Surprisingly, the opening ceremony with the big news ended without any particular lag.
It is so little confusion that I wonder if it had been notified beforehand. But it seems that it stemmed somewhat from a lack of knowledge.
To the kingdom nobility is already a past existence with the priesthood forces. Exactly. "What's a holy witch? Though I don't think there are any aristocrats with low levels of contemporary generations.
All in all, few seemed to have an accurate picture of the current situation in the Holy City and of developments in the Priesthood neighborhood. They lacked the judgment material on how to capture the sudden appearance of the Holy Witch.
It must be because of that, it was more confusing since the ceremony came down the curtain and left between the roundtables. Everyone was desperate to get information.
The luncheon thus began as some floating air drifted.
"Oh, look. I have Will's favorite raw fish."
Plume, who was taking my arm, points to a carpaccio-style sashimi dish arranged on the table.
"Shall I have a little? I want to eat as much as I can while I'm in King's Landing."
When I said that, a Civilian Quordenze, who was holding back diagonally, received a plate from a servant of Levios on the table.
Silopea Civilian does not move. I don't seem to eat prumes.
Luncheon is a standing meal party with extensive use of two places: the royal castle and the garden. The weather is beautiful today, so me and Plume were enjoying a meal in the garden.
Meal provision in the garden is in the form of a Viking, which has existed as a formality since the time of the priest.
It's a little cumbersome not being able to take your own food, but it's much appreciated because there are exceptionally few table manners compared to when you sit down and eat.
Servant Levios looked at me and said in a tone he was used to saying like a template.
"If you like, be sure to come to Wangdu at a different time next time. You can enjoy different fish dishes every season."
"Well, what do you have?
One male nobleman approached me as I listened lightly from a servant.
It is the nobility that should prevail, so I will end the conversation with my servant.
"This is it. Isn't it Lord Wilk of the Marquis of Qualdenze and Lord Plume of the Earl of Silopea? Do you behave differently from the Marquis or Count?
............... I can't think of a name all the time. I mean, it's supposed to be a weak aristocrat other than the Qualdenze. If you are an aristocrat of your own faction, you have put particular effort into memorizing it.
Suddenly you speak to me, which means you must have said hello once. Are you the type of nobleman who flirts with factions everywhere? Skinny middle-aged men on the outside, this falls under….
I make a smile and I squeeze my brain desperately. Yes, we must have met during our stay in the city of Calahanasso.
"Yeah, my father's eating in the castle. Baron Elisa seems different from your son."
The unlimited priority of remembering a weak aristocrat other than his own faction who is not a princess. As much as I want to compliment myself as I can remember.
I was applauding in my brain watching Plume continue to respond.
There are many cases where this luncheon, present and next generation, is acting differently. They say that being too good with parents can make a bad impression from other houses. He's unreliable.
This time, me and Plume are acting apart from the parents because of those circumstances. Well, there's no real reason.
The baron has apparently come close to looking for a carpaccio-style sashimi. A refraining civilian-like human had received a plate.
"The fish from Levios suits your mouth very well. It's one of my pleasures when I'm staying in Wang Du. Especially in winter, fish with fat lining the table…"
Apparently, fish like burritos are caught on Levios territory.
Have you come for a fish talk, this guy? He was a baron who enjoyed speaking so much that he thought so, but gradually the topic moves in the direction of the opening ceremony.
"No, I was surprised earlier. No way she..."
Well, I see I see what he's up to.
"Well, who is she? There were several people on the stage."
King Levios' greeting, and Launa's stage alone, did not end the ceremony. Later, Princess Alina and the old woman, who is vice president of Aotearoa Hall, also took the stage to give a speech.
They are not in the position of the host or the next host, but sometimes they say hello. Princess Arina talked dignified like a queen, in a firm tone.
From me, I waited for the Baron's word without saying the name of the "she" candidate. He looks a little troubled and then whispers.
"I'm talking about Lord Lucott"
Lord Lucott.
Baron Elisa's territory is in the southern part of the kingdom. Apparently, there are quite a few visions about priests as well.
The full name of the priest has a basic form of "family name + name + rank + title + priest name," which is uselessly long.
His family name is Zethrie Katreak, his name is Lucot, his rank in the Zeth Holy High Council is Kipara, his priesthood is Zethrie Carline, which means the Holy Witch, and finally, his name as a priest, Lorna. Above, the Holy Witch Rhona is Zethrie Katreak Lucott Kipara Zethrie Carline Rhona.
In some cases, it's especially long because it's Lorna. Because her home is the main house of the Katreak family, in short, the Sacred Tradition Katreak.
Zethrie of Zethrie Katreak is an ancient language, which, if translated directly, means "daughter of Zeth, Katreak". Only the person of the Sacred Tradition Katreak is allowed this name.
And the priest who comes from the Sacred Patriarch is allowed to add the ancient language meaning "daughter of Zeth" or "son of Zeth" before the title.
If Rhona were the daughter of a branch of the Katreak family, her full name would be a little shorter and she would be Katreak Lucot Kipara Carline Rhona.
However, since this is only a basic form, different forms of naming also exist. I wouldn't have understood much on my own without Cynthia's commentary on the irregular stuff.
Even in the Sacred Capital, few people feel bad that the full name of the priest is not sure about the rules. I think there are more people in the kingdom nobility who don't know.
In the meantime, Baron Elisa squeezed out the name "Lord Lucott" in a troubled citation.
I must have decided that it would be easier to call Lucott, a name as a person, than to call him strangely in the priestly name, the status quo in which each nobleman's standing vis-à-vis the existence of Rhona is invisible. I can see as much as I know about priests.
"Lord Lucott? Oh, you mean Lord Rhona."
I think the first vague expression "she" was intended to explore what the Qualdenze family would call Rhona.
It can be described as a weak aristocratic move fluttering bat-moves between Qualdenze Zeldomitra.
"Lord Rhona's stage was unexpected."
Plume, transformed into princess mode, superimposes words on my remarks. It is a brilliant collaboration. I want to lay my body and mind in bed if I can.
Baron Elisa hitches a ride just to say he was saved.
"Yes, I'm talking about Lord Rhona. Hey, I never thought you'd see a man in a position like Lord Rhona in the King's Capital!
As a Qualdenze, Rhona has decided in a Levios compliant Rhona call… that would have been well communicated to the Baron as well.
"The Sacred Capital has been settling in recent years. Free City County...... So much so that we have had room to look externally at the protests between independent aristocrats, such as the priesthood brokering a truce. But no way Lord Rhona is in exile, it's also in the Levios family... um, surprise."
Did Baron Elisa get in a good mood for the problem being solved, or will he rap again?
The Holy Witch, who temporarily surrendered herself to the kingdom so that she would not be caught up in the recent coup d 'état in the Holy Capital... King Levios introduced Lorna as such.
Less upset for the kingdom aristocrats would have been much more telling that the aristocratic side was superior. In addition to that, the fact that there was a political dispute in the Holy Capital pleased them. Because the people who caused the turmoil can mock their lack of growth, their stupidity, which once again wreaks civil strife.
King Levios also made a good introduction.
"No, the priest would have been hanged last year in the king's capital, wouldn't he? I was surprised at the earlier stage because that had just happened. The Levios family also burned their hands..."
Speaking of which, that happened.
The details are unknown, but you think a priest's handler was captured by the Levios family in the King's Capital by revealing something?
In the aftermath of that, in Qualdenze territory, extremist priests such as Deanna leapt, so much so that there was an incident in Newnelly Field.
For once, the people of the Qualdenze family are also looking into the rumors around it, but they haven't gotten much more information. According to the investigators, thank God the Levios have issued a warrant.
From what the Baron said, however, I felt a distinctive attitude of excellence characteristic of a human being who knew the profound circumstances. "You'd like to hear that, wouldn't you? I won't tell you." Think about it and do it. It's a face.
"Well, that's what happened? Do you have anything to do with Lord Rhona?"
It was Plume who said so.
I told you about the name Lorna, so what the Baron knows about the case, right?... I can hear words behind that.
"No, what? It's about the mud."
So Plume kept staring silently at the baron trying to deceive him. Then he leaks a grin just because he says he's here.
When the incident happened, I stayed in Wangdu.
Maybe I was going to talk to you from the beginning. The baron kept his voice down, but he didn't particularly hesitate to talk to me.
"Thank you. The priesthood seemed to crave money. You think a lowly priest tried to sneak into the Mint of the King's Capital and steal gold coins and lumps? You thought there was something golden-eyed, and the treasure trove and stash under the castle seemed to have been targeted.... Well, the quality of Levios gold coins is the best on the continent."
Very good quality gold is calculated from the fields of the King's Capital owned by the Levios family. Gold coins made with it are highly trustworthy and worthwhile enough to circulate even in imperial territory. Viscount Galliana said that the Federation of Mumshreds, as well as the land of fog, works quite well. That's how pure gold is.
"Oh, that's an unexpected thing."
The Levios will want to put in a scratch. But the Baron denies it.
"No, you can't just go after an important facility like a mint. Sneaky lowlife priests and their subordinates were all killed or captured on the spot. The city made a scene then..."
In the Wang capital, low-ranking priests and Levios martial officers clashed, and the people of the Wang capital said they were trembling. Most importantly, the local Levios side was overwhelmingly advantageous and was suppressed by chance.
A knight from the Levios family came several times to explain the situation to Baron Elisa, who happened to be staying in the King's Capital.
"That's something like the Levios Army."
The Levios army seems to be good at ops against guerrillas, as are Genocide troops.
To my words, the Baron snorts.
"But you couldn't capture everything. Thank you. The priest seemed to be working in multiple groups..."
They didn't open their mouths until they died, even torturing the captives without knowing and succumbing.
"It looks like we've also found a lair for the priesthood, but you didn't seem to have much useful information left. Apparently there was a plan to use the money to hire submissive mercenaries, but what were you going to do with it at all? Where there was some power, the king's capital would of course not be swayed by Corbovia."
... Were you trying to do the same thing in Levios territory as Deanna did? The Rupettas are also employed by Deanna and lured to the field.
But the King's Capital field just recently drained Warcraft El Senior. I don't think it's likely that there's a near-maturity Warcraft lurking around like Newnelly Field. Does that mean the field on the Corbovian side was the target?
"There was just an attack on the Levios family and a case of a priest who could receive it. That is also bitter for the Levios family that they will miss the rest of the party. … so you were surprised at Lord Rhona's stage."
The closing words would mean that now we've had enough backstory to thank you, right?
Well, you'll find out about the designation sometime, and it's not like I can be very grateful. Too much for consideration.
Baron Elisa left in a stirring move when he finished the conversation. Now we will also go to the gathering place of the Zeldomitras. It's hard work.
Me and Plume decided to moisten our throats by getting a drink from a servant of Levios who was walking nearby.
"Will's having a great time after this."
That's what Plume says when he looks around and makes sure he's not noticed. It has a slightly teasing tone.
"If it sounds fun, will Pull come out with us?
"Already. If you put it that way, you'll be mistaken."
Meh, and Plume praised me with a small voice.
The exchanges scheduled for the afternoon are time to hold talks in individual house-to-house. Therefore, Plume of the Silopea family is not present.
If she is my fiancée, we can also attend together, but sincerely regrettably, the status quo has not.
If Plume is mistaken, he wants it. Mistakes are welcome to unfold.
"Well, I have fun and fun plans before the afternoon talks..."
Lord Wilk.
Plume's voice changes from that of childhood tame to that of the princess of the Silopea family.
Looking back, I found one male aristocrat walking in from afar. Away, but if you look at the reaction around you, you can guess who it is. Apparently, fun fun appointments have arrived.
I corrected my posture and waited for the visitor. The nobles around them perceive the air and pay attention here.
"Lord Qualdenze Wilk."
"Yes. Excuse me, but what about you?
I could see Plume was all the way down.
Only Quordenze Wilk, I'm the only one having a conversation here.
"Hmm, speaking of which, was this the first time we met? I've been with the Marquis of Qualdenze a few times, so I spoke up."
I am in a very high position for the next head of the Qualdenze family. More than me, it's the status of the current and previous generations. For this reason, it is not easy to get out poorly against other nobles.
The statement that he has been present with his father is an indication that he is in the status of a nobleman. Thanks to you, I'll be able to make the right move.
"With my father? Really? That's a shame. My father says hello in the castle, so I can't say a formal greeting right now."
This was the real reason my father and I were acting differently. If we were acting together, introductory time would start here.
"No, I don't mind. Let me say something to the Marquis of Qualdenze from me."
So once he separated the words, he set me still before continuing the words.
"I thought I should apologize directly to Lord Wilk. My daughter was very disrespectful the other day. This is it."
So he...... Archduke Mirendorva expresses his apologies. There was no more as a modus operandi of apology that the uppermost indicated to the lowest.
Oh, such a blur echoes all around me. Now this is a place where many Qualdenze nobles gather around me, Grand Duke Mirendorva had many eyes on him.
So I respond quietly while acting like I just realized who the Grand Duke is.
"Please don't. If that's what you can say, there's nothing from me.... I can also be scolded by my father in Newnelly, and I can be greatly discouraged then. I would appreciate your forgiveness for reprimanding your princess. Even for me, I don't want to see her depressed."
Interpretation.
For now, I accept your apology, but you have no room to negotiate with me because I'm leaving it to my father about this drop. And anyway, if you're self-governing, what's going on with your education to cause such disturbances in other territories? Scold me not to do it again, but don't scold me in a weird way.
"... aye ok"
That's all I have to do. The Grand Duke turned his back on me without staying long.
Receive the apology of Grand Duke Mirendorva in public. I'm just a little relieved that one of the big events I'm waiting for today has cleared up.
Qualdenze Wilk and Grand Duke Mirendorva have not yet officially exchanged greetings. In other words, all the conversations that have taken place here become informal.
An unofficial apology in public.
The Levios family also thinks of a pretty good drop. If this is the case, the nobles who have witnessed it can talk a lot about it. It was a settlement that critically meets the requirements held by the Qualdenze and Mirendorva families.
Nevertheless, why should I be so concerned on the receiving end of the apology?
Grand Duke Mirendorva… is the current head of the Mirendorva family who settled for a protracted civil unrest with the Levios family. I watched him leave.
Five candlesticks illuminating only the west and a double-edged sword directed east. Drawn on a swinging cloak it is the crest of the Mirendorva family.
A branch of the Levios family, independent to follow the aristocracy of the easternmost part of the continent, that is the Mirendorva family. What the crest of the house means is extremely simple.
The sword keeps force, and the candlestick lights represent the light of order that shakes away the savage dark age of turmoil. Gathered in a new era illuminated by the Levios family, the dark Far Eastern nobles who defy this will perish...... arguably a crest with a good understanding of the Mirendorva family's founding epoch background.
I also felt that the face-to-face appearance of Grand Duke Mirendorva had a small but similar part to King Levios. Considering the blood muscles, is that a natural degree?
Where the Grand Duke left completely and the attention from his surroundings was weakened, he was gently slapped on the hips, pounding.
"Will."
"What do you say?
I keep my face close to Plume to talk quietly. Nature, your body gets closer too.
We have to show her the friendly appeal around so she doesn't get bad bugs. It's an insect repellent, Qualdenze.
"Yeah."
Plume with a grin. Apparently my response was a passing score from the outside, good, good.
"Right."
There are few words to exchange. Some nobles still spy on this one, so I couldn't get a very overt general review. Besides, interactions that don't rely on words make sense create an intimate atmosphere and boil your mind.
I've always wanted to flirt with Plume if I could, but that's not how it works. I'm running out of schedules today.
As if we had shown each other, a civilian attached to my father comes under me.
Once I say goodbye to Plume here, the next thing I see is a night club. She will come to the Exchange with her and hold talks with the aristocrats outside the faction.
I blocked the words of a civilian with my palm and said goodbye to Plume.
Okay, second round of fun fun events?
"My lady, I'm ready for a meeting with the Atelahans. My husband is here for you. Please move to the castle."
