I’m the Sub Male Lead in Romance Fantasy, but I Don’t Like the Female Lead

91 – Father-in-law, please give me your daughter – 9

The drawing room of Countess Gracia is usually a place to welcome guests like a drawing room, but during the time we are staying in the castle, the four of us It was used as a place to drink tea and have light conversations. Hestia’s startled voice resounded in the drawing room.

“Yes? Failed?”

“Sorry….”

In front of Hestia, who was stunned, I didn’t say anything and lowered my head. Hestia twisted his hair with her fingers, immersed in thought. She asked me about her

“Didn’t she say that there is definitely a way to succeed unconditionally?”

“No, I don’t think I ever said unconditionally…. Yes. Sorry.”

He said he was confident, but he never said he was unconditional. My timid defiance was shattered by her sharp gaze. To be honest, how can I convince a person who has no intention of changing his mind no matter what I do in the first place? She never said that she would succeed unconditionally according to her words, and even when she said that she was confident, it seemed that Hestia was too anxious, so she said it as a consolation, and she was not really confident.

Cordelia, who was munching on snacks next to me, intervened, as if she knew what I was thinking. She suddenly started talking about her old days.

“Your uncle has always been like that.”

“That way?”

“Before. Are you talking about when I was young? 10 Years old? He must have been about the same age as Louis now.”

“What is this all of a sudden? An old story?”

Suddenly, it’s time for Cordelia’s storytelling. Confused and not paying attention to the other three, she continued her old story with a nostalgic look in her eyes.

“At that time, I was a really unstoppable tomboy.”

“Still enough.”

“Can you shut up for a minute?”

You talk like it’s not happening right now. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the person who best fits the dictionary definition of a tomboy. At my criticism, Cordelia’s face crumpled for an instant, and then came back. After she shut my mouth in a very polite tone, she started talking again.

“Anyway! When I was young, playing in this castle, I once broke a vase that the uncle cherished so much.”

“A vase?”

“You know why, they said they brought it from the east and they treated it very well.”

“Oh, that’s right. Something like that happened.”

After Hestia listened to Cordelia’s words, she belatedly agreed with her to see if she remembered. The two said it was like that back then, and poured out old stories that only they knew.

“At that time, I thought something really big was about to happen.”

“I did. Oh, did you know that my mother noticed everything at that time?”

“What? Nonsense!”

“They kept waiting for us to come to apologize honestly.”

“Wow really?”

The story of the two showed no signs of ending, and in the end I couldn’t stand it and said a word.

“So what is it about breaking the vase? Can’t we tell you something too?”

“Oh, that’s right. I was talking about that well, nothing special Then the uncle um… , Pout? The upper limit of emptiness? It’s a story that has been going on for a very long time. How far did that go?”

“If I remember right, I probably didn’t even greet Miss Cordelia well for half a year.”

It was Hestia who answered instead. Wow, that’s cool I was tongue-tied at his profit and loss calculation, which exceeded my expectations. It’s good to say it’s a profit and loss calculation, to be honest with your daughter’s best friend, and to be honest with a kid like that, I just think it’s narrow-minded. You may be angry because you broke your favorite vase, but that doesn’t mean you don’t say hello to your child for half a year.

“No, but after that, they all accepted my greetings.”

Cordelia hurriedly went to pack, as if she had read my delicate expression, but she was already too late. The image of a prospective father-in-law is gradually falling within me. At first, he had an image of a cool and dignified American middle-aged college professor, but he is gradually becoming a cowboy. Hestia also couldn’t say anything and just laughed bitterly.

“But why is that story all of a sudden?”

“Are you really stupid?”

Seol-ah, who was quietly listening to me, interrupted, as if she was frustrated with my stupid question. She looked at me like she was dumbfounded and said a word.

“A man who has been angry with a little boy for half a year for breaking a vase, how long will he be angry with the man who made his daughter cry?”

“Hmm…”

I shut my mouth and let out a painful moan. I knew it, but it hurts quite a bit to hear it through someone else’s mouth. Hestia also didn’t look very good, probably because she heard it herself. Perhaps he himself had anticipated it, so he planned it so passionately.

In the end, the story returns to the starting point. Capture Count Gracia’s heart somehow.

It is said that he managed to change the minds of the people around him, but in the end, he couldn’t even use his hands as much as the person he was aiming for the most from the beginning, so as a result, there is no result yet.

After thinking for a while, Hestia asked me.

“What the hell happened inside?”

“Um….”

Do you think that after knowing what happened, something new will come out? To be honest, there is no such thing. There couldn’t have been a proper interaction between the stubborn man who had no intention of dealing with me from the beginning and me who tried to solve the problem by driving it head first.

Nevertheless, I slowly began to explain what had happened inside. I might see something I haven’t seen

–

The Count hesitated for a while, unable to do anything about it, as if he was very flustered. Then, he seemed to have hardened his mind within a short time, and after ignoring me, he went to his seat and sat down. I was still admiring it inwardly.

Hey, it’s not easy to ignore what people are doing right in front of you. Do the hard thing Whether or not he knew what I was feeling, the count said in a calm voice.

“No matter what absurd things you do, my heart won’t change.”

His attitude was quite determined. I decided to just count five seconds in my mind. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. The count’s mouth was still closed, and nothing happened between us.

I got up cautiously and brushed my knees. Forcing an opponent who doesn’t like this will only backfire. The Count was taken aback, but he seemed to have no particular change of heart, just being embarrassed. He sipped alone after pouring alcohol into the glass with his expressionless face and voice returning before he knew it.

“My will is firm. I don’t really change what I’ve decided once. Others look at me and say things like stubbornness, but at least I don’t have the heart to change my attitude.”

The Count spat it out as if he were talking to himself, but unless you were an idiot, it wasn’t difficult to infer what he meant. No matter what you do, I have nothing to say to you, so I’m going to tell you to go back. I got up from my seat. It was because I was convinced that no matter what I did here, it would be impossible to change his mind.

It probably won’t work even if you hold on to the crotch of your pants and squeeze. He’s the kind of person who wouldn’t bleed even if he stabbed him with a needle. The Count asked me, who stood up and turned to me.

“Does it happen first?”

“Yes. Thank you for the invitation.”

He didn’t say much to me. No goodbyes, no blessings, no curses. I got out of the study. The door closed with a dull sound, just like when you first entered.

–

“This is the end.”

After hearing all of my story, Seol-ah put on a bewildered expression.

“Is that all?”

“Yes.”

Hestia also asked with her brow furrowed.

“What did you seriously think it would do?”

“No, I said it before, but she just said that she would try it. She never said that she was confident or unconditional….”

No, that’s because I didn’t think what would happen with this. I thought it would be okay if we had a slow conversation with the count for the first time. However, when I met him in person, the conversation didn’t seem to work, and in the end I just used the last resort. It wasn’t very successful.

However, Hestia, who had no way of knowing me, jumped up and came towards me.

“Oops, what are we going to do now!”

She began ramming her spikes down my back, full of her resentment. I twisted and screamed.

“It hurts! Are you sick?! Hestia, please speak. Huh?”

As before, her hands were very, very spicy. This isn’t bullsh*t, it’s real. It’s pretty stingy to just hit her naked. Hestia was the leader after such a long time, so she finally calmed down and went back to her seat. I picked out and hit her in hard-to-reach places, so I couldn’t even properly caress her sore back and twisted my body.

Seol-ah, who had been watching this skit with her half-open eyes, threw it out.

“I feel it every time I see him, but Mikhail must be pretty caught up.”

“I heard about it from their uncle before.”

Nilvas and Seola are the same. Everyone seems to think so too. To be honest, I think so too. I can’t even imagine a picture of me fighting Hestia. Beside her, Cordelia also nodded her head in agreement. Hestia seems to have been quite unexpected for our reaction. She shook her head in disapproval.

“What the hell are you talking about? No matter what I do, in the end, I always listen to Mikhail.”

“That… Is it run?”

At Hestia’s objection, Cordelia immediately went over. With a puzzled look on her face, she agreed with Hestia’s words this time. It’s because your ears are so thin.

“Well, what’s important isn’t who’s being held captive by whom.”

Seola said. Hestia coughed loudly, then timidly slammed her desk, stood up, and vigorously agreed with Seol-Ah’s words.

“Yes, Miss Lily. That’s not what’s important.”

“That’s right.”

“In the end, the important thing is how to convince my father.”

“Is there any way?”

“Well, in a rough way, but it is.”

She began to recite the plans she had in mind one by one. As her plan was revealed, the three of us’ expressions also slightly distorted.

After the story of Hestia was over, I was the first to speak.

“Hestia, are you serious about that?”

“You know I’m not good at jokes.”

“But, this is a bit….”

No matter how much you think about it, Hestia’s method should be called a bit radical, but there was a bit of an awkward corner. I showed disapproval first, followed by Cordelia and Seol-ah, who also responded to me.

“Yes, Hestia. Even when I think about it, it doesn’t seem that way.”

“Right. First of all, it is dangerous.”

However, Hestia’s attitude was stubborn. She said without blinking an eye.

“Cordelia said that earlier. My father is narrow-minded.”

“No… , I never said that I was narrow-minded….”

Leaving Cordelia, who suddenly became a bad person, alone, Hestia unfolded her thoughts.

“It will probably take another 10 years to wait for my father’s anger to subside. I don’t want to see the two fight each other for 10 years, I don’t want people around me to be uncomfortable at the wedding, and I don’t want to see Michael upset every time he comes to my house.”

While the three of us were frozen in front of her spirit, Hestia proudly declared.

“No matter what, I intend to settle everything until we leave for Mikhail’s house.”
