The servant, who could still be considered a boy, ran off with an anxious look on his face.
There had been a lot of trouble, so I didn’t plan to do anything reckless.
So, what to do now?
It might be better for me to stay behind the scenes, rather than step forward.
Or, that was what I was thinking.
“—just let me in, you insolent thing!”
With a clamor, the servant was pushed and hit the front door.
Her face hit it so hard that her forehead was cut open and it was bleeding profusely.

The man turned his eyes towards me, glaring, then his eyes widened and he closed his mouth.
I put my hand on the servant’s forehead and cast a healing spell.
The woman remained unconscious, so I told the other servants to take her to the back. At the same time, I asked them to receive this man as a guest.
Once Belus arrived, he should be able to handle the rest.
If they had stayed here arguing, more people would get hurt.
When I stood up and turned around, the man was scrutinizing me with an appraising gaze, and then gave me an unpleasant smile.
“Is there something on my face?”
“No, no. Hahaha! How amusing! To think you’d resemble that woman so much!”
Since he knew my sister, this man was definitely a noble.
But the way he said it was too crude for someone who might have met her in a social setting.
Was he of the same rank as Jill, or someone with power?
I neither confirmed nor denied his statement about my sister, and dodged it with a smile.
“I am sorry we could not give you a satisfactory welcome, as we had no visitors scheduled.”
“Hmph. So this is your reception to sudden guests? Rudeness?”
“No, of course not. Such a meaning wasn’t my intention. It is however common practice to inform the host beforehand…. ah, apologies, we shouldn’t stay standing while talking. Please, I’ll show you to our parlor.”
“You bastard—are you insulting me….!”
“……”
Just where was I rude?
My compromise mode was on max—I was even using honorifics! There was nothing I could do to be more polite!

Update 2/2
Lilius is doing his best with polite speech here lol, it’s really apparent in JP
Thank you for the chapter!!! 💖💖 I hope this rude uninvited “guest” is not the craftsman who is to process the gems for Lilius. And I also think he actually deliberately picked the time when Belus is not around to get in by force. I want to see which comes first – Lilius’s patience snaping or Belus returning.🤩
Thank you!
Who is this lady piece of poop?! Piss off! Who are you! How dare you act violent at other people front door and hurting other people employee!! ARE YOU A KAREN!?!
Thank you for the chapter ❤️
