Episode 466: The Increasing Number of Slaves (7)
He rose to the position of duke in the kingdom of Celia.
From that day on, the treatment changed completely.
The king’s tablet came out from the royal family, and if necessary, access to the first-class library with the secrets of Celia’s royal family was possible.
Power next to the king.
Even just by seeing the nobles who had previously objected to what they said and watched them shut their mouths, he could personally realize the power of power.
“Heh heh. This is me.”
Muttering incomprehensible words, Ray put his index finger to his lips.
I thought of getting a noble title, but I didn’t know that I would get a public throne.
The unexpected income brought a smile to Ray’s lips.
In the future, the number of slaves in the Black Room will increase even more.
Since we couldn’t send them all back to the black room, we needed a place to keep the slaves in the black room.
He needed a title and land for him, but now that he had obtained the principality, his worries were alleviated.
Ray looked into the distance.
“It’s time to move in earnest.”
In the meantime, how many days have I been waiting for the action of the black room and just hit back.
Now was the time to put the pressure on yourself.
* * *
While Ray was smiling, there was another person with a smile on his face.
“Heh heh heh. Now that I’ve become the duke, I can say I’m in a position that suits Celestia.”
King Theogard stroked his beard and smiled contentedly.
“Father is a man with great aspirations. How about waiting a little longer?”
Celestia nodded her head as she spoke confidently.
“cancer. I think so too. Even if it is not, I intend to hand over the prisoners of the Black Room that I requested last time. It seems impossible for us to open their mouths.”
King Deogard shook his head, recalling the poisonous servants who did not open their mouths no matter how much he interrogated them.
Is it because they are definitely black people?
There were even those who bit their tongues saying that they would rather die.
In fact, it was only after a few people died that they put a cloth on their mouth.
‘If that’s the case, I might find a solution.’
The King decided to give Ray hope.
“You are right. If you can’t pull it, try pushing it.”
Celestia casually added to the word that the lady-in-waiting had been talking about, saying that it was ‘the crystallization of love’.
“It’s something that might be checked by the Black Room, but I’ll take care of it.”
The king’s trust in Ray was quite strong.
He also appears whenever there is danger and solves the problem.
I subconsciously hoped that he would solve this problem as well.
“There is no land left in Celia, so it took a while to give the unexplored land.”
“If he is, he will surely be able to do well.”
King Deogard smiled at Celestia’s confident words.
“The saint… no, Prince Soleil knows how to stand alone. No, I can say that I only know that because I am standing alone. Every time I looked at him, I felt a sense of loneliness. From now on, you will take good care of me.”
When she said that she felt lonely, Celestia felt her heart ache.
Come to think of it, he was often alone.
Even when surrounded by nobles, at banquets and at war, he was alone.
When she thought that she was moving forward like a tenacious person, suffering from a single body, she put her hands together on her chest.
“yes.”
I will never leave you alone in the future.
Celestia burned her will.
* * *
When King Deogard expressed his intention to take the prisoners of the Black Room, Ray tilted his head.
“Why do things work out so smoothly?”
While thinking about the conditions to exchange with the prisoner of the black room, something unexpectedly happened again.
At this point, I’m getting anxious.
I wonder if this is also something Heukbang planned.
It seems that the suspicious disease has arisen thanks to the things Heukbang has done.
“What are you doing? Since we were on our way to the principality anyway, there is nothing wrong with taking prisoners.”
Ray decided to think positively.
Even if it was something that Heukbang planned in the middle, it would be okay to capture them and turn them into slaves.
I’m enjoying my free time after a long time and drinking tea.
Knock-knock-
There was a couple of quiet knocks outside the door.
“Excuse me, Your Majesty the Gong. I have finished all preparations for departure.”
“I’ll be leaving soon.”
“yes. All right.”
After answering the lady-in-waiting, she put on her white robe and mask while carrying the leather backpack she had set aside.
Thinking of it as his first principality after becoming a king, he even fluttered like a child.
Ray climbed into the most spectacular carriage among the queue of carriages waiting outside.
After roughly throwing a leather rucksack inside, the coachman asks.
“Would you like to leave immediately?”
“Please do so. Oh wait, let’s stop by the Wangdo Street.”
“All right.”
When the coachman slightly touches the horse, the carriage starts slowly.
Following him, the knights given by the royal family of Silia escorted him.
He declined, saying he didn’t need an escort, but it seems that King Celia gave it to him.
“Your Majesty, is this your first time in the Iria Mountains?”
The coachman insinuates.
“This is my first time. I’ve never been near a mountain range, but it’s a wasteland with nothing. Well, even though it’s the territory of the Kingdom of Silia, it’s natural since it’s unexplored.”
“Heh heh heh. There is an elven forest nearby, so be careful. I’ve heard that even a human going around causes chaos.”
It is quite surprising that there is an elven forest.
There was a huge mountain range, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable to have an elven village, but there would be many monsters and slave hunters targeting them.
Still, the fact that they live there probably means that there are high elves who will protect the elves.
Come to think of it, I think I’ve heard that Heprion is nearby.
Thinking that far, Ray felt as if his hair was standing on end.
No way…
‘Among all the elven villages, would it be the romantic perverted village?’
Ray was in denial.
You shouldn’t get caught.
He did not want to spend his first principality life with such a perverted elf.
when he was groaning and shaking his head.
In no time, the carriage arrived at the royal road.
“Get out of the way! His Majesty the Prince has arrived!”
At the words of the escort knights, people were startled and moved out of the way.
Soonbok and Mien, who had finished finding a slave dealer on the streets of the royal capital and carving slave engravings, came out to the streets out of curiosity at the sudden arrival of the king.
Then, his eyes fell on the person in the carriage.
“That’s…”
– Hmmm…
I would have thought he would become the duke who rules the principality just because he hasn’t seen you in a few days.
Thinking of saying something, Soonbok approached the carriage.
Then the escort knight puts his hand on the swordsman and restrains him.
“Back off!”
– Don’t be vigilant. I have something to say to His Majesty the Prince.
Subok was polite, but the escort driver didn’t like him for talking to him.
“You will regret it if you don’t back down.”
I was polite, but when the other person came out like this, Soon-bok, who became the best and had problems controlling his anger, frowned.
Ray stopped the two before the situation erupted.
“He is someone I know. Please get out of the way.”
At the words of the king, the escort knight finally stood aside.
Soonbok, who grumbled, approached Ray and looked at the gorgeous carriage.
Looking at the gold-plated doors and steel wheels of the carriage, it is difficult to tell whether it is a carriage or a chariot.
– What is all this?
Subok’s words were mixed with many meanings.
“I became a princess.”
As if he was frustrated with his casual reply, Soonbok pounded his chest.
– So, why did you become the king? How troublesome is the management of the estate or the work. My older brother is now captured by King Celia.
Ray shook his head at Soonbok, who clicked his tongue, saying that there would be more work in the future.
The principality is recognized as another country within the kingdom of Silia.
Of course, you have to pay that much tax separately to the king, but where is that?
If nurtured well, it would be possible to create a powerful nation with a small piece of land.
‘It would be worth it if I set up a medical academy separately and raise a little bit of funding by bringing in the upper half of the company.’
Ray’s head was already full of thoughts about how to develop the principality.
Soonbok looked at Ray like that and sighed.
– At what time of the world do you accept and eat the land that is given to you?
Ray pointed to the back of the wagon while trying to dissuade Soonbok, who said he had been scammed by the king and said he would immediately go and argue.
“Let’s not do this here, let’s go to the principality first and talk about it.”
Wherever he pointed, I could feel the remnants of magic, albeit weakly.
It is obedience that cannot be understood without knowing its meaning.
I noticed at once that those related to the Heukbang were being transported to the carriage.
It would be about them that the principality should talk about.
– All right.
* * *
After putting the slave in the luggage compartment at the back, Soonbok and Mien climbed into the ultra-luxurious carriage with Ray.
Mien touched the soft chair of the wagon and admired it.
“What chair is so soft? It’s nice to ride a wagon like this and have good money.”
The saintess created by the Black Room uttered the same voice as Hafman.
Soonbok ignored her and said to Ray.
– You have safely completed the work you were instructed to do in the capital. I made the slave traders into slaves and kept them in the capital so that they would not be suspicious of the Black Bang, and I also sold false information to the information guild. It’s been a while for them to notice us, so now is the right time to make a move.
To openly disrupt information in the information guild.
I didn’t even do it, but I did it well.
“You seem to be doing well these days?”
what did you eat wrong?
Why did you do such a pretty thing?
– What do you do when you do a good job? I’ve bought time at best, but I’m trying to manage the territory… the future is already dark.
“Heh heh. It’s only now that I’m saying that. Although the Iria Mountains look barren, they are rich enough for elves to live. Naturally, the soil will also be clean. It’s to the point where I feel sorry for the kingdom of Celia for leaving a place like this. Even Halfman said he was thinking of a new branch, so just calling it our principality would be a perfect environment for growth.”
Watching him start his business in earnest, Soonbok gasped.
– oh my god. You are truly aristocratic.
