Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 148

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 148]

Chapter 186 Forming a Cabinet

Garnier’s bones seemed to be scattered. He collapsed to the ground, collapsed, sweat dripping all over him, and it seemed that he was the one who was hurt the most.

“Charle, I…” Garnier turned over.

“Oh—” Charles threw a blanket at him.

Garnier quickly wrapped it around his waist: “Hey.”

“the first time?”

“I never thought it would be like this.” Garnier sighed.

“I heard that the noble family will make you mature early and let you practice with teenage maids.”

“Father doesn’t like this, he’s worried that I’ll leave the wild seed.” Garnier panted, picked up the water glass, and found that it was wine, so he put it back.

“It feels great.”

Garnier was ashamed to talk about it and buried his face in the blanket.

“You find a place to wash yourself, get out.” Charles sent him away.

“Hey, hey.” Garnier sighed and left happily, the room was full of odors, and he would never forget this noon in his life.

Wash away the tenderness and ignorance, and he will grow up from now on.

Dear Lord Rene, am I doing the right thing?

The door opened lightly, and Ciel saw Sirin.

“Oh.” Charles played with the cup in his hand, “Good afternoon.”

“You made a mess.” She looked calm.

“Sorry.” Charles shrugged, “How are you feeling?”

“I’m not that patient anymore.” Xilin rolled up her skirt and greeted Ciel, “Please treat me like a normal person.”

“It’s my fault.” Ciel also got up to perform the etiquette of reciprocity, bending slightly, “Is there any news recently?”

“Alberta.”

“Except for this.” Having heard enough of Lord Rene’s death, whenever people mentioned it, he would think of the Count’s corpse, unrecognizable, fat and blood gushing out.

“Duke Ruiwei assembles the Rain Bay Hall Council.”

“Beyond politics.”

“A girl from a brothel eloped with a dock worker.”

“Not so personal.”

“Sandals imported from Yamauchi are trending.”

Charles noticed her feet, sandals made of white leather with rounded toes: “It suits you.”

“Stop complimenting me.” Xilin disagreed.

Ciel looked out, and the girls kept their voices low when they passed by, not wanting to disturb Sirin.

“You seem to have a great position here.” Ciel guessed.

“I’m learning how to run this place.”

“Calusson is handing over the property to you.” Charles was curious about this. Calusson retreated behind the scenes, and his figure became more and more hidden. He couldn’t remember the last time he saw Calusson.

Xilin didn’t want to talk about this, she wanted to turn around and leave.

“Excuse me, I want to ask, what about the other children of Caluson?” Charles asked curiously.

“I also have an older brother on the west coast and an older sister in Qinghe.” Xilin said, “My father dismantled his empire.”

“Peace to you.” This part is sincere.

“…” Xilin was not interested in Ciel’s blessing and left quickly.

She’s wary of me, she doesn’t seem to like me very much, which is weird.

She seems like a merciless person, but what can I ask of others?

Ciel shrugged, he couldn’t force others to give him a good look, let’s just let it be.

When Garnier came back, his whole personality changed.

Since Rene’s death, Garnier had looked sullen, sullen, and even a little panicked, but now he’s changed from head to toe, firm, confident, and alive, smiling and as approachable as ever. .

“Charle.” He opened his arms and hugged Charles tightly.

I don’t like hugging half-naked men.

Charles patted Garnier on the shoulder symbolically: “You look much better.”

“Phew.” Garnier clenched his fists, “I see.”

“Understand what?”

“The blood of the Alberta family is surging in my heart. I will inherit the glory of my ancestors and inherit this vast land calmly and confidently.” Garnier said firmly, “No one else will be allowed to look down on us.”

“Never let go of the murderer of Rene, the traitorous and evil party of the Seal of Heatris, once you consolidate your rule, you must immediately start arresting.”

“I know that I will swear to the god of vengeance, Vig, that I will never rest until I destroy them.” Garnier was tenacious.

“Very good.” Ciel nodded, “Hunter Sanctuary will not condone them to continue to breed demons and perform dark sorcery in the countryside.” Easier said than done, a high-ranking rank of the same level as that undead, that half-demon There are still two or three warlocks, but I am the only one who has enough fighting power in the temple.

“Let’s go, I’ll treat you to lunch. My mood has never been clearer than it is now.” Garnier nodded, “I will form my territory cabinet and unite my staff.”

“Cabinet… What kind of candidates do you have in mind?” Lords usually select reliable people to serve themselves, take charge of various affairs of the territory, and also negotiate major events.

“My father didn’t pay attention to personnel, the cabinet positions have been vacant for a long time, and now I want to change all that. I will promote Mayor Mathert to be treasurer, and Grand Priest Paul and I confirm each other’s position, Adrian of Lanior Loyal to me, I will let him follow me as military director, Mr. Orland will continue to be foreign affairs director, he has been stationed in Rain Bay Hall for a long time to maintain our influence with the Duke’s House, and let Sarah Congying As a wizard advisor. And… Finally, Ciel, I want you to be my intelligence chief.” Garnier said earnestly.

“I’m honored.” Ciel nodded, “But I don’t want to report daily, and I don’t want to be responsible for placing spies. I’m a demon hunter.”

“Intelligence director is an important title. I will send my spies to you. I don’t need you to do much else, as long as you help me find out the mastermind behind the scenes and completely smash the group of dark wizards.” Garnier instructed.

“I hope you don’t lose your life.” Ciel nodded to Garnier. I climbed higher and higher, and the core power of the entire territory seemed within reach. “I have another suggestion.”

“what?”

“Adrian of Lanior, he shouldn’t be your military chief.” Charles felt unhappy when he thought of the arrogant nobleman.

“Otherwise who else? Adrian is a strong general.”

“Rocher,” Charles said.

“Rocher…” Garnier pondered, “No, women can’t enter my cabinet.”

“why?”

“It’s not traditional.”

“Someone spoke ill of her in front of you.” Ciel guessed sharply.

“…” Garnier sighed, “Charle, it really doesn’t work, I just took the throne, and people are talking about it. If at this juncture, I rashly destroy tradition and appoint a woman to accompany me, how will public opinion judge me? worse.”

“Gloomy Castle is very close to Ashtree Hall,” Charles patiently weighed the pros and cons for Garnier, “your father used her very much, but he didn’t give her a reward commensurate with her credit for a long time. As time goes by, she will also feel bad for her. dissatisfied.”

“It’s not that she shouldn’t be used, I don’t need vassals who are not easy to use.” Garnier frowned, “I admit that she has made a lot of contributions, but it’s not worth it.”

“Wrong, vassals can have no lords, but lords can’t have vassals. Roche is excellent in martial arts and has a cold temperament, and is most suitable for leading troops in the Ashtree Hall. And that Adrian of Lanior, he can only Say what you like and push you into the fire pit step by step,” Ciel said.

Garnier stroked the wall, then turned his head: “…Ciel.”

“how?”

“I agree, and I will promote Rocher to the rank of military chief of the realm. But not because she’s good or she’s trustworthy, it’s because of you, Ciel, for your sake, I’ve decided to use her.” Garnier is serious.

“I understand.” This is a favor, well, we have already exchanged enough interests and interests, and it’s okay to have more.

They returned to the Alberta castle, and Garnier quickly called a meeting to gather the cabinet candidates he had in mind.

Mayor Mathert, with two brown beards and a plump figure, was excited about Garnier’s canonization: “I will never forget your kindness, Lord Garnier.”

“You have to deal with those bad debts for my father, those loans, and let them know that it is best to pay them back.” Garnier was firm.

“Yes.” Mathert was a little worried, but nodded anyway.

“You have always been my father’s friend, and that friendship will last forever.” Garnier turned to Paul.

The Grand Priest bowed kindly to Garnier. His belly was twice the size of Mathert’s. God knows what he usually eats: “The gods bless your rule.”

“Mr. Draco gives you the power and wand, and I trust his decision,” Garnier said to Sarah.

“Yes.” Sarah responded briefly, as if thinking about something else.

When Orland, the foreign affairs chief, was away, Garnier nodded to Ciel: “And our master hunter, who will be the chief intelligence officer in the new cabinet.”

“I will bring the assassin to justice and comfort Lord Rene,” Ciel promised.

“Rocher, as the military chief, you will be in charge of all military affairs in Ashtree Hall,” Garnier said to Rocher.

“I will go to the battlefield for your victory.” Rocher greeted Garnier.

“I originally had a better candidate, Countess, don’t betray my trust in you.” Garnier looked serious.

Roche pondered for a moment, bowed his head and said nothing.

Will she know that I helped her?

Anyway, this is my repayment.

Charles thought to himself.

You once led the troops in the most critical time of the church, now it’s my turn to help you.

Garnier knocked on the table to signal.

The servants brought in a gold-bottomed glass bottle, in which a clear and transparent liquid was rippling.

“Living water in the Fountain Hall,” Garnier announced.

Ciel looked around at everyone present, and people’s eyes changed more or less.

He himself didn’t expect Garnier to share it, and he thought he was going to miss the winning prize.

Garnier filled them with small glasses himself.

“Our time has begun,” announced Garnier de Alberta.

Chapter 187 Kindness

Garnier generously shared the living water, which won the favor of the important ministers around him. After regaining his vitality, he talked about the future plans of the Ash Tree Hall with a fast pace, and introduced the many ideas and plans in his mind to the people one by one.

The scribes were called together to diligently record Garnier’s words, write his political blueprint into specific orders, and later people would write a biography for Garnier. These are all important historical materials.

“We will expand the scale of the seaport, and the deep-water port will provide opportunities for ocean shipping. Build city walls, demolish those illegal buildings near the city walls, reinforce defenses, and build granaries. Now it seems to be a period of peace, but once the war breaks out, what will be done? It’s too late. Limbenburg and we will ensure each other’s independence from the domination of any foreign nobles, as long as the Duke of Ruiwei does not interfere with my succession, we will respect the rule of the Duke of Ruiwei.” Garnier talked eloquently.

“That’s it.”

“very good.”

“That’s right.” Ciel didn’t expect that one day he would agree, but he really didn’t have any good suggestions for the time being.

“Now, I must send a letter to Duke Ruiwei to introduce the truth of the ‘murder’, the evil assassin is someone else, and my innocence must be revealed.” Garnier said sadly, “I will be in the revenge god of Perseverance. Confess in front of Vig.”

The political topics you talked about before are all good, but repentance… it’s better not to do that, the god of vengeance especially hates killing relatives, even if it’s an accident, although the gods are currently troubled by the king of darkness, but it seems that There is room to punish disrespectful mortals. I have seen miracles more than once. What if you are destroyed in front of the idols?

I’ll have to ask Gina’s health then, Ciel thought to himself.
