148th Episode

Despite Blancshe's stern expression, Pierre smiled without hesitation.

As if there was no distance between them.

"Blancshe. Long time no see."

Tang!

The [Peace Maker] spewed fire.

The bullet fired without hesitation pierced Pierre's left ear accurately.

Thud.

Blood flowed from Pierre's left ear. But Blancshe couldn't be satisfied here.

What she wanted was to cut off Pierre's breath like this.

With a sigh, Blancshe stood up from her chair.

Even though half of one ear was gone, Pierre still tried to smile.

However, he couldn't help but grimace one eyebrow, as if it hurt.

Blancshe's anger made her breathless and her throat dry.

She asked, almost spitting out the words, "How dare you appear in front of me again?"

"Understand, Blancshe. It's easier to visit the company than to attack your carriage returning to the Family House or to invade the Family House."

"Pierre."

"You should call me 'oppa', Blancshe."

He smiled with a wounded face.

At that moment, Ricardo stepped forward. "It's not even funny last words." As if he would rush at Pierre at any moment, his sword stood upright.

Pierre warned Ricardo with only his eyes.

"I wish the third party would stay out of this."

"I can't do that."

The energy between the two men staring at each other was intense.

It was rough and unbearable. Around that time, Blanche, who had barely calmed down, asked, "Why did you come alone? Where is Alphonse?" Unlike when facing Ricardo, Pierre's stern expression softened. Just like an older brother who doesn't know what to do because his younger sister is pretty.

"Alphonse is waiting outside. Unlike seven years ago, Alphonse feels a lot of shame."

Blanche was furious. And she didn't hide her feelings.

"It's not because of that, I guess I couldn't show up because I was afraid I would get angry." She still remembered what happened at the Giato department store back then. If GM hadn't been by Blanche's side at that time, no matter how strong Blanche was in this world, she would have been crushed under the ruins of the department store and suffocated.

Blanche smirked and aimed the gun at Pierre again. "It seems like back then, the collapse of the department store was also your work, Pierre."

"That's right. It was me." Pierre agreed more readily than expected. And he was quick to make excuses. "But don't misunderstand. If I had known you were in the department store, I would never have set off a bomb."

"How can I believe that?" "Blanche, have you forgotten? Seven years ago, I was the one who helped you escape from your house."

"How can I trust your words?" "Blanche. Have you forgotten? Seven years ago, I was the one who helped you escape from your house."

"So what do you want to say?" "Come back to the embrace of your family, Blancshe."

[system/ The branches of the World Tree are astonished. ]

[system/ Ricardo's stress is increasing. ]

GM and Ricardo were angrier than Blancshe, the person involved.

They thought there was a schemer who wanted to use Blancshe like the deceased viscount.

In their impatience, Ricardo stepped forward. Determined to separate Pierre's head from his body as soon as Blancshe gave her permission,

"Blancshe. There's nothing more to hear."

But what is this about? She's trying to stop Ricardo.

"Ricardo, wait a moment."

"Blancshe?"

"Wait." Blancshe firmly pushed Ricardo, who stood in front of her, aside. She noticed Ricardo's attitude.

Pretending not to, he was now whimpering like a dog and unable to do anything.

Ricardo was clearly worried that Blancshe might follow Pierre.

Without even knowing what Blancshe is thinking right now.

His gentle voice continued.

"I know too, Blanche. How surprised you will be by my words. But think about it. Father is no longer with us."

"There is no longer anyone in this world who will use our siblings recklessly."

"So you want me to follow you? Give up all the wealth and reputation I have built?"

"Enough with the preamble, let's get to the point."

Pierre called his own name as if to calm Blanche, but her hostility did not easily subside.

It was not funny. Moreover, didn't Blanche even send assassins to Mariette and Pierre?

She firmly resolved not to be deceived by Pierre and not to invite danger.

"It's disappointing, Blanche. To see me as the same kind of person as Father."

The laughter of Blancche exploded before my eyes.

"Ahaha! What? You really don't know that the Marquis and yourself are exactly the same?"

After filling the office with sarcasm, Blancche glanced at Ricardo standing behind me.

"Ricardo, I will tell you a very interesting story."

Ricardo silently listened to her words.

Blancche's voice continued, and Pierre's smile froze.

Now he realized that he was not superior to Blancche.

Blancche stared straight at Pierre again.

Ricardo felt relieved by her sharp reaction, and Pierre smirked.

However, Pierre was not as immature as the Marquis, and he didn't know Blancche very well.

So Blancche would say something like that to him.

"I'm disappointed, Blancche. I'm very disappointed in you."

"Pierre, I don't care how you think of me. Since I left home seven years ago, I have only cared about myself."

Blancshe answered without blinking an eye.

Quietly, Ricardo's fondness increased.

Unlike Ricardo, Pierre seemed to dislike her.

He twisted his face in regret.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have helped you seven years ago."

Blancshe farted.

"Blancshe, I, we didn't want it to come to this."

Suddenly, thud! The entire building shook.

The red magic circle that appeared under Blancshe's feet was threatening, even to an outsider.

Ricardo immediately rushed towards Pierre with his sword.

Finally, Pierre took out his own sword from his inventory.

Crash!

The sound of swords clashing loudly.

Ricardo ignited his hostility. "If I kill you, the mysterious magic circle will disappear."

"No. That's not true. That magic circle was created by Alphonse, not me. I'm letting you know in advance not to hold any false hope. The elemental mage's magic circle is harder to undo than a wizard's. It borrows power from another realm to exert force on the opponent."

Temporarily ceasing his grumbling, Ricardo immediately turned to Blanche.

"Blanche! Get out of there right now!" "It's impossible. I can't move my body."

"Blanche?!"

"It seems that this magic circle restricts the target's movements."

It was just as he said.

Since the appearance of the magic circle, Blanche couldn't even blink. Fortunately, her tongue could move, allowing her to speak.

Ricardo's already anxious face turned pale.

Pierre's lips curled into a satisfied smile as he faced Ricardo.

Pierre added an explanation with a satisfied expression.

"Is that all? Blanche. That magic circle is meant to seal the target's power. In just 30 seconds, you will no longer be the strongest in this world."

"Oh, really?" Despite hearing such a serious statement, Blanche merely raised an eyebrow.

Unlike Ricardo, who was anxious, she remained completely unfazed.

That was to be expected. She had her trump card.

It was a natural occurrence because she had a trick up her sleeve.

"GM."

{Yes, Blanche. I have released it. }

Pod. The magic circle that spewed an unprecedented red flame from her feet disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Like a miracle.

Both Ricardo and Pierre were amazed.

"How. . . ."

". . . . As expected, Blancshe. It's really difficult to persuade you."

Blancshe lightly smiled at the astonished gaze of the two men and aimed the gun at Pierre again.

"Is it my turn now?"

The villainess received the worship of the family and
