115 Part 1 Complete
It’s been two days since I got my own slush fund.
In the meantime, while handling various tasks, I had a rough idea of how the city of Prines was run.
‘I guess I should start sweeping it away slowly.’
A map depicting the interior of the Prinus.
I looked at the map and smiled.
Before the family’s forces left the city, there was one thing that had to be taken care of.
As soon as I left the office, I called Craft and Duke. After calling them, I immediately took out the map.
“Could you please take a look at this?”
The map I took out had red spots all over it. The old knight tilted his head when he saw it.
“What is this?”
“These are the places where forces operating illegal businesses in Prinus are located.”
“If it is an illegal business…….”
“You could say that this is a business that the Count turned a blind eye to while receiving bribes. I have one favor to ask of you, Lord Craft. Before you leave, I want you to sweep up all of these places.”
Prinus.
It was a city famous for its luxury and entertainment.
Didn’t they say that where there’s honey, there will be bees?
It was similar here.
The so-called humans of the underworld.
This was the city where such people were rampant.
It was no different from flies flocking to a place with trash.
They are dung flies that have nothing good to offer in the city, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to get rid of them all.
The places I had pointed out on the map were all illegal businesses that were run by bribery schemes, so even if knights and soldiers came storming in, there was no way to resist.
In the first place, the gangsters don’t have enough troops to fight the military head-on.
Crucially.
‘These troops are the troops of the main house.’
If you were a private soldier of the Prinus, then I wouldn’t know, but what if you dared to touch the private soldier of the Marquis??
The aftermath itself is impossible.
The great men, like the Marquis, never forgot their grudges.
In particular, the reputation of the Storm Troops, the family’s representative knight order, was so well-known that even ordinary citizens knew it as common knowledge.
So, it could be said that it was much better to utilize the family’s forces.
Prinus’ private soldiers who were taken prisoner.
I smiled bitterly as I thought of them.
‘That vegetable goes with that rice.’
This was because among the soldiers who worked under the Count, there were quite a few who had very bad personalities.
Why else would words like murderous and vile be attached to the characteristics?
It felt like watching Adolf’s 5th Army Corps.
Of the soldiers from Sacheon, only about two thousand were rescued. The rest were all locked up in prison for the time being. I have no intention of using them as soldiers, but if I were to release them into the city right away,
This was because the possibility of getting a job at an illegal business located anywhere seemed very high.
“Will that be okay? It’s no different from turning the foundation of this city upside down…….”
“This is a city that has rotted from the root. If we don’t sweep it all away now, it will be quite a struggle later.”
“Understood. I will call the soldiers.”
“Yes. I would like you to take charge of this place, Lord Craft. Since it is the most powerful organization, fierce resistance is expected. And my brother……”
So I started dividing my troops, pointing to points on the map. Even the smallest units moving had at least three knights in them. Those guys, who were nothing more than gangsters, wouldn’t be able to resist.
After finishing distributing the personnel like that.
He handed me a piece of paper with several people’s names written on it.
“These guys must be caught. They are the leaders.”
“Okay, I understand. Don’t worry at all.”
“thank you.”
So Kraft gathered his troops.
After dividing the knights and assigning soldiers.
“Today, I will sweep away the places I have designated. They are the ones who have been committing all sorts of illegal acts, so if they resist, you may shoot them dead.”
He spoke decisively.
“ancient!”
The knights and soldiers answered vigorously to those words.
Then should I go too?
The moving crew was very small.
There was Leonhard, me, five mid-level knights, and about fifty soldiers.
The place I was going to was the third largest in the sphere of influence.
Blue shadow.
It was a place with a fairly plausible group name for a gang of thugs.
The place where they were doing business was in a fairly central area of Prinus.
‘What a pain in the ass city.’
In modern terms, it would be no different than a drug dealer setting up a store in the middle of the city.
If there had been a business like this within the realm of the Marquis, it would have been destroyed in an instant.
As we approached the main entrance of the store, ugly looking guys started looking at us.
The glaring continued for a moment.
At the sight of my gorgeous costume and the knights standing behind me, their eyes grew wide as big bells.
“hey.”
“……Huh?”
“Call the highest man here. I’ll give you five minutes. If he doesn’t come, I’ll wipe everything out.”
“…….”
At those words, a suffocating silence fell over the room.
I smiled faintly when I saw them.
“There are only four minutes and fifty seconds left… How dare you ignore the Lord’s words?”
The moment those words ended.
The punks seemed to have come to their senses and began to hurriedly run into the store.
Boom!
Yeah, right.
You’re running very hotly.
There was a reason why they sent a notice to bring the leader like this.
It was because I was worried that if I made a fuss right from the start, they would notice my intention and try to escape.
It’s not just me who’s calling the leader like this now, but other units as well.
I’ll come out and see for now.
Because the fact that you called means that you wanted to have a conversation, so they’ll assume it’s because of that.
Moreover, since the previous lord accepted bribes and turned a blind eye to the business, there is an underlying thought that the newly appointed lord will do the same.
Well, that prediction would be immediately proven wrong.
Let’s wait a moment. The giant came rushing out the door.
[The mind’s eye is activated.]
[This is a low-level opponent.]
[Understand the essence of the target.]
With the activation of the mind, information began to appear above the bastard’s head.
[Gerard (42)]
[Talent: Martial Arts, Melee]
[Characteristics: Sodomite, Sadist, Misanthrope]
Gerard.
It was a name I had seen in the viscount’s ledger.
The leader is right.
The guy who came running in such a hurry bowed his head toward me.
“Hello, my lord! My name is Gerard!”
The guy who had shouted loudly looked at me and started laughing, revealing his yellow teeth.
“I heard you’ve just taken up a new post… Are you coming to us because of a ‘tax’ issue?”
“Similar.”
The guy’s eyes sparkled as he said that.
“Haha… I can pay more taxes than I paid before. Of course I should pay if there is a proper compensation.”
“It’s not the amount of money that I’m receiving.”
“Yes? If not the amount, then what…….”

“Your neck.”
“…….”
The muscular giant tilted his head at those words.
The lord held the power over the life and death of his subjects.
It’s not just taxes, there’s a lot you can take away.
From what I could tell, he didn’t seem to understand what I was saying right away.
Then I guess I should personally help you understand.
I looked at the six knights behind me and gave the order.
“Arrest all the guys here. If they resist, you can execute them immediately. Oh, and leave that guy alive.”
Gerard.
There was something to be found out from that guy.
One thing that all these dirty guys have in common is that they keep slush funds.
He was also one of the people who crossed the Jordan River after revealing the location of the slush funds like the Count.
When I spoke, pointing precisely at the muscular giant, the knights answered vigorously.
“I obey your orders!”
Sreung!
“What the heck!”
Gerard and his friends started screaming when they saw this. It seemed like they had finally realized that something was wrong.
Since it had come to this point, it could be said that it was a judgment that was too late.
Leonhard had already come close to him. At the sight of him, Gerard’s sword glowed with a bright yellow aura.
‘Hoo.’
I wonder where the leader of all the gangs came from to learn the secret method.
But his level wasn’t high.
If you hit it well, it would be at the level of expert lower level.
Leonhard’s sword also had an aura.
Shhh!
One blow.
The blow split Gerard’s sword in two.
Bam!
Immediately afterwards, he was hit in the face with a cool punch and fell to the floor.
It was a fist fight just like a picture.
You’re probably having happy dreams by now.
When you open your eyes, hell will begin.
As soon as their leader was knocked down in one blow, the men began to flee in all directions.
Its appearance resembled that of a cockroach hiding in a corner to avoid people.
“Don’t miss a single one.”
He shouted a word to the messengers chasing them. Five mid-level knights would barely be able to escape the thugs.
Leonhard and his men were given separate orders.
“Arrest everyone in here.”
“ancient!”
The soldiers and I rushed into the workplace.
“Kneel down obediently! The Lord is coming!”
“Anyone who resists will be shot on sight!”
Blue shadow.
It took less than an hour for the third largest illegal operation in Prinus to collapse.
* ? ?* ? ?*
“Your Majesty. I heard that all the members of the Red Lion and Black Eagle have been captured.”
Anyway.
Just hearing the name, you’d think they were a successful knight order.
They were all names of groups run by gangsters.
Red lion and black eagle.
These two groups were also the ones running the largest illegal businesses in Prinus.
I asked Leonhart a question after he finished his report.
“Did you catch the leaders?”
“Yes. They arrested all the family members as well.”
“Put them all in the underground cell, and find out where the money is hidden. No matter the means.”
“Okay. Now that you know, what are you going to do about it…….”
“Take care of it quietly. And the rest of the family too.”
It was best to just wipe them all out, as they could become a hindrance if left alive.
The escort knight nodded at those words.
“Then what do you plan on doing with the rest of them?”
“Are you talking about common thugs?”
“yes.”
“Those who commit murder are to be executed. Those involved in drug distribution are to be executed after finding out the distribution channel. Likewise, all serious criminals are to be executed.”
Those who are not worth keeping alive should be killed.
I had no intention of leaving the trash that was eating away at my land to waste away.
If we organize things neatly now, we will be able to move forward toward dazzling development in the future.
Opportunities are meant to be taken advantage of when they arise.
“I plan to release petty criminals who were forced to become criminals simply to make a living after they have been rehabilitated.”
Of course, it would take quite some time to sort it out, but I was determined to filter out all the filth, no matter how long it took.
“And once you’ve decided on the people you want to execute, bring them to me. I’ll check them one last time and then decide.”
By looking at their characteristics, you can determine whether they are worth killing or not. Leonhard nodded slowly at my words.
The reports that kept coming in were very positive.
News was coming in that the illegal businesses had been completely destroyed without much damage.
“Did you bring all their money?”
“Yes. If we add up all the money raised so far, it will amount to about two thousand platinum coins.”
Good.
If you add the slush funds of the leaders here, you could say that there was enough money to develop the city. At least it wouldn’t sit there without doing anything.
While receiving reports like that.
The direct crystal ball in my arms began to ring.
When I turned on the crystal ball, Abel’s face appeared.
?Kyle. We got a call from the royal family.
“If it’s a contact…?”
?My father has exerted his power. Soon, His Majesty’s letter will be sent to Prines. Of course, it is not a letter offering the official title of Lord. It is a temporary title.?
Hoora.
Whether temporary or permanent.
The only difference was the period of time during which they could be eaten, but the word ‘permanent resident’ attached to the end was the same.
This was pretty good news.
As a temporary resident, he would need to meet the conditions to become a full resident, but it was no different from being able to exercise the powers of a real resident for a certain period of time.
“Have you been awarded a title?”
?That’s right. For now, he’s a baron. However, this title isn’t permanent.
‘Baron.’
Although I was the son of a Marquis, that didn’t mean I had any title.
It was like I was given a formal title.
Of course, it was only for the period of time given as temporary residence, but that didn’t matter.
Because I was thinking of getting rid of the modifier ‘temporary’ in the near future.
‘I got the title, the land, and even the position of the Lord of the Tower.’
It was a faster growth and development than any game I’ve ever played.
This was possible because he started off with a solid background and great talent.
From now on, you will be able to gather strength much more freely and quickly than before.
By using the power gathered in this way.
‘I guess I’ll have to deal with the scattered tasks one by one.’
The Alton Empire begins to falter due to the issue of succession, and Houdini explores the Millennium Barrier.
And the villains behind all of this.
I still had a lot of things to deal with.
I looked at Abel in the crystal ball and asked a question.
“If it’s a temporary position… are there any conditions to becoming a full-time resident?”
In order to make the title and lands given to me entirely mine, I had to listen to the conditions presented by the imperial family.
