Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 4. Changes in politics (4)

Fitness is one of the most important things in the training of Lycaen knights. That's why the knights of Earl Frost have been making the soul as harsh as their physical fitness training, even after learning spears. Because of that, even though we are being punished, everything we have to say is as far as we can go.

‘Oh, this isn't it...' ’

Wolf suddenly cleared his mind and replied to Tom.

“I didn't feel bad. ”

“Khh, that's weird for you. ”

Tom said it was unfair, but in fact, the differences are due to different experiences.

Repeatedly, Wolf already knew about the knight's ritual, and it was embraced in his body. And when the Knights were reorganized by Likayen, Likayen's "strike" broke the Wolf's "formality." In the process, the waves of the waves settle down, following Lycaon's habits.

That's why Wolf thought it was so unimportant to be formal. I already know, so I can ignore it.

But Wolf was not good enough to understand that part.

“Oh, you stupid bastards……. ”

Literally. Wolf was literally about to burst. All the way to the capital, Tom and Jack reacted like this, and it became increasingly uncomfortable with Dunbane, who had misunderstood Wolf's words from the beginning. It is even more frustrating because they still do not understand.

Then suddenly something flashed in my head. Wolf immediately spits out his thoughts.

“Hey, wake up. ”

“Hehe!”

The two men slammed to their sides, rubbing their heads together and raising themselves up. Wolf asked for them.

“Are you ashamed of my Earl's lack of hair? ”

At that moment, Tom and Jack's face became a reflection.

“Huff!”

“W-what's the big deal? ”

However, Wolf said as if he was fine with another drink.

“Why, you bastards. You and I are alike. ”

In fact, all of the unofficial bodies of the Earl of Marcus knights today originated from Riccianne.

Riccianne handled the knights with a touch and sarcasm, and Wolf repeats his behavior without even knowing it. And finally, the rookies who became knights in the army watched Wolf and learned to follow.

In a certain sense, it was a natural order. An army is a group of violent men. Those who were soldiers in such an army became knights, and the first person to notice was Wolf. It turns out that the identity of the knight, who thought it was only difficult, is as cursing as they are and similar in appearance.

and naturally replicated it. Later, the newly elected knights also stepped in the same order, and that became the unique appearance of the Earl of Marcus Knights.

If we look at such a process, it is certainly not wrong to say that the behavior created by Licayenne is the same.

The problem was that Tom and Jack saw things differently. Jack ponders for a long time with an embarrassing look on his face and then opens his mouth.

“Well... I can assure you there are moments when the erl may be a bit of a nuisance, a bit of a curse, and sometimes a real scoundrel..." ”

Jack blurs and looks even more puzzled. Obviously, it was very similar to what Wolf said. But something was different.

Wolf glances at Jack for an answer and silences the answer.

“I do... What? ”

And Tom finished what Jack said.

“It's cool.”

“What about you?”

“We... I don't know? It's a little awkward...... ”

Wolf eventually declared surrender.

“Phew! I shouldn't talk to you guys. ”

From Tom and Jack's perspective, Lycaen's impact seemed to be somewhere else. And from a different point of view, the average soldier could be looking at something like Wolf, Tom, Jack, etc. But they don't think so. Even a fairly simple Wolf knew about it, but neither Tom nor Jack felt it. And Wolf gave up explaining it.

“What are you doing?”

Suddenly, Lycaen turns his head and enters the mansion's garden.

“Ah, Earl. ”

As Wolf hurriedly greets, Lycaen crosses a small garden, scouring Tom and Jack, then looks at Wolf and asks.

“Is that it?"

I realized the situation at a glance because I remembered Tom and Jack were quite rebellious on their way to the capital.

“Yes, I need to talk to you about something... Ah, I have a message from Earl Gronst. He asked me to stop by his mansion right after he got to know His Majesty. ”

“Really? Well, I have something to talk about... What about Elisha and Julia, by the way? ”

“I arrived earlier and am resting. ”

“I see. Then finish what you started. ”

Finally, Lycaen made a meaningful look at Wolf and entered the mansion.

Their current location was a small mansion on the outskirts of Edelscht, where Riccianne stayed during her stay in the capital.

Originally the capital mansion of the provincial lord, it was a house purchased by Raul who remained in the territory. In the poor Erl Frost, most of the high lords didn't even have a mansion or a capital.

Raul wanted to get to a big, safe place where he could, but he couldn't do it because Ricaien told him to save as many people as he could.

Once inside, Yulia greets Lycaen.

“Hello?”

“So, how's it going? ”

“What could possibly go wrong? Some people were picking on us on the way here... But they ran away as soon as I gave them a little look. ”

“Now your spear's pretty ripe, huh? ”

“Heehee, moderately. ”

In the meantime, Elisha appears busy. I took off the hat and muzzle that were covering my face.

“I heard you went to the palace... What's the rush? ”

“Well, we'll talk about that later. I'm in a bit of a hurry, but I need you to start working. ”

Elisha shrugs.

“We have to. That's the precaution of Earl Frost, isn't it? ”

At that point, Lycaen's gaze turned to Yulia. It's because Yulia is the only one who can tell Elisha that story.

“Heheheh heh……. ”

It's different, isn't it? Yulia scratches her back and looks away.

Lycaen looks back at Elisha.

“I need to see Earl Romon. ”

“Earl Romon is……. ”

If Earl Eisen's clan is mainstream, Earl Romon is at the center of the nonmainstream aristocratic forces. Elisha looks curious and looks at Lycaen.

“I'll contact you and make an appointment. Meet me there and talk to me. ”

“What can I tell you? I don't think you're going to join Earl Romon's clan because of your personality... ”

“Make a deal. ”

“What kind of deal? ”

“What I want is information about Earl Aegean that Earl Romon knows. ”

“What can the erl give you? ”

“Cheap stuff, you got it. ”

“Yes?! ”

Surprised, Elisha looks at Lycaen with her eyes wide open.

“Take care of it. ”

“Do you mind if I give you half the estate? ”

“If it's worth it. ”

Elisha feels distracted for a moment. Yulia has heard that Lycaen's style of handling her work is to let her take care of her own affairs and not to get involved in any confusion. But I never thought it would be like this.

Lycaen adds a word to Elisha.

“But it's as cheap as possible. ”

“Yes, we should. ”

“Beat me if I have to. ”

Chapter 5. Trading (1)

“If you have business, you'll come yourself. Why do you want me to come? ”

As soon as I saw what Lycaen was throwing at me, Caith smiled and said.

“Hehe, that's also true. Come to think of it, I should have gone. ”

“Shit……. ”

“Huff!”

Caith breathes into the wind without my knowing what to say.

The more I saw Lycaen, the more astonishing he became. How many nobles in this country can say something like that without any hesitation? Caith could bet his entire fortune that there would only be one Lycaon.

Caith himself was quite unorthodox, but this fellow, Lycaen, was far too thorough. But I don't hate it. Rather, the more I knew, the more I liked it.

“You won't do that to the nobles later, will you? ”

“Khh, I tend to live a little, but not that much. ”

“That's a relief. ”

“What did you call me here for anyway? ”

“What brings you to the palace? ”

Caith also knew that Lycaen had been summoned as soon as he entered Edelschut because he was riding in a wagon with Lycaen. It is natural to wonder as much as it is unusual.

“He reached out his hand. ”

“Hmm? You don't know anything about your relationship with Earl Eigen, do you? ”

“I don't know why... but now I think he's the one who abandoned Earl Eigen." ”

“Hmm... This is unexpected. ”

“The atmosphere will be quite violent. ”

Caith's expression is severely stiff. The relationship between the king and Earl Eisenhower is quite old.

Precisely when the king was at war with the prince. It was a fate that began when Earl Eigen joined the war as an heir to the Earl's estate as one of the Deputy Kings.
