Price of Management

“I will devote myself to the king! ”

My father was moved and shouted, receiving a sword.

It was widely known that he broke the sword in a duel with Duke Meutt. With that in mind, King Erik has bestowed a great prize.

As expected of King Erik!

He was a remarkable extraordinary man in dragonfling.

King Erik then looks at me.

“Birch of Caroc Ligand. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

“With your astonishing insight and wit, you have accomplished many things, and this alliance with the Orient Kingdom is a result of which you have no regrets. I hereby appoint you Earl, for your service. ”

“Your Grace graces me. ”

“I hereby relieve you of your duties as deputy minister of foreign affairs. So, in the future, you should be dedicated to your work as a treasure teller. ”

King Erik's announcement of greeting has finally been revealed.

King Erik was about to help me master Duke Duron as my next Chancellor.

Sooner or later, when Duke Duron retires, I plan to take over the country naturally and smoothly.

In other words, "financial assistance" meant a practical financial position. It's just that Earl Duron has postponed his retirement to guide me on a day when I'm not yet familiar with the state.

“The appointment of personnel will be communicated to the respective departments shortly in the official capacity. The newly appointed should be loyal to the crown. ”

That concludes King Eric's council.

“Are we all here? ”

Earl Antares.

Earl Antares' villa.

Five men were gathered at the house of Earl Antares, a family member of the after school family.

Five men sat at the round table at intervals, with one solemn seat vacant.

“Tsk, tsk. Earl Ranzhel's gone. ”

“You're missing one out of six. It's empty as a tooth in a cog. ”

They're just after school.

All five of them, except Earl Jason. Of course, Earl Lindell asked for a meeting.

Originally, it was right to assemble at the villa of Earl Lindell, who requested a meeting, but Earl Lindell refused to be ashamed of the destruction of the walls of Lyndel Castle.

Earl Antares, who is aware of the situation, offers to gather in his mansion. Earl Lindell agreed willingly because of the deafness complaint and no one else complained.

“Earl Ranzhel is trying to give Basque Kunt a sister these days. ”

“I know you're willing to show that you're not your father, but you shouldn't be here. ”

“I'd still like to sell you out as a traitor after school, but I'm still a little disappointed. ”

“I'm afraid Earl Ranzhel is not going to make his way to the royal family after all. ”

“No way.”

“No matter how young you are, I don't think Jason will go that far. ”

“You never know. With the royal real estate joint venture with Caroc Ligand. ”

“By the way, Caroc Ligand didn't succeed in every business he touched. Which business does he intend to invest in this time? ”

“He wants to set up a shipyard. ”

“Oh, dear. This is the business we're in. Well, can you beat us in shipbuilding on the Baden River, Caroc? Isn't that young man very resourceful? ”

“We'll make a joint venture there, even to Earl Ranzhel. You saw a possibility. ”

“Aigoo, do I need to take this seriously? Our money line, the toll booth, the shipbuilding profits, the new feet. ”

After school, you said the same thing. Earl Lindell is speechless.

At that time, another silent person opened his mouth.

“Days. This is it. ”

The conversation stops. Everyone looks at the protagonist of that old voice.

Earl Antares.

At the age of 82, he was the oldest of them all. He looked quite corrected compared to the actual age of 80 and looked about 15 years younger.

“With Earl Wolfgang Lanzhel dead, the conversation begins. Haven't you ever had a brain like this before when it was still alive?” Earl Antares said, and then others coughed and nodded.

“You're making a bad joke. ”

“Well, this is good, too. Wolfgang, he's all good, but it wasn't very funny. No, it was more than that. Haha.”

“As Earl Anthras has said, I will now enter the meeting. ”

Earl Antares smiled in repentance at their reactions.

Earl John Antares.

Originally, it was Earl Antares, who was the oldest since he was born, because he had his own insight. But Earl Wolfgang Ranzhel lost his light in a revelation of genius, and was buried as just one man after the physical uprising.

But when Earl Wolfgang Ranzhel died, he set out to take control again. That's why he was so considerate of Earl Lindell and invited her to his mansion.

“Days, then let's cut to the chase. Earl Lindell, will you tell everyone what you've been through? ”

“I will.”

Earl Lindel tries to open his mouth.

But it was then.

“I'm late. ”

A young man, much older than them, walked in without hesitation.

It was Jason Randall.

“Earl Lindell failed the assassination, and it turns out that Caroc Ligand is a senior spirit. ”

“That's what I thought. ”

Earl Halstein reports that Emperor Kars has been relentless. Earl Halstein asked with young eyes.

“Any guesses?”

“A little. Caroc told me he wanted to kill me one day. You were angry with Caroc. At that time, Caroc is not dead to you. ”

Earl Halstein had no choice but to marvel.

Haha, at that time I also felt that Carroc Ligand seemed to have something.

Caroc's reaction at that time was that Emperor Kars did not miss it. What a marvelous observation.

Earl Halstein continued to report.

“Since then, Prince Lindell has faced natural disasters such as the loss of his castle due to earthquakes. It is speculated that the earthquake was caused by Caroc Ligand and that Earl Lindell, who succumbed to the conflict on both sides, did not respond to it at all. ”

“I see.”

After hearing the story, Emperor Kars closed his eyes and thought. Numerous calculations can hit the brain in a short time.

Soon he opened his mouth.

“Earl Ranzhel is slightly inclined to the royal house of Ledon, and Earl Lindell is weakened and the forces of the aftermath are broken. ”

“Yes. Funding the rebels during the civil war was their downfall. ”

Earl Halstein confronts you.

Emperor Kars smiles coldly. It was an unnaturally distorted smile.

“The conflict between the Kingdom of Lerdon and post-school is deepening. The stronger the Kingdom of Leaden, the weaker and fragmented the landscape, the deeper the goal of conflict. Both sides are getting further apart. There's a hole in the ground. ”

“ ……. ”

Earl Halstein gazes at this Emperor Yawin without a word. There must have been a ruse in his head that was hard for him to figure out.

But one thing.

Earl Halstein saw a little emotion in his expressions that had no emotion, that ‘interest’ was too young for his eyes. It was a good guess as to who was entertaining this ice emperor.

Caroc ligand.

It was that Gill who discovered the inner parts of Emperor Kars in the first meeting.
