Chapter 625

Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga Chapter 625

———

Among the knights I have met so far, meeting Visquente, who can be said to be one of the most intelligent and conceptual, was certainly welcome, but apart from that, it was completely unexpected, so I was dumbfounded.

I was concerned about the fact that he never found me by chance and came to visit me, but that was quickly resolved thanks to Visquenté, who cut it short and got right to the point.

“Thanks to our past relationship, not only was the work completed safely without any involvement with the traitors, but I was also able to fulfill my duties in the royal family. That is why I am meeting you right away today.”

“That... that’s something to celebrate.”

I wanted to congratulate them sincerely, but since the target was the royal family where the princess with a leech was coiled, it was too much to just hide her embarrassed expression. Unaware of my reaction, Visquente pulled out a scroll from his bosom and continued talking.

“It’s nothing else, the royal family has prepared a gift to congratulate Lord Ega for all the feats he has done for the kingdom, including his performance on the frontlines. , He said that it was time to focus on the war against the demon kings, so he decided to deliver the message in this form.”

“...which one?”

“It was a message from Princess Messina Vans da Etisiel.”

The first time I heard it, I wondered who it was, but I was able to remember that it was the name of the princess with a leech. It was a very likable act just by making all kinds of excuses and not coming forward to meet him in person, but when Visquente’s unfinished words continued and the ‘gift’ from the royal family was mentioned, his head froze.

“In the name of the royal family, Lord Ega will be bestowed with the mansion that once belonged to the traitor Envelde. The site and structure have been completely renovated and are Lord Ega’s private property from now on.”

I couldn’t even say the question, ‘Yes?’.

It wasn’t because I was suddenly given a mansion as a gift. Anyway, since I don’t have any financial regrets right now, I’m not particularly impressed, and I didn’t bother to ask for it, but looking at the work I’ve done so far, it’s nothing strange.

Even the intention is obvious when you see that the royal family will bear all the expenses for furniture and hiring servants. It is safe to say that this was a bribe to roll the dragon’s by-products inside the kingdom.

But that doesn’t matter either. I know you can’t force anything on me with just this. I was taken aback because, of course, I got goosebumps thinking about the conversation I had with Tie today. The timing is ridiculous.

“That... is it very sudden?”

“Haha, this was a topic that had been mentioned even before rumors about him becoming a dragon slayer were heard. Even completely unrelated articles even said in unison that the reward for Sir Ega was too insignificant, so it was a natural step.”

That minor reward was rather my taste.

I asked if it was a problem in the area where I could use my hands on something on the side of the Church of Thiet, but after confirming that it was just a coincidence, I, as if I was satisfied with everything, Bis handed over the house documents and the wooden box with the key and the official documents. I had to make an effort to force a smile on Quente.

It took less than an hour to load all the by-products, unlike the thought that it would take at least three hours because it was a lot of luggage. Those who proved that they could not be the main force of the church, but were far from ordinary people who had not trained, quietly climbed into the carriage as if they had promised and set off without asking for directions.

People who saw the by-products of the dragon, which had received all the attention so far, were loaded onto the carriage, tried to follow and watch it as if they were watching a circus, with various reactions, but confirmed that the carriage was gradually approaching the upper class area. And in an instant, it came off.

But that doesn’t mean that those watching us have completely disappeared. Aristocrats are also human after all, so they couldn’t hide their curiosity when several wagons entered. Did he go on for another ten minutes past the aristocrats who gave him a different look than the common people?

(Old) Envelde Mansion, which has completely returned to its appearance before I invaded, greeted us.

“I didn’t expect to come here again...”

Thinking of Envelde, who would be sobbing in hell at the fact that the man who ruined all his plans and took his own life swallowed the mansion, made me feel better.

I lightly got off the wagon, opened the lock with the key in the wooden box given to me by Visquente, and pushed the door open. And the wagons lined up through the road. Leaving those carriages behind, Thiet jumped down and came closer to me, lightly brushing off her skirt.

“The mansion has a fairly large basement storage, so I’ll store the by-products there. It’s still not safe enough as it’s drawing a lot of attention, but at least it’s safer than just spreading it out in the yard. But...”

That’s right, he was originally a spy planted by Envelde. I was almost surprised to find out if there was a way to figure out the structure of the mansion that I hadn’t even entered yet.

But apart from that, it bothered me that she slurred her words.

“but?”

“...But still, it’s unreasonable to just trust the lock and leave it unattended. That’s why... I’d like to ask the brothers and sisters you know to guard for a while. What do you think?”

“guard?”

“Yes. Since it is a nobleman’s mansion, there are many rooms, and the furniture will be refurbished. Of course, since there are only six of us, it will be more comfortable if other brothers and sisters stay with us.”

......Aren’t you trying to say that you can’t go out later while drawing the big picture?

“Don’t worry. I have no intention of insisting that I don’t want to leave after I settle down with this.”

Tea, who burst out with a rare smile, as if she had read my thoughtful gaze, confidently continued her explanation.

“We just want to show how helpful we are in most ways.”

If you give me a chance, I’ll show you that powerful people don’t hire people from the church until they follow an unreasonable policy.

Tie’s expression, which seemed similar to usual, coexisted with pride that could not be hidden.
