The bad ending of an Otome game MTL - Chapter (95)
Episode 95
Even if Archduke Franz came to the capital alone in blood and blood, now is the season of the social world. It’s time to gather all the nobles in the capital. All kinds of invitations poured in.
The seat where Casio and Archduke Franz are now sitting alone was in the well-known Countess Kisha’s salon.
Mrs. Keisha, who was a major supporter of artists, has separated several rooms so that no one can hear anything they recite or play an instrument when they come out of the room.
Thanks to this, it was also used for secret talks in this way, contrary to its original purpose.
Well, it is highly likely that Countess Keisha also considered the purpose when designing the room in the first place.
“The queen must be in the mood to ask for a miracle from God to heal His Majesty the King.”
“Is that all? You should have known from the beginning that I was up. It was only today, almost a week later, that he called me.”
However, it would not be that the audience was allowed right away. He said that even his closest aides could not properly confirm the appearance of the king lying sick. Even if he died, he would have done his best to keep quiet.
In fact, Archduke Franz had two intentions.
1. Is the king still alive?
2. What is the Queen’s attitude?
It was worth taking a risk to check it out. Gasols were not brought with them for fear of being taken hostage.
“What is the dynamics of the Knights of Glamis?”
“It’s quiet.”
Archduke Franz’s forehead was cracked.
“It’s dangerous, it’s dangerous. You can’t just leave it neutral. The one with legitimacy now is the queen… … .”
“Nevertheless, I will not be hasty on the side of the Grand Duke. What are you going to do?”
“I learned that a knife that cannot be used is not greedy.”
Archduke Franz rubbed my chin.
“Of course, my father-in-law will support me, and the lords who are on my side will bring my enlisted men, but I should avoid situations where I might bump into the Knights of Glamis as much as possible. Or at least, we should get Marquis Windrose and Laertes Hope out of this situation.”
“You will need a suitable bait.”
“However, if you kidnapped a family member prematurely, it would be difficult to fix it later…….”
Casio Brahmanduff only smiled inexplicably in front of such Franz.
Seeing him like that, Archduke Franz wrinkled his face.
“Lord Casio, are you sure you’re not thinking nonsense? A double agent or something.”
“Please. How could I have thought of that unless I had two lives?”
“Your father?”
“Father, you always make a wise choice. I choose the best time to invest, and my father always believes in me.”
“Tt……. okay.”
“The current Marquis of Windrose, the Marquis, Laertes Hope, and a young lady named Elodie are staying.”
“Well?”
“Your Majesty the Grand Duke must have heard of it. This is the most famous flower in the social world. Lady Elodie. A young girl who immediately became a guest of a marquis writer as soon as she lived in Tokyo. She looks just like the dead Marquis Young-ae, and the Marquis’ wife says she loves her like her own daughter.”
“…….”
The Archduke blinked his eyes in contemplation.
“Even so, she’s not a real daughter, she’s just a person who looks a little bit like her. To get that much collateral… … .”
“There is no need to be obsessed with securing it from our side. All you need to do is to put on a suitable excuse to immobilize him until he clears his doubts. The big rice cakes that are neither mine nor the rest are, well… … . Wouldn’t it be better to get rid of them as soon as possible before they fall into someone else’s hands?”
Archduke Franz frowned.
“…… Hey, do you know what I’m talking about? I’m the deputy commander of the Glamis Knights, the Marquis of Windrose. The meat shop is too big to be treated carelessly.”
“It is the most coveted piece of meat for the Queen.”
“I heard that the princess’s partner eventually turned it down?”
“After all, the loyal subject of the Knights of Glamis is the king. Even if he was lying on a sick bed and unable to issue an order, if he suddenly regained consciousness and gave an order to his attendant, and then lost consciousness the next moment, how can the Knights Templar determine the truth of the order?”
In fact, it was one of the circumstances that Archduke Franz was most concerned about. The queen, who has run out of patience, somehow forcibly fabricates the king’s orders and strikes Archduke Franz first.
There is a possibility that the Knights of Glamis will protest, but we cannot be sure. It was a state in which they were fighting each other endlessly for legitimacy and cause.
It’s just the blindness of those who don’t want to work during the social season, when everyone is at their busiest.
Only belief remains.
Even if you see the wrong blood, the number of people who will be harmed increases exponentially.
“And in fact, a weakness is not a weakness when everyone knows it is a weakness.”
“What do you mean?”
“You say your Majesty the Queen is more terrible than anyone in the escort of the Prince and His Majesty? He said that he chose only those whom he could trust, even his parents, brothers, and grandparents. I heard that even if they were close friends, they had a strong security so that they could not be touched.”
“therefore? Does that mean that everything will be easy if you just kill that little child?”
“It means that Her Majesty the Queen did not believe even Her Majesty the Princess.”
Suspicion is what it is If I don’t believe in myself, I get caught up in the belief that others will too.
Surely it would be better to doubt anything after putting the throne in front of it.
Casio Brahmanduff spit out words that were different from the thoughts he had hidden inside him.
The real weakness of the Marquis Windrose that he knows is another. In my mansion, I even enshrined them.
Even in the face of a crisis, he does not run away recklessly in fear, and he does not consider himself to be the weakness of the Marquis Windrose, so there is no doubt about himself. If I’d rather doubt the other, I don’t know.
“It is foolish to dare to aim for the opponent that everyone is aiming for. We have to ignore it somehow and wait until we have a chance or find another way.”
Casio Brahmanduff laughed. It was as cold as winter and as humid as summer.

After the tea party at the Royal Palace, there are several changes that have occurred to me.
“This is a letter from the Marquis of Windrose.”
“…….”
The first is that an unexpected letter has arrived.
I looked at the letter that Mrs. Nellie politely sent me with a chewing face.
The name is as follows.
‘The guest, Elodie Dienta, who lives in the Marquis’ residence, favored by the Marquis of Windrose.’
What are we going to do now?
Aren’t we good enough to play as friends?
Seeing Kitty startled at my sullen face, I calmly straightened my expression.
‘Are you afraid that if you keep me close, your memories of Lady Ophelia will be clouded because of me?’
I remembered her face as she looked at me and spoke upright, even with her crying eyes. Originally, was the player like this?
The face that was transparent like a glass lily and smiled like a chill was familiar. But, that was all.
Wasn’t he the type of person who obviously had a reason to avoid himself and approached him while putting pressure on him?
A subtle sense of discomfort arose out of nowhere. I turned my head, deliberately ignoring my doubts. Another letter lay on the tray.
“And this is a letter from the Earl of Gloucester.”
After returning from the tea party, I had sent a short letter to the Earl of Gloucester stating the time and place. It was a reply that came back like a knife right away.
When I opened the letter, I saw what was written in a beautiful cursive. few lines
‘I will meet you on the day the Lady has designated me. blah blah…….’
It was just as expected. The content was mixed with appropriate pretentiousness and pretentiousness, but nothing more or less.
“And this is a letter from Baron Heath.”
However, the name belongs to ‘Young-ae, Count of Beth’. The young girl next to me at the royal palace tea party and asked about the novel about Amy.
He complained that it was difficult to talk to the young girls who had gathered in a group, and then he sent me a letter as soon as they were afraid to part.
He didn’t seem like a bad person, so there’s nothing wrong with interacting.
Looking at the contents, it was a fun time after a while, and there was a short message saying that we would meet and exchange often in the future.
And second.
“And this is my present, Lady Emilia.”
“…….”
…… Casio Brahmanduff’s futures offensive has increased.
I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but it seems strangely after Laertes gave me an amethyst necklace… … .
I made an indescribable expression to the man who was smiling brightly.
Mrs. Nellie, the skilled maid, was noticing that she moved away from us. Kitty also crawled after her.
Yes, but still, you are the noble master of this mansion, but it’s a bit harsh for me to say nasty things in front of the user.
I glanced at the two of them and lifted the box that Casio had brazenly shoved between the letters.
The box, covered in black velvet, was the size of the palm of my hand. When I opened the lid, the first thing that caught my eye was a bright red color. It was a red flower the size of a quail egg.
It wasn’t a fresh flower, but ruby or garnet was crafted as thinly as petals one by one, and it was a beautiful thing as if they were stacked on top of each other.
As I was about to stand still, Casio reached out and took the flower out of the box.
Look, it was a ring. Behind the flower, a slender silver ring could be seen shining bright red.
“It’s a ring that you put on your little finger.”
“How do I know the size of my little finger……. No, I won’t ask.”
I shook my head, thinking it was such a stupid question. But Casio, who didn’t rush through these words, responded like a fool.
“I’m sorry, Emilia. Of course, there was a record of ordering gloves, so it was easy to find out.”
“Yes. It would be.”
“But, how many times have you held Lady Emilia’s hand? You can tell just by the feel of it in your hand.”
