At the tide when Flora came to the office after completing the application, Ekaterina took Flora and returned to the dormitory.

"I apologize for your precious time." We apologize for the inconvenience. However, please cut off your work early and have a good night's rest. "

Everyone bowed their heads and smiled back at Ekaterina, who worried about overworking as usual.

"You're the one who's too busy these days." You need to get some rest. "

"Yes, I'll do as oniisama says." Ladies and gentlemen, I'm in a good mood. "

With that, Ekaterina leaves the room, and Ivan, a servant, closes the door to the room.

- The air in the room just changed.

"Novak, read on from the report."

“I told you about the discovery of a dead old woman on one of the bridges on the Cerneau River. We have been able to confirm that it was Nonna Zales.”

Novak said in a pale voice, nodding without changing Alexei's complexion.

Nonna Zales, an old woman who was once the maid of her grandmother, Alexandra.

Even after the death of Alexandra, he worshipped his master and said to Ekaterina, who had not yet come to the Imperial Capital, "I will make you a fine lady like Alexandra, not far from the lady you are now." However, Ekaterina was exposed with her nose, bought the wrath of Alexei, and was dismissed from the Duke of Yurnova's house after being exposed to the fact that she was dressed as a payment to the entrance and exit merchants.

After that, I tried to stay close to the Duke of Yule Magna's house, but I was chased away without a doubt, and I was supposed to spend the rest of my life in depression in a corner of the Imperial City......

"Did you turn it off instead of letting it swim?" In that case, the destination is likely to be the key to the flow of money. "

“That's probably the way to think about it. She was also useful to me as a canary in the mine.”

After the death of his grandfather Sergey, when Alexandra ruled the house of the Duke of Yurnova, an enormous amount of embezzlement took place, and the money went to the house of Yurmagna. Alexei and his entourage continue to follow the trail, trying to find evidence that would prove that Yule Magna was wearing the gold.

Nonna may have been involved in Alexandra and Yule Magna's healing attachment to some extent because she was serving near Alexandra's side. Novak guessed that he had brought his men closer to Nonna before returning to Yulnova during the summer holidays.

While Alexei was spending time in Yulnova, his men were not taken aback by Yulnova's connections and lamented her condition.

And the words skillfully guide her. If you've worked for two dukes for years, you deserve a fair reward. If it wasn't possible to visit from the front, try following the handshake and searching for the gold.

It seems that Nonna immediately caught her attention. Then, I began to explore the ideas that the money flowed from Yurnova to Yurmagna, such as the people who visited Alexandra as a temptation when I was serving Alexandra, and the people who visited Alexandra on the contrary.

... disappeared and was found as a body in the Great River Cerneau flowing through the Imperial Capital. Was it a obsession or resentment to reward the murderer by hanging on the bridge pods that connect the banks of the river without disappearing into the sea?

Until the end, neither Alexei nor Novak mourned Nonna, who seemed to have died alive with only her overshooting and obsession with gold.

Alexei is a ruler by birth, and he hates not to reign over the corpses of men. We take for granted that there are those who live for the ruler and those who die for the ruler.

Suddenly, she looked at the door where her sister had left and murmured.

"You know, but don't let Ekaterina know." Whether you are a madman who insulted Yurnova's mistress, knowing that a person's death will cast a shadow on her heart... I want her to see only warm and gentle things. She should take what she gives you. "

“Let's make sure it never reaches your daughter's ears.”

Novak is also very sweet to the lady these days.... I can't believe the lady inside said, "Your opinion won't work!" 'I never dreamed I was moaning.

"But how do we move forward?" The embezzlement itself was a peripheral portrait of the situation, but the current movement to erase the trail was quick and relentless. It's like a poisonous snake. If we send in the wrong hands, it might be the same, or the worst, it might be the other way around. ”

"... I can't just push it." This is the one who's pushing us, and if we take on the economy for a while, we'll see a breakdown. "

Alexei turns his attention to Halil, the head of commercial distribution. Khalil smiled at the exotic beauty.

"In that regard, there is no quick or relentless response." If you can make war in business, I'll invade and show you. ”

"Very well, but if you do it too flashy, Magna could cry to His Majesty." Your Majesty doesn't see the problem anymore, so cut to the edge. "

Will

Khalil bows his head with a smile.

"Then I'll have to cut down that faction." Now that Celeznoa is following us and the upset is spreading, it's a good opportunity. ”

Novak said with a cool face. For a seasoned man who supported his grandfather Sergei, who once ruled the country, breaking the faction of the nobles was a familiar task.

... the faction's agitation is not only about Seleznoa, but also about Yulnova's growing view that he will build the next Empress. But for that, Novak won't touch it. Not yet.

Aaron, the mine commander, raised his hand.

Just in case, I'd like to call the doctor to the Imperial Capital. Would you mind?

"Uncle?"

Alexei looked strange, but nodded immediately.

It's a rainbow stone magic circle. If that is known, many nobles will turn against Yurnova, and the situation will be reversed. ”

When Ekaterina learned of its existence, she thought it was comparable to the steam engines of her previous life, the Rainbow Stone Magic Formation. It was created by brother and sister's Uncle Isaac Yurnova and can automatically continue the magic power activated by the rainbow stone and magic circle traits. It is still in the research stage, but if it is put to practical use, it will cause an industrial revolution in this world.

However, it allows people who don't have magic power to enjoy the benefits of the magic power that aristocrats now monopolize. The aristocrats' rebellion is inevitable, so it's still a mystery now.

"Yes, I think you'll be safe in the old mine in Yurnova, but it's full of people coming and going, and I don't know if strangers are coming in." Besides, it is possible that someone will go somewhere to investigate. If he were to be captured... he would not be able to hide the contents of his research. Everything will be known.

I thought it would be best to call the doctor to the Imperial City to protect herself, and to turn her attention to the young lady's glass workshop. If you're a doctor, you might be able to discover something useful for your daughter. ”

Aaron was full of enthusiasm for his spectacle-loving scholar look. Aaron, once Isaac's assistant, is still Isaac's passionate believer.

Hmmm.

Thinking for a moment, Alexei nodded.

"Very well, my uncle is a well-known scholar who has remembered both the Emperor and the Empress as a part of Yurnova." Magna shouldn't be so stupid as to harm herself in this Imperial City. Call her. ”

Will

With joy, Aaron lowered his head.

"If I were to call you from now on, you would be spending this winter in the Imperial City." It's a pleasure to have people of Yulnova's blood with us for festivals and New Year's. ”

Novak said, and Halil smiled.

"There is also your daughter's birthday in December, isn't there?" My daughter will be delighted if you join her in celebration. ”

"Yes, I want to make a happy day for her."

Thinking of what he was preparing for the day, Alexei lifted his lips.

However, it was only for a short time that he forgave himself for such sweet thoughts, and the young duke immediately reversed his expression and returned to the face of the ruthless ruler.

"Next thing."
