Pseudo-Villaines

Rat

The bandits who dared to attack the noble children's hunting troupe became a hot topic among the people of the upper class Dublin kingdom. On the surface, they gave appreciation to the knights who were trying to protect their master's life. But behind his back, they chided the knights for their incompetence in preventing such a thing from happening.

Jean learns that based on the information Mar gave her days after she participated in a hunting event. In fact, Count Baldric to behead the Knight who was then with his son.

Jean who was now reading a letter from Mar smiled cunningly. She may still be 12, but with all the kindness and abominations she has seen and felt, Jean matures faster than any child her age.

And because of that maturity, he knows what his priorities are and what he has to do in the middle of a situation like this. He folded the paper and burned it with a burning fire from a candle.

Jean felt something move in her bed. At the same time, a large and gentle sensation touched his feet. He lifted the blanket and smiled softly. Selena was sleeping next to him. Of course, he did not wear any clothes at all.

Last night was very excited. He could not forget how delicious it was as his proud butcher sticks roamed every corner of Selena's secret cave. Selena herself hugged Jean tightly as she received multiple attacks from her.

Jean kisses Selena's forehead and fixes her sleeping position. She also covers Selena's naked body. After that, Jean got up from her bed, wearing a black robe, and a mask. Then, he jumped from the window of his room located on the second floor and infiltrated out of Uncle Hull's house.

As always, his main goal was the headquarters he had funded from the results of the people using his services. From the outside, the house that became his headquarters might already look very old. But if you go inside, the furniture and furniture inside is still well maintained. Thanks to Mar who takes care of this place, the inside of the house is always clean and comfortable.

"Welcome, Jean. Please sit down, I'll make you a drink."

Jean sat at the dining table in the kitchen. Not long after, Mar came up with a glass of warm apple cider mixed with honey. Jean drank it with solemnity. The sour and sweet taste that comes from apples is very suitable when combined with the sweet taste of honey.

"As usual Mar, the drinks you make are delicious."

"Thank you for your compliment, Jean. It is an honor for me to serve you."

Jean laughed a little. He leaned his body and raised one leg to the other. This is his attitude when he is relaxed.

"So Mar, I want to know more about the Baldric family's current condition. Tell me everything you know."

Mar scrunched his forehead. Why did Jean think of Earl Baldric? Aren't there still many other families who are much more vulnerable? Jean realizes Mar's doubts. He exhaled and explained to Mar.

"But, you once said don't let personal problems make us lose, right? Aren't you licking your own spit right now?"

Jean tried to hold back the laughter. Keenly. Maybe if it was someone else, Mar wouldn't have survived after he said that.

"Well, that means it doesn't matter if personal problems turn out to be beneficial for us? Take it easy Mar, you are all the useful people I gathered. So there's no way I'm bringing destruction on purpose to you guys."

This time it was Mar who breathed his breath. Jean has saved herself from her nightmares, so she decides to trust him. Mar began to explain the ins and outs of Earl Baldric.

To be honest, nothing interested Jean. Basically, he knew it all. But Jean's interest was in the ongoing conflict between the Baldric family and their knights and their conflict with some other nobles.

"Did the matter happen because the Baldric family beheaded some of their own knights?"

"No, actually a rift has appeared a long time ago. Their knight captain was the younger brother of the now Earl Baldric. The younger brother was ambitious to become an Earl but their predecessor felt that the older brother was more worthy.

"Therefore, the younger brother who was appointed as captain was dissatisfied. He tried to take down his brother at any cost. And the tragedy of the beheading was just an excuse for the sister to take the brother down."

As soon as he finished hearing Mar's explanation, Jean immediately stood up. An idea was drawn in his head. Why not just use this opportunity to destroy the Baldric family? He recalled that the Baldric family was one of the families involved in his abduction and torture. This is a good opportunity to destroy them!

"Well Mar, the next destination has been set! Let's destroy the Baldric family and take all their possessions!"

"You're like bandits, Mr. Jean."

"It doesn't matter, does it? We are not a holy organization or anything like that. We live off the evils and greed of others. Well, we're rats. And rats can live anywhere."

Mar just shook his head but he agreed with Jean. Okay, he might have to slightly prepare the stage for his master.
