Mushoku Tensei: Reincarnated as a Beast Race

POV: Ghislaine Adoldia

Recently, I experienced a completely new feeling.

I didn’t really know what it was. It was uncomfortable and left a strange taste in my mouth, as if something were wrong, even when everything seemed right. It was truly new. Unexpected. Unwelcome.

It happened for the first time when Rygar introduced me to his master, Verdia Solarion.

A powerful and wise mage. A magnificent, seasoned strategist. And she had those golden, sun-bright hair, curious and lively eyes that made you sympathize with her almost without realizing it.

Verdia was the kind of woman who filled a room, but gently, not forcefully. She spoke calmly, but her words carried weight. She knew what she was saying and made everyone around her feel like they could trust her.

Mentally, I had already accepted that Rygar wanted to take her as his wife. He wanted that even before he met me, actually.

And that wasn’t a problem. Or at least, I thought it wasn’t?

I always imagined that Rygar would have more wives than just me. It was natural. He was Rygar. Strong, charismatic, determined... many would desire him, and he would have reasons to desire several of them.

When Eris became Rygar’s wife, I was happy for her. Eris was no longer the aggressive child I had trained in the Boreas mansion. She was now an admirable, strong woman.

I think that, until the moment she became a Sword King, I still saw her a bit as that bold, impulsive girl.
