I Became the Young Villain’s Sister-In-Law - Chapter 27

I covered my mouth with a napkin and asked in surprise.

 

“Cough, yes? Cough, Marinenest, cough, k-kidnapping?!”

 

As I started talking and choked, Cedric handed me a glass of water.

 

“Yes. Kidnapping. By the way, do you know Lady Marinenest? Why are you shaking so badly…”

 

Ah, I lied about losing my memory.

 

I was so surprised that I forgot.

 

Phew, I should be nervous.

 

I waved no while drinking water.

 

“No, it’s… I’m surprised. It’s kidnapping.”

 

At my words, Cedric quietly nodded his head.

 

“But why?”

 

Calib looked at Edwin with a puzzled look. As if he was asking the reason Cedric had to confirm that Daphne, Princess of Marinenest was kidnapped.

 

Edwin said. “It’s said that all major families have received official requests for cooperation. But we got nothing.”

 

“Isn’t that because Indigentia’s ‘Family Magic’ isn’t suitable for search and investigation?”

 

There is something called ‘Family Magic’ in this world.

 

Family Magic literally refers to a unique magic that can only be used by members of the family. The Family Magic type had the characteristic of being passed down through generations by being taught only by the headmasters to their heirs.

 

Gravity Magic used by Cedric and Calib is their Family Magic.

 

And the female lead’s family, Marinenest, uses Water Magic as their Family Magic.

 

However, after Daphne’s return, she inherited the ‘Mirror Shield Magic’ of the Imperial Family, instead of Water Magic.

 

I said. “Gravity Magic is a magic that uses the combined force of gravitational force and centrifugal force.”

 

For example, by removing the gravity of a designated person, you can make them weightless as if they were floating in space. Conversely, gravity can be strengthened to apply pressure to the entire body, like when an airplane is floating.

 

Great magicians are said to be able to slow time by applying this Gravity Magic.

 

It was said in the original story that it was convenient to see it as a higher version of telekinesis.

 

“So, even if you are proficient in attack and defense, it’s not the same case with search and investigation, right? Compared to the magic of other families.”

 

Well, I heard that there are families that can transform into dogs, and there are families that work as psychometric detectives.

 

As I know, the characteristics of Family Magic were well known to ordinary people.

 

It’s like a family symbol.

 

So, after Jeryl was fired, the new etiquette teacher was also the first to teach the Family Magic.

 

Edwin replied to me.

 

“Yes, that’s right. However, it is said that even families who aren’t very good at magic have received requests for cooperation.”

 

“Mashalats?”

 

Edwin nodded at Calib’s question.

 

“Uh…”

 

I rattled for a while.

 

The Mashalats of Strength, the Marinenest of Water, and the Indigentia of Gravity.

 

In the original story, these three families were said to represent the Imperial Family.

 

And only these three families were allowed to enter the Sanctuary of knowledge, the exclusive property of the Imperial Family.

 

All the knowledge of the world is stored in the Sanctuary of Knowledge.

 

It is said that if one wants to, they can also obtain the secret of each family.

 

Therefore, the three families were holding each other in check while pretending to be neutral because of the ‘Sanctuary of Knowledge’.

 

“Marinenest ignored Indigentia and sent a request for cooperation only to Mashalats…”

 

Calib, who had at most looked like a child, muttered coolly.

 

“The two of them aren’t trying to hold hands, are they?” He asked, turning to Cedric.

 

“I don’t know.” Cedric replied, staring at the table with calm hydrangea eyes.

 

The magic of the Indigentia family belongs to the very powerful ancient magic.

 

Besides, Cedric, who uses that magic, is the strongest person whom even the Imperial Family can’t easily touch.

 

But if the two families are determined to attack… It can be quite a headache.

 

“What are you going to do, Brother?”

 

“I should confirm it first, just in case.”

 

“Confirm?”

 

“Yes. You know what Ellia told you before. There is nothing parents can’t do for their children. Even if it means bowing their head to a family which they have a bad relationship with, parents will do it.”

 

At his words, Calib quietly nodded his head.

 

“But the relationship between Marinenest and Indigentia isn’t that bad. Even if I was cursed while the Princess was protecting the prince.”

 

It was an unfortunate accident that occurred while protecting the Prince, so he couldn’t claim compensation for damages.

 

Perhaps Calib also remembered this, and as if in a bad mood, he clenched his eyebrows in displeasure.

 

Whatever the circumstance was, it would have been unpleasant for Calib, who loved Cedric so much.

 

“And yet they didn’t reach out to Indigentia… Even though Indigentia is superior in terms of ability.”

 

The corners of Cedric’s lips leaned sharply.

 

Although it was called the Mashalats of Strength, this didn’t refer to magic.

 

It was just a name given to them because they have such great physical abilities.

 

In short, it wasn’t capable of being compared to Gravity Magic.

 

Moreover, they were also the weakest among the three major families.

 

Calib said.

 

“Well… Do you think the Duke of Marinenest is hiding something from us?”

 

“Yes. Even the Duke of Marinenest knows it’s better to borrow our hand.”

 

Considering the joining of the two families, he had to ask Indigentia for cooperation first.

 

Even if magic doesn’t help, they can provide a search force.

 

“It’s definitely questionable that they didn’t ask.”

 

“I heard that the Duke of Marinenest loves the Princess very much.”

 

“Yes. Now that she has learned the Mirror Shield Magic, he has no choice but to save her.”

 

Cedric responded scornfully to Calib’s words.

 

It was only natural that Calvados, Duke of Marinenest, loved Daphne.

 

Because this world is the childcare of a romance-fantasy world.

 

Then Daphne was kidnapped, isn’t it time to cover the cold and hot water? (t/n: this means one’s not in a position to make a choice. they have to do whatever it takes.)

 

The Duke might want to borrow a cat’s hand, but why…

 

Hmmm, a question floated in my mind.

 

Even in a situation where a child is kidnapped, it’s not easy to reach out…

 

I looked at him for a moment and said.

 

“Then it would be better if we volunteered to help.”

 

“Um, yes. That will make it easier to see how things are going.”

 

At Cedric’s words, I swallowed a sigh of relief.

 

If he wouldn’t do it, I had to convince him.

 

Because the fact that the female lead was kidnapped is similar to the original story!

 

After Daphne repelled the curse, the bad fairy kidnapped her.

 

[You dare to block my curse, I can’t forgive you!]

 

And in the process, the evil fairy, the being who would release the curse, died, and Calib turned into a villain.

 

The flow of the original story and now are very similar.

 

But I can assure you, I’m not the one who kidnapped Daphne.

 

I felt my fingertips getting cold.

 

No way… Maybe I’m not Ellia?

 

Do I just have the same name or look similar, but I’m not the ‘bad fairy’?

 

Then… I can’t even break Cedric’s curse, can I?

 

No, it’s not.

 

Cedric’s action bothered me to say that

 

Being able to smell me although he lost his sense of smell, and being able to taste my food, even though he lost my sense of taste.

 

Also, as far as I know, Ellia is the only character in [IWPYTSTT] with silver hair and pink jewel eyes.

 

That’s why I immediately thought I’m the bad fairy.

 

Yeah. Don’t be hasty, there’s no need to worry anymore.

 

First, let’s check if the person who kidnapped Daphne is really the bad fairy.

 

If the kidnapper isn’t the bad fairy, this time it’ll be clear that I’m the bad fairy, Ellia.

 

Cedric said. “I think we should head to the capital for now.”

 

“Yeah, that’s right.”

 

Calib nodded his head and asked for his coat to be brought.

 

I also got ready to follow the brothers as they prepared to head to the capital.

 

Actually, in my opinion, there was no need for me to follow.

 

However, it was also dangerous for me to be alone in the castle without those two.

 

For the voluntary prohibition of Marquis Babillon has ended.

 

Furthermore, at the time of the contract, there was a clause that I would always go with one of the two.

 

The sudden trip to the capital was prepared immediately.

 

He said we would go straight to the capital using the teleport portal instead of a carriage.

 

There were also townhouses in the capital, so there was no need to worry about staying for a few days.

 

I quietly remembered the original story.

 

Come to think of it, something strange happened.

 

In the original, the bad fairy obviously cursed Renoir when he was 16 years old.

 

But why was he cursed at the age of 6 after Daphne returned?

 

Why was the curse placed ten years earlier?

 

I’ve read the whole story, but I can’t remember.

 

Perhaps this setting itself wasn’t solved in the original story.

 

But for some reason, I thought I should dig into this error.

 

Despite the fact that Daphne’s kidnapping case is urgent right now.

 

Shortly thereafter, the surroundings were dyed pure white and the Teleport Magic to the capital began.
