277 Story Rumors Flowing

In the nobility of the Kingdom of God, when it comes to foreign affairs nobility, it is considered a brainstorming gathering. Because basically what is required is that military nobility requires force, internal nobility requires solidity, whereas foreign nobility requires negotiating and coordinating power. Foreign affairs does not fall on Awful so that military personnel do not serve as infirm and bureaucrats as coarse. It is the foreign nobility that is really required to be wise.

There is also a kind of aristocratic wit. Just as the wisdom required of military affairs is wisdom for battle, and the wisdom required of internal affairs is knowledge that knows precedents well, so what is required of foreign affairs is intelligence that can be tailored to others.

Foreign affairs nobles who mediate between nobility and nobility do not refuse people visits while on duty. Whoever it is, visitors show a welcoming attitude.

The Bishop of Ornbernst-Lottrohawi was welcomed, probably because the destination of the visit was a leading member of the foreign affairs nobility.

"This is this"

"My Lord Count Cowenbar, it's been a long time"

Count Cowenbar is a heavy town of foreign affairs valves. He's a good old man there, but he's a social person with a work pattern and a smile all the time.

Recently, he's been sitting back in various noisy Wang Capitals gathering information, and he's also a sprinkler who faces the social world like every night. A party that is good at speaking and he has a face to face has a reputation for producing a lot of laughter.

It is also famous when it comes to its deep connection with the Holy Nation and its strong pipes, and its sensitivity to profit.

"The Bishop looks well, too. I'm sure I've seen you before..."

The Count is naturally familiar with the bishops he has visited today. The great and powerful people in the Wang capital face each other, and greeting church officials is indispensable. Work patterns, counts who also have many opportunities to talk to foreign dignitaries.

As an aristocrat of the Kingdom of God, he could also be searched for a belly that would not hurt if he met frequently with foreign dignitaries. In that case, it would be very helpful to have a third party present. The Church is also a certain distance from the nobility of the Kingdom of God, as well as organizations spread to various foreign countries. As a foreign affairs nobleman, it's a convenient organization.

But no matter how many counts say it's their job to remember a person's face, they don't remember everyone in the church in detail.

My face is somehow the person I remember, because I'm there, and the person I'm seeing today was one of them.

I do remember seeing him, but the priest speaks more affectionately before the Count remembers where it was.

"That's when I told you there was a celebration at Count Vallenna's."

"Oh, yes, it was. It was. We are always grateful to hear valuable stories"

The celebration of Count Vallenna refers to the coming out of those who gave magic to the man under his command.

Since another ritual of holiness is dangerous, it is centrally administered by the Church. So if you want to be a wizard, you must know the Church.

If you don't have any magic to teach, just talk about being an adult. There is no need to hide anything even as a nobleman. But if you're saying you've been given magic, it's not the story. Incredible ability is magic, transcending human power. Whatever it is, it depends on how you use it. That's why those who become wizards get a lot of pulling fees, and pull-outs are rampant. If a wizard were to be born from the house of a nobleman's men, that nobleman might make a great leap forward. Alternatively, a dispute may arise over the powers of the wizard. There is no doubt that it will be a major disturbance in any case, so it is only natural that we want to get the information that a wizard has been born even as Count of Cowenbar, who is involved in foreign affairs, as soon as possible.

But the new wizard's side also plays defense. As a simple measure, for example, you put money in the church and stop it. It is widely known as an open secret, but if you intend to withdraw information from the Church, the Church's mouth will remain firm if you pay double the stopping fee as a market. This is also a decision that the Church itself is imposing, and that it also involves trust. In the case of large sums of money, there is no leakage of information from the church unless there is more to it.

Conversely, the church is a treasure trove of information as long as you pay for it. As Count Cowenbar, I use the Church as a very good source of information, and the Church side wallets Count Cowenbar as a good gold. It is a held relationship, and the Bishop visited it for a reason around it.

"So what can I do for you today?

"Actually, Your Excellency would like to ask you something."

Count Kowenbar and Bishop Lotlohawi secretly talk in a small voice. It is really obvious, but desirable in the sense that from the Count it will smell like gold.

"What's a favor?

"In anticipation of His Excellency with a wide face, I would like you to draw your friend's attention."

"Ho."

He is Count Cowenbar, face-to-face everywhere as a foreign affairs valve. Remind me to pay attention. I mean, tell me to run the rumors. I tend to consult with the Count.

But the rumor of this hand is often hidden behind someone's good intentions. What the hell is the intent? The Earl urged him to continue as he explored carefully.

"Your Excellency, you are aware that the Mortairn family recently crusaded the Dragon."

"Of course, I know."

"So what's the story about that dragon being put up for auction?

"… we have heard rumors to a lesser extent"

About the dragon we're talking about. Speaking of rumors, that's what the tail fin spine is spreading all over like a peacock feather. It is also simply an impactful topic and treasures it as a conversation story. If many people talk about this, there will be a mix of stories and speculations that are appropriate to boost the story. The more time we have, the more the story transforms, and if we are aware of it, a hell of a rumor spreads.

That's what rhetoric is all about.

Count Kowenbar, who is familiar with rumours flowing into the social world, is also well aware that rumors and other things cannot be guessed.

On the other hand, however, we also know that there is some mixing of information and truth.

The point is, you just have to have the strength to identify the information.

"In fact, at that auction, it sells nothing but dragon blood."

"Hmm, is that a sure story?

"Of course. A small job has taken his own leg and confirmed it."

"Is it Master Left?"

If the accuracy of the information means that there is no more certain story than the primary information. If you have backtracked yourself, it seems like you can trust it a lot.

"How well do you know about dragon blood?

"... has the power to heal, only"

"That's right. Even we have confirmed that it has some effect on dragon blood."

"Ho!?

The Count turned a blind eye to the insignificant information said.

Rumors of a "seemingly” healing power in dragon blood were thriving. However, the content of the story was just the content, and there was a slight smell. I also suspected that the Mortairn family was promoting it as a means of making money, in combination with houses around the Ratesh and Kadreček families.

Healing power. If something like that were to come out, that's going to be pretty important.

If the Church is to affirm that it is the result of their own examination, it must be a fact first and foremost. This alone is a great source of information that seems to make a lot of money if you move well.

The Earl nodded satisfactorily at the bishop's "handicraft”. And pull yourself together right away. This is all I've brought a big souvenir. Because what I want to ask for must be something big.

"But nothing else, especially bones and skins, is allowed to have healing effects"

"Hmm."

"What's more, when it comes to scales and even nails, the healing power is immense. This is a good thing to swear in God's name."

"I guess that means saying it all out, for sure. Of course I never doubt the words of the bishop."

More than in ancient times, the custom of special regard for blood as well as dragon life blood exists in many areas. Even if that's why the dragon's blood had a special power, most humans were surprised and didn't deny it. Because everyone has the consciousness that blood is so special to creatures.

But as there was a special power in blood, nothing else is special either. The bishop affirms that even though meat and guts may still be on the bloodstream, bones and skins have no special healing power.

"And what the Church sees as a problem is that some humans are trying to sell it at a high price to other things on the grounds that they have a special power in dragon blood"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Unfortunately, people are vulnerable to bad temptations. If it is our duty to guide you correctly so that you are not impugned by nausea, it is up to you to go out like this."

"I see"

The Earl thought of several noble names at once. This house is going to make a lot of money selling dragon material. Of course the head would be the Mortairn family, but other than that, a few families as relatives would get leisure money, and some are likely to benefit as the same faction.

It's the dragon material we're talking about. The Count thought that the blood of a special dragon was not strange either by the side or in the presence of several houses already in his possession.

One nail, one bone, or one scale. To this extent, it is not strange to distribute gratitude, etc. for being taken care of.

What will you do if you get it? Naturally, you'd want to increase your value. Then, even with some uncertainty, it may circulate as a rumor and increase the value of what you have, or the noticeable material available.

The Earl, who has begun to read a lot more deeply, nods several times.

"But I say on top of the other, the dragon's blood, a hundred steps apart and nothing but the dragon's flesh, at least has no healing power. Blowing this as if it were something special is a blatant lie and defies God's teachings."

"No, you're right. Lies and such are embarrassing stories as the same nobility. Human beings, honestly, would be the best."

"The boulder is His Excellency the Count. Human beings are made."

"No, not so much"

Lies, exaggerations, falsehoods and hatchlings are common in aristocratic societies, but that would not have happened on this occasion now.

The Count behaves as if he were a clean, white, saintly prince, but he knows for a hundred that that cannot be the case.

"I ask you to ask His Excellency's high morality. I'd like you to tell your friend to do more right so that people don't sin. As a single believer, this is true."

The Count asks the bishop, who bows his head deeply, how he is.

"Ho? I mean, you want me to give you bad reviews about anything but dragon blood?

"Bad reviews are bad people. After communicating the fact that it cannot be used other than ornaments, the Church merely says that it will waste uselessly on the left. It is the priesthood's mission to deliver God's glory and righteous teachings."

Technically, it's true that dragon head stripping has no other use than decorating. There's no way I'm going to crush and fertilize a strip the size of a little house. It would have an outstanding effect for decorating as a hunting trophy, but in the end it would be treated the same way as a piece of art.

Church clergy live on self-sufficiency and donation. It has become so. For once, pure poverty is regarded as a virtue, and too much luxury as pre-construction is regarded as a bad thing.

That's why it makes sense not to buy or sell materials that are required solely to satisfy vanity, such as dragon claws. If that is by lies, then it is displeasing.

It is only unnatural for a church that should not be secularly involved to come out and suddenly enlighten and turn to "no luxury," “no lie," but there seems to be nothing dark behind what it is doing. At least it seemed that way to the Count.

"I understand the story. But that being said, it's hard to move poorly and get resentment from the Mortairns and around them."

I fully understand what the bishop said, Count. Except when it comes to whether or not you move.

It is the aristocratic society that has the heart to ask for it. It is natural to ask for quite a bit in return if the other person, though a clergyman, is going to do every favor.

In response to the Count who darkly mentioned it, the bishop begins to cut the bargaining cards he had at his disposal.

"Of course you will. But don't worry about that."

"Say?

"When you're done, you can make a public statement, also based on what is a request from us. At that time, you may also say that your actions are supportive of the Church. We'll work with you."

"Ho."

Moving on a request from the Church, the Church publicly declares that it is satisfied with the move. This means that the Church is behind the Count and fully cooperates. At least I can brag about this one that I am absolute justice.

The Church originally intended to distance itself from secular power, and its influence would be great if cooperation could be publicly proclaimed. Religious authority is worth using no matter what.

Whatever the years, the business of man remains fundamentally unchanged. Especially the aristocratic society is the logic of a gentleman's skinned beast. What a lot of people try to take away what they want with strength.

When it comes to robbing with strength, what matters is name, or pre-construction. If you don't have a rationale that looks beautiful on its face, you can't complain if it takes back what you've taken by force. That is why, even if we take it by force, we will use the righteousness that we think is justified as pre-construction.

God willing. There's no such thing as an easy name to use. As reason and ointment can be found everywhere, to some extent, there is no contradiction with what the Church teaches. This means that we can always stand and act on the side of justice, unless it is roughly an abominable act.

Such delicious stories are rare.

"Well, why don't we work together?"

"I appreciate that.

It was not until shortly after that that that rumors circulated to the Wang capital.
