Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Episode 522: Sidi, Analyzing Vieille

"... Sidi, what's up?

She gives me a hazy look in my voice. I've never seen a Sidi like this before.

"Uh... excuse me"

Sidi hugged me as I blushed. This is our mansion bedroom.

After being guided by Vieille, they assigned their respective rooms and carried their luggage in. And after a fancy dinner, everyone decided to pull up to their room early because of their journey and tiredness. Naturally, we return to the Imperial Mansion in the Transition Realm. But Mae, the three of us with Roni and Chiwan, said we'd have a meeting tomorrow and said we'd stay in the room for a while. I had no choice, so I told him to move to the mansion as soon as I finished the meeting, and Sidi and I left first.

But when I got back to the mansion, things went wrong with Sidi this time. It's kind of boisterous all the time, and even when we talk, it's up in the sky. This has never happened before.

I got up from the bath and headed to the bedroom, and Sidi was there. He stares at the ceiling flashly as he leans on his back. For a moment, I hesitated to go into bed, but with a little care, I decided to go into bed too.

Usually, when I get into bed, Sidi holds hands, but no matter how long I wait this day, it doesn't. When I peered into my face wondering if I'd slept properly, I realized for the first time that I existed. Really, she was so focused that she didn't even realize I was next door.

"From now on, what are you thinking?

"... Ugh, the"

"Yeah?"

"Um, it's about Mr. Vieille."

"Vieille? What happened to Vieille?

"I feel a strange gaze."

"Weird gaze?

"I don't know what to say... the... observed... I just feel the gaze of hatred, along with the gaze of being observed in an intrigue."

"Hate gaze?

"Yes...... Until now, I've often felt like I was being looked at with interest, but this time, I feel a complicated gaze at what it's called."

"Right...... Though he wasn't caught up in my detection. Well, it's about Vieille. Though it is possible that you are equipped with a magic item that will slip through my detection. Wait... Then there's May... Oh, he's coming back to the mansion properly. You're taking a bath. It's okay."

At that time, Sidi softly joins hands. I shake that hand back gently, too.

"If you want to observe us, your nostalgia...... In other words, I know that you invite us to the temple of the Pope. However, if you have feelings of hatred, I don't think you can go where you live."

"Why not? Though I think the means of putting them in my territory and exhausting them would be effective, rather if they were haters?

"No. Because of Mr. Vieille's character, I don't think he will. He's a strong offender when someone he hates enters his territory."

"Is that what it is?

"I felt that strongly, especially this time. Maybe that person's position reinforces that sentiment."

"So, Sidi was wondering why Vieille had invited us to her residence, which she hated."

"Yes... because it's something I couldn't really explain... That one is someone who doesn't do anything to misread the opponent's fighting power. It is visible that we fail where we have attacked Master Linos and us. So, rather, I think it is our intention this time to take an interest in one woman named Vieille, so to speak, who boasts to us of your excellence. I'm sure of that."

"Then I can't explain the gaze of hate..."

Sidi snorts slowly at my words.

"I wonder what Vieille is thinking"

"It's just..."

"Just what, Sidi?

"Intuitively, I feel like this Society is going to end in peace. And I don't think there's any harm done to us, Mr. Linos or Mae."

Well, don't worry about it.

"That's right...... I knew it..."

"Do you care?

"Yes......"

"Well, let's change our mood a little."

That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna grab Sidi. She is blushing, closing her eyes.

"Or do you want to get some sleep tonight?

To my words, she shook her face in small pieces.

Slowly, I take off the pajamas she's wearing. This is the usual, too, but Sidi never takes her clothes off herself. I never dare ask, but the only one of my wives who has never taken her clothes off herself is Sidi.

In an instant, she turned out to be cluttered. At that time, Sidi whines in a small voice.

"... sorry"

"Yeah? What's up?

"With such a body..."

"What now... I love Sidi's body."

"Ugh..."

"I don't know... you're the best person to hold me. You mean everything will fit nicely in my arms... Sidi?

If you look closely, Sidi's body is shaking in small pieces. And his face is dyed bright red.

"Sorry.... Shall I turn off the lights"

Siddie nodded slowly. Sidi didn't quite let me go this night. You've been holding me for a long time. She made a plethora of claims, barely expressing herself on these occasions. I hugged her hard, loving Sidi like that.

Around the same time, in a room of the Pope's Temple, Vieille had some sort of meeting with several cardinals.

"His Holiness the Pope...... well, that's too..."

One cardinal raised his voice of surprise. Vieille looks at his expression like that with naughty eyes.

"Is there a problem?

"The fact that His Holiness the Pope constantly exposes his back..."

"Shouldn't you?

"Damn...... there are some security conveniences as well. If they attack you..."

"Oh? Who could have said you were laying down a full security posture so you wouldn't have to worry about that?

To the voice of Vieille, the Cardinal bows his head as he roars.

"Wait, His Holiness the Pope"

Another Cardinal opens his mouth. Vieille turns her gaze to the man suddenly.

"Cardinal Ryagart may also be called to order."

……

"The security system that Cardinal Ryagart has in mind is adequate. But with the Pope's Holiness constantly exposed to his back, there is no time for Cardinal Ryagart to rest his mind. That is the same for us. I am sincerely afraid that, under the Holiness of the Pope, I ask you to keep an eye on the evolution of the Society here".

The Cardinal slowly points on the desk. There was a plan for the Society to take place the day after tomorrow. Vieille had been looking at the drawing for a while, but eventually, she pointed to a place.

"Now, here I am, to see how the Society is doing"

What she pointed to was the seat at the back of the seat.

"Here you can see the whole of the Society. Besides... I would never expose my back to anyone. Though I think your concern will be much less than the first seat I initially hoped for?

……

The Cardinals are looking at each other. Vieille looks at them with such a satisfying look on their face.

"Sitting behind the presenter can't really look at the whole thing. Besides... this seat was seated by the previous Pope... I don't want to sit in a seat where a chunk of that stuff was sitting. I always want to be with the faithful."

There was nothing to contest Vieille's words, no one.
