The Villainous Daughter’s Butler ~I Raised Her to be Very Cute~
of light and darkness spread over the gossip king capital...... 2
From butler's clothes to personal clothes - although not noble, I was waiting for someone who was the son of a house of origin (this boy said it was good).
The city square is vibrant just after noon. Some of the people I go out with see a lot of shoppers with parents and children, and I have a smile on their faces.
It would be proof of looseness in civilian life.
But where there is light, there are shadows again. It is a theme in the Espressivo of light and darkness and a sad reality for this world.
Of course, I'm not going to deny it all.
Like the Dark Alliance, there is also a necessary shadow for this country. If you put it in a slight way, there are also those who cannot live in the light.
It is my conclusion that there are exceptions to everything, but exceptions exist to that exception as well. Whatever that is - and apparently a waiting person has arrived.
A woman approaching me unexpectedly tangles her arms.
"Heh heh heh heh"
What was whispered in my ear was a glossy voice.
Turning her gaze, the red-haired beauty was smiling. A floral actress belonging to one of the city's leading troupes, she is the disguised figure of Isabella, who also became my informant.
"No, I'm sorry to call you so suddenly."
She told me that she had heard stories from fans that concerned her. This organization lurking in the shadows of Rondbel has caught the eye of Lady Sophia.
The truth of the matter is unknown, and the Dark Alliance did not have that information either.
It is therefore likely that it will be demanding, but if it were true, the damage would be done to Lady Sophia. Therefore, he called Isabella to confirm the authenticity of his information.
So I was going to answer that I didn't need to worry about it a little late, but she looked somewhere uninteresting.
"The selling actress gave you a hug, but get a little upset."
"Unfortunately, beautiful women are used to seeing"
Sophia, there's Alicia for the lady, plus Fol and the beautiful girl. Beauty is relatively rare, but the material is not bad if you keep your mouth shut around Rouchet as well.
By the way, women are not the only ones who are beautiful - or more men. That would be something like the world of maiden games.
What a thought, I realized Isabella was also thinking about it.
"... what's wrong?
"I'm honored to have been classified as a beauty, but also because I felt like I was being treated like a beauty in line. I was wondering if I should thank you or be angry."
I put up much more with wanting to sigh when it doesn't matter. Woman - I guess it's an issue that cannot be ignored, especially for the current and occasional actress.
"Each one has a different look of its own type, so you can't help thinking about it?
"Then who do you think is more beautiful, me or Lady Sophia?
"... I have no taste in hurting women."
"That's what you're answering, isn't it? No, I know, so it's good."
I was reincarnated when I was a student, so my preferences are strongly influenced by those days. I was fine with the kind of food my kids don't like, for example, and drinking tea straight is an influence of my previous life.
In that sense...... well, that doesn't matter.
"More than that, could you tell us more about this information?
"Oh, you did. It's not here, so can we just walk?
Of course not.
She's a famous actress, even though she's disguised, and we can't stand out to each other much. So I started walking, but she kept her arms tangled in me.
"... it's hard to walk?
"Look, you don't look so dissatisfied. Pretending to ruin your shopping with your sweet sister and your sweet little brother, right?
"... can you see it"
It's just that I don't look like a couple because I'm about twenty and thirteen, but I feel very subtle when asked if I look like my sister or brother.
... No, I might have a brother who swings by his free-running sister.
"Something rude on your mind?
"No, can you give me more information than that?
Ask as you walk down the boulevard. While talking important stories, don't forget to pretend to be casual conversations while shopping.
Isabella would be better at acting around there than I am.
"It was my patron who got the information first. So basically, I can't tell you who told me. You'll understand that, won't you?
I snort. A patron, as we call it here, is the patron of Isabella, an actress. In other words, they are a lot of people, starring Isabella, the actress.
By selling patrons therefore, I also mean breaking my scaffolding. It's natural for her to put up a line of prevention if she can't sell the source.
At the same time, she added the words "basically."
To dare say such words can be accepted as a sign of intent to side with Lady Sophia if they are clearly hostile to her.
In other words, if there was a price, such as preparing a replacement patron, she would sell the source. But then there could be a rumor spread that Isabella sold the patrons.
Given that we will continue to draw information, I would like to keep it as a last resort, if possible.
"Naturally, we have an alternative, don't we?
To my inquiry, she had a glossy grin.
"That's the butler who leans on the Virgin."
"... what is it, it"
Sophia, I know your daughter is called the Virgin, but Deacon? With that said, I've heard that story before.
"They say it's rumored in the social world. But that was the end of the story."
Isabella said she turned the cultural festival story into a patron.
Aristocrats - if that also assumed the acting instruction of the Marquis Ladies, it would be foiled. To say that you hide it is to be taken as an obnoxious thing.
From that judgment, she's not hiding anything but being like my informant.
Well...... you're right.
Those who become her patrons are likely to even know that Isabella gave acting instruction, not to mention the theatre at the school's cultural festival.
"So what did you hear?
"The only thing he told me was that they saw Lady Sophia, too."
"From him, is it?
To my inquiry, Isabella smiled.
"Yes. The guy seemed to feel his mouth slip and he didn't talk to me any more. So instead of asking, I tried to talk to the other patrons. And then..."
They said the other patrons knew the story.
And Isabella relied on the information she pulled from other patrons to talk to each other as if she knew the story, cunningly pulling out the information, she said.
- As a result, they got information that Frau's puppeteer had an eye on Lady Sophia.
"Frau's puppeteer... is that some kind of hidden language?
"You can't deny it. In the dark, there are no substitutes for magic that breaks people's hearts. You're a puppeteer because you've mastered that magic... and you can't deny it, can you?
"No way......"
It's not a word I thought was impossible. In the dark part in the Espressivo of light and darkness, the presence of such sorcery was indeed suggested.
It is a contraindication that a dark fallen Sophia lady tried to get her hands on a certain route.
"Do you know anything about Cyril?
"I've heard rumors. I haven't grasped it until it's real... but if such magic really exists, you can never let it go wild."
Not to mention, Sophia, if it's true that you're after a lady, you can never leave her alone.
"I thought I'd say that, and I've got a code to make contact with Frau's puppeteer."
"... That's right, you're excellent"
The opponents are strong enough to be patrons. Just because you're close doesn't make it so easy to slip your mouth. We gathered information from them, and we went as far as to ask for the codes.
Did I just say I played comrade in front of the patron -?
"Oh, maybe you're scared of me? He said he might just be playing your side."
"... No, I'm not afraid of that now."
Because you haven't ruled out that possibility from the start - and of course you don't. Now, Sophia, I can understand exactly how Libert felt when he was vigilant about the lady.
But at the same time, I'm not going to put it on hold or unnecessarily doubt her.
"I've decided to trust you and use it."
"Pfft, you look like a man. Busy with your kids."
He's going to hug me.
It stands out as much as you want because it's what you do in the middle of the boulevard. Even if someone was watching over us, they'd just look like they were hanging out.
Understandably, it works in that regard.
"... why don't you just leave that to tease me?
"Well, she (...) doesn't seem to get the joke"
Isabella laughed couscous and finally let go of my arm. I feel like I lost it late, but I can't move when I have to keep my arms together, so I could say I was helpful in that sense.
"So, do you know who uses the codes?
"Unfortunately. There are a few candidates out there."
Apparently, it's one of those candidates on their way.
"If that's the case, you could have just had the information, right?
"Oh, don't you need an actress who's good at acting?
"That's not true...... ok, please"
If we make a mistake, we risk the fact that Isabella leaked information about the patron to the bright light. I was worried about that... she looks woven.
Rather than shy away here, it would be fortunate to respond in the form of a reward.
For that reason, the first one I came to was a shop with all the accessories for women on the main street. The showcase is made of glass that is transparent and large, from which the height of the format can be raised.
It is intended for the wealthy members of the civilian population, but seems to have enough common character to be a lower nobleman.
Thinking of it that way, a man came from the back looking like a manager with a calm atmosphere.
"Welcome, what would you like?
"The doll of light and darkness."
"... well, puppets of light and darkness, is it?
If the correct coder returns "I'm afraid to make that doll or something" for "The Doll of Light and Darkness," I hear there's a puppeteer who can make that possible? 'and continue.
They don't seem to know the codes...
"No, it's nothing. I don't have any particular purpose, so could you show me a little?
"Yes, I did. Call me if you need anything."
Me and Isabella say that and look around at the sale for a while.
This store was one of Isabella's candidate places to use her eye-catching codes. Isabella's competence need not be questioned any more now. If you think about it, it's not necessarily that this store is completely irrelevant.
For example, if, in fact, this store was clammy, but the code was used incorrectly, or the code in the first place, it was a decoy to blur out the traitor - there is no denying the possibility. That's what I think, and for a while I decide to look at the sale and see how the store manager is doing.
By the way, the accessories in this store are quite tasteful. The material is not far from the primary product, but the design itself is indistinguishable as a primary product.
That's right, I found a blue costume with an elephant rose when I watched as there was just something about setting up a shop on the main street of Wang Du.
"... blue rose costume?
"A blue rose accessory representing the royal family is popular with celebrities. Of course, it's an exclusive design that obviously shows even flower making."
"I see..."
Red roses representing the Marquis Rosenberg family are also usually out there. The blue rose only exists in the royal castle, so things are different, but if you don't fake the real thing, it's fine, I would have just said.
I raised my hand and called in the manager who was eager to see how this was going.
I went around the candidate's store after that, but I couldn't use the codes in any of the stores. Isabella, who was confident at first, but dropped her shoulder when she found out the last one was off.
"Apparently it was a demma. I'm sorry, you've wasted my legs."
"No, you don't have to worry about it. Because it's important to be honest with a lot of information like this. You can't just cut it off and throw it away and miss the confused truth."
If you have any information, don't be afraid to report it, and she showed something to think about.
"Cut and throw away as demanding and miss the confused truth...... maybe"
"Something seems to come to mind."
That's what her eyes, with her face up, told the story.
"Actually, there's a place I've been unconsciously removing from the candidate that I couldn't have done that from the beginning."
"I see, is it a theater"
When I immediately hit the match, Isabella opened her eyes in a circle.
"Duh, how did you know?
"You take pride in your theatre. If you remove a candidate for the reason that it can't be, then nature and purpose will be narrowed down."
First of all, the troupe to which she belongs herself. But if your troupe is involved, you just can't be unaware. If you think about it, the theaters used by the various troupes are more suspicious.
"... that's right. What I thought was suspicious was the theater in the square. It's impossible if I think about it normally, but they talked like I know the place naturally..."
"If you're a stage actress, you know the stage."
With that in mind, I'm also convinced that the first one accidentally zeroed the information. If Isabella belonged to the troupe, she would have slipped her mouth thinking she knew.
Of course, at the moment, it's hypothetical.
"You're going to need to go. But... what do you want to do? Isn't Isabella better off not accompanying you?
Even if the theater is evil, for example, if revealing it would negatively affect the troupe, Isabella could be exposed to rear fingers.
I cared that way, but she said she would not hesitate to accompany her. After all, I guess theatre is something special to her.
With a certain readiness, I decided to head to a theater in the square.
