136 Episode 136 "The Tabernacle: At the Marquis of Menmen" (1/2)
─ ─ The Marquis of Menment-
”You've paid for the trouble, Ethetta.”
”Ha, ha. Father.”
This is the residence of the Marquis of Menmen in King's Landing.
In the living room, the Marquis and his eldest daughter, Ethetta, were talking.
”Banish Colette from the Marquis and give him to His Highness Iris' Guard Knight.And with it, shall we make him an ally, and thus the joy of His Highness Iris? ”
The Marquis stroked his beard with satisfaction and looked at Ezetta.
Ezetta smiles gently.
”Although Colette is a bastard, he belongs to the prestigious Marquis of Menmen.If it were to become an apprentice, the name of Yuki-Grossalia would rise. ”
”Does he then thank the Marquis and report this to His Highness Iris?”
”Your Highness will know what the Marquis has given her daughter to his guardian knight.”
”Hmm. At least other nobles... such as the Duke... will understand that we respect His Highness.It's a reasonable way to use Colette. ”
That said, the Marquis looked at Ezetta with an exploratory eye.
”But I'm surprised you suggested this kind of use for Colette.”
”What do you mean, Father?”
”No, what? I thought you were dating her.”
”As a member of the Magic Guild, there is something called decency.”
Ethetta pinched the hem of the dress and thanked her.
”The Menmen are famous.Cain and DeMetel may be at your fingertips.Don't let Colette get dirty in the eyes of noble people.
”... ho”
The Marquis grabs the glass and shakes it up.
”I mean, you think there's a problem with how I do things?I think it's wrong to treat Colette like that.Shame on other nobles.Is that what you're trying to say?
─ ─ No
Ethetta knelt to the floor in a flowing motion.
”I apologize if you feel uncomfortable.Father. ”
Eazetta howls behind her mouth.
”Colette's mother seduced her father and was expelled from the Mansion.It was Father's mercy that he stayed in the Mansion until Colette was born.As a daughter, I understand everything. ”
”I was still young at the time.Sometimes I was defeated by the temptation of my servants.The junkies use a variety of manipulations for profit.Sometimes the noble are bewitched. ”
”I understand.”
”The wicked do not understand us.You may not be understood by such people.But ─ ─ ”
The Marquis of Menmen eats his teeth with a rip.
”I cannot allow other nobles to make us famous.”
”Is this about the Duke of Slay?
”That's right. The Duke of Sleigh has always looked down on us.It is a house divided from the royal family, and it is unavoidable for His Majesty's favor.However, I recently heard that the Duke's daughter became a user of the King's Horse (Road)!
Listening to his father's cries, Ethetta distorts her lips.
The Duke of Slay, a rival to the Marquis of Menmen.
It was Ethetta who told his father that his daughter Odette had become a user of the Lord of the Spirit Ride (Phantom).
It was also an order from my father.
My father kept saying, ”Tell me about the Duke of Sly.”
I put Ethetta in the ”Cain School” to bring my daughter closer to a reputable prince.To keep Ezetta in Prince Cain's sight.
