Chapter 151 – #150 Marien Ephelis
“I don’t mind paying several times more, so bring it right away!”
The maid, who received the young lady’s special order, quickly moved her body.
It was about 3 hours later that she returned.
“What happened?”
“Well… I think it would be difficult to diagnose within the academy because there are so many people watching.”
“Ah… I see. Look at my mind.”
He is no one else, he is the hottest Florian hero these days, regardless of the nobles, the commoners, or the imperial family.
From his perspective, he had no idea what kind of rumors would spread if he suddenly entered the lodgings of a young lady he didn’t know.
“Then what should we do?”
“If you make an appointment, he said he will visit the mansion at that time.”
“I understand.”
Then Marian sent her maid again to ask when she could meet as soon as possible.
“It will be possible starting tomorrow. After the academy ends.”
“Have you ever asked that too? Is it possible for all of your friends to do it at the same time?”
“Ah, I did ask about that, but it’s a bit weird to see so many ladies at once. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to visit each family individually?”
“Well… Then there’s nothing we can do. Then tomorrow evening… No, we have to prepare, so let’s have dinner the day after tomorrow.”
“I understand, miss. I’ll tell you that!”
And Marian told this to her other six friends.
Giving her thumbs up, she likes it.
“Hey, Marian. Where have your skills as a maid gone?”
“That’s right. In the past, thanks to their maid, we got a group dress tailored from Ereborn.”
“That’s right. Now the value of the name has risen so much that I can’t match it.”
Marian felt a strain on her shoulders.
Being faster than others in a noble family means you have that much ability.
Women excited like a festival.
However, one woman among them is an exception.
“Now, wait a minute. Kale and cranberry…?”
Isabelle looks embarrassed.
Why is that so? He is the one who made them pregnant.
But now they have decided to conduct a pregnancy test.
Her friends laugh when they see that expression.
“Oh, you surprised Isabelle, who has been gloomy all day long! I guess Florian’s heroism is really great, isn’t it?”
“That’s right. Giggling.”
“Oh, no… That’s not it…”
But how can those friends know her true feelings?
Marian hugged Isabelle’s shoulder and shouted.
“I decided to do it first, so you guys decide the order.”
“Okay. Then I’m second!”
“Then I’m the last one!”
“Hey, honestly, let’s give Isabelle the last one.”
“Oh, no… I’m fine with any order…”
The green-eyed girl with her golden, or rather orange, hair raised her hands and said it was okay, but her friends pushed her into her final turn.
So she says.
“We’ll figure out the assistant’s characteristics, her likes and dislikes, and teach you, so give it a try!”
“Oh, no…”
“Thank you so much, you don’t have to. We might catch it before that happens! Giggling.”
But all the women knew.
The difference between approaching someone knowing about them and approaching them without knowing is truly world-class.
In other words, this version was essentially a push for Isabel.
Feeling guilty about that, Isabel lowered her head and spoke in a voice like a mosquito.
“… Yes, thank you, kids.”
“Ah. Our Isabel is completely dead. She has become a pure child!”
“That’s right. Cheer up! They’re not commoners, what’s that?”
“Now, cheer up. For our rosy future!”
Her friends slap Isabelle on the arm with her playful face.
In front of them, she could only smile awkwardly.
“Ah, ahaha. For…!”
***
“Hmm…”
– Aslan? What’s wrong?
‘No. ‘Nothing.’
I’ve been feeling out of place lately.
It feels like someone is hiding and quietly watching me.
Perez said after reading my thoughts.
– Could it be the grandmother… No, maybe Karta, the god of darkness?
‘Is that so?’
– Maybe he came here after hearing my call last time and became interested in you, the demigod who signed a contract with me.
It made sense.
Unless God is such a common being.
No, but they are looking at this too blatantly.
I turn my head and look back.
Then the eyes watching me disappeared.
Even if you tried to look for him with the naked eye, it was difficult to pinpoint who he was because there were so many people walking around the market.
‘If it goes on like this for a while, they come back and ask when they did that again.’
However, it is a place with few people. For example, it seemed like a building inside the academy, but when I entered, I didn’t feel it again.
So it was a bit ambiguous.
‘He is clearly not an ordinary person with superior hiding skills, but is he really Karta?’
I don’t know.
I shook my head and started walking towards my destination again.
And I was able to arrive soon.
At the mansion of Marian, who is rumored to be the most vicious of Isabelle’s group.
“Who are you?”
“It’s kale and cranberry.”
“Ah! Please come in. The lady is waiting.”
Guided by the butler, you traverse the huge garden.
Even though the sun is setting, it is quite gorgeous, and I can’t help but think that nobles are nobles.
There are numerous nobles in the capital.
About half of them are central power aristocrats with no fiefdoms. The other half are local nobles who have fiefdoms but little power and stay in the capital for a certain period of time.
If one had to choose the more powerful one among the two groups, it would be the central nobility.
Power is power. It is natural to have power as one is close to the emperor.
Now, Marian’s family, Ephelis, is also a central noble family. Maybe that’s why I was fully feeling its majesty right now.
– Aslan. But I don’t understand.
‘What?’
– Why are these people so extravagant when they don’t even have territory? Are you holding a mine full of gold?
‘Well, I don’t know about mines, but I guess I can see that there is something similar.’
Central nobles receive funds directly from the imperial family.
And the funds are raised through taxes and tribute from the estates of local nobles.
In other words, it means that the salary is paid by taxes paid by local nobles.
– Under. Are these guys really thieves? Aren’t local kids angry?
‘What’s there to be angry about? Most of them are relatives.’
In addition, there was no room for dissatisfaction as the central nobles inserted local noble children into key positions in the empire.
On the contrary, he even offered money separately to ask for good care.
– That’s interesting. Then, how much do we, Lightnyeon, get paid? Still, since it is the most prestigious ducal family, is it 5 times more expensive than an ordinary count?
‘What is 5 times? It’s probably 20 times more, right?’
– Eh? Really?
‘Uh. Although the Belane are central nobles, they also have fiefdoms.’
A noble family so large that it owns a fief despite being a central noble family.
They are called great nobles.
The Hadrens are a great noble family with a long tradition that has been going on since the founding of the empire.
– Oh my god. So does this mean Linnell also has territory?
‘Well, that’s right.’
Although Lenatri is only a count family on the outside, she is definitely a great noble family.
That’s why her husband was able to serve as the second-in-command at the academy, and the lord of Florian couldn’t even say a word.
– Oh, oh. When I asked why my sister’s anus was so delicious, she said she was a popular woman.
“This way.”
Enter the building.
There is a chandelier studded with precious stones, and gorgeous lighting illuminates the entrance.
It was an opportunity to realize once again how extravagant the central nobility was.
‘Ugh. If we had just taken those items from each house and used them to cover the costs of the war, we would have won victory a long time ago.’
It’s surprising that the country hasn’t collapsed yet.
The butler ahead of me glances at me and continues speaking.
“Well… The Count and his wife have work to do today and haven’t come in yet. And the employees…”
I think I know what you’re talking about.
Usually, when an important guest arrives, the nobles would greet him at the entrance.
The same goes for employees.
However, doing so could cause strange rumors, so it meant that precautions were taken in advance.
“Thank you for your consideration.”
“No, I’m sorry. I can’t even treat you properly… I’ll even give you tea separately…”
“It’s okay. We’ll just chat for a while and then go.”
“Oh, yes. Then have a good time.”
The butler left like that, and I took a deep breath and knocked on the door once.
Then, a young woman’s voice came from inside.
“Who are you?”
“It’s kale.”
“Ah. Come in!”
Open the door Step inside.
To the left and right, a room full of red roses and pink colors comes into view.
The pleasant scent of a young woman fills the air, and perhaps that’s why I feel like I’ve entered a flower field.
And there was a woman standing in the center.
The head of Isabel’s gang, a woman who treats commoners like dogs and harasses them whenever she gets the chance.
She greets you with her polite manners.
With a calm smile on your lips.
“Nice to meet you, Baron! The girl is Marian Ephelis. It is truly an honor to meet the hero of Florian.”
“Yes, nice to meet you. This is Kale Cranberry.”
– Oh. If you look at it this way, he is very polite, but I don’t know why he can’t be bothered by commoners.
‘People are inherently different on the outside and the inside, right? In particular, among the nobles, there are less than 100 people in this large empire who are the same inside and out.’
A few months ago. She took the initiative to sell Isila, a commoner student at the academy, to her brothel, and she was severely punished by me.
But maybe it was the woman at that time, as Perez said, now she was overflowing with benevolence like a saint.
It’s quite a contrast to the devil-like smile of the time, and it just gives me goosebumps.
The woman said with a bright smile.
“I heard you are working as a teaching assistant at the academy. Is this true?”
“Yes, that’s right. And now I am also the wizard who will diagnose the young lady’s physical condition.”
“Please take care of me. To be honest, it’s my first time getting this test, so I’m really worried…”
“Just accept it with a relaxed mind. It may be a little embarrassing.”
Marian and I burst out laughing together.
And the moment the awkwardness of the first meeting was resolved, the proposal was made.
“Then shall we start with the diagnosis right away?”
“Yes? But I’ll just have some tea…”
“Wouldn’t it be a relief for both you and me to finish our work?”
Of course it’s false.
I just want to get on top of this bitch and shake my hips quickly.
“Hmm… I see. Then this way.”
Her sturdy buttocks flutter the hem of her skirt, twitching and twitching, catching my attention.
I swallowed dry saliva and followed Mariane ahead of me into her bedroom.
The appearance of a bedroom full of red roses, similar to the atmosphere of the room, comes into view.
I walked over to the bed in the center, knocked on it, and said.
“Would you please lie down here, my lady?”
“Well… Can you please call me Marian instead of Lady? I’ll call you Cale, too.”
“Haha. I understand, Marian.”
“Please speak comfortably and act comfortably too!”
“Okay.”
I nodded at her, saying I understood.
Only then did Marian lie down on the bed and smile with satisfaction.
I looked at her like that, smiled brightly, and said to her,
‘Then look forward to the fact that you will be able to use this body comfortably in the future whenever you need it.’
After the baby is born, I will get you pregnant again.
I will be giving birth to my babies for the rest of my life.
Giving birth and giving birth again. Until death.
– Oh my!
“Then let’s start the diagnosis now.”
A somewhat special diagnosis. Hehe.
