Chapter.12 Hidden Face and Dessert

“That is none of your business. All you have to do is listen to me. Do you understand?”

“but… After taking the medicine, the symptoms were the same… .”

“It is also your fault that Count Heung ended up like that. If you had done well, they would have just killed you instead of just destroying your brain. But it can’t be helped since you haven’t been able to give birth to my grandson. Do you understand? That everything is because of you. It’s because of you, Verna. “This is what happened to the count and the boy.”

Count Dedran smiled like that and turned his back again. But at that very moment.

Kwaaaaaaaa!

The wall split with a loud sound. And Count Dedran saw the nobles of Count Gray looking at him with shocked faces beyond the collapsed wall.

“What what?”

El had been casting an eavesdropping spell on the living room from the beginning. This is an eavesdropping magic used by the dragon, not the dragon’s hearing.

It had to be manipulated using magic. So that no one has any doubts. Therefore, rather than having the dragon speak directly, the conversation from the next room flowed into the room.

A dragon’s hearing can be used even at a considerable distance, but eavesdropping magic, one of the auxiliary magics, cannot be used unless at a close distance, like now, with a wall in between.

Anyway, everything was successful. At the critical moment, I used magic to shatter the wall. It was clearly imprinted that it was Count Dedran and Verna who had this conversation.

At this moment, dozens of people have heard Count Dedran’s confession of his crimes. It is impossible to say it out loud.

“Your Excellency Count Deadran! “How can this be!”

“This is not a clear violation of authority; it is murder!”

The nobles of the Earl of Gray rose up one by one. They all started to get angry. The only ones who stayed still were the nobles who had clung to Count Dedran.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! You guys! “What kind of skit is this?”

As he said that, Count Dedran looked at his daughter. The face of Count Dedran, whom I had never seen in my life.

Berna stared straight at that face for the first time in her life and opened her mouth.

“I am of the Earl of Gray. My father made it like that. It was my father who made me marry into the Earl of Gray. So, I will live as a member of the Great Count family for the rest of my life. “I will live my life thinking that dedicating everything I have to the count family is my punishment for tolerating my father’s actions all this time!”

“What’s wrong?”

Count Dedran literally kicked his daughter’s body. Verna’s body falls back to the ground. Count Dedran huffed and glared at his daughter and the other nobles who were lying on the floor.

“Your Excellency the Count! I will formally report this matter to the imperial palace. “Not only about tax embezzlement, but also about the murder of the Earl of Gray and Baron Gray!”

Viscount Rhodri, who was a loyalist to the Earl of Gray, shouted that on behalf of him. But Count Dedran snorted and answered.

“Why not try? What kind of power are these narrow-minded vassals of Gray City trying to move the imperial palace? And what about tax fraud? Is there any evidence? It’s all that bitch’s doing. That bitch. And even if there is evidence, this world is one where powerful power covers everything.”

The count blushed and huffed at the absurd failure of his plan, but without ceasing to laugh at the nobles of Grace City, he confidently walked out. And he doesn’t forget to leave a message to Verna.

“And you bitch, how dare you disturb me? You are dead, Verna. “I will kill you, Count Gray, and his son.”

After saying those words, Count Dedran stomped out of the lord’s castle.

Since he was an earl, there was nothing the viscounts and barons could do to stop him right away.

As the Viscount shouted to Count Dedran, there was nothing he could do but report it to the capital and wait for punishment.

Because that is the world of nobility.

That’s the same even if it’s a Gray boy. Even if one inherits the earldom, fellow earls have no choice but to ask the imperial palace to sort out disputes.

In the case of nobles who have lost their ties, they will not be able to use any power in this case.

In the first place, it was because of that string of power that Count Dedran was able to win the dispute with Count Gray and marry Verna.

In that situation, El pulled out the knife stuck in the Gray boy’s thigh. And I had Lurin release the time stop.

After a while, the Gray boy stood up fine. When El nodded, the Gray boy proudly shouted to the nobles.

“I, Baron Great Dierran, speak through the power of the Great Count. “Bring in those who have been clinging to Count Dedran right now!”

With that order, the soldiers rushed in. The nobles were separated from the private soldiers when they came up here.

And that private soldier is now being attacked individually outside. The treacherous nobles who had initially thought that the Gray Boy had fallen did not bring that many guards, so they were easily defeated by the Gray Boy, who had mobilized the Count’s knights as much as possible.

Thanks to this, the purge of Count Dedran’s group, who had evaded taxes from Great City and sympathized with the Count, began to proceed smoothly.

“Your Excellency, Lord Deputy!”

And the nobles, who confirmed that the Gray boy was fine, were surprised and began to cheer.

***

Count Dedran returned to his lordship huffing and puffing.

In the empire, you can have your own castle starting from the earldom. What barons and viscounts can own is only a mansion, not a castle.

Count Dedran returned to his castle because he was a count, but he continued to curse because he felt ridiculous. Because I never thought that a tool that I had never been able to look up to my entire life would ruin the work I had planned for decades.

‘That’s funny. funny! This is ridiculous! What are you accusing me of? This time, I will use the power of connections I have acquired through the money I have invested so far to make Berna the culprit of everything and make all the nobles of Great City accomplices so that I can destroy her!’

They stole enough money to eat it anyway. It would still feel a little less bad if all the people who messed up were sent to death row.

Count Dedran thought so and sent someone to the capital.

The reason they sent more than half of the taxes stolen from Gray City for over 10 years was to use the power of power at a time like this.

A few days later, someone arrived from the capital.

Of course, Count Dedran welcomed the messenger grandly. Count Dedran looked satisfied as he gave a banquet to those who brought the soldiers.

He then welcomed the representative of the party who visited his study.

“What did His Highness the Duke say about this incident? This is a big deal. Big deal. “Didn’t I teach my daughter wrongly and this evil thing completely ruined Grace City?”

“That didn’t work out.”

The capital messenger facing Count Dedran slowly nodded.

“So I think we need to punish everyone. No, not only my daughter but everyone in Grace City deserves to be punished.”

“That’s right. “If Count Dedran has been loyal to you all this time, it is a request that must be granted.”

“Is that so? “Thank you for this!”

The reason he went under the duke’s wing, a powerful figure in the capital, and gave him money was to use the duke as his tool as well.

Count Dedran was filled with thoughts of wanting to kill Verna right away.

The capital’s messenger also nodded and began to laugh.

“But.”

“yes?”

“Your Highness is feeling uneasy these days.”

A lion whose expression suddenly changes. Count Deadran tilted his head as if wondering what that meant.

“They say there are dozens of witnesses in Gray City’s complaint, but with the power of His Highness the Duke, that would be covered up in one fell swoop. All we have to do is declare Gray City a problem area and completely destroy it.”

“Yes, that’s right. That’s exactly what you need to do. I am definitely your loyal subject. “I will give even more if you help me with this project.”

“Well, I guess so. “Your Majesty has been taking sufficient care of the Count since you have done so much.”

‘It was, right?’

Count Dedran wondered why it was in past tense. Because I didn’t even know what I wanted to say.

“But unfortunately this day is different. Count Dedran. “I am here to transport you to the capital.”

“what? “What on earth does that mean!”

Count Dedran jumped up from his seat with a bewildered expression. Then the woman who was sitting also stood up and glared at Count Dedran.

“That’s rude. Count Dedran. Do you know who I am? This Medrine Serial is not someone who should be treated poorly by someone like you. Plus, Count Dedran! You have offended His Majesty. Your Majesty is reluctant to even have anything to do with Grace City. This means that I, the head of the Royal Court Magic Corps, have come here in person because it is related to Great City. Do you understand?”

“What is that… ! “What on earth are you talking about!”

“Kneel.”

Medrine chanted the auxiliary magic with a look of disdain. In an instant, Count Dedran’s body collapsed downward.

“I can’t stand it when borderline nobles are rude to me. Let me tell you one thing: You messed with a city you should never mess with. Even if you are the emperor of an empire, Great City cannot touch you. I can’t tell you what it is, but there are things in this world that should never be touched. Something like that. What do you do? Drivers? Bring down the author immediately. “Your Majesty has ordered that you be transported to the capital and punished according to imperial laws!”

Lion of the capital.

Medrine, the only 7th class wizard in the empire, is someone who avoids the Gray Sea when she sleeps.

“You guys! Do you think you can get away with doing this to me? Trivial things. “Tools can just be used by me as tools!”

Count Dedran was dragged away screaming. Medrine quietly looked at it and shook her head.

Medrine had no interest in the human race, but in order to please him, Medrine thought that the maximum punishment should be given to the author.

That is the way to live peacefully as a wizard in this world.

Count Dedran was dragged into a prisoner convoy under Medrine’s orders. The prisoner convoy is no different from a mobile prison pulled by horses.

The people of Deadran City began to cheer in unison as they saw Deadran being dragged away by the knights who had come down from the capital of the empire. It was a reaction to the oppression of the past.

“Uuuuuu!”

“go away! go away! go away!”

Wow!

Wow!

A rock flies into Count Dedran’s convoy. Not only rocks, but everything that could be grasped was flying.
