Count Benack visited the castle to discuss the new trade route.
Count Benac's port was essential to the new trade route created by my father.
But when he arrived, he also brought the Countess and Billy.
I met them when I was in my father's arms.
“I wanted to apologize for the inconvenience caused at the tea party, So I brought him here to apologize “The Count and his wife placed their gifts at the door.
The countess leaned towards me.
“I need to teach my son better, he was wrong “Then she hit Billy's waist.
Billy bowed his head but didn't seem to want to apologize.
" I'm sorry." I glanced at the minions gathered in the courtyard.
Opening a new trade route is Dobled's core business.
In the future, Dubald united merchants on the basis of this trade route, for which he became the Duke's messenger and requested information.
Of course, it became an additional source of money earned through trade route tolls.
I don't really want to accept Billy's apology, but I nodded anyway.
“You can visit our palace -“When the Count tried to say something, my father said, “I don't remember letting you open your mouth “The Count was shocked.
As soon as he stood there he felt pressure from the Duke's gaze.
' Oh no, Count Pinnack is a very proud person, The deal may fail.’ He patted my father on the shoulder.
“I want to get off “Then the Duke put me down very carefully.
The Count and his wife took a deep breath.
Those who came with the Count were also surprised.
" Oh, my God." “She's really nice …” I shook my father's sleeve.
“I want to go to the greenhouse.
Dad, work hard “.
" Yes." He smiled sweetly and stroked my hair.
I bent my knees while holding up my skirt.
“I'll go in first “The guests looked disappointed, but they couldn't hold me back.
I was young and was not obligated to receive guests.
Dubus will be the one receiving the guest today.
If I grow up a little more, I'll have to take over the role, But for now, I still have time to have fun.
' But I wouldn't really enjoy it.’ I have to approve the documents from Syria.
Over the past five years, she has learned how to control the top from the chairman and maid Yuni, a former shark.
The boss knew well, but Uni was greater.
“Only one has to be stubborn when playing with money.
Only then, people will not touch you “.
“If you can't manage your taxes, it's over.
There is no reason to make money and waste half your money on taxes.
In fact, it wouldn't be good to bump into a tax collector, But in my case …” She doesn't even know I'm running Hope Summit, But she made that clear to me every time I asked her.
' Tomorrow is collection day.
The day the money comes into my hand ' I hummed as I walked up the stairs.
Just when I was about to grab the door handle.
" Hey." I heard Billy's voice.
“Oh?
“When I asked, Billy came over and said, “How were you?
““I thought they said you were here to apologize for being disrespectful last time ““Are you still upset about that?
“What does he say?
When I blinked in confusion, Billy smiled and rubbed my cheek with the back of his hand.
I felt insulted and pushed his hand away.
“You're so cute when you're like this “Is he really crazy?
“You should have told me if you loved me.
Why do you use violence?
I will show you how to seduce a man from now on “.
“……” “Listen to my advice, a woman should be gentle during the day, And to be sexy at night.
This is what you have to do “.
“……” “Violence won't catch my attention.
Okay?
“Does he think I hit him to get his attention?
I laughed at his strange confidence.
“Why should I tempt you?
““Because I'm handsome …” “You are ugly ““Eh, this is ridiculous!
I shook my head.
“It's a fact.
You are so ugly.
You are the ugliest person I have ever met!
“Billy's face turned red when I said that.
“Yes, you shameless orphan!
I think that's all he can answer.
I lost interest in him.
Suddenly, I heard someone's voice behind me.
“Hey, what did you say now?
“Isaac put down the wild boar he was holding and looked at Billy.
Bam!
Billy exploded and groaned heavily on the floor.
Isik approached him.
As the sound of footsteps approached, Billy's face turned pale.
“I asked you what you just said ““I, I, um, I …” Isaac grabbed Billy's trembling shoulder.
It looked like a light touch on the surface, But in an instant I heard Billy's shoulder crack.
“Ugh!
A terrible scream echoed.
" my brother!" I quickly called out to Izek.
If Isek kills him, he cannot escape punishment because he is the Count's son.
It doesn't matter if that future rapist dies, but Isek matters to me.
But Isik won't leave him even if you call him.
I pointed to the maids and knights who came running in astonishment at the noise.
Stop it, stop it!
Those who received my signal rushed to Izik with gloomy faces, As if they were ready to die.
Normally, he would have hit whoever was holding him back but he couldn't now because I was close to him.
When Isaac left Billy, The Count and Countess were greatly surprised to hear their son's cries, and they went hither.
Viscount Dubos also joined us.
“Oh my God, Billy...!” She immediately ran to her crying son.
Count Benac also hurriedly went to his son.
Billy's shoulders were completely twisted.
So much so that I wondered if they could restore it to its original state.
“Ah … Argh! …” The couple was shocked to see their son, who was crying and complaining of pain.
“Doctor!
Call the doctor now!
What are you doing?!
“What happened, how did you do?...!” Billy pointed to a trembling Isaac.
The Benak couple's faces hardened.
“Why the hell did you do this?!
When the Count shouted, Isek stared at them with a cold look.
“Shut up, I tried to kill him, but I couldn't help myself ““What – What?
“Isik didn't explain anything again.
' Stupid!’ I know why he keeps his mouth shut.
Isik didn't want to say a word “An orphan “again.
Viscount Dubos said to Count Benac with an embarrassed face.
“This time, I think the kids are fighting a lot ““Only kids fighting?! replied the Countess angrily.
“My child is in this situation, and it is just a children's fight!
Oh my God.
Some kids are absolutely terrible “.
Count Benack also spoke.
“I will file an official complaint with the imperial family “.
Vicomte Dubus sighed.
If they did, Izek would be taken away.
Of course, the Duke's son would not live in prison like any other criminal.
But the Duke of Dobled would not remain idle.
Another problem is that the person who will receive complaints at the Imperial Office is John Stephan, Marquis Nodley's son-in-law, Who wanted to arrest Doubled.
Now if Izik was caught, he wouldn't leave him alone.
With this incident, he will try to find something to pressure Doubled.
Viscount Dubus stepped forward and raised his hand.
“It will have a negative impact on your child as well as sir.
Relax and let's discuss the compensation process “.
“My child was beaten, I can't close my mouth just because of some compensation!
My son is not just a child.
It is the future and honor of the Benak family!
“Follow Count Benac, “If it wasn't as good as the Founding Emperor's tapestry, How can I get compensation for this?
“Vicomte Dubus's face hardened.
The founding emperor's tapestry was handed over to Duke Dubeld.
He repeatedly tried to obtain tapestries bearing the true name of the Founding Emperor from the Imperial Palace, But he couldn't get it.
It was a demonstration of strength that not even the Imperial Palace could interfere.
The Count looked at him challengingly, as if he wanted to say that the fate of Isaac Dubeld was now in his hands Only after that, “So what will the Benak family do to make up for the waste of our honor?
“I asked him, holding Isik's hand.
Count Benac was surprised by my voice, but he quickly burst out laughing.
“What?
How can your honor be wasted?!
““Your son called me an orphan ““What what …?!
“I am the daughter of Dubald, recognized by my father, the Duke of Dubald, The Emperor approved it.
Who should be reported?
" " impossible!
My son wouldn't do that …!
“Count Benac defended his son before I finished speaking.
“T, those … That girl … No, That girl called me ugly...!” People around us are confused about the situation.
Was it an insult by saying he was ugly?
The countess, who was hugging his son, was also puzzled.
Isaac was about to defend me, But I put my hand on his face and narrowed my eyes.
“Isaac, stop!
I am not an orphan.
I am not afraid of the word!
I didn't have any parents originally, But now I have my parents and siblings.
So I am not an orphan “.
“But ….” “Why should I be afraid when I have my older brothers and my father?
“Isik didn't say anything as I headed towards the Benak family.
“How will you make up for the insult he inflicted on me, as you said?
“Count Benack froze.
No, it's not time for that.
' Before the duke comes, I need to somehow settle this …!’ “Oh, wait, let's talk for a moment.
So this, uh …” “Let's talk about it after your son's life is over “People were stunned by his cold voice.
The Duke and Henry came up to us and stared at them with the coldest eyes.
