Reincarnation Sim Game

Chapter 167 167 – Another Idiot

Even when she danced with Daniil, Renee still showed her disgust. Of course, that sparked whispers among the visitors, most of whom were nobles.

“So, this event wasn’t even attended by the head of the Kozlovs, his wife, and their first child?” Lauren chimed in while Igor was doing the closing speech instead. “They’re all on business overseas and won’t be here until the main day? Do they really intend to hold this wedding or not?”

“As Elise said earlier, this wedding seems rushed, although I must admit, they are great at preparing all this…” Alain stopped his words when Jacques Emilien came to him and the others. Renee’s father was wearing a luxurious crimson dress, accompanied by a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. Even though it was decorated with a few wrinkles, her face was similar to Renee’s.

“I won’t say much.” Jacques stopped very close to Alain and Lauren. “I know you guys are Renee’s friends, and you think releasing her is good for her. But believe me, I did all of this for Renee’s happiness.”

Lauren narrowed her eyes. “Not to help the Emilien family who is about to go bankrupt?”

Jacques didn’t answer and just left the place. Meanwhile, his wife gave the others a big smile and followed the husband.

Elise and Yua exchanged glances. They, along with the others, felt that the smile from Mrs. Emilien was no ordinary smile. The woman looks tired._.

The bell signaling the end of the party had rung. The nobles who were there dispersed. On the other hand, a waiter came up to Elise and the others.

“Please, I will escort you all to your rooms.” He bowed.

“They’re too confident to let us sleep in their house, huh?” Lauren chuckled bitterly.

Alain shrugged. “We don’t know. Maybe the Kozlovs just wanted to be good hosts.”

“Wait a minute.” Elise approached Renee, who was walking out of the hall.

The blonde woman lifted her face and looked at Elise with teary eyes, something she had not shown throughout the party. As Elise hugged her, Renee had a single tear in her eye.

She was about to speak, but Elise whispered something to her, then placed a folded piece of paper in her hand. Renee let go of the hug, trying not to show any expression of surprise or anything.

Elise waved her hand as Renee joined the group leaving the hall. The female warrior could see that Ciel, the scout bee, had landed on Renee’s skirt, hiding between a fold.

Daniil entered his room with a long sigh. The party was over long ago, but he had to be with the old men for drinks in a more private place. Tomorrow he’d have a lot of tiring events to do, but he wasn’t getting enough sleep now and was reeling from drinking too much.

Not to mention the strippers, which made him unable to focus on tomorrow’s event. It was all really something unimportant. He was about to officially become someone’s husband, but why did the old men insist on calling the dancers?

The man took off his armor, then sat down on the sofa of the luxurious room, taking a deep breath for the second time.

“Good evening, Mr. Daniil Kozlov.” A woman’s voice was heard from the corner of the room, instantly making Daniil flinch and stand up. “Oh, don’t worry, I won’t attack you. I just wanted to talk to you.”

Daniil, who had already lifted a metal flower vase, tilted his head as Yua walked from the corner of the room.

The guard to Daniil’s room wasn’t as strict as Renee’s. Yua only needed to tease one of the guards to show her the place.

“Aah, you’re Renee’s friend, right?” Daniil lowered the vase. “What do you want?”

“It’s about the marriage of the two of you.” The kunoichi wore a smile. “Can you see Renee’s condition now?”

“What do you mean?” Daniil raised an eyebrow and sat back down on the sofa. “She must be happy, right?”

Yua was a bit taken back by the man’s words. “Well, do you love her?”

“Of course.” Daniil, who was now turning his back on Yua, answered. “Therefore, I insist on making a full party for my future wife, even though the preparation time is very short.”

“So…” Yua scratched her hair, feeling that this conversation would be tough. “You think that Renee loves you too?”

“Absolutely,” Daniil answered without hesitation. “I’ve admired her since that tournament but didn’t have the courage to approach her. She feels out of reach… Well, I don’t know why I feel that way. However, everything changed when Lord Jacques Emilien said that she also had feelings for me.”

The kunoichi was at a loss for words after hearing that. “Let me guess, Renee’s father insisted on this marriage taking place immediately.”

“He’s a good father, eager to see his daughter happy.”

Yua looked up, shaking her head at Raymund. The kunoichi could still come up with various arguments to disprove Daniil’s words, but there was one that would make it all pointless. Indeed, this negotiation was Yua’s suggestion. She thought chaos would embarrass the Kozlov family. But the kunoichi now felt like giving up.

“Yeah, I agree that he’s stupid and dense. Either because he’s drunk, or that’s just his nature.” Raymund sighed. “But, from the tone of his voice, he was so sure that he and Renee loved each other, even though the evidence said otherwise. You better leave, and we’ll move on to the next plan.”

Without saying anything, Yua walked to the window, then got off while using the rope tied there.

“So, what’s the point of you asking all that, Miss?” Daniil asked and, of course, got no answer.

He looked back, saw no one there, then got up and checked the rope used by Yua. The man scratched his head, pulled the rope, and untied it from the window frame.

He studied the rope carefully. The material is a bit rough and seems like it would be a bit painful to use to tie people up. He thought about whether the rope was suitable to tie his future wife. Earlier, the old men said that women like being tied up during sex.
