Chapter 186: A Small Goal (1)
But he could not leave right away.
“Why are you trying to leave so early?”
A person with a bright smile approached Cale.
Antonio Gyerre was heading toward the carriage. Cale started to frown while watching him approach.
‘Do they not get along?’
Billos thought that the two nobles did not get along based on their expressions.
They were each close confidants of different princes. Furthermore, Cale had caused chaos in the territory by revealing the human trafficking in the Gyerre territory, thus making the Gyerre household face pressure from the crown and the rest of the nobles in the southwest region.
‘…This is weird.’
Billos found something weird about his thought process.
‘Why only pressure the southwest?’
The northwest and northeast regions were quiet. The central region was currently under strict scrutiny after the crown prince had personally sent out an investigation squad in rage.
Why were the other regions so quiet?
‘…I see.’
He soon realized the answer.
There were no Dukes or Marquises in the northeast region. That was why there was no, ‘leader.’
However, all of the nobles in the northeast region were wary of what Count Henituse would think of their actions.
On the other side, Marquis Stan's household held full control of the northwest region and Taylor Stan, the head of the Stan household, was one of the crown prince's people.
Billos recalled what his uncle Odeus, the man who had taken control of the northwest region's underworld, had said to him in the past.
Odeus had casually said it as he happily gave Billos access to his own house when Billos was looking to create secret residences in the Mogoru Empire and the Paerun Kingdom.
‘Of course I need to do it if it is something related to young master Cale. That is the only way for me to survive in the northwest region.’
The words that he had not paid much attention to in the past suddenly came in like a hook.
Billos had worked with Cale multiple times, but he did not know everything Cale had done, nor did he know about all of Cale's connections.
‘…Have I ever worked with someone without knowing much about them?’
Billos felt chills on his back after having that thought. It was at that moment.
He heard Cale mumbling quietly while looking at the approaching Antonio Gyerre.
“…So annoying.”
He really seemed to be annoyed.
Billos’s expression changed a bit after hearing that. This wasn’t the type of annoyance you felt from running into your enemy and being put in a terrible situation. It was more like the annoyance you feel when someone wakes you up.
Antonio's actions were different than Billos had expected as well.
Cale and Antonio. The two of them do not get along.
That was what Billos thought. However, the sight in front of him was slightly different than what he had expected.
“Young master Cale, shouldn’t you check up on things before you leave?”
Cale got off the carriage in order to follow proper etiquette and stood in front of Antonio.
“I'm sure that it was done properly since it was the Gyerre household that did it. With that being the case, is there a reason for me to check?”
“…I see. You trust in my family.”
Antonio felt an odd sensation after hearing that Cale trusted his family to take care of things properly. He heard a voice behind him at that moment.
“We are planning on locking the gates for a while.”
Antonio turned around. Everybody who was there bowed respectfully at the same time. Cale bowed as well.
Sonata Gyerre. The current Duchess approached Cale.
Cale was thinking about what she had just said as she approached.
‘We are planning on locking the gates for a while.’
The crown prince and Duchess Gyerre had decided to hide the fact that the slaves were bought by a merchant guild from the Empire. Things would spread as soon as they caught that merchant guild, but they were still trying to prevent the news from spreading right now.
A total of three times.
That was how many times the Chryshi household had sold slaves to this merchant guild. The time frame of these transactions corresponded with Alberu solidifying his position as the future king.
With Alberu gaining power instead of the prince that the Gyerre household supported, Baron Chryshi decided that it would be best to gain power through money.
Alberu was furious after finding out about all of this, although he did not show his emotions to Cale.
He was currently stealthily investigating whether there were any other slave trades happening in the kingdom. That was why he decided to hide the information about the Empire’s merchant guild.
However, this did not erase the Gyerre household's sin of not taking care of the border to the point that citizens of the kingdom were being sold off as slaves.
Duchess Sonata Gyerre made up her mind after making a deal with the crown prince. This was the first time she was talking about it to anyone other than her grandson.
