This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
After both the audience and the explanation had ended, Cain returned to his mansion.
“Cain-sama, congratulations on your inauguration as viscount.”
“””Congratulations”””
Lined up in the hall on the other side of the door were Koran and Silvia, with the rest of the maids behind them.
“Thank you very much. I’ll be coming and going quite a lot, so please keep up the good work, okay.”
The maids replied cheerfully with a “Yes!”. It seemed like being able to work in a viscount’s mansion was quite the prestigious thing.
“Koran, is now a good time? I have something to talk about in the office.”
“Yes sir, understood.”
Cain thanked the maids and headed to the office with Koran.
“No way, Drintor, you say? Are you fine with that?”
Koran also knew the story of the town of Drintor.
“His Majesty and the Prime Minister told me that I can do as I like, so there’s a lot of things I can try. It’s a town of adventurers, so it might be a good idea to see it as an adventurer at least once. I think I’ll go next weekend.”
“Please take care. Well, I say that, but Cain-sama is A-Rank, right? Please don’t do anything too fancy and bother His Majesty again.”
“Yeah. Because His Majesty just said ‘Can’t you restrain yourself!’ a little while ago.”
“Even His Majesty said so… Whatever shall I do…”
Cain couldn’t say anything about his Status, so he kept silent.
The next day at school.
“Cain-sama, congratulations on your promition.”
“Cain-kun, congrats!”
He received congratulations from Teles and Silk.
“Viscount Cain, congratulations on you promotion. To think you’d become the lord of that Drintor. Well, do your best.”
Habit, the son of Marquis Corgino was there with a smile that seemed to have deeper meaning. He seemed to have heard of Drintor’s current situation from his parents, and how the territory was visibly failing to be managed properly.
He came all the way from B class to S class with his henchmen to greet them.
“Habit-kun, thanks a lot. It’s my first time managing a territory, but I’ll have a deputy, so I’ll do my best.”
After that, classes ended without any more incidents.
Cain left the south gate in his uniform and headed for the Adventurer’s Guild.
When he opened the door and went inside, he felt all the adventurers glance at him at the same time because he was wearing a uniform, but they looked away soon enough.
Previously, he’d once released his killing intent inside the adventurers guild, and there were now quite a few people who knew of that incident.
He passed by the request board and lined up, because he knew the receptionist lady by sight.
“Letia-san, hello.”
It was the receptionist lady who had helped him when he registered as an adventurer.
“Oh, Cain-sama, hello. Are you doing requests today?”
“Actually, I came to consult with Eden-san, is that okay?”
“If it’s the guild master, I think he’s in the office. I’ll go ask him. Please wait here until then.”
Letia stood up, said a few words to the receptionist next to her, and went into the back.
After Cain sat in the lobby and waited for a few minutes, Letia returned.
“Cain-sama, the Guild Master will meet you. I will guide you, so please come this way.”
Letia guided Cain to the office.
“It’s Letia. I’ve brought Cain-sama.”
She said so after knocking on the door.
“Come in.”
The voice from the other side of the door could be heard, so they opened the door and entered inside.
“Please sit there and wait. I’ll be done in a little while. Letia could you please make some tea.”
“Understood. Cain-sama, please wait here.”
After having guided Cain, Letia left her room to prepare tea.
Soon enough, the tea was served, and Cain waited leisurely until it seemed that Eden’s work was over.
“Cain-kun, sorry for the inconvenience.”
“No, not at all, I’m the one sorry for coming without an appointment.”
Eden sat down on the sofa opposite Cain and sipped the tea made by Letia.
“So what’s going on today? Oh, by the way, congrats on being made a viscount. I heard it from Tifana.”
“Thank you very much. That’s what I would like to consult you about. You see, I’m supposed to be the lord of Drintor. And because it’s famous as an adventurer’s town…”
Eden frowned when he heard the name Drintor.
“That town huh… You’ve been made to accept something terrible again. The guild master over there is called Rikisetsu, formerly an S-class adventurer. He retired as an adventurer due to the aftereffects of an injury, and became the guild master. He’s never been a fan of authority, so he always quarrels with the lord and kicks him and all his guards out. So the town should now be under the direct control of the king. “
After all, Eden was the head of the Adventurer’s Guild in the Esfort Kingdom, so he was well informed.
“I’m thinking of going to Drintor this weekend. As an adventurer, not as a lord.”
“Yeah, you should go check it out. I’ll write a letter to Rikisetsu too.”
“I would appreciate it if you did. I was hoping to keep things civil if possible.”
“I really think that’s impossible though~. He won’t listen a word you say if you’re not stronger than him… ah… Cain-kun, you should be fine. If anything happens, you can just kick his ass.”
“Will it really be that simple?”
“It’s like power is everything in that town. I’m sure Rikisetsu will listen to whatever you say if you kick his ass.”
Cain sighed at Eden’s prompt reply.
“Understood. I’ll do my best.”
“I’ll have the letter ready by tomorrow, so come show your face before going to Drintor!”
“Yes, thank you.”
Cain thanked Eden and left the office. After having finished some errands for the guild, as he was about to leave, Cain saw the receptionist Letia. He waved as thanks for earlier, and got a wave in reply, after which he cheerfully exited the guild.
“I now have a vague image of it, but just what kind of town is it, I wonder?”
Cain muttered while looking up at the sky.
