Chapter 4-34 : The Current Situation Of The Perverted Son-In-Law And The Troublesome Neighboring Territory (part 3)
「GaaaAaAAaahh!! It hurts!! I can’t breathe! Please…! Please!!」(Alex)
Unable to bear the pain, Alex collapsed onto the ground and started writhing in pain.
「Lady Mylia, seems like he’s still possessed by a demon. How pitiful…」(Josephine)
「I’m… not…!! Please! It hurts so much…!!」(Alex)
「Do you think I will believe you? The reaction of that Sinner’s Garb is the proof. Goddess Celis can see everything, even the demon in you!」(Josephine)
「O, okay, okay…!! Ugh, please forgive me…! Please…! Gaahh…!!」(Alex)
「Hmph.」(Josephine)
While looking down at Alex with a stern face, Josephine unfolded her hands.
Soon after, the Sinner’s Garb that Alex was wearing loosened, freeing Alex from the pain.
「Hahh… Hahh… Dammit! What a terrible treatment! I’ve been working so hard for this village and all I got is pain! I don’t deserve all this! This is bullshit!」(Alex)
「Working hard for this village is your duty, and you do deserve punishment for all you’ve done to Lady Mylia and her older sisters.」(Josephine)
「Shut up! You’re just an outsider! You don’t know anything about us!」(Alex)
「Well, yeah. I don’t fully understand your relationship with Lady Mylia and her older sisters. I only heard from them that you are a disgusting child predator who made them suffer. However, Goddess Celis knows everything. She knows exactly what you did to them.」(Josephine)
「Tsk. Goddess Celis, Goddess Celis… I’m talking to you, not your god! This is why I hate church people!」(Alex)
「…Are you insulting The Church of Celis?」(Josephine)
Josephine glared angrily at Alex.
（Uwahhh… Josephine-san looks so scary…）
「N, No, no. Of course, not. I’m… just kidding… Haha…」(Alex)
「Stop fooling around and go back to work! Bonnie-sama must be looking for you right now.」(Josephine)
「Hah! Who wants to go back to the old hag who treats you like trash!?」(Alex)
「Hee, seems like you haven’t suffered enough to understand your position in this village.」(Josephine)
While glaring at Alex, Josephine brought her hands closer to each other.
「W-w-wait! Okay, okay! I’ll go back to work, so please no more pain!」(Alex)
「Then hurry!」(Josephine)
「…Goddammit!」(Alex)
Alex quickly stood up and ran, going back to his post.
However, while running, he turned his head around and shouted to Josephine.
「I’ll definitely make you pay! You hear me, big-breasted old hag!?」(Alex)
「Old ha… Khh!! I’m indeed older than Lady Mylia and Lady Chloe, but I’m still young! Repent your sins!」(Josephine)
「GwaAaaAhhh!!」(Alex)
Feeling annoyed, Josephine put her hands together and did the chant to punish Alex.
Unable to bear the pain, Alex fell to the ground again, but this time, he hit his head on a log lying on the ground.
「Gaaahhh!!」(Alex)
He was rolling on the ground and screaming while holding his head.
（Pffftt! Serve him right!）
Mylia couldn’t stop giggling while watching Alex wriggling on the ground, suffering.
（I’m grateful to the heraldic officers for putting that wonderful garb on Alex before they left.）
Mylia recalled the faces of the heraldic officers who had returned to the royal capital, especially the face of Parites, their leader.
At this moment, she didn’t know that one of them was a traitor who gave Aaron the stone that could summon a meteor.
「Lady Mylia, you can leave that perverted man to me and Father (the priest), so you don’t have to worry about him. Please let me know if he ever messes with you again. I will punish him in the name of Goddess Celis for you!」(Josephine)
「Ahaha… Alright.」(Mylia)
（I should also thank Goddess Celis and these faithful believers of hers for taking care of that pedo bear for me. Goddess Celis, thank you!）
「Well then, shall we go now?」(Josephine)
「Un!」(Mylia)
Josephine unfolded her hands, releasing Alex from pain, and then followed Mylia flying with Gravity Magic to the location where they would build the cathedral.
◯◯◯
Mylia and Josephine immediately started working as soon as they got to the location.
They cleared the ground from rocks and tree stumps and leveled the ground level with earth magic.
It didn’t take long for the two witches to finish the task with magic.
After that, they decided to have lunch together and then go to the Griffon Village. To be exact, to the village hall that was built in the village square that had become their temporary base.
By the way, the Griffon Village was built right next to the Atwood Village, so that Mylia could respond immediately if the villagers there were in danger.
「Whoa… I’ve seen it many times, but this view never ceases to impress me. This is probably the only village in this kingdom where you can see griffons flying around… Ah, I think it’s Lady Chloe and Hypnus.」(Josephine)
Josephine was looking at the lying griffons through the window of the village hall.
She saw Chloe and Hypnus flying toward the hall.
After safely landing in the village square, Chloe went to the hall together with Hypnus.
「Onee-chan!」(Mylia)
「Lady Chloe, we’ve been waiting for you.」(Josephine)
「Sorry to have kept you waiting. Ah, you guys already have lunch, I see.」(Chloe)
「We indeed had lunch before coming here, but how do you know?」(Mylia)
「Fufu. I could tell thanks to the tomato sauce on the corner of your mouth.」(Chloe)
「Aa…」(Mylia)
「Don’t worry, I got you.」(Chloe)
Chloe took out a handkerchief from her pocket and cleaned Mylia’s lips.
「Mmm~ Mm~ …Thank you, Onee-chan!」(Mylia)
「Anytime~」(Chloe)
Chloe replied to Mylia with a smile, but then she stiffened her face, looking at Mylia and Josephine with a serious face as she put her handkerchief back into her pocket.
「Before we start our regular meeting, I have something to tell you.」(Chloe)
「Onee-chan, you look serious. What’s the problem?」(Mylia)
Mylia had a bad feeling after seeing Chloe’s serious face.
Meanwhile, Hypnus, who was rubbing his face against Chloe’s waist, glanced at Mylia as if saying, “Are you jealous~?”
（Khh…! I’m so jealous, but it’s not the time to pay attention to this naughty bird!）
「Listen. While I was flying with Hypnus, I saw the Griffith Family’s soldiers who were on patrol on the main road.」(Chloe)
The road leading to the Atwood Territory was dangerous because it was surrounded by the Demon Forest which was full of monsters.
Duke Griffith sent his soldiers to secure the road so that the immigrants could reach the Atwood Territory safely.
They built posts along the road all the way to the Southern City of Hamanulle.
「They usually ignored us, but this time, they were waving at me. Thinking that they might want to talk with me, I approached them, and they gave me a letter.」(Chloe)
「A letter? Is it from Aria-san’s father?」(Mylia)
「No, it’s not from Duke Griffith… It’s from Baron Hansen…」(Chloe)
「Baron Hansen!?」(Mylia)
（Ughh… I wonder what he wants from us… Did he find out that I’m hiding the people of the Griffon Village here…?）

Uh-oh this can’t be good nothing good ever comes from that fat pervert…..
Anybody wanna place bets that it’s the scheme to try to get mylia to marry his fat arse by her scumbag family in the past come back to haunt her?
IIRC, Baron Hensen had arranged for Chloe to marry into his family, not Mylia (Chapter 1-22); though it was Mylia that foiled the arrangement (Chapter 1-25). Idk exactly how Hensen would know for certain that Mylia did it (maybe by connecting the dots of the rumored “Dragon Slayer” Mylia); but he certainly does not have any evidence against her to present the Queen.
Another more likely motive is that Hensen is just jealous and angry that he’s getting outcompeted by two pre-teen girls, one of whom is the very girl he had plotted against.
Your right it was Chloe my bad. And your take on what the letter could be about sounds alot more plausible because based on what little we’ve got on him it very much sounds like he’d throw a fit over 2 pre teen girls being more successful than him which based on his track record doesn’t sound to difficult to beat. And one of those pre teen girls was so close to being his wife (thank God that didn’t happen though!) so I can see him being extra jealous.
Wasnt Aaron planing to marry Mylia with Baron Hansen since Cloe was at the academy the day Amnesia came to the Atwood territory to have Mylia take the exam? And a couple chapters ago he tried to marry his son to Mylia but she played the “I already have a fiancee who has an higer position than you so you cant complain” card
not Baron Hansen, but the merchant, Jalda. He tried to marry his son, Jabel, to Mylia
Technically speaking, isn’t Mylia at least 21 years old by now?
And yes, their parents tried to marry off both Chloe AND Mylia to Baron Hansen for their own benefit.
