Chapter 48
Chapter 48
There was a reason why Seytil came forward like this.
The damn Raymond.
Not long ago when Raymond wiped out the Dark Blade Guild.
Among the corrupt nobles involved was Viscount Kesford. He was one of Seytils men.
In other words, because of Raymond, he got hit with shit as well.
Raymond, how dare that worm put me in trouble!
Seytil grated his teeth.
Even so, it was Seytil, who was falling behind badly compared to the other princes.
And because it was then revealed that he is connected with the corruption in the kingdom, his position became even more difficult.
So I have to take this opportunity to make a contribution. Seytil thought bleakly.
Raymond, Ill take care of you one day.
Seytil has always hated Raymond. He was disgusted with him and wanted nothing more but to step on him like a bug.
Leave it to me! Ill be back after eradicating those rats all at once!
Oden pondered for a moment since Seytil sounded confident.
To be honest, leading a group of soldiers did not seem to be the solution to eradicate the rats.
However, the king nodded because there were no other measures right now.
Ill tell Lord Walton of the Royal Guards to go with you.
Walton.
As one of the squad leaders of the Royal Guards, he was a powerful sword expert knight.
Ill fix it right away and come back!
Seytil disappeared valiantly, and King Oden, who dismissed the meeting, asked Galman.
Do you think we can expect the mobilized soldiers to exterminate Fastin mice?
I dont think itll be easy. Galman shook his head.
Rats couldnt have been eradicated so easily, especially with this tactic. Its pretty well-known that this course of action is close to impossible.
But its a problem because I dont have any other ideas on how to solve this.
King Oden nodded gravely as well.
If we leave it like this, rats will spread throughout the capital. Galmans face became heavy.
It wasnt usually a serious thing but this is more than different now.
Ill have to come up with a good idea somehow.

Seytil immediately led the soldiers to the Bay Area. And began to search everywhere with shovels for the Pastin rats as soon as they reached the foot.
However, there has been no significant achievement.
They caught a few, but that was it.
No matter how hard they searched for where they were hiding, the troops couldnt find it easily.
Cant you all do it right?! How can you deal with an enemy when you cant even catch a damn rat?!
When what he thought was easy didnt work out, Seytils face heated up, and scolded the soldiers to clean up.
No, how do we find a mouse thats been in hiding?
Do you think we are cats?
The soldiers complained in their own heads, but they tried not to show it.
The poor were also unhappy.
How long are they going to keep digging?
Are they trying to catch the Fastin rats?
Raymond was also in tears.
What are you doing? Like a fool. How can you catch rats if you do it like that way?
He grumbled.
The soldiers are scratching around, and the patient has been cut off as well!
In the treatment center, unlike usual, flies are now flying around.
At this rate, I am going to be in trouble. Raymond thought in a fit of rage.
If you want to catch a mouse, you should set a mousetrap. Or are you all stupid?!
Is it because high-ranking people have never caught a mouse before?
Raymond didnt understand why they couldnt take this obvious thought.
Why cant you solve it even if Ive already spoon-feed you the answer? I tried to stay still in the back so you can take the lead and solve it.
Them solving this seemed to be unlikely now.
If I wait like this, the number of mice will grow exponentially.
If the Bay Area is devastated by an epidemic, the treatment center will also be destroyed.
Eventually, realizing he had to step in, Raymond frowned.
For now, do your best! I do not want to get involved in this conspiracy.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
Sighing heavily, Raymond went to visit Lao.
Lao, can I borrow the kitchen of the official residence?
In the meantime, another Fastin mouse rushed to the pie and died.
Seytils mouth hangs open.
UhUhUhUh.
I will let the soldiers lay low out of the way, Your Highness.
Sir Walton, the squad leader, carefully made his soldiers leave their posts, looking at Seytils countenance.
Lord Walton looked at Raymond with admiration.
How wise you are. How did you come up with that idea?
His teeth gnashed when he thought about the hardships he had to suffer over the past few days due to Seytils orders.
Catching rats as an honorable Royal Knight!
Of course, I know its for the people, but the problem was that Seytils method was extremely inefficient.
Raymonds approach, on the other hand, was far from wise.
He had done a great job of wiping out the Dark Blade Guild, right? He also did a great job of wiping out corrupt officials. Contrary to the story of him being an illegitimate child, he is very wise.
In fact, the Royal Knights were not interested in Raymond at all.
They are only loyal to the king.
To them, Raymond was the blood that stained the nobility of the King. It was nothing more and nothing less. But at this very moment, Raymonds existence came into view for the first time in Waltons eyes, a superior within the ranks of the top ten Royal Knights.
But its strange. I heard that he never learned to use the sword. How come his posture is strangely stable?
Walton tilted his head.
It is a body that doesnt look like its been trained at all, but it feels intact and solid.
It must be an illusion.
Anyway, things went smoothly after that.
Raymond placed the Fastin Cheese Pies throughout the Bay Area.
It didnt stop there as he even used magic in between.
Lets take root for sure what started all of this. Wind! Let it spread as wide as possible with the gentle wind!
The wind carried the foul smell of the pie in the distance.
The effect was straightforward.
Squeak! Squeak!
Fastin rats rushed in, took a bite, and died.
People were surprised to hear and witness that.
How could he use such a method?
Oh! Its coming again!
Where the hell were they hiding? The mice were in a lot of numbers.
The bodies of the Fastin rats piled up around the plate.
Oh! As expected of our prince!
Is the epidemic over now?
I suppose so. As expected of our prince. If it werent for the prince, we would all be in trouble.
Long live our prince!
Hooray!
Long live Raymond, once again reverberated throughout the Bay Area.
Damn.
The real prince Seyril thought, grinding his teeth as he heard the sound of hurrah.
I personally led the soldiers, but I couldnt take any credit. And when I see Raymond, who I despised make a contribution, it feels as if my whole world was spinning.
Stop! How dare you call an illegitimate child a prince?! You guys are crazy about wanting to die. Will you wake up after being punished for contempt of the royal family?
When Seytil got angry, the poor who were cheering for Raymond, looked at him.
The poor asked carefully. Cant we call him the prince?
Calling an illegitimate child a prince?! If you dont want to die, dont say that again!
Oh, we see! We will obey your orders!
The poor nodded as if they understood and shouted differently.
Long live Raymond!
Long live Baron Penin!
Hooray for our Baron!
Seytil crumpled his face when the people continued their cheers while only changing Raymonds oh-so-many great titles.
Its not like thatDamn, it!
The Bay Area, free from the fear of the epidemic, was in a completely festive mood.
His frowning could not stop the roar of joy.
Damn! Damn it!
Seytil gasped and couldnt control his anger, and people clicked their tongues at his petty appearance.
Especially those soldiers who suffered a lot.
He is being stingy.
On the subject that only caused us to suffer ignorantly.
They praised Raymond on the contrary.
