The Reincarnated Sage ~I Will Forge the Strongest Empire in the Demon Forest!~

After leaving Belesdral, Riza went south and returned to Count Astreus' territory .

Riza had expected that they would take a lot of time to search for them, and since they would have to report that they hadn't found them, they would be quite furious.

She expected that she might be banned, or even executed in the worst case.

Either way, he was sure that he would be punished for sure, so he went to his master's house.

When I got to the mansion, I was surprised by the butler.

The last time I visited the mansion was about six months ago, when I went to report back to him.

When I reported that there was nothing happening now, he was furious and said, "Don't come back until you find out! And then he yelled at me.

I never saw him again.

The butler.

Did you find it?

I ask Riza.

"No,

Riza replied, shaking her head .

'I see. ......'

The butler's man looks gloomy.

Just like that, the butler says nothing, and leads Riza into the master's room.

"Master Renest, Master Riza has returned.

After a while, you'll find yourself inside.

"Enter.

A low man's voice could be heard .

Then the butler opened the door to the room and Riza walked in.

'Sorry I'm late, but I'm back.

He bowed his head deeply and said.

"Riza, you're alive. Did you find the baby?

The head of the Countess of Astraeus, Remest Astraeus, asked Riza.

'...... No, I couldn't find it.

It pained me a lot to lie to you, but I kept my word and didn't tell you about the vellum.

He was loyal, but Riza couldn't do anything to ingratiate herself with him .

As I closed my eyes tightly, preparing myself for the shouts of anger that were about to fly, I

Okay.

He said this in a tone of voice, as if he didn't think anything of it.

'Oh, you're not going to scold me?

There's no point in scolding someone for something they can't do.

Lemest replies without any particular change in expression.

Riza is a little confused, wondering if she had any change of heart after not seeing him for so long.

"I could have done better with you finding out, but no problem. On the contrary, I just thought you came back at the right time.

What do you mean by that?

I didn't know what good timing meant, so I asked.

"You've been looking for it a long time,

Yeah, just over a year.

"It had been so long, during which time I searched for it in other ways. I have information on the location of the child in the Fuller's Great Forest and a high degree of certainty that he is the one who was abandoned at that time.

What?

Since he won't be coming back easily, I will hire mercenaries to attack and take the village where the child is said to be living. And with you here, we'll be able to do that, which will greatly increase our strength. I'm counting on you.

Na......

Riza was speechless when she heard something she couldn't believe her ears.
