“So, what happened?”
[Medicine! The medicine you gave me!]
“Medicine? Why is that?”
I heard last time that it was selling well without any problems. Is there any problem with sales?
[It’s a problem because it sells too well!]
“what?”
[We’re getting so many orders that we can’t handle it!]
… What is this?
* * *
“… What time is it now?”
“1 o’clock.”
“1 o’clock at night?”
“No… 1pm… … .”
“ah…….”
The pharmacy of Count Elesia.
Five pharmacists with bleary eyes were slowly preparing medicine. Even while they were talking, their hands did not stop moving at all.
“How much time is left until shift change?”
“… 2 hours.”
“2 hours… … .”
At someone’s answer, a long sigh burst out from everyone present at the same time, as if they had made a promise.
“Everyone, cheer up! Once we finish this order, there won’t be any more orders!”
Gaju Herion, who had been quietly helping them prepare the medicine next to them, shouted at the top of his lungs.
At those words, the five pharmacists seemed to gain some energy and their hand movements became a little faster.
“I’ll give you as many bonuses as possible!”
Financial treatment has become even faster.
“This is a new order form.”
“… … !”
But a moment later, everyone there gaped in amazement at the new medicine order form that Secretary Juno brought.
“Oh, sir! An order form! I told you not to take any more.”
“I’ll give you 20 times the original price.”
“… 20 times?”
This time too. Most of the recent orders were like this. If you refuse, they will offer you an exorbitant price and somehow place the order.
“He said that the delivery period doesn’t matter. He said that he could wait patiently and that he would give me a down payment first.”
So there was no reason to refuse.
“Even though they said they would give me plenty of time… … .”
The problem is that even under those conditions, there are too few people to prepare the medicine.
‘It’s not a regular medicine.’
The magic removal potion that Ceres taught us is being made by teaching its recipe only to trustworthy, special personnel who have worked for the Elusia family for a long time.
At first, there were only five people, but as the number of orders increased, the number has now increased to ten.
Although they were taking turns dispensing the medicine, they were still unable to properly meet the order volume.
“By any chance, the place you ordered from this time… … .”
“Yes, I found out that they are your people.”
“ha.”
Herion let out a sigh.
“What is all this about?”
“… …! Lady Ceres!”
At that moment, a welcome voice was heard. Herion raised his head and ran towards Ceres, who had a dumbfounded expression on her face.
“When did you come?”
“just now.”
Ceres frowned as she looked at the apothecaries wandering around like ghosts. What on earth is going on?
“What happened?”
“That’s… … .”
Secretary Juno calmly spoke on behalf of Herion, who was at a loss for where to begin his explanation.
“Recently, we have been receiving a lot of orders for medicine to eliminate magic.”
“It’s a good thing, but if it’s something you can’t handle, you shouldn’t accept it.”
“The terms were too good to turn down. They offered me ten times the profits I could get elsewhere.”
10 times… … . It’s a lot, but it’s not like Count Elesia was short on money, so there wasn’t enough reason to force himself to take orders.
“Besides, it’s a place where it’s hard to refuse an order.”
Ceres’s brow furrowed even more at the following words. Are they being manipulated by those in power right now? Of all places, the Countess of Elesia?
“Is the place you placed the order at the royal palace?”
“It is not the royal family.”
A silent sigh escaped Secretary Juno’s mouth. Then he continued with a single word.
“This is the Duke of Schweiss.”

“…Schweiss?”
…Why does that name appear here?
* * *
“… … .”
Gulp.
Although there were many people gathered in the conference room, it was so quiet that you couldn’t even hear them breathing. Occasionally, you could even see people flinching at the sound of their own saliva being swallowed.
Flutter.
The only noise that broke the suffocating silence was the sound of paper turning.
“… … .”
There was no emotion on the face of the Duke of Schweiss as he looked at the document.
He just calmly reads the documents one by one with an indifferent look.
But there were times when his brow furrowed ever so slightly. Every time that happened, the hearts of the vassals gathered in the conference room sank.
I hope that report isn’t yours.
The Duke of Schweiss’s residence in the capital, which had been empty for a long time, has recently been bustling with people coming and going.
This was because the surrounding vassals were visiting him every day after hearing that the Duke of Schweiss, who had been staying in the western region for a while, had returned to the capital.
They had always sent reports directly to the West, so for the first time in a long while, they had to submit a report in person to him.
Toouk.
After checking all the documents up to the last report, he threw them down on the table.
“This will be reviewed again.”
“yes.”
The table was piled with papers on both sides. When I pointed to one of them, the aide who had been quietly standing next to me took the papers and returned them to the people who had left.
Those who received the documents swallowed hard. It seemed like they were going to have a rough time ahead of them.
‘What, what’s the problem?’
I had to find out the problem myself. What was it that the Duke of Schweiss didn’t like? And then I had to fix it and report it back… .
Some people get through it the first time, some get through it the second time, but what if they still can’t find the right problem the third time?
Brrrr.
The deceased trembled secretly without realizing it.
After several attempts at finding a proper answer, I was sent to a private meeting with the Duke of Schweiss, where I was instructed on the report from beginning to end.
‘Yeah… education… … .’
He points out each and every mistake with those cold eyes, as if he were teaching a child, and cold sweat runs down my entire body.
Rather, if you get angry loudly, you will feel better! Then, wouldn’t you at least ask for forgiveness?
However, it was even more frustrating because he didn’t show any emotion at all, as if he no longer had any expectations of the other person.
And in the end you hear this.
‘This business doesn’t seem to suit you.’
The moment they hear those words, the business is out of their hands. Someone else takes over and starts anew.
So, the eyes of the vassals who looked at the report that came back with the words, ‘review again’, couldn’t help but tremble as if an earthquake had occurred.
I had to somehow find all the problems within three opportunities and write a new report.
“These things will proceed as is.”
“yes.”
Unlike ‘review’, the vassals who were the owners of the reports piled up on the other side breathed a sigh of relief. The only problem was that there were very few of them.
dripping.
Then there was a small knock and the servant entered very cautiously.
“What’s going on?”
The aide who saw the servant quickly approached him with a slightly reproachful look in his eyes.
Because everyone knows the personality of the Duke of Schweiss, who hates having his meetings interrupted by other things.
“That’s… a guest has arrived.”
“Are you a guest?”
The servant, who was also well aware of this fact, continued speaking with a very nervous expression. He did so while watching the Duke of Schweis’s expression, who did not even glance in his direction.
“Yes, I would like to see the Duke… … .”
“Who are you?”
The aide let out a silent sigh. It was obvious that the butler who had been managing the Schweiss family for a long time had been left in the western region.
Because reports are coming in like this without even screening who the guests are.
“Lady Ceres, I told you not to do it now, but you’re still waiting until the meeting is over-”
Bam!
“… … !”
The servant couldn’t finish speaking because the Duke of Schweiss suddenly stood up from his seat.
He strode towards me briskly.
“Did you say Ceres?”
“yes yes!”
“Where are you now?”
“First… I’ll take you to the reception room… .”
The servant looked dumbfounded at the sight of Duke Schweiss opening the conference room door and leaving before he could finish speaking. It was the first time he had seen him in such a desperate manner.
It was the same for everyone else. Everyone exchanged glances, a little bewildered, wondering what was going on.
