The Marquis' Daughter Acts As A Pawn

Seventeen stories: Red roses bloom in everlasting darkness

Dark skies without the moon.

That's creepy as everlasting darkness that goes on forever with some tranquillity in the church.

Only his own footsteps echo in the hallway without even a sign of a person.

This is a forbidden area within the church.

It is a place where only a limited number of people are allowed to enter.

It is not a sanctuary or anything like that.

A place for those deeply involved in the back of the Wang Du Church, hence the forbidden area (...).

Mikhail takes the rosary on his neck.

Exquisite and beautiful rosary made of silver and crystals.

It is the culmination of the priesthood of the King's Capital Church for generations - it has been inherited by the First Father, making a divine impression on what he sees. Inheriting the rosary is a testament to the apostolic fidelity to Ruwell, the goddess of purity.

But for Mikhail, it was proof of his way of life.

(What is an honest, believer-exemplary and guided being, makes me laugh. I don't care about this stuff with money. It's a time when even a man's life can be bought with gold, even the seat of God's Apostle can be bought with gold. Phew, phew, you think someone like me is honest? What a good world)

Whoever was not born into a noble man must stand on his own.

Born to four men of lower nobility on the verge of falling, Mikhail is of course no exception.

Mikhail had a day of humiliation when he was thrown into church early after welcoming a quasi adult.

An aristocratic warrant to take a key position with a wealth of donations, a civilian admired and revered by his followers, all looked down on Michaels. Even the donation, if only we had the money, we could have looked down on them.

Michael was able to become quite a priest of aristocratic origin.

But both priests of aristocratic origin and civilian priests continue to be heterogeneous in the Wang Du Church as incompatible beings.

But a turning point comes to Michael.

Meet the Duke of James McMillan.

Mikhail emerged instantly after getting his support.

It was pleasant for those who had looked down on themselves before to see gold and change their attitude.

In just five years Michaels was able to ascend to the status of the youngest First Father.

Using the status of Mikhail, the Duke of Macmillan formed a giant faction called the Church Church, which brought together the nobles who had previously been anti-kings and those whose eyes were dazzled by gold.

But Michaels is not interested in the noble faction of church denominations, etc.

What attracts Mikhail's interest is seeing gold and people drown in greed.

Behind the forbidden area.

Michael arrived in front of a heavy black door, a destination.

I am being summoned by the Duke of McMillan today.

Michael thinks the Duke shouldn't know there was a black cat intruder.

If he finds out he couldn't dispose of the intruder, he might be stripped of his current status.

Michaels knew very well that it was easy to get status with gold, but it was easy to lose it without money. Because so were those whom I kicked down.

From the moment you get status or power, it's what you lose. That makes it horrible.

Something powerful but vague and easily intoxicating people - yes, Michaels recognizes.

When I never knocked on the door to my will, I heard the Duke of McMillan say, "Let me in".

"Excuse me, sir."

Hide your inner rush and proceed to the back of the black door.

There were already three figures in the room where the decorative furniture was located, which at first glance could be seen as the finest.

The first is the Duke of McMillan.

A grey-haired, brown-haired man, he unleashes an intimidating presence characteristic of the aristocracy.

He's also famous as a ruthless man who trumps relentlessly if he can't use it, even on his side.

It was this man who devised and executed the sale of absolution marks in Wang Du Church, his noble counterpart Sabato, etc.

Michael thinks so in both good and bad ways when he's an ambitious, truly aristocratic man.

The second is Queen Bianca, who has been in and out of Wangdu Church for several months now.

She is an arrogant and vain self-respecting woman on the street rumored to be an arrogant pet princess, but only a good wingspan makes her now the biggest supporter of Wang Metropolitan Church. The funds should have been released from the treasury.

Now that she has lost her love from the king, she seems to have received a certain amount from the king.

But they are very dissatisfied with the current situation because where they were spoiled they used gold like hot water... what a stupid woman they don't understand how much mercy they are given.

They've been making a leap lately to make their own son king... but it was a story that had nothing to do with Michaels.

The third one was - the first young woman I saw.

He is wearing a black mourning garment and the occasional deep red eyes peeking from the black veil exude the luster of an invisible woman.

Michael thought it was a treacherous beauty.

(Not a good face for church for a long time, including myself)

When Michael is fascinated by a mourning woman, the woman spins a glossy voice.

"Nice to meet you, Father First, Lord Michael. My name is Cardia Remington, former Baroness of Remington. This time, I'm going to be one of your lords. Nice to meet you."

Baroness Remington - Michael remembers that she was a rumored woman in the social world a few years ago.

He ran away from the Count Wyler family of his parents, who had a succession dispute, to the church, but a few years later, he became the second wife of a second-round, separated baron.

At the time, I was looking for a legacy, a romantic marriage with a difference in age. It was a lot of funny rumors. Last year, a year and a half after his marriage, the baron died and the governor was taken over by his ex-wife's son, apparently.

Whatever the truth was, Mikhail had nothing to do with it.

The stupid golden bird showed up again... that's all.

"Cardia is a friend of mine. He's been recommending Douglas to the king for a long time. And they're going to give us financial aid for Sabato!

Bianca's delightful high voice echoes.

I guess I'm inflating my expectations that my money will increase due to the financial assistance of the former Baroness Cardia.

I guess the former Baroness Remington will also be delayed in enjoying herself with her husband's legacy.

(What an ugly bunch of women)

Michael threw up inside.

"I prefer watching to participating. So I will spare no financial assistance... I hope for a pleasant show, Lord Michael"

"I'm in awe"

For a moment I trembled my spine in the deep red eyes of the Baroness before Remington, but Michael concluded that it was her fault.

"Michael, there's nothing else I called you this time, on Sabato and the absolution mark"

At last, Mikhail finds herself here, and turns to the Duke of McMillan, pretending to be calm.

"Yes, what is it"

(It's all right, the intruder's fabrication of evidence and the stopping of mercenaries are perfect, the Duke shouldn't know)

"The absolution and savato have become a valuable financial resource for the Church. So I'm going to leave those commands to Michaels."

"Are you at my disposal!?

"It's not just a situation where I can stay in Wang Du Church... I plan to get busier and busier in the future. I would therefore ask someone who is faithfully putting together the Wang Du Church reflecting my will."

"I'll take it. But I didn't know the Duke would be busier than he is now... is there anything"

"Hehe, Douglas is ready to be king! Now the Mother of the Nation will be me, not that little country's iron masked woman."

"My daughter's engagement to the First Prince has been investigated. It will be presented publicly at the Knights Medal Awards Ceremony and Night Club, soon to be held at the Royal Palace… Then Julianna and I will marry and become the hindsight of the First Prince and have a coup. This country will change dramatically."

"I didn't think it was going to be such a pleasure. Hehe, I'm looking forward to it."

"We can help you with a slight force. But when it comes to Miss Julianna, can she be incorporated into the Church Church, the young lady of the Royalist Lewis family?"

Michael knew the Duke of McMillan was obsessed with the Lewis family warrant, so I'm not going to say anything wild about marriage anyway, but I want to avoid church aristocracy being crushed.

"That doesn't go beyond worrying. The Lewis family has been sneaking me in for a long time... long enough to know where that man is going. And I've been trying to make Julianna hate her father and her house since she was a little girl... no need to worry."

"I apologize for making such a stupid inquiry"

"I don't mind. Then we'll renew Cardia's new contract and Mikhail's contract."

What was offered was two contracts.

I gave one to the former Baroness of Remington and placed the other on my own.

The contents of the contract are that Sabato and the exemption sale are left to Michael - the Duke is preventing betrayal by making them write the contract and recognize each other as accomplices.

Sign without hesitation and give it to the Duke of McMillan.

Looking next door, the former Baroness of Remington also wrote her name as exposing herself to the contract.

When the contract was completed, the Duke of McMillan called the maid who had kept her waiting in a separate room and had her bring the wine.

Pour the wine into four glasses without one cloud and hand it over.

The Duke of McMillan raises a glass.

"Revolution to the Kingdom of Rolands. - Cheers."

"" Cheers ""

Bring wine to your mouth without hesitation.

Now we are accomplices again.

I don't know what's going to happen to this country in the near future, but--

Ruwell, the goddess of purity, will smile at us with the shield behind the empire.

Mikhail was intoxicated by the future of King's Capital Church with a cunning grin.
