Jobless Reincarnation: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events

Oswald shook the hem of his coat and walked toward Rudeus. "I have absolutely no interest in his fiancée or anything like that. What I'm interested in is Mr. Rudeus."

"Then you can have fun. I just remembered I need to go see Prince Gravel."

Yuri made up an excuse and left, leaving only Oswald and Rudius in the room.

"Alright, now it's quiet. His Highness Gravel has sent someone to your home to say that you are temporarily handling government affairs at the Silver Palace and will not be able to return for the next few days, so don't worry about your family looking for you."

Oswald removed the gag from Rudeus's mouth and looked at Rudeus's disheveled appearance with a mocking expression.

"You schemed against me, you bastards!"

Rudius cursed.

"Using the word 'scheming' is too derogatory. All of this is due to His Highness Gravel's grand plan. You should have died two days ago, but I kept you alive until today. You should be grateful to me."

Oswald hung the torch on the wall, moved a chair over and sat down in front of Rudeus. Seeing that Rudeus didn't seem to react, he said, "Don't you want to know why?"

"Bah! I've long suspected that Prince Gravel might turn against us. Darius will be followed by the Starks, then me, and when will it be your turn?"

Rudius spat, his spittle tinged with blood, almost splashing onto Oswarud's shoes.

"Hmph, how naive, Rudeus."

Oswald stood up and delivered a straight punch to Rudeus's abdomen, causing Rudeus to wince in pain.

Then, Oswald leaned close to Rudius's ear and whispered, "After you die, James will also pass away for some reason. Your son will inherit the Boreas family, while Yuri will inherit the Zeferos family. After Paul is wiped off the face of the earth on some fabricated charge, your sister will inherit the Nottos family. Finally, I, Oswald Aiuros Grerat, will become the head of the four Grerat families, swearing to submit to Prince Gravel and eliminating any worries for Prince Gravel."

"You, with your simple mind, would never understand. Prince Gravel is the one who will create the history of the Kingdom of Asra. He will annex the four great families, abolish the prime minister system, and make the royal power of Asra truly supreme. And I will be Prince Gravel's sword, forever recorded in the annals of history by future historians!"

"What a noble fellow."

Rudius laughed and said, "So you spared my life just to say this? If you release me, I will take my family and leave the capital immediately, and never care about the world again. You can continue to dream your heroic dreams, and I just want to live my peaceful life."

"No, you are not worthy, Rudius, hehehehehehehe!"

Oswald's expression gradually turned ferocious. "You are an accomplice in the death of my sister. Philip will die, James will die, Hilfiet will die, and you will die too. You will all be buried with my sister!"

"Sylphie? You bastard! What are you going to do to Sylphie?!"

Rudius glared angrily at Oswald, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

“I simply told Miss Hilfiet the truth, and for your sake, she decided to kill James and Philip herself.”

Oswald narrowed his eyes to slits, which sent a chill down Rudius's spine.

“Mr. Rudeus, do you think Miss Hilfiet is a fool? On the very day you were captured, she left the capital wearing equipment and riding horses provided by my Aiolos family. I can already imagine her being slaughtered by Sword King Kyrie and an army of nearly ten thousand men.”

"You bastard!"

Rudeus seems to be able to do nothing but curse now, while Osvarud keeps babbling on and on.

"Imagine her failed assassination attempt, being cleaved in two by the Sword King Kyrianu, her body then ravaged by soldiers, and finally devoured by the vultures circling overhead—wasn't that incredibly painful, Mr. Rudeus?"

"You! I'm going to kill you..."

Before Rudius could finish speaking, Oswald gagged him with a piece of cloth again.

“Mr. Rudius, Miss Hilfiet has been gone for almost three days now, and she will catch up with James and Philip in about a day’s journey. Even if I release you now, you won’t have time to catch up. I will spare your life so that you can witness your father and your daughters being killed, your beloved woman, your mother, and your sisters being raped in turn, and finally watch helplessly as your son calls someone else ‘father.’”

"This is what you deserve, Rudius."

Chapter 338: A White Rainbow Pierces the Sun (Part 1)

……

The air in the dark room was very humid; Rudius could even feel the moisture floating in the air.

He only needed to condense a tiny bit of water—just a tiny bit—to kill this bastard in front of him.

However, Rudius couldn't do it.

Now his shoulders and legs are pierced by steel pestles inscribed with binding spells, and he has no feeling in his limbs, so he can't use magic at all.

If I could find a way to break free from these constraints, the first thing I would do is fight my way out, even if it meant destroying the entire capital. I would then take Alice, Luo Qixi, my parents, three children, and two younger sisters and escape to a remote and impoverished place. Although life would be tough, at least we would be safe.

Besides, if what Oswald said is true, then is there any way to stop Sylphie from going to her death for him?

Perhaps there's no other way but to pray...

"Please, Silphie, don't force your way in... If you find it difficult, come back. Don't risk your life..."

"Please, Sylphie..."

"I can't live without you, and Lucy can't live without her mother..."

“Silphi....."

"Hmph, why are you so quiet? Listen to me properly, Rudeus!"

Seeing Rudeus staring blankly at the ceiling, Oswald suddenly felt ignored and, filled with resentment, punched Rudeus in the stomach.

Rudius winced in pain, his face contorting in agony once more, but his mouth was already gagged, and he could only make muffled "uh-uh" sounds in protest.

“Rudius, you should be grateful that I spared your life. That Miss Hilfiet told me before that she no longer wanted revenge. Look at her, she can even put aside her hatred for her own parents for you. How much she loves you, hahaha.”

Oswald kept babbling, "You really think James wants you to be his heir? That guy isn't senile, does he think he can just stand by and watch you take a demon as a concubine? You're so stupid. That old man James was involved in this too. And yet you keep calling him 'Uncle,' what an idiot, hahahaha!"

"Ugh! Ugh!"

Upon hearing this, Rudeus was so enraged that he wanted to bite the cloth in his mouth off. Veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were fixed on Oswald as if he wanted to bulge them out.

Previously, when Rudius had doubts about Gravel, James had reassured him many times, saying that Gravel would not take action against the four great houses. Rudius recalled that during the Battle of Gravel, Gravel had basically besieged Gravel City without attacking it, and thus he gradually lowered his guard.

Little did they know, this was just part of the other side's plan.

Just a slight lapse in vigilance, and it almost led to the destruction of their family and the loss of their lives.

Rudius suddenly remembered that the girl named Lala seemed to have said something similar, introducing someone who had experienced something similar.

How did that person get through it...?

"Oh, right, he also lost his family..."

At this moment, Rudeus's thoughts returned to reality. He didn't have that first timeline that came to his rescue, he didn't have particularly strong magic or physical abilities, and he was different from that person and from that Rudeus. Moreover, that first timeline Rudeus had also experienced the destruction of his family.

"Kill them!"

"Run!"

"kill!"

At this moment, sounds from the outside world seemed to come from the previously isolated dungeon of the capital, and could even be faintly heard in the dark room.

"what happened?"

Oswald rubbed his chin, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "Rudius, it seems someone's come to rescue you. Guess who it is? Trespassing is a capital offense. Even Prince Gravel didn't intend to go that far. Just wait for the person who comes to rescue you to die out there, hahahaha."

"boom!"

Suddenly, the door to the dark room was blown away by a huge shockwave, and the bricks on the ground were also lifted up layer by layer, raising a cloud of dust throughout the room.

"Cough cough cough! Who goes there?! How dare you break into the courtroom of a wanted criminal?! Do you have a death wish?!"

Oswald hadn't quite grasped the situation when he suddenly felt a chill and quickly drew his sword, preparing to fight.

"Shh!"

"what!"

In an instant, Oswald's sword-wielding arm fell to the ground. He clutched his arm with his other hand, enduring the excruciating pain as he fled toward the exit, only to be blocked by a tall woman.

In the dim light of the corridor, Oswald could vaguely see the woman's long, reddish hair and a pair of fierce, triangular eyes that resembled those of a savage beast.

It is Alice Boreas Greirat.

"I...I am...a Knight of the Palace...you dare to kill me!?"

Oswald roughly guessed the other party's identity, but the entire Bereas mansion was under his surveillance, and there was no information that anyone could escape and stand in front of him. He panicked for a moment and kept emphasizing his identity, trying to intimidate the other party.

Until the cold, sharp blade pierced his chest, his panicked eyes gradually became empty, and the dark red blood gushing from his mouth gradually blocked his throat. Then, he was thrown aside by Alice like trash.

"Rudius!"

"Rudy!"

Luo Qixi, who had just been standing behind Alice and used rock cannonballs to break down the door, rushed into the room before Alice.

"Luo Qixi? Alice?"

Rudius saw the two people entering the dark room and wondered if he was dreaming. Overjoyed, he suddenly felt as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.

"Rudy....."

Seeing Rudeus bound to the iron frame, his shoulders and legs pierced by steel pestles, Luo Qixi couldn't hold back her tears. She choked back sobs as she untied the ropes binding Rudeus, who then collapsed to the ground.

"It'll hurt a little, Rudy, just bear with it a little longer..."

One steel pestle after another was pulled out of Rudeus's body. The intense pain made Rudeus unable to even speak. He clenched his teeth tightly, as if he was about to break them. Luo Qixi, on the other hand, wiped away her tears while casting healing spells on Rudeus.

"Thank you, Luo Qixi..."

As the green light in Luo Qixi's hand gradually disappeared, Rudeus finally had the chance to speak.

"That despicable fellow has been killed by me. How dare he treat Rudeus like that? It's unforgivable!"

Alice walked over to Rudeus, then hoisted him up by the waist and started to carry him away. This action startled Luo Qixi, who had just been looking at Rudeus with heartache, but now began to worry.

"Miss Alice and I went to the school to look for Sylphie, but she wasn't there. Rudy, what happened between you two? Where is Sylphie?"

Luo Qixi asked.

But at this moment, Rudius was unable to answer Loki's question and could only feign an expression of unbearable pain from his wound.

"Oh dear, Miss Alice, be careful, Rudy's wound might get worse..."

"It's alright, Luo Qixi, it's nothing serious."

Rudeus relaxed and stroked Alice's hair at the back, then smiled at Luo Qixi.

Although he was extremely anxious, the fact that Luo Qixi and Alice had appeared before him meant that another force had intervened and changed the current situation.

"Um, Alice, put me down first."

After Rudius jumped off Alice's shoulder, he saw the state of the prison. Knights wearing the blue armor of the Notos family had killed all the prison guards and released the prisoners into the streets.

At that moment, Rudius suddenly heard Alice sniffing. He turned his head to look, but Alice dodged him. However, he still unexpectedly saw the slightly reddened corners of Alice's eyes.

"Rudius, don't misunderstand, I was blinded by the dust that Luo Qixi raised."

Alice explained.

"Oh, I see."

Rudeus continued along with Alice's words. Perhaps because Alice was heartbroken to see her own miserable state, but didn't want to cry like Luo Qixi, she made up a random excuse.

"By the way, how did you find this place?"

As Rudius walked outside, he asked, "And these Notos soldiers, could they be Princess Ariel?"

"That's a long story, but the first person to realize that Rudy was in trouble and to inform us was Aisha. She also directed your subordinates to find this place."

Luo Qixi replied, "It just so happens that a group of soldiers were there."

"Aisha... subordinate..."

Rudius roughly guessed what was going on, so he didn't press the matter further. Instead, he grabbed one of the Notos knights and said, "Is Princess Ariel in the city? Please take me to see Princess Ariel. I am Princess Ariel's subordinate and have important information to report to her."

"Okay, please follow me."

The Notos knights immediately led the way, while Rudeus turned and hugged Alice and Loki, giving them a trusting look.

"Thank you Alice and Luo Qixi for rescuing me. I have more important things to do, so I'll leave the family in your care."

"More important things..."

"Don't worry, Rudius!"

Luo Qixi and Alice nodded in succession. As if they were telepathically connected with Rudeus, they immediately understood his meaning and headed towards the Boreas family manor after leaving the prison.

At the prison gate, Izuru sat on the ground holding her sword, with two sword wounds on her arm. Nina and Kino lay to the side, their swords broken into pieces, but they appeared to have been knocked unconscious and had not suffered any fatal injuries.

As soon as they stepped out of the prison, they saw the streets in complete chaos. The street soldiers were fighting with the soldiers wearing Notos armor, and the Imperial Guard could be seen in the distance.

"Awoooooo!"
