Chapter 47 (1)
.
For every 2 donation, Ill release an extra chapter the following day.
The meeting was held at the convention center.
Ian and Maeve were seated side by side in the hall, where the smell of blood hadnt completely dissipated.
The gazes of the members were completely different from a few days ago.
Even the king, treated Maeve with respect as if he had never treated her as a madperson.
Maeve showed no change in expression even with the kings courteous words.
She only said what needed to be said.
Ian was the same way.
He submitted evidence, including items from Orundel, such as the evidence related to Marquis Burchard and Mason, and the letter written by Declan.
The king was very satisfied with the contents of the letter.
It seems the new lord of Orundel is very faithful and loyal.
He recognized Declans legitimacy right away and then looked at Ian.
Its written in this letter that your contribution is very significant. It says that you are trustworthy and your abilities are outstanding. You personally beheaded Marquis Burchard?
Yes.
Ian replied calmly.
Even with an impolite attitude, no one sent any condemning glances his way.
That was because he was a hero of the country.
There were even rumors that he was a swordmaster rivaling Maeve.
With a smile, the king added.
As you can see, Agellan needs talented individuals like you. Especially in times when tragedy has swept through and gone. How about living as a noble of Agellan?
It was an offer that couldnt make anyone laugh.
Ill consider it.
Ian shrugged his shoulders and replied.
Anyway, he had to stay in Agellan until his body recovered, so there was no need to add fuel to the fire.
There were still suitable topics to divert the conversation.
Ian pulled out the report about Marquis Burchard and added.
Now, it seems the priority is to identify the remaining corrupt individuals.
Are there still corrupt individuals left?
Ian gestured to the knights who were watching.
He had already been keeping an eye on the corrupt individuals as they entered the meeting room.
The meeting immediately turned into a trial.
Corrupt individuals who hadnt thought their identities would be revealed now stood in a row.
Oh, no! This is a false accusation!
Unjust, unjust, Your Highness!
Please spare me! I merely did as I was told-
The reactions were varied, but the results were all the same.
Soldiers led the corrupt individuals to the execution grounds.
To be prepared for any unforeseen circumstances, knights with drawn swords followed behind them.
Blood was shed once again, but the king was surprisingly satisfied.
Most of the corrupt individuals were those who had claimed to seek peace.
Just like Regis. Even the servants had opposed the war to provoke the kings opposition.
Thanks to that, the remaining meeting ended swiftly.
We have endured a great tragedy. However, we have finally overcome the ordeal and uprooted the darkness of the kingdom. The protection of the radiant goddess and the stern goddess will be clearer than ever for the future of the kingdom.
With Maeve by his side, the king who had ascended the castle walls declared before the gathered people.
From this moment on, Agellan will become a stronger and more loyal kingdom. The kingdoms future will be filled with victory and glory!
Soldiers came out pulling carts loaded with alcohol, grains, and meat.
The cheers of the people who honored the king and the kingdom grew louder.
It was the moment when Agellans future was decided.
Without looking back, he distanced himself. Miguel clicked his tongue.
Hes become quite surly since I last saw him. Geez, he couldve listened and let it slide with one ear.
Of course, his gaze toward Jonathan wasnt friendly either.
Bastards, its good to have a temper.
Ian shook his head.
Alright, when you are done you can leave
Im on my way already
If there are others who are also interested , dont let them
I will let them know
After bowing politely, Jonathan turned around.
Miguel smirked as he glanced back at him.
You already have a good servant. I understand Philips feelings, but honestly, isnt that a bad suggestion?
Ian smirked sarcastically.
Alright then, if you want to.
Of course, just saying you want to do it is not enough. You have to order it though.
Whether I want to or not.
Well I dont have any deep attachment to the kingdom. Its just
Miguel scratched his chin and spoke after taking a sip of his beer.
Im concerned about you, Sir. And also about Miss Lucia.
So, youre going to stay for their sake?
If you permit it, Sir.
Yeah, sure. With your skills, you might live longer that way.
Miguel glanced at Maeve for a moment.
Arent you worried about her? She seems to have lost all will to live.
Now that theres nothing left to protect. Revenge is over. The remaining goal of her life, she has to find it herself.
I can tell from what youre saying that youre planning to leave, Brother. I expected it though.
Im not saying we should go together, dont worry.
Its not worry, its more like feeling regret. Feeling regret. Sigh.
Miguel, who blew his nose, suddenly looked at Ian.
More importantly, theres something I wanted to tell you.
Again, what is it?
I heard an interesting rumor.
What? on that night?
Miguel lowered his voice.
Theres a rumor that there was a monster fighting with those hunting dogs around the outskirts. It seems the person saved several residents.
A monster?
Its a bit fantastical. From what Ive heard, one was a woman with gray hair and red eyes, and the other was a monster with protruding fangs. Anyway, they were telling people with hopeless lives to stay put.
Miguel had a subtle smile.
If you wait, His Majesty might issue a bounty.
I dont know. If theyve consumed that much blood, they might not show their faces for a while.
Huh? Do you have any idea what that is?
Well, somewhat.
Theyre both killers and victims.
Thinking that, Ian finished his meal.
Because Tessia had been clear about it.
