Goblin Reincarnation in Another World (Anime/Manga)

Page 90

Is anyone else inside?

"It's gone, but...but..."

"But what..."

"Lord Bozeman's guards are everywhere in the villa...they are responsible for protecting the princess..."

"Responsible for protection, haha, it should be responsible for surveillance. It seems that Earl Postman has completely controlled the princess's side, to a greater extent than he thought. No wonder he didn't refuse when he was urged to usurp power. Having gone this far, it's indeed better to just change the property deed than to be a son-in-law. He can still force Princess Charlotte to marry him. He just needs to wait for the Duke to die."

"I'm sorry, I've offended you."

Joel had gathered enough information. After apologizing, he knocked the maid unconscious with a karate chop, then dragged her into a wardrobe in an empty room next door. He made sure the maid wouldn't suffocate inside before coming out. It would take the maid at least a few hours to wake up, which should be enough time for him and his master to get around.

After dealing with the maid, Joel carried Niu Zida to the Duke's door. Surprisingly, there were no guards there. For some reason, Joel gently knocked on the door. The door opened, and Joel quickly slipped inside and closed it behind him, startling the person inside. A girl with short black hair, delicate features, and a good figure, dressed in a maid's outfit, stood there without saying a word. Niu Zida recognized her immediately; it was Fujikura Yu, the maid from Princess Lover.

"You...who are you?"

Fujikura Yu looked at Joel in horror, and Joel quickly followed the instructions given by Niu Zida:

"We are here to help the Duke and the Princess, please trust us..."

Seeing that the other person was also a pretty girl, Fujikura Yu calmed down and didn't shout, but still looked at Joel with a suspicious expression and said:

"You said you came to help the princess?"

"Of course, only we can cure the Duke's illness."

At this moment, Ushiko Tatsuya also emerged from Yol's arms.

Chapter 301

As soon as it emerged, a goblin suddenly appeared, startling Fujikura Yu again. Seeing the goblin's reaction, Niu Zida was glad that he hadn't appeared when he was interrogating the maid in Yol and when he first met Fujikura Yu, otherwise these women would definitely have screamed out of their primal fear of goblins.

"You... why are you bringing goblins with you?"

“This is my master… We’ll talk about the details later. Could you please introduce us to Princess Charlotte? We can help with the Duke’s condition.”

"I understand... Please follow me."

Niu Zida was surprised that Fujikura Yu was so easy to talk to, but Fujikura Yu solved his doubts with just one sentence:

"You must be Mr. Niu Zida. Princess Charlotte saw you at the banquet and mentioned you to me when she came back."

Chapter 234 The Princess in the Villa

Chapter 234.

"It seems the princess has a pretty good impression of me?"

So they had met before. No wonder Fujikura Yu was initially startled but quickly calmed down. That's good, saves me the trouble of introducing myself. It seems Princess Charlotte has a good impression of me; at least she mentioned me to the servants after returning. Niu Zida thought smugly to himself, but his composure was quickly shattered by a single sentence from Fujikura Yu, who had led the way:

"Yes, Your Highness thinks that if a goblin can control a noble territory, then the world is indeed in complete chaos."

The impression was truly profound, but in my own view, Princess Charlotte was completely used as a negative example.

There is an entrance hall-style partition outside this room, through which the Duke's room is located. This Japanese-style room structure was requested by Princess Charlotte, who has a strong preference for Japanese culture. Therefore, there are many Japanese-style gardens throughout the villa, but Joel and Niu Zida did not see them because they came at night.

Fujikura Yu led Yoel, who was carrying Niu Zida, into the room. Sure enough, they saw a beautiful girl with long pink hair sitting in front of the sickbed, watching over an old man with a withered face.

At this moment, the old man lay on the bed with his eyes closed, seemingly asleep. Princess Charlotte found it strange that Fujikura Yu had brought a tall and beautiful woman. Upon closer inspection, she felt that the beautiful woman looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before.

“Your Highness, this is Miss Joel, Niu Zida’s maid.”

Speaking of Niu Zida, Charlotte suddenly remembered where she had seen Joel before. This was the goblin and his beautiful, shapely maids she had met at the banquet about two months ago. Princess Charlotte, with great poise, stood up and took the initiative to befriend Niu Zida and Joel.

"So it's Mr. Niu Zida and Miss Joel. May I ask what brings you here so late at night?"

"I'll be direct, Your Highness, I can find a way to treat the Duke's illness."

Niu Zida had limited time and felt that it was better to skip the boring small talk and get straight to the point.

"Oh? Is this true?"

"Of course, no problem, but first I need to know about His Majesty the Duke's condition."

"How can you be confident that you can treat my father's illness without even knowing about it? Mr. Niu Zida is quite an interesting person."

In fact, Niu Zida wasn't very confident about the treatment, since he didn't have a doctor in his harem. But as for prolonging life, at least Xin Hai was there. As long as Xin Hai could prolong the Duke's life, he would have the confidence to make Charlotte rebel against Count Bozeman, and his plan would be close to success.

“My father, Duke Philip, was originally in very good health. After going hunting with Earl Postman, he returned home and became bedridden. He became weak and soon even fell into a coma.”

"Oh? Could it be that Earl Postman plotted against His Excellency the Duke? Perhaps by poisoning him?"

"Of course I considered this possibility, but the doctors who came to see him all said that His Highness the Duke showed no signs of poisoning."

"Could it be that all the doctors we hired have been bribed?"

“Those doctors have served my family for many years and it’s absolutely impossible for them to be bribed. Besides, I’ve also had doctors examine my family privately, and they haven’t found any evidence of poisoning.”

Hearing Princess Charlotte's words, Niu Zida found it strange. He absolutely did not believe that someone could go out hunting and return so weak that they were bedridden. But judging from Charlotte's words, it was definitely not poisoning. So what could it be? Could it be a curse or witchcraft?

"Do you really think His Excellency the Duke has a normal health problem?"

"Of course not, but the reason is that it cannot be investigated."

We can investigate these things later. Right now, the most important thing is to ensure that His Majesty the Duke is at least not in mortal danger. Otherwise, Princess Charlotte will have to marry Bozeman. If Charlotte can refuse to marry Bozeman on the grounds of waiting for her father to recover, it can also stimulate his ambition.

"What is your attitude, Your Highness, regarding the engagement?"

Although Niu Zida had grand plans, he knew it would be better to find out Princess Charlotte's own intentions before taking any action.

"Of course I don't want to marry Count Postman. Who would like such an ambitious man? It was my father who arranged the marriage with him without considering my feelings at all. My father trusted him too much, which is why he used some unknown method to make things like this. However... after my father fell ill, I roughly understood why this happened. He was surrounded by Postman's people. My father had probably been sidelined for a long time and had no choice but to agree to this marriage."

Speaking of which, Charlotte

.

Chapter 302

Her beautiful eyes dimmed. It seemed that Princess Charlotte really disliked Earl Bozeman. This laid the foundation for their next move, Niu Zida thought.

"Your Highness, Earl Postman has recently been plotting to seize power. Are you aware of this?"

"Of course I know, but now that my father is so ill, I have no other choice. Now almost everyone around me is his people. Only when my father is by my side do I have Yu-chan with me."

Charlotte called Fujikura Yu by her nickname, which showed that although the two beautiful girls were named mistress and servant, they must have a very good relationship in private. They were probably like sisters, Niu Zida thought to himself.

"It's not difficult to treat the Duke's illness, but we need to get around the people around Postman. His current ambition is probably to hope that the Duke dies soon. If he finds out that the Duke's condition is improving, he might do something impulsive."

Do you have a way to cure Father's illness?

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have come to see Her Highness the Princess."

Hearing Niu Zida say this, Charlotte's beautiful, deep blue eyes couldn't help but light up, and her stunning face showed a joyful expression, which greatly moved Niu Zida. He had to admit that even in his harem full of beauties, Princess Charlotte's beauty was definitely among the best. Perhaps the only one in his harem who could rival Princess Charlotte's looks and figure was Mama Aponia.

"I'll agree to anything as long as it helps my father get back to health."

“Not only will I help you restore the Duke’s health, but I can also help you eliminate Earl Bozeman so that the Heatherlink family can regain power.”

"Really? I heard you're working with Postman, why are you helping me like this?"

Although Charlotte appears innocent and kind, she is, after all, of noble birth and cannot be completely naive in politics. When she heard that Niu Zida was willing to help her in this way, she naturally asked for his reasons, and she also knew in her heart that this would inevitably come at a considerable price.

"Well, the price, of course, is Princess Charlotte herself. I want you..."

"Mr. Niu Zida, you..."

Even the gentle maid couldn't stand it anymore; her delicate face flushed red as she scolded Niu Zida for his rudeness.

Charlotte stopped Fujikura Yu, saying:

"It's alright. If I could really exchange myself for my father's health, it would be a worthwhile deal."

"But Princess, how could you possibly marry a goblin..."

"Huh? Marry? I didn't say I wanted to marry Princess Charlotte. Are you misunderstanding something?"

"Hey?"

When Fujikura Yu heard Niu Zida say that, a slight blush appeared on her fair face. Could it be that she had misunderstood Niu Zida? If that were the case, it would be too embarrassing.

"So, Mr. Niu Zida, what do you mean by 'the price'?"

"I never said I wanted to marry you, Princess. I'm not getting married. My condition is that Princess Charlotte become my beloved..."

This condition was even more outrageous than marrying Princess Charlotte. Fujikura Yu was so angry that his face turned red and he couldn't speak. Even Charlotte's face turned ugly. She never expected that Niu Zida would make such an rude request.

"If you agree, I can restore the Duke to good health and help you regain control of the territory. I also guarantee that I will not interfere in the internal affairs of Heatherlink in the future, and all government orders will come from the Duke's family. Isn't that a good deal?"

Niu Zida, at this moment, seemed like a businessman, stating his final bottom line to Princess Charlotte. Fujikura Yu quickly intervened, saying:

"Your Highness, you must not agree to this condition..."

Chapter 235 The Promise with the Princess

Chapter 235.

Faced with Fujikura Yu's anxious advice, Princess Charlotte remained calm and smiled as she said to her:

"It's alright, I know what to do."

Hearing Princess Charlotte say this, Fujikura Yu didn't dare to interrupt. She just looked at Niu Zida with a hint of resentment and contempt. She had thought Niu Zida was the kind of knight who could save the princess from danger, but he actually took the opportunity to make such a despicable condition. Goblins are goblins after all. It was really stupid of her to have any illusions about such lowly creatures.

"Princess Charlotte, would you please agree to my terms?"

Niu Zida completely ignored Fujikura Yu's gaze. After all, he was just a goblin and didn't need to act according to human moral standards. Besides, his way of doing business with the princess was better than that of a usurper like Bozeman, right? At least the price was clear and fair.

“If it can really save my father and regain control of the territory, I’m willing to give you my body, but I have two things to ask you one last time.”

"You say it."

"First, do you really have the ability to eliminate Count Postman and save my father's life? Postman has practically monopolized military, financial, and personnel power within the family. My father and I are already puppets, and my father's illness is very serious..."

"Don't worry, I wouldn't have come if I didn't have the strength. Defeating Bozeman is not difficult. All I need is your legal support, Your Highness, which is why I came here specifically to ask for your opinion."

Niu Zida was well aware of Postman's strength. Besides, with so many maids around him, dealing with him would be a piece of cake. Princess Charlotte's legal basis was even the most crucial factor.

"Father's illness..."

Chapter 303

"Don't worry about that, there's definitely no problem. If I can't save the Duke, the contract won't work even if I help you defeat Bozeman."

Actually, Niu Zida was a little hesitant at this point. Compared to defeating Postman, Niu Zida didn't have a fundamental solution for treating the Duke. At most, he could only prolong the Duke's illness with Xin Hai. However, he couldn't hesitate at this time. In political transactions, confidence is also very important. If he hesitated, Charlotte would realize that he might not be completely confident and wouldn't cooperate with him.

"Okay, since that's not a problem, there's a second point."

"Huh? The second point?"

"Yes, I hope that after my father recovers his health and regains power, the territory of Echeberia can be ceded to the Duchy of Hetherink, thus ending the conflict once and for all."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, this little girl still wants to maximize her gains. As expected, people from noble families are born political animals. Charlotte is not as naive and innocent as she looks.

"Well, Mr. Niu Zida, can you agree to this? If you agree to this request, I can sign the contract."

"it is good……"

Although he felt bad for Amelie, this opportunity was truly once in a lifetime. He wanted to ride this beautiful princess, so he decided to bleed money this time. Niu Zida agreed as he thought to himself.

"In that case, I can agree. If the above points can be met, I am willing to become Mr. Niu Zida's..."

"Fortunately..."

"Fortunately..."

Charlotte bit her rosy lips, hesitated for a long time, and it seemed that she still couldn't accept the word. In the end, she could only force herself to utter it softly.

"Alright, the service contract has taken effect. If I cannot fulfill the contract, its contents will automatically become invalid, and I will not be able to demand any reward from Princess Charlotte for any work I do. However, if I fulfill the above conditions and Princess Charlotte fails to complete the contract, she will die from festering sores all over her body, and at the same time, the Duke's health will also be taken away..."

"How could they be so ruthless..."

“Miss Fujikura Yu, this is a transaction, and it’s not a curse. It’s a real service contract that can take effect, as long as both parties agree.”

"Of course, I will keep my promise and I will not joke with my father's life."

"Very good, it seems that Her Highness the Princess has already come to the corresponding understanding."

Ushiko-da, who was being held by Joel, leered and pinched Joel's large breasts before continuing:
