I couldn't help turning to look at Rose and I saw that she was giving me a certain look.
It was as if she was telling me to accept this…This chapter made its debut appearance via n(o)vel(b)(i)(n).
But I couldn't just accept them since they were men of the marquis and there was an element of danger to them..
So I turned to Haley.
If Rose didn't work, then I would try Haley.
After all, if there wasn't enough money to hire them, then there was no way that we would be able to keep them.
However…it was the same with her.
lightsnοvεl She also looked at me like she wanted me to accept them. She even gave a thumbs up to show that it wouldn't be a problem at all when it came to money.
These two, they really were something else.
Since they already agreed and I couldn't just deny the fourth prince, I gave up on thinking too much about it and said, "Alright, they can join my knight order."
The fourth prince revealed a satisfied smile and gave a nod of agreement before turning to the marquis' subordinates to say, "Well, you heard him. Go back and bring your families, as well as the rest of the marquis' men. You're all a part of the knight order under my brother now."
The subordinates all revealed shocked looks when they heard this.
It wasn't because of what he said that they were shocked, but because of what the fourth prince had said in the end.
He had called Count Zwein 'brother'.
They just never would have imagined that the fourth prince would call someone 'brother'.
It was very clear that the relationship between them wasn't normal…
Since the fourth prince had already said all of this, I looked at Jessica and said, "Take care of this."
She looked at me with a bitter smile before giving a nod.
Jessica was the one that had been appointed as the leader of this knight order.
One might think that it would be Cecilia, but she turned it down since she wanted to stay closer to me. So Cecilia was still the captain of the guards in our town instead of becoming the prestigious leader of this knight order.
She took Jessica under her wings and was now teaching her how to become a proper knight order leader.
Jessica came over to the one that had spoken for the subordinates and said, "From now on, you are all a part of our Rose Knights. I hope that you will not disappoint me and make my lord and his highness regret giving you a second choice."
The subordinates looked at her with dazed looks before suddenly revealing firm and determined looks.
It was slowly sinking in that from now on, they would be members of a knight order.
This was a status that was far above their status from before.
After a long silence, the representative of these subordinates gave a nod and said in a strong voice, "We will not let you down."
Jessica gave a casual nod before saying, "Alright, follow me. Let's get everything set up."
The fourth prince gave a nod to the cloaked figures who hesitated for a moment before four of them followed behind Jessica.
It was as if they were going along to make sure that the subordinates of the marquis behaved properly.
After that was taken care of, I said to the fourth prince, "Should we head back and finish discussing what we were talking about?"
The fourth prince gave a simple nod before we headed back into the town hall.
As we did, I could see the awkward look that was on Rose's face.
That was because of the name I had given the knight order.
The Order of the Rose Knights, that was the official name of the knight order that we had established.
Rose had wanted to go against this name, but I had made sure to keep this name since I wanted Rose's name on this. In a way, it was my way of doing a big gesture to show my love.
Though it was clear that Rose didn't seem like she liked it that much.
It was clear that she found this embarrassing.
But unfortunately for her, I found it cute, so I didn't change the name and insisted on it.
When we came back into the room, the fourth prince was the first to speak.
"We were talking about other ways of getting the supplies that we needed. What other ways were you thinking of?"
It seemed that the fourth prince was more anxious to talk about this than I was.
However, there was someone that we needed to call before we could discuss this.
I had Nicole take care of this and it didn't take long before the person that we called arrived.
When Elsa came in, she asked in a confused voice, "What did you need me for?"
I just gestured for her to sit down before explaining the situation to her.
When I finished, Elsa still had a confused look on her face, though there was a look of worry in her eyes as she asked, "It doesn't seem like there's anything I can do about this matter. So is there a reason why you called me here?"
She was right, on the surface it didn't seem like there was anything that she could do, but…there was something that I needed from the Dwarven Kingdom regarding this and she was the best person to ask as the Dwarven Kingdom's ambassador.
"Do you have trades with these kingdoms that are declaring war on our kingdom?"
Else knitted her brows when she heard this as she looked at me with a careful look.
Slowly, she said, "There are no official trades, but there are unofficial trades."
She didn't deny this since it was an open secret.
After all, it was impossible for the country to govern everything that citizens did and if they wanted to do some small trading, then the country couldn't stop them.
But why would he ask her this?
I gave a nod before saying, "Is it possible for us to buy weapons from the dwarven kingdom in the same manner?"
