From a terminal Soldier to Monarch

< 147 Coins, Knives, Tongues, Poison and Slash (5) >

“The prince just left. ”

“No, what are you going to do about it if you say there are no sanctions on the salt mines, other than taxes? ”

Baron Savenad looked around at the unsightly and powerless nobleman of the Minority.

‘Like bugs. ’

Inside, there were nobles who had only a name, and those who had small capsules.

“You can tell by the work of Earl Vantes. He's young, but he's got a dozen worms in him. ”

At the top of a large, long wooden table, gazes were gathered. Baron Savannah sat with his head held high and looked around the crowd. His sharp gazes shut their mouths.

Baron Savannah looks closely into the progress of Chris' dealings with Earl Ventes.

He couldn't get over the idea that Chris' handiwork was buried in his superpower.

‘I knew I could be beaten. ’

Baron Savannah was also a man who stood here by the waterway, beyond what the nobles were good at fighting for.

No, it was right to say that he is who he is because he did not obstruct any vile means. And Baron Savannah was not ashamed of it.

‘It is natural for those who have to win. ’

Stealing what I wanted was a basic human desire.

“Did you trust me to give you a letter saying he was right? ”

The baron asked me to be gentle with the other nobles. After all, these were his shield and his companions.

They were just as stupid as they were, and they were just as greedy as they were.

‘The prince would not have gone away so easily. ’

Chris must have been up to something, but he didn't know what it was.

‘There is no need to know. ’

If the blade doesn't work, the tongue doesn't work either.

“So what do we do now? ”

Baron Stuart opens his mouth. He used to be a nobleman who was a knight, but now he was just eating back and forth with a tax from a small bonnet, and he complained that he would not normally accept his service at the royal palace.

Baron Savenad opens his mouth with a soft smile and his clasped hands on one knee.

“We were on the same boat. Isn't that right?”

The letter to the Royal Road was sent in the name of Baron Stuart. The host is Vin Savenad, but he's never been on the front page.

If Baron Freund walks into a territorial war, Baron Stuart should return the territory peacefully. He didn't have the strength to bear one vice knight.

“Didn't everyone agree to get a salt mine and share wealth in common?" ”

Baron Stuart, in a hurry, said.

“That's right.”

“We were on the same boat. ”

“Even if I don't have a little bit of vomit, I think I have a little bit of loyalty. ”

The last nobleman who spoke was Earl Ludwig's pretender. He was involved in a few gold coins. He had a very light butt to put in his mouth, but Sabenad said in his words with a grin on his palm.

“That's right. We were on the same boat. So I will tell you everything. I intend to wage a territorial war against Baron Fraunmut. ”

The other nobles seem to have suddenly frozen cold. Except for a few, it suddenly hardened like a statue.

Baron Stuart barely regained his senses, muttering.

“Baron Fraunmund is a war hero and vice knight. ”

“Gerald.”

The young man, who was on the edge of the table when Baron Savenad called, stood up and took a cup of tea in front of him.

He holds it up and touches the sword on his waist.

Skunk!

A flash flashes up from below, and a tea cup cut in two pieces is rounded over a thick rug.

“I'm ashamed, but he's my son. And vice knight. ”

The nobles, surprised by what happened suddenly, look back at the tea cups that had fallen from Gerald.

“If you take on Baron Fraunmut's few forces with the barbaric southerner, my hand will lay waste to his lands. ”

Baron Savannah said calmly, but the content was not light. The eyes of the nobles who could say that they were the best at taking their share.

“What would you do with your excuses? ”

One of them asked.

“Haha, did you really believe that Earl Vantes committed treason? ”

The principle of 'what the winner says is the truth’ has not changed.

“But I've heard that the southern woman has few troops. ”

When Baron Stuart spoke, another man stepped out this time. Stuart looked closely and his face looked familiar.

Recently, there have been frequent purchases of noble status in Sergado for money, and he was one of them. Rumor has it that Darwin was originally an assassin by the name of Birkhoff.

“I have something prepared for you. ”

Baron laughs and speaks, slowly getting up from his seat.

“I may not have anything, but I have a small gift. They can tie up some of their troops with that skill. ”

He puts his hands on the table. I can see his fingertips glowing green.

“Baron Darwin rarely handles poison. ”

The baron Sabenad's words darken the eyes of the other nobles. You can get something called poison, but it's hard to handle.

Rumor has it that Vice Knight is also poison-resistant. In fact, the crazy poison, not the rumors, was actually curative.

“I'm not going to do anything to them with the poison that we can save on the market. I'm just gonna make some of my troops feel sick to their stomach. This is part of the strategy. ”

“Ah, excellent. ”

A nobleman praises him.

‘Idiots.’

Baron Savannah could always tell that they were trying to leave. But I didn't have the slightest intention of leaving it alone, so I bound them.

“If this gets out, I can't help but blame your mouths for this shortage. ”

Baron Savannah said. It was neither a threat nor a threat, but it was more effective At the entrance of the room, Gerald stood indifferently.

“I hope you're all careful what you say. ”

It was a shame there was no Dutch birch here.

‘It would have been easy if I had just dragged him in. ’

However, Baron Dutch has severed all contact with Baron Fraunmund since he was on his side.

“Then I expect you all to prepare yourselves on your own turf. ”

The baron says the nobles know, and then they get up and scatter.

It was going to be a massive territorial war. Even though Baron Savannah's troops were not great and he was defeated, even if he cursed, more than ten nobles combined in power would make him a large force.

There.

“We're ready. ”

There was Darwin's poison.

“Who?”

“He's ready, too. ”

“Thank you. ”

The last remnant of the nobles in front of you. You poison only a fraction of your troops?

What a stupid idea. The baron was going to poison Chris and everyone else.

“You're a trickster. ”

Of course, this was not the end. I felt like I was pressing down on someone and the pressure filled the room. After the nobles left, the man came in and stood next to Gerald. He blames Gerald for not even checking in.

“Have you seen it?”

Gerald was in a state of panic. I told her to cool her head whenever she wanted, but she did. However, soon the baron could understand his son.

The opponent is a knight, Weiss Knight, and one of the cards in the spleen.

“It's not a black swing. I didn't teach you to do that. ”

“I'm sorry."

The son bows his head deeply.

His name is published Edstein.

A knight with the famous vice knights known as Lydos Ben, sworn to fight a powerful opponent.

The Duke brought a man who was originally called a dead man in the mercenary system.

The duc pushed Baron Savenade thoroughly. It was like trying to defeat a guy named Chris Fraunmoont.

Nevertheless, the baron was filled with anxiety, even though he was so thoroughly prepared.

‘Poisoned and immediately entered the territorial war as an excuse to take all of them. ’

He has never turned away from the intuition that has given him confidence.

“Let's talk. ”

The announcement didn't even greet him. No, I didn't even look back. Baron Sabenad leaves the room without even a scratch.

‘See you later. ’

The knight ignores himself.

‘I'll tell you, my tongue is more poisonous than I can do with a sword. ’

Savannah prepared another move, because she had prepared the poison and was nervous even with the vice knights.

He heads to his own library. The baron usually buys their information by paying the Information Guild quite a lot of money.

And recently, the Guild has given itself useful information.

‘I've never seen anyone do anything that clean in this area. ’

Three screwed-up assassins can solve things on their own.

There was no way I wouldn't be interested. The disadvantage is that you need to pay half of the quest fee upfront and demand a large amount to reach the small merchant guild's half-year earnings.

“Well done. ”

The baron raises his head. Through the sunset light coming in through the window, you see a person with a curved body.

He didn't cover his face or hide his appearance. He asked me if I could just show him my face.

“Appearance is remembered for a few characteristics. I could be someone the baron doesn't remember tomorrow. ”

He replied.

I really liked the baron. Especially the way she handles things.

I've already left a few things to do. She handled things neatly.

“Here.”

What the baron wanted this time was the hair of a woman named Alice, Chris' squire.

She holds a handful of blonde hair in her hand. The baron knew she was telling the truth.

She already knows that Alice's hair has gotten shorter through the spy, and that's exactly how long it is in her hands.

“She was vice knight. ”

The assassin even gave you more information. The baron opens his mouth again, calculating the remaining quest fee.

“I'll give you a platinum eagle. ”

Platinum, worth a hundred gold coins. It was also more than a year's worth of small merchants' money. The assassin replied because it was obvious it was a request.

“You want me to kill a royal? ”

“No way. ”

“Really?"

“All I want is one life. ”

“Tell me your name and where you live. ”

“Fraunmoont Territory is where he lives, and his name is Chris Fraunmoont. In two days, let no one know. ”

“You want me to kill Weiss Knight? ”

“Impossible?”

“No.”

Rachel pauses, recalling what her master told her to do, and then says,

“But not a single coin of platinum. You have to give me at least three. ”

The baron bites his molars tightly.

That's a lot of money to pay for running the territory.

‘As long as you take the salt mine. ’

After that, you can kill all the nobles involved in the work and take their place.

We have to pay taxes to the fishermen, but the calculations show that we can still benefit greatly.

It was a nature full of jealousy and greed, but the baron did not turn away from himself.

“Quest fee.”

The baron moves with Rachel's haste. The baron picks out the key he was hanging from a necklace and opens his study drawer.

“I didn't know it would be used here, just in case. ”

He opens the drawer and takes out a large sapphire. It was beautifully polished, so it was a brooch that anyone could once look around.

“This will cost you half the commission. ”

“I'm sure you do.”

Rachel takes the sapphire and walks out the window. The baron looks out the window, and her figure disappears.

‘It's really haunted. ’

Then the baron was relieved. If not with a sword and tongue, then with poison and slander. If you ever put your sword back in there.

‘I won this fight. Baron Fraunmund.'

He was convinced of victory.

* * *

Two days ago.

“Hey, Alice. ”

“Why?"

There were only two people who spoke against me when there was no one around. One was Alice and one was Lynd.

I didn't stop Alice because I had a good look at her title or undisciplined attitude.

“Give me a haircut. ”

Her short hair was a little long.

“It was time to go to sleep. ”

She stared at me.

“Is this a hobby? What are you doing alone? ”

“I have something I need. ”

“No underwear, no hair. Tsk, tsk.”

Alice kicks her tongue.

“Hey, no. ”

I could have explained everything I did and everything that was going on to convince her.

Only, she didn't want to hear it.

“If you fight me. ”

Orloth only wants to fight. I took her word for a complicated reason.

“Coming!”

After hanging out, I got her hair, put it in my room, had dinner, washed it, and came back, and suddenly I had no hair.

“You're diligent. ”

I didn't have to spend a few days like that.

“Today we call chopped beef grilled in a circle and then sandwiched between buns. ”

Lydia explained cooking for my pleasure.

“How did this cook get here? ”

“I don't know the details, but they said they were in a hurry to find a job because they needed money. ”

“Very dissolved. I'll give you the award for hiring a chef. ”

“When the crowds came, they told me they came in person."

A man's got to live with that. You pay no taxes and take good care of your territory. It's full of good stuff! It's filled with delicious food!

As much as I cook, I also like great food. A tender, chopped beef patty to the mouth.

You put it between the buns? Oh, I'll be damned if I think about it.

“A textured dish made with tomatoes and vegetables. ”

“Give it to me! ”

As I recall, this dish is one of those foods that Teggis can't even enjoy. Is this chef really capable?

I tried not to sit at a table and choke on food until I was ten.

I need to break that seal for a while today. The chef, Doug, today's tech, and most of the people in Grafe, Lynd, Digo and Jen Reed have gathered.

It was crowded at the large dining table.

I allowed them to eat here whenever they wanted.

They weren't the ones who wouldn't let me. It's good to look like a lord who gives you a big permit to eat.

“Hey, don't compete with what you eat. Taste it.”

You warn Digo and Jenryd. This is not blasphemy. Those bastards just ate so much, sometimes I don't even have enough to eat.

Glug.

Soon the acolyte cooked. My heart full of excitement and anticipation, what to do.

However, I was the lord, and a plate of bread and meat patties were placed in front of me first, with warm steaming sand on top.

“Of course.”

Dining etiquette is usually a good idea when all the food is ready, but I don't know.

Since when have you been so polite?

"Tsk."

Alice saw it and kicked her tongue out. No, you were a civilian inn girl. Why are you doing this to me?

It's been a long time since Royse's sister Agatha Yul Novan smiled at me.

Oh, come on, I get it. Just one bite.

Enemies.

It was a moment when the sweet aroma pierced my nose and I could feel the ripe meat.

“Tsk."

As soon as I chewed a bite, I spit out the dish. Yenrich said he saw it.

“Too bad.”

The same dishes were going up on everyone else's plates.

“Stop.”

As I spoke, I put my hand in my chest, took out a few pieces of herbs, crushed them with my bare hands, and made some juice and poured it into my mouth.

Everyone knew what was going on.

“Because you want to eat alone? ”

Jelly raises questions.

‘What the fuck is he looking at? ’

“Poison.”

After a march of herbal juice, Tequila, who was just about to drink the wine, chops it into the ground.

“Get the chef now. ”

As Grafe spoke, the people at the table began to move. My tongue still froze.

At the same time, I was irritated.

‘No, why not? ’

Cooking and shit that you don't usually get to eat.

Also, I laughed at the man who poisoned himself.

‘What a jerk. ’

Poison. Herbs and poison were my specialty.
