Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 433

 

Voiceless Scream



If men have willpower and pride


Women have their own dignity.


Most of the young men at tonight's party have their eyes glued to one woman.


The beauty that men look for in a woman


Thin limbs and waist


Whiteness of skin


Elegant behavior


Leg length


At least that's what they're looking for on this continent.


She doesn't fit into any of these


Her limbs and waist are thick compared to her surroundings.


As an assistant to the Knight Commander, her skin shows the tan lines of her armor.


I wouldn't say it's vulgar, but I wouldn't say it's elegant either.


The length of the legs is not much different from the torso.


But she is beautiful nonetheless.


Her healthy appearance, without being overdressed, attracted the attention of nobles.


Young people are looking for an opportunity to talk to her.


But there's a man next to her who won't allow it.


The man known as the Commander of the Imperial Knights has sharp eyes.


While having lively conversations with the nobles, he deftly makes eye contact with those who look at her.


With such a man next to her, even the noblewomen can't approach him carelessly.


The young women, like the young men, also turned their gaze to the Knight Commander.


Although they are making overt s*xual advances, he responds politely without changing his complexion.


I... honestly don't want to get involved.


I can only smell danger from them.


I am treated as a nobleman, but I am not of the highest class.


I'm nothing more than a piece of wood who manages the perfumes refined in Iluikamira.


So…


"Good day to you."


I wish you had not spoken to me!


"Knight Commander-dono, is there anything you need from me?"


"Hmm, no. I called on you because I heard that you are the one who manages the perfumes in this country."


That's why it's the end


I'm so far down in the tree that I'd sooner be counted from the bottom.


"Compared to Marquis Murazuga over there, I'm just on the bottom."


"Is it so?"


"Yes, if you like, I can arrange it with the Marquis."


So please don't come to me from now on.


"Oh yeah, the principality's perfume is wonderful."


"Thank you"


Um, that's why I'll introduce him to the Marquis.


I don't want to get involved anymore


From what I heard beforehand


The knights of the Empire are as powerful as the nobility in the country.


The Commander of the Knights is comparable to a marquis.


In fact, depending on the situation, there may even be a situation where he can give instructions to the duke.


Please give me a break


The situation I am in now is the equivalent of being approached by the imperial family.


Even in that situation, the young noble is trying to approach me.


But I won't allow it


Isn't there someone who can defuse this situation without reading the atmosphere?


Or rather, someone help me.


My stomach hurts


And despair accelerates


The important thing is that Marquis Murazuga started a conversation with the woman who was the Assistant to the Commander.


And the Knight Commander tacitly approved it.


"You are Baron Fossle, I believe?"


"H-how do you know my name?"


How does he know?


Maybe he knows the names of all the nobles in the principality?


"Ah, if I remember correctly, Baron Karls, three generations ago, was promoted because he was able to secure a stable supply of spices in his territory?"


How do you know!


The Empire didn't appear on the continent until eight years ago.


Did they check it during that time?


By what criteria did you look me up?


No……


You don't mean to tell me that you've investigated the entire continent in eight years?


"Actually, I'm also interested in the principality's perfumes, and if you don't mind, I'd like to purchase the Baron-dono's perfumes."


"I see… do you mean it’s for Commander-dono’s personal use?"


"No, actually, His Majesty the Emperor is also enthusiastic about this matter."


...What did you just say? Did you say the Emperor?


"Of course, I will check with the marquis and prince who are the rulers at a later date."


"W-what are you talking about?"


Patience.


I could be wrong.


Don't scream! Act calmly like a nobleman!


"If you don’t mind, I would like you to become a major trading partner with the Empire."


I want to praise myself


My forefathers


My family to the last generation


I have managed to remain calm in this situation without raising my voice.
