"Come on, Cornelia!
Cornelia Alway only turned her gaze fed up with her brother Linus Norland yelling.
A few days ago, even though he hired even an assassination group to target the lives of Hannellone Alway and Olivier Alway, all the plans were destroyed by just one sorcerer.
My daughter, who joined Olivier in the plan to burn confrontation, runs into her truncated home, but every day she can turn her gaze to see anything abominable without welcoming herself as anyone but her father.
I didn't like that gaze, I couldn't stand it as if I was being blamed for doing something wrong, I locked myself in my room and tried not to see anyone but my father, but Cornelia's mood sucks instantly because only today my brother was forced into the room.
"You think you're going to be in a better position by continuing with Cage Castle like this?
"... isn't your father supposed to be talking to your husband?
Replying with your back to your brother returns a grand sigh.
"Think of my father no more."
"What?
When I remembered my doubts and looked back, my brother was staring at me with a look that made me cohabit with a grudge and anger.
"Originally my father was sweet on you, but I can't believe he took refuge in you for Master Hannellone's life. Of the Duke's house. What are you thinking about, killing his daughter?
"What happened to your father?!
"Your father is sick. Get cured until the illness is cured. Lord I will continue."
"I'm not allowed to do that on my own."
"I just don't want you to tell me! You understand how dangerous my Count Noland family is in this position because of what you've done!
Cornelia's momentum is killed by his brother's anger.
Unexpectedly, he mouths and bites his lips off with remorse.
"Your side is gone. But I'm also my brother. I don't want to cut you off. I gave the Duke a reprieve to bow his head and persuade you."
"Ha. I won't be persuaded."
"What about the children I've left at the Duke's house!
"Tobias is the eldest son of the Duke of Alway family! My son, who should succeed the governor, can't possibly be made worse!
It is natural for the eldest son to succeed the governor if nobility is not so foolish or infirm.
But her husband has never affirmed Tobias as his successor, even as a candidate. That's also why I ran Cornelia for murder.
But she has no reason to know that if we correct the original, it is the biggest reason why Tobias was not nominated as his successor because Cornelia does not deserve to be the mother of the next Duke.
All that was bad for her was her husband and Hannellone.
"If you ever behave like that, they'll take tough action."
"If you can do something, you can try. That guy can't have the guts to start a civil war. No matter how much the Duke's house, if you hit the Norland private soldiers,"
"I won't let that happen."
"Why not!
"There is no such thing as the option of fighting the Duke's house from the beginning. You can't lose a soldier in your selfish service to my clan."
"You take more soldiers than I do!
"Everyone does the same thing. Fighting to shelter you, the sinner, will not extinguish your sins. Above all, if we fight the Duke's house, we won't have hands or feet."
My brother's body trembles.
Cornelia doesn't understand why you're so afraid.
No matter how strong the Duke's family holds, it can't be that they don't have hands or feet. Assuming the Duke family tries to gather so much power, there is no way the state will recognize it.
"What is your brother afraid of?
"... well. You didn't know. You know Olivier's fiancée, right?
"Yeah, nasty enough"
Hate man who interrupted Cornelia's plan - Jared Murphy. Had it not been for him, both Hannellone and Olivier would have died by now.
I think of a boy who doesn't even know his abominable face and bites his lips off.
"It has been decided that he will become a court magician"
"What?
For a moment, I thought my brother was joking. But Linus' expression was still so serious that his brother, who would be in the second half of the forty but with a youthful appearance, looked old.
"Listen carefully. There was a recent case in which a candidate for court magician, excluding him, was murdered and court magician, Lady Tres Brawell, was attacked. It was Jared Murphy, Olivier's fiancée, who defeated the killer and closed the case."
"You're lying."
I knew Olivier's fiancée was a good sorcerer and candidate for court sorcerer. That's why I didn't hesitate to be my daughter's fiancée when Emilia wanted to.
His status is lower than that of the eldest son of the Baron's family, but he is at a point where he is a candidate for court magician and he is safe in the future. If you are no longer a nobleman and you are a magician, you will not have trouble eating. Worst case scenario, we just have to take it in as a family hug.
"That man did get in my way, but he said he really had the strength to just be a court magician? I thought I used the power of the Duke's house to become a candidate..."
"Not everyone is like you. For a long time you've used your father's power if there's anything you don't like, and you've solved it with gold. Even when I became a sideroom for my childhood friend, the Duke of Alway, I said that the story went well because Master Hannellone cooperated with me, so why did I do stupid things like aim for my life!
"If it weren't for that woman, I'd have been in the right room!
"... you're still an idiot, Cornelia. You only see what you want to see the same as you used to, and you only ask what you want to hear. Master Hannellone and the Duke have long been compassionate. Everyone knows. Besides, someone else would have been in the normal room without that one. You can't do this."
There's anger in my brother's words. Kick him in the chair and stand up.
I couldn't allow myself to just say that everything was for nothing to my sister who did what she had to do to get what she wanted.
I wave my arm to slap him on the cheek, but he grabs my arm easily.
"Remember carefully, silly sister. My Noland family does not defy the Duke of Alway. If we fight, the clan will be destroyed by only one court magician"
"There's no way I can do something stupid like that."
"Then you just have to think so. That if Jared Murphy cares about it, it's easy to drag you out of the mansion or even kill you."
"Then protect me! It would be a family!
"I don't think of anyone who would risk their family by doing nothing but being selfish! But I also think there are things I can do for my sister as my brother. That's why during the respite you've received, change your mind, plead guilty, apologize and atone to Lord Hannellone and the Duke."
"There's no way you can do that! Why do I have to apologize to Hannellone!
Linus sighed deeply at Cornelia's words, too selfish, and gave up his expression.
"Then I can't do anything for you. If the Duke's house gives you the last call, I'll poke you relentlessly. Be prepared."
My brother who thrusts away, with words, releases his arm.
As I walked out of the room without glancing at Cornelia with a smudge on the spot, I heard a locked noise from the outside.
"Why, what, why not!
Everything doesn't work.
I didn't mean to take my life at first. If he thought he could stir up a sense of crisis and drive him to another house, his husband's interest turned more to Hannellone and Olivier.
They turn on the adventurer and are inhibited by only one maid trying to do harm. I thought it was bad that I was being modest, and ordering me to kill didn't have consequences.
The emotions smoked in my chest for many years had grown to the point of killing where I no longer noticed them. Cornelia continues to act believing in the fantasy that everything will work out without even Hannellone.
I tried to hire Vault Toyfer to be a deceased, but once again, I got in the way.
I heard you fiancéed your loyal grandson for Olivier the troublemaker, but I didn't think he was enough to be a court magician.
I know how much Hannellone and Olivier are loved for one of her husband's actions.
In retrospect, even in the mansion where Hannellone disappeared and Cornelia began to divide, her husband's heart was always right for Hannellone.
"- Hate"
At last Cornelia accepted the emotion of saving on her chest.
It is murder, hatred, jealousy.
It was a negative sentiment for Hannellone, who took away his beloved, who had admired him all the way from a young age.
"I admit it. Hannellone, you hate it. I hate Olivier. Jared Murphy, who protected you, hated everything!
"Then why don't you fulfill that hate?
"Who!
A man's voice echoed in his own room where no one was supposed to be but her.
Raising his voice to his surprise, a skinny man with nervous glasses in front of a door that should be closed is smiling like a snake.
"Nice to meet you, Cornelia Alway. I'm Dolph Ayne. I'm the one who runs an organization. I'm here to help you."
