Mother of a Villainess

Extra 15 Episode – The Adults’ Scheme 2 – Brium POV

After he finished dealing with Cellars Family, Brium went back to the King’s room to do his work. There, he found the King already sat on his desk with a difficult face.

—Did something happen?

Maybe there was a repulsion from the domestic aristocrats although they looked like they got no obligation to the King’s choices.

Or maybe he got an official protest from the neighboring country.

Although they are a small group, the timing when the party of the princess from the neighboring country came here was a deplorable event. It couldn’t be helped but became very important.

“Did something happen?”

And finally, when Brium asked the question, the King raised his head.

“Nope. I am thinking about Violet-chan’s reward.”

However, the talent that Anna has was bloomed because of the self-defense education that Violet had. You will be taken in dismay if you do not know what is going on in this world.

The medicine that Sieghart received and the antidote that Anna made.

After finishing the analysis of both of them, the court pharmacist was already made a move to scout her.

“Then, what does Violet want?”

Sitting on his desk next to the King’s, he was cleaning up the documents in front of him as he took Anna as a temporary consideration. He made a side glance to the King who kept groaning and asked him a question.

His daughter never became selfish for herself, so it surprised Brium that her wish was able to make the King showed such expression. Brium gave him a suspicious look. And he was a little bit jealous of him.

“What do you think? Hint, it is not a thing.”

“… Please don’t make it complicated and say it already.”

“Uhh– You are no fun! Well, I don’t mind. The reward that she wants is the reduction of penalty for one of the condemned ladies, Christine Macdowell.”

— As I thought, our daughter is a real angel.

As the King was able to guess what was inside Brium’s head, he gave a bitter smile to him.

“Really, if it is about Violet-chan, your personality change so much. To be honest, as the restriction against the domestic aristocrat, severe punishment towards all of the parties included is a must as an apology to the neighboring country.”

“Of course it is. Moreover, the head of this case is Marquis Macdowell. As Your Majesty had heard, the one who planned it was Lady Reynolds. But you should not raise him as a victim. As long as he agreed and was involved in the plan, the Marquis has the responsibility to it as well. Besides, it seems that the Marquis also gave Lettie some gifts outside of this case.”

“Yes. Moreover, it is well known that Miss Macdowell was hostile towards Violet-chan. So, although she had nothing to do with the current case, I could not just reduce her penalty like that.”

“……..”

Now that he knew the true nature of the King’s worry, Brium also lost in his thought and closed his mouth. Although they could reduce the penalty, they also needed to keep it secret from the public.

Moreover, for now, if she herself was claimed not guilty, there was no way she could live peacefully as a former aristocrat as the danger was increasing.

No matter how peaceful this country is, criminals exist just like in other countries. It was not a good idea to release a chick to its predator without taking any action.

“… Well. It is now like there is no way to do it. Until the situation has calmed down, we need to give her our protection for a while. And in public, it is known that Christine Macdowell was punished as well, but it is not a problem for a commoner’s daughter to go to the monastery for a while as an apprentice and return to the town.”

“…! As expected from Brium! Let’s go with that plan.”

As they reached a conclusion, the King proceed with his brush as he was convinced. It seems he wrote an article on parchment in front of him.

Waiting for the King to finish his writing, Brium asked once again.

“—Why, you gave the title Count to Cellars?”

Cellars Family’s raised rank was not decided only by the King, but also the cabinet minister who was called in an emergency meeting. The other aristocrat also gave their opinions from the edge. Brium thought that the King had something in mind so he chose to give his agreement, but actually, he himself wondered why.

If he only wanted to give a reward for the achievement, there is no problem to give only Viscount title to the family.

…Unless there was another reason behind it.

“Hmm…. Well…” The King gave a long pause before gave his answer.

“If it is only Viscount rank, they might be treated wrongly by the other aristocrat, right? Their family has the potential, but if they didn’t hide behind the Count title, I thought they will be drowned by the current.”

“… I hear that in the meeting. What is the truth?”

Towards the stone head King, Brim had run out of numbness and then took a pile of documents and put it in front of the King.

“I know I know. I will say it so please don’t put that mountain of papers in front of me. That, if you think about marriage with the royal family, being a Viscount is a little too low, isn’t it? But the title Count is still within range. …Miss Anna is a good girl after all.”

“That’s why.” And after the King said that, Brium silently took another bunch of documents and pilled it up with the previous one.

The King pretended to be frivolous, but he was smarter than anyone else. Brium knew that it surpassed even himself. 

In fact, they acted as “The King is not able to raise his head to the Prime Minister” to make space for some carelessness of their surroundings.

“… It’s surprising. I never think that we got such wish.”

And then when he went back to his own office, Brium was alone.

He knew that his daughter is an angel, but he didn’t expect that the King accept that wish of her without any protest.

(Marriage with royalty. Maybe that means… Well, it has nothing to do with us though.)

When he just arrived at one conclusion, Brium quickly rounded up his thoughts and started to get ready to go back to his beloved family.


T/N

    There was something between Seig and Anna in the original timeline but it was ruined by the villainess Violet. Was there something going on this time too? I didn’t see them interacting even a bit. But this story is so full of holes and unknown perspectives that anything can happen as long as the author wants.

    Thank you very much for the translation 😊
