Became the Idiot Young Master Who Tormented the Main Character - Chapter 40
40 – #40. Tavern Lutio (2)
“Huh~ How does my brother who I haven’t seen before know our password?”
A girl who appeared to be in her mid-teens boldly walked out of the door through which her store owner had entered.
Amber eyes with her dark brown skin.
She had a short, child-like body, and her face was covered in red tattoos.

“I received a recommendation… “I’m here to trade good information.”
“Recommended?”
She walked out and naturally sat down next to me.
“It seems like you were quite trusted by that person. “If you recommend it carelessly, you will know that your hair will fly off.”
“… ….”
I know.
The Empire’s largest intelligence gathering force, ‘Night Crow’
A force that commands numerous powerful people as a clandestine group and trades vast amounts of information.
As a force whose main life depends on thorough concealment and secrecy, if there is someone who is making a mistake.
Someone disappears from this world without even a mouse or a bird knowing.
“So, shall we hear what good information this is? “I wonder if this is information that can protect my brother and his recommenders.”
“Before that, I’m a little thirsty, so I’d like to order first.”
“… Huh?”
Do not give leadership.
These are forces that strictly seek profits.
If you look down on it, you may be subject to unfair transactions that do not make a profit.
“Waiter.”
“Yes.”
“Here, please give me a glass of the Queen’s tears.”
“Thank you for today as well.”
I calmly ordered from the waiter standing at the counter.
When carrying out business, it is an iron rule not to let the other party see that you are scared, no matter what the situation.
“… “Oppa, you’re having fun, aren’t you?”
The girl sitting next to her giggles with interest and taps her fingers on the table.
He calmly declared that he would waste time in a situation where his life was threatened, so it had to be that way.
It would have been seen in two ways.
He’s just a big crazy guy.
They are people who should be treated preferentially because they have information that can make money.
Either way, there was no change in the fact that he did something that piqued her interest.
“These are the Queen’s tears that you ordered.”
“Thank you.”
I raised a wine glass filled with a luxurious cocktail.
The queen’s tears, reflected in the light, shined as transparent blue as the sea.
… I always saw it in games, but I never thought I would actually drink it.
-Sip or even.
The queen’s tears, sour and burning hot, wet my throat.
In an instant, my body heated up.
“hehehe!”
“… ….”
As she was looking at that day, she spoke to the waiter.
“Waiter.”
“Yes.”
“I also give the traitor one last drink.”
“Thank you for today as well.”
Afterwards, she told me.
“Oppa, you drink it really well… “For no reason do I want to eat it too.”
Did she also think of matching my rhythm?
I finally found the will to talk properly.
Soon the waiter handed her a glass of cocktail that was as bright as her blood.
“This is the end of the traitor you ordered.”
“Thank you.”
As soon as she took her glass, she immediately took a small sip of her own.
“… “I wasn’t going to drink today because of my diet, but you ruined it all.”
“How about going on that diet tomorrow? “There is a great atmosphere for drinking.”
I secretly looked behind me.
The peasants and commoners were standing shoulder to shoulder, singing traditional songs from their hometown, creating a lively atmosphere.
When I remember before being possessed, it felt like I was in a cozy Russian tavern.
I was emotionally healed. I haven’t had much time to rest recently, and since I’ve been so busy, I wanted to have some fun.
“… “The third prince seemed truly crazy to build a fish farm with people as sacrifices.”
In such a situation, I lightly got to the point.
She flinches at my words.
About 1 second.
She seemed to relax and calmly relax her body again, trying not to show off, but it was already too late.
I noticed that she was embarrassed.
I kept telling her.
“Joining hands with the Dark Demon Church, what does Third Prince Gerard want to do?”
“… It looks like he wants to overtake the 1st princess. “Because she is a prince with a strong inferiority complex.”
“Puuu, is that really true?”
“…… ?”
She looks at me warily from the corner of her eye.
“Is the 3rd Prince’s goal really limited to simply overtaking the 1st Princess and gaining her right to succeed to the throne?”
“I become emperor. Is there any goal as clear and lofty as that? That must be the most likely purpose… “Do you think there is something else?”
“I think there is something certain, not anything else.”
“… What is that.”
“… ….”
I again took a sip of the queen’s tears in silence.
She must be so anxious that she doesn’t even mention the traitor’s end to her lips, but only looks at my lips.
I was finally caught up in my own pace.
But it shouldn’t drag on for too long. If you hold back any longer, you will be disliked.
I had to win her favor.
To live safely in this world, you need a helper. It’s like a huge information force called the Night Crow.
“The Third Prince may want something higher than the Emperor.”
“Higher than the emperor… ?”
“Yes. For example, evolution.”
“…… ?”
I have given all the hints at this level.
She thought quietly for a few seconds with her hand on her chin.
“…… !”
Soon, her eyes widen as if she realized something.
“This… “Is this accurate information?”
“If you don’t want to believe it, it’s okay not to believe it.”
“… “Do you have any proof?”
“Let’s investigate what the Dark Demon Church is hoping for. If you do that, you will find out.”
“… ….”
“But this is not the information I want to give you.”
“What?”
“What I have said so far is a small gesture of sincerity.”
“Castle… of?”
I smiled kindly beneath my black robe.
From noble mtl dot com
And I drank in the remaining tears of the queen.
“… hahahaha. “I already drank it all.”
“I’ll buy you a drink. Waiter!”
Her attitude changed somewhat favorably.
… It’s almost over.
After hearing her words, the waiter came towards us.
“Did you call me?”
“Give me the two most expensive drinks here.”
“Thank you for today as well.”
She suddenly pulled her chair aside and sat close to me.
“Oppa. Is there anything you want to eat? “I’ll buy it for you.”
“Unfortunately, I don’t have much to think about after dinner. Rather, would you be willing to exchange information now?”
“What information do you want to know?”
“… “This is about the kidnapping of the Third Princess by the Dark Demon Church five days ago.”
It was big information related to the prince and the anti-magic forces, but it was information that the night crow’s intelligence power would have known.
To prepare for situations like this in the future, we need the help of night crows.
The information I can give is limited.
Only the big events in the story that are bound to happen, but you can’t know the little things or things that are unrelated to the game story.
So little by little… I had to throw in a little bit and take advantage of the deal.
“Do you want to know where they were kidnapped? … “It’s not light information, so we’re taking a lot of risk, but is the information we’re going to trade equivalent to that?”
“… Yes.”
I nodded.
She looks at her with suspicion.
Telling the location of the kidnapping is an act of colluding with the Dark Demon Church.
It is natural for her to doubt whether the night crow, who maintains neutrality, has enough information to commit such a dangerous act.
… I already had the information to give in mind.
The Night Crow must fight against the Dark Demon Church. For the safety of myself and those around me.
That’s why I want to give you clear information.
Because I need to establish a solid relationship with the night crow through her.
The waiter soon stood in front of us holding two glasses of high-end cocktails.
At the same time.
I said, looking at her with her serious eyes.
“The devil.”
“Huh?”
“… “Within the next five years, the Demon King will be resurrected.”

“You’re calling someone to Stitch this early in the morning. Have you learned anything?”
“… ….”
Fireflies flutter and sparkle in the dark.
The green meadows swayed gently in the dawn breeze.
It was a strange atmosphere.
… As soon as I arrived at the academy, I called my escort, Emil.
There was a strange silence between us sitting on the bench.
Emil, who was watching me, fell silent, but then she broke the silence.
“Have you had any alcohol?”
“… Yes. “I drank just a little, just a little because I needed it.”
“You must be quite the idiot for a student to drink alcohol.”
“… ….”
You idiot… rani.
Somehow, it was a sound I hadn’t heard in a long time.
At Emil’s joke, I laughed, which I wouldn’t normally do, because of the alcohol.
But it was not the time to be like this.
There is a reason why he called her to her dawn without even taking off her black robe.
I had to say it before I got even more drunk and couldn’t tell.
I spoke clearly to her, holding back her drunkenness.
“We have found the place where the princess was kidnapped.”
As soon as he heard what I said, Emil reacted as if he was surprised.
“Is that true?!”
“Yes. But it’s a really dangerous place.”
“It doesn’t matter! Come on, let’s find out where that place is… !”
“This is a red light district at the edge of the empire. “It looks like they settled in a place not too far away.”
“…… !”
Emil stood up.
And then he spoke to me with the intention of running out at any moment.
“Is it Dordom at the end of the Lyanna Empire?!”
“That’s right.”
“Right now… !”
“Wait a minute.”
I said, pretending to block Emil with my hand.
“Let’s go together.”
