"You...you shouldn't say anymore..."
"Look at yourself now! Do you still look like a swordsman? Do you still look like a swordsman of the Water God School?!"
"Stop talking...stop talking..."
Rudius's words were like a sharp blade tearing open the wound in Izoruti's heart, slicing wildly beneath the pus and blood.
“And from the moment you accepted me, you didn’t even uphold your principles towards Albert, did you?”
"I beg you... please... please stop..."
Izuru retreated step by step, while Rudeus pressed forward step by step, eventually cornering Izuru against the wall. Seeing that she had nowhere to retreat, Izuru could only cover her ears with her hands, but Rudeus forcefully pried her arms off and pressed her against the wall, as if she were no longer a King-level swordsman of the Water God Style, and even her instinct to resist had disappeared.
"Let me tell you, these are the same words I spoke to the Water Goddess. You know very well why the Water Goddess's words couldn't help you. She couldn't help you, but I can!"
"Why...why are you saying that...?"
"Izoruti asked timidly."
“We are all victims of that incident.”
Rudius unbuttoned his shirt, revealing the wounds he had sustained while being a hostage: branding marks, cuts, and broken and twisted joints. "Albert is dead. The torment I endured during that month as a hostage was no less than your mental anguish. My body was damaged, and I worried about my two wives at home, who were even pregnant. I wanted to live on alcohol like you, but I couldn't."
“I’ve been in the same state you are in before, but it hurt the people I cherish most and the people closest to me. I can’t accept going back into that muddled state, so please come out of this. If you don’t bring the real culprit to justice, every drop of alcohol you drink is an attempt to exonerate the other person.”
Do you know who the real culprit is?
“I know, I know very well who it is.”
After saying that, Rudius picked up his shirt and took out a bloodstained letter from his pocket. "This is one of the pieces of evidence. The person who obtained the evidence has been silenced by the real culprit. This was rescued from his house by my men."
Izoruti took the letter, opened it, and almost all the wine she had drunk sobered up as she listened to Rudeus continue.
"As for Lady Water God, she wouldn't take action against the real culprit because she wouldn't dare risk the entire Water God Sect. But I could, however..."
Rudius said.
"But what?"
"Izoruti asked."
"However, now that the witness is dead and the investigator is dead, we only have this one piece of physical evidence. We can only guess who the murderer is. To confirm the case, we need to dig deeper."
Rudeus looked directly into Izuru's eyes again, and Izuru did not flinch. Despite the aggressiveness, greedy desire, and unfathomable darkness revealed in Rudeus's eyes, Izuru began to subconsciously believe what Rudeus said.
"If we continue digging, it will involve more people, possibly even your closest relatives. Are you prepared to take that risk, Isorti?"
"I......"
Izuru hesitated. She began to avoid Rudeus's eyes, which seemed to demand something from her, as if to say that she would have to exchange something for the truth, and that she would have to pay a price to punish the real culprit.
"I have."
After they finished speaking, silence fell between them, and the only sound between them seemed to be the gurgling sound of Izuru swallowing.
"Then please exchange it with sincerity, Miss Isorti."
After saying that, Rudeus kissed her again heavily, but this time Izzo didn't struggle and chose to accept it.
Feeling the warmth of her lips, Isorti's mind went blank again. She closed her eyes helplessly and felt her body being pressed heavily against the wall by a heavy body. The other person's hands frantically took from her body, which made her already heavy chest feel a little tense after being kneaded.
When the other person's finger reached downwards, she couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, her body instantly stiffening.
"don't want......"
Izuru instinctively pushed Rudeus's hand away, but not with much force, and Rudeus could easily attack again.
"Okay, I'll accept the deposit now, and I'll come back to collect all the goodwill next time."
But Rudius did not continue, and instead put on his shirt and left.
"I will contact you again if things progress, Miss Izoruti."
......
"Rudy, are you alright?"
Seeing Rudeus coming downstairs, Luo Qixi asked with some concern, "Rude, were you fighting upstairs? I heard things being smashed, but I didn't dare go up."
"That's it."
Rudius scratched his head, wiped the drool from his mouth, took a gold coin out of his pocket and threw it on the counter, then walked toward the door: "This is for the broken table and chairs."
As Rudius's figure gradually disappeared into the distance, Luo Qixi hurriedly rushed upstairs, but she paused for a moment when she opened the door to her private room.
The girl in the room had messy hair and her clothes weren't very neat. She covered her face and cried silently in the corner.

Chapter 292: Rudy, you love me, right? (Part 4)
......
It was already after dinner when Rudeus returned to the mansion. He began to ponder a question: should he sleep with Alice or with Sylphie tonight?
Although the two are seven months and six months pregnant respectively, both are at very vulnerable stages of life, I have mostly chosen to stay in Silphie's room for the past month or so. She sleeps very well and for a long time, which is one thing, but another thing is worrying. Whenever I think of Silphie, I can't help but think of some heart-wrenching things, so it's impossible for me to treat her equally.
However, in other aspects, Alice's demands on Rudeus are surprisingly low. She usually has a carefree personality, and sometimes when Rudeus teases her or makes jokes, Alice's mind doesn't quite catch up. She either needs a while to react or needs Rudeus to explain things to her before she can understand.
After explaining, he inevitably received a beating from Boreas's iron fists, but Alice, dragging her large belly, moved much slower than before. So, as soon as he saw Alice about to throw a punch, Rudeus pretended to be panicked and pointed at Alice's belly, saying, "Watch out for my two sons!"
This caused Alice to go from anger to joy. She would lightly punch Rudeus twice and pout cutely, pretending to be angry. She was both clumsy and mischievous, and it seemed that these two unrelated words were just right for Alice.
"Rudius!"
As soon as Rudius heard the voice, he saw Alice sitting on the sofa in the living room with a book on her stomach.
Her long, crimson hair cascaded down her shoulders and onto Alice's chest, like a red-tailed sable fur blanket covering her. Under the dim yellow light of the crystal chandelier on the table, Alice's slightly plump face looked chubby and very cute.
"Everyone's resting now..."
Rudius walked up to Alice, cupped her chubby cheeks in his hands, and asked gently, "Were my two sons well-behaved today, my Miss Alice?"
"Hmm, my son is still fighting inside me... Hmm? Hmm... Hmm..."
Before Alice could finish speaking, Rudius began to rub her face up and down, making her squeeze her mouth into an "o" shape one moment and a "v" shape the next.
After Rudeus had rubbed her face enough, he let go, and Alice was able to continue talking.
"Rudeus! These two little ones were fighting in my belly today. Do you think they'll grow up to be swordsmen or... um..."
After rubbing her face, Rudius's hands naturally didn't stop. They moved downwards, reaching inside Alice's shirt to continue rubbing. Perhaps due to her pregnancy, Alice's already impressive breasts were larger than usual and exceptionally sensitive. Even a simple rubbing or touching would cause her body to stiffen instantly, and her face would flush with a shy blush.
After rubbing for a while, Alice got annoyed and angrily punched Rudeus in the chest. Rudeus winced in pain, clutching his chest and curling up on the ground. Alice glanced at Rudeus lying on the ground, then looked at her own fist, wondering if she had used too much force. Was this a bit too much?
"Rudius, you big pervert, you deserve it!"
But then she suddenly recalled the times Rudius had lifted her skirt, pulled off her blanket, and touched her here and there, and suddenly felt that she hadn't gone too far, so she got up and went back to her bedroom.
After Alice left, Rudius picked up the book that Alice had left on the ground. Seeing the title, "How to Be a Good Mother," he couldn't help but look up in the direction of Alice's bedroom, and a warm feeling rose in his heart.
"Looks like I'll have to mess with Sylphie tonight."
......
"squeak...."
After taking a bath, Rudius opened the wooden door to Sylphie's bedroom, tiptoed, and peeked half his head into the room. "My little sleeping beauty, my dear Miss Sylphie? Are you asleep?"
"Ugh..."
Hilfi leaned against the headboard, stretched, rubbed her eyes, and looked at Rudeus at the door. She said listlessly, "Rude is back. I haven't gone to sleep yet. Come in."
Rudeus entered the room, hung his yukata on the clothes rack by the door, changed into the pajamas that had been prepared for him, and crawled into Silphi's bed.
Actually, both Alice's and Silphi's rooms have pajamas prepared for Rudeus, but sometimes Alice tears Rudeus's pajamas, so he changes them more often. In Silphi's room, the person whose pajamas are often torn has changed from Rudeus to Silphi.
"Rudy, you're a little late today. Have you been busy all this time?"
Hilfi snuggled into bed, resting her little head on Rudeus's shoulder like a cute little squirrel. "Rudeus, what do you think we should name our child?"
"Hmm... let me think..."
Rudeus put his arm around Sylphie's shoulder, pressing her body close to his, and said, "If it's a boy, how about we name him Vegeta?"
"Vegeta?"
Sylphie puffed out her cheeks, her wine-red eyes blinking as she looked at Rudeus and said, "What a strange name. Does it have any special meaning?"
"Vegeta is an incredibly powerful character from a book I once read. He could destroy the world with just one of his techniques."
"Wow, there's such a story? That's even more amazing than Laplace's back in the day..."
Hilfi buried her head in Rudeus's arms, rubbing her little nose against his neck twice. "Rude knows so much. What if it were a girl?"
"If it's a girl, let's name her Lucy, taking a part from both of our names. If we name her Sylph, it would sound like calling her Sylph. So I took the liberty of putting my name first."
"Hmm... Rudy really thought of everything."
As she spoke, Hilfi moved her nose closer to Rudeus's neck, repeatedly confirming his scent. When he wasn't home, these scents that had entered her nostrils were a good remedy for loneliness.
"Sniff...sniff..."
"Rudy...."
Seemingly sensing something, Silphie tilted her head back and asked in a sweet voice, "Rudy, did you go to see Miss Alice first?"
"Yeah, how did you know?"
Rudeus felt a jolt in his heart, but thankfully Sylphie was referring to Alice.
"It's nothing, I just heard the noise outside and guessed what it was."
Hilfi buried her head in Rudeus's arms again. "Rudeus, you love me, don't you?"
"Of course, of course I love you."
Chapter 293: The Prey Acquired
Jobless Reincarnation Fanfic: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events [Chapter 293] Prey Acquired
Chapter 293: The Prey Acquired
......
Another month passed, and Alice's fetal movements became more and more obvious. The situation was similar for Silphie, since the two were only about a month apart. Rudeus was also spending more and more time at home these days.
Paul and Senis also moved to the Boreas estate, partly to take care of their two unmarried daughters-in-law, and partly at James's request.
Philip also intended to come to the capital, but James repeatedly detained him in his territory for various reasons. However, since he had no military power and had to keep track of the garrison in the Milports territory, Philip had no choice but to give up, even though he had the sword King Kyrianu in his hands.
However, Rudius was unaware of what Philip had encountered. The secret letter he received from Alphonse said it would arrive when Alice was about to give birth, and there was no other information. The letter also included the phrase "everything is as usual," so Rudius could roughly guess what the situation was.
It was late autumn, and the weather in the royal capital, Ars, was getting colder day by day. Especially in this season, it was unusually cold, and there were even signs of snow in the last two days. It was just like La Noah.
The political landscape of the royal capital, Ars, has been like a rollercoaster ride these past two months.
In the past two months, three lower-ranking overseer ministers and one mid-ranking overseer minister impeached Chancellor Darius and Milis for their involvement, even stating that Albert's murder was orchestrated by Darius and Clive Moremore, the grandson of Pope Milis. However, they did not present sufficient evidence. Two days later, all four overseer ministers also died tragically at home.
This forced Darius to come up with some excuses to clear himself, such as the Yerosnek family trying to contact Clive Morimore through him but being refused, etc. However, Clive Morimore also denied it after being summoned, claiming that he had never contacted the Yerosnek family.
Carter Yerosnek, who had finally been promoted to the position of Minister of Finance and restored his family's glory, was demoted again because of this incident, this time even being banished from the capital.
However, just then, the Kingdom of Lanoa, the Kingdom of Nellis, and the Duchy of Basheland, with the support of the Kingdom of Asra, launched an eastward invasion into the northern lands. As a result, the entire Yerosnek family moved to the northern border of the Donadi territory, to manage the Crimson Dragon Jaw under the administration of the Zeferos family, and to keep an eye on the movements of the three great magical kingdoms.
With the king's treasury gone, the new Minister of Finance of the Kingdom of Asura was directly appointed by the king to Freitas Horpto, the head of the Horpto family, who was on the verge of falling out of the upper nobility. In the past ten days, this family, which was about to fall out of the upper nobility, has been courted by many powerful forces and has gradually stabilized its position.
After Luke Notos Grellat was appointed lord of the Milbots, the second princess, Ariel Anemoy Asra, began to travel around the kingdom with Dirik Bartlett, spending the kingdom's treasury to give alms and help the people of Milbots who had been displaced by war to rebuild their homes. She also led her guards to punish evildoers and eliminate local bullies in some small places, earning her a very good reputation among the people.
However, Gravel only saw this as a game of make-believe in the countryside and didn't pay it much attention.
The one who shone the brightest during these two months was undoubtedly Oswald Aiuros Grerat, who was made a knight by the king for his meritorious service in capturing and killing Rob Nottos Grerat in the Battle of Grep, and enjoyed immense prestige for a time.
Rudius, on the other hand, served as the deputy to the head of the Magician's Guild of the Royal Guard, the Royal Guard Knights, and also became a visiting professor at the Asura Royal Academy, where he had his own office.
"Let's get down to business, the fish should be biting the hook soon."
In his office, Rudius tore the intelligence sent by North Saint Jad into pieces and threw them into the stove. He then turned to a "young teacher" beside him and asked, "Knowing Cliff's eating habits and travel times isn't enough. Most importantly, have you found out what kind of women he likes?"
"Lord Rudius, if I may be so bold, I have heard from his servant that he is fond of your betrothed concubine."
"The young teacher said."
"puff!"
Rudius had just taken a sip of Roja black tea when he spat it out. He coughed violently a few times to clear his throat and calm himself down before saying, "Sylphie is very beautiful and outstanding, but that kid is not good enough for her."
