by fnovelpiaA man’s ugly struggle.
Since there is a reason, I decided to cancel the expression “ugly.”
Wasn’t it a case where Yul, a genius alchemist, succeeded in his research, and the side effects produced even greater results, making it a huge hit?
For alchemists, side effects were inseparable.
That’s why that alchemist noble isn’t going wild like he’s having a fit.
of course.
‘I said I understand, but that doesn’t mean I agree.’
I said, crossing my arms and legs just like the alchemist noble did.
“It’s difficult to insist that I won’t be able to do it just because you can’t do it. No matter how jealous you are, not acknowledging the truth is ugly.”
“Ugly, ugly? I?! Did you call me, the great alchemist, ugly!? Because of how good you are… !”
“If you’re that smart, you should have made purification fluid before me.”
“Tsk!”
The noble’s mouth fell shut in front of the purification liquid.
“I shouldn’t sell it because there may be side effects? If you really want to do that, please prove the side effects yourself. “Then I will be punished and I will not be able to use the purification liquid.”
“A guy like you… Why not me… !!”
In the end, the alchemist noble committed suicide.
It was no different from confessing my lack of qualifications.
The other nobles were also clicking their tongues as if they had realized that they were angry.
‘You did it brilliantly.’
At that time, a handsome nobleman stood up and spoke loudly.
“Come on, the mood is really bad. If the purification liquid is real, it would be like a great miracle for humanity. The person who invented this great miracle… “Did you say your name was Suhan?”
He was an aristocrat with a good-looking appearance and was easily liked by anyone.
“Now that I think about it, I couldn’t even say it in full. “It’s called Suhan.”
“haha! I only briefly heard what the commander said, but fortunately I heard the name correctly. Anyway, I think we should applaud Suhan.”
clap?
“How happy were the lords who lost the fiefdoms they had ruled for generations due to pollution when they heard the news of the development of purification fluid? “Some people may be secretly happy at the thought of regaining their lost land.”
The nobles looked depressed as if they were reminiscing about the past.
“Our family has had a huge granary for generations. This is a family that exported what was left over to the country and even exported it to neighboring countries. But now I barely have a palm-sized amount. “I am reminded of the feelings I felt when I saw the land I received as compensation.”
“Look at that. In a way, that friend could be the benefactor who helped us regain our family’s lost land. Instead of looking at it too harshly, how about accepting it with a generous heart?”
Now that I’ve swung the stick, does that mean it’s now a carrot?
Several nobles are seen agreeing with the words of the noble-looking nobleman.
“And aren’t you and the Commander a perfect match? haha!”
“?”
Thalia and I are a good pair?
Is it possible that he knows our relationship?
Everything I’ve done so far hasn’t gone beyond Thalia’s expectations, so I’ve taken it easy, but her intelligence is greater than I expected.
Thalia and I have always met at my house every night.
But how did that nobleman know that we were dating?
‘I let my guard down and almost got into big trouble.’
I realize once again that all nobles are awakened.
“… “You two look good together?”
Thalia also frowned and asked, as if the nobleman’s words bothered her.
The nobleman realized that he had made a mistake and covered his mouth with his hand.
Of course, that didn’t mean the mistake would be undone.
“It looks like you guys were investigating my background, right? That’s a lot of guts. “Did the duke give permission for that to happen?”
Thalia must have been so surprised that she couldn’t tell the difference between the enemy and the enemy and unleashed a murderous attack that was incomparable to the first time, and goosebumps appeared on my body as well.
‘I guess I couldn’t even say anything because I was under such pressure.’
I realized that it wasn’t because the nobles were stupid.
Perhaps because he saw my body stiffening, the deadly force aimed at me was withdrawn.
Even so, the aftereffects of being killed had not gone away, and my heart was still beating wildly.
‘Is it similar to when I met that guy back then?’
A monster that went into the contaminated area to solve Ariando’s scenario and could only see its shadow.
It was a fleeting moment, but it felt similar to the pressure I felt from that monster.
Although she may not be as good as the SSR characters I raised, her skills as a commander on active duty were not lacking.
This means that it was not pressure that the nobles, who were plump and overweight, could withstand.
“Oh, no! It’s a misunderstanding. I didn’t want to know, but somehow I found out by chance. “It was Count Sol who told us the news!”
The nobleman who made a mistake could not bear the pressure and quickly reported the matter.
Thalia’s gaze moved to a man named Count Sol.
“… I didn’t research it, I just saw it. “You two were on a boat.”
Count Sol reluctantly answered.
I saw you on a boat… .
It seems like it was a misunderstanding that there was a background investigation.
It was only when Thalia brought up the story of the ship that she experienced a gruesome death.
“Huyu~”
“Ugh~”
“Sir, I almost died.”
“Oh my heart.”
“Isn’t this too much? Commander! “No matter how uncomfortable I feel, I’m not threatening you!”
“That’s it. It felt suspicious so I stopped without realizing it. “You better think three times before you speak.”
Thalia haughtily gave advice to the nobles who could barely take a breath.
“Hmm, I’m glad the misunderstanding has been resolved.”
He seemed to have a lot to say, but he seemed to be holding back his temper as if he didn’t have the courage to say it all.
“So what about the applause you said you would give?”
Thalia did not stop there and shamelessly asked why the nobleman did not applaud as he had suggested first.
The nobles, who all looked like they had chewed shit, reluctantly clapped their hands.
Clap clap clap clap clap-
Loud applause fills the conference room.
Anyone could see that the applause was forced, but Thalia smiled as if she was satisfied with the clapping of the nobles.
“How is it?”
Thalia looked at me and opened her eyes brightly.
“yes?”
“Doesn’t it feel good? “I’m getting applause.”
“… “It’s not bad.”
I couldn’t say it was bad here, so I gave a cursory answer.
When Thalia saw my shocked expression, the nobles stopped clapping.
“It doesn’t seem that good. done. stop.”
Only then did the nobles suddenly stop applauding.
“Actually, there is something I want to ask you honestly here. Do you really think cleansing liquid won’t help? So you are against it? “You think it’s really wrong for humanity to drive out pollution and reclaim the land!”
The nobles swallow their saliva at Thalia’s shouting.
For some reason, I came to a place where I thought it was my hearing, but in fact, it seemed like I wasn’t the main character.
Thalia gave a long speech about proper noble posture to the mute nobles.
The nobles looked like they had chewed shit but were unable to refute it.
Squeak-
thud!
“Are you getting scolded here too?”
At that time, the conference room door opened and a middle-aged man appeared.
It was their first time seeing this face, but the nobles jumped up from their seats as if they knew each other.
“What are you doing here, prince?”
I thought he had an unusual status, but surprisingly, he was a member of the royal family.
‘After all, you are seeing the royal family.’
I was glad to see that they didn’t seem to be the troll-like royal family I saw in the game’s main scenario.
Still, you shouldn’t let down your guard.
‘Because all members of the royal family must be out of luck unless they are the princess.’
Only then can Princess Mona become emperor.
So, there is definitely a bomb hidden inside the seemingly normal royal family map.
“I came here because I was curious because I heard that a person who developed a product that can purify polluted areas has arrived. Let’s see, oh! I guess this is my friend. Is that correct?”
The Third Prince made eye contact with me.
Thalia reluctantly answered, as if she had no choice.
“Greetings. “You are the third prince.”
“It’s an honor to meet you. “This is Suhan.”
“Uh, okay, okay. But isn’t it what I thought it would look like? “Are you really an alchemist?”
“… yes. “I brought purification fluid.”
“Right. Anyway, you stand in line for me.”
“yes?”
What is this kid saying now?
“Just stand in line for me and you can get out of here right away.”
“Prince! “This is my person.”
“I’m not saying I’m going to take that person away from you. “It’s just that I protect you.”
Of course, protecting me won’t be free.
“Half of what I make from septic fluid. Ah~ I feel it! It is considered half of the net profit. “If you give just that much, I will keep you out of trouble.”
And the three princes were hit by a bomb as expected.
* * *
“You can ignore what the third prince said.”
The meeting was disorganized due to the prince’s taunts.
Because of the Third Prince’s request to donate money and receive his protection, he could no longer oppose the commercialization of purification liquid.
“You chose me, so how can I ignore you? You’re a member of the royal family.”
“Tsk.”
Even nobles couldn’t bite me in front of the royal family.
Are you against making money in front of the royal family who are looking forward to taking money from me?
It meant being stamped by the royal family.
The nobles did not have the guts to vote against it despite taking such a risk.
In fact, it didn’t seem like their opposition could have much of an impact on the general trend.
‘That’s why I summoned Princess Mona.’
Thalia said it was nothing to worry about, but the Third Prince would get very tired if he whined.
Just because he stands in line with another prince doesn’t mean he isn’t a day robber.
“Actually, I know someone among the royal family.”
“… “The royal family?”
It would be absurd to suddenly say that I know a member of the royal family.
“I don’t know if he remembers me, but I’ve only met him once by chance.”
Wouldn’t it be better to have seen each other at least once than to have no relationship at all?
“I don’t think it was a very good time.”
“No, it was a great time. “He showed me around the museum.”
“museum?”
When he heard the word “museum,” he seemed to immediately guess which royal family I was talking about.
She said.
“Are you by any chance Princess Mona?”
“yes that’s right.”
Princess Mona would be an excellent shield that could block the greed of the three princes.
