The snow season is gradually passing and the temperature is beginning to warm up.
Although there are often strong winds these days, it is no longer that cold. The sun occasionally comes out at noon, and the greatest coldness comes from the drop in temperature due to melting snow.
Sean slowly returned to his normal work after the worries he had in the past few days...
Perhaps it was just as General Mandela said, even if those people who escaped did not die, they used special abilities to escape, or they were crushed into the ground by the huge rocks and became a pool of minced meat, making it impossible to tell them apart.
Over time, that sense of vigilance faded.
Anyway, Sean looked at the sand table map of Oro City every day and didn't find any red characters. Instead, most of them were green dots and daytime. After the victory in the border defense war, his reputation was pushed to the highest point.
In recent days, I often hear the servants at home talking about how people on the street praise me, and even I have become the topic of conversation in the pub!
The feeling of becoming a national idol all of a sudden...
Fortunately, I had this opportunity to reverse the negative emotions caused by the accelerated construction in the past six months. Now when I look at the sand table, it is almost difficult to find the characters with yellow dots.
General Mandela stayed in Oro City for more than ten days. He originally planned to let his men stay to help with post-war recovery and battlefield cleanup, but was rejected by Sean on the pretext that the war in the north was more important.
The Oro region has its own circle of soldiers and nobles, and the rest of the matter can be handled by itself...
Of course, the most important thing is that Sean doesn't like an imperial general always staring at him and meddling in his own territory.
According to the class division of the Bashalan Empire, although the imperial generals are not hereditary like the nobles, he is a general from the imperial capital after all and is directly under the Grand Marshal Latula. The hundreds of thousands of troops under his command are enough to support his status. Even some high-ranking officials in the imperial capital may be a little afraid of him, not to mention himself, a border earl.
Mandela must be sent away before Sean can continue the reconstruction of Oro City...
However, before sending the other person away, you still need to prepare some farewell gifts.
There wasn't much to give out in Oro City, and giving away money or people wasn't practical, so they finally decided to give some of the remaining food and supplies to Mandela to take north.
These were originally what Sean and Luke had agreed to reserve for use in the Northern War, and now... they can be taken out, saving the expense of having someone deliver them.
Simple and convenient.
……………………
That day, Sean dined alone at the table as usual. In the entire city of Oro, there was still no one who could be on equal footing with the Earl!
Since the victory in the border war, his reputation instantly reached its peak, and another topic that came with it also attracted widespread attention...that is, Earl Sean Weigel has no wife.
There is no hostess in Oro City!
Possessing such high prestige, acting in such a strong and decisive manner, and more importantly, being young and in a high position with unlimited possibilities in the future, the Earl has not yet started a family at this age.
Many wealthy families saw this opportunity again...
If there were rumors before that Count Weigel's rise was due to his becoming the mistress of a famous witch, then after this war many people truly felt the power contained in Count Weigel.
Once the war is over and the country begins to reward, Count Weigel will definitely be nominated.
If one could establish a relationship with such a promising earl, that would be an opportunity that many rich ladies dream of... So for a period of time after the victory of the war, the earl's mansion actually became a place where rich ladies came to visit.
If Sean hadn't told Aslant not to let anyone in, the entire Earl's Mansion probably wouldn't have enough teacups to use these days.
It’s easy to refuse girls from other noble families, but it’s really hard to refuse girls from families like the Diawara and Morgan families!
Both families held important positions under her, and every time she could only use the excuse of being too busy at work to get away with it... But slowly, the girls also became smarter.
They will choose to wait!
They were reluctant to leave until Sean could no longer stay in the room.
If it weren't for the fact that it always gets dark, Sean thinks they would have to live here...
Eating alone becomes the most leisurely and peaceful moment.
Just after finishing the meal and before I had time to wipe my hands and put my gloves back on, Ascalante hurried in from outside.
"What's up?"
Usually when the other party takes the initiative to speak, it is an important matter. If they don’t speak at the first time, it is not a big deal, so Sean behaved very naturally.
"Uh... sir, we just caught a girl outside the intersection of the Earl's Mansion."
Come again?
Sean looked at the captain of his personal guard in front of him. Fortunately, they were there, otherwise he would be annoyed to death every day.
"Is she a girl from the city? If it's not a big deal, just give her a lecture and let her go. You can handle this kind of thing in the future without coming to me." Sean said.
The intersection of Earl's Mansion is actually the road that comes up from the outside of the hill, which is quite far.
The person who would appear in a place like that would probably be one of my fangirls again... Well, that's the life of an aristocrat...
"Not really, but she said she knew the Earl." Ascalante interrupted Sean's fantasy.
“Are there many people who say that?”
"This is the fourth person... However, that girl said that you weren't this arrogant when you were a mercenary, and she even said that you stole her things. I wanted to kick her out, but if she goes outside and says that, it might reflect badly on you."
