## Chapter 192 – Banquet Hall
I arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall.
Many people were making a fuss and protesting at the entrance.
“Hey! There’s still time left, why are you closing the doors already!”
“There are still 20 minutes left, open the doors now!”
Then, a reply came from the speaker above the massive doors.
“We apologize. It seems there was a miscalculation of time on our end.”
“Then open it again!”
“However, even if there was a miscalculation, the doors are already closed. We cannot reopen them. Blame yourselves for being lazy and not moving sooner.”
“What? You son of a bitch! Hey, open it right now?!”
No matter how much they screamed and raged, the doors wouldn’t open.
People kept banging on the doors and protesting, and some were on the phone trying to find a way to get inside, but the doors remained unmoving.
“It’s no use.”
Irina, who was watching from afar, said.
“The Lord of the House wouldn’t make such a mistake, but he’s also not one to reverse a decision once it’s made. Sigh. I guess we’re not going to make it to the banquet.”
“Sorry, it’s because of me.”
“It’s okay. It’s not your fault. It’s like a natural disaster. Who knew they would move the time forward by 20 minutes? We were just unlucky.”
“What happens if you can’t attend the banquet?”
Irina shrugged.
“You can’t participate in the tournament. Even if your partner is inside, they won’t recognize you as a team. Conversely, if only the assistant is inside, you’re obviously eliminated.”
Was Irina one of those cases?
Anyway, about 30 teams were confirmed to be eliminated due to that prank.
If things went as expected, only 80 teams would be left.
Bang bang bang!
“Open up! Open the door now!”
Irina shook her head, looking at the people stubbornly banging on the door, and then turned away.
“Anyway, we’re not getting in… Master, let’s go to my room and finish what we were doing earlier. How about my maid sister too?”
“Sounds good.”
I stopped the two women who were about to link arms with me and said.
“Why go all the way to your room?”
“Huh? Then?”
“If we’re going to do it, let’s do it in there.”
I pointed to the entrance of the banquet hall. Irina snorted.
“I’m telling you, we can’t get in. They’ll never open it. Persuasion won’t work.”
“Don’t worry. I have a way to get inside.”
“…Is that true?”
“The important thing is whether you have the will to go in.”
Irina nodded without hesitation.
[She has someone she must meet at the banquet hall.]
I hugged Irina and said.
“But there’s a condition.”
“Of course, there would be. What is it?”
“If you get pregnant with my child this time, you have to raise it.”
Then Irina was startled and protested.
“No way. If I suddenly get pregnant after not being with my husband for seven years, I’ll be suspected. Please forgive me on that one.”
“I’m telling you I’ll get you inside?”
“Ugh. Still, that’s a bit….”
I caressed Irina’s butt, then moved my hand to stroke her lower abdomen.
“Irina. You’ll have my baby, right? Or do you not want to make a baby with me?”
With a flushed face, Irina immediately replied.
“T, that’s not it. It’s just that it could backfire on you, Master.”
“Just raise it like it’s your husband’s child.”
“…My husband isn’t Asian. If I give birth to a mixed-race child, it’ll be 100% obvious.”
Ah, that’s true.
“Then come to me if you get pregnant.”
I pulled her breast out of her clothes and caressed it, saying.
“I’ll raise both of you.”
“No, it’s okay. I don’t think that’s a good idea. Let go of me. I’m just going to leave.”
Where are you going? I grabbed Irina’s breast tightly and didn’t let go.
Irina struggled back and forth with her breast in my grasp.
“Ugh. I said let go?”
But she couldn’t move an inch.
It wasn’t because I was strong, but because she herself was wavering, swayed by desire.
It was because I had hypnotized her, leaving her with quite a bit of free will, unlike usual.
“…Please let go.”
The hard nipple felt inside my palm.
At that moment, the people who had given up on entering the banquet hall approached us.
Step. Step.
I pointed to them with a chin gesture and said.
“If you really hate it, ask those people for help. Then I’ll give up on you too.”
“What?”
Irina, hearing the footsteps, widened her eyes.
She looked back and forth between me and them with an anxious face, 고민했다.
I leisurely waited for her choice.
After all, even if I was caught by those people and labeled a pervert, I could fix it with hypnosis.
So, what is Irina’s choice?
Irina looked back and forth between us several times, then clung to me, burying herself in my arms.
“Ooh. You guys have a great view?”
“Hey, let’s just go down to the village and play with some girls.”
The group disappeared, and Irina, cautiously raising her head from my arms, hesitated before opening her mouth.
“…If I come to you after getting pregnant, will you really take responsibility?”
“Depends on how you do.”
“Really… Okay. If I get pregnant, I won’t abort it. I’ll definitely give birth and raise it well.”
“Good thinking. Maid sister will give birth too, right?”
Of course, the white-haired maid bowed politely.
“Good. Let’s go then.”
“But how are you going to go?”
It’s simple.
I smiled brightly and used [Space Movement Scroll].
Soon, the three of us were enveloped in light and instantly dropped into the bathroom inside the banquet hall.
“Huh? Where is this…?”
“The staff-only bathroom inside the banquet hall.”
It was one of the places the doppelganger had been. It was possible because I could teleport anywhere I had been before.
“H, how?”
“What you just saw is a secret. Don’t tell anyone until you die, both of you.”
…Nod.
Good, I re-hypnotized them for security.
“So, how much time do we have left?”
I smacked her butt, and the maid, with a flushed face, checked her wristwatch and wiggled her butt from side to side as she answered.
“You can enjoy yourselves leisurely for about an hour and 20 minutes.”
Still plenty of time.
“Then both of you lean against the bathroom wall and stick out your butts. I’ll recharge your wombs with cum right away.”
“Hmph. Don’t just talk about it, hurry up and come. I’ll have Master’s child tonight.”
After spending an hour filling Maid Kate and Irina Rougegard with my seed, I entered the banquet hall with the two of them.
“There are so many people.”
“There are. Not only the tournament participants but also many people who gathered to watch.”
“Really? They all abandoned their main jobs and came to a place like this, they must be free.”
Irina shook her head, saying that wasn’t the case.
“Normally, even members of the Rougegard family can’t freely enter the main house. So, many people try to come to these official events.”
I see, is that so.
Certainly, there were many people looking around with curiosity.
It was obvious that it was their first time here. Maybe I look like that to the regulars too.
“Master is participating in the tournament, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Do you know anything about your competitors?”
I shook my head.
I knew almost nothing.
I had heard a little from Isabel beforehand, but it wasn’t enough.
Even Isabel had only been receiving education in the main house for less than half a year.
No matter how smart Isabel was, she wasn’t prepared enough to know everything about the family’s current situation.
“The restriction of one assistant is also part of that.”
A device for Isabel, who has no parental backing.
It was obvious that they had created the rules to make it as fair a fight as possible.
Of course, that meant that many mediocre people had also participated.
“…But why have people been looking at us since earlier?”
Everyone stares at us whenever we pass by.
Sometimes blatantly, sometimes furtively.
“Is it because I’m the only Asian?”
Anyway, I calmly accepted those burdensome gazes and moved my feet, wow…. There were really a lot of people.
The banquet hall was terribly large.
“This isn’t just a banquet hall.”
“It was built large enough to accommodate all the members of the family. It took 30 years to build.”
It’s going to be difficult to find Isabel here.
It feels like being dropped in a huge plaza with hundreds of people walking around.
It feels like I made a mistake in choosing the meeting place.
Moreover, everyone has blonde hair, so finding Isabel, who is blonde, was more difficult than I thought. It was a world of white people everywhere.
“Wait a minute.”
I thought I wouldn’t be able to find her even after an hour like this, so I stopped in my place and used [Omniscient Observer’s Viewpoint].
Accordingly, my vision changed slightly, and Isabel came into view.
“She was surprisingly close?”
Isabel was only about 50 meters away.
We were even in the same space together.
There were so many people that we couldn’t find each other.
“I wonder where Woo-jin is. Did he not see the note I left at the settlement?”
And Isabel was subtly stomping her feet and looking around.
Everyone else showed up with an assistant, but she was alone.
Isabel asked the butler next to her with concern.
“Where is the person who came with me?”
“He will be here soon. Perhaps he is a little late because he is sleeping off the fatigue of the journey.”
“But it seems like he’s too late.”
“Haha, maybe he’s already at the banquet hall. You don’t have to worry too much. Just in case, I selected reliable people and sent them to the accommodation three times.”
The butler spoke gently, reassuring Isabel not to worry. Only then did Isabel’s face brighten a little. But their conversation soon reached a turning point.
“Oh, my. Who is this?”
Someone appeared and spoke to Isabel.
A couple was approaching them.
Isabel’s expression hardened when she saw the man.
On the contrary, I smiled. They were the couple who had made me stuck in the reception room for 4 hours.
“Isabel Rougegard! Aren’t you the granddaughter that our Lord of the House especially cherishes? Ah, the butler is here too.”
The man, after briefly exchanging eye contact with the butler, looked at Isabel with a bright smile.
“But all alone? Hasn’t your assistant arrived yet?”
“…….”
“Hey. Aren’t you being too relaxed? The banquet hall doors are already closed? Ah! Or are you trying to prove your ability with your own strength, as befits your excellent lineage?”
Isabel’s face stiffened even more.
The butler as well.
“Butler.”
“Yes, I will check it myself.”
The butler answered and disappeared, and the man approached Isabel and teased her.
“By the way, should our little granddaughter even be at a drinking party like this? In my opinion, you should go home, drink more of your mother’s milk, and grow taller?”
Hahaha. The people who heard the story burst into laughter.
Isabel glared at him sharply.
Isabel’s height is 158cm.
She had a small body because she couldn’t grow while being abused by Emma.
She was very small among the tall white people.
Especially since the man was quite tall. He looked like a child in front of a man who was nearly 30cm taller than her.
“I warn you, give up early. The Rougegard family is not small enough for a naive person like you to play house.”
But Isabel, who had been rolling around under Emma, was not easy to deal with either.
“Well, I don’t know if someone who has grown up like a flower in a greenhouse for 24 years and has never experienced hardship has the courage to lead such a large family.”
“What?”
“And it’s not like you’re a child, making fun of the other person’s body in such a low-level way. You should go and drink more of your mother’s milk and raise your mental age.”
Puhahat! The people around who heard the story burst into laughter. There were also those who mocked her for passing by and arguing with a small child.
“Th, that’s enough!”
The red-haired lover next to him stopped the man from getting angry at the story.
She stepped forward instead of the man and said to Isabel with a sly smile.
“Well, maybe so. But miss. What is needed in this day and age is not courage but ability.”
“…….”
“You saw it two months ago, didn’t you? Many people in the family have already come out in support of our boyfriend.”
Isabel bit her lip tightly.
“What about the young lady compared to that? You have no parents, no one supports you except the Lord of the House. Now you don’t even have an assistant?”
“Haha, Scarlett, you said it well! What is a bastard with no parents doing?”
Isabel clenched her fists and trembled.
It was as if she was too angry but had no strength, like a child trembling.
Even though she was young, Isabel had a face that hadn’t lost all of her baby fat.
So, her tearful and trembling appearance made me want to pinch and pull her chewy cheeks right away.
“Anyway, I know for sure that they are our enemies.”
After eavesdropping on the conversation enough, I released [Omniscient Observer’s Viewpoint] to comfort Isabel.
Then, I moved my feet and asked Irina.
“How well is that kid doing?”
“Who? Ah, William?”
Irina said with a bright smile.
“He’s doing great! First of all, he’s handsome. He has wealth and a strong family, he has everything! He’s the most powerful candidate among the competitors this time!”
Irina made a fuss like a fandom meeting an idol.
“He’s the most powerful candidate in this tournament?”
Well, that’s probably why he openly criticizes the Lord of the House’s granddaughter in front of everyone, and curses her for being a child with no parents.
As I was thinking that, Irina added.
“And he’s my son!”
“Huh?”
Then Irina straightened her clothes and shouted as she approached the boy.
“William!”
“Ah, Mom, you’re here?”
“Yes!”
The mother and son hugged each other and exchanged greetings by touching their cheeks alternately.
I was speechless for a moment and just stared at them.
“Oh, um…. So, the person I fucked, impregnated, and enslaved was the mother of the most powerful candidate?”
Now I knew why people’s eyes were on us when we came here.
The fact that her son is a strong candidate for Lord of the House means that his parents are also in the TOP of the Rougegard family.
Irina smiled brightly and approached me.
“Son. This person is.”
William, who turned to me, hardened his face.
On the contrary, Isabel shouted with a bright face when she saw me.
“Woo-jin… Taebaek-nim!”
Isabel ran to my side, linked arms with me, and stuck close.
Irina blinked next to her son.
The son and his couple, who had screwed me over, looked surprised that I was here.
Then, with fierce eyes, they stared at me for a long time, and the man approached me and held out his hand.
“I’ve heard the story. You’re the assistant Isabel brought? Nice to meet you, Yellow Monkey.”
“Ah, son. Yellow Monkey!”
“Mom, stay out of this for a moment.”
William smiled bitterly at me.
It was clearly a word and a sneer containing the meaning of provocation.
“Honestly, if it were Korea, I would have just ignored it with the feeling of ‘do whatever you want’.”
I looked around.
Everyone was paying attention to us. I felt like I had to say something.
I don’t know much about foreign etiquette, but if I just let it go, people might say that I ate etiquette with rice.
“But what should I say to accept the provocation appropriately? I don’t know the level of provocation and jokes exchanged between foreigners.”
Ah, I don’t know. It’ll work out somehow.
I shook the hand that the other person held out and said something that came to mind.
“Yeah, nice to meet you. But your mom is awesome.”
