Chapter 83: Let’s Go to Countess Rosette’s Mansion
Michel and his wife had finished their activities, and Marin-sensei’s husband had closed the curtains and gone to bed. It seemed that hearing Michel’s voice had excited him, but not enough to go for a second round. If even being held by her husband was painful for Marin-sensei, a doubleheader would probably be pure torture."Robbie-sama, what will you do next?"
Lily asked, so I thought about it. At this point, the main purpose of our nighttime walks had become watching Michel and his wife’s intimate moments. I hadn’t thought about what to do afterward tonight.
"I’d like to go to Countess Rosette’s mansion. Is that alright?"
"That’s fine. Let’s go."
I thought she might object, but she accepted it surprisingly smoothly.
"What’s wrong?"
Lily asked because I wasn’t moving.
"Well, something like that happened before, so I thought you’d be against it."
"Ah, yes. We submitted a report that the Anderson ducal house’s security was excessive, and corrective measures have been taken."
"What do you mean by corrective measures?"
"I can’t go into detail, but while it’s acceptable to take some action against people on the mansion grounds or on the boundary—meaning on top of the wall—moving against people on the road in front of the mansion was deemed excessive. There were quiet objections made to the ducal house from behind the scenes."
"I see. So it’s okay to kill people standing on the wall, but not okay to harm people who fall off the wall and end up on the road?"
"Something like that, yes."
"So that means we can just walk along the road in front of the Anderson ducal house?"
"Correct."
"And of course, if we walk on top of the wall, there’s a chance we’ll be attacked?"
"Yes."
"And we can’t complain even if we are attacked?"
"If it’s just intimidation, that’s one thing, but an attack with killing intent would be more complicated. The people in the mansion can’t tell whether someone on the wall is a thief or Robbie-sama."
"True. But thinking about it that way, the people who attacked us on the road before definitely weren’t thieves, right?"
