Ivani is completely horrible.
"Wife, please ask Ivani to come up for a moment. I want to ask her something."
Junice nodded, opened the door and went downstairs.
Then, without waiting for Reiner to ask, Lelith spoke: "Duke Freke, male, 57 years old, has three sons and one daughter. He also has a mistress from the border city of Vosrich, with whom he has two illegitimate children.
Their family had three territories, the most prosperous of which was Slankti, located near the royal capital of Delrogi.
There are fourteen villages and forty-six manors in the three territories, and the tax revenue can support an army of 3,500 people for a long time.
It is worth noting that their family also keeps several powerful magicians in captivity. I was discovered by those magicians when I was conducting aerial reconnaissance.
He picked on the wrong person. To us, this little bit of strength is not worth mentioning at all.
I have a way to make him live in fear all day long."
???
Reiner asked doubtfully, "No... When did you receive information from Xi? She's already stripped down to her underwear."
Lelith replied seriously, "My previous master was worried that my identity would cause trouble for Earl Harold. Since then, I have begun investigating Earl Harold's network of connections, focusing on understanding some of his enemies within the kingdom."
Reiner reached out and grasped her demon horns before kissing her cheek.
A blush appeared on Laelissa's face, and she twisted her tail as if she was shy.
"Well done."
Lailisi knelt on one knee, her tone somewhat hurried: "It is my honor to serve the master!"
Reiner held her in his arms and kissed her.
This made her face redder.
Martina, who had finished servicing the greatsword, stood aside and watched, then cursed, "Boiling Succubus."
"By the way, how is Duke Freke's son Dorien?"
Lailisi took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then slowly said, "He's a dandy boy with no brains, no strength, and no vision. He can't even farm properly. He's a worthless piece of trash."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Junice came in with Ivanny.
The poor little girl looked at Reiner timidly and asked cautiously, "What's wrong, Lord Reiner?"
"I'm asking you something."
Junice gently touched her head and said softly, "Relax, maybe Reiner can help you."
Reiner nodded, and after a moment's thought, he said, "Are you really planning to work with us in the future?"
After a moment's hesitation, Ivana replied, "I don't know..."
Junice's tone became stern: "There's nothing to hesitate about. I know what you're thinking. The relationship between the two families cannot be solved by a simple marriage.
To be frank, Father also understands that he is just treating us as sacrifices for the family, hoping that this will give the family a break. This is only a temporary solution, not a cure..."
Junice looked at Reiner pleadingly.
Reiner nodded and said, "Junis, take everyone out to play for a while and come back. I want to talk to your father about life."
Having said this, he patted Laelisse's waist and whispered, "Call Earl Harold and tell him I have something to discuss with him."
