120
It’s been three days since I was awarded the title.
In the meantime, I reorganized my business.
After lowering taxes on commerce, he called merchants together and announced plans for city development.
A complex tourist city in the East.?
This was the future this city would have.
Beautiful scenery. Lots of entertainment. And even the supply of artifacts through the Magic Tower.
There were so many plans in my head.
‘Money is the problem.’
Even if your plan is perfect, if you don’t have the money to execute it, it’s all for naught.
Now that he was the head of the city, it was time to start earning some money.
Depending on how the upcoming meeting with Elwin’s boss ends, the pace of the city’s development will also change significantly.
While I was lost in thought for a moment, Erciel came into the office.
“Your Majesty, the execution ceremony will be held soon.”
“okay?”
The execution ceremony of the former lord.
It was a schedule set for this morning.
By now, the guy and his family will have been captured by the soldiers and taken to the square.
“Oh. I have to go. You don’t have to come. It won’t be a nice sight.”
“It’s okay. I’m getting used to it now… I want to go too.”
Well, what can I do if he wants it?
As we walked out the door with her, members of the Sword Demon Corps, including Seron, began to follow us like shadows.
Originally, this role was to be filled by Leonhard, but when he took over as the Commander of the Knights, they had been in talks to take over the role.
Marquis Houdini.
Until we come into direct contact with the bastard, these should be sufficient.
By the way, there are a total of fifteen bodyguards.
It felt like I was the president.
Is this the power of authority?
‘By the way, your momentum has become quite sharp.’
When I looked inside the people through the eyes of the mind, I could see the aura accumulated in their danjeon.
Public opinion seemed to be that given just a little more time, it would reach the Expert lower level.
There, Hans and James, who were originally top-tier gladiators, also had improved considerably in skill.
With that level of momentum, he would be an upper-mid level sword user.
The rest of the personnel were at least low-level sword users.
Perhaps because he had a lot of experience in actual combat in the arena, his growth rate was quite fast.
It seemed that after a year or so, a fairly decent escort force would be completed.
‘Grow up quickly.’
If your growth ever gets stuck, I will personally help you.
While I was looking at the swordsmanship, the city square began to come into view.
In the middle of the square, Remington and his family were tied up.
“This son of a bitch!”
“Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
It was a grave crime to attempt to harm a fellow noble.
I don’t know if it would be different if I had touched a similar family, but the Marquis is one of the most prestigious families in the vast empire, ranked in the top ten.
Eventually, the boy was stripped of his noble title for that crime.
Even the royal family abandoned him.
No, actually, strictly speaking.
‘The third prince, who is the head of the household, must have abandoned him.’
Remington belonged to the Third Prince’s faction.
At this point, the two remaining princes would have been working hard to attack in order to cut off one of the third prince’s limbs.
There was also a situation where he had to watch the mood of the Marquis, who was maintaining neutrality between the three princes.
The choice was decided from the beginning.
When I saw Remington, I burst out laughing.
You should have taken a good look at the person before touching him.
As we moved towards the center of the square, the villagers who had been throwing stones in anger hurriedly lowered their heads.
“Soldiers in charge of execution, come forward.”
At those words, the soldiers standing behind them began to move one by one behind the count and his family.
I looked at the people of Yeongji and shouted loudly.
“Viscount Remington. This man is the one who dared to send an assassin to the Marquis, and who has been exploiting the people of the territory and committing all sorts of evil deeds! You all know this very well, don’t you?”
“yes!”
“After investigating him, we found that he was also involved in the distribution of drugs that were banned by the Empire……”
After giving a long speech about Remington’s misdeeds.?
He asked a question to the blushing Yeongjimin, who seemed excited.
“This guy is no longer a noble. He is a commoner like you. Let me ask you. Is there anyone who thinks that this guy should be kept alive?”
“doesn’t exist!”
“What do you think we should do with the family members who have been sucking your blood for decades by his side?”
“We must kill them all!”
Yeah, that’s right.
When I saw the people of Yeongji responding so enthusiastically, it seemed like the family members had also built up quite a bit of notoriety.
Through this execution, thoughts of the former lord will be cleanly erased from my mind.
Prinus.
Now this place was entirely my territory.
“Let the execution proceed.”
The moment I finished speaking.
Remington’s eyes widened.
“Save me! Baron Kyle! This can’t be happening!”
How can this not be possible?
Judging from the way he was struggling, he seemed to not want to die.
As the soldiers’ swords approached, the man who had been moving his bound body around began to scream.
“The Third Prince will never stay still!”
The more I look at this guy, the funnier he gets.
I walked up to him and whispered something in his ear.
“Can’t you tell by the fact that you’ve been stripped of your title? I think… it seems like he’s already abandoned you.”
“…….”
At those words, the bastard bowed his head.
“Don’t feel too bad. Baron Hamington will be your companion on the journey.”
“Ugh…… Please…… Please save me. If I can’t, then at least my family members…….”
“Wouldn’t the people who died because of you have said the same thing?”
“I… I’m a noble! I’m different from those lowly people!”
“Not anymore.”
“…….”
No further words were needed.
After seeing the soldiers, I quickly gave orders.
“Go ahead.”
“ancient!”
So the execution ceremony took place in the square.
The people of Yeongji who saw that sight raised both their hands and began cheering my name.
“Long live Kyle Celtarion!”

“Long live my lord!”
“Wow!”
I see there was a lot of stuff piled up.
It wasn’t bad for me either.
Since the execution was going to happen anyway, it was better to do it publicly like this to increase my popularity.
“The evil former lord who devoured Prinus, Remington, has been beheaded at this hour! From now on, this city will develop brilliantly! I, Kyle Celtarion, promise this! So, let everyone live with hope in their hearts!”
“Wow!”
Have you ever been cheered so warmly in your life??
I guess it probably didn’t exist.
It didn’t feel bad to receive such a loud cheer.
After finishing that short speech, I returned to the inner castle. There was a guest waiting for me inside the castle.
It was a merchant from the upper part of Elwin.
Surprisingly, the merchant was Himon, the owner of the injured group.
[The mind’s eye is activated.]
[This is a low-level opponent.]
[Completely grasp the essence of the target.]
[Himon (41)]
[Talent: Excellent Merchant]
[Characteristics: Honesty, Faithfulness, Competitiveness]
Excellent merchant.
That was a talent of a considerably high rank even among the nobles. So, as a semi-noble, he would have been able to take on the role of the head of the largest Mana Stone Merchant Group in the Empire.
In a word, it meant that he was a skilled person.
Himon looked at me and nodded.
“It’s nice to meet you again. I’m Himon, the owner of the wounded group. Baron Kyle.”
“Yes. Nice to meet you. By the way, I didn’t know you would come in person…….”
“Haha. Since you were introduced to me by Abel himself, how could I just sit still? Of course I had to go see you.”
“Come this way.”
Himon and I entered the office and started sipping tea.
There was a brief silence, and Himon spoke first.
“All the lower-level mana stones have been prepared.”
“Thank you. I will check the goods and then make payment.”
“Yes. By the way, the weather is really hot these days. Since it’s not raining… I think the Baron must be having a lot of troubles.”
“Not really.”
He tilted his head at my answer.
“……yes?”
“Isn’t all the problem caused by water? I have a solution to that problem.”
“……What is that……? When I visited the city……most of the grain was dried up…….”
“I plan to solve that problem from now on.”
At those words, Himon’s eyes became serious.
It seemed like he immediately realized that I wasn’t bragging.
The achievements I have built up so far will also have helped my faith.
Is it because you’re a merchant?
He was a man with a remarkable eye for people.
“……If you don’t mind, may I ask how you would solve that problem?”
“It’s simple. I plan to solve it with a magic circle.”
“……A magic circle?”
“yes.”
“That… wouldn’t be impossible? There is certainly a magic circle that activates water attribute magic… but it wouldn’t be very efficient.”
In order to benefit from the magic circle, the amount of water produced when using the mana stone had to be large.
Even if you can’t do it, shouldn’t you be able to pump out water to the price of Mana Stone?
In that sense, most magic circles could be said to be duds.
It is only now, when water has become scarce due to the Great Famine, that we can say that the price range has been barely adjusted.
I said quietly after seeing Himon.
“Luckily, I discovered a dungeon a few months ago. I was able to obtain a magic circle from there.”
“no way……?”
“Yes. After testing that magic circle, I found that it can extract water with remarkable efficiency.”
A magic circle discovered by chance in a dungeon.
It was safe to explain it this way.
At those words, Himon’s eyes sparkled.
Just by looking at it, you could tell that it was the gaze of a merchant who had smelled money.
It was a very good thing for me too.
Because that was the intention when I brought it up in the first place.
“……Can you tell me how efficient it is?”
“I think it’s about ten times more effective than a normal magic circle.”
“……Huh? Ten times?”
“you’re right.”
“That… Then… Isn’t that an incredible magic circle? If such a magic circle exists…! The current famine and lack of water is also…!”
“I think we can solve the water shortage problem in our territory right away. I think it might be a magic circle used by the ancient empire. The civilization of that time… would have been able to produce a magic circle of this size.”
No matter how good the existing efficiency is, if it is amplified tenfold, it is a different story.
Himon seemed to sense it too, and swallowed his saliva. That too only lasted for a moment.
He who had been silent began to speak.
“……I think there must be a reason why the Baron brought this up to me. Do you wish to sell that magic circle to our Elwin Merchant Association?”
also.
You’re quick-witted.
I smiled brightly when I saw Himon.
“That’s right. The upper side wants to supply this magic circle to the imperial territories.”
“…….”
“You could probably rake the gold.”
Magic circle.
I intended to spread this throughout the empire.
If it’s the magic circle I know, it could solve the great famine that has befallen the empire to some extent.
Of course, it wasn’t free.
Because the plan was to make a very salty profit by using the middlemen right in front of them.
The lords who sold it for a certain price will try to buy the magic circle with fire in their eyes.
‘That’s great.’
This was impossible to monopolize anyway.
If you use a magic circle on the territory, water will pour out.
What if something like that happened in a situation where there was a water shortage due to a famine?
Everyone’s attention couldn’t help but be focused on this side.
Anyone who figured out the shape of the magic circle could use it. Even if I tried to hide its shape, it would soon be revealed to the world.
Selling it first would have been a much better option.
Not only was it possible to save the continent’s people, but it was also possible to divert the attention pouring in this direction.
Finally, you may be able to earn a huge amount of money in a short period of time.
If this isn’t killing three birds with one stone, then what is?
I feel a little sorry for Abel because the price of grain will drop in the future due to the magic circle.
That would have been enough if they had handed me another piece of rice cake later.
Then, Himon, who had been staring at me intently, asked quietly.
“……If it’s not too much trouble, could you please tell me how that magic circle works? Of course, I’m not asking you to tell me what it looks like. I just want to know about its efficiency.”
“Yes. Of course you should take a look. Please follow me.”
So Himon and I started moving towards the inner magic laboratory.
