Chapter 124 Holland (1)

Viscount Holland.

It had been a long time since exchanges with nearby territories were cut off, and the royal family could not pay attention to it as it was a country's own decree.

Naturally, few people knew what Holland looked like recently.

Exceptions are peddlers who wander around all kinds of territories, but only those who have contacts with Holland's internal personnel.

'This is the place.'

Lucas Camilton stopped talking. Now in front of him was the entrance of Lord Holland.

The first impression was that it wasn't as bad as I thought.

It's plain on the outside. I don't know what's going on inside, but is it because you don't want to attract outside attention?’

The entrance was clean.

There was no sign of neglect anywhere.

The guards guarding the entrance were even well-cleaned and armed with flashing armor and weapons.

You don't let your guard down. On the contrary, he is more disciplined than the soldiers of Earl Redwood.’

Maybe

I thought it might not be as bad as I thought.

The story related to Holland is just a ghost story, but Young-ju himself is a person who focuses only on the internal affairs while paying attention to it.

If you think so, your thoughts about Holland also add up.

Blue.

The horse began to move slowly as it pulled the reins.

There was already an order from the king to appoint Lucas as the lord of the place, and the lord does not get off the horse when he enters his land.

Clank. Clank.

Then a guard walked forward. He was holding the halved bird at an angle.

"Stop there. The Viscount Holland does not accept outsiders."

The idea of not accepting outsiders bothered me, but the attitude was excellent. Lucas opened his mouth nervously.

"I'm Lucas Camilton."

"……Oh! I'm Bryson, the captain of security. Excuse me, but could you prove your identity first?"

This was also a great situation.

Security guard Bryson has yet to clear his guard.

It wasn't until Lucas showed the king's appointment that Bryson pulled Halvard close.

"See you, lord!"

"It looks like a royal messenger has visited."

"That's right. I heard you'll be here by the end of the day. It's just that I don't know when you're coming.….”

"Is that why you're blocking outsiders?"

"That's not true. It was an order from Earl Holland."

"Why?"

"I don't know. I'm sorry."

"You don't have to be sorry."

It's still gross, but this is much better than expected.

'Maybe it was a real ghost story. That's true. Even if the royal family didn't pay attention, I wouldn't let the estate fall to the miscellaneous men.’

The happiness circuit has begun to turn around.

All the rumors spread were exaggerated, and I thought that I might have been given a better estate than I thought.

"Let's go in."

"Yep!"

Security guard Bryson took the lead. Lucas took a nervous step.

The entrance is clean, but I didn't know what was going on inside.

However, the first sight I encountered on my feet indicated that the stories surrounding Holland were certainly just rumors.

'Well.'

It looked as neat as the entrance.

By and large, old or simple facilities caught Camilton's eye.

'It's a familiar sight.’

a peaceful country estate However, it was typical of a village that was not poor, but was manageable.

Viscount Redwood was similar to this.

"Did you say Bryson?"

"Yes!"

"You must have been a great lord of Holland. Were you born and raised here?"

"Yes, this is my hometown."

"I've been thinking that gossip is not to be trusted."

"Oh, the rumor is...….”

Bryson laughed bitterly. He seemed to know everything.

"I don't know where the rumor started. Holland... No, even though it's never that place. I think... Oh, I'm sorry. That was presumptuous."

"That's fine. I'd like to hear your thoughts.”

"Yes, I think that rumor has spread because the Duke of Holland was only concerned about the work within the estate.”

"That's why it's on the lips of the nurses."

"……Yes."

Lucas nodded his head.

Bryson's idea was reasonable. Not all nobles did, but many of them used to talk about other people's work as a way of getting bored.

'Cause there's nothing else to do.’

Young-ju, who focuses on her territory and takes care of Young Ji-min more than her own safety, was one of the most important.

Most were busy enjoying their rights rather than their responsibilities as nobles.

'Maybe I was one of them. Full of inns, singing untested stories…….’

Stops while thinking.

Lucas pushed up one eyebrow.

'…Audience?'

It was because of a sense of incompatibility that was found in the moment.

an unprovoked sense of incompatibility

After a quick thought, Lucas realized the cause.

The audience is full of inns. A lot of people. Yes, Lord Redwood.….’

I turned my eyes around in a hurry. The view of the neat village caught my eye. It was no different from the first encounter, but what Lucas felt from it was very different.

'There's no one. No, but it's unnatural. There are too few.'

It's not lively.

That's how Lucas feels right now in a single line.

a well-trained guard Young people full of laughter. At first glance it was just a peaceful routine, but it lacked something decisive.

'There are no children.’

I couldn't see the children smiling brightly.

Children's laughter continued wherever they went.

But it wasn't here. It was quiet, not silent, but the conversation around it was definitely static.

It's like watching a play.… That's right. It's really like a play.’

Lucas pulled his gaze close by.

We looked at the guard Bryson. He was walking silently without saying a word. Lucas concentrated on the walk.

Is this a move that can simply be passed on to the idea of well-trained?’

The opponent is a guard. Lucas was respectful of anyone in his opponent, but he knew that there was a practical limit to their training.

It is at the discretion of the lord to allow the equipment to flash.

But wouldn't it be too much to simply refer to that move as a "stealing move"?

'Now that I see it again, I'm sure it's It's not a move that can come from a guard. It's the step of a well-trained man in his field.’

The sense of incompatibility quickly increased in size.

Anxiety has become convinced, and certainty has created tension.

Trained warrior Bryson didn't miss the change.

"Lord, do you have any inconvenience?"

He smiled, showing his teeth.

It was an awkward laugh.

***

"Your Majesty Camilton is on his way to Yeongju Castle, and the interior of Yeongju Castle is ready early on. We don't have a situation for the Duke of Holland."

Shortly after Lucas Camilton entered the estate.

At Henry's request, Marshall looked roughly inside the estate.

No one noticed his existence, and thanks to him, he had returned to the deepest part of the fortress.

"The situation is not good."

It was something that I could tell even if I didn't have to say it.

There was no lord in permanent residence.

There was a man who "played" Holland's masterpiece, but the real Holland's masterpiece was nowhere to be found.

"The young people out here are not really young people. They are locked inside. They were thin because they couldn't eat properly, and some of them were vomiting blood."

The Duke of Camilton was nothing short of passing on a well-decorated stage.

The place other than the route he passed was like a slum, and all the real Yeongjimin were trapped indoors and couldn't even think of resisting.

"I mean."

Henry spoke like a sigh.

"It means everything we thought was right."

"That's right."

Holland, I had an idea how much it would be to do Holland.

But I didn't expect it to be this bad.

The biggest problem was that they still had no outside intervention.

[LOL Legendary]

[Even the royal family knows this] You're not intervening on purpose?]

I don't think the king knows.

You think there's some kids out there watching? But isn't that a bad thing about kingship?]

There are those who look after me.

It would not have been heard from the king, but it would have been told to some of his subordinates.

But he joined hands with someone who swallowed Holland, and that's why the king doesn't know about it yet.

"But it's weird. If that's the case, the King wouldn't give Camilton a place like this, would he? I'm sure you've added that we need to fix it."

Henry told the viewers.

This was because he could not understand that the king did not know the situation.

I'm sure he just ordered me to give it to him because it's pretty hard.Lol]

[Yes, that's right] It's a bit hard, but I think they ordered me to give it to me.]

I don't think I've told the others everything about you. Some people know, some people don't.

[King's style is enough] We can do everything if you ask us to do.]

I heard it was the worst, but I didn't know it was this bad.Lol]

The conclusion led to one thing.

That's what viewers see, and that's what Henry himself.

The king was aware of the situation but was not a person to neglect.

You just can't pay attention to your whole country.

And it was, well, a convincing structure.

"Marshal, you're not threatened right now, are you?”

"Yes, I overheard the conversation, and we were discussing how to deal with it from now on. It was also about the treatment of the Duke of Holland."

They are bold enough to devour the whole estate.

I don't know what the former lord would have been like, but I'm sure the Duke of Camilton would be in a similar situation.

It has been a long time since the situation became too big to solve alone.

"Then we'll have to move right away. Please go to the black market for Zest. I need to borrow Durandal's man."

"What? The black market? Are you telling me to go to Wangdo?"

"Yes."

Zest blinked his eyes. For a moment, there was a hint of why he brought him here if he was going to do so, but soon he shook his head.

"I'll be back. What should I do with the payment?”

"I've already told you. You can draw a bill in my name."

"Am I?"

"Yes."

"Do you mean I can use your name at will?"

"That's what I've done."

Zest was in awe.

Henry Camilton thought it was 'real.

I don't know if you're suspicious or if you're really honest.

If I say so, it means that he could run away with Henry's million gold.

'We don't know, but this guy seems to trust us.’

Zest suddenly remembered Rommel's words.

It was said shortly after Henry's offer.

I sympathized with him at the time, but now I feel keenly that he was right.

"……Can I go now?"

"Yes, I've told you all the people you need, so you'll take care of it."

Even that indifferent voice!

It was possible because I didn't really, really doubt Zest.

"Yes! I'm on my way!"

Zest ran out at a rapid pace.

I've never felt this way before.’

He had already squeezed Mana, who had not been here for a long time, to the bottom, but the first time he felt this way in his life gave his legs a boost.

"I'd appreciate it if Marshall could get a little more information. Rather than information, I'd like to know more specifically about the situation of the people here.”

"Yes."

Marshall left, too. As always, it was a rare move.

Left alone, Henry looked at the screen.

[He's going to blow his brains out]

[It's been a while since you've been here]

[Sprite, thank you]~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Look at how mad he is] [So righteous]

Despite hearing the disastrous situation, viewers were excited, let alone angry.

Because I think it's a game.’

Now Henry could understand.

For viewers, this world is a game. Death is not death, and terrible looks are not so terrible.

It was like watching a play on a stage.’
