The bad ending of an Otome game MTL - Chapter (100)
Episode 100
It was an emotionless voice. A soldier who followed, bound the merchant, who was poorly thrown on the floor. Alston clicked his tongue at the sight.
“If the business over there is good enough to bribe gold coins, the nobles will also give it a try. It may be promoted as a Kingdom project. This is really, really outrageous.”
“They said the capital guard went over once.”
“…….”
Alston was silent.
“Everywhere, taking bribes and turning a blind eye to trivial things is rampant.”
“Didn’t I tell you to imagine the worst anytime, anywhere?”
“Deputy chief…….”
Alston made a faintly ill sound.
“…… In the middle of the capital city, even in socialite season, that…… Unbelievers… … .”
“It’s possible that you are communicating with the Capital Guard.”
“We can’t solve it on our own, Vice-Captain.”
Laertes, who had been walking forward without blockage, stopped. Alston’s face darkened.
“Yeah, that killifish, even with our authority, we can somehow deal with it. What if even a low-ranking aristocrat with no real power can do it well… … With the authority of the vice-captain, it will be overcome somehow. But what next? What if the person who came out of the investigation was a great aristocrat?”
“Sir Alston.”
“Sir Laertes, of course, is capable. If you’re second in the kingdom, you’re a shame. But you know His Majesty the King is now lying on the bed. If we act recklessly in the midst of this, we will immediately become dogs on a leash as an act of overreach.”
“…….”
“The existence of unbelievers…… It belongs to a semi-traitor by itself, so it is right to subdue it at any cost. I know. But we are swords. You can only move when you receive orders.”
“So, you mean pretend you don’t know?”
“You may have to investigate. We can prevent it ourselves, and if we can save it, we can save people too. However…….”
Alston opened his mouth.
“We are not beings who can wield swords as we please. do you know well If you make a mistake, Sir Laertes will be cut off from his seat for an act of supremacy. Of course, the Knights Templar will not be willing to accept it.”
“…….”
“You don’t know how big the enemy is. Just a little bit, be careful.”
Alston looked at Laertes, who was silent, with a nervous feeling.
There are many reasons The queen may force Laertis to tame it, and the nobles who stand on the side of the archduke will diligently hang on to the sword with the intention of removing the royal sword for the future.
Whichever way I imagined, the back was not good. Fair treatment is also something to look forward to only after the urgent situation of the noble lilies is finally resolved.
After a while, the silent knight opened his mouth.
“…… I get it.”
“Thank you, Vice-Captain.”
“It’s not something I should thank you for.”
Laertes laughed like a sigh. His eyes were wet with fatigue.
At first glance, the capital was not the same as before. It was crowded all over the place due to the crowds rushing to the capital for the socializing season.
Stalls stand up every day, and solicitors, pickpockets and swindlers are on the run. Even the cheap inn rooms were so full that the wanderers could not get a room.
Every day on the riverside, there was a sculpture boat for lovers. Dressing rooms, restaurants, and the opera house were full of people everywhere. The crime rate has also risen.
In many ways, the requirements were not good. Even the Knights of Glamis roamed around for investigation, and the Knights Guard did not like it and interfered with it.
The progress of the investigation was also sluggish. The book itself, which was said to have started to become popular, was obtained immediately, but no matter how much I looked at it, it was close to just an ordinary love story.
The missing people did not return. Occasionally, people around me tilted their heads, saying, ‘I am not a child who will disappear like that.’
“You said Grand Duke Franz came to the capital?”
“…….”
Laertes was silent. Alston clicked his tongue, noticing the young look in the silence.
“Are you invited?”
“I want to see your face. To commend myself for my hard work.”
Strictly speaking, even if Laertes inherits the Marquis family of Windrose, he is still a marquis. He is lower in rank than the King’s younger brother and Archduke Franz.
But Laertes was a knight of the king. In fact, he is also the commander of the knights.
If you use the word ‘Congratulations’ to him, you can become the subject of subtle gossip. Of course, Archduke Franz intends to use even that slurp right now.
“Oh, my poor vice-captain. What is this about getting caught up in a political battle? You can’t even run away.”
“Is it fun to make fun of me?”
“It’s not like that. I have a feeling that Sir Laertes will be more tired when he is never married.”
“…….”
Laertes sighed. Alston narrowed his eyes at the weak figure of the first knight in the kingdom, which was rarely seen.
“Aren’t you thinking at all?”
“…… It’s still a long way off.”
“I heard that there are some popular novels, too. According to my wife, it’s like dating after contract marriage.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Is there a girl you like? Wouldn’t it work if I courted Lord Laertes on condition?”
“It’s not a match for that kind of thing.”
Alston whistled.
“Wow, I have sometimes thought that I wish I could only live one day as Lord Laertes. No, there’s a girl who doesn’t even look at the deputy chief’s face, personality, and background even though he puts it all together? Have you ever become a princess? No, no. Rather, if you are a princess, now is the time to beg for the deputy chief.”
“I’m not the kind of person who judges people like that.”
The voice was so subtle that Alston stopped whistling.
The voice sounded rather painful. A voice that seems to recall the wounds that have been burning for a long time.
Seeing the scar-like purple eyes covered with blood and pus, Alston realized anew. That man is sincere.
“This is a story from a book my wife read, but a man had a crush on a woman, so he wrote and sent a letter every day. Do you know what happened after 100 days like that?”
“…….”
“She fell in love with the mailman and got married.”
Well, the purpose of Alston’s wife telling Alston this story was different.
‘That stupid man. If you don’t get a reply, you shouldn’t have sent it. No, what the hell are you doing sending a letter that doesn’t get a reply back? He didn’t just talk about himself. Just imagining it is terrifying. Or do you put money in the letter and send it? So you, okay? If I’m going to confess my love, I’ll share it with my paycheck. I really don’t care about people who don’t have anything, they’re young, and they only confess their love with their bare hands. ‘Cause we’re not even young anymore You know?’
After all, Alston was the kind of man who considered it lucky to have married my wife.
Neither of them had any unrequited love for each other. He clearly expressed what he wanted and did what he could for the other person.
They dated calmly, judging the conditions, and married because they were sure that they were the right person for each other. Although there was no thrilling excitement, there was stable trust.
Alston thought it would be nice if my boss could also meet someone like that.
That savvy kid who didn’t know how to say a word of hardship since he was very young. If it was the person who made the other person look like this, there was no need to say anything.
“So what…… Stop worrying from afar and go see it. Isn’t that the lesson? Isn’t the urgent task finished right now?”
Laertes Hope seemed hesitant, then nodded slowly again. The hot wind, which had just begun to blow from afar, tickled his cheeks.

“See you here again.”
I thought of Elodie, who was smiling brightly at me.
When it comes to coincidence, it’s harsh. If there is really such a thing as a god, it is clear that he has a bad feeling towards me. can be predicted
I promised Casio Brahmanduff a date, not a date, and, glancing at the gold coins I got, I made an appointment by letter with the Count of Beth.
The place was a high-end cafe famous in the capital. Drinks were mostly for assortment, and desserts were popular. A former royal pastry chef works there.
Of course, the cook in the townhouse where I was staying was also a good cook. Tea food was good too. I liked the flavor of the scones or madeleines served with each cup of tea.
However, if you eat home-cooked food anywhere, you will be bitten. In the meantime, I stumbled upon this store by chance.
Newspapers not only raked up all kinds of scandalous articles and rumors, but also introduced these cute cafes and attractions frequently. Thanks to you, I found this place.
Peach tart and melon sorbet were released in season, along with delicious illustrations.
When asked about her intentions in a letter, Count Beth Young-ae was in favor of a short cut.
I calmly chased away Casio, who was squeamish, saying he could escort me nicely.
It was a time when I was just thinking about what to eat when I met Young-ae, Count of Beth, with a smile… … .
“The stewed peach tart here is more delicious than just the peach tart.”
Coincidentally, he met Elodie, who was approaching this way, smiling kindly that he had also come to this store.
