Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 72. Pre-Processing (2)

A saggy, blue hair.

A jewel-like red-eye. The protagonist of the sudden contact was Isha. She gives you a hard, straightforward headline that scares you to find Ferda.

Mr. Home Teacher, where are you?

“Northern cemetery. Is something wrong? ”

I asked him that because there was no reason to contact him suddenly.

Isha nods and replies.

Please come to the annex. The Lord will see you.

“The truth is me? Why?”

Robert, and didn't you have dinner with Korut?

Curiously, I tilted my head, and soon the answer came back.

I was supposed to have dinner with the Three Princes and the next chieftain of the Desert Tribe today, because the Lord asked me to have dinner with the Home Teacher.

I thought I'd stepped forward, but I didn't think I'd forgotten to tell you. I smiled unconsciously.

Anyway, please come quickly. Food's cold.

“Got it. I'll be right there. ”

I nodded my head and got up from my seat.

The cemetery and annex are only a few minutes away. Suddenly, when Ferda gets up from her seat and tries to turn, the starfish Radina stands in front of her.

[Uncle, are you going to see Prince Charming?]

“Yes, I was invited to dinner. ”

[So they're gonna lock Radina up with them?]

He's probably bored since he's been in the cemetery lately.

Ferda smiles and nods happily.

“Yes, let's go together. ”

[Heehee, yes!]

With Radina's bright smile.

They set out for the annex.

* * *

The way to the annex was very dark.

It was because Ferda had removed all the lanterns in the past when she hated the light. Also, there was no problem because both eyes were bright at night.

Most of all, there was something good about being dark.

[Wow! There are so many stars.]

Radina, riding her horse, glitters.

Like he said, the stars are very visible because of the dark surroundings.

But unlike Radina, who had two eyes full of starlight, Ferda was not looking at the stars. Just staring into the dark, deep thoughts.

‘In reality, I am now in the ranks of the elite nobles. ’

He didn't officially inherit the Earldom, but even though he was called a nobleman, it was not strange. Even the Southern and Eastern peoples thought they were Earls from the beginning.

‘Not just the fame, but the power has grown well. ’

The dysplasia was widespread across the kingdom.

Moreover, as it turned out that the one-horned Swordsman, Meshed Ohm, was a real knight, the fame grew even greater. But it wasn't just the fame that called him a nobleman.

Count Dylan, who turned Hark and his family into the land of the dead.

Furthermore, the southern arcade houses 20,000 desert tribes. The breadth of the territory, the number of people, and the enormous military force.

This wasn't the end.

In fact, he also had a friendly relationship with the horse tower.

It was one of the seven towers, and Earl Keshmif, the owner of the tower, was also a follower of the realm. Duke Setier also plays a role as a patron of the realm.

‘It's weird not to get noticed at this point. ’

Ferda smiles in relief.

In antiquity, it even said he was the next Duke of Setier.

I've been in constant contact with Sarphene since the second disaster was averted. I will reward you for defending the Kingdom, so I told you to come to the capital as soon as possible.

‘I was very anxious. ’

It's been a long day in a row.

In the meantime, Prince Charming also sent a love call to Silvan. As the damage to the north and west became more severe, he later recognized the importance of practice.

But Ferda had no intention of standing up for the two princes.

‘Maybe if it flowed similar to the previous round. ’

Things have changed a lot now. Ferda's plot was successful, and her mood greatly deteriorated. Even though Sarphene is intimate with the Holy Nation, she will not receive the help of the Holy Nation in this situation.

If I did, I'd lose my mind.

‘You don't have to bow to anyone anymore. ’

In fact, he's qualified enough.

Ferda and Radina arrived at their destination one day as they made step-by-step plans for future walks of life. A rather shabby annex. Through the familiar door, the two arriving on the third floor open wide.

Yuck!

Immediately, I saw a table with food and attendees.

It was Silvane, Robert, and Korut. Isha, who had just contacted me, did not see where she had gone.

Meanwhile, the fact that he saw Ferda greeted him with a smile.

“Welcome, Ferda. Oh, Radina's here, too, huh? ”

[Yes, because I saw Prince Shepherd.]

Radina, who escaped from Ferda, embraced the cold reality in her arms.

After a brief greeting, dinner began. Menu was quite small. I could hardly see my favorite meatloaf, and it was fairly small.

And by the time the feast was over, there was a reason.

When I took a sip of hot tea coming out of the dessert, Korut raised his head.

“The talking back is not sexual, so let me get this straight. ”

I speak a fairly natural royal language compared to before.

Maybe he stayed south and studied separately. The moment I glanced at the appearance of a different Korut, Korut's words continued.

“As I said three days ago, it's impossible to get to the desert right now. ”

That said, Ferda knew the topic of today's meeting right away.

As you can see by the humble menu on the table, the Earl was currently suffering from a considerable food shortage. Hark and Birch food were used to maximize the fame of the realm.

Of course, there was plenty of food in Dylan's stockpile, but this alone was inexorable. Because not only did the erl have 20,000 tribes of deserts with them.

So Robert urged Korut to be jealous. Now that the threat is gone, why don't we go back to the desert?

But Korut insisted. If you go back to the desert without food, it won't do you any good. It would be better to go back from winter near the border, even if there is a hunger.

“Phew, but this is hard, too. We're running out of food right now.If we add more Desert Tribes, we might not be able to make it to the next month. ”

Robert was right.

In simple calculations, the full moon was the limit. Meanwhile, the reality of listening to the two conversations flashed as if he had remembered something.

“Why don't we cut down on rations? ”

“Well, it's going to be difficult. ”

“That's right. We still only distribute it once a day. ”

It also distributes only enough to not starve to death.

Is that what this is about? I have also heard that there are no grassroots left near the border. When the opinion was dissolved, the reality was silent. Then Robert came up with an idea.

“What do you think of hunting monsters? ”

“Monsters? ”

“Yes, hunt large monsters or wild monsters, and use them as food to survive a little longer, right? ”

It might sound reasonable at first glance.

But it was a good idea to be angry in the greenhouse. Korut and realm shook their heads almost simultaneously.

“I can't. No matter how much I think about it, it's not efficient. ”

“That's right. And there are a lot of people who can't eat. ”

Above all, there were fewer monsters near the border than I expected.

Robert slumps his shoulders in mutiny. Shortly after, Korut, who was rethinking his thoughts, gave his opinion.

“How do you get help from the royal family? Then it's obvious. ”

“If things were worse than us, it wouldn't be good. ”

Robert cuts the horse like a knife.

Since then, the three continued to comment, but rarely the opinion to say this. Meanwhile, Ferda takes a step back and watches.

At that time, I suddenly felt someone's gaze.

In reality, he talks to the other two, but in practice, he is constantly cleansed. Like asking for help. And it wasn't the only thing that caught my eye.

Robert and Korut were the same.

Ferda bursts into laughter.

‘This one or that one. ’

He probably thought Ferda would have a good opinion.

Otherwise, there was a solution to the problem. No, bear in the first place was a simple problem. I wonder why no one's talking this way out of their mouth.

‘Shall we establish a real face here? ’

Ferda clears her mind and turns her head. Immediately, I opened my lips as soon as my eyes met reality. Then the silent murmur continued through the shape of the mouth.

Meanwhile, the reality of seeing this opened my eyes wide.

After a while, he shouts as if he remembered something he had forgotten.

“Ah! If that's the way it's going to be! ”

“Hmm? Do you have any good ideas? ”

“Can you tell us? ”

Could it be a violent reaction? Robert and Korut were interested.

In fact, he began to talk based on the words he had heard from Ferda.

It was the word "Senek Forest."

The Senek Forest, also home to the realm, was vast enough to be compared to the chaotic dictatorship. And resources were abundant, as humans had not been able to reach them for hundreds of years.

Just enough grass and fruits to make it winter.

Not only that. A great river flows through the Sernerk Forest. There were a lot of fish species to eat here. If we can make good use of it, we will be able to winter without being hungry.

Meanwhile, by the time the real story ends,

Korut and Robert's eyes sparkle with hope.

“I'll gather the tribal warriors right away! ”

“I cooperate. Gather as much food as you can before winter comes. ”

Using the Sernerk Forest's resources, you are directed to solve the food shortage. Shortly after, they left the room, and the reality was that they sighed deeply.

“· · · · · · · Phew, it was hard. ”

Relief was felt on my face when I was exhausted.

It seems that this has been a very difficult problem for a while.

“Thank you. It's all thanks to Ferda. ”

He turns his head and smiles.

A smile of solid faith and gratitude. Facing this, Ferda brings out the question she had heard earlier.

“But in fact, ”

“Huh?"

“Why didn't you just mention the Serenek Forest? ”

In fact, he knows more about the Senek Forest than anyone else. It's where I was born. It's where I spent the last 10 years. Of course, you knew that food resources were abundant.

“Oh, that's what I mean. ”

Meanwhile, when I heard the question, I looked embarrassed for a moment.

After a while, he hesitates for a while, either ashamed or reddened his ears. Then I gave him an answer I didn't think of.

“I just don't think they're helping. ”

“· · · · · · · · What? ”

“That's right. I've never been very helpful. ”

You're absolutely right. At least the Sernerks were less than worthy of their enemies. Perhaps you don't expect much from the Sernerks themselves, and you don't even remember the Sernerk Forest.

In response, Ferda burst out a smile without even knowing it.

Then something came to mind.

‘Oh, by the way. ’

The Sernerks remind me of Irina Sernerk.

Before the second disaster began, she took Ferda's orders and headed for a land called the Wasteland to the west. The reason was simple, because the fifth author in the original was the only one who ever headed there.

‘It's about time we started reporting. ’

It has been almost two months since then.

But I still haven't heard from him. At this point, I also wondered what might have happened. It was then.

Knock, knock.

Someone knocks lightly on the door.

After a while, Isha revealed herself. She lowers her head slightly, straightforward.

“Joo-gun, you have a visitor. ”

“Customer? Who? ”

“You look like a Sernerk. She's the aunt of the lord. Do you know him? ”

As soon as she heard that, Ferda burst out a picnic smile.

There was only one person who had a real aunt.

“Yes, bring me. I just wanted to talk to you about something, which is great. ”

“Yes, I'll be right back. ”

Isha bows her head again and leaves the door closed.

Shortly thereafter, two sets of footsteps rang in the hallway. Soon, the door opened wide with a knock. It was Isha, who had just disappeared, and Serek, who I saw again in two months.
