What really happened yesterday? Today, a day later, the bullying started again.

The male maid who was diligently cleaning the hallway of the mansion was obviously intentionally blocking my path.

When I tried to pass by an open space next to it, it would notice like a ghost and wipe that area, and when I tried to go back to the other side, it would wipe the floor on that side as well.

Hey. Aren’t you tired?

I only have to walk a few steps, but this requires me to lie down and turn my whole body, so it must be more troublesome and difficult than me. Amazing. Amazing.

But there is one important thing.

There is no need to go this way.

I had nothing to do and nothing to do, so even if it took a little time, I was satisfied with going back…

It’s a gap!

“Huh?!“

As soon as I saw an opening, I quickly squeezed through it.

The maid who was cleaning the floor looked obviously flustered.

“Oh no! My foot slipped!“

Kkudangtang!

When the mop lost moisture, I pretended to kick the bucket full of water that I had kept nearby to replenish the moisture in a timely manner.

I scrubbed and cleaned the floor with all my might, but the floor was soaked with water.

“I’m sorry.“

Oh. People can make mistakes. And if someone apologizes, isn’t it polite to accept it? Where are you looking with the corners of your mouth twitching?

That’s too much. If you had cleared the way first, I wouldn’t have made this mistake.

And I am the next duke of the Ethylbine family, the concubine of Replia. Why are you looking at me like you want to kill me?

“Good luck~!“

He walked down the hallway after blatantly stepping on the puddle on the floor.

Then, the moisture on the shoes was leaving a shoeprint.

Hehe.

After taking my timid revenge on the pitiful male maid, I headed to none other than the parade ground.

Yesterday, Fennel mentioned a pretty new recruit, so I could have mistakenly thought that I was going to see her, but since I wasn’t particularly interested in women, there was no reason for me to bother going to see her and scream like a woman, no, like a man.

Just because my lovely daughter Yui is training at the parade ground.

And for some reason, the girl who used to come to me once a day without fail and act cute like a child suddenly stopped coming.

It’s weird, it’s weird.

So, I headed to the training ground with the thought that Yui had also been bullied and deeply hurt like me.

To be honest, I understand that you curse and harass me, but I absolutely cannot forgive you for cursing and harassing Yui.

She’s already such a cute and delicate child.

That child who became alone because of me and suffered deep emotional wounds.

Because it is not an irresponsible and trashy tolerance to the point of just standing by and watching.

There are some that are a little more moderate, you know.

“Is this it?“

This is my first time at the parade ground, so I don’t know where I am or where Yui is.

“Huh…? That……“

The soldiers who were wiping the sweat off my body with a towel found me like that.

“Right? The concubine who came in recently.“

“Does that seem right?

I said your hair is white.“

My rumor has spread so much that even soldiers I have never met know about me.

“What’s going on?“

A soldier approached and spoke to me.

“……“

I don’t feel well.

Even though he was speaking politely to someone of higher status, he seemed to be ignoring him.

“Yui… Where is Yui?“

“Ah. Yui?“

He clapped his hands as if he had just remembered something, with a smile on his face.

“I’m going to be walking around the parade ground. Why?“

“Drill ground?“

“Yes. I’m working hard on my own.“

As expected… Is this bullying as expected…?!

Alone. Looking at them, it seemed like they were taking a break, but they were walking around the parade ground alone. My heart ached.

But where on the parade ground are you walking around? I was about to ask that too.

“Thank you.“

He quickly nodded and turned around at the sight of her mouth watering.

“Where are you going in such a hurry?“

“Ugh?!“

He held onto my arms and gave me strength. My feet showed no sign of leaving the ground.

Oh, it hurts. You fucking bitch. Hold on tight!

“Hey. What are you doing? Are you crazy?“

“No. I’m not crazy.“

What the hell.

There was no way he could have grabbed the arm of the next duke’s concubine so strongly without being crazy.

“Leave it. If you don’t want to get lost.“

“I think it’ll be okay?“

“You crazy bitch. Are you crazy after all?“

Even though my colleague was hammering home what I wanted to say, this bitch didn’t even think about letting go of my arm.

“Even if she’s my concubine… She’s just a commoner anyway, right? And she even has a child. Heh heh.”

He had lost his sense of shame and was completely ignoring me.

“You can tell just by looking at that body that you’ve seduced Replicia. That bastard.“

“Hey.“

“Listen. What’s the use of a concubine?“

“Ugh……!“

He caressed my cheek as if it were his own.

“There’s no favors in the workshop. Isn’t that right?“

“That’s true… but why is that?“

“Not only did a commoner with a child come in as a concubine, but Lady Replia visits this bastard’s room every night. Then what about the other husbands? Do you think Lady Lake would leave them alone with their personality?“

No, he didn’t leave me alone. You’re pretty smart, aren’t you?

“Of course, the husbands, the people who passed away, and the head of the household also didn’t like this guy.”

Oh. You’re perceptive. Are you a soldier? Or a spy?

“Then the answer will come out. That he is a guy who will be abandoned soon.“

He comes from humble origins. He has great affection but no connections.

Besides, since I was a public enemy, there was no way Replica could protect me alone.

So sooner or later I’ll be abandoned. I guess that’s what this bitch wants to say.

“But here, they are eating us too?“

“What?“

“Honestly, don’t you want to eat a guy who became successful as a concubine of a nobleman?“

“You want to fall behind?“

“No, no. Wouldn’t they side with us and say that we have an excuse to eat this guy and kick him out?“

That could be the case.

Even though she was a concubine, she couldn’t meet many men and have physical conversations like Replica.

If you have connections, you can somehow get away with it, but if you don’t have connections and the country has many enemies, you might be criticized for not taking good care of yourself as a concubine of a nobleman and get kicked out.

“Will that work?“

There is one problem.

No one knows whether Replica’s husbands and vassals will side with a single soldier.

“If it doesn’t work out, you lose. But… don’t you want to eat it? You punk?“

“Ugh…..!“

He grabbed her chin and forcibly turned her so that she was facing him.

“I’m not in my right mind……“

“Ah. Right. I wasn’t in my right mind. But you know… Your appearance is even more insane.“

She said, smacking her lips.

“Didn’t you sell your body to several women before coming here?“

“……“

“What? Is it real? Hehehe. Was it real?“

She burst out laughing at the realization that what she had just said was true.

“Then give it to us too. We’ll do it gently.“

He put his hand on her thigh.

“Please give it to us every day, even if it’s a secret.“

He continued speaking while gently caressing her thigh.

“Stop being a jerk. Get out…….“

Even though everyone in the mansion ignored her, the situation wasn’t so urgent that she would sell her body.

Of course, if necessary, I would sell my body to strengthen Yui’s position. But I’m not in such a desperate situation that I would offer my body to a single soldier. Just as I was about to swear and tell her to get lost.

“Sia?“

Yui appeared.

Yui was breathing heavily.

“You, you are……“

It’s a parent’s heart to only show the good side of things. Did they listen to me? Did they even know what I was being treated like?

“Hey. Your dad. How are you?“

“Hah?!“

The soldier who was holding my arm said this and licked my cheek with his tongue.

Then the expression on Yui’s face disappeared.

Yui’s appearance also disappeared in an instant.

Oh, oh…? Yui. Where did you go…

Phew!

Suddenly, a strong wind blew next to me, and the soldier who had grabbed my arm and forced me to stop walking flew far away.

“You crazy bitch!“

Her colleagues raised their fists.

Phew. Phew.

Uh… Yu, Yui. Why are you so strong?

One shot, one kill. With one punch, the soldiers fell helplessly.

“Sia, are you okay?“

“Uh, uh… It’s okay.“

Dozens of soldiers all fell, and Yui, who had finally calmed down, approached me and looked around my body, asking questions.

I answered bewilderedly.

“Yuiya… Are you strong?“

“No. Not yet. I still need to get stronger.“

“More from there?“

Yui says she needs to become stronger as if she is being chased by something.

What on earth could it be?

Could it be that it’s the same mindset as children who want to become strong like Replica?

I want to be strong like everyone else.

I think it’s great to have monstrous powers that can even defeat a god, and Yuira is no different.

“Yeah yeah. Our Yui. Become stronger.“

It’s only been a little over a month since you started training, but if you’ve gotten this strong, I don’t think I’ll need to see you again later.

“Yes. Please wait.“

“Huh? What are you going to wait for?“

Is there really any need to wait? She will get stronger when she gets stronger. Even now, I can’t see any movement, so even if she shows me that she’s gotten stronger, I definitely won’t know.

“Please wait.“

“Ah… Yeah. Okay.“

Yui took my hand and covered it as she spoke again. I nodded to show that I understood.

“You, Youiya?! Whaaak?! What the heck?!“

A girl approaches Yui, calling her name in a friendly manner.

“Huh?!“

The girl looked at me with her mouth wide open in surprise.

“You’re crazy!“

If this were a cartoon world, the pupils would have turned into hearts.

The girl approached with her eyes sparkling.

“You, Youiya. Who is this beautiful person?“

He said this without being able to take his eyes off me.

“……“

“Aren’t we friends?” Yui answered her question with a cold look.

“Is that your boyfriend?“

“……“

Her face turned bright red at the word boyfriend.

Wait a minute. You’re mistaking me for your boyfriend. Aren’t you part of the Ethylbine family? It’s a bit awkward to say this, but there’s no way you wouldn’t know me here.

By any chance… are you a newbie?

Yesterday, Fennel said that a pretty new girl had come in and asked if we should go see her together. Could it be this girl?

Certainly, it was pretty, just as Fennell said.

Of course, not as much as Yui.

It’s because Yui’s body is small. If they had similar bodies, Yui would definitely be several times, several hundred times prettier!

“Dad. Yui’s dad.“

When asked if he was her boyfriend, she blushed and turned her head without saying anything. I spoke for her.

“Ah…! It’s Yui’s father……“

At the mention of father, the girl’s tension dropped sharply.

Maybe he was trying to do something to me, but he gave up just because I’m married.

That’s fortunate, by the way.

Their relationship doesn’t seem particularly bad.

I wondered if I had been forced to walk around the parade ground. My face wasn’t dark, so I let out a sigh of relief.

“Thank goodness.“

“Huh? What’s so good about that?“

“Yui has a pretty and kind friend like you.“

There seemed to be a bit of an age gap, but age didn’t matter between friends.

If we like each other, we can be friends regardless of age.

He reached out and stroked her hair.

“Heh, hehehehe.“

The girl let out a laugh without thinking, with a relaxed expression.

“Yuiya. I’ll go.“

“Yes… Go in carefully.“

“Yeah. Yui, train carefully too.“

I made sure Yui was okay and there was no need to stay here any longer.

As for the soldiers lying behind, well… they’ll figure it out.

I took a step and entered the mansion.

“What do we do now?“

There’s nothing to do. There’s still some time left for lunch.

“Ugh… gasp… d, I finally found it.“

As I was wondering what to do, the maid came to me, out of breath, and opened her mouth.

Where the hell did you go? He made a face as if asking, “Why am I having to suffer like this because of you?”

“, the Lord of Gaju… gasp. gasp. Looking for you.“

“Are you the lord?“

“Yes. Everyone, the other husbands were also asked to gather, so… Hurry up and go to the master’s house and office.”

Oh, that’s really urgent.

The head of the household personally ordered the husbands, including me, to gather together, so the maid who had been ignoring me is in such a hurry.

“Okay, I got it. I’ll go now.“

“……“

The maid did her job, though…

As soon as he saw my gesture, his expression turned sour.

“Do you have anything else to say?“

“No… there isn’t.“

Just in case, speak to me politely.

Even when I was harassing her, I tried to do it as naturally as possible. In this open place, if I spoke informally and refused to listen to what she said, I could be seen by Repliana, her subordinates, or those who were listening to the head of the household, so I had no choice but to bow my head and leave.

“Idiot.“

You’re getting angry over just that. How pathetic.

And I felt pathetic, even though I was glad that I had gotten some revenge through this.

I headed to the head of the household’s office with a smile on my face.
