Raised the Villainous Daughter and Ran Away

20. Information Award

“But there is a problem.”

“A problem?”

“It is not easy to meet the information dealer.”

I thought we met well last time?

“What is the problem?”

“It’s hard to see the face of that information award.”

What was that reason? That much is no problem. The intelligence award of the Duchy of Descartes. There is another way to meet him.

“No problem. Head straight to the information desk.”

“Actually, there is one more problem.”

France bit her lips. What else is this time?

“… What is it this time?”

“You need to be allowed to leave this ducal residence.”

… Should that be allowed? Isn’t it okay to just go out for a drink? While I was putting on a puzzled expression, Frances continued.

“When I went to the auction house to buy you or when I went to the information store, I sneaked out.”

“Sneaking away? Is that possible? At this ducal residence?”

“Yes. You know, nobody in this dukedom cares about me, right? If you sneak out and use the dog hole, you can easily get out.”

… Did the duke’s princess use the dog hole to escape the mansion? Something is out of shape.

‘So when I came to the underworld, did I come alone without an escort?’

She is a very funny princess. Is it mindless or naive? You seem to know everything.

I said.

“Then sneak away.”

Frances didn’t answer, just pursed his lips. What else is this time?

“Didn’t my exclusive attendant change? The child will not be indifferent to me. If we solve this problem, we can sneak out…….”

France is speechless. That’s it, it’s that simple.

“I’ll take that attendant out too.”

“… What?”

“Let’s make them the same accomplices.”

In a completely unexpected way. France’s eyebrows went up.

“Would that be easily possible?”

“Of course.”

“How are you going to do it?”

“Let’s call that servant for now.”

Frances nodded and rang the bell on the small table.

My daughter-

As soon as the bell rings, the door opens. Was it waiting in front of the door like an exclusive attendant? Could it be that you didn’t hear what we were talking about?

“Did you call, princess?”

Fortunately, I don’t think I heard. Frances put down the teacup she was drinking from.

“I have something for you to do.”

“Tell me.”

“… ….”

France stared at me without speaking directly to the attendant. It seems like this princess is entrusting everything to me.

‘I don’t know what will happen if I disappear later.’

I got up from my seat with a smile on my face.

“The Princess says she has business outside.”

“You want to go outside? Then, I will tell the Duke of So what she has to say…….”

In an instant, she moved behind her, raised her knuckles, and struck her at the nape of the neck. Took! The attendant collapses helplessly like a puppet whose thread has been cut. She fell over and held her in her arms.

‘I’ve only seen it in historical dramas, but it’s good.’

Isn’t that going to cause problems later? I’m a little worried.

Frances opened her eyes wide and opened her mouth.

“You… you… What have you done… ?”

“I fainted.”

“Why… ?”

“I have to take him out.”

“… ….”

France is just speechless. I spoke.

“Princess. Did you really intend to persuade me with ordinary words and take me away?”

“So it should be, or how do you take it?”

“That could lead to scuffles. This exclusive attendant is the one given by Prince Eden.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Even the princess’s exclusive attendant, in the end, is someone who follows Prince Eden.”

France opened her mouth quietly. Has his brain shut down?

If I had just said it, the attendant would have refused unconditionally. And I’ll tell Eden Descartes. The gongnyeo tried to sneak out.

If it had reached Eden Descartes’ ears, she would have been raucous again.

Then you sneaked out the other day and spent up to 500 million won on a slave, but you’re trying to sneak out again? It’s obvious even if you don’t say it

France said in a trembling voice.

“Still, didn’t the fainting go too far… ? How are you going to get out?”

“That’s no problem. I will take you out.”

“How?”

“I will hide my presence and jump over the bars.”

“… It can be.”

France quietly blinked her eyes.

“Then let’s go right away. Informationally.”

“Yes… ….”

* * *

We sneaked out of the mansion and checked our eyes. After making sure no one was there, Frances stepped into a hidden dog hole in her bush. I lifted her personal attendant and jumped high and jumped over her bars.

Puff! She landed lightly and looked around her head. She’s been through dog holes, but she’s coming from nowhere.

“Here it is.”

Looking behind her, Frances was dusting her dress. Fortunately, she didn’t stain too much.

“Let’s go, information.”

We walked around the Duchy. It was broad daylight, so there were countless people.

In the empire, dark houses exist everywhere. Because nobles often use it. Therefore, it is difficult to find a land without darkness.

That doesn’t mean security is bad. It’s because he clearly knows what he shouldn’t touch, like an underworld that runs against nobles.

‘Though the lower class bandits are different.’

Most of the thieves are the ones who fell out of the adventurer’s guild because they couldn’t find work. No matter how clean the streets are, just as there is trash hanging in hidden places, so are the thieves.

At that time. The servant I was carrying came to his senses.

“Huh, huh! What, how did this happen?!”

“Shh. You have been kidnapped.”

“… Yes?!”

I explained to her. Why did this happen and what to do in the future?

“… Still, I have to tell Prince Eden…….”

“Then I can’t help it. You are missing from now on.”

“No! I won’t tell you!”

“Can I swear?”

“Yes, of course!”

“If this goes to the ears of Prince Eden, you will be missing from that day on.”

“I will never tell you!”

A shrunken servant, like a docile sheep standing in front of a predator. I asked her

“What is your name?”

“This is Helena… ….”

“Yes, Helena. You should behave well in the future.”

“The behavior… ?”

“Follow the princess’s orders as the number one priority. Otherwise, you may go missing.”

“Oops! Yes, yes!”

Intimidation through fear. It is a simple, clear, and effective method in the short term. The downside is that the effect doesn’t last long.

‘Still, I can’t tell Eden.’

If Helena reports what happened to Eden, France will be scolded for a moment and then it’s over, but that won’t be the end for this attendant. She should know better what a good choice is.

Frances, who had been quietly watching from her side, opened her mouth.

“… Did you threaten her with a lifeline?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t like that very much.”

“It is an inevitable choice.”

“So… ….”

Francesca reluctantly nodded her head. And we walked again.

How long did it take? Frances stopped in front of a bar.

“We have arrived.”

As expected. It’s like a place I know. The guy is here. He’s quite capable, so you should recruit him as an ally.

“Let’s go in.”

France put on the mask she had brought with her. It was the cheap rabbit mask they showed me when they came to buy it.

With my daughter. A bell rings as the door opens. Instantly, the eyes of the people in the bar are drawn to this direction. He realized that Frances was an aristocrat.

‘What are you watching?’

I was afraid that something annoying would happen, so I let go of my life. Then, the whole body of the people who were looking at us stiffened and shrank. The chicken must have sprouted.

France whispered. Fortunately, he didn’t seem to feel my life.

“There is an information vendor here. But it won’t be easy to meet. Even when I came alone, they didn’t meet me easily.”

That bastard was just in a bad mood. If I’m in a good mood, I’ll have customers, and if I’m not in a good mood, I won’t and I’m drinking.

“Leave it to me.”

“How are you going to do it? You don’t intend to destroy them all, do you?”

“What do you see me as… ….”

“Think of the actions and words you have shown so far.”

That’s right too.

“Anyway. It’s not like that, so don’t worry.”

“Yes… You must have a plan.”

I headed to the bar’s reception desk alone.

“I want to browse the menu.”

“What menu would you like?”

“To the special course C.”

He hesitated. Suddenly, the receptionist was serious.

“We are not accepting guests today.”

“Did the master do that?”

“Yes.”

You must be in a bad mood today. But there is a way. I said.

“Then tell the master. He said he came to see Seldas of Count Freia.”

“… !”

The receptionist was startled and his shoulders twitched.

“What kind of relationship do you have with the master… ?”

“What are you going to do with that? Tell me what I have to say.”

“Oh, I see…” !”

The receptionist hurries to the back room. I waited patiently

“What did you say?”

“Yes. We will see you soon.”

“Looks like you are accepting requests today.”

“Yes, what. I guess so.”

France is standing there, like a squirrel waking up early from hibernation. Her emerald eyes shine through the cheap rabbit mask.

‘Those eyes always look pretty.’

France tilted her head.

“Is the mask strange?”

“No.”

“Then why are you staring at me like that?”

“Just like that. I want the princess’s eyes to be beautiful whenever I see them.”

“… Are you flirting with me now?”

“It can’t be. How could a slave have such a disrespectful heart?”

“… Okay.”

What is it? You look a little sad.

At that time. The door behind the reception desk burst open.

“Master wants to meet you right away.”

You took the bait. I nodded.

“Let’s go in.”

“Yes.”

So we went into the back room of the receptionist. A myriad of books stacked all over the bookshelf. A huge map spread out on the wall. One oversized desk and one long sofa.

A man was sitting at the desk wearing a mask. His name is Seldas Freya.

He is one of the sub-males in this game.

As Frances sat down on the sofa, Seldas immediately opened his mouth.

“I ask straight forward. How do you know who I am?”

I quietly whispered to Frances what to say. She nodded and opened her mouth.

“If you are an information dealer who likes money, you should behave accordingly. Are you trying to buy information for free?”

“… ….”

Through the holes in the mask, he could see his eyes shallowly open. At least that’s proof that it caught his interest.

“What an interesting guest. So, why did you go this far to meet me? Please tell me the contents of the request. I will receive the fee the way I found out my identity.”

I whispered to Frances again. It was the contents of the order.

“Looking for a person.”

“People? Who?”

“Do you know the name Khazar Uplane?”

“That’s the first name I’ve heard of.”

Seldar shook his head. There must be an arrogant expression behind that mask.

“Anyway. I want to find him.”

“Okay. Do not accept orders. You will have to pay the price properly.”

Francesca nodded her head. Yeah, it’s good that she didn’t answer verbally. That makes it look a bit mysterious.

“… But now that I see it, it’s the rabbit mask I saw last time. Looking at the man behind you, you must have used the information I gave you well.”

“I refrain from talking about private things.”

Yes! You’re doing great!

“You are a wary guest. I haven’t seen it that way.”

Seldas rubs the desk with two fingers. It’s a habit that comes out when you can’t hold back your curiosity. I whispered to Francee the contents of the next request.

“I have another request.”

“What is this time?”

Frances looked over at Seldas, raising his head.

“I want to start a business.”
