Records of the Weakest Emperor

Chapter 220: Way to Wealth?

Thursday finally arrived and Calvin received a mail from the Department of Justice stating that he had to report at the 3rd District Police Station located at the southern tip of the Southern Borough.

Just like how the lands of Joselian were divided with their own region governors and city mayors, the lands of Ashmelion were also divided into smaller districts...

Each Borough has seven districts with equal land distribution.

Of course, the amount of wealth concentrated in a particular district wouldn't always be equal due to how wealth was divided among the wealthy and the commoners. But in terms of land, the districts were roughly equal to each other.

The 3rd District of the Southern Borough was quite far away, but it wasn't a problem to the well-off Calvin.

He was tasked to report to the police station by noon for a medical examination along with other recruited auxiliary police trainees in preparation for the commencement of the special training program.

This special training program would last for three months, and it would be based entirely on police training.

All activities would be carried out inside the barracks prepared by the Government of Ashmelion beforehand, and thus...

The trainees would be completely isolated from the outside world.

Calvin let out a sigh seeing the letter of invitation.

"Is that it?" Charlotte asked with worry on her face.

"Yeah... It seems that today is really the day that I'll be gone again." Calvin quickly put away the letter. He had informed Charlotte that he was about to join yet again another business caravan. The only difference was that his trip this time was longer than the previous.

"With how you've improved so far, I am confident that you'll be able to make it far without me supporting you, Charlotte." Calvin smiled.

Charlotte shook her head, "Don't say that, dear. Meeting you is my luck. If not for you, would I be able to reach where am I today?"

"Silly..." Calvin chuckled, "You should try to treasure your efforts more. I only showed you the way, I didn't hold your hands all the way there."

"Hehehe..." Charlotte felt good while Calvin was rubbing the crown of her head.

At first, she found it awkward that someone who was supposedly younger than her was rubbing her head. But now that she knew that both of them were roughly at the same age.

The awkwardness seemed to have disappeared as Charlotte became more open and bolder.

"Take care of Cecilia while I'm gone... When I return, we'll go out and take a long vacation with her together."

Calvin smiled and he got off the bed.

He looked down for he seemed to have stepped on something.

It was Charlotte's corset.

"Oh, your clothes... I stepped on it, I'm sorry." Calvin quickly handed her the corset.

"Ah! It's okay..."

Charlotte was swift to snatch the corset away from him as a furious blush spread on her face.

"Say, don't you feel very uncomfortable wearing something so tight like that?" Calvin couldn't help but ask.

"Yeah... But I can't afford to not wear this, since I don't want to be arrested..." Charlotte revealed a bitter smile.

Calvin nodded.

Indeed, a law that didn't make sense existed in Ashmelion. Women weren't allowed to go out without a corset, but prostitutes were legal as long as there was consent and they were paying their taxes. Furthermore, the law was only focused on a woman's upper body.

As long as the woman had something to cover her jugs, she could go commando underneath which didn't make sense to Calvin.

"Would you like something that's not as restricting as that?" Calvin mused for a moment before he proposed.

"Something that's not as restricting as the corset? Does something like that even exist?"

Charlotte stared at Calvin in intrigue.

"Yup... Do you want me to draw it up for you? Here's what it looks like..." Calvin nodded.

He took a pen and paper from a nearby cabinet as his hands danced on the piece of paper. In just three minutes, the design of underwear for the ladies was completedit was none other than the bra!

"Interesting... So this bowl-like contraption covers it? And the strap, why is it so thin? Will it really be able to hold them down together?"

"Yeah... Wait, why do you look like you can make this?"

"Because I can!" Charlotte proudly declared, "I've always made the clothes that Cecilia and I were using back then at the Northern Borough. I couldn't really afford proper clothes back then, so I have to make do with sewing rags together and make sure that they resemble something similar to clothes in looks..."

"But this one looks easy enough, I can probably copy it!"

"Really?" Calvin looked at Charlotte in astonishment, "Well feel free to try and create this thing. You can probably turn this into a hefty sideline once you master its creation. Do you like a capital? I can give you some money for you to start a clothing line."

A smile spread on Calvin's face as he beamed in excitement. How did he forget that the world of Las Felipinas was still an archaic civilization compared to Earth?

If he "invented" some of the convenient tools from Earth to Las Felipinas, then he could probably sell them like pancakes here...

What's more, since it has not even been a decade since the world of Las Felipinas was discovered. The Earthlings still hadn't started their cultural revolution.

If Calvin "invented" these things in Las Felipinas and got ahead of them, he could probably become the richest man in Las Felipas and Earth at the same time!

Well, there was a bit of an exaggeration there.

But if Calvin did all of these, then he could guarantee his retirement in the future.

Smiling in Charlotte's direction, he instructed, "All right, dear... I'll give you a capital that you can use to start a clothing line. Then, I'll create the designs for us. Once I'm back from my business trip, we can go and start our own company together!"

Charlotte nodded her head. She looked thrilled and excited. Having discussed a plan of action for the future, the couple wanted to sneak in a few rounds of intimacybut alas, a young lass woke up...

Cecilia barged through the door with a kick and she was yawning as she hopped onto the bed with the still naked Charlotte and Calvin before sleeping in between the couple.

Only a few seconds passed since Cecilia opened the door, yet she had already displayed a magnificent display of skills in the art of cockblocking!

Calvin bitterly smiled.

Charlotte also didn't know what to say.

In the end, the couple got off the bed and started to prepare for the coffee shop's morning rush.

Calvin was unable to join both Cecilia and Charlotte for breakfast since he was summoned by Ron Samuel to the second floor.

"Hello, there Calvin! Are you prepared to go over to the 3rd District today and start your exciting dormitory life with the other trainees for the next three months?" Ashlynn almost immediately teased the moment she saw Calvin walk into the room, "Did you at least give Cecilia a baby brother before you are going to leave for police training?"

Calvin glared at her, "Why would I do that when that's such an obvious death flag?"

He rolled his eyes at Ashlynn and proceeded to ignore the latter.

"D-Death flag?" Ashlynn was baffled.

"Calvin, look at this guy here! He actually decided to let Rosales go after he gave you an erroneous mission order!" James pointed at Martin.

Martin bitterly smiled, "Don't say it like that, James. You're making me look like I didn't do my best to help Calvin in my own way. There's really nothing that I could do about it, all right?"

"It's true that the mission details were erroneous but I cannot find any evidence that says that the mission order was discovered erroneous right before it was issued..."

"In short, since the problems were discovered right when the mission order was received and accepted. Rosales is indemnified from any responsibilities or crimes since his actions weren't born out of malice..."

"Instead, it was an honest mistake and a complete accidentand that is what the leader of the Lawyer's Guild, Gilbert Quarentas said when we fought earlier in the Tribunal..."

"Sigh, it's such a headache to quarrel with that bastard." Martin rubbed his glabella.

"So are you saying that we cannot legally punish that bastard for his mistake?"

James asked with a frown.

Ron Samuel nodded, "Just let it go, James. That old coward's time will soon come."

"That's right!" Martin raised a finger and presented it to the Cavaliers, "Don't do anything stupid in the next six months. I beg you to please not do anything stupid!"

"I've barely managed to bargain something from the council meeting earlier and if you guys do something drastic that's damaging to the church or to the church's reputation, then it would be over for all of you!"

"I know..." Ron Samuel let out a sigh, "What a pain..."

"Wait, sir Maritn... Did you just say that you've managed to bargain something?"

Bruce asked in curiosity.

"Yup!" Martin swept his gaze across the Cavaliers in delight, "I've managed to convince his Eminence and the holder of the 1st Seat, Mikael to help you!"

"I've told them that if you are able to uproot the organization behind what happened in the Village of Tulog then they will forget about the crimes that the Cavaliers had committed!"

"Impossible..." Ron Samuel furrowed his eyebrows, "Every crime that a member of the Judiciaries have committed will always be sent over to the Headquarters of the Judiciaries and the Supreme Court of Justice..."

"A mere Cardno his Eminence shouldn't be able to influence secular matters to that extent."

"Yes, you're right..." Martin smiled, "I didn't expect you to be quite knowledgeable in regards to the complicated workings between the church and the government, but have you already forgotten about 'Clemency'?"

"Clemency..." Ron Samuel fell into deep contemplation and a grave look appeared on his face, "Will His Eminence really use his one and only appeal for Clemency for the sake of this branch's Cavaliers?"

"Well, it's not that easy to convince his Eminence... Of course, he didn't agree with my proposal at first. However..." Martin chuckled, "I pulled some strings behind the scenes and I got him to agree."

Ron Samuel furrowed his eyebrows, "Martin, you..."

"What?"

"Nothing..." Ron Samuel shook his head. A smile soon spread on his face.

He noticed that the stripes on Martin's armband had gone from five stripes to four!

In short, Martin had sacrificed quite a bit in order to convince Cardinal Santiago into giving his support to the Cavaliers!

"Why are you looking like me that way? You've got to remember this, but I would never swing that way! I like women! With titties and a pussy!" Martin pointed a finger at Ron Samuel.

Ashlynn was shell-shocked by what she had heard.

A blush couldn't help but spread on her cheeks.

The Chief Executor of the Department of Justice whom Ashlynn thought to be a cultured and honorable middle-aged man was actually a crass and perverted man in secret!

What the hell was going on?

Ashlynn suddenly found the world around her incomprehensible.

"Old bastard, you'll stay here for the night."

"Oh?" Martin smiled, "It's rare for you to send invites. Did something good happen?"

"It doesn't matter," Ron Samuel shook his head, "We're going to drink ourselves crazy tonight!"
