Chapter 152.1: Dangerous Guest (1)

The grudges from dissatisfaction could be dealt with later. That wasnt the urgent matter right now.

Right now, we had to increase the number of mercenaries by at least one person and heighten our vigilance.

None of the vassals who were present opposed. Some may have said, . . But still.

Johans momentum was that threatening. No one underestimated the new count.

Dont you think about making peace, Your Excellency?

.

Some of the vassals grumbled to themselves. There had been some contacts from the republic. While being conscious of the glances around them, they spoke round and round but eventually their suggestion was this.

?

Of course, the viscount rejected it flatly and other vassals were also furious and chased away the envoys. However, their suggestion remained in peoples minds.

It was certainly a dishonorable and humiliating thing to ignore the oath made to ones lord and switch sides.

However, there is no such thing as absolute in this world.

While the loyal vassals to the Emperor did not have any other thoughts, vassals other than them thought making peace was also possible. After all, isnt the important thing their rights?

The viscount was the Emperors agent but he had ruled the fief for a long time and was the de facto feudal lord. If he made up his mind, he would be able to do that much.

While it would be humiliating for the viscount, that humiliation would not be the vassals own.

Hmm.

However, the vassals held back. No matter how they looked at it, it did not seem like the viscount would listen to their words.

They were afraid that if they brought it up improperly, they might get branded by the vassals loyal to the Emperor or it might even be reported upwards. . .

Your Excellency, there is an envoy from the city!

!!

The people present became tense at the servants urgent shout.

What would the new count demand?Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

However, contrary to such worries, the envoy only talked about very sensible matters.

To release the captured knights and in exchange, he would also send guests from his side and asked to treat them well.

Since the viscount also sent knights, it was not an unreasonable demand that could not be accepted. Rather, it was an exceptionally moderate proposal.

Did you swear inside?

No way!

Jyanina tried magic as she looked into Karamafs pupils the magic of affinity to let the monster know .

.

Karamaf shook his head as if annoyed, then lay down. The magic had failed. This was because mystical power surrounded the area.

?

Jyanina was slightly surprised. She thought there was no one around who looked like a wizard. . .

Do you remember why I called you?

Count, about the dragon playing dead, I swear to the name of gods and magic. . .

Seeing her bring up an oath she didnt even make, she seemed quite upset. Johan shook his head.

I guess that could be possible.

Thank you.

. , ?

The reason I called you. . . is to ask something to you who is called the handler of monsters and beasts. Can you build a monster army?

What???

Jyanina doubted her ears.

?

Jyanina unconsciously looked around. This could be a trap, and the judges of the Order might be hiding. But there was no one around.

Even Cardirians people who tamed a few decent monsters and secretly used them never thought of building a monster army. In the first place, as a follower of the One Truth Faith, they couldnt have such wicked thoughts.

I. . . Ive never had such thoughts in my life, Count.

I didnt ask if youve thought about it. Is it possible or impossible?

Impossible.

Do you swear its impossible in the name of magic?
