Price of Management

Chapter 5. The Time of Two

I entered the winter.

The Royal School took the entrance exam. Hundreds of admissions candidates gathered and stared. Most of them accepted as children of the noble family. It meant that there were some basic qualities. In spring, the first semester will begin safely.

Louie stepped in as General Manager of Maneuvers. They organized an administrative system according to the Maneuver Administration and trained each department to ensure that Hadan and all the officials within the Royal Court acted as planned during the exhibition.

Thanks to this, the anxiety over the trends in the Horn Empire is also relieved, and a stream of air now begins to rush in. When the correct response system and individual roles were clearly defined, everyone was motivated.

Everything is fine.

My family was peace itself.

My beloved son Jis is now very active. I can wander around the mansion. Then I fell more often.

Whenever I fall, Woundee can catch me, but Julia insists strongly on the matter.

“We have to nurture it so it can fall and hurt again. What do we do? We have to wrap it up and protect it every time? ”

“Well, I hear that, but it's a pity you get hurt. ”

“Only let Woundee protect you when you're in great danger. Woundes can heal your wounds until you fall. ”

“Oh, that would be nice. Sis, you're with me, right? ”

“Yes.”

Therefore, Jis' education policy was set again. To be stronger.

But was it our tilt?

Jis, who was a different kind of friend from birth, fell but rarely cried. I stand up again and walk around like it's nothing. Whose house is that strong? I don't even know if it's really mastery, like my father said.

I also worked in the royal palace as a good example.

I've never been late or absent without permission. He plays hardball when he gets a chance, but he does it when he does.

It's an incredibly peaceful time when the risks of war are so heightened.

At this time, a large incident occurred in the Kingdom of Leaden.

No, technically, it wasn't Lerdon, it came to me.

6: 00 p.m.

As soon as it was time to go home, I quickly cleaned up my work.

“See you tomorrow, then! ”

After a brief greeting to Eva, you leap out the window. I flew into the mansion like the wind in an Earth Hand made of gnome. The worker's mind wants to leave for work a second early.

But as I got close to the mansion, it suddenly felt popular around me.

Of course, there were many people watching because our mansion built on the garden was so beautiful, but one of them's attitude strangely stimulated my senses.

I focused more on my senses shared with gnomes.

And I was surprised.

An enormous amount of error, like the great sea, was embedded in the man. Moreover, it sank peacefully without a single ripple.

Killing an extraordinary level of intelligence. Even I, a senior spirit, almost passed.

Only the master of the order can do this!

He's not my father or Rick. Who is he? I've met many error masters, but I've never felt this way before.

Plus, it's huge. It's over two meters tall and has great muscle tone.

“Noum, let's go that way. ”

- Yeah, Dad.

I flew towards the mysterious error master.

You cover yourself with an old robe with a hood. But I was able to closely understand what it looked like to share my senses with gnome.

Old people with hot hair and stubble. He was not very old like the error master for maintaining a middle-aged youthful appearance even though he was usually old.

Then the calculation would be that the actual age would be enormous.

Who is it? Let's think.

An elderly error master who came to the bloodline hiding his old robe.

Besides, if this is a huge thing...?

The name of a person hits the brain.

Soon I opened my mouth.

“Did you come to see me? Grand Duke Rompel. ”

“ ……! ”

I was shocked at the old man's face. That was correct.

“How did you know? ”

“I can only think of one old error master who might come to visit me in a somewhat suspicious manner. You here to spy on me? ”

“What a spy. I'm just interested, but how did you know I was old? ”

“That's what it looks like. ”

“Hahaha, what a surprise! ”

Duke Rompel has thrown off the old robe.

A big figure and a hot beard were revealed. A vicious battle ax on your back shines on the moonlight.

“This is it. Even though you tried so hard and erased your wits, you see the big guy with the robe upside down, and you think it's me. ”

“I've heard a lot about you being quick to notice. That's one hell of a prize. ”

“Puhaha! Indeed, the Emperor is in the spotlight! ”

“Don't be so loud about the ‘Emperor‘. You're in the spotlight.”

“Ah, is that so? ”

Duke Romfel scratched his head.

“Anyway, come on in. Have you eaten?”

“I've only been drinking water for three days. ”

“I heard the economic situation in the Horn Empire is a little difficult. ”

I say again, Duke Romfel has set off another Khahaha Falls.

“It's hard, but don't look so ugly. You're the one who rode off on a horse drinking water to meet you. ”

“Very well. Anyway, I was just about to join you for dinner. I wasn't prepared for the guest of honor, but I'll make sure you stay put. ”

“Oh, great. I like your hospitality, even though you're an enemy. Large distribution.”

“Were you hostile to the Horn Empire? ”

On my account, Duke Rompel smiled in relief.

“I see. Not yet. ”

“Until then, let's not get ahead of ourselves. ”

“I see. Pardon me for being a soldier for the rest of my life. ”

“You're welcome. Now, follow me. They're preparing a meal for the Grand Duke by now. ”

Duke Romfel was once again shocked.

“For me? It's only been five minutes. ”

“It was instructed by a spirit. ”

“Indeed. You can instruct a spirit without speaking." ”

“Yes, I can communicate in detail the state of my emotions. ”

“That's kind of you. Can you teach me your skills like this? ”

“Well, I'm sure you already know that, since the Magic Legion of the Horn Empire has been spending money on me over the years. ”

“Haha, that's what happened. ”

“Oh, you didn't know? ”

“That's the first I've heard of it. ”

I laughed at Duke Romfel.

“What you don't know is that the results of the study didn't seem to be that great. ”

I was surprised by what Duke Romfel said.

“Well, why is that? ”

“If there had been such a great success with the animistic measures, would you have kept it a secret from His Majesty, the Grand Duke, no matter how secret? You don't know because there's not much to tell. ”

“I see!”

Duke Romfel slapped his forehead.

“Oh, my mistake! ”

“Hahaha, it was expected anyway. Now, let's not dwell on trivial matters and eat inside. ”

“Not at all trivial. You became a soldier and spilled national secrets. This is... ”

“It's a secret, isn't it? Of course. ”

“I'm glad I'm seeing things sooner. I have a face, too. If my disciple finds out, he'll make fun of me. ”

“You mean the Marquis of Great Gentiles? ”

“Ah, yes. That weakling. Is that true? ”

“It was a good battle. ”

“A good battle always wins. ”

“That's exactly what I'm saying. ”

“Kuhahaha!”

Duke Rompel laughed as if it were funny. We went into the mansion, talking things out.
