Chapter 157

Episode 157

As soon as the storm disappeared, a typhoon came.

That typhoon was probably more troublesome than Baan.

If the reason Baan came was to meet Daria, those who came now were to thoroughly find out my mistakes.

“Find even the smallest thing!”

The people who began raiding the count family as if they were their own were none other than inspectors dispatched from the kingdom.

These are the people who came this time in connection with the warlock.

“I heard that Raymond’s behavior suddenly changed. Was there anything strange?”

“They say he came to his senses, but he may have been brainwashed.”

“I heard you’ve been going out a lot recently. Was there anything suspicious?”

As soon as they reached the count’s house, they went crazy.

Even though they were from the royal family, their actions were too extreme.

They walked around with bloodshot eyes, trying to find even the slightest fault with me.

While holding on to the maids and knights, they tried to dig up something.

“What are these crazy people saying? Was he crazy because he wanted to search? “How dare you curse someone…!”

“Hey hey! These are people from the royal family. There wasn’t. “In fact, I am grateful to you, Master, for being so mature.”

“Brainwashing? What does that mean? I wonder if you have forgotten what kind of place this is. Brainwashing in a place that is almost like a sanctuary…”

“There is nothing suspicious about you, Master. “Please get out of the way as it will interfere with training.”

It was out of the question.

In the past, when Raymond was at his peak, he wouldn’t have defended him like this.

Rather, they would have used this as an opportunity to report everything as if they were getting rid of pests that are eating away at Millennium.

‘If you were going to come visit me, I would come visit you long ago. ‘The timing is perfect.’

Not only has he not bothered them recently, but he has actually helped them.

From Reid’s body to the disposal of the 3rd prince.

There was no reason for them to criticize me for doing something helpful to the count family.

I don’t know if it’s just for a moment. For nearly a year, I lived differently from the old Raymond.

It was almost impossible for people who believed that I had completely changed to betray me.

Who would cut off someone who is helpful to the family?

‘I am a millennial. The one and only successor to Millennium.’

There are no knights or vassals who would kill the only heir to the family, especially a helpful one.

If I were to look for them, the only ones I could find were people who have hated me for a long time, sons who do not want the family to prosper, or spies.

Fortunately, there were no such people in Millennium.

Most of the spies were not able to reach the earl and were sorted out among the vassals, and those in Millennium live for the family.

“What are these crazy people doing to come here and fuck around?”

“They say they are inspectors from the royal family.”

“what? Tsk, I don’t like it. This is why I don’t like royal people. “Because you don’t know anything.”

“Then you probably don’t like it, Daria?”

“Daria is an exception. “He is the real royal.”

As I walked down the hallway, I burst into laughter at the sound I heard.

As I walked around, I never saw a single person swear at me or worry about what they would say about me.

They all cursed not me, but the inspectors who were prying after me.

‘This doesn’t feel bad.’

It didn’t really matter if they cursed at me or took out their complaints about me.

How can I get everyone to like me and take my side?

This is the same even if the other person is a saint.

No matter how well he behaved, there is no one who is not dissatisfied with him.

Among them, there is someone who dislikes them even for trivial reasons such as jealousy.

If this is true of people who have lived a good life, how much more so should I, who cannot be said to have lived a good life.

Although it was revealed later, I moved as I wanted and did not hesitate to go to places where I could die.

I attracted people at will, and even royal family members came to visit me.

Because of a person like me, there was never a quiet day in the Count’s family.

There may be people who don’t like it.

‘I can’t do anything about that person’s thoughts.’

I had no intention of swearing at him or punishing him just because he didn’t like me.

I just assume it is so and move on.

I had that thought, but I haven’t found anyone who swears at me yet.

It felt strange to see him swearing at someone who was trying to dig up my back.

“Are you Raymond? “He looked like a gisaeng brother, so he did things like that.”

Perhaps because there was nothing for the knights to dig up, the inspectors went around and eventually came to me.

When you leave the inspectorate, your rank is equivalent to that of a viscount.

At that time, since they were acting under the orders of the king, most nobles could not treat them carelessly.

We must accept and cooperate with everything.

Of course, he would treat dukes and marquis, the highest ranking officials after the king, with caution, but

it was also true that he could seek maximum cooperation from counts.

‘Are you crazy?’

Anyway, their attitude was abnormal.

Millennium was a count.

However, there are also ranks of counts.

While there are counts who are weaker than viscounts even though they are counts, there are also people who are just as influential as dukes even though they are counts, so even the king cannot treat them carelessly.

Although they are a very small minority, millennials are among that minority.

Even the king cannot do anything rashly in his territory.

Anyone who works in public affairs would not know that unless they were stupid.

“Do you know what crime you committed?”

“Because of you, our relationship with the empire almost broke down!”

“You have nothing to do, so you dare to have an affair with a warlock? And take the 3rd prince there!”

It would have been difficult to do this to me without these things going crazy.

This is not the royal family, but the millennium.

Even dogs are said to be at their best in their own homes, so what about Millennium, who has an influence comparable to that of a peacock?

Even the king is careful in the Millennium domain, and it is unthinkable for a viscount to be wandering around like this.

‘They say I’m not a count.’

Yes, I am not a count.

Let’s say that’s possible… but what can I say? That’s something you can’t do without going crazy.

Millennium’s domain ignores its successor?

That was tantamount to ignoring the entire millennium.

Unless you want to get into trouble with Millennium, that action is impossible.

“What did you say just now?”

I wonder if he would have thought I had heard wrong and asked again.

To others, I might be able to dig up my heels.

But you have to be careful in front of others.

What kind of prince is this? You’re royalty and that’s it?

“It looks like you’ve heard it now, right? “You can understand Millennium’s level.”

“Millennium, which was doing well, had no choice now.”

I felt my face harden at their words.

“That crazy bastard!”

“Are you crazy because you really want to die?”

The knights who were listening from afar became very angry at the sound.

That wasn’t a remark, it was blatantly ignoring the level of Millennium while talking about it.

“Oh, I guess you heard this.”

“If you heard it, what are you going to do? “Can you kill us who came by the king’s orders?”

Well, they say there are a lot of crazy people like this, but this was behavior that went way beyond that level.

Can you kill me? Of course you can kill it.

They are not important people to the kingdom, nor are they connected to the empire like the prince.

It was not possible for civil servants who appeared simply under the pretext of inspection.

If you ask why you killed them, just tell them that they ignored us millenniums in the first place.

witness? evidence? There are plenty. Because they didn’t do it in secret, they did it openly in front of everyone.

‘This can’t happen unless you want to cause friction with the kingdom.’

No, even if we killed them, the royal family will not hold us responsible.

Because it was clear who was at fault.

Even a child can understand who will lose if Millennium turns its back on this.

There were many places to go in Millennium, even if it wasn’t Serion.

Every country covets the magic of Millennium.

We can just abandon Serion and go to another country, so what’s wrong with us?

Of course, there will be losses as a result, but not as much as the royal family.

In fact, there will be more side income from moving countries.

Knowing that, the royal family does not touch the millennium.

Above all, the Count of Millennium is the lord of the central magic tower in charge of one axis of Serion.

It is obvious what will happen to the Central Magic Tower when Millennium moves.

“why? “Did we say something wrong?”

“If you get angry, you kill me. “If you kill us, the royal family will be happy.”

“He has such thoughts, so he foolishly puts the 3rd prince in danger.”

I noticed something strange in their behavior of sticking out their boats.

There is no way those who work in the royal family do not know the relationship between the royal family and Millennium.

However, it seemed like there was some other intention behind such behavior.

‘That is not an act of trust in the royal family.’

Aside from everything else, they weren’t really afraid of dying.

Is that possible?

No human being, no matter how brave he or she is, can be calm in the face of death.

‘There is something.’

Something bigger than the royal family was behind them.

But I had no idea what it was.

What on earth do they believe and why do they come out so confidently?

What do you believe in that makes you feel like it’s okay to die?

“Why can’t I just kill him? “Why can’t we do that after putting the 3rd prince in such danger?”

“How did they do such a thing when their liver is so small?”

I saw something strange in their words.

“If the 3rd prince had been hurt, it wouldn’t have ended like this.”

“Of course we won’t do that, but we will thoroughly uncover the crime.”

“It’s a shame because His Majesty the Emperor has forgiven me.”

The royal inspectors called their king low and elevated the emperor.

What’s even funnier is that while he was worried about the 3rd prince, he didn’t actually give him an honorific title.

It seemed like nothing more than a justification.

A cause that can touch me.

‘Oh, I guess that’s it.’

I felt like I had some idea of what these guys were thinking.

And then there was laughter.

“Are you laughing just now?”

“You really are crazy.”

“It looks like he lost his mind. “It’s scary because we don’t know what we’re going to do.”

Even if these guys misunderstood, they clearly misunderstood.

There is another reason why I laughed.

‘If you show it so openly, it makes me feel sorry for doing something.’

These guys had no ideas.

If you had any sense, you wouldn’t have insulted me and Millennium so openly.

I would have scratched my head until I couldn’t stand it anymore and did something about it.

My head felt cold.

Should we consider this fortunate?

It’s funny how they are so stupid that they don’t know their subject well and run wild.

‘I never thought I would meet the empire’s henchmen so easily.’
