I am the Monarch
< Chapter 22 Good People >
------------------------------------
In a short time, the world begins to change dramatically after two years or at least five years.
High powers such as royalty and royalty and nobles and subjects are competitively engaged in talent gathering.
There was no other reason.
It was just one of the ways to eat better and live better than others.
But that's when the age of war began.
‘As time goes on, forces with more power and economic power begin to appear than others. ’
It had nothing to do with whether the power was royal or noble.
The emergence of powerful forces inevitably led to competition and war.
Of course, there were several other major incidents and accidents.
With so many complicated situations, the world will finally face an era of war.
‘We need to find hidden talents, not the ones we've known in our past lives. ’
Why Roan came to think of this.
It was because of Clay, the one-eyed boy I met on Aran Street.
‘He was definitely an unusual man. ’
An incomprehensible clue left by him.
< Be careful if an owl bites a tree branch, there may be a big room in the statue. >
It's been two days since I met Clay, but I haven't seen a sparrow, let alone an owl.
"Isn't that the owl? ’
I thought I'd see Clay again, but somehow I couldn't find him anymore.
‘I've left it with the children at the Informatics Center, so they'll hear from me soon. ’
Roan strives to get rid of his grief and move on.
I was heading to Aran Street today as well.
At that moment, you hear a familiar voice behind you.
“Baron.”
As Roan turns to stop, you see Keefe approaching from afar.
Did you find it already? ’
No matter how good Kip and his informants were, this was faster than I thought.
“Baron, I have a report. ”
Meanwhile, when he arrived in front of Roan, he looked around and whispered in a small voice.
“Castle Mills is flowing our way. ”
“Hmm?"
Roan looks a little surprised that it wasn't the report he expected.
But then I hid my face.
Kip pulls a small piece of paper out of his arms.
Roan takes it and tucks it into his arms, then nods slightly.
“Well, I'll be going. ”
Keefe takes a short ritual and walks into the crowd.
Soon his back disappeared.
A quick encounter.
Roan picks up his senses sensitively and slowly moves.
The destination was no longer a narrow street.
He hides in the crowd naturally.
He was as good at killing the protagonist as he was at giving off momentum.
Actively leveraging Brandt's ring here, it fades even when it's right in front of you.
As Roan walked along the crowded streets, he entered a narrow alleyway with close shops and shops.
The alleyway was so dark that even the sun didn't reach it, but it didn't matter to Roan.
He stepped relentlessly down a complex alley several times before stopping at a very gruesome place.
Ugh.
When I took the paper out of my arms and spread it out, I could see the letters tightly.
< Janice Intelligence Group, an information organization that plays around Milr Castle, is unusual. >
The small paper was a kind of report.
I was Keefe who studied hard after working with the informant, but I noticed the wrong letters everywhere.
However, it was not at a level that was impossible to understand the content.
< They finally took the bait. >
Confident characters.
I smiled at Roan.
‘It took longer than I thought. ’
Bold eyes and expressions.
In fact, it was all planned for Keefe and the Amaranth Intelligence Force members to make a ruckus around Castle Mill.
‘We need to lay the foundation in Mill Castle. ’
Roan was going to assemble intelligence groups that were working around Castle Mill.
One part of that plan stimulates the Janice Informants.
You're planning to harm me and the informant? ’
Keefe and his informants were able to keep track of all of Janice's movements.
However.
< What kind of plans are you working on right now? >
It was unclear how Janice Intelligence tried to hack it.
But Roan trusted Keefe and his informants.
‘Reveal yourself. ’
It was time to focus on something else.
‘There should be a watcher around by now. ’
The possibility was sufficient.
Roan folds the paper and tucks it into his arms, then gives a strange look.
Let's have a look. ’
He leaves the alley and heads back to Aran Street.
At the entrance to Aran Street, there were a lot of people.
It's almost impossible for an ordinary person to find the Watchers among these many.
But there were tears in Roan's eyes.
Pa!
When I focused my gaze, I moved very slowly, as if the movement of people full of streets had stopped.
‘Hmm.'
Immediately, an enormous amount of visual information came pouring in.
My eyes burst in heat and the headache hit me.
Roan grips his teeth and looks around the streets.
At the same time, I moved to the right instead of the distance of walking.
Very slow and boring movements like yawning.
In the meantime, Roan doesn't miss a single glance at the people on the street.
Then.
There they are! ’
Roan's mouth rises as he looks up.
There were exactly four people with their eyes returning along their toes in a sudden turn.
Suddenly, they were middle-aged men with unusual faces.
They were focusing on each other, pretending not to know each other at all.
"Four people......."
The smile on my mouth became darker.
Joyful plans have passed through my mind.
‘That's a good number to play with. ’
Roan shakes his head and blinks.
The slow movers, as if they had stopped momentarily, returned to their original movements.
The noises that I heard, murmuring, turned into clear conversations.
Roan turns his base once and heads back to the distance.
On the other hand, four watchers make a slight glance at Roan.
Unfortunately, they didn't realize that they had been discovered.
* * *
“Nanny.”
“Yes, Princess. Tell me.”
Margaret stops what she was doing, smiling brightly.
When she saw that, she smiled faintly.
A perfect ending to the last few days of worries.
“I've decided. I'm going to invest in the Baron Tail. ”
“Princess.”
Margaret drops her cleaning kit and approaches Ailey.
“Although the Baron Tail is the most noted man these days, he has just become a nobleman. It doesn't seem like a good place to invest. ”
At that, she nods.
“That's just the way it is. ”
Margaret gives you a strange expression, terrified to the end of her speech.
“But you want to invest? You're not having second thoughts, are you? ”
So far, Alien's investment has been very cold and computational.
Thanks to you, there was not a single failure.
“A different heart? ”
She smiles shyly and asks again.
“Well, that's..."
Margaret is embarrassed and stutters.
She shakes her head, smiling.
“I'm investing in the future value of Baron Tail. ”
“Future value? ”
“Yes.”
She nods slowly and speaks backwards.
“Baron Tail is definitely going to be big. Baron Tail will also be a much bigger and better territory than he is now. That's for damn sure. ”
Her gaze rests on Margaret's eyes.
“By then, it'll be too late to invest. It's time to invest. When no one's invested yet, they're doing it faster than anyone. ”
I changed my face to a face that was always soft and shy.
“Hmmm. If the princess says so, that's soon to be true. ”
I've never been wrong about her people.
Margaret was only worried about one thing.
"I hope you didn't use clicks in between." ’
I was worried that the stranger feeling I'd never felt since she was born had blindfolded me.
But even Margaret's worries were already noticed by Alien.
‘Nanny, don't worry too much. ’
She smiled internally.
‘My eyes are more accurate and clear than ever. ’
It was the first time I was so sure.
Aelee's sheep balls are red.
‘He's special. ’
I didn't know what was special, but I felt that way.
Like.
‘Like him.’

The streets of Aran were getting attention, not when.
It was all because of Roan.
It was because some nobles were jealous of Roan robbing the streets of Aran and Lot Thousand and supporting the people of Mill for their support of drinking water and food.
Thanks to this, Aran Street people have enjoyed a blessing they have never experienced before.
At this point, Roan decided to withdraw Amaranth's troops leaving only a handful of intelligence on Aran Street.
It was their judgment that their work was done.
As they tried to clean up their temporary lodgings and leave, Aran Street gathered one by one.
Even when Ronan and Amaranth's troops first visited, the vigilant ones are now unhesitantly approaching and holding hands.
“Baron Tail. And now, my fellow Armanders, Thank you so much."
“Thank you."
“Thank you very much. ”
The crowd bows to Roan and Amaranth's men.
“Glad you could help. ”
The Roan and Amaranth troops quickly performed their rituals.
Majestic.
Aran Street's men have come out to the roads to escort Roan and Amaranth's troops.
Some of the citizens of Mill also cheered in the street.
‘Reliable.’
Support for the people of Aran Street and its people.
In a way, it seemed like a useless relationship, but this relationship is a huge asset to him in the future.
‘This is what I want. Everyone lives together. ’
Roan smiles at the sound of applause.
Feel confirmed that your actions have not been wrong.
Turning around, all of Amaranth's men were happy, too.
‘Even if it takes a little longer, we go our way. ’
Process was as important as the result.
Roan takes a deep breath.
I walked a little faster.
* * *
It took Cady longer than expected to issue a royal pass.
Simon was also busy building a foundation while meeting with the nobles.
Thanks to this, Roan was able to speed up his little negligent training.
Of course, he wasn't just training.
‘You've been peeking again. ’
Roan notices that the small bag he left under the tree is in a fine mess.
However, he turned his shoulders and settled on the ground, with no sign of concern at all.
‘Janice Intelligence guys. We don't even know that everything we've been looking at so far is fake information.......’
I kept smiling.
In the meantime, Roan acts as if he hasn't noticed the Janice Intelligence watchers.
It wasn't just that.
I created fake information with Keefe to deliberately disclose or falsely manage it
Each time, the watchers secretly check the fake information and report it to the headquarters of the Janice Informatics.
Fake verifiable information can sometimes be faked by Keefe and his informants to pretend to be real.
Thanks to this, Janis Intelligence's watchers now believe that all the information that Roan carelessly manages is true.
‘Then I'll go back to my training. ’
Several plans were going smoothly.
With a light heart, Roan rises from his seat and grabs Travis' spear.
Then.
“Baron!"
I heard Austin's voice.
He rushes in and takes a short ordinance.
“What's going on? ”
Austin took a breath and replied with a light question.
“A man from the writer Horton. ”
“Horton?”
Roan frowns.
It was a family that had no relationship at all and had no name.
Austin nods.
“Yes, I have an invitation. ”
“An invitation? What invitation? ”
Roan tilts his head.
“I think you should check that out for yourself. ”
In Austin's words, Roan kicks Travis' spear into his waist and takes a step.
"The writer Horton......."
I searched my memory, but nothing came to mind.
Eventually, I had to meet him in person.
Roan shakes his head and pushes forward.
As you pass the training ground and cross two buildings, you see a young man dressed in clean conquest.
“It's an honor to meet you. ”
The young man greeted him in a very respectful manner.
Courtesy of nobles.
He pulls out a short invitation from his arms.
“Prince Anthony Horton will be hosting a hunting competition. I hope Baron Tail will join us. ”
“Hmm.”
Hunting competition.
It was completely unexpected.
However, Roan smiled faintly and passed on the invitation.
Sleek invitations were finished with beads.
Then.
"Huh?
Roan's eyes tremble sharply.
His gaze stayed in the Beacon's pattern.
Usually, the symbol of the beacon was often a symbol or seal of the family sending the invitations.
Roan looks at the young man who handed over the invitation and asks in a soft voice.
“This beacon pattern is a bit unusual. ”
The young man smiled and replied.
“Yes, this is a symbol that Prince Horton prefers to use separately from the family crest. ”
“I see.”
Roan nods slowly.
His gaze returned to the peak.
My eyes sank calmly.
‘The crest of the beams.......’
My heart was pounding.
"A twig......."
Is it just a coincidence?
Clay's face comes to mind.
