Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 11. New Territories (3)

“Got it. I'll teach you. Instead, if you give up in the middle, never come back. ”

“Yes! Okay! ”

Lycaen smiles meaningfully at the mouth of Senna, who gives a big nod. However, after clearing his face, he spoke to Anton and Yulia this time.

“Oh, there's one thing I didn't say, but I must learn that spear before I can join our knights. So you two will be training today. Do you understand?”

Anton and Julia felt their backs suddenly cooled. But it is also vague to say that you don't do it because of spear in the yard that you have already accepted.

“Yes, I understand. ”

The two of them responded loudly.

And the next day, the colonists were able to watch the Lord's daughter and the Knight Leader and an unusual hermit vomit around the walls.

The transfer of territory went smoothly.

On the day he acquired the territory, Duke Leon left with a frightening look on his face. Friella cautiously said when she saw it.

“Can I leave him like that? He's looking for payback. ”

“Huh? It doesn't matter. I won't be able to touch you. ”

“Yes? What does that mean? ”

Friella tilts her head in the ambiguous expression of Lycaen.

“I hung up on him. ”

In Lycaen's memory, there were memories of the hypogastric foramen, and knowledge of the bloodline to learn about the hypogastric foramen. And on the day of the end of the Territory War, Lycaen secretly stopped the bloodline, just once during the siege of Leon. So you don't have to make excuses for men again.

Lycaen mutters with a bloody smile.

“Maybe if you lay naked in front of your eyes, you won't be able to help yourself. ”

Priella still doesn't understand.

“Oh, man, this is gonna get ugly! ”

An old man with deep pressure on his hood lets out a loud voice. The problem was the Dementors. The wagons that the old lady brought were suspicious.

There seemed to be some dangerous items that were wrapped in black cloth for some reason. And I didn't know what would happen to them if they brought such dangerous things into the castle.

“Then you can't go inside. ”

“Oh, these guys are so stuffy. So I told you? Bergermer... No, bring me a man named Confucius here! ”

“Hey, old man! Careful what you say. We're just waiting for the old man to grow up. If it weren't for that, he would have taken us right away. ”

“Hurrah!”

Tehaz presses the urge to magically blow them away at any moment.

It wasn't like this from the beginning.

He told me not to check the cart's goods. Then he told me to bring Lycaen because I couldn't go in. But I can't do that either. Why don't you just tell the High One to come quietly?

Even so, we can't send the treasure on the wagon out.

Tehaz, who was confronting him for a long time, suddenly got up from his seat like a good idea. Come to think of it, he didn't have to come in like this.

Oh, shit!

The moment Tehaz's staff hit the floor, a sudden, violent wind blows.

“Oh, oh, oh! ”

A sudden gust of wind knocks the Federation apart. The wind in question lifted them up into the sleeping air.

“Hey, hey, old man! ”

“You worthless bastards! If I go, I go. Where...? ”

It was then.

Yuck!

Suddenly, a strange sound came from somewhere in a row.

“What is this……. ”

A moment of embarrassment comes to his face, frowning and raising his head.

Archers protrude from the wall and point their bows at themselves.

“You bastards!”

Oh, shit!

Once more, the staff hits the floor. A second gust of wind swept through the wall and swept the archers away into thin air.

“Erai, if you don't bring that burrito back to Lycaen right now, I want you to know it's your funeral!" ”

After 30 minutes, the floating soldiers safely landed on the ground.

“Master!"

Friella ran out to meet Tehaz.

“Yes, Priella. How are you?”

“Haha, I had a great time. I've learned my lesson. ”

After the war, Priella continues to visit Anton. To learn his extraordinary sense of combat wizardry.

“But I can't seem to get my head around it. ”

“Oh, you've been very busy lately. ”

“Well, let's go inside anyway. ”

The soldiers can no longer stop Tehaz. It's because Priella was a friend of the Prince they knew very well.

“Phew!”

Tehaz throws a word at the soldiers who are concerned about how good it is to tread on the ground.

“I asked him to let me in. These worthless things. Anyway, since the owner has no manners, the things below are the same. ”

“Come on in, Master. ”

Earl Frost decided to give his title to Lycaen a month after the Duke of Leon became the Duke. If the territory was merged through the territorial war, it was to solve the problem that followed.

The problem is that the enemy soldiers killed by this side of the war are now members of the same territory. It was also a matter of survivors who died in the war. For them, the new lord is the enemy who killed his husband or father.

Earl Frost did not wish to pass on to his son the territory with such problems.

But together, Lycaen was working on a new territory because he needed to adapt to it.

“Phew, I never thought I'd be doing this. ”

Lycaen was on a massive pile of paperwork for a while. It's because we had a lot of urgent matters to deal with as well as understanding new territories.

The most urgent of which was the tax problem. The taxes each lord walks in Bren Kingdom are usually about half of the income.

However, the tax that Birch Leon was collecting was close to 70%. The colonists were under extreme tyranny.

Earl Frost began by lowering the tax immediately, all of which Lycaen was doing.

Outside, I heard Priella's voice as she was popular.

“Licagien, the teacher is here. ”

“Huh? Grandma? ”

While Lycaen stood up with a happy expression, the door opened and Tehaz came in.

“Anyway, the grown-up is here, and he's not picking up. ”

“If the old lady's coming, you should know better than to call ahead. ”

“Anyway, you haven't said a word. ”

“The same goes for the old lady. How did you get your stuff, by the way? ”

“You bastard. If you see an adult, you should ask him how he is! ”

“Still a little twisted, I see. ”

“Day in, day out, man. ”

“I've already organized the storehouse, so I just need to put it away. Anyway, I'll make room for you, so get some rest. We're gonna have a big day ahead of us. ”

It was then.

Boom, boom!

Someone knocked on the door urgently.

“Come in.”

It was Raul who jumped into the Oval Office with Lycaen's permission.

It wasn't until he burst into tears by Lycaen that Raul became officially the official administrator of Earl Procures.

However, there was something wrong with Raul's expression. He looked very surprised by something.

“What's going on? ”

Raul glances at Priella and Tehaz in Ricain's question.

“It's okay, tell me. ”

“Yeah, that's... that's why something weird happened. ”

“Strange things? ”

“Yes, this is a bit ambiguous to explain... …. ”

“Keep it simple. ”

“People are missing. ”

“Who? ”

“The colonists.”

“Hmm?"

Lycaen tilts his head. Previously, the population of Prince Leon was 200,000. And Earl Frost's population is 50,000. In total, it was 250,000 people. It was not uncommon for one or two people to disappear or for a new person to come in.

However, Raul's expression solidified.

“There are 2,000 missing! ”

“What?"
