Chapter 57. The fact the Jaod Viscount had to hide even killing Milsy's parents was exactly that he has an illegitimate child.

Sad but in this world a noble having an illegitimate child wasn't that serious a matter.

The Jaod Viscount will fight greatly with his wife, but not a serious problem to the extent of killing a person.

But the mother who gave birth to that child was the problem.‘Having an affair with a married woman the liver is big.’ Rosalyn Zelling.

The wife of Zelling Count who is the Jaod Viscount's friend, and had one son between with the husband.

That child known as the Zelling Count's only son was exactly the Jaod Viscount's son.

If this fact is known no way the Zelling Count would leave the Jaod Viscount alone.

Before informing this fact to the Zelling Count, I first ordered Butcher to find out whether the Jaod Viscount and the Zelling Count's wife are still meeting, mainly where they meet.

“Don't worry, Madam! I'll even find out the Jaod Viscount's panties color!”

Butcher who clenched both fists and ran out after that for a week didn't even return to the castle, and chased the Jaod Viscount.

There were many escorts around the Jaod Viscount too, but no one noticed Butcher who was excited at the mission received after a long time.

And a week later, Butcher who became shabby whether not even washed well returned biting the information.‘As expected our territory whatever else the talent pool is okay.’ I completely forgot the fuss of obtaining an administrator a while ago and satisfiedly saw the information Butcher brought.

“Fortunately still the two are meeting.”

If not meeting almost had to go a more complicated path, fortunate.

Butcher who washed clean and came out shook his head like a dog and said.

“The two are no joke! Meeting and...! Madam, I really had a hard time listening to that. Hiding under the bed and listening even wanting to cover the ears but afraid of missing the information Madam said to ask so couldn't cover the ears either...!”

Butcher pretended to cry heueong.

“Right, right. You worked hard.”

With that one anecdote alone felt keenly how much Butcher worked hard.

Then Butcher quickly held out both hands.

“I worked hard so give a reward!”

“Reward? What to give?”

Then Butcher grinned and saw the apple Bella brought.

“Today I'll feed the apple to Madam!”

“Can't just eat with my hand?”

“Last time Bella fed! I also have to treat with Madam's loveliness!”

Bella looked at Butcher with sharp eyes.

“You... from last time continuously aiming for the seat of serving Madam?”

“This time is a reward! Madam giving as a reward! Come, Madam. Quickly.”

I sighed and sat on the chair.

Then Butcher smiled and put the prettily peeled apple into my mouth.

“Madam seems the cutest when eating something.”

“That's right. The cheeks puffing up like a rabbit...”

“Looks soft.”

I tried hard to ignore the two people's gazes looking at me with satisfied faces.

As expected have to age quickly and grow tall.

I ate the apple, and saw the rest of the information Butcher investigated.

The Jaod Viscount and the Zelling Count's wife usually had meetings on Saturday afternoon, and the main meeting place was an inn in the city.

Considering the schedule of the Zelling Count who enjoys hunting going to the hunting ground on Saturday and returning on Sunday.‘Seems have to have an affair considering even the schedule.’“Then for now shall we meet the Zelling Count?”* * *Meeting the Zelling Count wasn't that hard.

Since invitations to new parties arrived every day to me who came as a guest of the Summerhild ducal house.

Especially after participating in the charity party together with Jacques last time the invitations increased more.

Perhaps the calculation of being able to invite even Jacques who rarely participates in parties in addition to me was underlying.

I among them, just had to choose a party the Zelling Count and the Jaod Viscount would participate in.‘If came to the south alone would have had a bit of trouble receiving invitations. Coming as a guest of the ducal house such things are convenient.’ Arriving at the party hall I exchanged greetings with people and naturally headed near the Zelling Count.

Just the Jaod Viscount was also together so perfect.

“Hello, Zelling Count. Jaod Viscount.”

“Oh! This isn't the Duchess Valfruga! To meet the Duchess like this. It's an honor!”

The Zelling Count smiled brightly and welcomed me.

Until now even greeting me subtly watched whether can make a connection with the Summerhild ducal house, but the Zelling Count really sincerely welcomed me.

I who was flustered at the unfamiliar favor suddenly saw the Zelling Count's bald head and realized.‘Ah, because of the hair loss medicine.’ As expected, there was a reason in welcoming me.

“By the way there's something curious when will that magic medicine that grows hair enter the south?”

The Zelling Count lowered his voice and whispered to me.

“Arrived in the south, but because the people who ordered are many. Since making directly in our territory it takes a bit of time.”

“Ah ah, then can't be helped. Still by chance how about the order a bit...”

The Zelling Count had a lot of interest in the hair loss medicine.

I appropriately answered the Zelling Count's questions, and ordered peach juice from the passing servant.

Now it was time to change the topic from the hair loss medicine.

“The south seems good because many fruits come out. Especially I like peaches, here can eat as much as wanted so good.”

“Like peaches? Our territory's peaches are also famous for being delicious. Later I'll invite once.”

At the Zelling Count's words I looked around and asked.

“Then thank you. Can other people also go together? Everyone likes peaches?”

Then the Jaod Viscount answered with a troubled face.

“I have peach allergy.”

“Really?”

Whether a fact first knowing the Zelling Count also asked with a puzzled face.

“You had peach allergy?”

“Yes, what. Right.”

“Oh dear, amazing. Our son also has peach allergy.”

At the Zelling Count's words for a moment the Jaod Viscount and the Zelling Count's wife's gazes collided.

The Zelling Count's wife smiled and tried to pass the situation.

“Peach allergy isn't that rare.”

After that, the story passed peaches and moved to when the Zelling Count will invite us.* * *And the next day, an anonymous letter arrived to the Zelling Count.

“Count. One letter arrived, written on the outside that the Count must open directly.”

“To me?”

The Zelling Count received the letter the servant handed without particular suspicion.

The content written in the letter was shocking.[Your son is another person's child. If can't believe go to the inn in the city on Saturday.]

“Daringly who...!”

Ordinarily would have thought someone played a bad prank.

Then suddenly recalled the peach allergy story exchanged at the party.‘Come to think of it no one with peach allergy in our family...’“Count, are you okay?”

The servant carefully checked the Count's complexion.

“This. Know who sent the letter?”

“D-don't know.”

“Right?”

The Zelling Count hardened his face with anger, and glared at the letter.

Then, the Zelling Count's wife entered the room.

“Honey, about the invitation sending to the Duchess Valfruga this time... Why is the face like that?”

At the wife's words the Zelling Count unconsciously hid the note in his hand.

“No, nothing. Saw someone played a prank.”

“Prank? What prank to be like that? Let me see.”

“Fine. Nothing good for you to see. More than that what's the problem with the invitation?”

Reassuring the wife the Zelling Count chewed the content of the note again.‘The inn in the city on Saturday...’* * *The Zelling Count raided the scene of his wife and the Jaod Viscount having an affair.

The angry Zelling Count trying to cut the Jaod Viscount with a sword on the spot, the people in the inn stuck and blocked they say.

Thanks to that these days in the social world whenever gathering the topic was that story.

“My goodness, the Jaod Viscount really with the friend's wife...”

“Really no one to trust.”

“Is the Zelling Count's wife also really crazy? How can have an affair with her own husband's friend?”

“Did you hear that rumor too?”

“What rumor?”

“That house's son is actually the Jaod Viscount's son...”

“Oh my, oh my! My goodness! Is that real? Somehow. Seeing seemed not even a little resembling the Count!”

I sipped juice and listened to the stories people were doing.‘Um, the rumor is spreading well.’ No need for me to spread the rumor.

At the rare large scandal people attached flesh to the story and spread on their own.

Even the peach allergy story I never spread, people who found out somewhere were busy spreading the rumor.

“Heard the Zelling Count drove out the Count's wife and child and filed a lawsuit? To pay alimony and compensation money it will be a big deal.”

“That's what I'm saying. Whether those two people are in a situation to pay the compensation money.”

“The Jaod Viscount wouldn't matter. A while ago received investment saying found an item that will unconditionally hit big.”‘That has to be real.’ I endured wanting to burst into big laughter and put the drink glass to my mouth.‘By the way is Butcher doing the work I ordered well?’* * *At the time Felia went to the party hall, Butcher found the Jaod Merchant Union head's house.

There were knights guarding in front of the door, but such things couldn't even be obstacles.

Even received the number of knights guarding the mansion and the mansion internal map through Milsy.‘If caught in such a place no qualification to become Madam's vassal!’ Butcher lightly crossed the fence and headed inside the mansion.

Thinking of the things that will happen from now a humming came out naturally, but still had to kill the footsteps and advance carefully.

Butcher who headed to the innermost room carefully confirmed once more whether the mask covered the face well, and opened the door.

“Wh-what!”

Trem who was in the study flustered and looked at Butcher.
