The walls were still decorated with paintings of bad taste.
Oh, right.
I am Owen Pepper now.
I was practicing magic when I collapsed, right?
“Ouch…”
My head is pounding as if I had a hangover from my previous life.
“Bochama.* It looks like you got up.”
*Son, or boy
Next to the bed, Sebas was waiting for me.
“… Sebas-san. Eh? Where is Katherina-sensei.”
“She is now in the presence of our Lord.”
“Um, why is that?”
“You will know if you go.”
Does that mean I should go?
Hmm.
Is it because I collapsed?
Surely, then, my father must be swearing at sensei.
He must be swearing like a monster parent.
However, in my father’s case, he was never saying this out of love for me.
You have an object to target, so you just abuse it.
You want to make your opponent feel that you are superior by dominating them by force.
I, Owen, understand that my father is a selfish man.
“Where is Katherina-sensei?”
“She’s in the reception room,” Sebas said, standing upright.
When I heard that, I immediately started moving.
My head hurts a little, but Katherina-sensei is more important.
My father is the kind of person who would not hesitate to use corporal punishment.
To relieve stress, he attacks his servants.
Seeing this, I, Owen, began to think that it was okay to harm the servants.
As I reached the front of the parlor, I heard a voice inside.
“I paid a lot of money for this shit. What the hell are you doing? You can’t even educate people properly!”
“That is…”
“You injured my son! I don’t see any signs of remorse.”
“I am so sorry.”
“Hmph. Do you think an apology will get you forgiveness? You vulgar barons! I’d like to know the face of the parents who raised an incompetent person like you.”
“Please don’t mock my parents.”
“Shut up! Do not talk back to me! That is right. I will educate you. Come here!”
“Pl-Please stop!”
I will not tolerate violence against Katherina-sensei!
I open the door with a bang.
“Father!”
In the reception room, my father was holding the teacher’s arm firmly.
“What’s the matter, Owen?”
I opened it with a bang and marched in confidently, but I didn’t think anything of it.
I just wanted to stop him from harming Katherina-sensei.
It would be useless to simply say, “Please let the teacher go” here.
If that is the case, it means that I dare to stand on the same ground as my father.
“I’ll educate her. She is a lowly baroness, she hurt me, and she even disobeyed my father. Let us make sure she knows her place.”
