City of Witches 1030

Chapter 1030 – #246_Count Cagliostro (4)

#1024

One.
There are things that Siwoo has learned through the incident.
The more bad things happen, the more you have to take a breath and cool down.

After Count Cagliostro’s Storm Declaration, he fell in love with his Master.

After that, I remained alone in the office and calmly looked at the draft of Dandelion left by the Count.

1) I would like to write and distribute the article in the 442nd issue of this magazine as follows.

2) Headline subheading proposal 1, ‘Baron Shin Si-woo’s scandal resurfaced again, the forbidden black-and-white scandal that blossomed in Hexsenacht’ / Headline subheading proposal 2 ‘Demonic Baron, Shin Si-woo and his collusion on the public bed’

3) Text.

Another fact was additionally revealed regarding the personal affairs of Baron Shin Si-woo (currently the head of the Hesed Society), who burned Gehenna every day with a hot topic.

Baron Shin Si-woo, who is known to be officially dating at least six people through investigative reports by the editorial staff over and over again.

His women’s history, which included Gehenna’s leading archwitches and, shockingly, apprentice witches, raised eyebrows from many.

In addition, since Baron Shin Si-woo opened the society and claimed to be the head of it, some speculated that the suspicions surrounding him so far may be a calculated act to smooth the academic and financial foundation of the newly born Hesed Society.

However, according to various evidence and circumstances attached in addition to the report submitted to this paper, it is shockingly revealed that the reason for Baron Shin Si-woo’s frequent trips to the present world was none other than his public lover(s), predicting a series of blues in the witch society. There is.

In the meantime, Baron Shin Si-woo has built up fame and notoriety at the same time by causing gossip without a break, but he has completely changed his mind without any explanation or official expression of intention, or by creating another topic and covering it up.

However, this suspicion is directly related to the Gehenna security issue in a rapidly changing situation, so a correct explanation is required.

How far will the endless runaway of the young witch, who is incompetent, continue?

Baron Shin Si-woo’s public lovers are illuminated in detail in this issue along with photos exclusively obtained by the author (*Kwon Joong appendix, limited to subscribers of the Premium Executive Edition or higher).

(Abbreviation)

4) Please adopt the headline.

The above is part of the contents of the draft handed over by Count Cagliostro.

First of all, the photos given only to subscribers of the Premium Executive Edition or higher were, in every respect, no different from the third-rate paparazzi’s B-cuts.

I couldn’t tell who was who because it was taken from so far away.

It was at least recognizable because Siwoo was tall and had a male skeleton.
Even in the contents of the article, Dorothy and Linnaeus were not directly mentioned.

“I seem to know everything anyway…”

But it’s too early to be relieved.

Even when Dandelion’s first revelation came out, it was an article that seemed to have been gathering information from a long time ago.
I just got the timing right and it exploded.

Perhaps this time too.

However, if you expose all your weaknesses at once, there will be nothing more to eat, so I should say that you eat while controlling the water level.

The collusion between power and gossip is not unfamiliar to me because I saw it a lot when I lived in Korea.

Considering that the first draft, which has not yet undergone proofreading, is with Count Cagliostro, there is a higher probability that the relationship will be a tighter one than you think.

There are also some unfortunate aspects.

“No, are you going this far just to eat one of these?”

The Chesed Society clearly has a bright future, but to think that a person like the head of the Emerald Tablet is paying so much attention and trying to rob it.

Anyway, apart from the resentment, it was correct that I was stabbed at my weakness.

Siwoo’s initially planned steps are as follows.

Establishment of the Chesed Society.
Development.
Elevate the position of the society through the establishment of various partnerships.
Elevation of the president’s right to speak.
Recently, Dorothy and Rinne are invited to jump on the bandwagon of Gehenna, which is spreading a policy of appeasement for the outcasts.

Judging by Gehenna’s public aversion, this was not a foolish plan.

In the first place, the two of them had already stole an absurd amount of top-secret information while leaving Hexennacht and provided it to Gehenna.

Under the guarantee of Duke Tiphareth’s identity, he made a revolutionary feat even during the ‘flood’, and even risked his life several times to complete the mission in the operation to obtain the lock gate.

Things were good enough for her to work her miracles if she got it right.

However, if the Dandelion revelation article comes out first, the timing is completely twisted.

Let’s put aside the criticism that will be pouring down on Siwoo right now. I can afford it anyway.
However, the situation where Rinne and Dorothy can set foot in Gehenna becomes distant.

Half of the purpose of the establishment of the society is being ripped off in its entirety.

So what are the count’s requirements?
About this, I had a brief consultation with my eldest mother-in-law.

‘40% of the society’s voting rights? There is no such thing as strength. Fortunately, the support information remains the same. It’s at least condescending, though.’

Asking for direct voting rights in addition to hiring a high-ranking member of the society was a request that even Albireo, famous for being ruthless in business, would stick out his tongue.

You may wonder if it’s less than half, but it’s not that simple.

As planned, when the society has its assortment, Siwoo, the president of the society, has about 40% of the voting rights.
I couldn’t bring 50% because I had to transfer some of my voting rights to academic societies that I had already embraced or those that would be included in the future.

In other words, it means that in the future, you will have to compete with Castle for voting rights with a 40-40 stake.

It is obvious who has the advantage.

There must already be a person from the Emerald Tablet in each corner of the society, and the society, which has already eaten about half of it, will only be coaxed by Castle when it grows up.

Over time, the title of President Shin Si-woo will become an honorary position only on the surface, and in reality it will become a scarecrow.
The Chesed Society will in effect be the Shidabari of the Emerald Tablet.

‘I can not help it.’

Albireo didn’t scold Siu’s relationship again.
Instead, he calmly pointed out the current situation.

‘First of all, we have to accept Castle’s request. If the disclosure breaks out, Siwoo-kun’s goal will not be achieved, and the very existence of the society will be dealt a serious blow.’

‘Whether to dilute the stake in the Emerald Tablet by increasing the size of the society and increasing the voting rights in the future, or whether Siwoo-kun gets the remaining 20% ​​of the voting rights through amazing conciliation… That’s something to think about at that time, and I need to buy some time first.’

Neither way was a clear answer.

If the voting rights are increased, the voices of the members with existing voting rights will become smaller, so you should expect a backlash.
The more promising the future of the Chesed Society is, the more it will not be easy to bring 20% ​​through appeasement.

“It’s scary, really…”

Either way it’s a dilemma.

‘It’s an outsider. It’s called karma.’

Even Albireo, the master of business management, raised his hands without finding a sharp breakthrough, so can he say anything to him?
Only cigarette butts piled up on the desk.

Anyway, I have a hunch that I’m missing something…

“Ah.”

It reminds me of ‘Count Cagliostro Lilith Seol’ and ‘The Ring’, which I had forgotten for a while because the threat was too strong.

Count Cagliostro was wearing a ring.
And suddenly, seeing the ring, Siwoo felt a strange sense of incongruity.

It’s really strange.
At most, the connection between Siu and the ring is the ring he received as a guarantee of his status when he first came out of Gehenna.

Seeing that, Sharon mistook Siu for the collector of Count Jemonai, and he said he was trembling.

“Strange.”

Even a witch who transcends human limits is a woman.
It is not particularly strange to dress a beautiful woman in an elegant dress and adorn herself with precious metals.

Even at an auction right now, jewelry such as earrings and necklaces are being traded at a price far beyond Siwoo’s point of view of the common people.

However, there is an exception clause for ‘Ring’.
As much as Gehenna enjoys the unique culture of witches, it has its own fashion.

Rings in such a fashion are not very favored accessories.

First of all, there are many unique artifacts among rings.

As she is a witch who lives with magic, trying to decorate her with artifacts is not a very attractive option.

In addition, there are no wedding rings because the concept of marriage is very thin, and therefore, most rings do not play the role of ornaments, but as a ‘family seal’.

Like the occasional mother-in-law wearing a ring while doing office work.

However, as long as Count Cagliostro is wearing the ring, it is within the scope of understanding.
It didn’t look like a signet ring, but maybe it’s a personal preference?

“That makes it even weirder.”

This is the part where you feel a slight sense of incongruity and hang on.

A personal taste that goes against the trends.
There may be enough.

If it were Count Cagliostro, who was about the size of the president of a super-giant academic society, he wouldn’t be at the level of dressing up while paying attention to others.

But…

Siwoo brought out the image of Count Cagliostro in her head.

Blonde hair that had been painstakingly curled up, and blue eyes that were darker than crystal.
Conquest of the witch, carefully dressed to match.
A necklace unique to the Emerald Tablet, made using sophisticated silversmithing techniques.

It’s perfectly harmonized so far.
She was as assertive as Siu-in, having also studied Gehenna fashion styles for the Charisma Project.

And a tacky ring that contrasts with all of the above.

So it was snowing.
If you were going to choose a ring based on personal preference, wouldn’t it have been decorated to fit your overall style?

It is difficult to figure out the exact elements because the necklace worn by the Count had various detection-disrupting magics on it…

“Then the ring is probably also an artifact…”

I was inadvertently thinking of a match that would go well with that rustic ring.

At that moment, a thunderbolt of realization hit Siu’s head.

Siwoo obviously has no ties to the ring itself.

However, there is a necklace that makes a perfect set with the ring in the unconsciously restored memory.

Shiu wore it to participate in the banquet of the exploits at the time of being kidnapped by Lydia in Hexsenacht.
‘Bringing Game’ that made Siwoo Sisuni.

It is an artifact for camouflage.
