I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 26

＃After returning, the family was ruined (26)

“Grand Duke! How have you been?”

Hans entered the office and bowed his head.

“result?”

“Count Chayman did not seem very suspicious of our joining. Rather, as soon as we arrived, they took the initiative to welco us.”

Having destroyed the Barony, it’s no wonder my body feels hot.

Ethan nodded.

“You an to take advantage of the conflict between the two factions. Sounds like a great strategy. “So your next target is Baron Ronton?”

“…uhh. yes.”

Only then did Hans’ eyes turn to the boy near the archduke.

‘Who is it?’

If you see them standing fairly close together, it ans that a trusting relationship has been ford.

Hans looked at Ethan.

“He is….”

“My advisor.”

“My na is Lawrence.”

He introduced himself with a grave face.

What a treason!

Just looking at it, it is a position that would be closest to the archduke.

‘I was only away for about a week.’

If you have held such an important position in a short period of ti, you must have outstanding abilities.

Unless it is.

Hans’ eyes turned to Lawrence’s face.

‘For a man, his face is quite handso.’

Just looking at the delicate arms and legs gave off an androgynous feel.

Perhaps the archduke had that kind of taste…

Hans’ secret thoughts could not continue.

“What about Myers?”

“The youngest, Confucius, has decided to enter closed training for the ti being. “As your will is so great, you will definitely begin to win the earl’s attention.”

“What about you?”

“I also gained my own level of trust. Chaiman, that bastard seed very curious about the Archduke.”

Hans told everything that happened during his eting with the Count.

“okay. Be sure to provide appropriate information. Lawrence?”

“yes. “Your Majesty.”

“Semi-noble Hans here is a butler working under . “There will be a lot of work to do in the future, so let’s at least talk to each other.”

“All right.”

The two people left the office with their heads bowed.

* * *

A small conference room in the baron.

Hans and Lawrence sat down facing each other. His eyes as he looked at Lawrence were full of wariness.

Trickster (策士).

In a word, it ans a trickster.

In the thirty-two years of his life, Hans has never been told that he lacks cunning.

‘That was originally my place…’

So guy took over that place overnight.

And that was the person who looked like a gentleman who would bite the desk, which Hans hated the most.

‘You should have used your brain.’

It’s already been more than twenty-five years since I’ve been rubbing my palms until they get worn out.

Is it possible for Saennim to follow his own experience of rolling and rolling in combat since he was young?

Also using two factions.

And the fact that Baron Ronton is the Archduke’s next destination must be true, as he gained trust and attracted attention as a handso man.

That was when Hans was maintaining an uncomfortable silence.

“It looks like the deacon isn’t that pleased with .”

“…Keuhum!”

“Fortunately, the.”

“…huh?”

“I don’t really like people like you, butler.”

“Are you saying this only because you know well?”

“I’ve seen a lot of people who are like bats.”

Lawrence, or rather Sylvia, had been living in the back alley for well over nine years. In the anti, I have observed nurous human groups.

Hans is clearly the type of person who wags his tail at the strong and tries to eat the weak.

We are in a situation where we will need to collaborate on nurous things in the future. If you showed yourself being pushed around by that type of person, there was no doubt that you would continue to be ignored in the future.

It was like that just looking at it now.

Aren’t the corners of your eyes filled with a dark energy, as if you’re imagining sothing unpleasant?

‘Not a noble, but a semi-noble.’

Although he was a commoner, he received the title of warden directly from the Grand Duke, so there was no reason for him to be pushed out of the fight. Hans flinched at Lawrence’s harsh words.

An expressionless face and blunt tone of voice.

I thought there would be almost no emotional ups and downs because of that.

‘But more than I thought…’

Isn’t he quite temperantal?

Just by looking at his appearance, I thought he was a simple boy, but that wasn’t the case at all.

‘If I do it wrong, I’ll get tired.’

From superior-subordinate relationships to work collaboration.

There were many things that needed to be resolved in the future.

‘Should I bend over? Or…’

That was when a worry crossed Hans’ mind as the reaction was stronger than expected.

“We both have the sa ultimate goal, so there is no need to conflict.”

“…Keuhum!”

“I will acknowledge your territory, deacon. So please respect my territory.”

If Lawrence had been weak at all, he would have tried hard to catch him.

But not now.

‘okay. There’s no need to rush.’

The profession that has to find a strategy optimized for the tastes of a picky archduke is a strategist.

There was no way it was easy.

How long could a guy who looks like he wasn’t even an adult endure this?

It was obvious that I would cry and quit my job after a few days.

Ti was on his side anyway.

Hans concluded clearly.

“haha. I think my curiosity got the better of because I suddenly had a colleague. Now that I think about it, I guess I was too rude. “I’m sorry if you were offended.”

“Then, let’s talk about our work. “If we exchange information, we will be able to serve the Archduke better.”

“yes.”

Lawrence took out a docunt.

“This is what happened in the city while Hans was away.”

Hans, who was looking at the docunts, widened his eyes.

“Are Baron Helmut and his two sons in the dungeon now?”

“yes. “It seems like the Grand Duke is planning on beheading these three.”

What if he had continued to follow Helmut?

A chill ran down Hans’ spine. If that were the case, his ending wouldn’t have been much different from this.

I was very fortunate to have successfully changed lines. Imdiately his gaze turned to the underline.

“The Eight Gates of Darkness have been destroyed? And that in just one day…”

“Yes.”

The docunt detailed the process of eliminating the Eight Gates of Darkness.

‘The author orchestrated this?’

That terrible organization was completely destroyed in just one day.

The strategy used in the process was nothing short of cruel.

‘Of course, they are trash enough to deserve to die like this…’

Even taking that into account, they certainly seed to have no hesitation.

gulp.

Hans swallowed his saliva without realizing it.

‘I thought you were a pretty gentleman.’

He was a man so cruel that even a decent hitman would shake his head.

Hans realized at this mont.

That ti is not on one’s side, but on the side of that man nad Lawrence.

It seed like we would probably be working together for a very long ti.

In addition to the destruction of the Eight Gates of Darkness, there were quite a few things going on, from tax reform to personnel changes.

Hans, who was looking at them carefully, put down the docunts.

“…I enjoyed it.”

“How do you plan to move from now on, Deacon?”

“Right now, I think we need to build trust with the Count by handing him so information.”

“What next?”

“I plan to add oil to the youngest prince and the count so that their relationship can beco a little stronger. That way, you will be able to receive many benefits.”

“And?”

“yes?”

“Is that all?”

“Eh…”

Hans was speechless.

Not even a day has passed since I started living at the count’s house. What more do you want here?

“There is a saying that if you don’t have teeth, your gums will get sore. Simply dividing and provoking the two factions will not be enough to completely prevent the Count’s intervention. “Isn’t that a bit complacent?”

“….”

What on earth is going through that head that causes them to persecute themselves like this?

“…Then what should I do?”

Hans, who was inwardly distraught, imdiately asked back.

“First of all…”

Various instructions poured out of Lawrence’s mouth.

After five minutes had passed, Hans took out a pen and paper, and after twenty minutes, he was so busy writing down what was said that he couldn’t even reply.

“Did you write it all down?”

“Well… if you could say it again…”

“Sure.”

This ti it took about ten minutes.

Hans wrote down the contents and read the instructions.

All of them were reasonable suggestions.

Moreover, since he was giving instructions as a manager, it could hardly be called interference with work.

Anyway, one thing is certain.

The truth was that he was completely overwheld in the first fight.

Although the relationship seed equal on the outside, in the end, I ended up following her instructions without even uttering a single word.

“Then let ask you a favor.”

“…yes. “I’ll go out first.”

Hans left the conference room.

Sylvia stared at the door.

‘Hansra.’

That type of person was the kind of person who could turn their back on soone at any ti if greater benefits were given to them.

‘There’s no way the Grand Duke wouldn’t know that.’

Nevertheless, having him by your side ans that he is that useful.

I didn’t really like it, but there was no need to sharpen it.

The most important thing for her was for the Archduke who gave her the opportunity to fly high in the sky.

‘If they betray you…’

Just go ahead and deal with it cleanly and that’s it.

She left the conference room.

* * *

Baron’s introspection.

Jaylon, who visited the place, had a stiff expression on his face.

I looked at the letter in my hand.

It was a letter from his father, the Marquis Bloten.

‘also.’

Delprion, the current king, had no intention of siding with the dukedom.

This is a fact that can be seen just by looking at the response that it is ‘housework’ and that people should take care of it themselves. It was not very good news for the archduke.

He knocked on the office door.

“co in.”

Now, seeing Ethan in the Baron’s office didn’t feel strange at all.

Because it gave off the right atmosphere, as if this was the place he was looking for.

‘As expected, the Archduke…’

was a born ruler.

This is sothing that can be easily inferred just by thinking of oneself working diligently under him right now.

Jayron, who was looking at Ethan like that, tilted his head.

This is because a small young man was standing behind him.

“Who is this?”

“My counselor.”

“A bookmaker? “Is your na…”

“It’s Lawrence.”

Does the young man in front of know his identity?

After contemplating for a mont how to introduce himself, he began speaking.

“Nice to et you, Lawrence. “My na is Michelan and I am the owner of the Misas rchant Marine.”

At those words, Lawrence bowed his head politely.

Her greeting contained the formality of a nobleman. Has the Archduke revealed his identity?

Jayron’s eyes turned to Ethan. He shook his head.

This ans that it was not disclosed.

Ethan, who was smiling as if having fun, nodded towards Jayron.

It just ant revealing one’s identity.

“…Let introduce it again. “This is Jayron Besos.”

“You were the head of the marquis’ small family.”

“That’s right. “But how did you find out my identity?”

“I could sense the formality of an aristocrat implicitly in Lord Soga’s attitude. Moreover, the Grand Duke is a person who values efficiency the most. “If Jayron was an ordinary rchant, I thought there would be no reason to et him in person like this.”

“…okay.”

“You can speak comfortably. “I am a commoner.”

“it’s okay. “This has beco a habit.”

I said this, but my true intentions were different.

‘Did you say Lawrence?’

He is a talent worthy of being kept by that prickly archduke.

Of course, it’s not sothing I’m talking about.

So it was better to just respect each other. In order to go with the Archduke in the future, it would be good to build up friendships with the people around him.

Soon after, Jayron handed Ethan a letter.

“My father delivered a letter. “It is said to be a letter sent directly from His Majesty.”

Ethan opened the letter and looked at its contents.

‘As expected.’

Delprion.

This beca clear with the reaction shown this ti. This guy probably doesn’t like the Duke family that much.

‘Perhaps he may have been involved in the affairs of collaterals to so extent.’

Collateral 10.

The connivance of the king of the ti may have played a role in the fact that these guys so openly defrauded the dukedom.

The story was that it was difficult to get along well with this guy.

Because Ethan was not a person who was tolerant of his enemies.

Even if it is the king of a country.

“A guy who can’t even write properly.”

“…yes?”

“Are you saying this was written by a guy called the King himself? But why is your handwriting so bad?”

“….”

It was actually bad handwriting.

Although it was the first ti in his life that the archduke in front of had said that out loud. Jayron said, shaking his head as if he had given up.

“It seems that Your Majesty has no intention of getting involved in this matter.”

“You probably can’t get involved. If that happens, we will have no choice but to punish the collateral.”

There were many people who still rembered the appearance of the Yongin tribe and the sacrifice of the duke family.

In such a situation, you wouldn’t want to give the impression that you’re going to overthrow the kingdom’s hero with your own hands.

That’s probably why they’re covering their eyes and screaming.

“Anyway, that’s good.”

Ethan said with a grin.

“Are you saying it went well?”

The king refused help, so is that a good thing?

Lawrence said after seeing Jayron tilting his head.

“The Archduke must have sent the letter because he knew the King would respond in this way.”

“that’s right. Thanks to that, this just beca ‘housework.’”

“Ah…”

Even the king of a country is not involved in this matter, saying it is a family matter.

It was said that even the seven kingdoms could not openly intervene in this matter. It also ant that a stage for excitent was prepared.

One way or another, in the end, shouldn’t household issues be resolved between the people involved in the household?

“Thank you.”

Ethan smiled.
