Even the Dedicated Maid’s Stepmother and Sister are Enemy Spies

“Uu… I can’t eat anymore…” (Casparleague)

Cas, lying on his back on the table, murmurs contentedly.

Despite being a kitten, his belly was as round as that of a middle-aged adult.

“But this place was a hit. Every dish that came out was delicious.” (Harold)

“Yes.” (Alexandra)

It was partly because I was hungry, but even taking that into account, the seafood was fresh and truly delicious.

Thanks to that, my belly is sticking out as well, even if not as much as Cas’.

“That said… it’s true that Monica’s mother might have been an enemy spy, but even so, they were married, and yet she was already having an affair with her subordinate… that’s the lowest.” (Harold)

“Just as Haru-sama says.” (Alexandra)

In agreement with my words, Xandra’s eyes turn crimson, filled with anger.

For a yandere like Xandra, she would definitely not be able to accept that. I would never do such a thing.

“Anyway, Margot and Sara are of no concern to us anymore.” (Monica)

Uncharacteristically, Monica furrows her brows and says this as if spitting it out.

Indeed, for Monica, this is a discussion she wouldn’t want to hear.

“Haru-sama, we should be going soon.” (Monica)

“Yeah.” (Harold)

Standing up, we exited the dining hall.

If possible, I want to avoid camping outside, so we need to hurry to the next town…

“…Your Highness Harold, someone is watching us from the roof of the building to the right.” (Monica)

Pulling me close, Monica whisperered in my ear.

To be targeting us in a place like this…? That means it must be orchestrated by either King Eibar or Uly.

“What should we do?” (Monica)

“I don’t mind engaging if they make a move first, but until then, let’s leave them be.” (Harold)

After all, I am a mere pawn in Enhaz. If I want the story to progress as it should, they cannot make a move against me. If they do, it would be when the protagonist… Owen is present.

I was thinking that when…

“?! They’re coming!” (Monica)

“What are they thinking?!” (Harold)

Just as we were about to reach the town’s exit, multiple knives came flying at us from behind.

I activated “Jet Black Shield Casparleague” and deflected all the knives.

“Haru-sama, there appear to be six enemies in total.” (Alexandra)

“Wow… they really underestimate us.” (Harold)

Even though our number might be less than half of theirs, we have Xandra and Monica, who can take on anyone.

Plus, I won’t lose to anyone when it comes to defense. Just six of them won’t even be able to graze us.

“Then, let’s finish this quickly.” (Harold)

“Yes!” (Alexandra)

With that one line, Xandra and Monica charged forward.

Figures in white outfits and masks appeared, ready to confront the two. However…

“Heh, this is trivial.” (Alexandra)

“Completely so. This isn’t even worth discussing.” (Monica)

“?!” (??)

In the blink of an eye, Xandra and Monica defeated four of the enemies, wearing expressions of ease.

On the other hand, the remaining two enemies trembled in fear at the overwhelming difference in power. If you think about it, wearing white outfits is practically a declaration of suicide. Quite surreal.

“So… could you explain what this is about? Margot, Sara.” (Monica)

“Wha…!?” (Sara)

At Monica’s words, both of the enemies, as well as myself, were taken aback.

In other words, just like Monica’s real mother, those two were also enemy spies…? No, no, didn’t we thoroughly investigate their backgrounds? This check system is way too lax.

“Shut up. Just because you can handle yourself a little, you…” (Sara)

“You are the one who’s getting cocky, Sara, aren’t you? Just answer me.” (Monica)

Before I knew it, Monica had circled behind Sara and was pressing a dagger against her neck.

Though they are sisters by blood, even if their mothers are different, I would rather not have them kill each other… but can I say that? I’ve had similar exchanges with that Wilfred after all.

“I-I didn’t think you could get away with this! If you keep me alive, I can be of great use to you! We know who our master is, and the true nature of that man’s abilities…!” (Sara)

“?!” (Harold)

Just as Sara was about to say something, a knife flew in from nowhere and pierced her forehead.

“Haa… to be an assassin and try to reveal the identity of your employer… what foolishness.” (Kaspar)

With a grand sigh, an older man dressed in a black tuxedo appeared.

I know this man.

“…You were the steward of House of Margrave Stone, weren’t you?” (Harold)

“Thank you for recognizing me. I am Kaspar, serving House of Margrave Stone.” (Kaspar)

I see… As the steward of the Stone family, which is Uly’s family, it wouldn’t be surprising for him to attack us. But…

“Why are you targeting us… no, why are you targeting me? If something were to happen, it would make it impossible to continue the story. Wouldn’t that be betraying your master?” (Harold)

“You need not worry. I have already prepared an alternative.” (Kaspar)

Kaspar raised his face and smirked.

I see. Just like Wilfred, he plans to do the same. I figured as much.

“Unfortunately, I can’t be easily killed. Moreover… you tried to lay hands on my ‘precious people’. I will never forgive you.” (Harold)

“My apologies. However, it’s not just Your Highness Harold you are hindering. Those two are in the way as well.” (Kaspar)

As Kaspar spread his arms, two knives flew toward Xandra and Monica.

The two calmly dodged the knives…!?

“Xandra! Monica!” (Harold)

““…!?”” (Alexandra/Monica)

The knife, which should have been coming from the front, somehow appeared from behind in an instant.
