508 Banquet for nobles (8) This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

This time, it was Viscount Henry and his followers that were surprised.

They didn't know what I had been planning to do, but they never expected to hear something like compensation.

I looked over at Shaka who came over with a scroll.

I took it and opened it in front of everyone to read it, "Though not everything has been investigated, the current situation has determined that the nobles led by Viscount Teomold have cooperated with the Adventurer Guild to rob other nobles. As such, they will receive compensation from these nobles."

The guests that hadn't been caught up in this were surprised to hear this, but they were more confused as to what the scroll I was reading from was.

The way that I was reading this, it was almost as if I was reading some kind of message.

But I ignored them and continued, "The compensation will be given in either money or land depending on what is available. If the items stolen can be recovered, they will be returned to their original owners. If they cannot be recovered, the value of these items will be added to the compensation amount."

Then once I finished reading this, I turned the scroll so everyone could see it.

The moment that they did, they all let out a gasp.

That was because they recognized the seal that was on this scroll.

It was the seal of the royal family.

No one could believe that the seal of the royal family was being used in this situation, but there it was in front of them.

There were a few of them that wondered if this seal was faked, but they quickly threw away those thoughts since they knew that this was impossible.

A fake royal seal...that was a crime worse than anything that Viscount Teomold and his followers had done.

They didn't believe that Count Zwein would try anything that crazy.

So this seal was most likely real...

They knew he had a connection with the royals since he had stated that he was trading with the royals.

So of course he couldn't accept this.

Even if he died, he at least wanted to leave behind some descendants of his family which had been a great noble family that had lasted many generations.

Now, even that didn't seem possible.

Taking a deep breath, he looked at me and said, "Please leave a path of life for my family. That is all that I can ask of you."

I shook my head and simply said, "No."

Viscount Teomold's face twisted as he said, "Why? Why would you do all of this?"

I narrowed my eyes to look at him before saying, "Ask yourself that in your next life. You should really think about all the things that you've done in this life."

Viscount Teomold revealed a confused look, as if he didn't even know what he had done wrong.

But that wasn't his fault since this was the behaviour that many nobles had in this world.

It could be said that it was just his bad luck to run into Count Zwein.

Seeing that he didn't understand, I nodded at the two guards by his side to take him away.

I also nodded at the other guards restraining the nobles to take those other nobles away as well.

Since they had already received their punishment, they were no longer needed.

Instead, it was time for me to move onto the next part of my plan.

Though the main part of the plan was to condemn Viscount Teomold and these nobles, there was follow up that was needed for this matter.

I couldn't just leave things as they were.

I did like nothing today because I was watching AGDQ.
