Even Though I was the Real Saint, I was Exiled—Which Means my Country is Over (WN)

"Hey, what are you guys!?" Who the hell do you think I am? You think you can do this rude imitation for free! "

"Yes, yes, you don't know who I am?" Just be quiet, okay? "

Maria took a few knights and boarded the Ulmamoz Chamber of Commerce.

(I can't believe it's going to be so easy... I wonder if the Chamber of Commerce is going to cut this child off as well.)

Initially, I was expecting to be turned down for a conversation with Franz. Because it is a Chamber of Commerce with so much power.

But it wasn't.

After explaining the situation, he briefly guided me to this room. Too much beating, so much surprise.

(I wonder if this child originally had many enemies in the Chamber of Commerce. So if you're going to be so hostile to me, let's just get Franz out of here. However, it's convenient for us.)

Maria quickly closes her distance from Franz and asks:

"You gave Nigel the stuffed animals of Eliane and Cecilie." I'd like to ask you a few questions about that. "

"......!"

Franz's shoulders are twitching.

The reaction convinced Maria that he knew something.

"And I was thinking of selling it as a new product." So I tried to get permission to go to Nigel in the old Tutte. Isn't there anything strange about it? "

"That's all. But strangely enough, Eliane and Cecilie just disappeared." That's why this stuffed animal is involved in something..... "

"It's gone...?" Oh, that's not me! I didn't know stuffed animals had such an effect..... "

"You want to tell me you didn't── know it would work?" You know something after all. "

"...... Tch!"

Franz tongues.

But no more, he won't open his mouth.

(Honestly, I can't take much time. I didn't want to imitate you.....)

Maria draws her sword.

"What, what!? Are you going to kill me?" If you do that, the truth is forever in the darkness.── "

──Maria paid him with her sword before Franz tried to keep on saying that.

This separates Franz's set hairstyle.

Only the lower half was left, and it looked strange.

"Phew..."

“I'm not going to kill you. But I don't like my hairstyle. That's why I'll give you a haircut.── There's a good chance you're going crazy."

As Maria threatens, Franz's face turns pale as she sees it.

"I understand, so please don't...!" I'll tell you everything! "

(Hmm, you don't even have the courage to pass the ground, but you don't look great)

and Maria vomit evil in her heart, and then move her mouth like this.

"So... where did Eliane and Cecily go?"

"I-I don't know that!" It's just... that stuffed animal has a curse on it, and I heard that the owner is getting worse! If you give me the stuffed animal of Eliane, I'm sure Nigel will decorate his room somehow.... "

Is it true?

"Oh, it's true! Trust me!"

The words from Franz were slightly different from Maria's predictions.

(I'm not lying to you like this...? No, that's not true.....)

Maria's expression continued unchanged, confused in her heart.

"I forgot to ask Nigel about it... you didn't make this stuffed animal, did you?"

"I-I can't possibly make such a filthy thing!?" It was made by a puppeteer named Yol, who I hired. "

"Where's the puppeteer...?"

"... I haven't seen you since last night. Where is he at such an important time....."

and Franz make up a strange look.

"That Yolu girl is the mastermind." So, what the hell is she thinking about doing? "

"I-I don't know. It's just..."

Franz turned his gaze upwards to remember something and continued.

"I didn't ask why, but he said he hated others. That's why I lent a hand and tried to discredit── Nigel. When I heard that story, I thought... maybe he was trying to wipe out someone other than himself? I don't think I can do that...."

(What do you mean...?)

Franz gets more and more confused.

But I don't think that Franz knows any more about Joel's motives, and I don't have time to question them here.

"I'll sort it out. The effect of the stuffed animal you know is to make the owner sick." The puppeteer who made the stuffed animal is now missing. I didn't know that someone had the── effect of disappearing. "

"Oh, oh! Trust me!"

"Well, even if you let me hear about that later... anyway, you knew that stuffed animal wasn't just a stuffed animal, right?" Why did you give it to Nigel? "

…………

At first, Franz closed his mouth and said nothing.

But Maria thought that she would stick the tip of the sword, and she said:

"──Nigel was always a nuisance to me." If it hadn't been for him, I would have been at the top of my class.

He always stands in my way. [M] Even these days. I'm frustrated about him, so my business doesn't turn out well.

I'm not that bad, am I? It's all Nigel's fault! He looks cool and always takes only delicious things with him. Just because you're a prince...! That's why I..... "

”Haa... you're too blind to see people.”

In Maria's eyes, the feeling of pity was greater than the anger.

"You're old enough to be an executive at the Ulmamoz Chamber of Commerce." You've made an effort, haven't you? You must be good. But── why do you compare yourself to people? "

Maria continues further, as if she were making a mistake.

"What have you been seeing about Nigel?" Don't you know how much she suffered and built up her current position? While everyone was asleep, she woke up to study. Even when I was about to go around with my whole body muscle pain, I participated in the training without showing any gestures like that. "

Maria used to see Nigel like that.

And the other royals and lords, too.

Nigel is superior, so he's not admired by everyone.

I could have worked harder than anyone, so I will try to follow him.

I'm not just a person who sits on the throne of being a prince and fails in my efforts.

"Ever since she was a student, she's been talking about you as a friend. You know, she was bragging about you. He's amazing. I'm not a merchant. [M] I──'m proud to have such a friend."

"...... I didn't think of that.──"

"Do you think Nigel can tell a lie like that? Then you're an idiot after all."

But it's not uncommon for a man like this to be.

Nigel is the light. Half of it, where there is light, there is darkness.

"To tell you the truth, this child is a dark part born of such light."

I'm glad I came──.

That's what Maria thought.

"You guys are looking for that girl called Yol." Maybe we're still close. "

Maria directs a few of her men to look at Franz again.

"I'll let you hear a lot of stories from now on." I like good-looking men who look like you. I'll tell you what, but I don't have the right to veto it. "

No, let go!

It was Franz who cried out, but Maria took him to the castle unwillingly.
