The Goddess Made A Mistake Again

Bonaire sat on his desk and his face was ashen as he listened to the screams outside, "How did it get so far?"

"Get rid of Lazarus!"

He heard the protest again, ringing constantly in his brain and got up.

Going towards the window, he looked through it and sighed, "How could this have escalated so quickly?"

From Bonaire's view, he saw a few students standing in front of the council building. They were protesting while showing a few large boards with Lazarus's name cut off in red.

"Get rid of Lazarus!"

"Rid Off!"

"Rid Off!"

"A Murderer Lazarus!

"Murderer!"

"Murderer!"

"Get rid of Lazarus!"

"Rid of-"

Bonaire looked away as he thought of his friend, 'How could you do that Lazarus?"

A Week Ago…

"Mr. Wilson! How many times do I have to instruct you about your loud behavior?"

"Sorry, Longbottom sir! It won't happen again." Wilson apologized.

Longbottom sighed seeing the earnest apology, "You say that, but I know you'll forget it probably in the next minute."

Meanwhile I see something else that enlightens me. A few student were sneakily looking at me and murmuring about Lazarus.

They were talking about the mistreatment I got from Lazarus and how he got out of it without any repercussions. Seeing them I feel something roaming in my mind before it flashed.

'Shiiiiit… I just got a plan.'

I slap, Wilson's back, awakening him, "Thanks for the awesome idea, Wilson."

"Huh? Idea?" Wilson did not understand what I meant, "What are you talking about?"

I don't explain it to him, "And as a reward, I'll take you to my restaurant today and we'll eat meat."

"Meat!" Wilson said, he's eyes shining with light. But then they quickly left as he said, "How about instead of mea-"

"No orphanage today, I already gave them some money earlier, today it's all about meat."

Hearing that Henry already helped anyway, Wilson let meat pervade his mind.

"Hehe… since you say."

"But first can you do me a quick favor?"

"What?" Wilson asked.

…

We got out of the carriage and Wilson whistled in astonishment at the environment, "Woah! This is your restaurant, Henry? It's amazing!"

What other place I would suggest other than FOOD!

"Let's go!" I say and we get in.

While I ignored the two maid's introduction, Wilson didn't even care to give them a look.

Which was suspicious as hell to me… any guy would have jumped the gun and either smiled or blushed at them but he did neither.

'Now that I think about it… he never really showed interest in women back in the novel too. I always thought because he was a nice guy, but this is too suspicious.'

'Could it be that he plays in the othe-' I shake my head, getting rid of the thought.

I came here for an important job; I won't let a thought like that get in now.

"Welcome Milord." Noku greeted us, "I have already prepared a room for you."

She took us up and put us into a private room. Giving our orders, she left and I waited for a moment.

"Oh! Wilson, I forget something."

"What? Is it your wallet?"

"…no. It's not that." Even though he had an innocent look, sometimes it just angers me, "I have an important thing to do, so I can't eat right now."

"Alright then, let's go." Wilson said getting up.

"Let me finish first." I put him down, "I have a thing but it would only take a moment. So you order and eat until I come back."

"No, it's okay. I can go with you too. It's better to eat together than not." Wilson said, making it somewhat difficult for me.

"But we already ordered and I can't cancel it. Why don't you eat on ahead and let me go outside for a while?" I say, getting up, "I already put it on my tab so if I somehow take it too long then you can just go."

"Alright then, I'll wait for a while." Wilson said and I got out, only to find Noku standing guard.

"Sir, your other guest is here." She opened the door opposite to where Wilson was.

I get in and sit down as she closed the door.

"I heard you had something important to tell me." Ulvicor said, "Is it so important that you have to call me right after we had a meeting yesterday… this might increase in me getting caught."

"I already have an alibi; you just need to make sure yours stick true." I say and look at the empty table. "What happened? So scared that you didn't even order today."

He smiled, "No no, it's just I already ate yesterday, so thought it be better if I waite-"

"Knock!" "Knock!"

"Sir, your large blue crab that you ordered before has arrived." Came the voice of the waiter, standing outside.

I look back at Ulvicor as he smiled awkwardly, "Haha… you said you wanted to talk about something?"

…

"Hadt It e intderting kadi (That is an interesting idea), hugy go thik daht bud bork (do you think that would work?)" Ulvicor said as he ate the blue crab like he never ate anything so delicious before.

Looking at him like this, do I have trust in him?... no.

Will the plan work… I don't think so.

But will it work because I made the plan… Yeah, it will.

"You're gonna have to make sure that it works… otherwise, those crabs wouldn't just go in you and come out free of charge." I smile, "I'm gonna rip it out of the reputation that you and your family built so far."

"Cough" He drank water and stabilized himself and smiled, "Of course I'll do it. Have a bit of faith in me, Henry."

"Mr. Tax"

"Mr. Tax" He repeated back.

I give a long hard look at him before getting up, "Eat slowly, I don't need you dying at my restaurant."

"Thanks for worrying about me, see you later." He licked my boots even as I closed the door.

With three faced people like Ulvoric, you would have to double down and sometimes show who's the boss, otherwise it doesn't work.

Sliding open the door, I find Wilson watching the still hot large piece of meat in agony.

"Henry!"

Seeing me, his eyes turned into stars and he smiled greatly.

"What are you doing? Why haven't you touched the food yet?"

"Well, you weren't here so, I was feeling guilty about eating without you. But now that you are here and the meat's still hot, Let's Feast!" He said showing a cannibalistic smile and grabbing knifes in both hand.

'Wilson… you might be quite a stupid friend… but you're the nice friend that's extremely stupid.'

I smile, grabbing the appropriate spoons, "Eat all you want, I already ordered seconds!"

"YEAHHH!"

…

The Next Day

Wilson and I were running in the academy. After parting a bit last night and accidentally drinking some booze, we got up late in the morning to see we were late for class.

"Man, Mrs. Longbottom's going to scream at me again." Wilson said.

"Don't worry… with me by your side, I'll explain the situation to her."

"You will, thanks!" Wilson smiled, "Mrs. Longbottom always listens to you so she'll leave me alone this time."

'Of course, she would.'

I smile, thinking about that longbottom of hers that I tappe-

"Arghh! Help me, I'm going to die!"
