The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me

Chapter 260: Family

Family

Aria, just relax and look around. Frey isnt anywhere nearby, right?

Never mind, let it go.

Aria confidently entered the inn with an angry expression.

Excuse me.

Y-yes, of course

The innkeeper had a small and delicate stature. Facing Aria, she couldnt help but sweat and bow.

How can we serve you?

Aria, adorned in shining armor with a dignified gaze, embodied the image of a noble lady from a prestigious family.

.

Furthermore, the attendants and soldiers standing behind her with eyes wide open added an inevitable tension to the situation.

Please cooperate for a moment.

Aria looked at the bowing innkeeper and spoke sharply while taking something out of her pocket.

Oh, whats this?

Im sorry for the interruption.

She handed over a pouch of gold coins.

T-Thank

Use this gold for compensation if the guests complain. Ill provide more than enough, so dont worry.

Interrupting the innkeepers attempt to express gratitude, Aria calmly instructed and then turned away coldly.

Search thoroughly. Leave no stone unturned. Make sure not a single rat escapes.

Got it!

Upon that command, the stern-faced soldiers fanned out in all directions.

Hmm

Observing the soldiers with a serious expression, Aria quietly strolled away.

.!!

She walked straight toward Frey and his companions.

Master, whats our move?

Hush, stay calm. Im still in Serenas disguise, remember?

Oh!

Lulu, initially frightened, relaxed.

Umm..

Eek!

However, when Aria approached them and looked at Lulu suspiciously, beads of sweat formed on her forehead, and she averted her gaze.

Im sure she was seated on that persons lap

Lulu swiftly dropped to the floor when Aria entered, but Aria had caught that fleeting moment.

Am I just imagining things?

Like most people, Aria dismissed it as a mistake and walked past.

Phew.

Sighing in relief, Lulu turned to Serena for advice.

Uhh, uhm

Serena was dozing off for some reason, appearing quite drowsy.

Thump!

W-Why are you behaving like this?

Serena wobbled for a moment before slumping onto the table and closing her eyes, and Lulu asked in a panicked voice.

The sunrise

What?

The sun rose earlier than I expected.

Beside Lulu, Frey stared at the sun peeping through the window.

Once Serena wakes up, lets leave immediately.

Sure, got it!

Frey then finished his beer.

Hmm, hmmmm.

?

Someone approached Frey, clearing their throat.

Ill just do a quick check.

Isolet, observing the disguised Frey, awkwardly murmured.

.

.

.

.

.

Excuse me, I need to conduct a quick check

One of the soldiers, who had thoroughly searched the area, slowly approached Frey.

These people are under my investigation.

Oh, I see. My apologies!

Seated at an empty table with a beer, Isolet said, making the soldiers salute and swiftly move away. 

After discreetly surveying the surroundings, Isolet whispered to Frey.

Just give it a moment.

Ill protect you until the inspection concludes.

Frey crossed his arms and asked quietly.

How did you recognize me?

Ive pledged allegiance to you. Our connection is strong.

Is that so? Im not well-versed in knightly oaths.

Frey replied bluntly, and Isolet spoke softly.

Youre my lord, Frey. Im your knight.

And?

Im bound to you. Thats why I can always sense your presence. So

She took Freys hand, whispering.

Ill always come running, no matter where you are.

Freys gaze slightly wavered at her words.

Nice to see you understand your place.

Eek!?

Abruptly, Frey put his leg over Isolets leg with a devilish smile, causing her to groan in surprise.

F-Frey, this isnt the time for

Speak formally.

This isnt the right time, my Lord.

Hmph, is that so?

Freys Villainization, which had been dormant after his one-night outburst, surfaced again.

But didnt I explicitly tell you not to follow me?

T-That There was a reason

It seems I need to punish you for disobeying me, right?

Frey found Isolets unwavering love cute in his slightly intoxicated state, setting off this chain of events.

Rustle

Ugh.

Freys leg on Isolets lap subtly moved inward.

Stay still sister.

Lord Frey, this isnt appropriate right now

Why? Isnt it more thrilling to be punished in such a situation?

Ah.

As Freys foot touched her lower abdomen, Isolet blushed and lowered her head.

Swish, swish

Why resist Sister? Are you enjoying this?

No, I

While Frey playfully observed Isolet, he got caught up in the desire to tease her, slowly rubbing his foot on her abdomen.

S-Stop it

What? What did you say?

N-Nothing

Trying to stop Frey, Isolet had no choice but to stay silent, suppressing her groans to avoid attention as he raised his voice.

Y-Your clothes

What about them?

..

She sat still, shivering for a moment, and then realization struck she had been wearing the same shirt for a week, the one Frey had made her wear forcefully.

L-Lets stop this now, for real!

Dizziness washed over her, and she clenched her fists, sending a warning to Frey, who grinned while teasing her.

A pervert getting aroused by his disciple, someone shes known since childhood.

..!

Pathetic and useless teacher.

As Frey, covering his mouth and giggling, abruptly pressed his foot against her abdomen, she bowed and fell silent.

M-Master

You too, Lulu. Ill punish you twice as hard later, so be ready

Lulu, who was looking at Frey with anticipation, started to become restless, worrying if Isolet would also be consumed by him.

P-Please, clear your mind!

Finally, after much turmoil, Lulu prioritized her masters well-being over her desires. With her shining Magic Eyes she commanded Frey as he reached for her neck.

Ah.

Frey, who had been wiggling his toes on Isolets twitching abdomen, suddenly came to his senses.

L-Lulu?

Uh

Frey staggered momentarily as his head cleared up, yet again today. He looked worriedly at Lulu, who was covering her eyes.

..?

Feeling something soft yet firm under his foot, he tilted his head in confusion.

Oh no.

Frey glanced under the table and realized his foot was still touching Isolets now-limp abdomen. He broke out in a cold sweat.

T-Thats enough punishment, Sister.

Frey removed his foot from Isolets soft abdomen, then discreetly glanced around and said.

L-Looks like the search is winding down, right?

After looking around earnestly, the soldiers and the servants were indeed winding down and gathering on the inns first floor. 

Have you thoroughly searched? There might have been crucial information.

Were certain there was nothing!

We couldnt find a trace.

Aria stood in the front, questioning the soldiers and servants, who provided their updates.

Hmm

Aria looked troubled, stroking her chin, then shook her head.

Retreat. My bro Frey has already left this place.

W-Well then

However, his traces are definitely here.

The expressions of the forces turned serious.

I can faintly sense steller mana. Its weak, but its lingering presence indicates he hasnt been gone long.

In that case!

Theres a high chance hes within a two-kilometer radius. Spread out and start searching the surrounding area.

As Aria turned to leave, the forces exited the inn.

Ill manage the aftermath and catch up, so make sure to cover as wide a radius as you can.

With those words, Aria approached the innkeeper, who observed her closely, and she handed over another pouch of gold coins.

I-It went according to plan, Sister?

Frey observed the situation silently and soon spoke to Isolet.

Once Aria departs, we can stay here a bit longer and then quietly slip away, right?

Sister?

When Isolet showed no response, a perplexed Frey whispered.

Are you okay?

Frey.

Isolet, who had been barely restraining her urges, lifted her head.

Lets talk later

Her voice trembled as she struggled to stand up, gripping her wobbly legs.

!

Turning around, she found Aria standing beside her with a surprised expression.

Brother.

..

Yet, Aria didnt even glance at Isolet, her gaze fixed coldly on Frey.

How did you

You thought I wouldnt recognize my own brother?

Aria mercilessly interrupted Frey, her voice chilling as she moved forward.

I knew it was you the moment I walked in.

Then why did those people

Forget it, just follow me.

Aria headed toward Freys room.

We need to talk.

She added coldly, looking at Frey beside her.

Perhaps a conversation that might be our last.

Leaving those words, Aria quietly walked into the room.

And for a while, silence lingered in the inn.

.

.

.

.

.

F-Frey, are you sure youll be okay?

Its fine.

I-If you want to, I can join

I said its fine.

About to follow Aria, Frey firmly pushed Isolet away as she tried to come after him.

B-But

This is a family matter.

Isolet, still wanting to be with Frey, fell silent at his words.

Family..

Her lifes wish, set aside when she became his knight, stirred again.

I also want to be treated as family by Frey

Freys retreating figure looked lonely and desolate.

Hmm.

Frey swallowed nervously, his face reflecting an indescribable fear.

Just wait a moment, Frey.

Overcoming her desires, Isolet, filled with protective and maternal instincts, grabbed his arm.

Take this.

Whats this?

M-My gift to you.

Isolet then took out the long-awaited ring of oath.

For a knight, the oath ring carries great significance. Losing it could lead one to consider taking their own life

.

Regardless this ring will protect you. So, dont be too nervous

Thanks, Sister.

Isolet blushed and rambled, her hopes coming true at this moment, but she fell silent as Frey expressed his gratitude.

Be strong, Frey.

She gazed at him momentarily, gently patting his back, and spoke softly.

Wherever you are, this ring will signify that someone is there to help you.

As she finished, Frey relaxed and lightly touched her abdomen, then he remarked.

Not bad for a lousy sister.

In that warm atmosphere, they approached the door.

But, Frey which finger should the ring go on

Isolet, feigning indifference, sneakily glanced at Freys fingers.

!!!

She was shocked.

Whats wrong? Sister?

She had hoped Frey would put the ring on his left ring finger, but it already had a ring. 

Isolet had seen this ring of purity glowing white before. The issue now was that it was

Sister?

Freys ring of purity had turned black.

Aaah..

Well, I should go then?

Isolets emotions spiraled out of control, and as Frey turned to leave the room, she reached out blankly.

Click

But the door was cold-heartedly slammed shut.

Isolets eyes, staring blankly at the closed door, slowly lost their spark.
