In the end - Malcolm headed to Marquis territory without any excuses from Norman and still unable to move. It is also confirmed that a letter from Norman was sent. If the fraud is confirmed, it will probably also be seized over there to become evidence.

"What... what...? What are you talking about?

"Chi, Father..."

"Yes, sir! Please calm down!

"Shut up, shut up!

The Marquis' banquet seat was opened as planned.

It seems that if you open the lid, the invitees will not come at all. It was up to the Marquis, finally, to have a seizure, that he could no longer stand the invitees who never came and the halls of the idle mansion.

No, I'm also the one who does the banquet seats as planned under this situation. Maybe there's no reason to go around handing out invitations in a big way and not open a feast seat more than getting King Melvin's consideration.

And this situation... was somewhat predictable, but subtracting it seems to have caused a lot of damage to the Marquis.

There have been rumors before that the Marquis will not waver. Dinner parties, even when we have a ball, all we get together is small things. It was fatal that the story of inspections coming in was spread as reliable information where they were said to be falling apart due to a decline in influence.

On that occasion, the conversation proceeded in an ostensibly calm fashion, but the muttering people rumored to each other that the Marquis was okay. Naturally.

Malcolm's report suggests that attending the Marquis' banquet table or something at this time is suspicious of getting along with the Marquis, and the distant consequence of buying Royal Unhappiness and extra firepowder flying in is this tragic situation.

Speaking of which, I'm certainly not in attendance. I can't even do that.

Because of that Marquis, I was somewhat anxious to say that I would normalize my succession due to some mistake, so I was just sending Cadkeus to see how things were going, just in case. Apparently, for this matter, the successors have had previous problems.

"If you don't do a clever imitation!

When the Marquis puts himself up on the shelf and stretches Norman's cheek, Norman also yells bright red in his face.

"Don't be silly! If I declare honestly, you're going to use it all!

"Are you gonna tell me you did the right thing!? What the hell did you do for your territory with the money you made by mistake!?

I suppose the answer would be, "I fattened my stomach if I were told what I did." Norman is stuck in words for a moment after being poked through a painful spot, and then flies a corner bubble and calls it out as if it had reopened.

"Ugh, shut up! You're gonna be my money anyway! What's wrong with using it just like you!?

"What are you doing? Saying it's the same way because it's missing something to say!? How important is connectivity in Termwilds to this country -"

"How invisible are you!

"You, what was that attitude toward your father earlier!?

... Both of them, that was a lousy statement. At the end of the day, the marquis, who turned bright red in his face and turned upside down, grabbed Norman and joined him. Roll every table with extra momentum...... two of us were in a hurry to get the dish over our heads and the servants were in a stop and pulling the two apart.

... It doesn't look like we need to monitor any more. I just decided to let Cadkeus pull up. I let him escape the mansion, let him take a crow look in the shade of a tree, and then cut the five-sense link where he made him fly off.

Then I gently shake the first time and kick the sight I just saw out of my head. Clearly, it was a sight to behold. That's why I don't want to scout the Marquis. I'm more mentally tired for some reason.

A large crow stays in the window after losing it. When the bird's shape melted and collapsed, a black shadow came in through the window gap, accumulating on the floor once before taking the shape of a black cat.

Grace, who had embroidered until then, asks if he realizes that Cadkeus has finished his work there because of his return.

"What was going on with the Marquis?

"... I don't think there seems to be a problem"

Pick a few words and tell Grace and the others. I don't think I want to talk to them about the Marquis and Norman.

This sight is very peaceful. There is a difference between heaven and hell. Ashley has a quiet eye for school building textbooks, and Sheila is brushing Lavine. Don't calm down with a calm tune while Illumhilt plays too.

"Even the Bandit Guild is getting word around that we shouldn't get too involved with the Marquis"

"I mean, even in the private sector, right? I wonder if the merchants are turning that way."

To Sheila's words, Illumhilt tilted his neck.

"I guess. Because merchants are the most sensitive to rumors like that."

"But Sir Malcolm seems to have a tough time after this."

Ashley clouded her expression slightly. She has recently been able to interact with Kennel on a telecom machine, so she's also actually discussing territorial management policies in the wake of reports, etc. So I guess one thing about Malcolm is never another HR for her.

That said, Baron Sirn's territory is in order itself. From the Marquis to the Baron, a lateral connection is created in that area, so as Ashley, it is increasingly a stone.

"I know it's tough, but to a certain extent, we can expect the cooperation of His Majesty and his father."

"I'll work with you then."

Ashley puts her hand on her chest and smiles. The streets also lead to Ashley's territory. The part of the Marquis convoy that is also involved as Ashley, such as the preferential treatment when passing through the territory, is significant.

"Whatever, this brightens Marquis' neglect and Norman's injustice if the report from Malcolm returns. So King Melvin told me that Shafa had settled a case."

Malcolm himself becoming an accuser makes it easier to issue a verdict of affection against Malcolm. This doesn't mean you look anything sweet.

Marquis territory has the advantage of leaving it to Malcolm to make post-processing easier. There is also the treatment of ministerial groups, so it is easier for people who are blood relatives to govern well afterwards. The royal family also has more influence over the people, so perhaps it should be welcomed.

When it comes to ex-post processing, it still seems harder in the South.

It is the second son of Grand Duke Debonis, the flesh and blood of the First Queen, who will govern the new South. I'm guessing this person is King Melvin's cousin and the uncle of King Prince and Roy.

The Verdogal royal family is a country with strong royalty because of the border labyrinth... The story changes when top nobles, such as the Grand Duke and the Duke, who are also royal relatives, become opponents. There seems to be a lot of difficulty in having a power relationship.

When I say that, I'm practically like a royal cousin too... but we're peaceful things.

Mallane, speaking, is tired of practicing too much saucer, wrapped in a blanket on the couch and resting. Originally, a witch sometimes offers a day of prayer, so the focus is extraordinary. Thanks to that, it improves quickly.

"Mmm..."

Gently stroke your fingers through Mallane's hair. What dreams she was having, she smiled and leaked a small, adorable voice. Serafina also fits in Mallane's arms. Was it cozy in the blanket? She's resting too... but the house fairy seems like something to sleep in if it's cozy too.

Grace and Ashley chuckle at the smiling appearance of Mallane and Serafina like that.

"Dear Mallane, I'm glad your throat has healed"

"I couldn't even speak like this before."

Ashley also narrows her eyes and strokes Mallane's hair.

"... the Marquis seems to have settled down, and is it a labyrinth again from tomorrow?

"Right. We have to check the location of the sealed door."

...... I'm heavily tempted to think of it as an attack on Great Decay Lake...... We need to get used to the environment and the battle a little over there in order not to be hassled on the day the sealed door is released.

But since we have air combat gear, is it better than normal exploration? We also have the equipment to combat the Great Decay Lake well prepared for members.

"Well... no labyrinth stories today"

I just kicked the Marquis family disturbance out of my head because of it, and if I was thinking about the Great Decay Lake, would I say Ami the original tree?

"Right. Get some rest today and prepare for tomorrow's exploration."

Grace seemed to have guessed something from my words, smiling softly and nodding.
