I Shall Survive Using Potions!

Chapter 108



(Mariel)Eeeh? Carlos is still alive?

(Kaoru)At least a few days before I received his request. It seems that he will take several years to die of old age as well.

I explained so to Viscountess MarielvonReifell.

Well, he can possibly died suddenly in this hour, so I wont say anything irresponsible, such as Hes alive.

An old body can slightly change at all times and its not strange at all.

I think hes going to be fine because I had given him a potion just to make sure.

With this, its the end of Investigation Phase and the Revenge Phase can now begin.

(Kaoru)I will now carry out Carlos request. Can I get your cooperation?

*nod nod nod*

Alright, its time to commence operation.

I dont intend to help the humans.

This is a request from Carlos. For this girl and his former master.

Therefore, I cant afford for another people to get involved with Mariel, who will be the current head of Reifell Viscounty. The one who can get involved has to be the same position and thought as Carlos.

(Kaoru)Well then, let me meet the dogs that are being kept here.

***************

(Resident A)what, is that?

(Resident B)Its giving me the creeps

The people near the residence are looking with fear and loathing.

Its a somewhat luxurious yet ordinary residence, much like a slightly wealthy merchant or a reignless noble is living there.

Yes, nothing is wrong.

Except if they dont have many crows flocking on its roof, the trees and above the fences that are surrounding the manor. There are also a large number of dogs sitting along the perimeter of its fences as well.

(Aragon)Damn it, what the hell is this!? Why are there so many crows and dogs surrounding this house!? Did someone harassed or fed them!?

AragonvonReifell.

The younger brother of Mariels father, the second son of the late Viscount Reifell, and Mariels uncle as well who is currently 28 years old.

For the sake of having a little distant age gap from her uncle, the 20-year-old Mariels father at that time, had her, who is now 14 years old, resulting in a 14 years of age gap.

In aristocrats marriages, it is common to have an over 20 years of age difference and its also not unusual to get married with their uncle as well. Especially, if they want to protect their familys bloodlines and such

Even if hes from a noble family, the second son does not succeed as the head of the family and can only be a Reserve. In addition, when the eldest son, who is the successor, has a child, the meaning of Reserve will be affected significantly.

Its obvious if the child is a boy but, it also wont change even if its a girl as well. In such a case, it might be fine if the second or the next son from a noble family can be a groom candidate for another family and get adopted there. Its not bad for a political marriage due to the fact that they can connect to his family.

Therefore, if theres a problem with the eldest son, the Reifell Viscounty naturally had to pick a groom for Mariel.

Its not a problem for Mariel who can choose a family with a good personality and a good appearance out of a large number candidates. The Reifell Viscounty can get a strong connection with a strong household, that is if the husband or perhaps her grandchildren can be the head of the Viscounty in which they will be adopted to the Reifell household.

Reifells eldest son was clever and healthy and Mariel herself was also a beautiful and intelligent girl. Even if Reifell Viscountys two children has grown healthy and one of them falls into an accident or sickness, the family can still be saved. If the situation is like this, everyone can still be happy.

Yes, except for Uncle Aragon, who is impossible to take over the position and can only be a government official along with his People.

And he had made his debut that was a once in a lifetime do-or-die gamble.

He hired some shady individuals to kill his brother and sister-in-law. He then said, I was asked by my brother if they encountered an unlikely event and forced his 14-year-old niece to marry him.

The niece, who is a Good girl and was loved and respected by her parents, has judged that she could not go against his words by any means.

And, as you might expect, the niece, Mariel, will be a 15-year-old adult soon and will be preparing for her marriage at the same time. That is, to be the head of Reifell Viscounty.

Under normal circumstances, the man who got adopted wont be the successor, and will merely be the Viscountess husband. Otherwise, when they got divorced, or if his wife dies and he remarries, they will end up with a complete stranger who is unrelated at all.

But this time its different. Aragon also has the right to take the inheritance, and they will come to Aragon if his brothers lineage is over. In other words, there wont be any problem if something happened with Mariel.

In fact, the assault was planned to kill all of his brothers family including Mariel. Although Mariel did not travel together and is the only one left now, the result is still not a problem.

He will trample down the young and beautiful daughter of his detestable brother, who has an inferiority complex and has all the peerage and wealth, and make her serve her own uncle. That sadistic-like pleasure had an indescribable sweet smell.

If she rejected, he could just kill her with those shady individuals again. Even in that case, the peerage position will still fall into his lap.

By thinking so, Aragon had so much leeway.

Although there will be a problem if incidents continue in a short period of time, it will be perfect if he got married to Mariel and an Accident occurred before she had a child.

Also, even if her child had born, she only needs to be involved in an accident together with her child. Thus, the inheritance right for the one who got adopted to the Reifell Viscounty wont be in a dangerous state.

However, those speculations became unnecessary because, as expected, Mariel accepted his marriage. Theres no problem regarding thatdue to the fact that the first and second place-in-line of the Reifell Viscounty are going to marry.

A few months left.

A few months left, until Mariel becomes a 15-year-old adult.

That is where he will have those exciting days.

(Aragon)What in the world is this.? An ill omen?

And the strange behavior that lasts every day has become one of the rumors that had already widely spread while he wasnt looking.

A residence surrounded by lots of crows and dogs.

Is this a witch or demon dwelling?

Is the person living here have a contract with the devil?

The person who are spreading the rumors added more and more information in their rumors.

The noble couples and their son who were living there seem to have been killed.

They said someone will be adopted to that family and going to marry the only remaining, 14-year-old girl who will be the current head..

Hey, dont tell me, that person

Who owns those crows and dogs? Is it the demon or perhaps the noble couples?

And the house is gradually smeared with crows and dogs feces.

Not only the crows and dogs that are surrounding the vicinity, but also the crows that had flown away from other places, and the dogs that were trotting around the residence as well. They just took a dump and left. Seeing it, there was no doubt that no person was involved in this.

After all, This is the world where the existence of a Goddess is an absolute fact.

***************

(Crow)My work for today is over! Give me the reward!

(Kaoru)Alright, alright. Okay, here, minced meat, bread and corn, right? I brought the minced meat that is rich in fat. And also, I put it in a bag so that it will be easy for you to carry it back to your nest.

(Crow)Ohh, isnt this a great service!? Alright! I will work hard for tomorrow as well!

The crow is happy and starts eating. Many of his friends are already eating and have a take-away bag next to them.

(If I bring this back, neither my wife nor children will complain. I have found a good job, or should I say, a good feeding ground)

The crow thought that it would be great if this work could last for a long time, but did not think that the people living in that residence could endure that long. In addition, the content of the request will increase a little from tomorrow as well.

(There will be more work tomorrow, but its not a problem as it seems fun and our food quality will go up too anyway, so its a big welcome!)

And the dogs who are led by the three dogs has arrived in a pack.

(Kaoru)Thanks for your hardwork! Eat until your stomach is full, okay? I will be counting on you guys again tomorrow!

The three dogs who had been leading the pack, are now next to the girl and ignored their food while the other dogs began to eat after bowing their heads down.

The three dogs on the girls side were having a stern look compared to the dogs that are currently eating nonchalantly. Yes, it was as if they were standing in front of a large bear to protect their master.
