Chapter 338: 338 After one night, we were unable to approach the mansion .

I was able to rendezvous with Nerbe Ritter, who was waiting in a nearby inn, but the Duke, of course, is not allowed to see Char .

“Have they made it impossible to do anything extra”

“You’re going to have me bring you a pledge anyway . “

I sighed at Sebastian’s words .

I don’t have time to go back to Empire now and convince my father .

We have to persuade the Duke somehow .

“Is it true that the Duke of Roenstein is sick? Tran sl a ted by Jpｍ t l . ｃo m

A room in an inn .

Only me and Sebastian and Lars are there .

I only told Lars about the Duke of Roenstein’s illness .

But Lars still looks half-hearted .

“Almost certainly”

How to cough, how to tease your body .

I’ve seen them all before . T ran s l a t ed by jpｍ tl . c om

It would be the same disease as your mother’s . And that must be the same for Shall .

The symptoms are too similar .

“You look sure, but isn’t it difficult for the Duke to come out then?

“Depending on the progression of the disease, but as far as that stubborn thing goes, I guess I understand my period of death . Otherwise, I’m not going to jump the proposal and bring a pledge . “

Because it is necessary to speak impotently .

The Duke of Roenstein is a symbol of the North .

It’s only with that guy that the North will come together and increase the presence of northern aristocracy .

If he dies after the war, the northern aristocracy is a U . N . crowd . Even if they break their promises, they won’t even have the power to protest .

If I die, I can take it lightly . I know that, so I’m asking for a pledge .

“We can do as much as the Duke wants if he’s alive . But the Duke’s life is not long, and there is no substitute . The only person who might have been in charge of replacing him passed away first”

“That’s hard . Miss Charlotte . “

……

Losing two grandfathers at the same time can only be good as unhappiness .

If I can, I want to give you a serene day, but it doesn’t work either .

T ransla t e d by Jp ｍ t l . ｃ oｍ Ancient magic is pointless against disease .

I can’t cure the Duke’s disease any more than I can cure my mother’s .

At times like this, I resent the fact that my abilities are biased .

“The Duke must be hiding his illness from Shall . Not to shock you . . . but I can’t hide it through forever anyway”

“Contact? To Miss Charlotte . “

“That’s the only way . It all depends on Shall . “

Succeeding after the Marquis of Zweik means forcing the Duke to do so .

Conversely, a desire for calm days beside the Duke of Roenstein would mean not succeeding the Marquis of Zweik .

The road is one in two .

Charles should have chosen better than us .

“We’re infiltrating . Can you do that?”

“It’s easy . “

That being said, Lars willingly retrieved the map of the mansion .

“You ready?

“When I had to, I was willing to control it . “

“I’m glad the negotiations ended peacefully . ” T r a ns l ated by jp ｍt l . c o m

With that said, I started listening to Lars .

■ ■ ■

The Duke of Roenstein’s mansion was a lot tougher than the usual aristocratic mansion .

But long after retiring from the army, his subjects, who ran with the Duke on the battlefield, were also old .

With Nerbe Ritter trained to bury, infiltration was not as difficult .

“Take care, then”

I quickly took control of the west side of the mansion, and Lars, who secured the route, said so and sent me and Sebastian out .

Because if you go inside the mansion, Sebastian can handle the rest by himself .

With the map of the mansion in your head, look for a room where Charles will probably be .

Doing so, I found a room with two escorts .

It’s not the Duke’s room .

I turn to Sebastian and head straight to the room .

The guards who noticed me opened their eyes, but they were stunned by Sebastian from behind .

“Shull! We’re going in!

Knock lightly and I’ll open the door . T r ansl a t ed by Ｊp mt l . ｃom

I’m like Elna and I have resistance, but I can’t keep it long .

“Schwartz!?

I hear a surprised voice coming from inside .

But farther than I thought .

If you look at it, Char was trying to get out of the balcony . I keep the curtains together, like a line .

I wonder what you’re doing, and then I run over to you, but they’re out of balance because of me, and Shall starts to rock with Gragras .

“Wow, wow!!

“Dude!!

Hurry to fill the distance and grab Schal’s arm with both hands .

I managed to regain my posture and pulled the Char up to the balcony, and I said a word .

“Ha ha . . . I told you it was dangerous .

“Haha . . . . . . right . Sorry . “

Charles gets up with a bitter laugh .

I was trying to get out .

I guess it had some purpose .

“I have to go see Grandpa . Help me . “

“I don’t mind . . . okay? Probably the Duke’s sick, huh?

“Yeah . . . probably with me . Unexplained ill health . When it’s bad, I spit blood, and I can’t stand up . And yet when I’m fine, I’m fine . It’s a nasty disease . “

” . . . you and the Duke are different . I’m old . If you can’t do it, that’s how long it lasts . “

“I know . . . but I am the granddaughter of the Duke of Roenstein, the granddaughter of the Marquis of Zweik . I’m obliged to do what I can for the North . Just like you came north . “

With that said, Charles smiled furiously, turning his heel towards the door .

Honestly, I watched readiness sweetly .

Charles is already strongly prepared .

“I’m sorry . Let’s apologize . “

“What do you think?

“I looked sweet . Someone named you . “

“Right . I hope you don’t insult me . I am the granddaughter of Thunder God . “

■ ■ ■

“Let it through . I need to talk to your grandfather . “

“Dear Charlotte . . . but . . . “

“Should I go through with strength?

With Schal’s right hand, the thunder started pounding .

Seeing that, the escort who was guarding the Duke’s room gives way .

And Charles slowly opened the door .

“You little bitch . . . who does she look like?”

The Duke of Roenstein was lying down in bed .

The face looked ten years older than it was yesterday .

Maybe the disease is worse than I think .

“He looks like your grandfather . “

“Right . . . “

When Charles puts me in the room, he closes the door .

The Duke of Roenstein looked at me and narrowed his eyes .

“I didn’t expect you to make a move yesterday today . . . you’re an inconspicuous man . . . “

“I don’t have time . “

“Well . . . but we don’t have time for this . “

That said, the Duke of Roenstein wakes up with his face distorted by bitterness .

Charles rushed to support it, but the Duke of Roenstein stabbed it hard .

“Ooh! Oh, my God! Ha-ha-ha . . . As you can see . . . Noh can’t move . . . “

“So you think I need a pledge?

“Yes . . . after my death . . . I need solid physical evidence to make the North respect . . . no matter how much I hate him, I’m an emperor enough to hate him . . . but I also rate him as not foolish enough to missee the situation . . . “

If you write a pledge and rebel against it, you lose trust from nobles everywhere .

Father, who is attacked by another country and wants to solve domestic problems, does not commit that foolishness .

That’s why the Duke really wants a pledge .

But .

“Father never writes a pledge . If you succumb to your subordinate demands, it will lead to a loss of courage . “

“It’s your job to do something about it . . . “

“Persuasion takes time . In the meantime, the war situation in the north will be irrevocable . I can’t take the time . Please believe me . Not my father, the emperor, but me, the prince . “

“You want me to trust the outcast prince . . . ? Do you have that much power?

” . . . I’ll write the affidavit . I’ll bet my greatest strength to win respect for the Northern aristocracy . “

“The greatest strength . . . ?

“Let’s bet on the prince’s status . Because of the blood muscle, it would not be to the civilian population, but I would accept it in any position, in a political marriage, or in experiments . I defend the North at the cost of my freedom . So . . . I want you to convince me with my pledge . “

That being said, I slowly fell on one knee and bowed my head to the Duke of Roenstein .

It is fundamental that the royal family bow its head beneath its subordinates, it should not be .

But my head is light . I have to lower it . Let’s lower it as much as we can .

That way it weighs in on my words too .

I can tell the Duke that I am not obsessed with the prince’s status .

Even as a father, I can’t say no when it comes to betting on the prince’s position . I would do that, which means the northern nobles are fighting for their merits . I demand a proper evaluation of it . If you poke at it, that undermines the trust around you .

“Why . . . get that far . . . ?

“I thought I told you . The Marquis of Zweik owes a great deal . I return the favor to Charles . We’ll solve the problems in the north, and we’ll secure the status of northern nobility . Not just because I want to . “

” . . . Charlotte . Do you believe that?

” . . . I believe . I’m sure . . . if you tell me you want us both to die, you will die together . That’s who I am . “

The Duke of Roenstein nodded many times at Shall’s words, and exhaled deeply as he was tired .

And .

“So . . . what do you want to do?

“I will succeed Marquis Zweik . Meetings will be held by Northern nobles to bring together the opinions of Northern nobles”

“If that’s the opinion to fight . . . ?

“I propose the Northern Alliance of Hordes . Nothing else, because I, the granddaughter of the Marquis of Zweik, should propose”

Hearing Charles, the Duke of Roenstein had a small grin .
