1836 Episode 1836



"d*mn it!"

 Such abuse echoes around, and the next moment the sound of glass being destroyed echoes around.
 But the man who uttered the voice... Geiska doesn't seem to feel at all refreshed to that extent.
 The reason is that I am in such a bad position.
 It was money that Geiska had prepared to hire a black wolf.
 It was that he had prepared money from various places, and, in spite of the inevitable circumstances, he had secured the residence of the Marquis of Seysore in Annethys, and had prepared the money."

"Why, why is this known to my father? Who betrays me? No, not many people know about it in the first place, and it is impossible for Deotle to betray me!"

 Such a cry of Gaiska reverberates in the room.
 ...yes, for some reason his father knew that he had borrowed money on the grounds of his own accord, which Geiska had absolutely to hide.
 I'm not sure how his father came to know the matter, but of course if he knew that Gaiska had done it, it wouldn't be the case.
 This mansion, in particular, was prepared in a city governed by the leader of the aristocracy, Annesis, and if it were to fall into the wrong hands, the face of the Marquis Seysore family would be covered with mud.
 Because I knew that, I kept Geiska from being known to others, but in the end I was waiting for only the result of prudence.
 That is because of the present circumstances, and when the party, attended by the majority of aristocrats, the Marquis of Seysore will undoubtedly dispose of Gaiska.
 Is the punishment, in particular, to remain confinement, to be expelled from the Marquis of Seysore, or to be killed in the worst possible way?
 I didn't know what was going to happen to me, but I don't think it would work for me anyways.

"What shall I do, what shall I do...?"

 Usually, Deotres would advise me if I had hesitated, but Deotres is not here.
 In other words, you have to decide everything yourself.

"d*mn, how... it was all Ray's fault in the first place. If Ray had respect for the nobility, this wouldn't have happened. d*mn it..."d*mn it!"

 I tried to throw the glass again, but since I just threw it, no one put it away or put a new glass in front of the Geiska, there was nothing there.
 If I had a servant here, I would have taken it out of my head... no one would naturally want to get close to what we are today.
 Knowing what kind of personality Geiska has, he doesn't approach her so easily.
 What's more, now that Geiska's father is here, the greatest man in the estate is no longer Geiska.
 In the presence of such a father -- who is no longer in this mansion to attend a party -- if he assaults his servants with the same beatings and kicks as before, it can be fatal.

"What shall I do... what shall I do?"

 Gaisca said the same things as the Count of Caceles, who attacked Caceles, but no more help came than the Count of Caceles...
 I hear a knock on the door of the room, and Geiska turns to the door, wondering what had happened for a moment.
 Geiska didn't think anyone would come to see her now in confinement, and for a moment he wondered if the knock was just imagining it.
 But... for a few seconds I heard another knock at the door.
 Clearly the knocks come from there, not in Gaiska's mind.
 Who is coming to see you in this situation?
 While questioning it, Geiska stands up, determining that it won't get any worse than it is now.
 For a moment, my legs wobbled, but I moved to the front of the door, telling myself that I was drunk.
 When he opened the door, Geiska opened his mouth dumbfounded at the sight of his face.

"Why is a man like you here?"
"Heh, don't say that. I rushed to the scene when I heard that Mr. Geiska was in trouble."

 It was Gaiska's contact with the Black Wolf that made him laugh.
 Geiska is wary of a man with a smile on his face, who, to be honest, doesn't know why he's here.
 It's only natural that the middleman was cooperating with Gaiska to pay the black wolf.
 I've given him some in advance, but it's very difficult to come up with what he should pay for success after the Black Wolf kills Ray.
 If you've had any requirements for yourself, it's definitely about defaulting on your contract.
 Normally, I don't care about signing a contract with a man like this, but I can't do that under the current circumstances.
 Although Geiska is doing some physical training, it's only to some extent.
 The man who acted as an intermediary must have been used to rough things, as he was only from behind the scenes.
 That being the case, if the man in front of you attacks you, there's nothing you can do about it.
 Usually, there's Deotres at times like this, but... he's no longer on Geiska's side.
 Geiska himself probably didn't want to admit it at all, but he took a few steps back unconsciously because he was terrified of the middleman.
 The man acting as an intermediary looks at Geiska and looks down on him, keeping his face out of sight of Geiska.
 It was absurd to see a man who had been so condescending about him trying to suppress his fear in front of him.

"Did you come for me? In the first place, my father is practically in control of this house. You've been able to come into such a place."
"It's normal, so there are many ways to communicate."

 The man's words as an intermediary were not to be missed by nature.
 In fact, in his own room... he shows up in this room in the back of the house.
 Generally speaking, it's very likely that you'll be assassinated if something happens.
 But Geiska didn't seem particularly concerned about whether he didn't realize it or simply not.

"So what do you want from me? Now that you're here, do you know what I'm in?"
"Yes. My father told me that I was under house arrest... but is that all right?"
"What?"

 Gaiska looks mystified at the man's words as an intermediary.
 I don't know what you're trying to say. I don't know, but... I guess you still felt something disturbing about it.

"Mr. Geiska may have been a little careless, but was it because he judged that it was in the interest of the Marquis of Seysore, so that it would only be praised, and that it would not be reprimanded in the presence of his servants, and that it should be said that he had done a good job."
"That's..."

 Generally speaking, what the middleman is saying is absurd.
 In the first place, it is quite unacceptable to borrow money from a mansion in the important city of Anesis.
 But for the now cornered Geiska, the middleman's words were like sweet poison.
 Like such a fascinating fruit that even if you know it, you will be tempted to reach for it.

"Yes, you're right. I took action for the good of the Marquis of Seysore. My father would have had to admit it."

 Yes, I'll say it all.
 What Geiska has done is, if you're not good at it... well, if it comes to light, it's a disgrace to the Marquis of Seysore.
 But I immediately jumped at the middleman's remark that he was not to blame.

(Hehe, it's comfortable. It's of the Marquis family line. There are many uses to use it. I was wondering what to do when the head of the family told me to be on my guard... That's great.)

 It's not a matter of course that the man acting as an intermediary came to see Gaiska in this way.
 This middleman naturally belongs to the back organization.
 It's only natural considering they're connected to black wolves.
 The man who was the middleman's boss in the organization had told him to go see Geiska and persuade her to bring him in.
 At first, I thought it was impossible to persuade him because of his character, but... when I actually met him and talked to him, he was able to complete his persuasion more easily than I had expected.
 To be honest, I was even out of my element on the matter.
 At any rate, the intermediary successfully reached out to Gaiska and was also successful in persuading her.All I have to do is take Geiska to the place where my boss told me to...

"Mr. Geiska, how many people are left in this house, and I want Mr. Geiska to hide himself once?"
"Are you going to hide? Are you going out of this house?"
"Well, I need to convince my father how much Mr. Geysor worked for the Marquis of Seysor, but if Mr. Geysor was in front of me at that time, he would never be able to admit his mistake without being honest."

 The words give Geiska a moment of doubt.
 But before Geiska can think of anything, the middleman speaks again.

"Sir, let's get out of here as soon as we can, so that Marquis Seysall can see how wonderful Mr. Geyska has done, for whatever he may do, he must first come to his senses."
"Is that so?"

 The Geiska was once again in doubt, but she believed what was convenient for her.
 Around here, when Geiska wants to think that his actions are right, it's because he has such feelings in Geiska, and it's a form of being easily swept away by them.

"Yes, of course. So, back to the question, do you know how many people are left in the house? I'm quite confident in my arms, but still, if there are many people... if it's a black wolf, that's not a problematic."
"The Black Wolves must have Ray killed to prove that I was right. I can't be bothered by this. ... So, there are more people than usual, as long as my father is here. But a good man will be on his way to the party as his bodyguard."
"Well, there are a lot of people, but no one is good at it? Then, somehow..."

 Geiska feels a little creepy about the man who mumbled so.
 Perhaps this man will kill the rest of the house.
 Strangely enough, Geiska was worried about this, who regularly used violence against servants and, in some cases, would not stop beating and kicking.
 It is not, however, that he is concerned for the lives of his servants, but for the death of his father's men, the Marquis of Seysore.

"Are you going to kill me?"
"What? Oh, no. Of course I can't do that. I can't do that if Mr. Geiska's position gets worse.
"...I see,"

 The man's words put a look of relief on his face, though he seemed oblivious to them.
 He acted as an intermediary with a servile smile, but naturally he showed his frustration, saying that he was in trouble.
 I thought this incident was a simple task, but I didn't know it would bother me.
 But as long as we had to do something about it, we had managed to avoid encountering our servants... and to figure out how to escape from the Marquis of Seysall, so as not to encounter the guards and knights.
