Chapter 167

***

The next Day at North-frontier town,

Georgio read the newspaper as he had made the habit of reading it every day after coming to this town as it was more easy to get information from the newspaper than roaming the administrative Headquarters all day long, "Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah! Is this for real? I need to inform Prince Immediately about this . I always thought that Prince was the craziest of them all . I guess I was wrong . This count is even more crazy than Lord Lukavv . This will be our chance . "

Everyone in the upper political circles was in shock as they read the newspapers of the North-frontier domain .

One of the commoners read the daily paper and exclaimed with surprise, "What is this? Why is the king targeting us even after Lord had shown his loyalty by immediately offering him those our most advanced weapons? It seems the Royal family has a lot of blood on their hands, look at this incident where Professor William's whole family was slaughtered because he exposed a scandal . "

Another guy spoke in anger, "True, other lords would have delayed the delivery of ballistas and racked up the price if they had it . After such a long time we had such a good harvest and these guys want to ruin it all . Fuck this scummy king . "

The Old man smiled as he spoke, "It seems a lot of things are moving, I guess this is how Lord John is targeting the Royal family by exposing them for what they are . However there is one good thing, that alcohol would not be hoarded by those traders . I wonder how these Expose would fare to those ministers sitting in the imperial city . Just Look, there are a lot of scandals that are exposed today, these include Prince Hector and other ministers in the Imperial City . I expect there would be a riot in the Imperial city as they know about it . "

Another Merchant spoke, "However it is still dangerous in the eastern seas, there are non-stop small skirmishes going on in the eastern front . However, it looks like we are still in the upper hand at least for now . Just Yesterday Captain Blake was able to seize 3 ships of Duke Fjord who were patrolling . Captain Blake is quite good at capturing these ships . "

Everyone smiled as they heard it .

Another Wholesales dealing in other raw materials spoke, "Yes, this time I have decided to transfer my goods with Lord John's trading Fleet . Though the prices are high, it is safer to trade via their fleets instead of individual fleets . "

The other merchants agreed and spoke, "Yes, I think I too will do it this time around . "

In another part of the town .

One of the angry commoners blasted as he read the headlines, "It seems the Imperial city is full of scum, just look at the way they have treated our Lord . Hmph, it looks like they are asking for a rebellion from our Lord . Who the heck do they think they are . "

Luke read the newspaper and had a face as if he could kill anyone at the moment, "Is that count serious or gone crazy? Why is he starting to ignite the debate on Professor William from now on? It seems he has finally started to target the alcohol business which he had suppressed previously . This is really serious . I need to immediately report this news to the imperial capital . "

One of the subordinates spoke, "Lord there are angry people outside our embassy . They are being held by the city guards . We have to leave via the backdoor . "

Luke furrowed his brows and spoke, "What happened?"

The subordinate held his breath and spoke, "It seems they have read the newspaper and are quite angry with the previous verdict . "

Luke spoke with a grave tone, "I guess I can now understand why the Radiant Church wanted to get their hands on the printing press . We need to place our importance on them as well . "

Simon too read the paper and had a very serious expression on his face, He thought, 'Is he challenging the whole kingdom just because he can rule the seas or is there something else in play?'

Pallet smiled as he read a piece on Prince Hector and spoke to Simon, "Hooh, I never knew about this incident of Lord Hector, damn this is too funny . Looking at your expression I guess you already knew about it . Tell me, how many times have you covered up lord's ass? Nah, it's okay, these guys will reveal a piece on Prince Hector every day . This seems a lot more exciting than all the other news . "

Simon ignored Pallet as he thought about the current circumstances .

One of the Teen slaves read the paper and was quite cheerful after reading it as it was something related to them, "Wow, we will all be freed of our servitude after 2 years . This is groundbreaking news . I need to inform all of my mates about this development .

One of the other slaves who was traveling with him asked as he didn't understand the significance of this announcement, "Why are you so happy? Weren't we going to be freed anyway?"

The teen knocked his head and explained to him the ramifications of such an announcement, "You idiot, Though we were promised to be freed, this public promise would mean a lot more to all of us, slaves . Don't you understand that Lord has publically given his promise to free us all? He won't back down from his promise after this announcement . "

He scratched his head and understood, He muttered, "Ohh, Well I always believed he would free us anyway . "

One of the Teens spoke after reading the paper, "I am immediately going to join the army . After such a long time we got improved living conditions and those greedy scum want to destroy it for their interests . Hmph . . . So what if he is the king, I will cut him down If I see him right here . After such a long time our family is able to save something and these guys come in . Since Lord decided to invest in us, I too would invest in my Lord as a subject and join the army as we are low on numbers . I am sure with those weapons and enough men, we can protect our borders from those invaders . Heck, he isn't even forcing anyone to join it . "

The other group of teens agreed as well, "Yes, it seems you are right, Our Lord is quite generous and this is one of the reasons why those big guys in capital think that we are pushovers . Since you are joining the army, We too are going to apply first thing today . Come lets go . "

Hearing this Luke was quite surprised as he was going to give the letter to his spy .

The subordinate wanted to roar to those brats after hearing such impudent words from them but he was immediately dragged away by Luke .

Luke spoke in a grave tone, "Do you want both of us killed, right here right now? Even though there are a lot of guards protecting us . Do you think they would protect us if you insult their lord? They would simply ignore defending us and claim it as negligence to have us beaten up or killed . Remember we are only acting as interlocutors and diplomats over here . Don't get emotionally involved . "

He thought, 'Damn it the situation is quite dangerous . This type of anger is only seen in countries where there has been a continuous war for at least 50 to 100 years . It's good that the Radiant Church didn't have their hands on such a tool . On top of it, these guys are exposing the scandals of the royal family left and right . I need to meet Count John or Taylor immediately . '

Taylor was quite shocked after watching the effect of newspapers, "It seems lord was quite right when he said we would get a lot of soldiers ready to fight us tomorrow . With this, we can be prepared for our war . "

One of his subordinates gave him the report, "Lord, Ambassador Luke wants to meet you . It seems he is in a hurry and wants to meet upper management . "

Taylor smiled and nodded, "It seems he is quite impatient after reading Today's surprise . Okay, I will meet him . Bring him in . "

Luke came in and threw the newspaper as he roared as soon as the door closed, "What is the meaning of this? Lord Taylor? I want an Explanation . "

Taylor smiled as he expected this scenario before Luke even came in .
