Pseudo-Villaines
Party And Secret Talk
Everything was only finished when the four leaders of the enemy group who attacked Hull's uncle's entourage had been killed. Two are killed by Jean and two are killed by a mercenary leader hired by Hull's uncle.
Five of the mercenaries were killed. Even so, their efforts were not in vain at all since all the attacking enemies had been killed.
It was impossible to bring the bodies of their five comrades. Therefore the mercenaries decided to bury them in the outskirts of the forest. As for the corpse of the enemy, they dragged him into the forest and let him just like that. Let them be food for the wild animals.
Uncle Hull decided to continue the delayed journey. Originally, he was targeting to arrive at Earl Baldric's territory when evening arrived. However due to this unexpected attack, they only arrived at Earl Baldric's territory when night fell.
Charlotte and Selena looked out the window of the carriage. The territory managed by Earl Baldric was a town slightly smaller than Saint Georgia City. The population is also not more.
To be honest, there is nothing conspicuous about this city. Nothing is actactive. At most only the knight troupe messed up in some places.
Once inside the castles, the mercenaries waited outside. Uncle Hull gave them extra money to have fun. That was a wise move. For the death of their friends, the mercenaries needed to console themselves.
"Look, the large building that was there was the residence belonging to the Baldric family."
Uncle Hull pointed at a plain white-colored building. It was the mansion where the nobles lived. It was larger in size than the noble residence in Saint Georgia City.
The horse-drawn carriage they were riding entered the courtyard of the Baldric family mansion. As soon as they descended, the knights were already lined up to greet them. They stood on the right and left sides, lined up from the door to where Uncle Hull and the others had descended from his chariot.
In fact, instead of welcoming, Jean could say that this was bullying. All the knights who greeted them wore full armor armor with swords raised high. Jean and the others walked under the glint of swords belonging to the knights.
Jean could see Selena and Charlotte being a little intimidated. That's a normal thing. Even an adult could be intimidated if they walked under a sword like this.
Seeing her two women terrified, Jean was eager to release her pressure as well. But considering Hull's uncle's reputation, Jean undoes his intentions. He held and held both hands. He also smiled warmly at them. Fortunately, Selena and Charlotte became calmer.
The four of them entered the middle room of the Baldric family mansion. While Uncle Hull is escorted to where the adults are gathered, Charlotte, Jean, and Selena are taken to where the children are their age.
Tumultuous. The atmosphere in this place is really crowded! The party attendees who came were far more than the party held at the Lostov family home. Jean was even able to see the prince as well as the next heir to the throne, Hans C Dublin. It looks like the clothes he was wearing.
There was also the son of the only Duke in the kingdom of Dublin, Cassilas. The boy's name is Greg Cassilas.
But Jean didn't take care of that. Her job is to ensure the safety of Charlotte and Selena.
The servants belonging to the Baldric family paced back and forth while holding trays carrying glasses of wine and other drinks to be given to guests.
Charlotte and Selena were visited several times by noble sons and some rich merchant children to be invited to party with them. But Charlotte elegantly refused their invitation. If one of them tried to force her, Jean immediately released her pressure on that person.
Thankfully, the rescuer came. A purple haired girl who is graceful and beautiful yet quite tomboyish, Natasha. He pulled all the sons of nobles and rich merchants from Selena's presence and grabbed her hand. He turned to Jean and blinked one eye. Jean won't smile. This brat......
"Natasha! You also came! Come with us!"
Charlotte grabs Natasha's hand and pulls it. Ah, it was nice to see that her three women could be familiar like this. Jean shook her head while smiling faintly. After that, he became a bodyguard for three girls at once.

While the children were boisterous, their father was gathered in a room. The light of the candle illuminates them. But it is dim enough that the effect remains dark.
They all sat around a round table. All the people who were here were people who had a strong influence in the kingdom of Dublin.
There were Duke Cassilas, Earl Baldric, Viscount Lostov, and other nobles. Surely there are rich merchants who are also visible. One of them is Hull.
"Thank you for attending my invitation, ladies and gentlemen. Now, let's toast to our kingdom, the kingdom of Dublin."
Everyone raised their glasses and toasted. At first the conversation went everywhere. Whether it is about business, political affairs, and others.
But it all ended when Earl Baldric cleared his throat. Everyone's attention was distracted by him. Hull who was chatting with the Baron who was his customer also turned his attention to Earl Baldric.
But the one who spoke this time was not Earl Baldric, but Duke Cassilas. He nodded at Earl Baldric and stood up.
"Gentlemen, thank you for taking the time to come to this feast. I brought a message from the king for all of you."
Duke Cassilas was silent for a moment. He watched the response from the audience and continued.
"Our king, who began Dublin III Intended to conquer the kingdom around him. We need to expand our territory and get noticed by the great empires and empires!"
The nobles and wealthy merchants fell silent for a moment. But a moment later, they clapped loudly and laughed loudly. They were very pleased with the king's decision!
But Hull is a little different. He doesn't mind war. But this is a very risky bet. He was not happy with this decision but he himself was not in a position to reject the edict of a king.
'After all. Hahhh, this is more troublesome than I imagined.'
