Chapter.36 Hibiren Flower and Concert

“Sorry for my sin! “I’ll take it out right away!”

In order to cover up all their sins related to Count Dedran, they made Count Dedran a disgrace to the nobility.

With one mind and one mind, without conflict between forces.

Therefore, Count Dedran’s superiors were safe, but Count Dedran and his subordinates, who were single culprits of everything, were branded as dirty beings.

Duke Delian is a typical aristocrat who does not regard non-nobles as human beings.

That’s why I didn’t like the idea of a dirty being being involved.

“I didn’t recognize him for a while because he was using the name Great. Why does the Gray family recognize the enemy’s daughter as the count’s wife? Take action immediately... .”

However, it was not only because of uncleanness that Duke Delian pointed out that name. Therefore, Duke Delian slowly shook his head.

“That’s your family’s business. There is no need to interfere with such things. “It’s not even from our family.”

“Is that so?”

Count Michel could not guess why Duke Delian had mentioned Verna Graig. This is the person who made people read that name to themselves without even saying it themselves because they thought it was dirty.

Of course, I thought it was an order to exclude them because I didn’t want to see them. It’s easier to deal with it that way.

However, it didn’t seem like that was what he meant, so I had to break into a cold sweat because I didn’t know what to say.

Duke Delian looked at Count Michel with a frustrated expression and raised his hand. Then he pointed with his finger at the clock lying in the study.

“Why is the clock... ah!”

Count Michel is not an idiot either. The Gray family and clock. Since those two things were related, I was happy to finally find out the true meaning of Duke Delian.

“Is that so? In that case, I guess we should roast and boil the current Earl of Gray’s baby.”

Duke Delian finally nodded with a satisfied expression.

“It’s not good for dirt to get involved, but the Gray family is worth using. By making watches and paying the profits directly to the emperor, he temporarily avoided the obligation to join the powerful. “Due to complicated circumstances, we issued an imperial order that we do not need to belong to other forces for the time being.”

“That’s right. So, isn’t that why other ducal houses are just leaving it alone for now?”

“But it is free will after all. Although he avoided his duty, what Emperor Ming declared was that he did not have to belong to another force. Therefore, if you think that you should seek power normally from the Gray family, the imperial title becomes invalid.”

“Yes. This is truly broad insight. majesty.”

The empire is feudalism.

On Earth, it is similar to the feudal system of Asia, but it is a country that modified it and created its own system.

The emperor only takes over and runs direct jurisdiction.

The land of the empire is so large that it is difficult for the emperor to manage it all.

Therefore, the land, excluding direct territories, is divided and ruled by the great nobles.

Dukes and marquesses from the royal family belong to this great noble family.

The emperor levies a set tax in return for allocating land to the great nobles.

The great nobles redistribute this large territory to the local powers belonging to their power, that is, the counts, and recognize the ownership and right to rule the territory.

This is the lord spoken of in this world.

The only person who can become a lord is a count or higher. And the lords pay taxes to the great nobles just as the great nobles pay taxes to the emperor.

In other words, taxes are from the people of the empire to the lords.

From lords to great nobles.

The great nobility flows to the emperor.

The exception is the nobles of the emperor’s direct territories. In this case, taxes flow directly from the lord to the emperor.

Of course, the lord takes a certain percentage of the taxes that the people pay to the lord.

The great nobles only pay a certain percentage of the taxes collected from numerous nobles to the emperor.

The source of income for nobles is ultimately taxes.

The Gray family originally served a marquis from the imperial family. However, the marquis fell and collapsed, and the emperor recovered the marquis’ territory and redistributed it to the great nobles.

However, in the case of the Gray family, since its owner, the earl, had fallen, and since it was originally a small provincial town with little tax revenue, distribution was postponed until the son grew up and inherited the earldom.

In any case, Great City was not under the direct control of the emperor. It is a land that must belong to a great noble family.

This is the core of imperial feudalism.

Even after Gray Boy inherited the earldom, the emperor again withheld the distribution of this land for reasons of clock.

However, under imperial law, there is no excuse to prevent the Gray family from seeking the faction they wish to directly belong to.

Since it is not under the direct control of the emperor, it must naturally belong to the territory of one of the great nobles, and the Gray family must pay taxes to the great nobles to which it belongs.

Those taxes are now flowing directly to the emperor.

Moreover, the Duke of Delian was very displeased with the fact that now that clocks were spreading across the continent, a huge amount of money was going solely to the emperor.

He’s a funny guy. Serena was about to say that if she was that desperate, it would be better to give up her pride, but decided to hold back for now.

Because Lulin’s expression was so funny.

Lulin is as good as Lulin is to death.

My pride was already crushed by Serena’s words telling me to go back. So, the desire to hit her and use teleportation to go away arose, but Lulin’s reality is that she has no choice but to endure it because she has an earnest wish to suppress her pride.

He clenched his fists and desperately bit his lip, while keeping his eyes on the ground and looking at Serena’s face, then back and forth.

It was a sight to see his face not knowing what to do, like a scared puppy.

I think El is truly amazing for making this lump of pride come to this level.

As Serena thought so, she had the face of a winner looking down at a very arrogant loser, and just looked at Lurin with her legs crossed.

Ultimately, in any world, a thirsty person must dig a well. Lurin, whose eyes were wandering, finally made a decision and opened her mouth, looking straight at Serena.

“El.”

“El?”

“Ugh.”

“What do you want to say, ugh? “Take your moans somewhere else.”

“therefore!”

“So what?”

“More, more, more! Would.”

“What more do you want to do?”

As Serena asked with a grin, Lulin’s face began to turn red rapidly.

I did as Serena said before and the result was a kiss. Lulin, who wants to fall in love with El more, hates to admit it, but he has no choice but to come to Serena.

Because her feelings for El were higher than her pride, Rurin came to ask her how to kiss El more often.

That’s it for now.

I want to do it often. Nevertheless, El was in dire straits, like beans sprouting in a drought.

So what Rurin wants to know is how to get L to kiss her.

Her fatal flaw is that she always complains about wanting to be hugged first, and that she cannot be hugged or kissed first.

Well, in a way, not rushing in first actually increased her attractiveness, but in any case, Rurin felt that she wanted L to always show affection first, that she was embarrassed to approach her first, and even thought that she didn’t know what to do to properly engage in skinship. As a result, I had no choice but to become very passive.

Serena said something with an amused expression on her face, as Lulin’s current actions were tantamount to declaring defeat.

“Aren’t you giving too much?”

“Huh?”

Lurin tilted her head and came closer to Serena. And denied it.

“What are you giving me? “I won’t give it to you.”

“What did you get for doing as I said?”

“That was lucky! No, it has nothing to do with you! Besides, I was more annoyed because I ignored El and ran away!”

“So what is the result?”

“Kikikiki... .kiss... “Oh no, there is something like that!”

Lulin couldn’t finish speaking and turned his head away.

Oh wow wow.

Serena was feeling exactly like that right now. It’s so fun I think I’ll die. His expression was serious, but he was bursting into laughter inside.

“So do you need advice?”

“no.”

“Are you sure not?”

When asked outright, Lurin immediately denied it like an idiot. So, Serena said it was her last chance and asked again.

Then this time, in a hushed voice, he said something different from before.

“No, but it’s true.”

“Right or not? What is he saying now.”

In the end, Lulin declared total surrender and raised a white flag.

“right. That’s right. That’s right!”

Quake quake.

Oh my, it’s fun.

While thinking that, Serena crossed her legs.

Because it was numb.
