Chapter 266 – Caravan – 1
“A caravan?”
Exchanges and trade with the Eastern Empire.
As part of that, the caravan is once a year. It is a huge event that can happen twice if conditions in the desert are good.
“Should I do well at a time like this? Or should I say I can’t help it?”
Even in the middle of a civil war, trade.
“I can’t help it. You can’t deny that the caravan that has already departed is in the midst of a civil war, right?”
“That’s right.”
He nodded at Count Harry’s words.
Even the money spent here is huge.
It’s already departing, and the benefit is big to reject the returning caravan.
What was Marquis Kilias thinking? He didn’t notice anything unusual when he looked at the papers.
“So what are you going to do? Even if there is a big benefit, you don’t have to do it in a chaotic situation like now.”
Perhaps this caravan is a great festival, rare in the devastated East.
Even in the desolate city of Kilias, it is rare that the entire city will be the target, and many merchants come to this city for this purpose.
It is also the only source of income for welcoming guests from outside.
And doing this, of course, consumes a lot of resources and manpower.
It is not an exaggeration to say that there is no talent to be dispatched here in a state where our people have occupied the inner castle, except for the truly necessary personnel.
Dangerous… Won’t lose
You’ll have to suffer a little. Not me, but the people below.
What…
“Pick out experienced people from the existing castles and prepare them so that they can greet you without any problems.”
“Are you okay?”
What is it
There may be people who will run away with this one shot.
“It’s okay to eat in moderation without crossing the line. If we are going to exchange, we should properly exchange and give the people a chance to breathe.”
It is not only merchants and nobles who benefit from such exchanges.
The people also benefit from it.
“All the profits coming in this time will be distributed to the people.”
“Hmm. It will be fine.”
It’s not that I don’t have enough money.
Materials, population, and money. There is nothing we lack.
“There is no need to rush to swallow the East. I think it would be a good idea to adjust the schedule so that our members can enjoy it a little.”
“Don’t let that happen.”
The schedule for the caravan ends with this.
It will arrive next month, so for the time being, we need to work on the event.
“Earl Harry should also take this opportunity to rest.”
Haha. Of course I thought so. If you hadn’t said that, I would have made time for myself.”
But.
As far as I know, Count Harry has a taste for that too.
The Bohrin family, big or small, is interested in that kind of thing.
“What are you planning to do?”
He smiled bitterly at Count Harry’s words.
What I have to do is determined.
“Looks like I should go around with them.”
“You are suffering.”
Count Harry, who knew all about what had happened to me, looked at me pitifully.
But I can’t help it. It’s true that it made me feel bad. Alina is the type to express it properly, so it seems like she is the only one, but neither Irina nor Amelia, she just doesn’t express it in her heart, and she must have been offended.
I need to take this opportunity to relax.
“Tsk tsk. Why did you touch it?”
“I didn’t touch you first…”
Yes.
The two mothers and daughters approached first.
It’s not a particularly poisonous apple, and there’s no reason to reject it.
“I know they are beautiful, but do you touch them?”
Yes.
To say that Count Harry is beautiful is to admire the art.
Count Harry may not have a lack of sexual desire as a child, but he is also a nobleman, so he has less sexual desire.
It’s not like some kind of monk.
When you go out for a long time like this, you go back and spend a hot night for the first time in a long time?
“Okay. Take this opportunity to take care of your sister properly.”
“Ha…”
* * *
Chow!
Warm water flows from your back, warming your body.
The bathroom of Kilias Castle. The character of the family was visible. A gentle touch caressed my shoulder as I basked in a hot tub in a sumptuous bathroom.
Like me, while naked, Kronia was rubbing my shoulders from behind.
“What are you doing? Are you feeling well?”
The pleasant scent and the whispering voice in my ear gave off a pleasant chill.
“Good…”
“Thank god.”
The power to rub your shoulders at my words grows stronger. Enjoying the touch, he opened his mouth.
“You don’t have to.”
“Standing for us.”
“There are also strange rumors going around.”
“On purpose.”
“It’s strong…”
I smiled bitterly at Cronia’s calm response to my words.
Where did the introverted look go when we first met?
But.
It seemed so, but it was Kronia who stepped up, spoke and moved to protect her daughter, Freya. Surprisingly, unlike her appearance, she may have a strong mentality.
Chew!
Feeling the hot water, she was served by Kronia.
Freya and Kronia are actually my maids in this castle.
I said it was okay, but the girls approached me first and said they would take care of me.
In fact, since then, it has always stuck to me and waited on me.
Of course, rumors spread.
There is no one who is unaware of their situation, but apart from that, no one has a good view of the Kilias family lineage.
Not to mention, there was no way that good news could spread that I, the ruler of this new land, was rustling around and entering the bathroom and bedroom in this way.
“Doesn’t it feel bad?”
“A prostitute who spreads her legs trembling at the man who killed the head of the household, dishonoring the honor of a nobleman… What, those rumors?”
“That, yes…”
Was it rumored that way?
At my words, a small smile appeared on Kronia’s lips.
I was a little surprised by the smile with the same emotion as ridicule. You laugh like this
“They can’t even straighten their heads when that person is there. Trash writers with no honor or anything… You don’t have to worry about Leo-sama.”
“I didn’t care from the beginning. You guys are the problem.”
“Whoops. There is nothing left of me or my daughter or the name Kilias. Rather, I want to change right now.”
“Okay? Hmm…”
Right.
I mean that much.
I know what they want how much I hate this place
“Then, when you guys get out of this land as you wish, let’s leave together.”
“… Thank you.”
At my words, Cronia leaned against my back.
I felt a soft, warm body temperature on my back that was different from the warm water.
“Leo. Thank you for saving us. I’ll do anything. I will be with you forever.”
“It’s okay.”
Rather, it is the moment when the lineage of the Marquis family comes into my hands. Even if it’s not Kronia, Freya will give birth to my own child. Then, it was the moment when another lineage of the Marquis family was formed.
“Whoops.”
“Huh?”
After thinking about something else for a while, I turned my head to Kronia’s smile as she leaned her face on my shoulder.
Her gaze was directed toward my lower body. She didn’t really have a sexual desire, but she was still being served, and her body was attached to me, so I guess it reflexively grew bigger.
“This…”
“I know. Leo.”
I tried to explain that it wasn’t the signal, but before I could say anything properly, Cronia stood up.
As if to prove that she was a married woman who was different from her appearance, the sight of her bewitching smile made my lower body tingle without realizing it.
“The sun god of the south. A hero born in the sky who will calm this chaotic land. The first blue blood that will one day color all lineages of this land blue.”
… Huh?
What else is that…
Did that rumor spread?
Cronia moved in front of me and stroked my face.
Her expression changed at Cronia’s words, and she petted it as if it were cute, and her Cronia’s body gradually went down.
“Originally commoners are all like that.”
“What?”
What do you mean?
“Regardless of them, the owners of the land and their rulers change. I know more because they are like that. How to yield, how to serve them.”
“Is it so?”
“Yes. … It’s okay.”
Cronia let out a hot breath for a moment.
Something in her seems to have stabbed her. I don’t know.
“Everybody already knows about the chaos in the country. Just waiting to see who the new owner is. And now that it’s almost decided…”
Kronia looked at me with her loving eyes.
“I praise your name, I fear your magic, and I cherish your symbol in my heart.”
“Is it?”
Is this the process by which faith is created…
… But what was that sound at the end?
As I tilted her head, Kronia held back her laughter and opened her mouth.
“Because Leo-sama’s sexual desire is so famous… I heard there are already 3 of them, right? I don’t know about other regions, but for now, I’m sure there are two commoners in the east, but…”
Mmm. Sister Grace knows too.
In other words…
“The people who admired the vigorous sexual desire said that after a few years, the red blood of commoners across the continent would turn blue…”
“No, that… Isn’t that what humans do?”
“That’s right, Leo-sama is a god.”
Chew!
At Kronia’s words, her water was poured over her head.
Rumors like that…
For a moment, the Greek mythology of Earth came to mind. Do I really want to make a name for myself in the future?
