to break off the engagement, he would have agreed to do so immediately.

However, the Count's family, which is lower in rank, cannot officially ask for an engagement to be broken off, so it makes sense to keep my very bad reputation in the Duke's territory so that the Duke can take advantage of it.

"I really don't care about my reputation in the dukedom.

The problem is that bad rumors spread outside the dukedom, but most of the nobles would understand the consequences of my bad reputation in their own lands, and even if I can't quell them, I won't set them ablaze."

While recovery magic is monopolized by the church, which is not on good terms with the nobility, the healing potions of the Counts of Dicaman are one of the few ways to recover from injuries.

If the bad reputation is spread in his own territory, it is natural that I will do everything in my power to stop it.

"I see, then, I will act according to the decision of Khalil-sama."

Oh, Bosco, I mainly want you to take care of the Count family and Mina."

What, me? You mean Mina?"

Come to think of it, I didn't explain.

'The earring-type magic tool that Mina is wearing is a very valuable and powerful item.

It's so valuable and powerful that it could be a national treasure."

"I guess so. ......'

As soon as the word "national treasure" was mentioned, Mina understood it and sounded surprised with a strange voice.

Bosco, on the contrary, asked in a calm voice if it was safe.

There is a possibility that it could go out of control if we only consider the effects, so to counter that risk, you want me to teach magic to Mina.

But even if I teach it to her and use magic regularly, that magical tool seems to have a will of its own, and to be honest, I'm not sure if it's safe."

"I see."

Mina's face grows pale as she listens to the conversation between me and Bosco, well, it's natural to feel uneasy if she hears this kind of conversation.

Mina is repeatedly moving her hand close to the earring she is wearing, then moving it away, then moving it close to her ear, and then moving it away, and then moving it away, and then moving it close to her ear.

"Mina."

"Yes!"

'The earrings are quite powerful and can hold up to a year's worth of magic power even if you leave them on.

You don't need to worry so much."

"Is that so?"

I'll have to use magic myself to reassure her.

"I would like to ask Bosco to train you in magic.

I'll set aside some time to teach you, so you'd better have a certain foundation by then.""

Bosco's burden is tremendous.

I'm sorry, but please bear with me a little longer. If I don't get the Count family's problems settled quickly with someone I can trust, the very existence of the Count family itself will be in danger.

'I will put you through a lot of hardships: ......

"I don't consider it a hardship, I would rather thank you."

The eyes of Bosco, who responded to my murmur and began to speak, were very strong.

"The Count's family has been growing since Master Khalil changed his mind that day.

The Count's family, which had been so busy trying to maintain itself, has undergone ambitious changes, and the servants, including myself, feel as if we have been rejuvenated somehow.'

......

"The Countess of Dicaman has saved many of the servants

Where is the need for us to feel any hardship in returning the favor?"

How did Khalil in my knowledge become such a jealous Count when he had such wonderful vassals and was so adored by them?

Bosco's pure words, which are not mixed with even a single lie, make my heart burn, and my vision is also distorted without my heart.

, "Well, I'm counting on you, ......."

Was my voice trembling?

"Of course, master."

I stood up and stared out the window, trying not to let them see my face.

I know my face is probably unbearable to look at right now.

"I will go and instruct the servants at once.'

"Oh, and come back once before supper and make sure no one comes in until then."

"Yes, Master'.

Bosco and Mina leave the room.

Now that I have been shown so much loyalty, I have to take care of what I have to do.

"First of all, I have to make a report to the nobles.

I'll send it to the leading noble families, especially those who were interested in the Red Stone Disease, but it's a balance."

The Duke of Ewell's faction, to whom the report will be sent, is also in the mix, as well as the opposing faction, which is of course the opposite.

It's a noble family that's thin as a duke's weakness, but they're able to oppose the dukes, and they'll use it well to keep them in check.

"After this, there's the allocation of funds: salaries, territory management, savings, and ......"

I have to clean up one thing at a time. Everything will be halfway done and mistakes will be made.

Concentrate on what's in front of me.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Already back?"

The Duke's study, where I received Count Khalil Diqaman's report.

'Yes.'

"I was the only one on watch, but I believe that Count Dicaman returned to his territory before I regained consciousness.'

""I see."

My scheme probably made it difficult for the Count to stay in the Duke's territory, and I can understand why he would want to throw the treatment away in the middle of his treatment and go home.

But I am not allowed to feel guilty. I did what I did for the duke's family and I have absolutely no regrets.

"But I didn't think the Count would not come to see my daughter."

Has there been any change in the Count who was so in love with my daughter?

Knock-knock.

Come in.

"Master Alan, I have finished appraising the letter from the Count."

The duke has a lot of enemies. It's a necessary act of security.

"Thank you.'

The content of the letter was really simple.

But there were a few words that could not be overlooked.

In particular, the part about finding a cure for red stone disease. The Count was vague about whether this was true, but his many years of intuition told me that he had already found a cure.

"I guess we'll just have to wait and see."

From now on, I'll have to recognize him as the head of Count Dickaman's family, not as my daughter's fiancée.

I didn't have the feeling that if I responded incorrectly, the duke's family would decline.
