Scum-lesse Oblige, I Have Been Reincarnated as a Scum Villain in an 18+ Game World, and I Absolutely Want to Grasp the Mob Life with the Power of My Knowledge of the Original Story

Misunderstanding…

“Iris Webern, daughter of the Webern Baron family. What on earth is the heir of the Randall family doing in a place like this?”

The red-haired beauty who is standing right in front of me is none other than Iris Webern, one of the beloved main heroines.

As her words indicated, she is a type of noble with a strong sense of justice.

Well, due to their strong sense of justice, the Webern family is a bit of an outcast in the noble society.

—to be honest.

I love this scene in the story.

In the story, Iris refuses to back down against Scumtos, who is obviously a higher ranking noble than herself.

This is what a true noble look like.

Iris is extremely popular among the heroines because she is stubborn on the outside, but if you raise your favourability with her, she will show her softer side towards you.

“Well, I wonder what you’re doing here as well.”

I answer arrogantly in front of the red-haired beauty.

Remembering Scumtos’ character in the story, I try to smile as lecherously as possible.

“Gufufufu…”

“Really, the aristocrats here are just lowlifes…”

Iris frowns as she says so.

“You’re not even discussing proper measure against the increase in monster attacks lately, instead you’re having endless parties? Moreover, this smell—you all seem to be having quite a blast inside.”

Of course, she is being sarcastic.

From the perspective of a noble from the frontier, it might seem that the nobles here lack a sense of urgency.

“…!!”

Furthermore, it seems that Iris noticed Riera’s dishevelled clothes.

“The maid standing behind you—”

With a disgusted expression, Iris says so.

“I can tell what kind of person you are by looking at your maid. You’re a total scum. If you weren’t a noble, I would’ve beaten you up right now.”

With those words, Iris puts her hand on her sword.

This is no joke. Iris Webern’s sword skills are nothing short of amazing.

In fact, in the story, Sieg, who just enrolled to the academy, had no chance against her.

“……”

Silence envelops the area.

At the moment, there are two main issues here.

The first one, I don’t know why, but it seems that Iris hates me even more right now compared to the story.

Probably it’s because she sees Riera in that condition.

Iris’ sharp gaze continues to intimidate me.

“You high-ranking nobles seem to misunderstand that you can use and manipulate others like puppets.”

“…eh, no that’s.”

A misunderstanding…

If anything, it’s me who was told to touch Riera’s chest, so the one who is being manipulated like a puppet is me!

Then, the second issue.

I can feel the murderous intent coming from the maid behind me, Riera.

“…what’s with that girl…disrespectful…acting all arrogant towards Ultos-sama.”

Riera mutters to herself so.

Every time I hear Iris says something bad about me, a chill runs down my spine…

In the end…

“W-Well …!”

Sensing that the situation is getting worse, I decide to quickly end the conversation with Iris.

“Interesting. Gufufufu…what a cheeky girl. How about I make you my concubine?”

I make the same petty remarks as Scumtos did in the story, looking down on Iris.

At the same time, I feel like letting out a sigh.

Are you wondering what will happen if I say something like that to a heroine with a strong sense of justice?

Even a fool knows the answer to it.

Yes of course, the answer is—

“Y-You…!!!”

Iris said so furiously.

She will definitely get pissed.

In an instant, Iris’ face turns as red as her beautiful crimson hair.

“…!!”

It seems that she can’t hold herself back any longer.

Iris takes a step forward and reaches out.

But she managed to refrain herself from drawing her sword.

Thanks to the results of my training with Enrique, a former F-rank adventurer, I can easily predict her movements.

I can avoid it if I want to.

However, I choose not to and take Iris’ slap head-on.

“Pishh!”

A dry sound echoes the area.

—this is where I have to show off my skills.

“Uwaahhhh!”

I yell as I dive onto the ground with tears running down my face.

I continue to roll around and cry in pain.

“It hurts! It hurts so much!!!”

I-I want to disappear, this is so embarrassing…

“Ultos-sama, are you okay!?”

Riera asks me, genuinely worried.

Without responding to her, I hold my face and look at Iris through the gap between my fingers.

What do you think of this exceptional scum move?

Even though I was acting so arrogantly earlier, I started crying like a little brat when she slapped me, what a beautiful scummy move.

Then, as expected—

“Weak…no pride as a noble…no shame… This is what a high-ranking aristocrat actually looks like…”

Even the one who has slapped me, Iris, is stunned.

Iris sighs deeply.

“I heard it from my grandfather. Nobles were once warriors who stood up to protect the people. However, it seems that such ideal nobles no longer exist. That’s why I feel like I don’t need to be here anymore.”

With those words, Iris turns her back and start to leave.

In the story, this would be the end of this event.

As it is, Stumtos would continue to be remembered by Iris as a piece of trash.

However, I can’t let it end like this.

—for the sake of my peaceful mob life.

“—wait.”

I call out to Iris as she turns and about to leave.

“What is it? If it’s about me slapping you, I’ll accept any consequences that may follow. You can do whatever you want with your power, just like you always have.”

“No, it’s not about that.”

I stand up and look straight at Iris’ eyes.

“A coin has two sides, right?”

“Huh?”

Iris looks confused, not understanding what I’m suddenly talking about.

Nevertheless, I continue.

“If there’s light, there’s also shadow. However, it’s because there’s shadow that light shines. In other words, everything in this world two sides.”

“What are you trying to say?”

What am I trying to say, you ask?

Indeed, that’s a valid question.

However, I can’t answer that question.

Because…
