The bad ending of an Otome game MTL - Chapter (146)
Episode 146
* * *
“Your Majesty, aren’t you sick?”
Beth whispered to me. I did not even think to control my expression and answered in a muffled voice.
“…… So far it has been.”
Judging from the nuances of Cassio, who gave me the royal family news, it seemed unlikely that he would ever open his eyes again.
This is not a place where medical technology is so developed, and even if it was divine power, there was no dramatic effect such as reviving a person on the verge of death.
Still, as his name is the king, he must have tried all kinds of means and methods in the royal family.
But the king, who woke up at this time, gave such an order?
Without going too far, this is a conspiracy.
In the current situation, if Elodie is identified as the chief and removed, who will benefit?
My head was spinning round and round.
In the game, was it like this? The Marquis of Windrose went extinct many times. Unbelievers and… … I think I’ve heard of heresy as well.
All I could remember was that Elodie had been put in a tragic way.
“Lady Beth, I’m going first in the carriage. I’m… … I’ll go look around the mansion.”
Bess didn’t say much and left me with a worried look on how he thought of me muttering with a blank face like a lost doll.
I forced myself, almost as stiff as a piece of wood, into my room.
I didn’t have time, so I threw things and threw the box.
Clues, there must be some clues. A clue left by Ophelia. I just thought so.
Since the story about Elodie has exploded like this, it is difficult to officially visit the Marquis of Windrose in the future. I had to find a clue now.
Ribbons, pieces of lace, and old, torn books on the bookshelf were a mess and rolled on the floor.
I frantically scanned the well-arranged luggage and boxes, treating them like rags.
Only when I opened the small box that I had kept aside, I stopped shaking my hands as if I had tremor.
A locket necklace wrapped between a green and purple ribbon as clean as new.
It was all silver, and the exterior was decorated with delicate craftsmanship such as birds, branches, and pearls.
Even now as an adult, it was an object large enough to be half the size of my palm.
As soon as I stuttered, there was a squeaking sound. It won’t open if you just apply force. I hung the locket necklace around my neck and tucked it into my clothes.
There wasn’t much time. There was nothing good about staying long. Beth will wait.
I looked over the other ornaments in the box, just in case, but didn’t see anything special.
As I gave up and left the door, I saw Dorothy with anxious eyes.
“…… Dorothy.”
“miss.”
“Protect Lady Elodie. …… The Marquis also takes good care of her. If there is anything strange about the mansion, be sure to memorize it and tell me later. now…… I can only say this for now. But later I… … .”
I paused for a moment, pouring out words like a rapid-fire gun.
I haven’t been able to say much since I’ve been back for a long time, can I just pour out my requests and leave like this?
But Dorothy nodded without hesitation.
“Yes.”
“…… thanks.”
I grabbed Dorothy’s hand once more and left.
As soon as they boarded the waiting wagon, the wagon departed. Beth had an anxious face.
“…… Will he and I be okay?”
It seemed that he couldn’t even say ‘Lady Elodie’ out of his mouth.
Looking at the driver’s eyes, he seemed to be worried about when the horse leaked out.
I lowered my eyes.
“How many people have gone missing in this case? If he had died, he would have come out as a corpse. I’m not in a hurry… … I just couldn’t find it, but everyone is safe.”
“Yeah, yes!”
Beth hurriedly ran to me.
Just like I’m not worried about Elodie, but everyone who’s missing in this case… … .
But how long will this last? Didn’t the queen come out right away, let us be together as if she was passing Princess Alogia, and then left?
Didn’t you guys stay together until you disappeared, if you overshadow your doubts?
It felt like my head was fading into white with nervousness.
I pretended to be out of balance as the carriage rattled, and put my head on Lady Beth’s shoulder, who was sitting opposite her.
Then he whispered, “Oh my gosh,” before the other made a startled voice.
“Listen to me, Lady Beth.”
“…….”
“We ran away as soon as we were attacked in the forest, and lost Lady Elodie and His Majesty the Princess. We don’t know anything that happened after that, or the disappearance of the two. okay?”
“Ha, but…….”
“If we make a mistake, everyone around us will die.”
As soon as she heard what I was saying, Beth sighed and took a deep breath.
“Ha, but Lady Elodie…….”
“We know, but others don’t.”
Who is the enemy?
Queen? grandee? Or both? Whose hand did the unbelievers come to hold?
I tried to sort out only the objective facts somehow.
Ophelia is related to Elodie.
Ophelia and Elodi are related to the goddess.
Unbelievers target Elodie.
However, there are enemies who attacked Elodie and the princess together in the forest.
As soon as the king opened his eyes, he pointed to Elodie as the culprit… … .
This part was weird. The king, who had fallen into a coma, as soon as he opened his eyes, declared that a noble young-ae was the culprit and ordered him to arrest him without any follow-up treatment?
Obviously Laertes must have been investigating. Did you not see or hear?
What can be deduced, is that Edmund Gloucester is not directly behind this?
When the king orders Elodi to come, Edmund can’t even touch him.
It’s only in the game, and it seems that he somehow legally detained himself in his house with excuses like this or that, but I can’t remember the details and, above all, Casio’s hand… … .
‘I thought Lady Emilia was a realist. A very rational person who only reaches out to what is possible. A person who cuts off a dream without a jaw and never looks back. But why? Are you upset that I didn’t act like a hero for everyone?’
…… it was
Casio then acted like it was strange for me to question him about what happened during the hunting competition. But in the end, he didn’t give an answer. The affirmation that ‘I have nothing to do with this’.
Did you know? If you know, how far?
He told me not to sacrifice for everyone, not to care. Wasn’t it like that in the first place, didn’t you care about anything other than Ophelia?
that…… It seemed serious.
A long time ago, when you came to my coffee house and enjoyed my reactions, I was sure to have eyes eager to see how far I could go.
It was the face that I expected to lust after and covet all the things of Marquis Windrose, with my eyes wide open at the things Ophelia left behind.
Rather, I was told not to worry about such things now, didn’t I try to pretend that I didn’t?
What’s even more surprising is the fact that they look pretty serious.
why? The more I run around and get unexpected results, the more fun he gets, doesn’t he?
Or is there something I must not know?
What to do? What can you do?
Politically, there is nothing you can do.
I made my debut based on the glory of the Brahmanduff family, and there is no reason to meddle with the Marquis of Windrose, whom I have no relationship with now. If you’re meddling, you’ll get a lot of suspicions.
Even if everyone who knows Elodi says that Elodi is not the one to curse the princess, if there is no evidence, it will be over.
Unless the princess wakes up and gives her testimony… … .
“uh?”
“Why, Emilia?”
“…… no. I just thought of something to do.”
“It’s really sincere to think about what to do in this situation. I was so nervous that I couldn’t even read the book I was reading.”
I smiled bewilderedly at Beth.
Laertes said he couldn’t predict when or how they would wake up. He said the treatment was the same.
However, protecting the two from the Marquis of Windrose is only a temporary measure.
Everyone knows that Elodie received the protection of Marquis Windrose. If you search for the king’s name, no one can stop you.
But finding the right place is the problem. A remote place, not far from the capital, and no doubt even if it is usually empty. Where no one will search.
There should be no direct relationship with the Marquis of Windrose.
It’s crazy to get Casio’s help, and Edmund is one of those people who ended up incarcerated over and over again, so it’s a bit odd to leave it to him.
“…… Should I even open the door to the Pee House?”
“Yes? Are you going to the townhouse?”
“Oh, yes, I’m going back to the townhouse.”
I glanced around at Beth, deep in thought.
…… Do I really have to open the door to my coffee house if I don’t really like it?
I laughed out loud at the thought that came to mind in an instant.
