Earl Sechnal ran away as soon as he found out that Takumi was acquainted with Queen Fraal, but that did not mean he was giving up on Tsubaki, the carriage, and Sophia.
「Should I hire mercenaries to attack them at the border and have the dark guild just in case?」
He knew that currently, the Elf was staying in the high class seaside hotel that Queen Fraal and her entourage were renting. Obviously, it would be a foolish plan to attack a hotel with the royal warrant and its surroundings.
「What do we do about Earl Vautarc’s share……」
Earl Sechnal already had no doubt that he would get his hands on Tsubaki, the carriage, and Sophia. It did not even cross the back of his mind that this was counting chickens before they hatched.
「Adjust my schedule so I may meet with Earl Vautarc in private. As quickly as possible.」
「……certainly.」
The butler bowed his head deeply and left the room.
Earl Sechnal moved quickly. A man whose steps were light when it came to conspiracies and money making. That was the true essence of Earl Vautarc.
Late at night in a warehouse by the harbor, Earl Vautarc and Earl Sechnal had a private discussion. It was improbably for two family heads to meet clandestinely in such a place. That was, unless it was to conspire and scheme. Moreover, as the Earls themselves had come, it meant that they were all the more vigilant so as to not leak this information to others.
「Lord Sehnal, does meeting here means that it’s a job behind the scenes?」
Hearing this, Earl Vautarc grinned broadly. Roughhousing was Earl Vautarc’s forte. From pretending to be bandits to covert assassinations, nothing mattered as long as he gains a profit.
「……so, what have you brought to me? If a more miserly Lord than myself is coming to me, is it a troublesome opponent?」
「What, he’s just a commoner according to my investigation. However, he is most definitely close to Queen Fraal of Accuros.」
Hearing this, Earl Vautarc thought about it for a bit.
「Fumu, so that target is profitable?」
Earl Vautarc knew that the value of the carriage and the Dragon Horse would be worth thousands of platinum if auctioned, so he became excited halfway through Earl Sechnal’s explanation.
When Triaria Kingdom invaded Yggurle Kingdom over 50 years ago, Earl Vautarc was still but a child, but the previous Earl Vautarc supported Triaria Kingdom behind the scenes. His objective was, of course, to procure Elven slaves. Because the invasion was declared a draw, the Elven slaves did not fall into their hands, so the previous Earl Vautarc was burdened by that loss for many years.
「(The Elves that father was obsessed over…… It wouldn’t be bad to have one. If I get tired of it, I could sell it for a large profit. ……Not bad.)」
Earl Vautarc also had information on Earl Sechnal’s dispute in the city. Because it happened in a grand manner in the bustling main road of the city, the dispute itself was known as public knowledge. However, Earl Vautarc had his protege’s intelligence unit investigate from the place Takumi was staying in, to the party’s composition, their numbers, ages, and more. As a result, just like Earl Sechnal, he had no doubt that Takumi was a commoner.
And so, excluding the information regarding the Sanctuary and Wedgefort these past few years, there was a difference in quality of information because they were Samandourian nobles.
In Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom, there were a few nobles and merchants who were aware of Takumi, and matters relating to the Sanctuary, and the development of the Savage Lands. However, the other countries were concealing information as well as Takumi himself refraining from standing out, accurate information wasn’t transmitted to the Samandour Kingdom’s companies. As a result, not even the fact that Takumi was a commoner was conveyed to the country.
To the Trination, the Samandour Kingdom was no different from an arms dealer in extreme terms. They were assertive with making sure that information about Takumi being an important figure in the Sanctuary doesn’t get shared. Information that is only known by very few people in the Trination leaking to a potential enemy nation was very undesirable, and must not ever happen.
And that was one of the reasons why two prominent Samandourian nobles were in a predicament.
After their secret meeting, Earl Sechnal and Earl Vautarc began moving covertly.
Not even a thought that this was a step towards their destruction……
