That Man’s 101st Bad Ending

There are bad dogs in the world-2

When I think back to my childhood, I couldn’t deny that my mother harbored an anomaly.

That was the reason why I didn’t think he was a person who didn’t suit Taylor.

Because he prioritized family over family, and people over honor.

If it was me who grew up influenced by such a mother,

It could be said that Yuria was influenced more by her father than by her mother.

may be rebellious.

I don’t know if affection was important to YuRia, but it was clear that she wanted to get her mother’s attention.

There were definitely times when I was obedient, and it was true that the bullying of me intensified after my mother died.

I can’t penetrate people’s psychology, so I don’t know the exact reason,

I wondered if my mother was the reason why my personality was even more twisted.

However, now that I think about it, it was all useless, so wasn’t it twisted in the first place?

Yuria’s mania was something that had been planted inside her from the beginning.

It’s not anyone’s fault, it’s just something that was decided.

It must have been a problem from the point of wanting to resent Yuria in the first place.

It is true that I have negative feelings for Yuria, but I am trying to forget those feelings now.

I didn’t want to mess with my personal feelings.

At least before I see the end with my own eyes, shouldn’t I be calm above all else?

Looking at the tombstone alone, he exhaled a small breath.

When I come here next year, everything will be over.

Please, I just wanted things to work out the way I thought.

[I’ll be waiting for you in a dark place. Probably from a pretty high place.]

When I opened the last letter I received from Reynolds, there was a description of the waiting place.

I think it is probably the place where I saw the willow tree last time.

An alley on a hill below the willow tree, filled with buildings.

Among them, there was a wall with Taylor’s sentence embedded in it, so I realized that it meant that place and turned my steps.

It had been a long time since I had met Reynolds.

Even though they had met before going to the north, they needed to check how they were now.

Will you follow me as time goes by, or will you make plans to stick with YuRia?

If it was just Renald, he could tell that kind of thing just by looking at his eyes.

As I entered the alley, a figure caught my eye through the dark shadows.

In-young, who found me, greeted me politely and opened her mouth.

“Are you here, Bocchan?”

After a long time, the impression of Leonald has changed quite a bit.

It should be said that he has become much smaller, he seemed to have aged for several years, as if he had suffered a lot of hardships of his own.

Even so, having come this far means that you can trust it completely now.

A lot of emotion was read in Ronald’s eyes.

The most notable among them was his trust in me, which was just unexpected.

I don’t know what he was thinking while I was gone, but it wouldn’t hurt.

“This is the beginning. Because Yuria Taylor obtained the family head.”

“I can’t do anything right now anyway. Did you put your father underground?”

“It doesn’t seem like they really touched it. He probably knows how the head of household works, so he probably didn’t say much about the temporary head of household.”

After all, her father knew in advance that Yuria would do something.

At least I won’t do anything to hurt myself.

If so, the body would still be healthy, and it had been confirmed that Yuria had succeeded to the position of temporary head of the household.

As long as the duke’s residence is occupied, he cannot enter the interior.

So what am I going to attack? Of course, wouldn’t it be the outskirts of the duke’s residence, the surroundings where Yuria’s power hadn’t fully spread yet?

“You did a good job on your own.”

“Yes. Since the center is so tight, there is nothing to aim for except the rest of the area, right?”

It is.

If we were aiming for it, we would choose to slowly consume power from the outskirts, but it is also true that we do not have that kind of room.

Reynolds did a pretty good job with the preliminary work to move as quickly as possible, so I was able to save as much time as possible.

I want to see a little more about how Yuria moves, but I think it’s time to move a little bit.

On the contrary, if you don’t move at all, YuRia’s side might move more boldly, so it’s better to be as wary of me as possible.

In any case, Arwen’s help was needed to do so.

It’s not like I’m being supervised for nothing.

Arwen is the one who can observe Yuria’s movements more secretly than anyone else.

After waiting for a while, I felt the magic around me move.

A woman appeared through the blurry wall of the building.

The face of the woman in the form of an attendant at the duke’s residence was distorted, and then the figure changed and a child-like girl stuck out her head.

“Here you are. Aren’t you coming to the general store today?”

“…Oh, did you have other helpers?”

“If you say alchemist Jay, you will recognize him. I was entrusted with monitoring Yuria.”

Surprised by the sudden appearance of Arwen, Reynolds nodded while carefully stroking his chin.

Since I entrusted you with the work, you must have judged it to be trustworthy.

They didn’t have to know each other in detail.

As long as I was the only one who knew the name Arwen, I called him Jay again and asked about his achievements.

“How about Yuria’s movements?”

“I haven’t taken any action yet. Sometimes I go to the office where the duke is staying, and it seems that the family is in it. There is no blood incense, and it must be an obedient attitude?”

If that’s the case, it didn’t seem like there was a big backlash against YuRia’s words, as expected from Renald.

I’m not the kind of person who would be left without any countermeasures in a situation like this, but I don’t know what he’s thinking.

Since he knew a lot about his father, he was certainly not someone who would give up the position of head of household easily.

At least in the bondage of the name Taylor, he was more upright than anyone else.

You can hide something. YuRia must be wary of that too, and I was thinking about that too.

“I think we should first meet the nobles who held hands with Yuria one by one. Is there a better number?”

“I don’t think you will listen to me saying that we will meet. Would you like to try?”

“You don’t have to meet and talk.”

Let’s laugh a little, Arwen’s eyes looking at me narrowed.

To correct it, I don’t think it’s necessary to have a conversation only with words.

What he learned from Taylor was intimidation and trickery, so there was no need to use it.

In this situation, Adele’s name was a pretty good vehicle.

-Use my name on your own. If you don’t listen, it’s okay even if I promise to stab you in moderation.

-…Aren’t you telling me to use it too much?

-If it helps you, that’s about it. It is up to you to use it. It doesn’t matter how you use it, just come to the north and tell me about it later.

I also got permission from myself. I don’t think there’s any reason not to use it.

It wasn’t that he had no experience of making threats, so what was left would be to face him face to face.

What would the aristocrats who confidently raised me look like when they heard Adele’s name?

With a small smile, I moved along with Leonald, who looked at me suspiciously.

Arwen, who looked at me suspiciously, followed.

It looks like I’m serious about what I’m going to do, but maybe we’ll find out soon.

I don’t know how I’ll react to him though.

The only thing he could hear in the empty room was his own breathing.

It was a breathing sound that was not like before, and the duke laughed a little at the breath that was a little muddy.

I never thought I’d hear that I was senile.

It was quite a strange feeling to hear that from my daughter.

In the first place, I was raised for the family rather than the child, but is this how my father felt?

The position of the head of household is quite empty.

It was fierce only when I went up, isn’t it a place where I can’t feel as much joy as I thought after I came up.

Stepping on the corpses and blood of his brothers, he climbed up.

Knowing that it is an eternally repeated tradition, it may have been an unconscious choice to give everything to one child.

How could he have known that his son, who seemed to have no interest in the head of the household, would covet the position of the head of the household?

I knew that YuRia’s actions stemmed from Robert’s conversion.

“…I’m old too.”

To be caught up in a trick like this? Maybe he was a little shaken by Robert’s words at the bar.

I never thought that a guy I didn’t even expect would come up here.

A year ago and now, Robert was a completely different person.

Have you sharpened a knife in your heart? for what

The Duke thought it was because of his mother. Serena Eugress.

The woman he married and the woman who gave birth to Yuria and Robert.

He was optimistic that YuRia would one day take everything because he was a child who looked exactly like a woman who didn’t fit in with his family.

In reality, it was going the exact opposite way. I just giggled and laughed at this ridiculous reality.

“You must have thought that if you made him a senile old man, he would be able to easily take over the position of head of household.”

Taylor’s family head was a coveted position for anyone who inherited blood.

Did you really think that you wouldn’t have thought of such a trick?

Ha, it was obvious that he looked at himself too funny.

I’ve been thinking about just giving it up.

However, since Yuria’s recent move was quite disappointing, what came to her mind was the image of Taylor, with Robert becoming the head of household.

To think he was going to destroy the Taylor he built with his own hands.

If you spit out such nonsense and asked for the position of head of household, did you really think you would give it?

However… there was nothing I couldn’t give.

If he showed the ability to become the head of the household, even if he had to destroy everything about Taylor, Robert was qualified to become the head of the household.

Does it really suit you?

We’ll have to keep an eye on him, but I found this angular stone that came out of nowhere quite interesting.

How far will the sword carried by a child who looks just like Serena go?

The Duke smiled when he saw the desk where the papers that were always piled up were neatly gone.

“You may be right.”

Reminds me of the words of a woman who was an idealist. It was a marriage of convenience, but it reminds me of a woman who gave me her heart for a while.

And when I thought of my son who looked exactly like that woman, I smiled bitterly and closed my eyes.

“More than I thought, I resemble you.”

The Duke, Arthur Taylor, gave a small laugh.

She already knew how Yuria treated Robert after Serena’s death.

Even so, the reason I just watched was to see how Robert, who resembles Serena, would overcome.

Will it collapse without being able to hold on in the end, or will it struggle to gain everyone’s trust?

if not.

Will Serena do the unimaginable?

I don’t know if this was a coincidence, but in the end it was Robert who was behaving like his mother.

So I thought I’d watch it a little longer.

Until one day, Robert came back to this place and asked me to give up the position of head of the household.

With a little bit of fun.
