My Wife Waited in the Wheat Fields

#10 Banquet (9)

After a few more days, the schedule of the capital was finished.

It was a journey where I thought that if I attended just one more banquet, I would be really exhausted.

Isn’t there a fight with Young-shik, who has no one to know, and isn’t an assassin sent for hitting the young-shik?

After cleaning it up, it was a coincidence that all the laughs came out.

but that’s the end too.

It was now time to return to Yubin’s mansion.

Elric said to Tyria, who was ready to leave with a much more comfortable mind.

“It must have been an eventful outing.”

“It is indeed so.”

The expression of Tyria, who nodded slightly, was bright for some reason.

It was a proud thing for Elric.

‘As a result, Elbus’ meddling was helpful.’

After he claimed to be Portman’s ally, Tyria was surrounded by nobles from other kingdoms.

Although it was a close relationship for profit, their goodwill could not work against Portman.

Tyria was well aware of that and spent her time penetrating various private party invitations and transaction distribution networks.

She, who doesn’t show her emotions very well, even spat out such words.

– It was a banquet with a lot of income. I’m satisfied.

I mean.

“young master! The carriage is here!”

The return was by carriage as scheduled.

There was a desire to take Tyria on the train one more time and see her embarrassed, but Elric quickly gave up the joke, thinking that if he did so, he would hear a level of resentment he couldn’t handle.

The moment she climbed into the carriage, Tyria began to make a face that was much less energetic, probably because she was not happy with the clattering carriage.

I stare intently at that face.

Then, the heart that he faced with Elbus’ proposal, still unable to properly define its true intentions, stretched.

I don’t want to leave her side.

Such an embarrassing thought aroused Elric’s shyness that he had never felt before in this silence.

“Then let’s go!”

With R.D.O’s voice, ‘Puhihing!’ A roar broke the silence.

At that moment, Tyria said.

“… Now we are going back to our house.”

From noble mtl dot com

The word ‘we’ becomes a ripple and spreads ripples in the mind.

Elric responded with a small smile as he felt it tickled and welcomed.

“exactly. I want to go back to my house.”

As he chewed and chewed and savored the taste, Elric’s mood was quite refreshing.

The Duke of Wight of Armin Kingdom.

There was a man sitting in the dressing room of the grand banquet hall somewhere in that huge mansion, reading the newspaper.

None other than goldsmith Edward Wight.

He clicked his tongue and parted his lips.

“Hey, have you seen this stupid human?”

The newspaper he read was none other than the eastern daily newspaper that stirred up Ferdin Kingdom.

“Assassinate Elbus Graham? Even in Ferdin where the elderly are? This guy is also very simple.”

“How many of you know that?”

“It’s more of a problem not knowing. Isn’t that proof of incompetence?”

Edward dismissed the secretary’s words and added an explanation.

“This is why Alton can’t do it. No, to be precise, he must be someone who can’t be eaten.”

“Yes, the natural interests of the kingdom of Alton.”

“Wolyeong is also very pitiful. If you’re like me, I’ll retire from the industry as soon as I know that it’s the mojiri that controls the people behind the scenes.”

One of the seven great powers on the continent.

The shadow of the king who protects the kingdom of Alton.

There was one fact that even the citizens of the continent and most of Wolyeong’s top officials did not know.

It is the fact that it is Ramses Alton, Alton’s natural interest, that leads Wolyeong from behind.

It was a fact that Edward did not like very much.

This was true even though his aims were more or less in line with his own.

The secretary pointed it out.

“Still, wouldn’t the war have been prolonged if the heavenly wing’s plan had succeeded?”

“You stupid secretary. If the war goes all the way to the East, there will be problems with supply. that the economy is completely destroyed. Then all my money is gone, but I have to protect that side. Above all, when the war spreads to the east, the elders intervene in the war. Where’s the bigger accident than that? At first glance, you seem to be satisfied with your nursing life, but the elderly are helping me by being stuck there.”

“Is that so.”

“Anyway, it’s short-lived. Our secretary friend.”

“I will resign.”

“It’s my fault.”

good!

Edward folded the paper and stood up.

“Stop talking about this. Let’s go see a face soon.”

“Yes, all the big shareholders have gathered.”

“Yes, yes, it should look good.”

Edward let out a deep sigh.

Originally, he did not invite shareholders, who were his source of money, but the situation was different today.

“Are you ready for the investment briefing session?”

“Perfectly done.”

“Have you checked your appetite and allergies?”

“We have one exclusive chef assigned to each person.”

“As expected, there is only our secretary.”

Edward left the dressing room with a smile.

Today was the day of an investment briefing session to attract development costs for new inventions that have been envisioned.

If it was a moderate amount of research, I would have done it with the money I had saved… This time, the scale was different from other times, and external funds were needed.

At times like this, there was one thing that made me sad.

‘If there were a little more friendship stakes, it wouldn’t have caused such an uproar every time it was announced.’

Even if a corporation is the one who makes the agenda, it is the shareholders who have the right to decide.

Research that they don’t like will be destroyed without even starting by the principle of majority rule.

For Edward, it was blood-curdling.

Currently, the share of friendship that gives absolute support to Edward is about 47%.

With just 3.1% more, I could really move freely.

No, if he supported himself with just 5% more for a sense of security, he would certainly be able to ignore the opinions of the remaining shareholders.

The more he thought about it, the more regretful Edward asked the secretary a question, as he did at any investment briefing.

“Is that person here?”

“Speaking of that person… .”

“Why, that man who swallowed 6% of our shares and never showed his face until now.”

“Oh, you mean KS.”

“Damn it, what kind of initials are you using?”

“You are the Lord.”

“Anyway, you didn’t come out? Oh, just try to come out. Just sure!”

“sudden?”

“Crawling on all fours and rubbing my head against the soles of my feet!”

“You are ugly.”

“You can become ugly in front of the Lord.”

It’s not just a shareholder, but if it’s a joker card that will definitely bring you this dangerous management right, can’t you do more than that?

Edward pursed his lips and straightened his expression at the banquet hall door in the distance.

That was the moment.

“The President of EW, Duke Edward Wight, is entering!”

Hearing the loud voice of the employee announcing his appearance, Edward stood in front of the shareholders with a confident expression as usual.

“hello. Shareholders! The genius of this era who will be in charge of your safe! Edward Wight is here!”

It was an attitude that could have been frivolous, but what he accomplished soon became a glimmer, turning frivolity into cheerfulness.

Applause from shareholders echoed everywhere.

Edward slowly rolled his eyes and found two people who were called the largest shareholders among them.

‘Okay, first of all, our demon lord sent an agent as usual.’

Might as well ignore this one.

Then the other… .

“hey! Unskillful!”

… You did it yourself, too.

Edward artificially raised a bright smile.

“Sister Ygret! How much is this!”

Edward opened his arms and began to run lightly.

At the end of it was a dwarf woman with long, red hair that reached down to her hips.

White skin, full of freckles, thick dark circles and scarlet irises that make them stand out.

tell me what to do

She is the siege weapon of the Calbaran Kingdom.

It was Ygret Chloride from the 7th lecture.

“Where are you going to cuddle?!”

Kwap!

Her outstretched foot hit Edward right in the groin.

“Keep it off!”

It’s a shame that he came wearing a protective gear, but the Wight family’s line was almost cut off.

Ygret, knowing or not, giggled and slapped Edward on the shoulder.

“How long has this guy been? Where are you hanging around like that?”

“Hey what… I was busy with work.”

“These days, everyone lives a very busy life because of war. Annoying.”

She licked her lips.

It was something to know.

Isn’t she the one who doesn’t go to the battlefield with her unique witticism despite using a heinous level of scorched earth magic?

Edward suddenly remembered the past.

There was an incident where she, who hadn’t even turned her head toward the battlefield for nearly a year, suddenly went to the battlefield.

– Has Kasha gone? why? why?

That was the disappearance of the sword demon Kasha.

How much Ygret was screaming that day.

– Why! Where did he go?! Aaaaaaa!!!

It was a resentment created by her small stature.

On the day the two met on the battlefield, Kasha mistook her for a child because of Igret’s small stature and kicked her in the butt to knock her out.

It was not too long ago that Ygret broke into the siege of Chevor’s capital, saying he would destroy everything he had guarded.

It was Ygret’s question that awakened Edward’s mind.

“By the way, you still don’t know about Kasha? ok? Didn’t I ask you to find out?”

Ygret asked in a threatening tone.

Edward thought of Kasha, whom he would hang out with at Wibin Mansion.

‘I get along well with my wife hahahoho.’

can you say

At that moment, this ill-tempered woman would go straight to the East to turn the East into a sea of fire.

“I’m still fine… Uh-huh.”

“Eh, useless bastard.”

Ygret chewed on his nails.

Edward kept his mouth shut.

‘There is no obsession like this even if it’s very obsession.’

What’s the point of being so angry that it’s just a kick in the butt?

That’s why I can’t grow things that are finely grown.

Edward kept repeating to himself what he shouldn’t say to a major shareholder who owns 10% of the shares.
