Chapter 148 – Aslan’s Cleanup
* * *
“Im here!”
Zeke has arrived.
“Go to work.”
“Kuk!”
Was immediately assigned to work.
Sorry. I am also working.
* * *
It was the change of the owner of the estate.
At Müller, it was done by my father and older brother, but now it has become my job.
Unlike Müller’s time, Aslan killed the baron himself, so it was ambiguous to place those who inherited his lineage in important positions.
That’s why I said that I would send the people who didn’t like it.
“Save me! I will work with the determination to die!”
The collateral fell to his knees and bowed his head, shouting.
No, it’s really just sending them away.
Franz and Borin said they would let us go down south because there is no influence from us.
“Please!”
Um, what
If you cling to it like that, you might throw it away.
So, including them, we are working on it.
“Lord.”
“Well?”
While I was doing my business, Isabelle showed up.
She, too, came slowly into this castle, taking her prisoners.
The prisoners have now been released again.
Lack of people
Even if the investigation of that large-scale monster in Muller was done by a person from the research center, there were not enough middle management positions to manage it.
So I had to use Aslan’s people as well.
In this world, knights are different from thugs called knights in the Middle Ages… , No, it’s not that there aren’t articles like that, but it can be used as a civil servant.
“The protests of merchants are severe. Here, a report on them.”
I looked at the papers Isabelle had brought with me.
After the owner changed, the castle gate was closed.
A merchant who entered the castle.
A merchant who needs to enter the castle.
A merchant who has to come out to the castle.
All of them tied up
The protests that resulted came up here.
“Who uploaded it?”
“It is a civil servant. Definitely a name…”
“Put him in jail.”
If he is not properly aware of the current situation, he will be of no use in the future.
Up to me… No, the fact that he came up to Isabelle means he has the authority to do so, but the fact that he sent it up in the present situation must mean that he received it sweetly from the merchants.
“Throw away all the merchants who don’t listen.”
“What about the merchant of Barheun Kingdom?”
“Throw it in.”
The lord has changed.
But you can’t figure out the situation and install it?
“They are useless.”
“When protests come from the kingdom of Baheun…”
“I don’t know right now, and it doesn’t matter if I find out later.”
“All right. I will take action.”
At my words, Isabelle nodded her head.
There may be some disputes with that as an opportunity, but in a situation where the owner of the territory has changed, it becomes an opportunity to know the direction of movement for future trade according to the attitude of the other party.
In fact, for that purpose, he is also collecting data on the other nobles.
While watching our conversation, the vassal of the Aslan family who was working was scribbling papers with his face pressed against the desk.
Seeing that your complexion hasn’t been good since yesterday, you must have suffered from your usual workload.
“Do you want to rest?”
Spoke kindly.
If you want to rest, you can close your eyes for a few hours.
“No! You can still do it! We will do our best!”
Judging from his booming voice, I’m sure he can still do more.
She heard the voice and smiled contentedly.
They are also the talents of a city that trades with a country.
Because of the location, there are many people who can be useful anyway.
I said it was a week-long grace period, but I was half joking.
If I really cut it all out, I’ll die because I don’t have a managerial position.
“Yes. Tell me if you want to rest I’ll put your eyes on you.”
“Hee!”
At my words, the people around me started to work with shouts of joy.
Isabelle looks at it in amazement.
“Why?”
“… No.”
Chloe appeared as if exchanging words with Isabelle, who withdrew, unable to keep her mouth shut.
“Currently, we are thoroughly guarding the outer fortress.”
“Yes. Our soldier must protect the corner of the road unconditionally.”
“Yeah. And, fortunately for us, the list of suspects through reports from the people of Aslan, who are very cooperative.”
“Yes? Good thing. Because we have a lot of very close people. You don’t have to use unnecessary numbers.”
While saying that, I put the wads of papers Chloe handed over to me on the desk and looked around him.
Gulp.
I see a lot of people swallowing saliva.
The office was cramped. So many people are moving to work while using the conference room as their office.
Now is the time to show. You are ruling this land right.
Check everything, and punish those who commit crimes. Prizes for those who made the mark.
And that my orders to keep an eye on each other and capture those who are suspicious are being carried out.
In reality, it’s not as much as it appears.
Most of the paperwork is not required. But the appearance of receiving something like this must be important.
And there’s someone who actually made a suspicious report.
“… Here, a man named Tucson. You’re the one who posted the merchants’ complaint a while ago.”
“Is that so? So now…”
“Isabelle will be putting her in jail. It’s like taking a merchant’s bribe. You can close your eyes to some extent. But no smuggling.”
Eating too much is over the line.
How much did you eat?
“Seize and search, find evidence. And torture is permitted. However, the steps are weak. But.”
I paused for a moment and looked at the people working around me.
“If it is revealed that there is a close relationship with the red blood, throw in everyone around you. It doesn’t matter if I kill you.”
“All right.”
Chloe nodded his head.
I looked at the meeting room, where even the sound of paper turning was stopped.
I never thought I would do a reign of terror.
However, I thought it was essential to start normalization starting with city work right away, and I had to.
They unreasonably conquered Baron Aslan’s territory and took possession of it.
You can’t look down on the royal family just because they’re calm. This thing clearly crossed the line, and we had to start trading right away by returning Aslan’s functions to normal before any warnings came about.
That’s why we started this system.
People are grinding in real time, but in fact I am also very tired.
Through the window, the sun rises above the broken thing that can be seen from the huge castle overlooking the city.
It still retains its sun.
Currently, Aslan’s morning begins with two suns rising.
Truly a miracle of God.
Each of these actions is faith in me. Or fear, horror. Because it becomes an act of giving up and surrendering everything.
In other words, since the end of the war with magic power, I have been keeping the sun and doing business.
I’ll be tired
“Oh, and.”
“Yeah?”
I caught Chloe trying to get out.
If there is a punishment, there is a reward.
“We will give rewards all at once after giving them a certain period of time so that they are not identified.”
Of course, even so, it cannot be said that it is not completely specific, but since those who report together in such a place have no choice but to unite, a faction will eventually be formed.
Of course, you need to check thoroughly. This part was firmly known to his subordinates, including Zeke.
The person who reports it out of vain greed and puts a false name on it will come out unconditionally.
“Then let’s continue our business.”
“Yeah.”
Even if the owner changes, it quickly settles the public order and normalizes the city’s functions.
A day or two pass like that, and time flies.
* * *
Baron Athlone’s bedroom.
His taste still remains.
A famous sword hanging on the wall? Although all the ornaments that appear to have been sent to the warehouse.
I left the terrace open and prepared tea while enjoying the night breeze.
I owe Neria’s debt every time, but I can do it too.
‘Cause I’ve seen you several times
Roaring!
The place where the tea was brewed was surrounded by flames.
However, it maintains an appropriate temperature without any scorching spots.
Dalgrak!
Two teacups.
He placed it on the table and began pouring it carefully.
Squeak!
The sweet fragrance stimulates the tip of the nose, and before long it spreads throughout the room.
“How is it? I like this.”
When I opened my mouth, a voice came from the room where I was the only one.
“I was more surprised than I thought.”
A person appeared in the dark.
The person wrapped around his body in a black cloth looked at the car I was driving.
“A cold and heartless god. Cruel ghost. A monster that devours everything.”
Haha. Did rumors of me spread like that?”
I laughed at what he said.
What kind of three-headed and six-headed monster am I.
“If you think about what has happened so far, can’t you help that rumors spread?”
“Hoo.”
I thought about the man’s words for a moment.
What did I do
Did I even declare war first?
Did I surprise you first?
Did you clear out a family’s lineage?
You’re done.
“This is true. Shame on you.”
I just wanted to scold those who touched me.
How did you happen to come here?
He hesitated as if he was embarrassed by my words.
“That… Are you going to settle things down by saying that you wanted to scold me?”
“I just learned this way.”
There is still something awkward about common sense in this world.
Like the customs of a foreign country where immigrant Koreans have lived for over 20 years, but still do not understand.
So I just put into practice what I had learned from my father.
“If you touch it, you have to punish it.”
At my words, he kept his mouth shut.
He pointed to the chair in front of the table.
“Come, sit down.”
“… Excuse me.”
I also took a sip of tea while watching the people sitting quietly and silently.
As the sweet taste melts in your mouth.
“Yes. Are you the red blood that lingers on this land?”
“… Yes. Me, us.”
Aslan’s red blood.
It’s called Violet.
