Chapter 490

As we listened to Moulin-san promote them, we were able to narrow down the interviewees with Sophias insight, and Maribelle and Sebastians experience.

It was then that Moulin-san asked a fundamental question. Now that I think about it, we hadnt told her.

By the by, how many people were you thinking of?

For the time being, I believe we would like at least two people.

I want at least one person to assist Sebastian in the Volton mansion. And the rest, Id like at least one person who specializes in paperwork at the Sanctuary mansion.

As to why, its because well have projects that were very likely to increase our paperwork.

Akane and Maria were probably going to expand their fashion-related business, and bowling somehow reached Papeck-sans ears.

It may have been Akane or Maria, or maybe it was Sebastian.

Because of this, Volton and Wedgefort were now searching for a place to build a bowling alley.

Laeva ended up needing to make a large number of pins and balls.

There hasnt been a word of complaint, but actually among my employees, some of those who were normally in the Volton mansion werent simply couldnt access the bowling alley. Im an employer who can read the situation. I couldnt just give in to everyones silent pressure, after all.

And so, profits relating to bowling would also increase from here on.

Jeez, I have a feeling this is gonna turn into a vicious cycle of doing something and the mountain of documents increasing. Its quite profitable, so I probably shouldnt call it a vicious cycle though.

If anything, I should be glad I was fortunate enough to meet the people. I met Sophia and Maria, and then Laeva, and even Marnie[1 I feel really bad that Marnie is never mentioned in the story], and everyone who helped me, Im so lucky to have met everyone. Thats why I dont have any confidence in my ability to judge people. And thats why I just tried asking Moulin-san if she had anyone to recommend.

Moulin-san, do you have anyone you recommend?

A recommendation? Lets see how about her? She has received rigorous training since childhood, and she is also good with etiquette.

T-this is

We were surprised by the piece of paper that Moulin-san pulled from the file. Even Sebastian and Maribelle were speechless.

Written down on the singular piece of paper that Moulin-san picked was the detailed information of a former noble lady from a certain country.

Moulin-san, this is

A pitiful child who was a victim of family who lost a power struggle.

so shes being treated as a criminal slave?

Just as Sebastian said, that child was a criminal slave. Normally, we would never associate with a criminal slave.Aall newest chapters on n.o./velbi/n/(.)com

Yes. It was purely a coincidence that our store found her, though had been any other slave store, she would have had a miserable end.

It feels like they were expecting me from the beginning, Im wrong, arent I?

According to Moulin-san, the trapped and crushed Baron was on the Royal Faction, and the Noble Faction, who were opposed to the countrys prosperity these recent years, were getting impatient. As the balance of power among the factions was tilting in favor of the Royal Faction, they connived to falsely accuse a noble from that faction.

The location of the Barons fief wasnt great. They must have abhorred the fact that it was booming because it a good transit point. The nobles in the Noble Faction seem to have planned to split it equally amongst themselves.

Which means, it didnt happen.

Yes. When Lord Portfort questioned the revocation of peerage, and when the intelligence unit investigated it and found out that it was a false charge, it was already too late, everything was over.

The person who connived against the baron was an Earl of the noble faction, and the troublesome part was that it was he was a relative to the Duke, His Majestys uncle.

The Baron himself had died from the despair, and the Baroness returned home. By that point, the daughter had already been purchased by Moulin-san as a criminal slave. Lord Simon seemed to want the revival of the house from its direct lineage, with the barony under the direct control of the Royal Family. At present, it was difficult to do since the barons only daughter had already fallen as a criminal slave.

But how could they not realize this before they rescinded the title?

I cant say for sure, but I believe it was difficult for the prime minister of the entire country to check the reason for a lowly baronys demise.

The noble faction has plenty of civil servants. The fact that Lord Portfort even realized it after everything was over makes him an excellent prime minister.

According to Sebastian, Lord Simon realized because it was him.

They know about the false accusation, right? Then cant the girl be released?

You cant destroy something and then say it was all a mistake. That would be foolish.

Moreover, Iruma-sama, unlike debt slaves, criminal slaves basically cant be released. The only way would be to be pardoned by His Majesty as a special case.

For them to not be able to simply say they were wrong once a person becomes a criminal slave is

Thats why, Iruma-dono.

I see, it wouldnt be impossible for Master to ask His Majesty for pardon.

I-is that so?

Moulin-san, Sebastian, and Maribelle nodded silently. Hold up, wasnt buying the girl still up for decision?

Then lets decide on the second person?

Indeed. There will be plenty of paperwork from here on, so we wanted two.

How about this child?

Leaving me confuse, Sebastian and Maribelle began looking for other interviewees.

TLN Thank you very much for all your support this year! I wish you all a happy new year! Prosperity and health in the coming year~
