I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 25

#When I returned, the family was ruined (25)

This is a sudden topic.

It was also a question that was difficult to answer hastily.

‘How much do you know?’

The 10 collateral families clearly tried to make Myers do that.

There is no need to elevate a perfectly fine person to the position of head of the family.

The architect of the plan was Baron Helmut. Chaiman readily agreed to what the Baron, a member of his own faction, said.

If the craftsman knows this, he will be in trouble. There was no way he would entrust himself to someone who tried to make him a bad person.

‘The worst situation is…’

is to leave for Count Irdan, who is dividing his faction.

If that happened, his faction would be completely without a worthy successor.

First of all, it was right to get out of the way.

“What on earth do you mean….”

“Don’t pretend not to know. Didn’t the Count know this too? “I already heard everything from Hans.”

Did you know?

Myers’ words were a little strange.

Cheyman asked immediately.

“What on earth did you hear that makes you say that?”

“Whew. “The designer of this plan is Baron Helmut, right?”

“…you’re right.”

“I heard that that bastard allowed it.”

Irdan, head of the Earl of Amelton.

He is the leader of the opposing faction.

‘Why is Irdan coming out?’

That was when a question crossed my mind.

Hans joined the conversation between the two like lightning.

“you’re right. Helmut That guy belongs to Count Irdan’s faction. That’s why I hurriedly evacuated the youngest master to Count Chayman.”

Chayman’s eyes sparkled.

He is also a seasoned nobleman who has gone through many hardships.

It wasn’t difficult to realize the situation.

‘That guy lied in the middle of it.’

The situation wasn’t bad.

No, it’s actually better.

As long as he knows that, Myers will never leave for Count Irdan. It was possible to tightly hold on to the successor with the right to succession to one’s own faction.

“…I’m sorry for not being able to protect you.”

“Whew. To be honest, I don’t think the Count would have voted against it either. “I know that you were just watching.”

“….”

“Still, I’m not as scandalous as that guy. “You look like someone who will tear you to death!”

Myers, who was huffing and puffing with anger, looked at the Count.

“Haa… Count Chayman.”

“yes.”

“The Count didn’t come up with the plan himself, so let’s forget about this incident. But it is true that I am disappointed. “In the end, the Count was just a bystander.”

“…sorry.”

Unlike Cheyman, who bowed his head and apologized in a serious tone, he was smiling inside.

‘We need to make sure they are strictly controlled.’

In any case, Baron Helmut, the planner of the plan, had been swept away by the Archduke a long time ago.

The story goes that cutting off the tail has become much easier.

‘Hold the youngest Confucius here.’

The secret could be kept if the nobles belonging to the faction were strictly prohibited from joining. Chayman and Hans secretly made eye contact.

Nod.

If you pretend, you pretend.

We had the same thoughts.

‘I guess I’ll have to kiss that guy first.’

I felt like I needed to find out what this guy named Hans wanted.

* * *

Midnight.

A knock rang in Chayman’s office.

“Come in.”

“Did you call me, Count?”

“Sit down.”

asked the Count, who had given his seat to Hans.

“Why did you help me?”

“I am the chamberlain of the hunting annex in the Barony of Kargath. If I go to Count Irdan, will I be welcomed? “It would be nice if we weren’t treated like spies.”

“So you came to me, who was of the same faction as the Baron?”

“yes. I will be loyal. “I hope you will use me with great care.”

Chaiman, seeing his eyes burning with ambition, nodded.

“okay. Let me write it carefully. By the way, you were the chief chamberlain of the hunting annex?”

“yes.”

“Isn’t that where the Archduke was?”

“you’re right.”

“Do you know what kind of person he is?”

“I couldn’t figure it out for sure because we didn’t spend much time together. But one thing is certain. “It means that they are gnashing their teeth at their affiliates.”

“Hmm… I guess that’s worth it.”

Before he collapsed, he had been living in the Duke’s inner quarters and was kicked out to a shabby annex, so it was worth gnashing his teeth.

“Is there room for compromise?”

“I don’t think so.”

“…Right.”

He thought of Baron Kargath. It was the smallest of his factions.

We should be wary of the fact that the Archduke is growing, but we should not feel fear.

‘If I just send two of the family’s skilled knights…’

I could have destroyed the baronage in the same way. Count Pernes’ family had over twenty knights with that level of skill. What made the Archduke fearful was his immunity, not the fact that he had overthrown the Baron.

“Do you have any idea where the Archduke’s next blade will head?”

“I think my next target will probably be Baron Romenton.”

“Baron Lomenton?”

Baron Romenton is a family belonging to the opposing faction.

Cheyman smiled happily.

“The reason is?”

“First of all, it is not only the family closest to the Barony of Kargath, but it also seemed to have sent a letter to the Archduke from there.”

“Correspondence?”

“yes. The Grand Duke, who was reading the contents, blushed and tore up the letter. I wonder if he wrote something insulting…”

“Hmm.”

It would be perfect if the Archduke directed it to Baron Romenton.

‘There’s Viscount Itun next to him.’

Next to it is the County of Amelton, ruled by Irdan.

They were all forces of opposing factions.

What if the archduke and the opposing faction fight against each other and destroy themselves!

If you did well, you could blow your nose without even touching it.

Just imagining it made me feel thrilled.

You will be able to grow bigger by absorbing all the sweet honey coming from the vast duchy.

“That Count.”

“Why but?”

“I have a question. Can I ask you something?”

“Something?”

“Is Baron Kargath safe?”

“Hmm. There’s been a rumor going around lately. “It looks like the barony has been taken over by the archduke.”

“…Is that true?”

“It’s almost certain.”

“If the Barony had fallen, the news would have stopped.”

The Count nodded.

“There are relationships I made while I was in the Barony. “They are knights and officials, and some of them will probably remain in the inner city.”

“Hoo. is it?”

“I think it is necessary to check as the Archduke’s spirit is unusual. “If you send me, I will gather as much information as possible.”

In order to monitor the Archduke’s every move confined within the inner castle, it was natural to deploy personnel into the inner castle.

It means you have to invest a lot of time and effort.

‘If I send this guy instead…’

I didn’t know that I could get the information easier than I thought.

Since he lost several of his teeth after being beaten by that bastard, he must have a lot of resentment.

“Take it.”

“Is this… a contact crystal sphere?”

“okay. “If you bring me the mana stone, you will be able to contact me directly.”

Although it was a yawning communication crystal ball, it was no problem for conveying some news.

Hans lowered his head in sorrow.

“I will definitely ask for useful information.”

“I guess I’ll just trust you.”

“yes. “If I suddenly disappear, the youngest Confucius might be surprised, so can we leave tomorrow?”

“So be it.”

That’s how the night’s conversation ended.

The next morning.

Hans went to see Myers and whispered quietly.

“It was successful.”

“really?”

“yes. “I think I can visit the Barony sometime.”

“okay. “Be sure to tell your brother my news.”

“All right. Oh. The youngest Confucius must show that he is practicing to the best of his ability. “That way, the Count will also have thoughts of raising Confucius.”

“okay. I’ll just sign up for a closed training course and swing my sword in a quiet place. “Then it will be okay, right?”

“yes. “I will contact you as soon as I return.”

“Bye.”

“yes.”

‘Once I gained the count’s basic trust.’

We have only just crossed the first hurdle.

Letting one’s guard down was an absolute no-no.

If even the slightest gap were revealed, the Count’s teeth might tear it apart.

‘I’m sweating.’

Still, if this plan was successful, he would definitely not forget himself when the Grand Duke became the head of the family.

As such, he was a person with clear rewards and punishments.

The carriage in which Hans rode left the county.

Three days passed.

Meanwhile, Frexian was solidly laying the foundation for internal affairs, and Sylvia demonstrated her value by successfully handling the mission entrusted to her by Ethan.

“hello.”

She saw a knight wandering around the inner palace and quietly greeted him.

“Uh…uhh. You are Detective Lawrence. good morning.”

The article’s tone was full of fear.

Lawrence.

This was because I was in charge of subjugating the Eight Gates of Darkness with him and saw all sorts of things.

‘He’s definitely an excellent tactician…’

At first, the knights looked upon the young tactician with disdain, but as the plan progressed, they began to express their exclamations one by one.

In the end, all eight dark gates were defeated in just one day.

However, the cruelty of the schemer revealed during the subjugation process was beyond imagination.

For example, when the executives of the first two of the eight dark gates were captured.

Since he entered the room and since he came out, as many as seven bodies have had to be removed.

‘Thanks to that, I knew the secret passages used by the rest of the group…’

In addition, in order to completely destroy the group, they committed cruel acts such as burning down the building so that no one could escape alive, or causing even the simplest gangsters to die. He showed the inside of his hand.

That scene was enough to make even knights who had gone through many hardships hold their tongues.

I still haven’t forgotten the answer I received when I asked why on earth he was doing this.

“The Grand Duke himself told me to dispose of it very neatly so that it would never be seen again.”

Lawrence.

That was when a faint smile appeared on his expressionless, doll-like face.

‘…They said that all the captured executives were taken to the third floor of the dungeon.’

In the process, it was an added bonus that Lawrence was known to hear screams of pain every night he entered prison.

Every time I ask what on earth happened, I only get an incomprehensible answer that says they are persuading me.

‘It is true that he is capable, but…’

There is something about this person that makes me reluctant to work with him.

That was Lawrence.

Lawrence passed the trembling knight and knocked on the office.

“come in.”

“Good morning, Grand Duke.”

“It’s been three days since you became a detective. Does the job suit you aptitude?”

“I think it’s a good fit.”

“Then I’m glad.”

I heard stories from the knights who moved together after the subjugation of the Eight Gates of Darkness.

Sylvia.

The strategy she was unfolding was one hundred and eighty different from before.

Previously, the approach was to minimize sacrifices as much as possible, but now the approach is to use a method that allows for as long as the goal is achieved no matter how much sacrifice is made.

It was quite a change from the past.

“Your Majesty.”

“why?”

“I think an intelligence group will be created soon.”

“Do you think it’s worth using?”

“yes. “There is one information guild among the 8 dark gates, and I think we can make good use of it if we form an executive team with them at the head.”

While I was having a conversation with Sylvia, a knight knocked on the door of the office.

“Your Majesty, a man named Hans wants to meet you, Grand Duke. What should we do?”

“send.”

It was a faster movement than expected.

Now it was time to hear what kind of results this guy brought.
