Those born into the Rutri family were known for their good appetites. With training that burned calories more than they ate, they were famous for not gaining weight easily.
Nadia Rutri was no exception. She was a woman who needed to eat five meals a day to be full.
‘Even isolated by zombies, she must not have been able to hold on for long.’
The Rutri Count’s residence was located in the central area of Dua[Dash]2, where nobles lived.
Given that their errand-running servants could get to a commercial area just by walking a little, their food storage would have contained only a small amount of food.
So, I could understand why Nadia Rutri had become so emaciated.
Seeing that only Nadia was in the mansion, it seemed the family had perished fighting zombies, and the servants had fled.
“What does it matter to you whether I starve…”
In the middle of her brusque reply, a resonant noise echoed throughout the basement.
Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
“….”
“….”
「Ah, from the sound alone, it’s like a general, isn’t it?」
“Pffft….”
Unable to hold back, Luus let out a slight chuckle, breaking the charm on Benedict’s prison cell.
“Cough.”
Mihael swallowed his laughter with a fake cough.
“… Was that noise from you?”
Nadia’s face, which had been rather fierce, flushed with embarrassment.
‘Her face is going to explode.’
“Sh, shut up!”
“True. Since it’s true, don’t get unnecessarily angry.”
“Hey!”
“If your ears aren’t blocked, then stop screaming.”
There’s a limit to how much you can indulge someone.
Displaying a bit of an intimidating aura made Nadia flinch.
“Yo, you guys are the ones who barged into my house.”
“We didn’t barge in.”
I corrected her misconception.
“Nadia Rutri. We came to rescue survivors.”
「Didn’t we come to find food?」
‘Two birds with one stone. Hey, you even gave a quest; why are you trying to team-kill?’
It was better to first present a noble purpose.
“…What?”
Nadia made a bewildered sound.
It wasn’t something Elizabeth Keaton would typically say.
Nadia looked at me with an expression that questioned whether her ears were malfunctioning.
“I didn’t know Elizabeth was also a hypocrite.”
“Do I look like I came here to play the virtuous lady?”
“….”
“Wake up. You already know what’s going on outside. Monsters that eat people, zombies. Knowing they’ve overrun the capital, why do you think I came here?”
I didn’t add that if she had stayed tucked in her mansion like Nadia, she would have been fine.
Even Nadia, who was simple-minded, would understand that.
She, after all, had given up and crawled into this basement due to starvation.
Her eyes, shaky from hunger and thirst, glanced between Mihael, Luus, and me.
“…Did you come here with Mihael and Lord Luus? How are both of you with…”
“It happened that way, but it’s not important. Besides, those two didn’t bring me here. I took the lead, and we decided to look for survivors together.”
“…….”
“We should start by finding food. Very passionately.”
“Be quiet. Can’t you see I’m trying to convince them seriously?”
Like it or not, Nadia Lutri was one of the few ‘living humans’ left in the capital.
“And although she’s simple-minded and has a bad temper, as the only daughter of the Lutri House with inherent strength, if her stats are excellent, she could become a good force.”
The Lutri House had a history of holding the position of general, without gender discrimination.
When Nadia, the only daughter of that house, debuted in high society, she lost weight due to dieting. Originally, she had been known as a strong girl, but that was mere rumor.
At least, that’s what she insisted.
Who knows what the info section might reveal.

Was her fragile appearance a fake?
I had thought she lost her senses and charged at me, but maybe she trusted her own strength.
“Wow, creepy.”
Thank God Michael intervened in time. Otherwise, it could have been disastrous. I’m not ready to walk the path to the netherworld yet.
“I’m sorry for the past, for preventing you from stepping foot in high society by framing you for my sins.”
“You…?”
In this place, at this timing, Nadia’s eyes widened at the apology she never expected to hear.
“But you tried to kill me too. Let’s consider our debts settled, forget the past, and escape this place together, shall we?”
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
