The preparation for the trip to Vienne has startedI only needed Philly, but it was a different story for Kalione
She was a true princess as born into the highest royal bloodline of the denity and accoationWe did not have any human resources, so Roelin hurriedly dispatched the needed resources
“Here are the servant girls and body guards, horse handler, cook,handler, cavalry and troops, 512 people all together”
I shook oblin vampire, reported
“The princess' travel is surely extravagantMake sure there are no setbacks”
“Yes, Your Highness”
I opened up the statusafter delegating all the details to KrularkWe must leave for the empire's capitol cityI wanted to double check to make sure that there aren't any issues as it would require a half day for getting ready
Suddenly, one curious topic came upWhat was otten about it for a while that I thought it would be a good opportunity to look into it once
The fact that the achievement score notification was deactivated was the reason that the score hasn't been popping up
Ting!
I was pleasantly surprised after having entered the achievement score section
“Ah…”
It has gone up so
It was 45,122,120 points
Even I, as ranked the 1st in the world, was surprisedThe great war hasn't even started, yetAnd still thissurprised, and I opened the detail page to check

Besides those, a whole bunch of achievements were crowdedly listed
The total score was 45,122,120 points
My all tih score was 545,620,000 when I had played as the hero of the huht that even 1,000,000,000 points was possible
On top of that, not just a hero, but I have also obtained the position of the hero without blood and tearI had a hope that I ht be able to clear it this time around
We left after four daysHaving descended the h Bels, Lintz, and arrived at Vienne after ten daysAll the people's interest was on the itinerary of this beautiful princess, whose fah the roof
“I can't understand why they all want to get a peek at meMy lord”
However, she did not appear to mind all the attention
“It's expectedThe curiosity would follow since the pitiful story invokes sympathy, and that you're the h you're one of htly lowered head i quietly is reminiscent of a tulip”
“…It won't work, no uile me”
There was a reason forthis wayI intended to hold a parade before the people of Vienne once we get thereEspecially, an open horse carriage was already prepared, so that Kalione's beauty could be shown to the whole world
“Now, coeYour face is like a strategic weaponMust use it”
“Is this part of the diplo about?”
“Certainly”
I promised Kalione that I would show her the basics of diplomacy in ViennePerhaps, that hy she didn't appear to be too happy when she nodded
“If you say so, I will obey, for now”
“GreatNow, try to put on asmile”
Kalione was displeased when I pulled up the ends of her lips with ers in order to put a smile on her
“Eeeewk!I'm not the kind of woman who sells booze at the bars!”
“They are both sa when it comes to service businessCome on, put on a smile”
After a little bit of struggle, I finally had her put on an optimal smile
“I don't like it one bit, but since we started, I'll do my bestMy lordBut, do remember”
“What?”
“I do not do such things even if someone was to offer me 1,000,000 FlorinsI only do it because you want me to do this”
“I know thatYou are truly a loyal servant”
After everything was settled, we entered VienneThen people came out in droves, and formed a cloud like crowd to see usThe parade of about 500 was enough to incite their attention
Especially, the view of Kalione, who gracefully sat in the horse carriage, and waving her hand to the croas the main featureShe surely appeared to be a princess in a painting
“Wo!”
“It's the princess!”
People yelled fro the horse carriage sprinkled silver coins around the vicinityRiding Philly, I led thea cool looking black ar cape
“Who is that noble looking man?”
“Could that be the Duke Valer as said to have defeated the de!”
“If so, he certainly looks dignified, fitting the fame!”
There ca was ht I had earned the favor of the locals, and de to the capitol's powerhouses, which had been
There were people that I had to face before I reat capitol city, the prime minister of the empire, and the head of the parliament of the empire were the threeAs the true influential ones, they iest way
Perhaps, the people who caht family also went and met the three in orderAs soon as the parade ended, I called the spy king Kubalt
