Reincarnated User Manual - Chapter 246



246 – Guest from the Winter Castle

Thump, thud-

Siron, who felt a brief sense of floating, shook his head and looked at the familiar scenery. The destination of the teleport was, of course, the capital’s mansion and the garden of the outbuilding.

“what?”

Just as I was savoring the feeling of returning, Latera, who had gone ahead first, tilted her head. Eventually, she came back and tugged on his collar.

“what’s the matter?

“There’s no one in the house.”

“…huh?”

No way. After briefly denying it, Shiron approached the annex. Although Siron is often away from home, this is a place where, in addition to Encia and Ophelia, there are also several people working to serve Latera.

Didn’t you see that Eldrina’s order to ensure that the owner receives the best treatment at any time, even if he is away from home for a long period of time, was delivered right before his eyes?

“What, is there really no one there?”

As Latera said, there was no sign of popularity in the outbuilding.

The same goes for the demon maids. Although not as sensitive as Latera, Siron can also sense subtle magical energy, so he confirmed the absence of Encia and Ophelia without searching every corner.

‘what? ‘They’re not the kind of kids who don’t talk as they please…’

Since I was no longer a child who needed security, I once ordered her to go somewhere she wanted to go, and even Encia, who longed for freedom more than anyone else, regularly reported whenever she went somewhere to play.

“Hero.”

Just as I was about to think about this and that, Latera tugged on my collar again.

“It smells like the devil in there.”

Latera pointed in the direction of the main building.

“Why are you two going there? Did Lady Eldrina call you?”

“…Not just those two, there’s one more. It’s a very strong demon.”

“…”

As far as Siron knows, the only demons left in this world are the women of the Dawn Castle. And, out of all of them, there was only one demon that could come all the way here.

One-horned yuma.

‘What’s going on here Yuma?’

Yuma was weaker than Encia and Dorothy, but Siron was convinced that the demon that had come to the main house was Yuma.

“Master. You’ve arrived at the right time. Your wife is waiting for you.”

It was Deacon Noh who greeted Shiron as he arrived.

Even though we had only seen each other a few times and had not talked much, he recognized Shiron at a glance and led us inside.

“Is it because of the guests?”

“Yes, I knocked on the door saying I was looking for you, but when Mibu looked haggard and brought up your name, it was my wife who was dealing with me first.”

“…Has Siriel come back?”

“You mean lady?”

When Siron nodded, the old butler stared at Siron with a subtle smile.

“The young lady has not returned from the expedition yet. Of course, the outside adult has not returned yet either.”

“Right.”

“Are you by any chance Miss Siriel someone you shouldn’t face?”

“What are you talking about? I’ll go alone now, so you can finish your work.”

From noble mtl dot com

Siron passed by the old butler with a displeased look on his face.

That subtle gaze… It seemed like he was convinced that Shiron was ‘playing with fire’ from outside, but even if he tried to deny it, he couldn’t because it was true that he had played with fire last night.

However, that did not mean that the theory was not honorable. Siriel was a good girl, so she would allow one or two concubines, and I had no doubt that Siron would find it cute if she teased him a bit for the sake of peace.

[Hero, are you trash?]

‘Uh-huh, don’t say anything bad.’

[oh. I made a mistake without realizing it…]

Latera covered her mouth and trailed off, but was unable to stop the conversation altogether. No matter how much she thought about Shiron just now, she couldn’t just ignore it.

[But what can I do with the thought I just had of the hero, and the thought that this is truly trash just popped out of my head? Asking me to look cute on my fiancé who was openly having an affair… It felt like my common sense was warped, so much so that I was almost scared.]

‘Well, shouldn’t you say that out loud?’

[…why?]

‘Did you notice that I conspired with Seira to keep me and Lucia alone? ‘If I’m trash…’

[If I were your fiancé, would I find the warrior’s affair cute?]

hehehehe. Latera laughed awkwardly at the sharp rebuttal. But at the same time, she wanted to convey a word of advice to Siron.

[Still. No matter how much Sirielle is infatuated with the hero… she is so possessive that she shows jealousy even towards me, a little girl.]

‘hmm…’

[Even the hero admits it. So, you showed signs of agitation when you heard the news that that dirty-ass devil had arrived.]

‘Do you want to keep saying bad things?’

Siron waved his hand in the air as if dispersing smoke.

‘I just want people around me to be happy. ‘I didn’t commit suicide because I couldn’t control my s*xual desires.’

[is that so?]

‘Yes, if you think about it, Siriel, Lucia, and Yuma are all happy to some extent because of their relationship with me. is not it? All three of them rolled their eyes and were so happy that they wanted to die.’

[…This is really unexpected logic. I can’t refute it!]

‘yes? When you compare the total amount of happiness in a relationship, does it mean that the other person becomes happier and you actually lose out? ‘I will sacrifice my whole body to make others happy. Is there anything more worthy of a warrior than this?’

[Warrior…!]

Siron walked down the hallway, following the increasingly dark magic, leaving Latera behind, who was moved by the logic of the miracle.

-smart

-Come in.

Siron knocked a few times and opened the door as soon as permission was given.

“young master.”

When I opened the door to the living room, what I saw was Eldrina, but the voice came from the other side of her. One-horned yuma. Not only was she alone, but Encia and Ophelia were also there.

However, Shiron did not respond to Yuma right away. Yuma is a guest and the hostess of the mansion is Eldrina. He greeted the elders of the family first.

Eldrina smiled pleasantly at the polite manners.

“I was going to send someone, but they came just in time.”

“I came from working outside, but there was no one in the annex to welcome me.”

“Well, are you really hurt?”

“Is that possible? There’s no way Eldrina would make me feel left out anyway, right?”

“It’s good that there are no unnecessary misunderstandings and that we can talk quickly.”

Eldrina smiled at Siron, who maintained an attitude she liked. She stood up and spread her arms towards Siron.

“You had a hard time doing outside work.”

“Oh my gosh, what kind of trouble do you think I went through? It’s no different.”

“I’ve seen a lot of guys, including my eldest brother, but there aren’t many guys as sharp as you.”

After patting Siron on the back, Eldrina turned her gaze to Yuma.

“Well, I hope you have a good time, ma’am.”

“…”

“I hope you call me mother next time.”

After saying that, Eldrina left the living room.

Is this a check on behalf of my daughter against a strange woman?

Siron sat down in the same spot where Eldrina sat, feeling nervous.

“Has it been two years?”

“Have you raised your dignity? Master.”

Yuma got up from the chair, grabbed the hem of his clothes, and bent down. Behind her, Encia and Ophelia were as frozen as stones, and it was natural for Siron’s gaze to rest on them.

“What’s going on here? Why are they here?”

“I’m sorry. I thought you needed some education, so I was presumptuous.”

“education?”

“Yes, even though their contract has been transferred from me to you, Master, they behaved so rudely…”

‘What on earth happened?’

Siron opened his eyes and stared at Encia and Ophelia. Encia was always fussy, but when I heard that even Ophelia, who seemed like a model student, confronted Yuma, her head tilted.

“Young Master! We are being treated unfairly! You can’t look at us like that!”

“Please believe me, young master! Yuma acted like a mother-in-law to us first!”

“mother-in-law?”

“…Keuhum.”

Yuma blushed and cleared his throat. It seemed like something had happened between those three, but Siron didn’t want to dig into it any further so he changed the topic.

“Even so, what on earth did you come here for? What about Dawn? Didn’t you have to help the matriarch?”

“Actually, I came here because of the head of the family.”

“Matriarch?”

“yes.”

Yuma nodded, trying to calm the mood.

As if she had woken up and was about to tell a heavy story, she caught her breath for a while and then stared at Siron with a sad expression.

“The head of the family has run away from home.”

“…”

Shocking words. Siron could not help but believe his ears. He asked again as if he had heard something he could not understand at all.

“What do you mean, the head of the household ran away?”

“Yes… You may not believe it, but he left the castle without a letter, and since he hasn’t returned for several months, both me and Dawning have concluded that he ran away from home.”

“…No matter how old you are, you run away from home.”

Shiron closed his eyes and shook his head. In the meantime, one person who behaves inappropriately for his age.

‘What kind of daughter isn’t it? Looking at what she’s doing, she’s blood and blood related to Lucia.’

Lucia left to find her self while having memories of her previous life.

Glenn had two children and ran away from home even though he was over 1,000 years old.

Siron could not believe that the two were strangers.

“Weren’t you shipwrecked somewhere or in some serious trouble during battle?”

“If that were to be the case, the tomb keeper and the mountain keeper would have contacted us.”

“So. Are you here to ask me to visit the head of the family?”

“well…”

Yuma blurted out his words. Siron narrowed his eyes at him in puzzlement.

“I have a favor to ask, but I know where the matriarch is.”

“…”

“Because I and Prien are still connected.”

Same time. imperial castle.

Victor was treating a man dressed in shabby clothes alone. Although her subjects tried to stop her from allowing herself to be with a subversive person, the moment she heard the man’s name, she used all her authority to chase people out of the throne room.

“Did you say he was Siron’s father?”

anyway. Because I know that no matter how many people there are, they can’t stand against that man.

“That’s right. And he’s Hugo Prien’s younger brother.”

Glenn looked up at the throne with a calm expression.

“So, if you make me your knight, you won’t regret it.”
