Ch 219
Earl of London (4)
Early moning.
Count Rondon immediately got into the carriage.
A meeting with Golden Bank was scheduled in the same city, but he could not move the 100,000 gold gold coins on foot.
The wagon rattled every time it passed the bumpy ground.
Because the country’s budget was not properly used, Redford, despite being the capital, was not as good as any other rural city.
not wagon.
Count Rondon looked down at the gold coin.
The money earned by betting on the land and heirloom of London will be used to overcome the country’s crisis.
those who know the truth.
Said the Earl of Rondon was crazy.
If one step away from the reality of the country and observe the situation, Earl Rondon will be able to live a comfortable life regardless of the existence of Redford.
The Kronos Empire is tolerant of traitors.
If you betray the country and raise your voice to live for the empire, you do not have to live as hard as you are now.
I also knew
The merchants were clear in their understanding, but there were things in the world that had to be done even at risk.
‘Golden Bank’s debt is just the beginning. With this event as an opportunity, I will change the game for Redford.’
If you pay off debt.
will go to the king.
If he doesn’t accept the choice for the country again, he intends to overthrow the country, even if it means becoming a traitor as people say.
Meanwhile, thoughts of rebellion were suppressed.
However, a few days ago, I got the consent of the prince, the heir to the king, regarding this matter.
“Count Rondon. This country has been pushed to the brink. If my father’s rule leads directly to the downfall of this country, I must make a decision for Redford, born of a duty to inherit it.”
Actually.
The King of Redford wasn’t the first to be a jerk.
Before falling into the deviance of gambling addiction, King Redford was the kind of king who smelled like a man.
People respected and sincerely followed King Redford, but an accident occurred that broke his spirit a few years ago.
The three children of the king.
The eldest of the boys and girls died in a horseback accident while practicing horseback riding, and shortly afterward, the youngest daughter hung her head while struggling with the death of her eldest son.
Accidents in succession.
The king fell into despair.
He was addicted to drinking every day, but he found pleasure in life as he entered the gambling board.
The pleasure of making money.
The intense stimulus to blow away the sorrow of losing a child became a bridle from which the King of Redford could not escape.
for that reason.
Count Rondon did not want to give up the king until the very end.
Aside from the circumstantial reason that the country would be ruined by tyrants after rebelling, it was difficult to accept the situation itself of pointing a sword at King Redford.
But now it was the limit.
Now that the Golden Bank debt has been settled by borrowing the Dmitry family’s money, if even the last chance blows a new debt pile, Redford will really fall off the cliff.
Rebellion.
it was complicated
Memories of the past, complicating my head.
That was then.
little by little, little by little.
The wagon shook violently.
The carriage stopped with the sound of a horse’s roar, and the outside began to become noisy.

“Protect the wagon!”
“Attack!”

The outside of the carriage fell into chaos in an instant.

wide road.
At a quiet time when there were still few people coming and going, people jumped out from all over the alleyways and rushed in all at once.
“Attack!”
“There are gold coins in there!”
Hundreds of people.
They looked at them with lustful eyes.
The weapons they were carrying in their shabby appearance were also quite crude, but the number of their heads that filled the field of vision made the soldiers of the London family bewildered.
The soldiers hurriedly raised their shields.
They clashed to protect each other, but they didn’t expect them to be attacked in the middle of the Redford capital.
finally.
people came
Seeing them radiating heat right in front of their noses, the Knights of the Rondon family screamed with an aura.
Quiet rumble.
“Protect the wagon!”
“Attack!”
It was the beginning of the battle.
As soon as the soldiers encountered the people, dozens of people screamed.
It was a shabby appearance that could not even wear leather armor.
The soldiers’ spear knives slashed away loose clothes and took their opponent’s life at once, but the people did not stop running, trampling on the corpse with mad faces.

Some were decapitated.
In the midst of blood and death, someone finally pierced a soldier’s heart.
poof.
Blood splattered everywhere.
The surroundings plunged into chaos.
The soldiers who could not overcome the number began to die, and the knights of the Rondon family actively exerted force by clenching their teeth.
Opponents are just ordinary people.
It was impossible to deal with the Aura swordsmen, but there were those who took advantage of the chaos to move.

” ?!”
The knight rolled his eyes.
a thorn stuck in the neck.
Someone had fired it.
It meant that something unusual had been mixed among the people, but there was nothing he could do with his already dimmed mind.
My body staggered.
The knight, who wielded his sword and slashed the enemy even at the moment of collapse, had blood splattered from his face and his whole body mutilated by people rushing from all directions.

knight’s death.
The color darkened.
Count Rondon, who checked the situation outside the carriage, shouted with a pale face.
“Stop it now! The riches of the carriage are important money to solve the country’s problems! If you are Redford’s people, you must not attack us! Please, please stop! If this money is stolen, there is no future for Redford!”
opponent’s purpose.
I knew it was money.
Earl Rondon screamed, with a blood stick around his neck, but no one listened to him.
That moment.
puck.
Beetle.
The world shook.
Count Rondon threw his face to the floor with his eyes out of focus.
Blood flowed from the back of his head.
With a fading sense of reality, he struggled to see the face of the person who attacked him.
“Check inside the carriage!”
“It’s gold! There are gold coins!”
People shouting with joy.
among them.
Jacqueline was there.
At first he was nothing more than a needle thief, but he boldly attacked the London family’s wagon in the middle of the capital.
” I, please.”
No more mouth fell.
I wanted to stop them, but the fading voice could not be heard by the excited people.
suddenly.
Roman Dmitry’s words came to mind.
When he said that he did not need help with the meeting with the Golden Bank, Roman Dmitry handed over a box of 100,000 gold coins.
“Be careful. The Count made the mistake of being generous when he had to use his hands. It doesn’t matter what story the people who attacked the mansion had. A family called London, the Kingdom of Redford. The moment you realize that the wall is not as high as you think, it is not strange what happens from then on.”
his words.
Even though I knew what it meant, I ignored it.
At least, he didn’t want to accept the fact that this country had been so wretched as that.
And now.
He gasped for breath on the cold floor.
As she looked at Jacqueline taking her gold coins, she only gasped, her voice was not coming out.
like that.
In his fading mind, Count Rondon lost his mind.

this attack.
It came from the information of the owner of the hop house.
“Jacqueline. Early tomorrow morning, I heard that the London family were trying to steal the country’s property. This information was given to me by a servant working for the London family, and it must have been intended to move the property to a safe place in case Redford fell. Meeting Dmitry was also an extension of him. It is clear that he intends to leave for exile, not to the Kronos Empire, but to the Principality of Dmitry.”
at that word.
Jacqueline was furious.
The people of Redford know that the country is collapsing, but there is no way to use their hands, and the richest man in Redford even thinks of escaping.
I absolutely couldn’t tolerate it.
The money the London family had earned while destroying others needed to be taken back, at least for the sake of this country.
“You dirty bastard bastard. We can no longer stand by the atrocities of Maekuk-no.”
past incident.
Count Rondon took a step back.
Despite the use of crude farm implements, his docile compromises instilled confidence in Jacqueline’s heart.
So I drove the wagon.
Jacqueline changed her location and checked the gold coin box, and her eyes widened.
“Hey, how much is this?”
“At least tens of thousands of gold?”
Moment.
angry
Tens of thousands of gold is enough money that many people do not have to worry about their livelihood for at least a year, but Earl Rondon tried to steal this huge amount of money.
His judgment was right.
It was not in line with the world’s justice that this money, which had been soaked in the blood and sweat of the Redford people, was used for the wretched patriarchs.
He headed to the square.
Looking at the people starting the morning, they shouted whale whales.
“Everyone, gather here! From now on, I will hand out the gold coins I stole from Count Maekukno London!”
Jacqueline.
He did not consider himself an ordinary thief.

A being who takes money stolen from the wicked and returns it to its original place.
people flocked
Hearing the word gold coins, people with skinny faces, unable to eat, ran to see where they got their strength.
He gave them gold coins.
one by one.
A bright smile appeared on Jacqueline’s face as she gazed at the rapidly shrinking chest of gold coins.
even then
Jacqueline firmly believed that she was doing the right thing.

Tick tock.
Time has passed.
When the Earl of Rondon did not show up until 9 o’clock, when we had promised to meet, a man showed a dissatisfied look.
“Treasurer. I think Golden Bank understood the situation of the Redford Kingdom in its own way. Trusting the words of His Majesty, he lent a large sum of money, partially waived interest, and waited patiently until the end, even though he had not paid back even interest, let alone repaying the principal. But what are we going to do now? After the scheduled time, why didn’t the Earl of Rondon appear!

was an executive officer.
He was a man in power who could plunge Redford into hell with a single word, so the Treasurer said urgently.
I’m really sorry. Count Rondon is not one to break the promise of time. Obviously something happened on the way here… .”
“Stop talking nonsense!”
Park.
threw away the documents.
At the scattered papers, the treasurer’s eyes fluttered wildly.
said the executor.
“Neither do we know the reputation of Earl Rondon at Redford. He has a reputation for being the kind of person who destroys people around him with his brutal business skills and takes care of his own teeth. Even so, Golden Bank does not judge people based solely on their reputation. If the relationship with us had been smooth, he might have trusted and waited for the treasurer’s words with the bailiff’s personal abilities. By the way. What has the Earl of Rondon done right in the meantime? Representing Redford, I have been putting off the time to pay back the money after taking on this task, and on the day I promised to meet, I did not even show myself. Trust is not built in an instant. Rather than tell the Treasurer that something might happen, I think the Earl of Rondon has abandoned Redford and found a way to live.”

got up from his seat
There was no reason to wait here any longer.
“From now on, Golden Bank will classify ‘Redford Kingdom’ as a bad debtor. We will do everything we can to repay the debt, and we will formally protest this issue to the international community as soon as possible.”
“Gee, Executor!”

took a step back
Seeing the attendants following him, the treasurer got up urgently and tried to grab even the crotch of his pants.
That was then.
“Roman Dmitry-sama, heir of the Principality of Dmitry, enters.”

The servant’s voice was heard.
And at the wide open door, people’s eyes turned to one place at the same time.
