Chapter 118 : A Good Person (5) (1/2)
“H with Viscount Holten?”
“Yes That’s right”
With a slightly nervous expression, Baba answered
“It’s not bad, but…”
The glasses man on the chair rubbed his chin
Baba unconsciously took a dry gulp
A ti size
He was that afraid of the glasses ency and the best inforent in Miller Castle, as in front of hi in his eyes, Hooke fiddled with his glasses’ frame
It was one of his habits that caht
Aand Viscount Holten fails?”
Did he perhaps expect the question?
Baba immediately answered
“We will cut off our tail”
“Cut off our tail?”
“Yes We have already cleaned up the articles and records related to the plan If the plan goes wrong, ill immediately dispose of them”
An immediate answer
A confident face
Only then did Hooke show a look that was slightly relieved
But there were still s that needed to be checked
“There are a significant number of nobles that hold a close relationshi+p with us A them are counts as well as marquises and dukes”
Baba nodded instead of answering
He too had clearly ency’s list of custo shot nobles whose nahtly
“What’s your reason for leaving the Viscount Holten instead?”
With an expression that seemed to emphasize how obvious the ansas, Baba replied
“There is the advantage of hi nobles, butHe is……”
His expression turned strange
That was a certain kind of sneer
“A man ouldn’t even refuse a poisoned apple for success”
It was true
In the case of higher nobles who had already achieved much and had er for a greater success
But those like Anthony, whose a, wanted to acco achievements even if they had to overextend thenized that and threw out the bait, Anthony had i a foul smile, Hooke nodded his head
“Well, that’s probably why he’s thoughtlessly ju at a shabby plan like this Kuk”
A sneer leaked out
“And the reactions from the princes?”
It was a fact that most nobles, no, almost all residents of Miller knew that Roan was on Prince Simon’s side and Anthony was on Prince Tohly possible that the princes would take sohtly nervous look
“Surprisingly, there is no reaction It see the situation”
“Really? I wasn’t sure about the other princes, but I thought that there would some reaction from Prince Simon’s faction……”
Hooke made a surprised expression
However ency held and controlled Miller Castle’s information, it obviously didn’t know very much about the situation inside the palace
“Anyhow, I quite like how you handled the work this time”
Hooke looked at Baba and nodded his head
Only then did a look of relief appear on Baba’s face
‘He’s doing it again’
Hooke didn’this nose, he asked in a small voice
“The spies on Baron Tale are still properly attached, right?”
“Yes They have continued to bring various information until now”
Baba nodded his head with a confident face
“This tihly If he shows even a small suspicious movement, tell them to report immediately”
“Yes I understand”
Baba answered with a slightly nervous look
It was a brief ed too often
Hooke tried to say so, but soon afterwards waved his hand instead
A sign telling hi his head, Baba bowed and exited the office
Hooke, as left alone, bit down on his lower lip
‘Baba I was planning on ency’s next master since he received quite a lot of the ood talent, but……’
It see and soft His vicious side is lacking’
The heart was too weak to carry the group
At his single expression and word, Baba repeated being delighted, nervous, and afraid
‘It seeuy’
Hooke planned to slowly increase the Janis Inforreat
But whether his talent was enough to follow that ambition was unknown
‘Daritted his teeth
‘Even though we haven’t even gotten to where the traps are’
He didn’t expect Roan to possibly take out a spear in front of nobles
Of course, the nobles of that era weren’t the type to look away frohly held up
However, Anthony thought that Roan, who only recently became a noble, would remain docile
And just like that, he hadn’t understood Roan properly
If he was someone who had watched Roan until now, he absolutely wouldn’t have ridiculed or mocked Roan’s subordinates
“Baron Tale”
Forcing a smile, Anthony shook his hands
“Ted simply made a mistake because his personality is a bit rash, so please kindly forgive him”
For now, he had to calm Roan down
‘Only then could I drop him into the trap, kill him, and cover it up as an accident or whatnot’
But Roan’s expression was still cold
“I’ll have to get an apology”
“Yes Of course he’ll have to apologize”
Anthony inaled towards Ted with his eyes
Ted deeply bowed towards Roan
“I’m sorry I have shown you a bad side of……”
When he spoke up to that point
“Stop”
Roan shook his head and stopped him
He pointed at Harrison with his chin
“You should be apologizing to Harrison instead of ritted his teeth
To Roan, as a noble, he could lower his head as many times as needed
But that was different for Harrison
‘I have to lower my head to the coht
And even though it was only an honorary title that couldn’t be passed down, he had the title of a baronet 1
He couldn’t lower his head to Harrison
But
‘damn it If it only wasn’t for the planned trap……’
For now, appeasing Roan ca hiently pressing look
‘Dahtly toward Harrison
His face had blushed and was contorted
“I, I’m sorry I became excited and said too much”
Harrison looked at Ted with a cal his head at hireatly anxious inside
And at the sa exhilaration
‘That prideful and arrogant knight bowed his head’
And to hiht he wouldn’t had even dared to iine
Of course
‘It’s probably to calm down rasp of their schehtly raised his hand
“It’s okay”
As soon as he said so, Ted ih
His face was still brightly blushi+ng
Glancing at Roan and Anthony once, he returned to his original place
His entire body trembled from the humiliation
If he could, he wanted to immediately draw his sword
‘I’ll wait just a bit, just a bit more’
Once Roan and Harrison fell into the traps, he planned to stab the sword into their bodies
Then, he heard Anthony’s voice
“Really, that rash personality is quite troublesohed aloud and changed the naled with his eyes to the nobles that ca
The nobles, who beca the mood, soon noticed and nodded their heads
“Yeah That should be good”
“There are only deer here, so why don’t we go a bit more towards the east?”
A conversation that naturally flowed
There wasn’t a single part that was strange
But inwardly, Roan was o towards the traps’
He too had no need to specifically refuse
That place was already Roan’s, not Anthony’s, territory
Roan looked at Anthony and the nobles and nodded
“Then, let us go east”
Paat!
An extremely crumpled piece of paper hit a wall and bounced off
“So he is going to co was Baron Elton Coat
“I betrayed Prince Si that I’er needed now that the job is done? Hmph!” 2
The ball of paper Elton threas a letter fro hierous
He ran away from Simon for now and returned to his land in the north, but not knohen he ated, he passed the days in fear
With a sense of grasping at straws, he kept sending letters to Kallum, but Kallu that tiether with Elton, liquified his assets and his territory, and ran away to the Byron Kingdom
