Chapter 33

"This dish was quite a surprise, I am sure if it makes its way towards the Imperial capital it will create quite a sensation that it made at the mansion today, what do you think Steve?" Marchioness asked Marquis and gave her opinion .

"That’s true, it is quite a novel cuisine, I think this dish would make a very good impression in front of his Majesty Lionheart and other cadres at the palace, maybe we can introduce it at the yearly ceremony this year in Imperial Capital . What do you think Aine?", Marquis thought a bit and gave his opinion after being asked by Marchioness .

"Well that’s okay with me, John do you have an opinion since it was your creation?", Aine thought about it and asked John since it was John who created this dish .

"Okay, that won’t be a problem . " It didn’t take John much thought as he agreed to Aine’s proposal immediately .

"John previously I heard from Eva that you had a duel with Son of Baron Mendez, Antonio Mendez and you defeated him? Where and from whom did you train previously because as far as I know Antonio is quite a capable and high-grade knight who is able to fight Wild and Magic beasts on his own footing?" Mrs . Aine asked John in a very curious and interested tone .

"Most of the time I actually trained by myself . But whenever I trained I always simulate my enemies so that it improves my efficiency and practicality . " John answered her in a roundabout way, not agreeing while not disagreeing as well .

"Joseph you can transport all the slaves with your fleet this time and in the future as well . If you have any problems, state it earlier, Ok?" Marquis Ray said to Joseph .

Joseph expected the transportation Job to be given to him so he immediately accepted the transportation job, "There won’t be any problems, we were prepared for a quite a long time already so it was expected that we would transport the slaves, however I would like it if we can get more ships and men on our fleet then it would help us improve the protection our trade route . "

"That won’t be a problem, I have already informed my Knight order and our Slave dealers . You can go to the dock and get 1 big ship, 3 other normal ships for your operations . Frank give him the documents . " Marquis replied to Joseph and signaled Frank to give him the prepared documents so that all the formalities can be done .

This way, the deal was stuck between all the parties and John’s party took the leave after dealing with all the matters with Frank and Marquis Ray .

After leaving the house of Marquis, they first decided to rest and then later they decided to visit the Slave trader at the center of the city .

Meanwhile, Phillip took John and everyone present to the Mansion while others were gossiping on their experience today at Marquis’s Mansion . Especially Josephine was very fascinated with the Weapons and Arts seen in the Mansion today .

At the same time, one of Vlad’s men from the mansion informed about the dealings which took place to Vlad . He also got to know that John had previously beaten Antonio earlier . Previously this info would have been insignificant but after their previous contact, they increased their information collection on John so that it suits their needs in future ventures so that they understand what to avoid and favor in certain circumstances whether in business matters or political matters .

In the Castle at the outskirts of Pearl City,

"It is as I thought, he is an all round fighter and previously he defeated Antonio Mendez in a Duel at East sea city . Because of this incident, John came to Pearl town so he can take help from Morgan family and Marquis Ray so that he can buy the North-frontier town which Baron Mendez was previously going to abandon . Additionally, it can be seen that John is very attached to the town, after watching how he is willing to spend his own resources and money to defend the people and town, he looks like a reliable partner . From the details, it looks like the duel took place because Antonio was interested in Miss Eva of John’s team and he wanted to teach him a lesson so that he could woo her . However, his main motive is Grand Potioneer Melanie who is Miss Eva’s Great Grand Mother . However, the thing is, not many people know Miss Eva’s real identity as her Grandma usually hides it very thoroughly . " Vlad summarized the report he got from one of his men to Diana, while she was looking at the paintings she got recently from noblemen of Aelius .

"Interesting, So he is already at par with high-grade knights in swords, huh, and speaking of which he is also teamed up with Eva, tell me everything you missed out," Diana spoke while looking at one of the paintings and thinking about the information she got from Vlad .

"Speaking of Miss Eva, John is also the only disciple of Miss Melanie and that is how he got acquainted with Eva and it also seems that Miss Eva has some feelings towards him which even she might be unaware of . From the rumors of North-Frontier town, John is a very capable person who has a very fast grasp towards knowledge and practical techniques he comes in contact with . Speaking of good news, John indeed is very capable of making a variety of cuisines but he doesn’t like to make it on his own so we can look forward to our meeting next time at North-Frontier town . But you need not worry as we have acquired some of the recipes he provided at the mansion . However, the most peculiar thing about John is; we couldn’t locate any of his origins even after sending his pictures and information to all our intelligence personnel via one of our transfer magic . It seemed like he came out of nowhere and was not born on this continent but from his looks and accent, he looks like a local, he might be an orphan who was neglected and hence not noticed as well however this cant be confirmed . " Vlad finished his whole report .

"Hmm . . . there are a lot of unknowns around him, well it doesn’t matter, from how he is willing to protect that town he doesn’t seem to be an ungrateful person, how do you think we should help him protect North-Frontier town?" Diana replied and asked a question to Vlad .

"That’s true as well, however, we shouldn’t actually expose the cover of our men so easily . How about this, we let them protect that town on their own first and if the need arises we can help them from shadows . Plus from what I know Antonio is planning to take his revenge when they will be engaged with resisting Magic beasts for the humiliation he got from John earlier and asked for some assassins from Prince Hector but he hasn’t gotten his reply yet" Vlad replied to Diana .

"Okay we will do it this way, plus keep an eye on the assassins Prince Hector sends to kill John, because I am sure that noble named Bard will inform Prince Hector about the previous incident . " Diana gave her order and ringed a bell so that her maid Maurice could bring in another guest who was waiting in the mansion .

Meanwhile at John’s end,

After reaching the mansion, they rested for a while, later everyone headed towards the Slave market so that they could have a better look and make use of the token for buying better slaves for production purposes . And they also wanted to take a look at all the slaves they brought recently and tell them his conditions so don’t resist when they are transported via sea to North-Frontier town on their next journey . John had already told to Joseph that all the slaves must be treated with respect so that he can have Loyal men later on which he could rely on . John was most interested in that family of 5 and the dwarf named Tornwall . It was because both of parties seemed to have a story, that was why John was more interested in them and hoped to make them his loyal men later on . One of the reasons was that he knew that he can’t handle every single thing on his own and he would need loyal men who would support him later on .
