I Favor the Villainess

96. Vengeance and ideals

"... I didn't know you knew that much."

Ha-ha-ha. Ara had a dry grin.

"I have no idea what's going on. Explain it, Ray."

"Li, I want you to tell me Li Li too"

That said, I didn't explain anything to the two of you.

"Is Ara explaining?

"No, let me give you an answer match for once. You talk."

Arla said to match the answers, but it seemed to me she hated talking in her own mouth.

"Then I will. First of all, as I just said, Arla is Arla-Manuel, the old Manuel family maid who was a favorite of Master Saras."

"Speaking of the Manuel family, it's the Count family that fell about ten years ago, isn't it?

That's right, Master Claire seems to be holding things back around here.

"Master K, Claire, are you familiar with this?

"For nobles, family names, titles, and the power map of each house is a basic upbringing, isn't it?

"Oh, really?"

Both Claire and Lily must be upper class people, but maybe these places are the difference between pure aristocracy and religious people.

Perhaps Lily is simply oblivious to public opinion.

"Count Manuel was a nobleman of good character. His father said he was the Earl, but he was liked by many because of his honest work."

"Well, that's better, how did you fall?

"That's similar to this one. He said he did some unauthorized accounting."

"Is that fraudulent accounting!

Ara raised her sharp voice.

He looks like he regrets what he put out in his mouth, unexpectedly.

Master Claire seemed surprised for a moment by Ara's shout, but continued ahead.

"When Count Manuel's injustice came to light, he said it was a big scandal. Why is that personable person?"

"In fact, Master Suras put me up to it. Count Manuel was responsible for one stick of Mr. Sarus' unauthorized accountant, which was in the lizard's tail cut."

"Well, that's similar to this one, too"

Master Lily continued, though.

"So, but how could such a former aristocratic daughter be so... er, resistance? Is that what you're doing?

"I can only imagine the psychology around here, but perhaps Master Suras - and hence his resentment of the aristocratic community"

Different, when I ask,

"Exactly"

Ara answered in a low voice.

"My father was a kind and honest man. Many nobles relied on their father. But my father was despised."

Ara told me to spit blood.

"Being set on Suras, the other nobles who were around my father abandoned my father lightly. Such a world, being itself unacceptable"

"Is that Ara's starting point?"

To my inquiry, Ara nodded deeply.

"We're not going to have any revenge, are we?

"Don't slap your mouth like you found out, little girl. It means nothing to the Avenger, such as productivity. All I want is the blood of the nobles."

With that said, Ara had a bottom-cold, comatose grin.

Arla is the flag of the revolution, but what underlies it is not justice or philosophy, but vengeance.

"Of course, from you, I guess it sounds like a worldless idealism, such as what I say. But I don't want to abandon my ideals."

It's not that Master Claire or Ara are right.

Both are right, and both are wrong.

As inseparable as the dichotomy between righteousness and evil is in this world, if you're an adult - even a child knows if you're sensitive.

That said, of course, the theoretical armed is in charge of my brother, as there is no way that people follow the resistance solely with vengeance.

"What about Mr. Irvine?

"Do you even know about my brother? That guy's got a golden plan. We don't have enough money."

Irvine, Arla's brother, is the Resistance's staff officer and vault number.

Ara is the soul and Arvine is the brains.

revolution revolutions around these two.

"You're going to put the story back. That's why I think Ara heard from your father that you have reason to believe that Master Suras is hiding evidence of unrighteousness. What do you say?

I came here to ask this question.

Even though there are scenarios for exploring evidence of Suras' wrongdoing, the storage of that evidence is random.

That random flag is confirmed by the contact event with this resistance.

"Money first. We have to get the money. Oh, we're not gonna talk."

"I guarantee you the money. Transfers are made by the usual means from“ XX ""

"!? You were XX!?

XX is a mysterious patron who always makes huge donations to Irvine.

I'm not who I am.

At the time Irvine's name came out, I wonder if some of them had come to the right place.

"It's not me. But I hope you think it's inside you."

"... Unless you're inside XX. I'll talk to you."

Ugh, Ara took a breath before opening her mouth again.

"Probably a safe in the office. But I can't open that safe to anyone but Suras."

That was a waste of time, Ara laughs.

"Is it a safe? Thank you."

"Hey, wait a minute! So this is what this is all about? This man knew where the evidence was, but he didn't know how to open the safe, did he?

"Heh, you're back in the shake...?

Ladies Claire and Lily raise their voices in protest.

"No, that's enough"

"Hey, Ray! Are you sure?!?

"It's okay, Master Claire. If you know if there's any evidence, you can do something about it."

"... do you believe that?

"Yeah, I was gonna take a big boat."

I don't need you here anymore.

Master Claire is going to explode, and Master Lily is scared, so it's time to put it off.

And when I thought,

"Ray-Taylor. You, aren't you going to join the resistance?

Ara asked me that.

"What a fool! I don't need to be asked! The answer is no!

"I'm asking Ray-Taylor."

"My words are Ray's!

"Fair enough, Master Claire. That kind of delle would be nice if we had a little more atmosphere."

"I'm not kidding!

And then I turned to Ara after I deceived Master Claire, who said something.

"And my answer is no."

"Why? Oh, is it right for you, the nobleman, to live a life of luxury?

"No, it's not"

"Then..."

Hand blocked Arla trying to keep the word going, and I went on.

"Because everything about me belongs to Master Claire. Unless Claire wants to revolutionize us."

"... Ray"

Smile as if Master Claire was relieved.

I want to stroke.

"Right...... You're gonna regret this?

"I won't."

Well, then, say goodbye, and we left the Resistance aside.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"... in the end, it's not stuck."

"Duh, what shall we do..."

Ladies Claire and Lily have such faculties as depression.

"That's not true. If the location of the evidence is confirmed, we can do as much later as we want."

"What are you going to do?

That's...

"It's King's Sovereignty."
