The bad ending of an Otome game MTL - Chapter (153)
Episode 153
Edmund Gloucester stared at me. A dangerous light flashed in the man’s eyes like shattered pieces of metal.
Ouch, a low grinding sound was heard.
“Lady Emilia…….”
A man took a step closer to me. I flinched, but I tried my best to be as calm as the expression on my face.
“What’s so arrogant?”
Edmund looked angry. His jaw trembled faintly, as if something thick had hit his throat, and he couldn’t contain himself.
Then, in the banquet hall, the turbulent air was like when you slapped me on the cheek.
“Now I don’t have anything to hold on to.”
that’s funny When did I say I had a lot? I raised my chin and answered arrogantly.
“Can I give you the other cheek? I’m really looking forward to where you will be given this time other than the library.”
“A horse never loses once.”
“Should I apologize for not being a compliant person?”
“If you think about it, back then, even in the forest. He jokes without fear while endangering his life… … .”
Ha, I heard a hoarse laugh.
“Aren’t you scared?”
The man’s face came closer. Blue eyes that look like madness. I looked up at him with an expressionless expression.
It was so close that I could hear his breath. The tip of his nose rubbed for a moment. If I had only seen the momentum, it was so horrendous that it would crush me to the bone at any moment.
“Are you threatening to kill a customer without a mouse or a bird just because you visited alone?”
“What if I do it?”
“That……. The Brahmanduffs will be excited and they will bite the Gloucesters.”
Edmund’s face contorted at the moment he heard me. A sarcastic question came first.
“under! Do you believe Casio Brahmanduff will protect you?”
“no. I believe that if he accidentally loses me, whoever he is will be in trouble.”
“What is the difference?”
for example…… Assume that I am being pursued after being framed for assassination of the royal family, like Elodie is now.
Casio Brahmanduff will do a sobering profit and loss calculation and throw me away if necessary. Well, depending on the time, I might be able to tame the person who framed me.
okay. I don’t believe he will ‘protect’ me. I don’t know if it’s ‘revenge’.
Oddly enough, there was such a belief. The belief that if Edmund Gloucester kills me, Casio Brahmanduff will get revenge.
But Laertes Hope will hold my hand if I’m in trouble, without looking back.
If it becomes your enemy, the man who told me to cut myself too. That was the difference.
“Now you are saying that your attitude towards Lady Elodie is similar.”
“radish…….”
“If you say you like someone, you take responsibility for that.”
I couldn’t take responsibility for it, so it kept killing my heart.
“Didn’t you hate Lady Elodie?”
“I don’t want to die just because I hate it.”
“He said that he was living proudly for Ophelia, but now he has this contradictory attitude…….”
“Whether I live, dead or alive, I consider him the most precious person in the world, and I want Lady Elodie to come back to life. Apart from that Sir Edmund Gloucester looks like a daphnia crawling out of Hell… … I wouldn’t feel good if you framed me without guilt.”
Edmund froze.
Seeing the bewildered look on his face, as if he had heard a nonsensical sound, I let out a cold voice.
“Of course, it’s a succubus. I will applaud you if you stumble and stumble in the disaster that you have brought.”
“…… Since when did Lady Emilia become so kind? … .”
“I don’t know why you keep treating me like a hogu when you say that Casio and Edmund are just living like a human being.”
“Like a human, yo?”
Edmund Gloucester made the face that I was dying of pity now.
Seriously, everyone’s mental state is like this, so the endings in the game must have been that shit.
Even when they say common sense, only two out of three people respond by saying, ‘Where in the world are there such naive words these days?’
I pushed the tip of Edmund’s nose with the palm of my hand and pulled it away from me. Edmund took two or three steps back with his erratic movements.
“Yes. Can you tell me straight up? I want you to think about finding a woman you like like a human and buying her.”
“So far, what have I been saying…….”
“Aren’t you worried about me?”
At my words, Edmund Gloucester momentarily looked like he had been stabbed in the back of the head.
There was no sarcastic sarcasm, no anger, no masked expression, only pure surprise.
“You didn’t advise me to take care of myself and hide as if I was dead, didn’t you?”
To the extent of that, it was a battle of how dare you give me advice. I’m going to tell the truth to a kid who doesn’t know anything, so listen carefully, this attitude.
“I don’t want to pay too much attention to advice that is not sincere.”
I smiled broadly. If possible, I hope my smiling face effectively scrapes the insides of Edmund Gloucester.
But Edmund Gloucester licked his lips a few times, as if he was speechless, and then shut them tight.
To be honest, even if I don’t really like Elodie, it’s kind of hard to ask for a connection with a writer like Edmund Gloucester.
But right now, my life is on the line, so I wanted to use it even if it was a daphnia like that.
Edmund, who looked at me with a calm face, answered in a gloomy voice.
“…… Ah, of course! I was hoping to understand the plight of Lady Emilia, who is running wild without knowing my subject, but since it is not necessary, I don’t need to go any further.”
“Yes. Yes.”
“You will regret it.”
“What?”
“The present man-yong.”
I paused for a moment. Edmund Gloucester always had that attitude towards me, though. Just now, his voice was strangely different from usual.
“Yes. Please laugh out loud in the future. I am a lowly lady who cannot keep up with the wisdom of the great expert Sir Edmund Gloucester, so I have to step down for today.”
no way. I’ve never seen a guy change his mind in the future, like a guy who inevitably goes to see it later.
Well, Edmund Gloucester is a really good little guy to get the job done… … What are you going to do at a risk to me who’s not even Elodie? No way.
I turned away from Edmund with a smile on my face until the end.
There was no greeting until I left the door. The Gloucester butler, who, as always, maintained a perfect smile, bowed his head politely at me.

“You still have no results? Oh my gosh, Sir Laertes. You don’t even have to lie to me.”
Archduke Franz was completely different from what he had seen recently.
The cowardly figure when he ran away from his seat as if frightened in front of Laertes was nowhere to be seen, and he had a confident smile on his face.
He pretended to know Laertes, who had visited the palace for a report, and in the next moment without a word he even put his arm around Laertes’ shoulder.
One of Laertes’ eyebrows twitched.
Whether he was unaware of the signs of such opponents, or whether he noticed them but didn’t care, the Archduke still maintained a friendly attitude as if he were dealing with a friend of a decade.
“The pressure you must be feeling, I don’t know! Well, then. After all, something happened to the Lady who was staying in the Windrose family, how heavy would it be on her shoulders? You don’t have to think hard about me. Yes, you can think of me as your father.”
“It is an unjust word.”
“Uh-huh! You can’t use it when a person is so inflexible, darling. If you stop being humble, it’s a sin, a sin.”
He secretly changes his tone and pretends to be friendly. The man’s purple eyes sharpened.
“I will take my heart. As you said, we are investigating the case ordered by His Majesty, so I don’t want to buy someone else’s guess by showing a friendly attitude.”
“Hey, man…….”
As he stared at Laertis, who resolutely removed his arm, the Prince’s face lit up for a moment, and then a disgruntled light flashed and then disappeared.
“…… Well, Sir Laertes, it’s not like a day or two. Well, anyway, I’m serious. me what… … He’s always been faithful to my older brother. I tried to lighten her burden, but lately Her Majesty the Queen…….”
The Grand Duke pointed to the other side of the palace with a wink.
The king awoke, but only awake, and still spent most of the day in bed. No one could predict when he would leave and wake up.
The only way to know the king’s intentions were the words that the queen, known to be guarding, intermittently said, ‘Your Majesty has arrived’.
Laertes’ report was simple. No progress on the case as of yet. Tracking the remnants of enemies. In any case, we are investigating to prevent a recurrence of this situation.
The Queen expressed dissatisfaction with the sluggish situation as she ordered the search for Elodie and the princess with the highest priority, but Laertes did not say anything.
So, rumors have already circulated that the queen is trying to sack Laertes by holding her accountable for this situation.
Now that the king has awakened, the position of Archduke Franz is ambiguous.
Fighting with the queen, who hides the king’s coma for days and works so that his son can fully ascend the throne, is different from fighting the king himself.
“okay. I can only guess the feelings of parents who have lost their children, but it is not a matter of putting too much empathy for public affairs.”
“I am only sorry for causing concern to the Queen because of my shortcomings.”
“It’s not your fault. How is it your fault that the enemies are so sophisticated?”
Laertes’ eyes were dry, but the Archduke showed kind eyes and tapped Laertes’ shoulder.
“Well, I did my own research, but I heard that the chief maid, whom the Queen had loved, was also sacrificed in this incident. Maybe that’s why he was even more upset. However…… You’re fair and fair, so I’ll tell you.”
The archduke whispered.
“It has been said that the maid was visibly disrespectful to the princess. Did you go out of the palace too often… … .”
“…….”
Laertes opened his eyes to ponder for a moment.
“Where did you hear that?”
“Whoever speaks in the palace is bound to steal it. I’ve only heard rumors floating around.”
“You cannot investigate the royal family simply by heart attack.”
“Huh! Hey guys, talk to me in a big way. Wherever I go, it sounds like I was talking about accusing the Queen. I only remembered because it was absurd to say that the lowly ones dared to be disrespectful to the royal family. If that’s true, shouldn’t the rest of the maid’s family be blamed too?”
“…….”
“Besides, everyone knows that the Crown Princess is extremely restrained from going out of the palace, but is this good-natured person who will often send her maid out of the palace on her own to run a small errand for me?”
The Grand Duke was the one who said sarcastically that the queen was not very lucky, and that Myeong-saek was born as the king’s eldest daughter, and that she would be sad because her daughter was so weak and timid.
On the other hand, the Grand Duke’s daughters and sons were all in good health and had no major problems with their personalities.
The Grand Duke, who had been secretly ignoring the royal family with the excuse of the princess’s lack, made a sad voice as if he was genuinely concerned.
Laertes only looked at the scene with cold eyes.
“We will take care of your concerns and take care of them.”
“Hmm, well, it’s not good for people to live too straight. What do you do when you go out of your way to buy a misunderstanding from your Majesty the Queen? Taking care of you is the first, first. Even if I want to help, I’m afraid my brother will misunderstand me… … .”
“You don’t have to worry as the Grand Duke’s heart has not been distorted in the slightest.”
“Yes, yes! A man among men! There is no one more virtuous and trustworthy than Sir Laertes.”
Laertes let out a wild laugh until the end and looked at Archduke Franz with troubled eyes as he walked away.
Even a powerful person who could see all his plans, it was difficult to treat him rudely as long as he was in power.
It was then. I could feel a faint smirk next to me. should i cut it? No, for an assassin or an enemy, he had an excessively low-key presence.
“Lee, Laertes, Deputy Knight Commander.”
The maid she saw for the first time spoke to her with desperate eyes.
“Oh, please save Princess Aloisia.”
Laertes’ eyes widened.
