by fnovelpia“You’re trying to beat me by beating me up. There is no way.”
No matter how much he said there was a lot of work to do, I couldn’t forgive him for suddenly delegating the position of top manager without even thinking about it later.
Although it was essentially a form of hiring me, it was unforgivable that they spent money to force me into submission.
‘If this happens, she will realize how crazy she has been.’
Since I committed the crime without thinking about what would happen next, is there any reason to think about what would happen next?
Okay, let’s advertise that we are close friends.
I proudly sent Eterna a proposal to accept the remaining manager position or not, and threatened to keep the van until I received it.
In other words, it is called “press gang”.
what? Don’t you want to be a manager? Then live with the ban?
It was a powerful threat that only I, a top manager, could make.
I huffed and closed the pad.
“Mi, Midir… ”
I sighed and let out a sigh as I saw Razak asking what on earth had happened.
How should I explain this?
‘I can’t explain that I just threw it away and told them to take care of it because I had nothing to do… ‘
How would you believe me if I said that?
It was fortunate that they didn’t look at me strangely.
“I want to meet Dmitry.”
“… Yes, I understand.”
The money received from Eterna this time was considerable.
So, to suddenly hand this over to the children who manage the Blood Tower’s funds is tantamount to ignoring the Senate.
It would be good to have at least some consultation with Dmitri on this matter.
Because he is the highest-ranking elder in the Senate.
Razak nodded when I said I wanted to meet Dmitri and led me to the Senate.
Even in his opinion, he seemed to think that in this situation, it was not appropriate to ask him to explain what was happening on the bulletin board.
They probably believe that they will let you know by posting a notice later.
Yeah, that’s better.
I was planning on telling you later.
Even though that may not be the truth.
.
.
.
“Welcome, Lord of the Blood Tower.”
“I stopped by because you called me… ”
As soon as I arrived at the Senate, the elders who had already taken their seats welcomed me.
In particular, Dmitry was looking at me with a strange sense of anticipation while expressing doubts about my sudden search for him.
‘What is this speed… ‘
It wasn’t that I came up particularly slowly, I just took the elevator up right after Razak, but when did I even get to my seat?
Could it be that he used teleportation magic as soon as he heard that I wanted to meet the elders?
They’re blood wizards, so they can’t use things like that.
Otherwise, I can only conclude that I was spending most of my time sitting here.
‘Oh, that can’t be true.’
How can someone spend all day sitting at such a dull round table?
Well, from my perspective, I didn’t have to wait in the first place, so I liked it, but I didn’t hate it.
“Keuhm, it’s been a while. Fortunately, everyone looks healthy.”
“Hehehe… It’s thanks to Midir’s grace.”
“If it weren’t for Midir, I wouldn’t have been able to live my second life as I am now. thank you… ”
No, is it that much?
I turned my head in the direction where the voice came from just moments ago.
There was an elder there for the first time…
‘No, is it Vlad?’
When I looked closely, there was a little bit of Vlad’s face left.
I can’t believe how much weight he’s lost in just one month. The last time I saw him, he was chubby, but now he’s become a sturdy middle-aged man who has lost a ton of weight.
‘Did he always look this good?’
Although he was said to have a bit of a slyness characteristic of a middle-aged man, Vlad was particularly prone to this.
If I hadn’t continued the eating habits that deteriorated my health by drawing blood like crazy, wouldn’t I have looked like that?
Now that I look at it, it seems like there were more than one person who had ruined their bodies after learning blood magic.
‘As expected, I’ll have to start that plan as soon as possible.’
I thought that to myself and raised my head and looked at Dmitry.
“Hey Dmitri.”
Then he called Dmitry.
Then, while he was answering what I was calling him for, he was looking at me with that characteristic expression of anticipation that I mentioned earlier.
He seemed to think he was hiding it well, but from my point of view, as I was looking at him, he had an expression that seemed truly unlucky, so I thought for a moment about not showing it.
Anyway, it really didn’t seem like there was any point in hiding this.
In the first place, I couldn’t use money as I wanted just because I was the owner of this magic tower because I didn’t know exactly about the current market price.
I have set aside the money for my own use and have only set aside the money to use for the magic tower.
I lifted the pad and showed it to Dmitry.
Unlike in the past, you can now see things that are far away clearly. As was his habit, Dmitry lifted his monocle and looked at the pad I showed him.
“… This… ”
Then, as if he realized what was happening, an earthquake began to occur in his eyes.
“What’s going on, Elder Dmitry, you look so surprised… ”
The elder sitting next to me, who was questioning Dmitry’s reaction, glanced at the pad I showed him and froze on the spot.
I grinned.
‘how is it? ‘It’s probably an amount of money you’ll never touch in your life.’
I laughed to myself.
It is true that the Magic Tower has a lot of money compared to other places, but the Blood Tower is uniquely poor among them.
Of course, there was no way those who had devoted their lives to that poor magic tower would have ever had this much money in their hands.
Of course, I have never touched such a large amount of money, and I wonder what difference it will make if I show it to elders who have no memory of ever touching money.
If you have at least this much money, it’s common sense to show it to people like me who are in the highest positions.
“This, this money… Where did it come from… ?”
“I received it as a subsidy.”
“G, subsidy?!”
“This is Eterna’s support money given to the Blood Tower. I wonder if it can be applied retroactively.”
It is true that the amount of money provided to the Blood Tower from the Aether Tower has decreased, but even so, this amount does not make sense.
Of course, it’s not retroactive, it’s just that Eterna likes me so they gave me more money.
‘I can’t explain what happened back then… ‘
When Eterna is with me, she becomes a girl like any other.
He said he likes me to the point of being suspicious.
They were angry at the fact that I did very little work and forced me to be the top manager.
However, they said it was a reward for working for them, so they ended up taking on a position that was completely out of the ordinary and was paid for the first time in history.
The story is that she gave in to the enormous amount of money and called her sister.
‘I want to preserve my dignity at least here… ‘
I shed bloody tears inside.
He showed up proudly with this much money, but when I found out how he got this money, I didn’t know.
How would these guys react if they found out that they were paying for their cuteness by calling Eterna their sister?
Of course, since the amount of money I have received is small, they will not openly ignore or belittle me.
‘ah… hmm… Don’t forget the blood tower lord’s sacrifice… Puss… Won’t you… Yes… ! Puhaha… !’
‘Khu, khuh…’ I didn’t see anything… ‘
‘cute.’
Fuck that’s a no-no.
I will never get caught.
I gritted my teeth so that I would not show any loopholes.
After clearing his throat with a sigh, he opened his mouth with an expression that showed no guilt.
“I’m sorry for not doing anything for a month. But I think you’ll figure it out by now… I have a favor to ask of you.”
An amount of money that even the iron tower, which would be the richest among ordinary towers, cannot easily pass over.
I smiled at the senators who were drooling over this money without smiling.
“You all take charge as managers… Please catch all of our blood mages who are causing trouble.”
I’m sorry I haven’t done anything for a month, but I’m starting to get the hang of it.
If there are still people causing trouble, please catch them.
These two words, which may seem incomprehensible at first glance, actually have one meaning.
The order is to catch and purge all those who are causing trouble and lowering the status of the Blood Tower.
gulp
“All this money… We will go into the welfare and improvement of the Blood Tower.”
If you do so, you will enjoy a luxury that has never been compared to before.
Of course, there was no way the elders, who had lived in terrible poverty for a long time, would refuse.
They reached out for the rope.
Luckily, the cord was a brilliant golden cord.
