Chapter 144 – #31.5 Abduction, Marquis Thearesia Lars (1)
Rattle rattle
What a profit…
‘… Is there still a little time left before we reach the imperial castle…’
Light purple hair reminiscent of violets, tied back with fancy decorations.
Her young and beautiful appearance makes it hard to believe that she has an adult daughter.
The body arouses the desire of many men by properly distributing lust and constriction.
Theresia Lars, the wife of the former Marquis of Ras, who had received an invitation from the emperor, was looking out boredly from inside her carriage.
Three days had already passed since they departed from the Marquis of Ras.
A vast empire.
There is a considerable distance between the Marquis of Ras, located on the border of the empire, and the capital, which is the center of the country.
Still, if it was a simple merchant’s wagon, it would arrive in less than three days.
Since she couldn’t let the noblewoman Thearesia Las stay her homeless, she had to pass by other nobleman’s mansions in between, so her journey had to be long.
However, it was a road that I had passed by when I went to the imperial castle just a short while ago.
Without even asking the knights escorting this wagon, I know that it will take another three or three days before it arrives.
‘… It’s boring.’
There was a lady-in-waiting to assist Thearesia in the same carriage, but she had been with her for three days and they had no more to talk about.
As I passed the time quietly without saying a word to her, she fell asleep at some point and her saliva was dripping.
It’s a pity to wake up now just because you’re bored.
Thearesia Lars watched her handmaid’s cute figure with her little smile, then she turned her gaze back out of her window.
‘Because Fianna probably couldn’t sleep well last night because she was on her guard.’
‘Let’s sleep well for now.’
Fianna is the name of a young lady-in-waiting who came with her.
Fianna was a young and quick-tempered lady-in-waiting, and she was a lady-in-waiting of Thearesia and Charlotte because she was pretty and had a kind personality.
Usually, when there is work to go to the imperial castle, etc., She takes a more mature and experienced maid, such as her maid Jang.
However, the reason she chose her Fianna this time was because she was her maid and also had a special mission for her.
Charlotte and Thearesia’s special escort.
A special talent to protect two people who are the same woman with the body of a woman and with the title of lady-in-waiting.
Even without weapons, she is a skilled bodyguard capable of taking down two or three soldiers with her bare hands.
She appreciated that ability and came along on this journey.
The knights and soldiers sent from the imperial castle were entrusted with the escort, but in this situation, attaching the articles of the Marquis of Rath separately would be disrespectful to them and the emperor.
It could be a sign that they did not trust the knights and soldiers of the imperial castle, and even the emperor who sent them.
Because of this, Fianna was chosen as a last resort, since it was not possible to officially attach a knight as an escort.
‘… It’s still going well.’
‘It’s not like someone’s attacking at night. The food wasn’t even poisonous.’
‘But there are bandits on the way…’
There were several opportunities to do evil to Thearesia Ras.
Thearesia Ras herself was aware of that, and she left the responsibility for her sense of danger to Fianna, and she watched the situation with determination.
Even in the aristocratic mansions they passed by on their way here, if they had assassinated Thearesia there, the knights sent by the emperor would not have been responsible.
If it wasn’t for that, on the way, he would have passed by an area that had recently been buzzing with bandits, so he could have killed Thearesia under the guise of bandits there.
While making her heart pound, I thought that I would be able to use this as an opportunity to find an excuse to blame the emperor and the imperial family.
However, nothing happens, and I feel regret rather than relieved.
The act of taking one’s own life as bait seems very precarious and dangerous.
For Thearesia, who is burning the dark flames of revenge deep in her heart, saying that she will avenge her husband,
Her own life seemed to be all right.
‘… For the sake of the country, it’s better for that emperor to disappear.’
‘Because my husband, the Marquis of Lass always said that.’
‘Now that my husband is dead, at least I want to make that heart come true.’
However, even Thearesia had no intention of blaming an innocent person.
If the death of the Emperor and the Marquis of Von Rath had nothing to do with it, then he would be sad, but he would complete the sorrow within himself and put an end to it.
However, if something happened to Thearesia Lars on this journey,
Then, without further investigation, he was convinced that all the black people were the emperor, and he intended to destroy the emperor with all his might.
‘… However, nothing happened until the end.’
‘It will soon be Duke ■■’s territory. The security around here is good, and the duke is a friend and anti-emperor just like him… There’s no way anything could happen.’
‘Is this why nothing happens?’
Thinking like that makes me feel a bit relieved, but I also feel a sense of regret.
Revenge is so sweet,
The sadness of losing a loved one, the anger at the unfair fate, and so on, I wanted to pour out and burst out, no matter who it was.
Then I think this mind will be organized a little bit.
Then I guess I won’t have to be so sad anymore.
The fact that I couldn’t do that makes me feel so sad right now.
‘… It’s okay, revenge.’
‘If that happens, many people will see blood.’
‘If only I was sad and it ended… Then it would be better…’
Suppressing the still unresolved sadness, Thearesia looked out the window.
SuddenlyRattle! And the carriage suddenly stopped.
“… ?”
This is the middle of the road to the dukedom.
Even though there was still a long way to go to the destination, the carriage suddenly stopped.
There was no way for Thearesia to know that the reason the carriage had stopped was because someone wearing a hood was blocking the road ahead.
There is no need for a dignified lady to stick her head out the window and observe the situation outside the carriage.
“Hey, what’s going on?”
Thearesia asked, but she didn’t answer.
As the carriage stopped, Piana, who had been dozing on the other side, woke up as well.
Now, with her watchful eyes, she was putting her hand down her skirt.
There will be a secret weapon hidden under that skirt.
There is still no answer to Thearesia’s question.
However, as if she was instead, there were signs of presence, as if someone was approaching through the door of the carriage.
Soon after, the carriage door opened.
From beyond, someone in a hood came in on their own.
“Who are you?!”
Shih!
Fianna shouted, pulling her weapon from her skirt and pointing her sharp knife forward.
As she stands in front of Thearesia as if to protect her, she copes with the sudden intruder.
Even if she’s a bit wide, it’s a carriage anyway.
Fianna stretched out her arm just a little, and the tip of her knife rested around her opponent’s neck.
However, the suspicious figure wearing a hood only grinned at the knife approaching right in front of her neck.
“Hey, can’t we get rid of this dangerous thing? I just want to take my wife there.”
The voice that came from under the hood was a surprisingly thin female voice.
It was such a strangely sweet voice that somehow made her head go blank, but Fianna was vigilant and put her hand on her knife.
“Shut up. Who are you? How did you get past the knights outside?”
“Eh~? Did you just send it to me?”
Certainly, there was no fuss caused by this uninvited guest outside the carriage.
Is it correct that you just sent it?
Then, is this woman like an assassin who is acquainted with the emperor? ?
No, if I was going to act like this, wouldn’t it have been better if the knights outside were just trying to harm me… ?
“Oh my, let’s not be too rigid. Does the Marquis of Lars think so too?”
“Shut up! The likes of you and my master–“
“It’s okay, Fianna.”
She was Fianna who tried to raise her voice as if threatening, but
But her words were interrupted by her voice coming from behind her back.
“Piana, it’s okay, stop and sit down. You know.”
“… Ma, ma’am… ?”
“Didn’t you say it was okay?”
Fianna was taken aback by Thearesia’s words as if driving a wedge again.
Obviously, she must absolutely obey Thearesia’s words, and she must trust Thearesia.
Even so, she couldn’t keep quiet with such a suspicious person in front of her…
“Oh, I have to listen to my master.”
“… ?! Oops… !”
While Fianna is embarrassed.
The uninvited guest in her hood stretched out her arm and placed her hand on Fianna’s cheek.
She wasn’t Fianna who would accept a touch like this, but strangely, she accepted the hand without any resistance from her.
The hood that had been covering the face of the uninvited guest had come off in the meantime.
What was revealed from below was her jet-black hair, red eyes, and horns――
Even at first glance, it was something extraterrestrial.
“You… !”
“Now look at my eyes~ Right, right~ I can’t take my eyes off of you~ I keep looking at them~.”
Fianna’s eyes couldn’t get out of those red eyes that shone so brightly as if they were nailed to them.
From the tips of her fingers to the tips of her toes, she does not move as if turned to stone, and the light from her eyes disappears moment by moment.
With my daughter,
The knife slipped from her weak hand and rolled riotously across her floor.
“Come on, come on… More and more, more and more comfortable… My body and head are getting lighter and lighter… ♪”
The other uninvited guest with shining red eyes repeated in a soft and sweet voice.
Every time I heard that voice, her consciousness of Fianna also sank more and more.
As if her soul was being sucked out.
As if the soul were arrested.
I can’t resist, I just lose my light and consciousness more and more…
“Great. Shall we change our wagon then?”
At the words of an uninvited guest,
But the blank-eyed Fianna nodded her head obediently and left the carriage.
After that, Thearesia also came out of the carriage and quietly got on another carriage that had been prepared next to it.
Make sure the two are on board,
An uninvited guest―― Mona, the succubus sent by Earl Meln, also got on top of the carriage.
And she sat quietly next to Thearesia as it was.
“Whoops, you did a good job of hypnotizing me in the imperial castle last time ♪ I’m happy for you too, Marquis’s wife~ ♪”
Nod, and
Theresia Ras nodded her head with her empty eyes.
As if her appearance was admirable, Mona lightly kissed Thearesia’s lips and patted her crotch under her skirt.
Thearesia let out her sigh quietly through her empty eyes, her face blushing just that much.
She hung nothing more than a brief hint, but thanks to that she was able to seduce this woman with real ease.
Soon the doors of the two wagons close again, and the two wagons start moving in different directions.
The carriage that had been heading to the imperial castle, now empty, proceeded as planned.
Even so, the carriage with Thearesia and Fianna in it moved toward Count Meln’s mansion.
The knights under Mona’s hypnosis were completely unaware of the fact.
Without being known to anyone, Thearesia is naturally kidnapped…
