148 – Marquess Administration (1)

My heartfelt congratulations to Count Rupel, who was promoted from Count to Marquis.

In fact, through a series of businesses, the Rupel estate has built up a level of recognition that can no longer be called an outskirts county.

Luchihyeop, a chicken business that had no choice but to succeed, was receiving love calls from all over the northern region beyond the Lupel estate, and the association was making huge amounts of money every day.

The corners of the mouth of the five chefs who proposed the business together, that is, the sales directors, were caught in their ears and did not come up.

And what about Marco Firenze Rupell Brewery?

As long as the name of the colossus of the century is given, the probability of failure is virtually zero.

Roupel Lager and Petalonto Ale were already selling like hot cakes in the capital, and the Imperial Stout, which was brewed in perfect condition by hiring a magician, took hold of the aristocratic society.

I heard that it has become an alcoholic drink that young aristocrats living in the capital must drink at least once a month.

I’ve said enough to say that in the trend-conscious capital city.

In addition, with the completion of the Iron Road, it became another transportation hub linking the capital and northern regions. The number of guild members entering and exiting the territory itself doubled every month.

As a result, each village naturally becomes lively.

Combined with the synergy of Count Rupel, which each village had its own lifestyle and culture, the number of immigrants from nearby territories who were attracted to the strange characteristics and settled there also increased significantly.

The condition itself was enough for a single parish to be established.

.

Establishing a new diocese was a pretty big gift compared to simply compensating for the ‘mistake of the Emperor’s Office’.

But now even Count Rupel has officially become Marquis Rupell under the emperor’s approval. All of this happened less than a year after I took office.

Even if it wasn’t me who was given the title, somehow I felt like I was being fulfilled.

“But then, does that mean that the Marquis of Karahan is also absorbed into our territory?”

“You can do that if you want. Since it has already passed to the regency, it is not difficult to subjugate one territory.”

After the simple coronation ceremony, Dionaos Rupel ‘Marquis’ asked Falcon. The inspector general threw out a word while rolling the scroll again.

It was as he said.

At the time when Rupel Manor was suffering from consecutive bursts of shoveling, it felt exactly like what the deputy lord Farneri Karahan was planning.

It’s safe to say that once you enter the regency, it’s impossible to get your autonomy back unless the lord is quite a gentleman.

“Hmm… ….”

The only problem was that our lord was that gentleman.

If it had been another lord, he would have burped up without questioning or questioning, but Marquis Dionaos Rupel was seriously contemplating how to rule the regency.

“Usually at times like this, it is normal to appoint an experienced vassal as the regent. Didn’t Lord Rupell say there was someone in charge of the Dominion while he was gone?”

“There is a Baron Kirten.”

Definitely.

If it was Baron Kirten, it seemed that he would be able to rule the regency well enough.

The two pillars that supported the territory along with Jared even while the family’s family was on the decline.

Of course, although there is a clear difference between a barony, which is only a few villages in a city, and a marquess, which is numerically 0.5 Times larger than the county. You can’t suddenly send a treasurer or constable as regent to a marquis’ territory, isn’t it?

Baron Kirten of the Marquis of Karahan.

The names are oddly similar, so it suited them well.

“Then it would be prudent to use him, Lord Lupel. Still, the difference between having the experience of ruling a territory and having no experience is huge.”

“Coming to think of it, Baron Kirten isn’t the only one who has the experience of ruling a territory.”

“Hmm?”

At the same time, Marquis Rupel’s eyes turned to me.

“There was a Lubern magistrate. Besides, the rank is also baron.”

“Yes? Did I hear you wrong?”

“It would be perfect for you to be the regent of the Marquis of Karahan, Luvern.”

Suddenly things like this happen?

I was dumbfounded by the unexpected development.

Falcon, the head of the inspection department, was also taken aback for a moment. He looked back and forth between me and Marquis Rupel, then grinned and slapped me on the shoulder.

“When did you receive the title? I’m sorry I didn’t tell you this news. Were we just like this?”

“Oh no… ….”

“Anyway, with your abilities, being a regent like a Marquis would be enough. It’s easy to decorate behind the scenes. Isn’t that right, black fox?”

A burning thirst exploded. My mind was confused by the gaze that seemed to pierce through people’s hearts beyond simply looking at them.

“Lupel Bag, no Marquis! Anyway, there is such a thing as morality…… How am I in charge of the Marquisate when there is Baron Kirten? Ask the doctor first…….”

“Are you serious? If you ask and the baron refuses, I promise you to take it.”

“Ah.”

I regretted my careless words. It was because it was obvious that any Baron Kirten I knew would probably refuse.

You, like me, are the type who enjoys being complacent. Even in this era, it was clear that if there was MBTI, it would have been 100% INFS.

“Ah, Luvern. What are you throwing again? If you leave it to me, you’ll love it.”

In the meantime, Xianne was fanning the burning house.

I had to make a quick decision. Should I pin my hopes on Baron Kirten, who has only a handful of possibilities, or should I be cool and accept everything I can get here?

“If title is the problem, don’t worry. But…… He is the first-class contributor who has grown our territory to this extent, so if possible, he should be promoted to viscount.”

“Yes?”

My brain was pickled in pure white after 2 consecutive hits. Sudden self-preservation?

Marquis Rufel took out his sword and slammed both of my shoulders and forehead before he finished his words.

Although it was conducted in an informal manner, it was definitely the etiquette that a monarch uses when conferring titles on his subordinates.

I thought it would be so simple and futile to become a viscount from a baron in the yard where even a private soldier barely ranks after 4 weeks of training.

“Wow! Viscount Alroy of Luvern, Regent of the Marquis of Karahan! Are you buying some form!?”

“Hzmlug Hssmud… ….”

Sianne giggled at the sight of me suffering.

I should have punished her with Luberne’s fire bat +12 when I had the chance last time, but I never thought I’d regret missing her once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

But you cannot die alone. I opened my mouth to give true education to the knight commander who was making an arrogant expression.

“Instead, I have a request for you, Marquis Dionaos.”

From noble mtl dot com.

“If it’s Lord Alroy’s request, of course I’ll do it. I will do my best to help as much as possible. What is it?”

“The current state of the marquisate cannot be said to be stable even in empty words. It is a society that has already collapsed due to tyranny, and I cannot handle the regency job alone.”

“You need people to match that.”

“Yes, I am.”

Diona Osrupel slowly shook his head as if he understood.

Convinced that the strategy had worked, I pointed at Captain Xianne, who was looking at me with anxious eyes.

“If you are the leader of Cianne Valeos, I know you will be able to help me manage the security of the Marquisate. The Imperial Black Lion Knights will also be active in the Marquis Territory for a while, so wouldn’t it be better if someone suitable for them accompanies them as acting constables?”

It was a logical suggestion.

A regent, as you say, is practically at the same level as a single lord.

In a situation where treason and extreme corruption were revealed, all administrative bases, from high-ranking officials to low-level officials, were erased overnight.

I can do anything about administrative or financial issues, and fortunately, in the case of a judicial officer who is a vassal who handles legal issues, I am not involved in the case.

The problem was, of course, security.

The fact that the warlock was the lord’s permanent advisor, and even the priests who were supposed to save and fight against evil were corrupt as much as they would rot, and the fact that they ate together with such a warlock spread throughout the territory.

In such a chaotic political situation, of course, there is no choice but to create a ‘security vacuum’.

However, there is no one who can manage the guards or troops, and the Marquis’ Knights are all in a state of being watched by their adjutants.

The reason why that unlucky Levia personally went to this Marquis Territory was also because it was a measure taken at the imperial level to deal with the deterioration of public order that would inevitably occur.

“Hmm, that makes sense. Then, along with the two platoons of the Snow Leopard Knights, I will dispatch Captain Xianne as a person to help Viscount Luverne manage the Marquisate.”

Sianne’s pupils shook. I looked at her and gave her a victorious smile.

Hey, I’m going to break the dildo!
