Chapter 6, Episode 32 [Tongue Warfare] Part 4

"Really? Now, before you begin the interrogation...... first of all, because of the unfortunate mistakes that have taken place with the Earl of Salzberg family, this time it has become a matter of trouble for all of you, and even for me, I will not endure the shame. I would like to take this opportunity to express my deep apologies to all of you."

With that said, Ryo Jin slowly bows his head to the aristocrats sitting in front of him with a strange look on his face.

Break your body while turning your left hand behind your hips while placing your right hand around the umbilical area. That is the method used in the court of the Kingdom of Roselia.

At the same time that the work is perfectly done, there is a real style that goes hand in hand with the characteristic Rin of man who mended the martial arts.

True, it can be described as a special winning attitude.

But the surrounding reaction to such bright truths remained unchanged.

No, it made a difference, to be exact. But for the worse.

The colour of superiority and contempt floats in the faces of the nobles who were turning their hostile gaze.

If they had, it would have seemed that the uprooted man who had been wretched had appeared to have badly "done it" after being summoned by the House of Lords.

What emotions are stronger to say now than to praise them for their extraordinary attitude.

But Liang Zhen doesn't want to go bad on the nobles either.

When he woke up with a gentle body, Ryo Jin turned his gaze to Count Eisenbach, who would sit next to the Marquis of Halcyon.

"Above all, I sincerely apologize to Count Eisenbach, a heavy town in this country and vice-president of the House of Lords, who keeps us busy every day, for this time."

The moment that word is released, the air of the courtroom pins.

It's not that Ryo's true attitude was disrespectful or improper.

At least, as a person on the side to be questioned, I'm sure it's an attitude that can make a point.

But the question is, who did Liang Zhen say words of thanks and apologies to?

(What...)

(Is that guy out of his mind?

The gaze that was directed at Ryo Trun mixes confusion with fear of unknown beings.

A slight whisper of silence boiled from among the nobles.

That would be natural, too.

In any case, he flatly ignored the Marquis Halcyon, who was supposed to be the supreme power in this House of Lords, and showed his words of apology to Count Eisenbach, who was supposed to be second in line.

That would be like keeping the president of a country in front of you and bowing your head before the vice president.

Indeed, there can be a mistake between Count Eisenbach and the Marquis of Halcyon.

Photography and other technologies do not exist in the Earth world, because there are limited means for people who have never actually met each other to know their faces beforehand.

If so, would it be enough to make the painter paint a portrait?

But naturally, no matter how good the painting is, it's different from the picture.

It could change, even due to the painter's arms.

In that sense, no matter how much attention is paid in advance, mistakes and differences can occur.

But Ryo Jin couldn't have been more mistaken or merely ignorant than he was clamoring Count Eisenbach with the vice dean of the House of Lords.

When that happens, all the implications change.

(I deliberately ignored the presence of the Marquis by bowing my head toward me. This man openly proclaimed himself to the power of the fold, even in the Kingdom of Roselia. Turning to the Marquis Halcyon family, head of the House of Lords and prestigious nobleman of this Kingdom of Roselia, he said that he is worthless if he is not interested, such as you...)

Earl Eisenbach had accurately read Ryo's true intentions, which he showed first by bowing his head to himself.

That is the greatest insult and clear provocation unleashed against the powerful Marquis of Halcyon.

No, it can even be described as an act of no wonder, not as a provocation, but as a declaration of war in an aristocratic society.

And there is no nobility who fails to understand such a bright and true intention.

Count Eisebach asks quickly for the complexion of the Marquis Halcyon sitting on his right hand side.

In its eyes is the face stained bright red with the shame and anger of the Marquis Halcyon.

Blood vessels appeared on his temples, his hands shaking blubberly, firmly gripped.

(Naturally if you are publicly insulted by a lowly grown-up and his opponent who has been making a scattered fool of you...?)

Being a nobleman hates being crushed or his family name defiled more than anything.

That is not uncommon to become a duel out of business simply because of such trivial things as incorrect greeting order, and in some cases it can develop into a battle involving factions.

In fact, about half of the cases dealt with by the House of Lords are related to the face and pride of such aristocrats.

If you try to be noble, your family name is heavier than your life.

And among those aristocrats, the Marquis Halcyon was a person who cared particularly about his family name and character.

Indeed, since the territory to be ruled is not so great, economic and military power is not so great.

Among the nobles who form the aristocracy, there are many human beings who are mending vaster lands than the Marquis of Halcyon.

But it can be said that the influence within the royal palace held by the Marquis of Halcyon, who for generations has held the status of head of the House of Lords, is just immense.

Even kings who are supposed to be absolutely powerful need to be taken into account.

Everyone has shown respect for the Marquis, he has drowned his head, and the Marquis himself has recognized it for granted. Earlier, until Ryo Shiba opened her mouth... ha.

How is it in the chest?

Originally the Marquis of Halcyon himself is not a patient character, nor a tolerant person.

Regardless of your ability to preside over the House of Lords, I just said that you are in line personally.

At the very least, I'm sure he's not the kind of person who can be insulted and flushed flat by the young creation of the upbringing.

If it was meant to be, there's no wonder you kicked down a chair and yelled at him.

Still, I would say that the Marquis of Halcyon keeps calm just because he doesn't expose his anger.

(I'm sure you're driven by so much anger that your bowels boil back...)

It is certain that Ryo Mitsuzai's true attitude, according to the common sense of the nobility, is regarded as an act of provocation.

But it is never a good idea for the Marquis of Halcyon to show an attitude that roughs up his voice in this interrogation setting either.

The intentions contained in Ryo True's attitude are obvious, but formal courtesies are observed.

Indeed, it takes the form of ignoring the Marquis Halcyon, but it would be more difficult to pursue it if it were claimed that the Marquis did not know that he was in a row than he himself did not name it in the first place.

If the Marquis Halcyon is to blame for his disrespect, he will need to prove that Ryo Shiba knows in advance that he is here.

(I can also blame you for not knowing the face of Marquis Halcyon, a leading nobleman...)

Count Eisenbach stares at the man with a soft grin in front of him.

The aristocracy assigned within the Kingdom of Roselia is close to a thousand in size. That number will swell even further if we include the chivalry class.

Honestly, there's no way I can identify all those faces.

What happens if you ask someone else to do something you can't do.

In some cases, the Marquis of Halcyon may claim to have tried to fall on himself, etc.

Because we know that, the Marquis of Halcyon also keeps silence.

(It would certainly be effective. However, if you are a normal aristocrat, you will not take such an option first… it is a means of making a difference, but therefore the connection next to the aristocrat society is thin. But I'm talking about this guy... Come on, let's talk about our nonsense...)

That would significantly harm the authority of the House of Lords.

Especially scary is that the series of stories leaks to the outside world because of some kind of detachment.

Indeed, in an aristocratic society, a man named Ryo Mitsujima can be described as a heretic.

At least not one of the aristocrats who is in the queue for this occasion has a fondness for the Baron Goshiba family.

But it is also true that he has a high reputation as a [hero of the Redemption] in the alley.

Even the notoriety of saying [The Devil of Iraklion] has now begun to have implications closer to fear than to say repentance.

Trying to fall into such a hero and so on doesn't mean that the world will listen to you even if you're wrong.

(Of course, there will be no leakage of events on this occasion. But......)

Only the nobles in the House of Lords and the knights of security belong to the House of Lords are present here.

Normally, whatever happens in this setting, I don't have to worry about leaking it to the public.

That said, the more information you want to hide, the more it leaks from nowhere.

It is only a lower measure to ride the true provocation of Ryo Michizai, than one possibility cannot be abandoned in ten thousand.

(But it is also certain that the Marquis will not face him as he is... if...)

It is a bad idea to tell the Marquis himself from his own mouth, the supreme power in this place, that he is present.

Then no matter how powerful you are, from the sight of you, you look like a fool who can't remember your name.

It's like acknowledging that you're a tiny person who gets forgotten by others.

And that would demean the power of the Marquis of Halcyon.

Beyond that, there was only one option left.

It is the colour of perplexity that floats in the face of Count Eisenbach.

If you put it in his shoes, you'd feel exactly like you've been pulled off the poverty lottery.

But the only way to get this place round is through Count Eisenbach, who was truly spoken to.

Deciding to do so, Count Eisenbach slowly rose out of his chair and opened his mouth.
