Episode 48
Episode 24. Heize’s pressure The servants of the Fuang Merchant welcomed their little master who returned after a long absence. As Yu Ma entered the Upper Mansion, Fu Ang and Cindy Cog Spin jumped out.
“Yuma-sama! Miss Yuma!”
Puang gasped and ran to Yuma.
“Why are you making such a fuss, haha.
Did I miss you that much?”
“Not that!”
“I’m disappointed, Mr. Puang. Didn’t want to see you.”
“No, of course I missed you! But I have a letter you need to check urgently.”
“What is?”
Cindy, who was next to her, handed out a pair of shoes to Yuma. Judging from the sealed state, the letter had not yet been opened. Yuma looked at the pattern printed on the letter.
eagle pattern. It was the symbol of the Rollmandy family. The caller was Hayes Rollmandy.
“This is a letter from Lord Hayes Rollmandy.”
“Haha, don’t be too scared. Perhaps it was just a letter sent to see your face. More than that, the Cindy Magul subjugation party…
“Here it is.”
Cindy handed out the report before Yuma could even ask for it. The report, as always, was neatly organized so that it could be read at a glance.
“As expected, Cindy. You had a lot of trouble this time too.”
Fourteen applicants for Sword Expert or higher. Among them, there were two sword masters.
“There were more people than expected. I didn’t expect two sword masters to come. Just call these fourteen. Let’s generously support the expenses.”
“Can we do it by the end of two weeks?”
“Do it.”
When Cindy returned, Spinin held out the ledger of the Conedin Company to Yuma.
The magic stones of Haseo that came in through Natalie were nicely arranged. In the first place, it was not difficult because there was only one management item.
“Good job Spinin. This will give you a bonus this month.”
Shupin nodded and moved.
After slowly taking a bath, Yuma went up to her room. Pouang was frustrated that Yuma did not quickly check Heize’s correspondence.
There was nothing special about the letter, which I leisurely checked. All he had to do was tell him to visit the Rollmandy family after the trip was over.
Yuma knew Heize’s intentions. It means to get your hands off Jeka.
Yuma snorted and put the letter in the drawer.
‘I’ve already pressed all of Zeka’s Magi so they don’t run out of control.
Hayes guy. I’ll get some heat.’
Yuma picked out the best clothes in the dressing room. It was to dress up not like a commoner before going to the Rollmandy family’s mansion.
Yuma, who was walking around the city of Hale in a luxurious coat, was already known as a commoner scion.
It was a very contradictory expression.
However, the ripple effect of Yuma was so great that it was often heard at the social gatherings of noble ladies.
‘I have to properly express my position to Heize and come back. Zecca is my man, not you.’
Anyway, from the moment I joined hands with the Zach family, it was no different than becoming half-enemies with the Rollmandi family.
Yuma is a commoner.
Commoners cannot maintain their lives the moment they are out of sight of the great aristocratic family.
But now, no one in the empire could destroy Yuma without a cause. Unless she is the Empress.
Of course, Empress Asuka Roze trusted Duran, so there was no way he would harm Yuma, his beloved pupil, without a name.
A commoner’s path to success unprecedented in the history of the Kyle Empire.
Even though he was playing the role of a small master of the guild, it had long since surpassed the achievements of rank knights like Mero.
Yuma proudly walked along the main road in Hale, the capital, and headed towards the Rollmandi mansion.
Hayes had given orders to the gatekeepers, so no other formalities were needed to enter the mansion.
As Yuma passed through the gate, the Rollmandi family nobles inside the mansion glared at Yuma. It was much more blatant than the glare he had received from the Zach family.
‘I’m full of jealousy of those who were born with a good lineage and spend their lives for nothing. Rather, Shonan Rollmandy would have stepped forward with confidence.’
It felt disgusting, but Yuma walked across the garden with a smile on his face.
Hayes Rollmandy was handling various papers in his room.
“I came because the ball called me.”
“Sit down and wait.”
Yuma sat down on the wooden chair across from Heize.
As Minister of the Empire, Hayes was a thorough perfectionist.
Even when he was a eunuch, Yuma clucked his tongue at Heize’s progress in state affairs and his ability to review them. I feel like a workaholic.
Usually, ministers who had been knights left most of the review to their assistant civil servants, except for important issues.
Hayes, however, was known for checking even the smallest details himself.
square square.
The only sound in the room was the movement of Haze’s quill.
In addition to state affairs, it seemed that he was examining all documents from the Rochshires, the estate of the Rolmandi family.
The heads of great aristocratic families did not live in their own estates. Since they were the key figures in the Hwangseong, they placed decent talent among their blood relatives in the Yeongju Castle and stayed in the capital. As such, the influence of the three families on the empire was enormous.
Crunchy crunch….
It’s already been two hours. In the meantime, Heize did not give Yuma a single glance and reviewed the pile of documents. Yuma straightened his back and sat down, staring at Heize.
“Yuma.”
After finally reviewing the documents, Heize opened her mouth.
“yes.”
“Have you ever seen your master work like this?”
“doesn’t exist.”
Most of Duran’s work was done by Randell and his son, Damian.
Duran’s role was to win the war and prosper the Kyle Empire based solely on his overwhelming military power. I also had a personality that hated things that hurt my head.
“It is funny. Kyle’s commander-in-chief is leaving all of his duties to his family.
Do you think this could happen in a normal country?”
It was deliberately trying to induce an answer that would upset the Zach family.
‘You’re wasting time and asking questions that are hard to answer based on your relationship advantage. I know how to deal with people too.’
Yuma thought.
The moment Yuma answered ‘yes’ to that question, it was like he was cursing Duran, and if he answered ‘no’, he seemed to deny Heize’s opinion.
“An empire is not a normal state, it is the most powerful state.”
Yuma answered.
“You seem to have forgotten the fountain a long time ago. It seems like you don’t even notice.”
Yuma didn’t bother to say he was sorry.
“I will ask straight forward. What did you do with Jecca?”
“How did you not do it? We just went on a trip together.”
“If you think that I know how to get along with your arrogant nonsense, you are making a big mistake.”
Hayes said cheerily.
Yuma felt his whole body tingle.
Hayes was the closest human being to a grandmaster in the world.
However, he couldn’t make Yuma, who had met Duran, Hugo, Kaiente, and Kriesha, wince with that level of energy.
“Didn’t you hear from Jeka?”
“You are not in a position to ask me questions.”
“It didn’t look good, so I took it to Mr. Hugo. At my request, Hugo suppressed Zecca’s demonic energy and told me to go find the Witch of the Golden Tower. We put the story into practice.”
Heize looked at Yuma in silence. I meant to talk in more detail.
“The witch of the Golden Tower was a blue dragon named Chrysa Ainu. He helped me control Zecca’s demonic energy and gave me a spear called Cybeline.”
“You mean to believe that?”
“I think you may have touched Cybeline. Only dragons can create weapons with self.”
Hayes’ right palm had burn marks. It was a scar caused by forcibly touching Cybeline.
None of the humans dared to touch the weapon with the Dragon Word on it.
At least he was a soldier about the size of Heize, so that was the end of it.
‘I wonder if it’s Captain Hugo.’
Heize, whose expression had not changed, was now openly showing a displeasure.
It is difficult to contain his anger because he cannot slit his throat right away even though the worm-like commoners in front of him are scorning him.
“Besides, it seems that Jeka’s mother is a distant descendant of Grandmaster Pidgin Carta.”
“You bastard…
“Krisya Ainu-nim doesn’t know that fact. That you were trying to disgrace the descendants of Pidgin Carta and use the son. Maybe if you find out…
Exaggeration!
Heize jumped at him in an instant and strangled Yuma. Yuma’s body hit the wall and floated slightly.
Heize glared at Yuma with eyes full of blazing intent to kill.
Yuma bit his molars tightly and endured the pain. But in my heart, I was so excited that I could hardly hold back my laughter.
It was because Heize, the head of the Rollmandy family, was showing an ugly appearance because she couldn’t help herself.
Yuma lowered his eyes and looked at Heize.
“And Zecca… kuck! Make a contract with Kriesha Ainu! I did. Krysa Ainu is a descendant of Dragon Lord Mahatrisha. nice.”
It was a lie.
Kriesha was only helping Jeka, but it wasn’t a contractual relationship.
However, it was true that Kriesha was Mahatrisha’s spirit family.
Spirits were similar to blood relatives, but instead of blood, souls were the medium. It was a fact he knew because he was Yuma who had gone through the Dragon Horse War.
It was for this reason that Mahatrisha left the battlefield and ran to retrieve Kriesha’s body.
Heize threw Yuma away.
Yuma rolled on the floor and stomped. It was fortunate.
Yuma was able to let out a laugh that was difficult to contain, pretending to be a sore throat.
“I dare to say something to Lord Hayes.”
When Heize didn’t answer, Yuma stood up.
“If you try to use Jeka more and it goes wrong, not only the Rollmandi family but also the entire empire will suffer. Kriesha Ainu’s power is not something humans can control.”
Heize had the momentum to tear Yuma to death at any moment.
However, if he did such a thing without justification, there was a concern that he would open an all-out war with Duran as well as with Hugo.
Of course, when Yuma died, Duran didn’t know, but even Hugo didn’t take the lead.
However, Hayes could not clearly distinguish the influence of the back ship.
“…If Zeka goes wrong and Krisya Ainu is enraged, Heize-dono will have no choice but to seek help from my master, who thinks so pitifully. I don’t know if the Zach family and the Roll Mandi family can stop it even if they all work together.”
It was a lie followed by a bluff. Even if Kriesha found out about all this, she couldn’t leave the Golden Pagoda for a long time.
“I’m just going to leave you alone.”
Yuma walked out of the Rollmandy Mansion with the same dignified steps as when he had come.
