The Teachers Who Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me - The Teachers Who Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me chapter 121

121 – You know that money is good, right?

“It’s already been two months since thieves attacked Yeongju Castle.”

The period coincides with Evan acquiring the land of Ninar.

Cornelia became embarrassed by the manager’s words. I hoped the benefactor would be happy when he saw the gold coin.

I haven’t done anything to the Ninar territory to guarantee my benefactor’s freedom.

In the meantime, thieves invaded.

There were very few gold coins accumulated in the warehouse of Yeongju Castle.

“At first, these guys only robbed the safe a little, but now they take a lot of the tax money. “My liver was swollen.”

“Why not ask for help from the surrounding territories?”

“Oh my, the neighboring fiefdoms are only thinking about preying on Ninar. “I can’t be trusted.”

The manager complained that the neighboring lords could not trust him, so he just complained.

Evan called Michael and whispered to him.

“Watch the manager. Interest may be the culprit. In the meantime, I will check and see if there are any real thieves.”

“…… “Do you doubt the manager?”

“The thieves are thieves. “I doubt they robbed Yeongju Castle for two months.”

Evan felt a familiar feeling. After the empire fell in my past life, humans became very ugly. One farmer was so hungry that he stole an old man’s porridge and sold his child for money. People would do anything if they could eat. Vicious tactics were prevalent.

Evan did not show any outward signs of doubting the manager.

“Manager, you should rest in bed. I will track the thief. Maya.”

“Okay, thank you…” ….”

-Yes, sir!

Maya is learning a lot of magic from Michael.

Maya could also use tracking magic.

Tsutsutsu… ….

Maya felt angry as she performed her magic. How dare he touch Master’s things. No matter who the opponent is, he will scold them. Maya was going to take action this time too.

When Maya took action in the last battle against the heresy, Master did not overdo it. Maya was satisfied that her teacher was safe.

Maya detected the magic power of the thieves buried throughout the warehouse. A remnant of magical power naturally emitted by living things. Maya captured the magic power of the people who came here and found out the direction the magic thread was pointing.

The place where the thread of magic flows is the horse-drawn carriage market.

It was a bush a bit far from the carriage road market.

-It’s the market!

Maya is jumping and pointing with her finger at the horse-drawn carriage market.

Evan nodded his head. I guess there were thieves. Evan winked at Michael and then he and the rest of the group returned to the Horse Road Market.

Walking through the noisy horse-drawn carriage market. The people in the market didn’t react much, thinking that Evan and his group were outsiders and nobles. Ninar Market is a place where nobles from outside often come for a unique experience. So the people in the market were used to nobles.

I didn’t recognize Cornelia’s face.

Cornelia felt sorry.

“I’m sorry, benefactor. I should have dealt with it in advance…….”

“You have nothing to be sorry about.”

Evan shook his head. Cornelia is afraid of invading Evan’s privacy, so she is very careful. There’s no way Cornelia could inspect Evan’s territory on her own. This is also Cornelia’s consideration for her.

“The world does not go according to human will. “If there is something wrong, you can fix it right away.”

“…… Okay.”

Cornelia got the feeling that Evan was an old man.

If you look at his benefactor’s appearance, he looks like a boy who has just become an adult. How can this happen at such a young age? The more you know, the more you see a new benefactor. Cornelia didn’t like this.

“My benefactor always gives me strength.”

“? “I didn’t do anything.”

“hehehe.”

Cornelia smiled. I don’t know who her benefactor is, but Cornelia’s presence alone gives her great strength. Whenever she is next to her benefactor, her heart pounds.

Does your benefactor know this happy feeling?

Maya was staring at Evan and Cornelia.

Maya looks at Evan with a strange gaze. Maya always has sparkling eyes when she sees Evan. Evan was puzzled by Maya’s gaze. An expression she had never seen before while living with Maya.

Maya changed the topic.

-Master, look at that.

Stall located at the end of the carriage road market.

Five grumpy men are surrounding a stall vendor.

“When are you going to pay the rent!?”

“Oh my… “I received it a week ago, so why do I have to pay rent again?”

“If I paid rent a week ago, do I not have to pay it this week? “You don’t want to do business here?”

“Originally, I only received it once a month!”

“That was before. Now we are the law. “Pay rent once a week!”

A man who asks me to pay 1 million points in rent every week.

He had a fierce look and was holding an iron club, which was the typical appearance of a gangster.

“They are the thieves.”

Cornelia’s complexion became cold. How dare she sit in the market and prey on her merchants. She had a swollen liver due to the bandit theme.

-Sabu, I will do it!

Maya quickly stepped forward.

Thieves who appear to be of a very low level. There is no need for Evan to step forward. Evan adjusted Maya’s water level.

“Leave one person alive. “I need to know who the leaders of those guys are.”

-Yes!

After Maya answered, she ran in front of the thieves.

The thieves frown when a small guy approaches. Maya went in front of them and drew her sword.

Chaeng!

“What is this little guy?”

-You guys are thieves, right?

“Kid, if you want to play with swords, find someone your age. “You guys are busy working.”

I can’t communicate. Maya swung her sword and decapitated one of the men. The man’s throat was cleanly cut, with light blood staining the stall. A man’s body collapsing.

The bandits were visibly embarrassed.

“What are you!? It’s crazy?”

-Use your words wisely! The thieves who steal money from merchants are bad!

“We are thieves? Don’t be funny! “We are guards hired by Ninar!”

Thieves who claim to be Ninar guards.

Evan stopped Maya and asked the thieves.

“I want to hear more details.”

“It’s literally like that! We just worked for money! To the manager!”

※

Cha-don, the manager, dug into the ground in a cold sweat.

A place with a large oak tree behind Yeongju Castle. Cha Don hid the gold coins of Yeongju Castle here.

‘Damn it, I never thought a new lord would come!’

I knew very well that there was a new lord, after receiving a letter from the capital.

Since Evan did not visit during that time, Cha-don felt safe and stole the money. The tax thief in the Ninar estate was actually Cha Don. As soon as Evan left, Chadon threw away his crutches and came to collect the hidden money.

‘It has to stand out.’

If you get caught, your head will be cut off!

Didn’t he end up with bruises on his face just because he was acting convincingly? The thieves are actually mercenaries hired by Cha Don. These are mercenaries who joined because they said they would let them live for a long time.

“I guess this was more trash than I thought?”

A dark voice heard behind Cha Don.

Cha-don was very surprised. Wizard Michael was behind Chadon, blazing with his magic power. Michael coolly looked back and forth between the car and the ground where the car had been dug up.

There were numerous bags of gold coins piled up like a mountain on the ground.

“There are only so many gold coins hidden, how much did you spend?”

“Hey, this is hidden to protect the gold coins from thieves! “I never ate it!”

“Besides that, didn’t you take out a horse from the stable to run away?”

Michael followed Cha Don from beginning to end. Seeing Cha-don preparing his horse to run away was, to say the least, nagging. Cha-don bit his lip. This is no excuse.

“Damn it! Yes, I did it! Why! You know that money is good, right!? Why don’t you stop and follow me? “I will give you half of this bag of gold coins.”

“If Nari had said it, it would have been tempting, but since the thief said it, it’s not appealing at all.”

“Are you a thief?”

“Yes, you thief. Let’s see if we get it right.”

Michael lifted the bag of gold coins using telekinesis magic.

10 Bags of gold coins come to mind. Michael grinned.

“They say money is good, so let’s get it right.”

Puck! Pow! Puck!

With a dull sound, the manager Cha-don was reduced to mush.

He became a real sick person after being hit by a sack of gold coins. Evan and his group captured all the hired mercenaries and brought the criminals to their knees.

Thieves with their arms raised side by side in front of the oak tree behind Yeongju Castle.

Michael reprimanded.

“Money should be earned fairly, isn’t it okay to be greedy for other people’s money?”

“Ah…… No.”

“…… Sorry.”

These thieves are very intimidated. As the thieves said that, they looked sideways at the bag of gold coins as if they were disappointed. It’s as if I could have had that money, but I’m sad that I didn’t.

Evan felt that it couldn’t end like this.

“If we punish it mildly, something like this will happen again.”

The temptation of money is a scary thing. Even in his past life, there were many people who attacked Evan for money. Evan sighed.

I don’t like dealing with the weak.

The crime is bad.

Evan picked up the knife and cut off the heads of all the prisoners.

“Ugh, ugh! Help me!!”

“It’s noisy.”

Soon all the prisoners were beheaded, and Evan wiped his sword on the manager Chadon’s clothes and put it in its sheath.

“Michael, write ‘I am a fool who covets the lord’s money’ on their foreheads and hang it in front of the lord’s castle.”

His head is hung on a spear and displayed in front of the lord’s castle.

This is how northern lords treat prisoners. So that other people see this and do not dare to challenge the lord.

Michael nodded his head with a stern expression.

It’s late in the evening.

The decapitated heads of economic criminals were hung in a row in front of the Ninar Castle. On his forehead was written in blood, ‘I am a fool who was greedy for my lord’s money.’

The merchants who recognized this were delighted.

“Wow, those thieves were finally punished!”

“I’ve lost 10 million points in rent alone over the past two months. It’s bad.”

“I had a lot of worries because I worked at the Ninar carriage market for 30 years, but I’m glad I did.”

There were many victims of Cha Don and his mercenaries. Over the past two months, they have levied unfair taxes on merchants who had a lot of money and expropriated them.

While the merchants were relieved, they also expressed their expectations and anxiety towards the new lord.

“The new lord…… “It’ll be a little different, right?”

“Can I get back the rent that was unfairly taken?”

“Hey, hey. Mr. Smith! Don’t you know that it’s easy to pay, but difficult to receive money? “Will your lord give it back to me?”

“Ha… “Profits this month are very tight.”

The merchants are complaining.

After seeing the reactions of the merchants, Evan thought he needed to manage the territory.
