Marquis' Express Butler

Sapiella gets to the point, but the baron only suggests food with a good smile.

“What's the trouble? The viceroy is taking such good care of me. That's why I can sleep in the castle without worries. Does the food fit your mouth? ”

“Excellent, I recommend it to Rosetta's apprentice chefs. ”

“Thank you for your compliment. Our chefs would love to hear that. Hahaha.”

But I read the worry on the baron's wrinkles. He laughs and cuts the meat, but lets out a small sigh that doesn't sound like it.

I know why. And neither is Sapiel.

In short, Jaike territory is in a lot of trouble.

We looked around the village, not just the commercial district. Meaningful information was available in the process.

Regular troops in Zaire territory are approaching the border against the Astrians. The longer the gap, the less security they have and the more bandits' strongholds around them.

In other words, the baron is not discussing the difficulties of the territory because of his face.

But I didn't interfere.

The baron may have heard of my reputation, but this time it's Sapiella, not me. There are things I can do as a country, and there are things I can do as a woman.

It is his duty to captivate the baron now.

“I overheard you when you were out in town... I heard bandits are infesting around here. ”

“Hmm. You heard the story. But soon the Punitive Force will be organized and they will be eliminated. It happens all the time. ”

“The soldiers in Zayq's territory are at the border, aren't they? ”

Following Sapiella's confrontation, the baron smiles awkwardly, trying to change the subject to social content.

“The lady is interested in politics. ”

“I don't care about that. But I'm also very interested in the comfort of the colonists. After all, it's the purpose of politicians to make people human, isn't it? We won't be able to do that if the goal fades. ”

Wow, you're pretty good.

I think someone took politics.

“That's impressive. I heard that you studied at the Royal Academy, but you must have accomplished something. The President will be pleased.”

The baron smiles and tries to change the subject, but Sapiella doesn't give up easily.

“Before I left, Hamel's brother said, House Zaire is a family dedicated to Adeline in the unseen. ”

Feels good.

“Really…… Prince Hamel said that? ”

“Why? Can you believe it? ”

“It's not that...... I'm a little surprised. ”

Of course. Don't you remember because Confucius Hamel had a head injury? Was I a wreck? No one will believe you unless you put it to the test.

Sapiella glanced at me. I nodded once, meaning that I was doing well.

She was a horse.

“Hamel OraBerni did a lot of work in the royal district this time. I met many nobles, even the king. They were attacked on the way back. I risked my life to fix this. ”

“I heard about it. I'm glad you're okay. ”

“So if you have any difficulties, talk comfortably. ”

“ ……. ”

“Hamel says you should listen to him, even if you don't know anyone. ”

Sapiella's voice is far from aesthetic. It's cold and cold. It sounds like a cohesive threat to me.

However, the baron nods, blushing his eyes to see if he was impressed.

“I'm touched to receive such kindness from an unexpected person……. ”

I don't know if he called it Confucius Hamel or Sapiella. But it's clear the baron was impressed.

“Actually, the situation isn't that great. under a lot of pressure. ”

“Did Kaien tell you something? ”

“That.”

The baron shuts up. It meant something.

I've already provided a hint to the infant. Kaien, who oversees the Golden Lions, has insisted on dispatching soldiers to various households.

The order that came to Kain, who was in charge of the elite militia in the region, with a high probability of becoming a successor, was not easily seen.

So many housewives sent soldiers, and the house of Zayq was no exception.

In addition, he also asked for various munitions and supplies. The templars complain, but the seeds don't work either. The Kaien did their best work before the Marquis even left.

The Zaiks had to send a lot of supplies to the border at that time.

It must have been quite an extravagant dinner.

“It's okay. I'm here to hear some tough stories from the colonists. You're a citizen of Adeline in some way, aren't you? ”

“Ah……. ”

“I went back to Adeline and met a bunch of strangers. I heard enough of their pain, and I thought there was a problem. My father sent me out like this, and he wanted me to meet all of you and hear enough stories. ”

Sapiella took a small letter out of her arms and showed it to the baron. He received the Marquis's letter several times, and the Baron who was cherishing it was able to recognize the handwriting at a time.

The letter was a symbol of Sapiella's right to bargain. The Grand Duke of Kronos sent his daughter, who ordered her to speak in vain.

Then the baron opened his mouth.

“Sending supplies to the border is not difficult. It's enough to eat less and save less. However, the lack of security personnel is a huge hit. ”

“The Punitive Force organization is actually difficult, right? ”

“If I'm being honest, it's true. It's hard enough to suppress the power of the bandits right now. ”

“Well, let me help you. ”

Sapiella says the baron's eyes are wide open. And I stared silently for a long time.

“…… What do you mean? I think most of Adelina's soldiers are at the border right now. ”

“Have you ever heard of a place called Mathis? ”

“I know. ”

The spiritual child looked at me and said meaningfully.

“I'll be there to help. Mathis started a mercenary business recently. I need a hands-on experience, and I don't know about you, but it's going to be a good experience. ”

“Mathis is the merchant guild representing Adeline. It's a company that settles in Adeline very quickly. Everybody's looking at it. ”

The two of them had no idea that Mathis' master was in front of them, and were willing to give it to me about my company. That's funny.

“If only I could get some help there...... But I have no connection to it. ”

“There's a connection nearby. ”

“Nearby? ”

Then Sapiella's spirit pointed to me. Now I have a chance to talk. I lowered my head slightly with a gentle smile.

“Sir Dylan is acting as Mathis' advisor. In fact, Master Su-hyun of Mathis is also a distant relative of Sir Dylan. Why don't you talk to Sir Dylan? ”

The baron's eyes changed in the description of spirituality.

“Sir Dylan. Let me ask you straight away, can you help us? ”

“Of course.”

But nothing in the world is free. Again, I have no intention of doing charity. Everything comes at a price.

“But the story goes that House Zayq doesn't seem to have the cost of hiring our mercenaries. ”

“How much do you need? ”

“How about something other than money? ”

The baron's ears became enticed. I laughed and said.

“Don't worry. I don't intend to get paid alone. There are endless ways that House Zaire and Mathis can work together. ”

“Is there something you want? ”

I lifted a finger.

“If you just sign an exclusive deal in Zaire territory, I will provide you with free reinforcements. ”

“That's... unacceptable. If you do that, all the merchants here will close the doors. ”

The baron sighs. Of course, I didn't lose my smile when I was in the mood.

“Only for some items. Just use one of Mathis' things, like office supplies and amenities. ”

“Is that all you need? ”

“Sure, that's enough. ”

There are very few types of office and amenities Pens, papers, mail, that kind of thing. That's enough to tilt your head.

But what if a new product that I have developed is released?

People will fight and run to buy my stuff. Supplies will not keep up with demand, and copy goods will play out.

Patent rights protect some, but there's nothing you can do about it being sold.

So, if you erase your debt in this way and win exclusive rights, you will have double safety measures.

The baron said carefully.

“You need a definition of office supplies and amenities. ”

“Of course. Can I fill out the paperwork tonight? ”

“Very well.”

Actually, I have all the relevant documents in my bag. It was written by Eluna herself.

The main development items are staples, post-its, ballpoint pens, pens, pens, and contractual items defining various products, including office supplies and soap.

It's kind of a understatement that I'm filling out the paperwork tonight.

If I can be honest with you that I have prepared the documents in advance, I can give the impression that I am pursuing this contract with a different intention.

I'd like to see as many holes as possible.

“But if you're a mercenary of Mathis... your name is... ”

“Avengers.”

“Yes, Avengers. Can you mobilize them immediately? If you're in Adelina, it might take a while to get back and forth. ”

“Don't worry about it. The Avengers mercenaries are already inside the Zaire camp. One word from me and I will wipe out the bandits immediately. ”

“Is there anything I can do? ”

“All you have to do is think about the contract positively. ”

I looked at him with a smile. After the banquet, the baron shared tea time with her, and I went up to my room and started preparing the contract.

* * *

Late at night, the baron's office does not turn off the lights. Because I asked the doctor to visit

As you get inside, the baron is sitting at his desk thinking.

“You seem to be worried. ”

The baron smiles. He was an honest man. I didn't avoid my nasty questions.

“I had to. Lord Adeline's mistress would know. There is a bigger problem than the taunt of the Earl of Astria. ”

“The succession problem? ”

He nods.

“Prague's sudden departure to the Horse Tower made the succession map clearer. Now the black and white fight begins. ”

“Who is black and who is white? ”

“Color doesn't matter. It's important who has the advantage. ”

I nodded. And I put down the draft contract so that he could get a closer look.

“Mattis gave his best wishes to Confucius Hamel. ”

“What does that mean all of a sudden? ”

“It literally means I'm going to be the heir. It also fits the orientation of the company. Confucius Hamel is like the rising sun. Isn't Mathis the same way? ”

The baron couldn't resist, and I pointed my finger at the contract and pushed him a little closer.

“This contract could be a huge opportunity for you. in a different way. ”

I whispered so, and the baron's eyes became deeper, knowing his intentions.
