The wise man returns

Winter was equally cold for everyone, but it was different for everyone to feel it long and short.

Among those who felt long winters, there was the Marquis of Tennessee.

He was completely buried in the social world after being humiliated for impersonating a pig naked.

The sin of wanting to unleash lust on the successor was heavy.

Not only did King Armando receive a complaint from the Second Age, but the Holy Father himself sent someone to blame the late Tennessee.

“How dare you try to insult the high priest of the Church? I will punish you for your sins. ”

The Marquis of Tennessee has given a considerable amount of territory to the country with heavy fines.

No nobleman said he would be the center of the kingdom anymore.

All he could do, given up by power and God, was get drunk and do drugs.

Marquis Tennessee spent a day in the depths of the mansion, coughing up liquor and drugs.

This winter must have been endless for him.

On the other hand, one of those who felt short of winter was able to identify the figures of Balin and the tower.

There were so many things that I couldn't even straighten them out.

You need to pay attention to the growth of your horse and the training of individuals and groups in order to operate your interests from other horse towers.

If I said it wasn't hard, it was a lie.

While his whole body was tired in real time with all sorts of work, Balin put all his effort into training.

In addition to piercing the hardships of eight classes, I had to pay attention to the craftsmanship and the training of the sword of all currents I had made earlier.

I was that desperate because I had experienced the power of my enemies.

First of all, Balin's goal was to penetrate eight classes of walls and use the sword of the Almighty to reach the intermediate level of Sword Express.

The current state of Balin is a layman who has not broken the ranks of Expert.

The sword and body were ready, but the overwhelming accomplishment of magic caught up with it.

I looked too high elsewhere and it caught my ankle of growth.

Fortunately, we were able to get help from Andropos and Palias.

“Here's what you should do. Silver balls.”

“If you have a hard time, will you fight me? Brother Balin.”

Solving difficult problems has been solved through the struggle with Palias with Andropos' advice and engraving it on his body.

Once the materials were available, Balin's accomplishments were truly overwhelming, but strangely, eight classes of walls were impenetrable no matter how hard they tried.

That said, there was definitely a lot to gain through this winter.

Enough time to take a few days off.

“Ahhhh...”

As soon as the teleport sorcery was activated, Valine sighed for a short time.

Where he is now is the land around Castle Rablanc received as territory.

It was originally Duke Santos' land, but it was inherited by Valine after his death.

“You've been alone for a long time. ”

Balin relaxes as she looks at a couple of the approaching wizards.

I was only out of the capital until the new year passed, and my whole body screamed.

He was here because he had some work to do.

“Welcome, my lord. ”

“I've been waiting. ”

The two wizards, who put Mana in here, bend politely.

Balin raises them and sees the wagon waiting outside the teleport facility.

It was a luxuriously matchless wagon, but there was nothing wrong with where the nobleman's symbol was supposed to be.

"Hmm…"

Having been busy with work, I couldn't even determine the family crest.

Millia had drawn a few symbols before, each time Balin had to struggle to endure the laughter.

As you head towards the wagon, an old man is waiting.

Born of a white beard, he introduced himself, baptizing as soon as he saw Balin.

“Nice to meet you. Earl Valine Theodore. I am Servant Fernando, who is in charge of the current Lord. ”

“I've heard stories about you. Sir Fernando, I'm always grateful. ”

Balin, in the wagon, sits Fernando next to him and departs the wagon.

As the wagon moves, the surrounding landscape begins to change at a rapid rate.

The majestic city and white-eyed nature blended together to create truly beautiful scenery.

Balin spits out admiration, looking at the landscape.

“Fantastic!”

“Winter's Lat and Castle are amazing. I think, but I dare say it's more beautiful than the capital. ”

The steward's words sounded arrogant, but he had no choice but to admit it when he looked out the window.

But instead of being mesmerized by the scenery, Balin asked Fernando face to face.

“I want to rest in that view like a chimney, but more than that, I want to talk about people. ”

“Ah… yes. Descend.”

Fernando notices the meaning of the horse and bows his head.

What Balin wanted was the approximate distribution and loyalty of employees, knights, and soldiers currently working in the territory.

Fernando gave the new owner the information he knew with all his heart.

“Duke Santos is currently hiring 30,000 infantry, 4,000 cavalry, 5,000 archers, and over a hundred wizards. They're all on re-contracts. ”

“Isn't that a lot of maintenance? What will happen to my liking as a newly elected noble? ”

“Nothing. There's a lot of net revenue in Lat and Castle back in the day. Favor... there's nothing in particular about hating the late Earl Valien, both an officer and a soldier. but not if they like it. ”

Apparently Duke Santos' henchmen regarded Balin as the savior who avenged him.

I was relieved to hear that.

Balin was then relaxed and looked out at the scenery.

Even after avenging Duke Santos and destroying Marquis Tennessee, Valine was involved.

Thanks to this, we didn't have to worry about the rebellion of the hypocrites at the beginning.

“But...”

However, Balin's expression was not very good.

He moves for Duke Santos and buys the favor of the Gaius.

That means the duc's allegiance to the duc's heirlooms is still quite deep.

‘It's not bad right now, but it's a problem later. ’

When I had to work on the pretenders later, I didn't want them to have the guts to get involved in the duc's will.

Getting their minds in advance was a hassle but one of the things I had to do.

Fortunately, Balin had one reliable man.

“But where are Duke Santos' family members now? ”

“Yes, my wife and I are staying at the Castle Rablanc. ”

“The annex... I see. ”

Balin nods and recalls information about Duke Santos' family members, which he had investigated beforehand.

Like a royal ruling the kingdom, his wife was also a man with a great background.

Is he in charge of the fleet that reaches the Karshan Kingdom as well as the Kardim Empire?

It appears that the marriage has benefited tremendously from trade routes through Castle Rablanc.

‘But not anymore. ’

Rablanc Castle became the richest land in the kingdom because it was connected to the Cadim Empire.

The trade route between the northern kingdoms and the Commonwealth of Kadim, the centre of which was Castle Rablanc, was able to develop like this.

‘Well, there's nothing to worry about for one woman. ’

Balin recalls an assessment of the former duchess in the preliminary data.

According to her, she was a common luxury lady herself.

While the duc was in the capital, he was enjoying and indulging in luxury. He did all kinds of things, but he had to find out more.

‘Let's listen to them and then decide whether to expel them or accept them. ’

Balin had hoped to leave the hat as it is, unless he was frantically concerned.

Throwing out the family of the former nobles is not only against the law of the kingdom, but also has a very high probability of adversely affecting the public opinion itself.

But if you can't help it, then the gears have to move.

In judging the scale, I was going to relocate entirely to the manager that Balin had recently entrusted with the operation.

“The new territorial nobles under the Royal Law said they were obliged to help the families of the old nobles with no discomfort in their lives, so I told them to leave it alone for now, but I hope there's nothing else wrong." ”

“No, of course not. Your Highness.”

Fernando nods politely.

Balin decided to trust him.

While you two were talking, the wagon entered the city of Lablanc.

As I entered the castle, I noticed the magnificent architecture.

“I see a lot of jewelry and precious metals. ”

Fernando nods and answers Balin's question.

“This is the center of the trade route, and gems are often used for decoration and decoration. You have to look fabulous to make a deal. ”

However, unlike the answer, the shape of the streets around the wagon was getting thinner as the wagon moved.

Fernando shakes his head at Balin, throwing suspicious eyes.

“That's what he wanted. I had no choice. ”

“Really? You didn't deliberately decide on something this cheap? ”

“I swear, absolutely not. At first, I tried to find a fine restaurant near the castle or the castle, but he roasted the barrels...”

After finishing speaking, the foam shaking its head must have been already suffering for several hours.

Fernando doesn't seem to be lying, since Valine knew him well enough to do this.

The wagon arrived at a shabby cafe.

Fernando glances at the sign and says to Balin,

“I'll be waiting at the stables, so when you're done...”

“No, you can go in first. because I'm going to slowly enter the Territory. ”

“... do as you will. ”

Balin looks over the view of the cafe while Fernando is driving the wagon with orders or disappearing.

Overall, it was a shabby cafe, but Balin thought it would fit well with the views of distant lakes and mountains.

“Let's see, you said you were here first... Ah. ”

Balin looks over the terrace, finds someone and opens his mouth.

At the same time, someone waved to this side.

“Balin! What a Balin! Over here! Over here! ”

“Father, I'm here. ”

The person who summoned Balin was surprisingly his father's wife Laden.

He was now the custodian of Castle Rablanc and the surrounding territories, instead of Valine, what should now be called the Laden Laborer.

“Yes, come on, sit down. It's almost lunchtime. Have you eaten? ”

“No. Can I get you to do something simple? ”

When Balin asked, Laden immediately raised his hand and ordered food.

The menu he ordered was fries with salad, sausage, and a glass of wine.

“Come on, let's go. ”

Laden, who received the food, smiled and encouraged Balin to eat.

Balin, who took a picture of the salad with a fork, said in a bad mood.

“Dad, I told you. My father says I can spend a little more... of that... luxury. ”

“Haha, you rascal. That's why you're doing it. ”

Laden, who made a furry smile, picked up some chips and sausages and asked.

Valine felt a tingling of affection for his sincerely delicious appearance.

“No, not like this... you know. Like a roasted calf or a goose liver...”

“Oh no, I'm done. I don't want to eat it because I feel it and I feel itchy! ”

“... Father. ”

Horses like this, but it is clear that the money Laden loves will be used to improve the livelihood of some poor families.

I thought I was good enough to leave this to Laden.

Thank you for reading. I think I have to run this far today. No, I think it was yesterday.

I pointed out that Leven's age setting seems too young... but Valine is also feeling strange there.

We need to see what the secret is.

And the army that defends the Wall... did anyone get the right answer... right?

It would be a shame to bet on the event. Heh heh.

We'll be sure to prepare for that next time! I'll see you guys tomorrow!

By the way, I think I can write four tomorrow. Heheh. You can count on it.

Oh, and I think some of the writers I see are looking at my work.

I would be delighted if you could leave me a comment. Kelocelock.

Plenty of shipping recommendations and love!
