The Villainess Is Quite Interesting

The Demon is Quite Interesting

"Let's play a game of chess."

What...?

He briefly smiles as if he knows my confusion.

"Please, may I have a game of chess with you?"

Nox Narro... how did he notice my confusion through my always calm face?

"""Ah..."""

Seems they finally got out of their confusion from Nox Narro's sudden entrance.

"Demon! Why are you being so unreasonable to barge in our conversation!?"

Leora Bell, daughter of a marquess... She's been trying to make a connection with me desperately recently.

It could be told by her father as I read a report saying they are slowly felling to ruin...

She must be trying to curry my favor by fending off from the Nox Narro as he doesn't fit this group.

Pity that she became a doll for the family, a doll that will keep using till it runs out of value...

Just like me...

"Leora Bell... As a marquess child like myself, I am quite disappointed by your behavior."

"Wah...!"

Oh? Did he notice her flawed conversation skills?

"You disrespected me already by not saying my name... despite we have the same equal statuses?"

"!"

She now notices her mistake, but it is already too late.

"Won't this look in a way that you are not afraid of mocking the authority of the Narro family?"

Nox Narro... he has a sly tongue...

Indeed... the Narro family is quite stubborn in their authority.

They respect the above, but those who are equal and below them...

They are far arrogant than most of the noble families.

If there was someone who makes light of the Narro family authority, no doubt that person's family will be ruined the next day.

Hence why there was almost no one openly mock the Narro family despite they have a demon in their offspring.

A falling to ruin marquess family vs a strong marquess family.

The outcome itself is already decided.

"And also..."

"..."

Leora's face is already scared by this sly demon.

"Didn't you just bad gossip me earlier about myself as a very unreasonable person? Why are you so surprised by this fact?"

"...!"

So he did find another flaw in her set of words earlier...

If she said, "as expected, you are a very unreasonable person to just barge of our conversation!" than, "Why are you being so unreasonable to barge in our conversation!?"

There is a difference between the two sentences.

This exposes that Leora will gossip the wrong set of information making others will have a hard time trusting her.

Leora's face is already near crying, but she is holding herself well because of her training as a daughter of nobility.

Should I interfere or not?
