Chapter 254 (1/2)

As Penelope had gone out and inspected for two days, most of them were servants of the Laurent aristocratic family having private meetings. Noah thought they would be interested in the dragon master, who had appeared overnight, and left them alone for a few days, but rather their interest had gradually increased. Even worse, today…

“Noah! Muell received all of these!”

The door slammed open and Muell came wobbling in with his arms filled with letters and gift boxes. About an hour ago, she had sent him out to go around the annex. Noah picked up a letter that had fallen next to his foot.

“Marquess Certes. How many letters were sent to this address? Muell, you don’t just eat food from a stranger. We eat together. Give them to me.”

Muell, who had jumped up to the sofa, flicked a chocolate cookie into Noah’s mouth. She looked through the letter against the backdrop of a long sigh presumed to belong to Penelope. It was all the same story.

“Congratulations on becoming a new dragon master! If you don’t mind, I’d like to attend a tea time or a party at your home sometime.”

Noah had never once received such profound attention back when she was wearing Eleonora’s body. As soon as she made a frown, Penelope decided to carefully say something:

“It doesn’t matter, Miss Noah… Compared to Baroness Asil, you— ahem, are much more, uh…”

“…less important?”

“Yes, that’s the word. Wait a— Miss Noah!! You aren’t less important! What I mean is Baroness Asil was such a dirty person!”

“Why are you so antsy? In the end, the truth is I am more easily approachable than Eleonora,” Noah said aloofly as she burned the letter. The high-quality paper disintegrated into a fine dust.

It is difficult to accept kindness and flattery dotted with all kinds of rhetoric as real. Their ultimate goal would be the dragon’s power.

However, if Adrian wanted the power of a pure dragon, the aristocrats were different in that they paid attention to the political power and status of the dragon master brought about by the existence of dragons.

Of course, Noah had no intention of showing off her power to Laurent’s powerful people or gently swaying them. This was because she felt close to a conviction that once she showed a gap, she would suffer endlessly.

As evidence, the letters sent to her maintained her close relationship with the Ministry of Magic, which had been led by Adrian up until not too long ago, and even now, the aristocratic forces supporting him were also included. If Adrian steps down, their position will narrow, so no doubt they must be appeasing her to use some strength.

It doesn’t matter how they try to seduce her. Because all she has to do is ignore them.
