I Became a Villain who Receives Obsession

4 – past liquidation

After Reina left, I walked around the mansion.

Having come out of the room after a long time, it was to learn the structure of the mansion and to examine the servants.

Lian Altane, who currently has the worst reputation in this mansion and the territory.

Walking down the long corridor, I felt keenly why he was later called a wicked man.

“Hick!”

Of course, the servants I run into occasionally look at me and tremble.

“No, no… !.”

‘What the hell is going wrong?’

Until I fell face down on the floor until I disappeared from sight with an expression as if I had seen a ghost.

Just by looking at this, you could see how bad a person named Lian Altane was, but the problem was the appearance of the servants.

These were girls who had just become adults or were looking to become adults.

Among them, there was a child who looked younger than Lisa.

All of them were wearing black chokers around their necks, and I asked just in case, but fortunately they were for decoration.

‘I almost gave up on being human.’

The more I walked around the mansion, the more my evaluation of Altane went through the floor.

“Lord, Master.”

Risha, who had come to my side before I knew it, called me.

Since she was still my maid, it was clear that she had come after receiving a report that a madman was roaming around the mansion.

“Why?”

“Others, are you going out?”

Even though we had quite a few conversations, Risha still used to stiffen when dealing with me.

Let’s reassure you a little.

“I was just walking around the mansion. no problem.”

“… .”

Was my expression too hard?

Lisa was still rolling her eyes with an anxious expression.

When she looked in the direction she was looking at, the servants she had met earlier gathered together and were looking this way.

Everyone had anxious eyes.

… Perhaps.

“Or are you uncomfortable being with me?”

“Oh, no. isn’t it… !”

Looks right.

Come to think of it, from the point of view of the employees, it might have been that the division commander visited on a holiday.

In addition, if the division commander is known as a madman, such a reaction would be natural.

I tried to restore my image in my own way, but it seems to have turned into a negative.

Just go back

“Let’s go back now. There is no need to follow.”

“yes… .”

Now that I knew the general thoughts of the users about Altane, I decided to go back.

Any longer could have the opposite effect.

I stopped Risha, who was trying to follow, and hurriedly moved to the housekeeper’s room.

It seems that there are more things to do before admission.

*

“Pha——!”

“after… .”

“I thought I was dying… .”

Immediately after Lian returned to the room, the maids gathered in the lobby all sighed.

The cold, hardened atmosphere was relieved in an instant.

Among them was Lisa.

“To talk to someone like that every day… Lisa, I respect you… .”

“Lisha, are you really okay? Thanks to you, they won’t lay a hand on us… .”

“it’s okay. till now… You didn’t.”

The maids gathered around Lisa in groups of three or five.

All of them had experience serving Lian before.

The day when I was called without a break, and became my owner’s desire jar.

If you resist, you will be kicked out. There was no worse punishment than this for those who had nowhere to go.

Because they knew that pain and fear more than anyone else, they felt sorry and sorry that Risha, who was younger than them, waited on her master for nearly a week instead of a day.

The sharp-looking maid said to Risha.

“really? I am not that kind of person at all.”

“… Really. I rather thought the older sisters were doing it to scare them.”

“He! Do you still say that when you see Rowen, who was taken away with blood after a while?”

“that’s… .”

“uh? Didn’t Loen quit?”

“Ha, the kid who quit would be dragged away at night covered in blood? It’s not clear what he did. If you’re like that normally, Princess Aistin couldn’t stand it yesterday and called you a bastard.”

Just as she said, not too long ago, a maid named Loen disappeared from the mansion.

Some servants, including the owner, said she quit her job and went back to her hometown, but she had already witnessed it.

In the middle of the night, someone lifted the bloody Rowen and left the mansion.

“There was a reason for giving a lot of money to former slaves who were not even commoners. When it’s time to throw it away, dispose of it and take it back.”

Everyone swallowed saliva at her words.

Everyone’s expression was dark.

But Lisa wasn’t like that.

It was a short time, but she saw the opposite of the rumors she had heard while living close to her master for the past few days.

He didn’t touch her, and he never got angry at her frequent mistakes.

who is her owner

He is the tyrant of ‘Mene’, who is famous for not knowing anyone in the neighborhood.

Not only did he abandon the management of the territory, but his reputation from the surrounding nobles reached atrocious,

Everyone except Risha is a person who says that Rian is trash and a devil.

– The day has not yet been resolved. to come in

-There’s not much to do. I just want you to bring me a meal.

However, what that person showed was different from Risha’s expectations.

It was a treatment she had never received as a slave.

I heard words I never thought would come out of the mouth of a tyrant.

“Don’t worry too much, Lisa. Even if no one else knows, I will definitely protect you.”

“A little bit ahead. With a little more, we can afford a house. Let’s live together then.”

The maids approached Risha, who was still, and comforted her.

They probably don’t believe what they say.

Risha muttered involuntarily and stepped back.

“What’s wrong, Lisa?”

“Oh, no.”

―Are the servants still homeless?

Why does that word come to mind all of a sudden?

Risha shook her head and repeated herself.

Don’t be fooled by his appearance.

Like the other maids, she will reveal her claws to herself someday.

You have to be careful not to fall for him.

Risha made up her mind again.

*

“Risha.”

“Yes Yes!”

“Are you all gathered?”

“Everything you said… We got together.”

Right now, in front of me, there were 10 servants from inside the mansion, including Risha.

The day after I walked around the mansion, I had Risha gather all the servants to my room.

The reason was simple.

I set the heavy box down on the desk hard enough to make a noise.

The thud drew everyone’s attention to the box.

I took one of the pockets from the box and threw it at the butler in front of me.

“One hundred gold coins.”

“… Yes?”

What I threw at the butler was 100 gold.

If there was one thing I felt while walking around the mansion yesterday, it was that all the servants were made up of young people.

The reason why they didn’t run away from Altane Mansion, which is called a tyrant.

Looking at Risha, who returned late, he found out that they were all slaves.

They couldn’t even dare to go too far or their hometown was destroyed, and they were collecting money while suffering all sorts of persecution in Altane’s mansion.

Still, he must have had a conscience, but Altane was paying them a salary and working.

I don’t know if it’s just because the money is rotting and overflowing.

“My lord, what the hell is this… .”

“It’s a week.”

“Yes?”

“If anyone wants to leave this house, take this and leave within a week.”

Perhaps among these… No, most will be saving money to get away. It’s just that I couldn’t show it in front of Altane.

I decided to give them money and send them out.

If you’re going to run away anyway, giving even a penny and sending it away will have less repercussions.

When I finished my words, the eyes of the attendants in the seat widened.

It was an expression that I never expected to come out of my mouth.

Risha, who was next to her, also took a deep breath as if she was greatly surprised.

“I know most of you are saving your paychecks to leave this place. So we want to help with that.”

“… what.”

“Why?”

“What are you thinking again?”

“Oh, sister!”

A maid with red hair approached me.

Risha stopped her.

Judging from the eyes of others, it seems that she is the real power among the servants.

No matter how much he is a servant, it is unacceptable for his master to show this kind of behavior. If it was another noble, it would be severely punished. In other words, it was also that she was determined.

There, the opponent is a tyrant.

It would have required considerable determination. It’s probably something I’ve been putting up with for years.

“Leave this, Lisa. Because I have to say something.”

“Sister, don’t do that… .”

“done. Listen to it.”

When I raised my hand, Risha reluctantly backed away.

I made eye contact with the maid who was still frowning.

Perhaps he was trying to recount what Altane had done up until now.

The things Altane had done so far were beyond my control.

So, to make up for this, I decided to give them freedom and some sort of severance pay.

If you want, I’m prepared to give you at least one cheek.

“villagers… No, do you think it makes sense for someone who didn’t even care about his own territory to suddenly be merciful to servants?”

“Originally, mercy comes suddenly.”

“Do you know what else you will do? We are already full-on.”

The maid rolled up her sleeves.

Her arms were full of all sorts of scars and bruises.

“That this is only part of it, the person in question must know.”

I’m at a loss for words.

The reason why she and the maids behind her always wore gloves and long sleeves.

I didn’t touch Risha, so I didn’t have any problems, but the ones before that didn’t.

I expected it, but when I witnessed it myself, I was blown away.

I felt ashamed of myself for being possessed by this disgusting bastard named Altane.

Even though I didn’t do it, now it’s what I did.

The maid continued as if that wasn’t the end.

“There were times when I rather miss my days as a slave. Because it didn’t fit.”

“… .”

I stopped to speak.

Tears were flowing from the maid’s eyes before she knew it.

I waited patiently for her words.

Her anger was understandable.

“… I am disgusted with the past me who had even a hint of gratitude for you.”

“sister… .”

The maid slowly picked up the money bag.

She met my eyes for a moment and soon,

—Tuk

I threw the pouch in my face.

“Lord, master!”

“Why is he doing this? really!”

“It’s because I couldn’t manage it. Please punish me!”

nose was wrinkled

In an instant, my room became noisy.

The maid was dragged outside by the servants.

Even as I was being dragged away, I could clearly hear her screaming.

“You know I don’t know? You’re trying to dispose of us like Loen!”

Nothing hit her. That’s how much the things that had accumulated while under Altane exploded, so it was understandable.

The servants, including Risha, didn’t seem like that, but that wasn’t what was important to me right now.

The words the maid shouted while being dragged out.

‘Loen?’

It’s a familiar name.

There was only one person I know of who had the name Loen in the game.

Loen is one of those who team up with Altane to destroy the world in the latter half of the game.

“God Slayer Loen… .”

Possessing superior strength and a ruthless personality to the point of being given the title of God Slayer,

Because it was the name of the strongest villain in the work.
