Nina grinned.
“I see. Then, first of all, please appoint me formally as the Commander.”
“First, let’s start with a surname. La Dell, Nina La Dell.”
Having a surname means that in the Empire she is now a quasi-noble. However, there was one question.
“Is it “Ladell’ or “La Dell”?”
When she asked if there was one more last name in the middle, the answer came back as “Last name is ‘Dell’, middle last name is ‘La’.”
“Would you like to have a fief?”
Having a middle name meant a lord with a land. Of course, it’s not a permanent ownership, but a temporary lease of ownership. So if Nina ever has a successor. The successor must come to the Duke of Luverne and be recognized for his succession.
“If I want to hold on to a knight who has signed a contract with some top-tier spirits and has come back from death, I have to do at least this much, right.”
“It’s just your elegant way of telling me not to be overwhelmed by money and get stolen by other nobles.”
“It’s good that you understand.”
“Then I’ll use it well.”
Nina did not decline and instead accepted with gusto. It’s rude not to accept it even though he said he’d give it to me.
Adrian pulled the sealed papers out of the desk drawer and tapped her shoulders saying.
“I present this envelope to Dame Nina. Appoint her the rank of a Viscountess, the middle name ‘La’ and the last name ‘Dell’.”
Nina politely answered with both hands saying, “I’II gladly receive the Duke’s grace.” When she opened the seal, the noble appointment letters, succession rights and territorial documents for ‘Nina La Dell’ was inside.
As long as Nina signed it, it was done.
“When did you prepare all of this?” she asked, surprised.
“It’s been a while since I’ve prepared it.”
Nina put the papers back in the envelope and hugged Adrian sitting over the desk.
“Thank you for waiting.”
“Thank you for coming back.”
“Well, I’m a noble now too!”
Holding the envelope, Nina went round and round, almost dancing, then went out of the study.
Adrian laughed as he looked at her.
Turning his gaze, he looked at the chessboard. There were black and white chess pieces mixed, but there were many pieces that were not in place. Instead of actually playing chess, he used to plan his strategy by assigning camps into horses like this.
Adrian carefully pulled out the Queen from the drawer. The pure white queen made of ivory is the strongest pawn that can move anywhere in chess.
He put his queen on the chess board.
All the dirt was filtered out, marking the start of a new whole round. It’s time for the Duke to stick out his crouching claws.
“If Nina moves, they’ll move too.’
He squinted his eyes.
‘The Cult.
He’d never forgotten what he lost. Revenge was delayed, but it was not forgotten.
A little more.
Just a little more.
He’ll calm down his raging anger.
From now on, he’ll just have to wait a little more.
There was a greenhouse in the Black Shield Castle, Nina was astonished because it was a small but wellmade glass greenhouse.
“How much did this cost!’
When Kirill opened the door of the greenhouse and went inside, Nina followed.
“Wow!”
The moment she entered, the scent of medicinal herbs pierced her nose.
Sweet scent, bitter scent, grassy scent. It feels like you’re in a fragrant bath with all kinds of scents mixed with the humidity unique to the greenhouse.
“I brought the guys from your garden and improved them.” Kirill laughed.
“Oh my gosh…….”
“It can be raised in other places, and since most of the lands in The Duchy were hard to grow wheat because the land is rough, it’s actually being raised in stone fields.”
They’re all medicinal herbs.
“Can you eat and live only by selling medicinal herbs?”
“The peasants will buy anything.”
When Kirill said that, Nina suddenly remembered the poor diet of the people in the castle. She felt like crying.
At the same time, she shrugged.
They could be forced to work, but Adrian doesn’t enslave people.
“I do develop medicine, but it’s hard for me alone. I wish I had someone to help me. It’s a little uncommon for just anyone to do this kind of work.”
At Kirill’s words, Nina remembered someone.
The original male protagonist.
“All right, I’ll look it up.”
At Nina’s reply, Kirill added.
“I’ll give you the report later, check it out, and try to lure them with it. Those who are studying plants will go crazy when they see it.”
Kirill went out of the greenhouse with a giggle.
She also showed the open garden. Outside the greenhouse, the plants were growing well.
What is in the greenhouse are experimental crops that are not yet presented to the outside world, and what is in the garden are different varieties being grown in large quantities.
Nina asked.
“By the way, Kirill, what about wheat?”
Why is wheat so precious?
The most important currency in this era is wheat. A good harvest or a bad harvest determines everything.
Why the wider the land, the richer? Because it has a lot of wheat.
In an Empire that measures money in gold, wheat and gold were the two pillars of the economy.
Kirill looked at Nina.
“It’s up to you, Commander.”
Nina frowned not knowing what she was talking about, Kirill clapped her fingers to follow her. When she opened the door of the wooden warehouse built in the back, the sacks were piled up.
“It’s wheat. It’s the one you brought. If you plant one, it will swell at least 30 times and the warehouse will ‘fill up quickly. The problem is, there’s nowhere to spray this.“
That lost land. A large plain belonging to the Duke of Luverne.
Nina laughed at Kirill’s words.
“Then I’ll have to take the plains back.”
“Yes, try to take it back before the seeds go bad.”
“Yes.”
Nina tapped her chest.
Then Kirill led Nina to the lab, asking her to take the research report.
Kirill’s laboratory was located in the basement of the Black Shield Castle, it was not completely underground, but a semi-basement. One-third is under the ground and two-thirds is on the ground level, since almost all of it is made of glass windows, the lab is well lit.
“Where did you get these windows?”
With these large windows, it looks like a glasshouse.
“I squeezed his Grace for it.”
At Kirill’s concise answer, Nina feels like she would pass out. As expected, there is a reason why they only ate potatoes.
Kirill’s lab was not complicated and everything was in order. A neat name tag was attached to a cupboard glass bottle containing dried medicinal herbs.
“Now, this is it.”
Nina, who received a lump of Kirill’s report, suddenly felt like being blind.
“Kirill, I knew you had bad writing, but isn’t this too much?”
“Did I give you the original? Now, here is the manuscript.”
Kirill took out another document. This time she was able to read for sure. Nina expressed her condolences to the manuscript.
I don’t know who you’re going to send it to, but I’ve only chosen what’s okay to be exposed to the outside, world.”
Nina nodded at Kirill’s words. There was only one place she could think of.
Where the male lead lives.
Blue Stone Island.
The sorcerers in this world are called Sages and lived on an island called ‘Blue Stone.’
“Do you have another copy?”
“Yes, you can take it with you.”
“Oh, Kirill. I’m going into the Violet Forest, do you have anything to ask for?”
“Of course.
Kirill took out the necessary list. The paper was worn out and the letters were blurred, so Nina wondered if this was an old list.
“When did you make it?”
“Some time ago, no one asked this old woman if she needed anything. It’s been sitting around there for a while.”
Then Kirill said, “Kids these days, tsk tsk.” Nina laughed and accepted the list.
“Thank you for waiting, Kirill.”
“Hmpf.”
Kirill shook her hand to get out. Nina took her report and left the lab.
Reading the report in her room, she found out that Adrian had been thoroughly prepared for a long time.
I can’t believe no one’s ever told me about this. Well, it’s true that we’ve just reunited after two years of separation.
Adrian found all the plants she had grown in her little garden and sent them to Kirill, who lost no time in raising important varieties.
“Wheat, limpid fruits, oil tree……. There are also several medicinal herbs.”
Nina left for the Violet Forest, with the list of medicinal herbs Kirill gave in hand. Jean agreed to accompany her as Vice-Commander, so she readily accepted.
As usual, her hair was tied in pigtails and she wore the black uniform, and after loading the horses, the two set out.
