Chapter 63
Afterward, the hands of the artisans became even faster and the swords began to be completed one by one. Everyone was given a dagger and a customized weapon of their choice.
And just in case, the knights secretly tried to chant like Nina in their private rooms but failed.
Meanwhile, a small, conspicuous wagon arrived from the capital. Even though it was just a small wagon, they were quite puzzled because it was a three-wheeled wagon but it turned out that it was a wagon for transporting expensive goods, with iron inside.
The Dark Knights, who followed as the escort, looked relaxed at once when they arrived.
When they opened the carriage, there were many flat boxes, and each box was full of gold coins.
Although the box looks small, it is gold, so the original weight was heavy, and was carefully moved one by one. Nina showed off her strength by moving three or four at a time.
A long letter from Lorocomo also arrived.
“What did he say? How much is all this? Where do we keep it? Can I just stack it up like this?”
Nina used a box of gold coins as a pillow to lie down and chattered. As Adrian opened the sealed letter with a paper-knife, he said.
“Aren’t there any places to put it?”
“Where is everyone usually keeping it? It’s heavy and a bit uncomfortable to move.”
Adrian scanned the letter lightly and answered Nina’s question first.
“Lorocomo said each box has a thousand large gold coins. There are ten boxes in total.”
Then it’s 10,000 gold coins.
“······He earned that much?”
Nina opened her eyes wide. One large coin can support a commoner family to live without a problem for three whole months.
The annual tax revenue from the Duke of Luverne, which had lost the plains, was about 10,000 gold coins. If they have the plains, they would have earned about 30,000 gold coins. This is because the Duke of Luverne is the poorest among the Ducal Houses, and another Duke was said to collect about twice as many gold coins as one year’s tax revenue.
(TL: resume for those who hate Math, they just earned one year’s worth of the Duchy’s income in gold. ALL AT ONCE. without having the harvest.)
Adrian added as Nina shook her head.
“There are already too many reservations for future products, so it is said that the amount has skyrocketed.”
He tilted his head.
“Were there so many bald people in the Empire? It’s just the first carriage for now but soon the second wagon will also arrive, it’s as if they’re probing how much more medicine we can produce.”
“The second one is also about to arrive? No, just how many and how much more are you planning to sell?”
“I’m not sure yet. But probably when they realized it’s insolent to send cumbersome letters to high-nobles.”
There was a slight sarcasm in Adrian’s last line. The average nobleman would have thought it was frivolous to ask for the exact amount.
At Adrian’s words, Nina jumped up from her seat.
“Then are we really rich now?”
Adrian uttered to the excited Nina.
“With just this much? That can only be known when the wheat is harvested this year.”
“Right. We’ve only made money from the hair loss pills so far. What did they say? What else is there?”
“There will be other merchants that would want to be in contact with the Duchy.”
“Oh, it seems that they want to keep us from monopolizing the products. Still, there was no contact until we collected two full carriages worth of gold coins.”
“Because it’s impossible to swallow the whole market with just a single item, so they thought they could just leave us alone.”
“I understand, but······.”
Nina grinned.
“Kirill has made another interesting stuff. Something like a cure for rotten teeth?”
There aren’t many people who can stand a toothache.
“It’s······.”
Adrian was also surprised when he heard Nina. Then he sighed and said.
“Why is the Duchy of Luverne becoming a sacred place for medicine?”
“Hehe, it’s all thanks to the Duke’s grace.”
Adrian could only laugh at Nina’s flattering words.
Lorocomo’s letter was quite thick, but Adrian quickly read it. He read all the letters and handed them to Nina so she could check them.
Lorocomo’s penmanship was neat and easy to read. It is said that the product was convenient to sell because it works right away and that more businessmen should be selected, and finally, the rumors of the capital society have been briefly summarized.
In the end, she could only think that he was really a capable merchant when she saw that the basics were about information welfare.
“Indeed, he’s currently both the salesperson and the store owner. It looks like he had picked a few people he personally knows to help him, but I think we can just trust Lorocomo and leave it to him. And what the hell is this rumor at the end of the letter?” (Nina)
Nina chuckled.
“Why is the Duke of Luverne this infamous? Ugly, hunchback, lame, with monster-like appearance, and was a half-blooded bellac, wow······.”(Nina)
Nina asked, fluttering the paper.
“Didn’t you go there to get approval for your title?”
“I went. For a week, he didn’t even allow an audience, and I waited all day in the waiting room and then he gave in. Surprisingly, the imperial waiting room had no chairs.”
Adrian smiled bitterly. Nina frowned.
“You mean he was that cheap of a guy? It was really bad.”
“As soon as I got approval, I came down to the territory, so only a few people saw my face. And I don’t also think that those people will correct the rumors on their own.”
“That’s right.”
Nina sighed and finished reading the letter, then looked down and burst into laughter.
“What? Adrian, did you see this? There’s a rumor about me.”
“Of course.”
Adrian looked at Nina with a face that asked why she didn’t know it.
Then Nina looked at him, “What?”
Looking anxious, with a strange expression on his face, he said.
“Nina, you’re a spirit contractor.”
“And?”
Nina tilted her head, wondering if it was necessary to check so carefully what she already knew. Adrian smiled bitterly and added it.
“There are only four spirits contractors in the Empire, and even a kingdom with just one contractor tries their best to keep them from being taken away. Even now, there are only seven or ten known contractors. Among them, even fewer people use weapons like us.”
“I’m only getting attention because we’re rare. If there are only four in the empire······. Who else besides me and Adrian? Do you know what kind of spirit they signed a contract with?”
Nina read the end of the letter again. Rumors were rampant, but little was known about her.
Meanwhile, she smiled at the rumor that said she was a crazy man who beat up all the candidates for the black knights and kicked them out.
The match against the Eagle Knights was also one of them, but Nina was even more pleased because it said it was not a positive rumor.
Adrian continued to explain.
“You are known for North Wind and the Frost Spirits, and I am known for Darkness. The same goes for the other two. Theron; Master of the Storm and Alka; the Rose Fairy.”
“Rose?”
Surprised, Nina took her eyes off the letter, and Adrian nodded.
“What does the Rose Spirit do? What are the skills? Smells like roses······?
“Quite similar.”
As Nina rolled her eyes, Adrian playfully tapped her forehead and said.
“It seems like that person can seduce the mind by using the spirit’s power.”
“Really? That’s somehow impressive. I haven’t even thought about an ability like that. Well, not all the spirits are combat-tailored. Then does Theron use a weapon?”
“Bow.”
“I see.”
The spirit of the storm.
Nina was both amazed and curious. She has never met anyone who uses the Spirit’s power except Adrian.
Nina returned the letter to Adrian, he threw it lightly on the table and looked down at the chessboard.
As she watched him look at the chessboard, Nina laid down and tapped the corner of the chessboard with her fingertips.
When Adrian only looked at Nina, she reached out her hand.
“Show me your sword.”
Adrian pulled the belt attached to his sword and threw it to Nina. Nina pulled out the sword.
“It really looks like a sword made of obsidian. It looks very sharp.”
Nina put down the sword and looked carefully at the blade.
“Doesn’t it remind you of the ancient race? Didn’t it say that they took out the hearts of their sacrifice with an obsidian sword and used it as their offerings?”
She smiled and flicked the sword around and put it on her shoulder. Adrian flinched unconsciously as the blade touched her white neck.
“If I were to be stabbed to death, I’d like a pretty sword like this. If Adrian was my boss, I would be willing to give my heart.”
Nina’s neck moved, and her cheeks touched the blade slightly.
“Nina.”
Adrian gripped the blade tightly. Nina looked up in surprise.
“Adrian! Are your hands ok?!”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
