The Woman Found the Will I Wrote

107 – Reverse Proposal

To conclude, instead of accepting the ‘proposal to bring out someone higher than a bishop’ that I suggested earlier.

The condition of the deal was to further strengthen friendly relations with the Per family in the future.

“It looks like my father would like to use this opportunity to keep a tight hold on Lord Dern, who is likely to become an archmage in the future.”

It is not enough that they have defeated all the wizards and knights of the Per family, which is not just an ordinary family, but also high-ranking nobles and a renowned family.

Since they showed magic so powerful that it could be described as unrealistic, they must have set such trading conditions.

‘Oh and in addition… ‘

I can’t say that the fact that Shien kept repeating the words ‘Would you do that to your son-in-law?’ As if brainwashing didn’t have an impact.

I am smiling a little while looking at Shien, who is smiling rather proudly next to me.

Shien touches my hand and talks to me as if it were natural.

“Oh, and your father asked me when I would marry Lord Dern. Until now, I had left it alone because I was an academy student. I don’t remember exactly what you said, but have you already bitten? Sucking? He used the same words and said that since everything was done, just get married.”

Judging by the expression “Bite and suck,” It seems like he caught me kissing Shien in the hallway earlier.

I closed my eyes tightly, feeling embarrassed that my father-in-law had caught me like that.

Shien seems to have mistakenly thought that the reason I closed my eyes was because of ‘marriage’, so he smiled somewhat triumphantly and whispered to me.

“I hope you don’t worry Lord Dern. Although he is inferior to Sir Dern in many ways… However, since I am the older sister than Lord Dern, I plan to take the initiative and resolve most matters.”

I wanted to say something about this.

Even if I said it, it seemed meaningless, so I sighed inwardly and said, ‘Please.’

“Yes. Lord Dern, I have a lot of work to do, so it may be difficult right now. Someday… Definitely.”

As she spoke, Shien covered her mouth with her hand and blushed.

She quickly turns her gaze away from me and quickly begins to finish her sentence.

“Ah, anyway, that’s what I understand.”

As I looked at Shien telling such a story, I wondered whether I should tell him the truth.

It became a bit difficult to speak in such a happy situation, so I decided to keep quiet for now.

After about a week had passed.

A call came from the head of the Per family.

[Reception room around 8pm tomorrow.]

It seems that there was good negotiation with the Heavenly God Church and they succeeded in bringing out a bishop-level person.

After confirming this, I am thinking about how to deal with the enemy.

I noticed Rumi, who was hovering around me nearby, smiling awkwardly and approaching me.

I looked at Rumi in silence, wondering why.

Rumi stands next to me and speaks to me in an awkward tone, massaging the air with her hands.

“Hey, Deer, don’t you need a massage or something?”

“Massage?”

“Yes… “I thought you might be achy because of the research.”

After discovering the will, rather than pushing myself away, I try to take small but helpful actions like this.

Of course, the problem was that the help didn’t really reach me.

‘It’s better than running away like before… ‘

For now, I decide to be satisfied with this situation and straighten my body to make it easier to massage.

Rumi slowly massaged my shoulder with her bright red face… No, to be precise, it would be more accurate to say that I was fiddling with it.

Anyway, he tried to massage and touch my shoulder

‘… ‘

Rather than a massage, the purpose was perhaps to massage my shoulders at will.

As she looked at Rumi, who was laughing behind her, wondering what was so good about her, she sighed inwardly, and Luna, who was in her arms, let out a sigh and spoke.

[Rumi is such an idiot! She told me not to do that!]

It seems that the ‘one week of practice’ I mentioned earlier included giving a massage.

I thought I had no idea what the two of them were doing and was going to ignore it and proceed with my research.

Suddenly, I feel a somewhat soft yet firm texture from behind.

“De, Deern. How about this?”

Unless you have something on your shoulder, this feeling is the only one.

I’m fiddling with my quill, thinking I don’t know how to react to that touch.

Rumi spoke to me in a whisper in her small voice.

“I… “For Dern’s sake, I came without even wearing underwear.”

“… “

I’m frozen by that one word that leaves me with nothing more to say.

Luna spoke to Rumi with a very proud expression while in her arms.

[Well done!]

What did I do well?

I lightly fed the two Dumb and Dumber-like guys some honey chestnuts, then pointed outside and spoke.

“Both of you, please stop and go outside. Anything more than this interferes with research.”

At those words, the two looked at me with wide eyes and started complaining.

“Yes!?”

[… ] ] … I worked hard!]

If I leave him alone any longer, he won’t be able to concentrate on his research, so I force him out, and dissatisfied voices spread around him.

I sighed as I realized that adding idiot to idiot creates the worst synergy.

‘It was a mistake to put the two together.’

No, it’s not even a mistake.

Still, his personality has become brighter and he no longer runs away from me.

I sighed, glaring at the study again, not knowing whether I should like it or hate it.

The next evening.

As I received the message, I arrived at Perga and met a human from the Celestial Church… No, would it be correct to call them demons?

Anyway, I was looking at the ceiling while waiting for the Celestial Church.

‘Using space expansion magic to trap them so they can’t escape, then depending on the other person’s actions… ‘

As the opponent is the opponent, I am thinking about what to do and planning a strategy in my head.

Shien cautiously enters the room and gives me a look.

‘It looks like we’ve arrived.’

As soon as I received that signal, I slowly got up and headed toward the guest room.

As I slowly make my way to the reception room, I see a woman sitting expressionlessly sipping a teacup.

‘Is that him?’

Although she hides her own power, the enormous amount of magic that comes out of her no matter how hard she tries to hide it proves that she is more than just her bishop.

I took my steps with a smile on my mind at the quite satisfactory result.

She crossed her legs and spoke briefly to me.

“I was waiting.”

You were waiting? At first, the moment I heard that, I thought Per family had betrayed me.

The head of the Per family used every means possible to stop me.

When I saw the matriarch’s expression filled with embarrassment, I realized that it was not a betrayal, but rather a trap.

‘Is this a plan made to lure me in from the beginning?’

I think I’m doing something quite interesting.

The woman who was sitting continued her speech by waving her hands.

“You go out, and only you come.”

At the same time, with an arrogant hand gesture, strong magic energy pulled me in.

The head of the Per family was forcefully pushed out of the reception room.

Of course, it didn’t affect me at all because I struck down the demon energy the moment it came at me.

Perhaps because the head of the Per family was nearby, he was unable to react and was thrown out of the guest room.

I walked forward slowly, thinking I was doing something quite interesting.

She points to the chair in front of me, her eyes shining as if she finds me quite amusing.

“There is a reason why Florence suffered.”

In context, Florence probably refers to the bishop who was captured earlier.

I laugh at those words and sit down in my chair.

She looked at me and continued her words by snapping her fingers and summoning a ‘contract’.

“Let me make a suggestion. If you promise to hand over Rumi and turn to the Heavenly God Church, I will grant you infinite power and any wish you wish to achieve.”

As the ransom price definitely went up, the offer became quite attractive.

‘I have no intention of listening to you.’

I laughed again at her words and slowly continued speaking.

“That’s stupid. Do you think I really need them?”

Those things might be meaningful to other people, but I reject them because I don’t really need them.

She spoke as if she had expected it, flicking her finger to get rid of her contract.

“Hmm. “I guess so.”

As I watched her arrogantly reject her words, I decided to take her place and make her offer her to me.

He took out a part of ‘Bishop’ that had been stored with space expansion magic and spoke.

“This time, I propose.”

Then he spoke briefly while supporting the bishop’s body, which had been pulled out, with electricity.

“If you don’t want it to be like this, commit suicide in as painful a way as possible before my eyes.”

I don’t know if it’s because his colleague was tortured or because my provocation worked.

She lost her composition like before and began spewing out her enormous magical energy.
