Chapter 2 - I am such a trash!? Part 2

The sudden revelation was too much for him to bear. If he remember correctly, Anna was later revealed to be a saint who possessed tremendous magic talent. She also has an ability called "Innate Awaken", which draw out the full potential of a human. It also how Edgar was defeated by the protagonist, when Edgar has them both countered, Anna awakened her sainthood and help the protagonist in the nick of time.

"Right off the bat, the childhood heroine has this much of cheats. God dammit, the "main character" plot armor is strong. No wonder so many critics criticized the plot for being so wish fulfilling. At least the situation wasn't too out of hand for the time being."

It was when Edgar decided to assault Anna directly that Roy, the protagonist, manage to slip through the guards and stop Edgar before the deem is fully done. Thankfully he took control before any thing happened that can trigger the plot.

"Frederick! Frederick! Come, I need you!"

That middle age butler soon appeared in front of him.

"Milord, how may I assist you?"

"Frederick, answer me truthfully, regarding my reputation how bad it is?"

"How bad it is? Well I think that too nice of a way to put it. In the capital, your notoriety is well documented. You will eat without paying, take things by force, bully weaker nobles and commoners, also known to all ladies as a dangerous predator who prey on any female that remotely pretty. All in all, a debauchee in its finest."

"..."

"Although your frame is rotten to the core in the capital, here, thankfully merely existed some part as rumors. But I think it will soon be the same soon."

(That right, I remember now. Edgar, he actually had enough guts to harass the imperial princess. Her status is high even in the imperial family due the fact that she is the sole daughter of the emperor. The emperor treasure her like nothing else could be her equal. Sophie Von Bismarck, the second heroine that was introduced. A kind, smart and cheerful princess that is beloved by all citizens of this nation. But once she fell for the protagonist, she willingly betrayed her family and home.)

One could imagine the wrath of the emperor once he caught the wind of this. Edgar being the sole son of his father, Herman Von Valvford, the prime minister is probably why he is still alive and only being sent here as a punishment. Sent to this distant remote area of the empire as its governor.

(Sigh, this bastard just never learn does he?")

Edgar curse the previous owner of this body for being so incompetent.

(Damn, he deserves everything that came for him. But don't drag me into it, I am not him, I am innocent!)

"Bring me to that old man."

"As you wish."

Frederick soon led him to the room where Anna's father is kept.

"You can leave now."

Frederick bow and walk away.

(Knock knock)

"Ahem, hello, this is Edgar Von Valvford. May I speak with you?"

He walked in and saw a man in the middle of the room. Brown hair with some grey, his clothing has many patches but the cares in sewing them can be seem. Though he is quite old, one can see that in his youth he is quite a handsome man.

That old man immediately approach him.

"Lord Edgar! Please don't hurt Anna! She is my only child, I lost my wife already so please I can't bear see anything happened to her! You can do anything to me, I am begging you, please release her!"

He grab on him also while crying pleading on his daughter behalf. It can be seem that this father and daughter pair has a deep relationship.

(What do you mean by that last part? Who will want a old man like you?)

"Ahem, ahem, I afraid there been some misunderstanding on your part. I am not doing anything to Anna. I am just looking to hire a cook and a maid."
