Long before Sean arrived, the three children of the Hamilton family had been infiltrating into Lietis.
I heard that the incident in Koga City has reached the king's ears, and it's very likely that the king will personally designate the next Earl of Hamil's successor...
However, the royal palace only issues the decision. The person who may really influence the decision may be Prince Philip, because he is the highest-ranking person in the southern part of the empire. Just one suggestion may affect the king's judgment.
After all, the king did not really understand the situation of the southern nobles.
Perhaps in his opinion, the fact of being attacked itself is more worthy of attention than who will be the heir...
"We've known about this for a long time." Frelia interrupted the other party.
There were already many rumors about this in Koga City, and it was not difficult to imagine considering the actual situation.
Even the king would not act arbitrarily. He would listen to opinions from all sides and then reach a consensus. The one who could really influence the decision was the prince of the south.
"Prince Philip asked me to come back as soon as possible because of this matter."
“But now something else has happened.”
Sohana paused. Now there were only three people left in the room.
The little girls who were looking behind the door just now also dispersed when they saw Sohana coming in...
"What's going on?" Frelia asked hurriedly.
"Are you referring to Grand Duke Haruman?" Sean suddenly said.
I've been feeling worried ever since I started talking about the events in Koga Castle.
What could possibly make her worry?
Sean thought about what happened in Koga City and what the other party had said about the relationship between the prince and the duke before he came here, and then he thought of this...
Sohana turned to look at Sean in surprise and said:
"Yes, Duke Haruman has recommended to the king that Ryan Hamil inherit the title of Koga City. The reason is that he is Earl Hamil's eldest son and has a high reputation in the city."
It has been directly specified!
And it was that Ryan...
Sean recalled that he had a brief encounter with the other party in Koga City. Although it was not directly aimed at him at the time, neither side left a good impression on the other.
If he inherits the title, Thelemian's good days will probably be over!
"Has the order come down?" Sean asked hurriedly.
"Not yet. Prince Philip feels that further consideration is needed, especially with regard to the attack on Koga and Earl Hammer's last words."
Although it was Sohana who spoke, Sean felt a chill down his spine for no apparent reason...
Last words.
That guy just saw me before he died, and he didn't say anything.
I only said something to myself... I told myself to believe in something...
It had already mutated before he could even finish speaking.
It was not until later that Sean felt that what the other party wanted to say was probably to make him believe that he had not harmed the villagers, but what was the point of saying it at that time.
The person has been dead for more than ten years. It’s too late to prove it now!
From this, we can see that Earl Hamilton is a man who values face. Even in death, he wants to leave a good reputation for himself...
"Did Prince Philip really say that?" Frelia asked.
"Well, this is the news I received. Duke Haruman seems to be very tough this time. He wants Ryan to become the next Earl of Hamil, and he often comes to Rietis for this matter." Sohana continued.
It seems that the young man has already sided with the Duke's faction. I don't know what conditions he used, but he has already won the support of Duke Haruman.
She was actually willing to come to Lietis in person for him!
"Has the person I asked you to notify at the Prince's Palace returned?"
"He hasn't come back yet. Do you want me to send someone to urge him?"
"Let's leave it at this for now. We just need to wait for news." Frelia said with a serious expression.
……………………
The two waited until the evening but did not receive an invitation from the prince. By dinner time, Sean finally saw what it meant to be a man among girls.
Not everyone eats together. Those who can sit at the same seat with Frelia are probably people of higher status!
After a quick look around, except for Karlyana who was receiving special care because she had just returned, the rest of the people were all Orderers at level 5 or above. These nearly forty people should be considered the top force of the Wings of Covering the Sky.
Sean was also given special care and was arranged to sit next to Frelia...
Even when I lowered my head to eat, I could often feel people staring at me [being watched…]*20, and there were hardly any people around.
"Sean is a southern aristocrat."
"Well, yes. A small town in the south called Thelmian..." He had to answer questions from people around him while eating.
"I haven't heard of this town. The farthest place I've been is Bifeng City." said the girl.
She is also a girl with outstanding appearance, her name is Ellie.
Ever since I sat down, I've been asking about the South...
After all, there are no particularly ugly girls in this organization. Maybe girls also have the habit of comparing with each other. They dress up to compete with each other and as a result, many outfits look similar, especially the hairstyles are mostly the same.
"It's a very remote town, deep in the mountains. But it's very quiet... I especially like the beauty of the afternoons in the mountains. It's like there are always birds singing in my ears, and when I take a nap in a chair, small animals will occasionally run into my arms. The fragrance of flowers in the air and the feeling of the breeze on my face are particularly interesting." Sean said with a smile.
He has been trying his best to show his aristocratic temperament, sense of humor and erudition.
When I looked up, I found that quite a few young girls were giving me admiring looks. I guess they've been in the city for too long and find rural life more interesting.
But most people probably won't think so after a few days of being bitten by bugs and spending some time in a dark room...
"It sounds beautiful." The girl said enviously.
"It's really beautiful. It's a different feeling for the city."
"Oh~ So Thelmian is such a place. Baron Sean never told me about these things before." At this time, a voice suddenly came from beside him.
Frelia looked at him with a smile on her face...
"So Thelmian is so beautiful. You haven't mentioned it before."
A gentle smile and a [Warning!] sign on his head.
"They are just trivial matters, just talking about them casually." Sean said and continued to concentrate on eating.
At this moment, a little girl hurriedly ran in from the door and spoke into Frelia's ear.
"Chief, there's news from Prince Philip."
