Chapter 145 – Duties of Nobility – Part 3
He nodded at the news from Müller.
“It’s a large-scale monster.”
Can you get there with that medicine?
That’s a bit risky
Isabel also nodded at my words.
“No details have been revealed yet. In particular, it is said that a wave of strange magical power continues to spread around the monster, and it seems that the wave has the effect of attracting the monster.”
That property is the effect that Serene discovered in the powder.
The fact that they were displayed at the same time means that their research was conducted, or is it a coincidence? It is essential to prepare for the worst.
“What else?”
“It is said that Triana-sama subdued a large-scale monster and captured it as it is.”
“Hmm.”
I guess I fought better than I thought.
He fulfilled his noble duty. Deserves praise
“First of all, the measured value itself is a large-class monster…”
“No, but the large class is the large class. If they are in the same weight class, the difference in magic attribute there is meaningless.”
This is something Triana fought well for.
At my words, Isabelle smiled slightly and bowed her head.
“Anyway, apart from the large-scale monsters we captured, what happened to the red blooded ones?”
“I put him in jail and he is being interrogated now. I’m digging up the information I already know. And one thing is for sure.”
Isabelle stopped her and came close to her and whispered in her ear.
“It’s clear that Baron Larson is involved.”
The corners of his mouth twisted at those words.
Also.
“Then we can’t prolong the time either.”
So far, the flow of my first Yeongjijeon has been dragging time no matter how I look at it.
It could be because of my immaturity, but this was partly due to Baron Aslan’s procrastination.
Maybe he’s plotting something, or maybe Baron Aslan never fought a proper war.
Therefore.
“I’ll make a surprise attack at night.”
“… Are you okay?”
“Of course.”
It’s not that I don’t use surprise attacks because it’s territory war.
People here are not sick.
It’s just that it’s not honorable.
But the problem is when you do that and lose.
“If you win, that’s it.”
“Yes!”
I got up from my seat.
The sun is slowly setting.
No problem.
Not honorable?
Justification?
One of the nobles held the evidence of holding hands with red blood.
A powder that attracts monsters.
A large-scale monster that nullifies mana.
Three Kingdoms period of history.
Three Kingdoms of China.
Warring States period of Japan.
If a history subject is created and a record of this era is left, a similar name will be written.
And I open that door.

“Miss Triana! You are wonderful!”
“You will be praised by everyone for fulfilling your duties as a nobleman!”
“… Thank you.”
Müller’s town.
There, at the praising voices around her, Triana lowered her head with a small smile.
“I will look around again.”
“It’s enough to let the inferiors do that! More than that, Triana-sama! Now, Triana-sama is also a great adult. Thinking about getting married now…”
Triana’s eyebrows twitched at the man’s words.
“This is an important time. I don’t think this is the right time to look at something else.”
“Kuh, kuhm. That’s right. I exaggerated. Sorry.”
“Then I’m done.”
She parted ways with those clinging around, Triana sighed, no. She resisted getting nauseous.
All the bastards clinging now are disgusting bastards.
They were the ones who took advantage when the Müller family was confused by internal strife, and just like Sasha’s words, they were nothing more than parasites that ate flesh.
In addition, both this guy and that guy were all disgusting people who stayed neutral during the war with Franz and immediately attached themselves to Franz and maintained their lives.
Neither Franz’s owner nor Müller’s current owner are people who don’t like that type of person, so they’re not in a serious position right now, but they can’t cut their throats right away.
But Triana hadn’t forgotten.
Whenever even if not right away.
They won’t know they have a rotten rope hanging around their necks.
“I still don’t want to hear the woof-wow-wow. Don’t you see that they look like stupid dogs?”
“… Ugh!”
At the sudden sound of her voice, Triana immediately withdrew.
His eyes turned blue and he looked in the direction the sound was coming from.
“Whoops. You shouldn’t be too surprised. Yes. You are Müller’s only direct descendant, Triana?”
“Everything, why are you here?”
A woman in a man’s suit, holding a long pipe in her hand.
Alina Earthlane suddenly appeared.
“I don’t think your actions are very limited, are you?”
“Yeah, but.”
It’s not good for people like you to wander carelessly now that the lord is gone…
Triana swallowed her words that almost came out of her mind.
The background, the power you have.
There was a wall that no matter how talented you were, you could never break through.
Alina’s eyes darkened as she looked at Triana.
“Hmm. You have talent. If you train endlessly, you will probably be able to aim for the title of count.”
“I-really?!”
Apart from being surprised.
Alina Earthlane is often an object of admiration, especially among women from aristocratic families.
Triana Müller too has come to terms with her patriarchal father, but not without her longing for her various rumors about her.
Alina’s praise It was natural to be glad inside her young voice.
“Whoa. Just.”
Alina’s cigarette smoke wafted through the air.
“In order to break through the wall with individual talent, most of the cases cannot be reached even after a lifetime of effort. Talent, hard work, luck. A position that can only be reached with all of them. The moment you give up, that’s it, and it will take a lot of time for your lineage to break through that wall. That’s why many families manage their lineage through a long time, but there are many places that do not bloom and die.”
“But if there is a chance, I will never give up.”
“Whoops. It’s a good look.”
The pupil of Triana, who encountered her own. Alina gave a satisfied smile at her determination.
“Did you see the monster?”
“Yes.”
Alina’s eyes looked in the direction of the monster.
“Unpleasant magic power. Power to be nullified. That’s what I heard Rather, it is more than that.”
“A quasi-noble-level magical power holder offered himself as a sacrifice.”
“Indeed. Does the stronger the victim become, the stronger one comes out?”
“It’s difficult to say for sure. In addition, it seems that this time, not only medicine, but also other medicines were used.”
“Oh, you mean that powder? Hmm. So you’re not dead yet?”
“It’s hard to say anything once you see that it’s still fine, unlike then.”
Conversing with Triana, Alina frowned at her.
“Not very good news anyway.”
“Is that so?”
Is it that bad news?
Alina answered Triana’s question.
“What if the enemy captures the nobles, drugs them, and throws them away?”
“That, I hope. Please do something like that… ?”
In Alina’s words…
Triana was speechless.
“Just thinking about it right now doesn’t come to mind. If that drug is mass-produced, I think I’ll come up with a more brutal method.”
“… It’s dangerous.”
“It’s not dangerous.”
Therefore.
It’s a good chance.
Triana’s eyes shone.
“I’ll have to contact Count Franz and Count Borain as well.”
“This is true. A war is about to begin.”
I got a connection with Baron Larson.
In fact, they are also aware of the commotion that has occurred in the land, and they know that it started with powdered medicine.
“Then it wouldn’t be bad to go to Georg’s Basin even now.”
“Are you talking to the lord? But we cannot empty this castle now.”
In fact, the current highest power is oneself.
If Baron Larson, including Red Blood and Purple, attacks in desperation, there is no one to stop it.
Alina smiled at Triana’s words.
“I will keep my way.”
“… Are you okay?”
Alina Earth Lane is currently staying as her guest.
Her departure also affects the position of her family, the Duke of Earthlane.
“It’s a family that came out halfway anyway. Maybe it’s because I’ve already had several accidents, and the family doesn’t care too much about it.”
“But…”
“If it’s really about Baron Larson, we can’t sit still.”
Red blood.
A slang term used to refer to ordinary people without magical powers, and a word used to refer to terrorists.
Even if it’s a relationship that cooperates with that red blood, it’s not a big mistake. There were no families that cooperated in the previous war.
But there is one problem here.
“No human experimentation.”
Alina Earthlane’s mouth twisted.
“It is the duty of nobles to govern the commoners of their territory. Protecting the people is also the duty of nobles, and the meaning of the royal family.”
Which way.
With the strong identity of a royal knight, she asserted that.
“I wish I could try my hand at the royal family before the nobles of the south step forward, but that would be difficult.”
Northern and eastern.
It’s not just the South that’s confused.
“Then what would you rather be stuck on like this?”
Triana’s words are not wrong.
If Ali or she represents the position of the royal family, no force will be more than welcome to grow in power.
But Alina shrugged her shoulders and smiled at her words.
“I can’t work forever. Age too… Big hum. Anyway, now that she’s retired, I’ve been thinking about becoming her wife, but she’s going to be Lee Wang’s wife. She should be the woman of a man who is the ruler of the South.”
“That, that’s right.”
Triana couldn’t bear to speak at Alina’s strangely proud words.
“You have to serve them well!”
“… It’s too much.”
Avoiding Niña’s resentful gaze, Triana hurried to the plains of Georg’s Basin.
He’s a difficult person to handle…
