Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure



This restaurant was famous and expensive for a reason.

Not only was the food well known, there was also a fine selection of wines and there was excellent service.

It didn't take long before all of us had a glass of wine in front of us.

I wasn't really a wine guy, so I didn't know if this was good wine or not. However, the orange haired girl took one sniff before her eyes lit up and she started giving a detailed description of the wine.

I heard terms like "best pick of the crop, finely filtered with magic, and stirred with only the purest oak spoon", but I really couldn't understand most of what she said in the end.

This orange haired girl didn't keep talking about it for long as she realized that she was rambling.

After she caught herself, she couldn't help revealing an awkward smile before saying, "It's just one of the hazards of the occupation. When you get caught up in a good product, you just can't help yourself."

I nodded with a smile on my face.

I didn't dislike people like this.

These were people that worked hard to gain the knowledge that they had and they did it all to succeed. These were people that should be admired for their dedication and effort, so I would never look down on them.

While I didn't really know what good wine was based on taste, I could at least tell what was good wine with my palate.

When the wine touched my tongue, there was a nice fruity flavour that filled my mouth. It wasn't very strong, but it wasn't weak either.

It was a bold grape taste with a bit of sweetness and a bit of sourness, that also left a hint of bitterness in the end.

This was a nice bottle of wine, or at least in my mind.

But looking at the orange haired woman go, I could tell that she liked the wine quite a bit. Though I couldn't help being worried since she was just drinking wine without eating anything.

So I had to speak up in the end, which also alerted Nicole and Jessica who were trying to keep up with the orange haired woman.

All three of them calmed down and we were back in the mood to speak.

Before the orange haired woman told her story, I suddenly remembered something. I said with what I considered an elegant smile, "Right, I forgot to ask. My name is Zwein, what is your name?"

The orange haired woman also realized that she had also forgotten to introduce herself, so she said, "My name is Haley Montsoir."

All three of us couldn't help being surprised when we heard this.

After all, last names were very rare.

Those that had last names were normally those that had more…noble backgrounds. These were families that had lasted for a long time, which had given them the right to solidify these last names.

Seeing the looks that we had on our face, she revealed a bitter smile and said, "My family isn't as special as you think. We're just a family of merchants."

From this, I could hear that there was some kind of conflict between her and her family, but it wasn't time to ask about that now.

First, let's talk about her scumbag husband.

After calming down, Haley started telling them her story.

The story was one that was filled with quite the twist and turns, but the ending was actually quite predictable.

Plain and simple, she had married her current husband because of a debt that her father owed the father of her husband. At the same time, she had only married him since it was the only way that she was able to get away from her family to create this business of hers.

The store that was the third largest company in this city was completely owned by her.

It was financed through funds given to her by her family, but she had been the one that had built it up with her own hard work.

As for how she had obtained the funds, it was by marrying the son of the man that her father owed a debt to.

Then because her business was created with funds from her family, they became part owners of the business that was equal to her part. Adding in the part that she had to give her husband, that gave them full control of the business.

If they wanted to sell the business, she wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

So she had no choice but to stay with her husband and suffer through everything that he threw at her.

There were also other reasons why she stayed with him, but the main one was because of the threat of her family.

The moment that she tried to break up with him, her father had sent the threat of selling her business without hesitation. It was almost as if he wasn't her father, but rather the father of her husband.

But she knew the circumstances of the debt, so she didn't blame her father since she knew what kind of person her father was.

She knew that he was the kind that would always repay those that had shown him favour in the past, just like how her husband's father had done.

So she was in a situation where she was stuck.

After she finished telling her story, Haley said, "I can't do anything about it, I have to just suck it up and let him do whatever he wants."

Then as if remembering something, she suddenly asked me, "Are you alright though? Even if my husband doesn't have any abilities, he does have the connection that my father gave him."

She was worried that her husband would take revenge on her saviour, so if there was anything that she could do to help…

But I wasn't worried about that anymore since I had just heard about the background of her husband.

There really wasn't anything that could make me scared.

So I decided to reveal my identity.

"I don't look like it, but I'm actually a baron." I said with a confident smile.
