Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 5. Preparing for the journey (5)

Joel starts chattering in Lycaen's words.

“It's been a long time since I've picked out his land. How long will you build a house and live there? ”

All of a sudden, I saw Joel with a grumbling face, why others, other than Lycaen, wanted to do this. But Lycaen smiled and said as if he had a hunch.

“Why, what a waste. ”

“What?"

“Too bad I have to leave here. ”

“Ugh! What are you looking at me for? Do you think I've been so hard on a secret residence like this? There are dozens of these all over the continent! Well, speaking of which, you have no idea how much work it takes to make one of these. We need to find a place, keep gaps in sunlight, create windways to keep the wind flowing, fly materials to build a house, come and manage it from time to time, and most of all, how hard it is to break through! ”

“Phew!”

It was Raul who suddenly burst into laughter. And then I interrupted.

“Somehow, I thought you were complaining about bringing someone.... That's why.”

After that, Friedra listened.

“We got a lot of money into this, too. By the way, I think you paid enough to use it here. ”

He shouts in a surprised voice, as if it had just occurred to him.

“Huh? I see. I think we invested a lot of money in you. ”

“Tsk!”

Eventually, Joel turned his head, frowning, and his grumbling was quickly suppressed.

“Raul.”

“Yes, Lord! ”

“You must have contacted each other properly, right? ”

“Of course. Some are already on the move, others are moving at the same time as finishing what they were doing. ”

“What about Anton and Elisha? ”

“I've contacted you, too. Captain Anton will remain in Earl Poldenbine awaiting orders, and Elisha will meet him at Kwentium. ”

“Kwentium?”

Lycaen asked in a surprised voice.

Kwentium is a very uncomfortable place for Elisha to move. Isn't there a knight of the twilight who knows her face?

Moreover, she was a secret negotiator of the emperor at night, but by day is known as a noble spirit who used to open famous salons in the imperial family. It means that many other people besides the Knights of twilight can recognize her.

“Yes, I said I would wait in Kwentium. ”

“Do you know why Kwentium? ”

“I thought it might be dangerous, so I tried to stop it.... Elisha said she would give a good gift to the Lord and asked you to come there. ”

“Hmm……. ”

I tilted my head and thought about what happened, but nothing came to mind.

“You'll figure it out. ”

If you don't know the answer to your question, don't worry.

Lycaen comfortably thought so, then turned to the crowd.

“You know, basic construction is going to be quite a hassle. ”

“Well, I've already been prepared. ”

“Hehehe, shall we go now? ”

Lycaen gets up on his feet, grabbing his ass.

“Go ahead, then. I'll clean up here and go. ”

I was looking around to see if Joel liked it.

“Damn, this was my favorite place! ”

Then I walked inside the BumpBumpBump Building.

Seeing Joel like that, Lycaen shrugs once and looks at the group.

“I'm sure you've already packed your things. Let's get them out of here. ”

Priella and Raul walk into the house first.

“Well, this is a pretty good place for a vacation. ”

Kaith mutters as if he understood Joel's mind, sweeping the surrounding landscape once.

Lycaen, who was not yet inside, said to Caith,

“Don't go to Muvek Port, go to Bashroden Port. ”

“Huh? Why? ”

“I have work to do there. ”

“What?”

“You'll see when you go. Our people will be waiting for you when you get there. Get on a boat from there. ”

Lycaen says something with a meaningful expression, and Caith feels ominous as usual. But I knew it was pointless to say no.

“Well, got it. ”

Lycaen smiles and adds a few words to Caith, who quickly gives up and nods.

“You'll find my gift there. ”

“Huh? A gift? ”

Lycaen was joking, but his words caused him to feel even more uneasy.

“What gift? ”

“I know when I go. ”

Finally, Lycaen went into the house.

Chapter 6. Declaration of War (1)

“Huh!”

A frightening cry erupts from Maral's mouth. On my forehead, I was sweating.

“This is……. ”

I double-checked, but his findings clearly point to one thing.

“Ka, descendants of Kasvan! ”

Maral, who was instructed by Rowan to investigate the confusionist, dug it out in two directions.

The first was to hunt down those who were confusing the problem, and the second was to investigate the events of Kasvan who had died in the past.

And a month.

The results came sooner than I thought. We find out who the descendants of Kasvan are.

Ever since I first remembered about 'Clymus in India,' tracking down Kasvan has quickly led to results.

If you had the other side of the fence and investigated, you'd still be dead. It was a pretty lucky decision to have felt conflicted and thought of Kasban in relation to it.

Contrary to the quick findings, however, the fact that it turned out to be quite shocking for Maral.

He was also a person who had a few faces.

“Vermouth was a descendant of Kasvan! ”

I couldn't believe it.

And according to tissue data, he was supposed to be dead a few years ago. But Burset was alive and he was a successor to Kasban, and he was planning a great deal for Circus.

“Anyway, we have to tell this.... ”

It was at that moment that Maral stood up and approached the door.

“Hmph! Who are you?! ”

A startled cry erupts from Maral's mouth, and his body quickly turns back. I was about to go out, but suddenly there was an intense energy in the back.

Viron's Clymus is magically using Mana, but it feels completely different because its system is completely different. The aura Maral just felt was definitely a unique aura when using alchemy.

And the fog that rises at the same time as the screaming.

“Hmph!”

Maral quickly brings his hands together in front of his chest, staring at the rising smoke. What he had in his hand was a small piece of silver, sparkling iron.

“Oh, wait a minute. ”

The thin voice that comes in before the smoke clears.

“A woman?”

When Maral heard his voice, he was surprised and flawed, and the smoke that had risen was lifted and the human appearance was revealed.

“Are you Vienne? ”

Maral looks at the sudden appearance of Vienne, frowning without loosening his caution. I only knew my normal face because I never thought it was good intention for the Viennese to suddenly appear.

“I don't think this is the first time we've had this conversation. ”

Maral takes a step back, even though he smiles softly and asks.

“I don't think it was okay for us to show up all of a sudden? ”

“Oh my! Who are you with, then? ”

“In this case, it wouldn't be unfair to die. ”

“Yes, it is. But since he's not dead, I think we can talk about it... Can't we? ”

Maral takes a few more steps back with a bewildering look on his face as he smiles and talks. Even within the organization, Vienne's beauty was on the way, but I felt somewhat cautious because she pretended to be friendly with a smile.

It was obvious what the Viennese were after. She was able to make a cold assessment of her appearance and knew exactly how to use it. Even if you don't use a beauty, beauty can be a significant advantage in this subtle negotiation.

Maral carefully recalls Vienne's words.

“A story?”

“I know what you do. ”

I tightened my tension once again.

What Maral is doing right now is doing what Rudia asked him to do in secret.

“What's going on? I'm just following Rowan's orders. ”

“Hehe, you don't have to hide it like that. Climus, India, you're looking for a man with a strong body odor. ”

“You knew about this already? ”

“No, no, you don't have to be so vigilant. I really came here to tell you something, to make an exact suggestion. ”

Vienne smiles brightly at the end of the speech, one big step forward.
