Chapter 413: More Serious Than Imagined
I first made an appointment with the chamberlain of Margrave Volton, Xervus-san.
Margrave Volton was busier than ever before.
The management of the Savage Lands, an area no country owns, was decided upon in a conference, turning the land into a neutral zone. Among them, Wedgefort, the exclave of Valkyra Kingdom; The exclave of Lomaria Kingdom which is a constructed city located between Wedgefort and their mainland; Valor, the city constructed by the Trination in the vicinity of the Sanctuary which the trination had agreed to manage together.
Owing to the Volton Margavery bordering the Savage Lands, Margrave Volton whose work had increased explosively was apparently so dizzyingly busy. Obviously he would be unable to meet us if we go all of a sudden.
「Why don’t we hire someone to manage our mansion in Volton?」ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels
「Right. Laeva frequently travels between Volton and the Sanctuary, so the cleaning was left to her, but that might be a good idea.」
After delivering the letter to Xervus-san, and while I was cleaning the Volton mansion, Akane made a suggestion.
We have no plans of selling the Volton mansion, so it would be better to employ a caretaker. This is way too late for this though.
「We’d want one for the Sanctuary mansion too, huh.」
「Aren’t Maria and Marnie there for the Sanctuary mansion?」
When I said that, Akane shook her head in disbelief, and so explained.
「Maria and Marnie are your wives, no? Wouldn’t it be strange if there are no maids and servants for that big of a mansion? You could hire servants from the people who want that job if it’s in the Sanctuary. I think there are many girls who would want to work as a maid.」
「In such a situation, it would be untimely if Iruma-dono, who was affiliated with Valkyra Kingdom, were to greatly develop Sydnia.」
「I just want them to be able to live a life without starving, and not be robbed by bandits and robbers at the minimum.」
「That might be the most difficult.」
I know that maintaining public order was the top priority of the Trination, but there was another dispute over which country was in charge of what region.
「So, I was thinking that there was no church of the Genesis Faith in Sydnia.」
「Yeah, it was a country with I don’t know what religion, after all.」
「Then how about I build a few churches of the Genesis Faith, and then the practitioners of the faith can work there? If it’s the church of the Genesis Faith, then I have no problem donating them.」
The largest religious influence in Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom worships Goddess Norn. This was no different for the Elven Country nor the Dwarven Country. Then wouldn’t it be safe for the Genesis Faith to reach out to the needy people of Sydnia?
「......mhmm, it would certainly be simple to make churches if it’s you, Iruma-dono. The Genesis Faith would gladly accept it and send personnel to be posted there. Moreover, if they find out that it was Iruma-dono, the custodian of the Sanctuary, who built the church, the archbishop would be overjoyed and thank you.」
「It seems viable.」
「Yes, I’ll try to steer the countries in that direction.」
For the time being, the discussion about supporting Sydnia’s revival had been settled. All that’s left is to talk about personnel.
