Chapter 473 Royal Envoys?
473 Royal Envoys
Three days later...
After the meeting with Vicente and Newton, the professor met Cesar again the next day after he had seen and felt the current situation of the most extreme case he had ever encountered.
He was shocked to see Vicente's three pentagrams and imagined how strong this young man would be in the future.
But he didn't discover that Vicente and Cesar were the same person, although he had noticed that Don Mazzanti's magical foundation was also unstable.
He had expected this from Cesar since this mercenary had progressed quickly through the 2nd stage. So Newton repeated his advice, telling Vicente again that he should work more slowly to solidify his foundation.
He also recommended that Vicente's next pentagram should be a Cyan one. That would require Vicente to travel outside the Seidel Kingdom, as there were no animals with this type of essence in that area.
After this meeting, Newton talked about the next time he would see Cesar before he left for Saltstar City, where he would live and work for the next few years.
With that, Vicente returned to his business, dealing with the problems and situations in his two houses and working on the forge at Benson's house.
Nothing important happened locally, so he peacefully spent three days between these three residences.
But two days after Newton's departure, important people arrived in Millfall!
...
A group of ten luxurious carriages and many men on horseback entered Millfall's main avenue, moving at a moderate speed toward the center of town.
Many people in the streets stopped to watch the convoy pass, with some wealthy locals noting the origin of these vehicles from the symbols on the carriages.
'This is the royal shield!' A wealthy local merchant saw the carriage in the middle of the convoy and noticed the royal envoys' vehicle.
'It is finally time to get a position from the king...' Another wealthy local, someone who aspired to the title of Baron, thought to himself as he saw the convoy of carriages with several Mages among the passengers.
As the citizens thought and talked about the new arrivals, the speed of the carriages slowed as they approached the Martial Court building.
Meanwhile, inside the main carriage of this group, a woman and two men sat looking out the carriage windows, observing the city to which the king had commanded them to bring his words.
They were all High-level Mages, but the youngest of them, the black-haired woman, was the group's leader.
She said. "Let's resolve this situation quickly. I don't want to stay here for more than one night. Warn the local nobles and the candidates for the positions of Viscount and Baron. I'll announce His Majesty's decisions later today."
The group's purpose was to bring the king's word and make the promotion of two local families official.
In addition, the new head of the city's army had been elected and was in one of the group's carriages to attend the event that the woman had planned.
"We'll make it quick, Your Highness." The two men said at the same time.
Standing before them was none other than the First Princess of the Seidel Kingdom, King Seidel's eldest daughter, Lina Seidel!
As soon as Lina's two companions answered, they left the carriage while the rest of the convoy was already stopped in front of the Martial Court.
There, a group of members of the Martial Court, dressed in their special uniforms, were waiting for Lina's group, properly profiled according to their positions.
The Martial Court in the city of Millfall had 6 members with judge positions and 20 guards, so they could all easily fit in front of their building.
But there were also the soldiers who had come to look after the local battalion, the group that had recently come from the capital to investigate the city's problems.
When they saw the princess get out of her carriage, everyone in the area bowed their heads to officially welcome Lina to Millfall.
"Your Highness, welcome to Millfall." The temporary commander of the local post and a 2nd stage judge said simultaneously.
At the same time, the nobles and soldiers who had arrived in the other nine carriages of the convoy watched in silence while also gesturing in respect to Lina.
In addition to Lina and her two companions on this mission, Duke Scott, two Marquises, 4 Counts, and 6 Viscounts were in the newly arrived group, there to witness the audience that Lina would lead for the next few hours.
Not every promotion within the noble hierarchy had to occur in the capital. Only a few nobles were welcomed by the king in his palace, where he threw a party and spoke words of congratulation from his own mouth.
Such a thing was expensive and had to be prepared weeks in advance. Given Millfall's situation and the king's rush to choose the new Viscount and Baron of the province, he couldn't wait for these people to travel to his city.
That's why the promotion of these two families would take place in Millfall under the command of Lina, the king's voice in this place.
"I hope the journey here was tranquil, Your Highness." The commander, who had come from the capital to take care of things in Millfall, said as he smiled at the princess.
"Yes, it wasn't bad," Lina said as she walked towards the inside of the Martial Court building. "Meanwhile, your local passage was a disaster, Adrian. I didn't think someone of your stature would be so incompetent."
"I apologize for my recent inefficiency, Your Highness." Adrian didn't complain despite Lina's 'jab.'
But then the Duke of the Province intervened on his behalf. "Your Highness, it's not the fault of Commandant Warner and his group. The recent situation in the province and Millfall seems to be quite complicated. It's not surprising that he and his group have shown poor efficiency in their mission."
Lina looked at the old Duke, a former companion of her father's in the royal army. "You're probably right, old Scott. Anyway, I'm not here to judge Adrian or the local soldiers."
She looked at the three people around her and said. "Organize what's necessary to resolve the local situation. I will promote Cora to lead the local battalion along with the appointment of the new Viscount and Baron. If all goes well, I'll leave at dawn."
"Yes, Your Highness." Adrian, the leader of the Martial Court in Millfall and a royal secretary, left immediately after Lina's order, hurrying to settle the matter quickly.
She looked at the nobles around her and said. "You have two hours to do what you want. After that, you must return and take your seats in the main courtroom of this Martial Court. You will be my witnesses."
Several of the nobles who had accompanied her here left immediately after her words, leaving behind only three young nobles who had been newly promoted after the death of their fathers.
Being close to the princess was rare, so they didn't want to miss this opportunity!
She was not only beautiful but also single, available for marriage, and capable of conceiving the king's grandchildren.
Achieving this would be incredible because she was beautiful, but it would also put any nobleman on the king's side. As ambitious young men full of desire, these three soon began to court the beautiful Lina.
